Chapter 20: The Old Man of Ten Thousand Poisons
Elder Hua came to the room where Lin Yan was housed and pushed the door in. Although she had thought of this result for a long time, when she saw it with her own eyes, her heart was still violently shaken, and her eyes were full of disbelief.
"This person really woke up?" Elder Hua blinked, hiding the shock in his heart. In fact, on that day, she had already seen that there was only the last half of this person's breath left, and she said at that time that this person might wake up, which was completely to comfort Zhuqing.
"I really didn't expect it...... This man has such a tenacious life. Elder Hua muttered to himself.
After waking up, Lin Yan found that he was in an unfamiliar environment, but there was not much panic on his face. He knew in his heart that he was here, probably because of Zhuqing.
It wasn't where he was right now, and he needed a sip of cool fresh water to soothe his throat that seemed to burst. When he saw the door that was pushed open, and the woman standing at the door who seemed to be talking to herself, his eyes swept over instantly, and he secretly thought in his heart that this woman must have saved his life. Although he was desperate for fresh water, he couldn't lose his courtesy, and immediately shouted: "Thank you seniors for saving your life." ”
Elder Hua's eyes narrowed slightly, he gathered his mind, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth and said, "Being able to wake up is completely your creation." ”
"The two poisons in your body have been temporarily suppressed by me. But if it breaks out again, the chances of you waking up are slim. Elder Hua walked up to Lin Yan and said with a sigh: "Although I am also proficient in toxicology, the two poisons in your body have very strange origins, and they should have been deliberately refined by someone. Unless I know how this person refines, I will also be powerless. ”
Lin Yan's eyes flashed, and he secretly investigated, and found that as the woman said, the two poisons in the body were just temporarily latent.
"There is one thing here, and one poison in the body is related to it. Lin Yan suddenly remembered the centipede he had put away when he was leaving, and couldn't help blurting out.
"Huh?" Elder Hua had a look of surprise on his face, and then his lips opened slightly, "Take it and take a look." ”
"Good. Lin Yan immediately took out a wooden box with his backhand, handed it to Elder Hua, and reminded at the same time: "This thing is still alive, seniors be careful." ”
Elder Hua nodded slightly, but he didn't care much in his heart, he was a genuine Spiritual Silence period monk, and a mere poison seemed to be able to hurt her.
Elder Hua took the wooden box and immediately opened it to see a pitch-black centipede the thickness of a thumb writhing in it.
The centipede was also a ferocious thing, and the moment the wooden box was opened, the lower limbs and feet of the body slid rapidly, crawling towards the woman's jade hand.
Lin Yan was shocked, and just wanted to remind. How do you know that the woman stretched out a slender jade ~ finger earlier and pointed at the centipede's head.
I saw that the centipede's body suddenly froze, and then writhed wildly in the wooden box, as if it had suffered great pain. After a few moments, the centipede stopped writhing and was apparently dead.
Elder Hua took a closer look.
Lin Yan saw the woman staring at the centipede with both eyes on the side, but he didn't expect a solemn look on the woman's face. Seeing this, Lin Yan's heart couldn't help sinking, and a bad feeling came to his heart.
Don't......
After a while, Elder Hua covered the wooden box and let out a long breath and said, "This thing has already been refined by many poisons eating each other, so it has mottled toxicity in its body, and if you want to use it to refine the Detoxification Pill, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve." ”
With a look of disappointment in his eyes, Lin Yan took the wooden box and asked, "Is there no solution to the two kinds of poisons in Xia~?"
Elder Hua's brows furrowed suddenly, and a deep groan appeared on his face. After a while, her eyes looked at Lin Yan, who had a faint hint of eagerness between her eyebrows, and said, "It's not that I didn't find it at all. ”
A flash of joy flashed in Lin Yan's eyes, and he asked eagerly, "Please also tell the seniors." ”
But when he saw Elder Hua's expression, the joy in his eyes instantly dissipated: "Is there something wrong?"
Elder Hua glanced at Lin Yan, and secretly said in his heart, compared to refining the detoxification pill, this method may be difficult to achieve, and then said in a loud voice: "This is also a method that is not a way. ”
"It's okay for the seniors to say, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, you have to try it anyway. Lin Yan clasped his hands into fists and said earnestly.
Elder Hua's eyes narrowed slowly, his gaze looked directly at Lin Yan who lowered his head and clenched his fists, and said slowly: "Since this is the case, then I will tell." ”
"Thank you, seniors. Lin Yan raised his head and looked at Elder Hua and said.
"Have you ever heard of the name of the Ten Thousand Poison Old Man?"
"Ten thousand poisonous old man?" Lin Yan kept thinking about it in his mind, and then shook his head, and at the same time secretly said in his heart, could this person be able to dissolve the two poisons in his body?
"Would you like to let me know?"
"This man is a well-known monk in the Frontier. This person is not only a spiritual monk, but also has an extraordinary poisonous skill, even if he meets a Jindan monk, he can deal with it. ”
"But he is best known for having a poisonous cicada that feeds on poison. Except for a few that are highly poisonous, the rest of this cicada is its food. ”
Elder Hua glanced at Lin Yan and continued, "If you can find this person, you may be able to let him use that poisonous Gu Cicada to suck out the two poisons in your body." ”
"Listening to the words of the seniors, this poisonous Gu cicada must be very precious to the venomous old man. ”
Elder Hua nodded and said, "You're right, there are rumors that all his poisonous skills are related to that poisonous Gu Cicada. Therefore, the old monster was also very tight on this poisonous Gu Cicada, and few people had seen it. I happen to be one of those people. ”
"In addition, the old monster has a perverse personality and cruel methods, and his whereabouts are erratic, so I said that this is not the way to do it. ”
Lin Yan's face was extremely ugly, if this was the case, this method was really not a solution.
Lin Yan frowned, his eyes narrowed into a slit, his heart was fluctuating at this moment, this woman has no need to lie to me. The Ten Thousand Poisonous Old Man was a Spiritual Monk, and he was a consecrated monk himself, and he went to ask for the poisonous Gu Cicada, and if he didn't handle it properly, he would inevitably attract the anger of the Ten Thousand Poisonous Old Man. To go is to die for a lifetime. But if you don't go...... That's ten deaths!
Lin Yan immediately made a decision, hugged his fist at the woman and said, "Please ask the seniors for advice." ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Elder Hua's eyes, he originally thought that this person would be terrified after hearing this, and he couldn't help but underestimate this person's courage in the secret way in his heart, but ...... That's it, for the sake of the young girl, I don't mind helping this person more.
"Now that you've made up your mind, I'll help you a little more. After speaking, Elder Hua took out a palm-sized wooden plaque with his backhand.
Lin Yan took the token, his eyes staring.
"Oh my God!"
"What is this?" asked Lin Yan curiously.
"It's something that can help you find the traces of the poisonous old man. Elder Hua said slowly: "You take this thing and go to Juxian City............
"Remember what I said. ”
"The words of the predecessors must be taken to heart in the future. Lin Yan put away the wooden card and said with a fist of gratitude.
"Alright, that's it. Since you have woken up, there is no need to stay here, go back to your residence and wait for three days, and I will ask Zhuqing to bring you an elixir that temporarily suppresses the poison in your body. Elder Hua immediately issued an order to expel the guests.
"The kindness of the predecessors is remembered in my heart. Lin Yan immediately got up from the couch and hugged his fists with a sincere expression.
Elder Hua just nodded lightly and turned to leave. As she left, she glanced at Lin Yan behind her, who was still bowing and clenching her fists, and said to herself in a voice that only she could hear: "This person is going this time, I'm afraid there is death or life." With the temperament of the young girl, it is not easy to have a good impression of a person...... It's a pity. ”
After a moment's effort, Elder Hua had already walked out of the room.
As Elder Hua left, Lin Yan straightened up, his brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of a deep groan appeared in his eyes.
After a few breaths, Lin Yan immediately walked towards the door.
Lin Yan quickly came outside, looked back at the pavilion behind him, and suddenly felt a hot sensation in his throat, and then remembered that he had forgotten to ask for a sip of water.
Lin Yan shook his head with a hint of helplessness in his eyes, it seemed that now was not the time to care about thirst, but the poisonous old man in the woman's mouth!
"Even if you can find the traces of the poisonous old man, but if you want to get the poisonous Gu cicada from him, I'm afraid...... It's a lot of difficulty. As soon as Lin Yan thought of the woman's description of the poisonous old man, he couldn't help but feel a pang of irritability in his heart. If there was any other way, he really didn't want to face a monk who had been famous for a long time.
"For now, let's go back to our residence first, so that we can make a plan. A moment later, a hint of determination flashed in Lin Yan's eyes. Then he stopped staying outside the pavilion and strode away.
The location of this pavilion was remote, and it took Lin Yan a lot of time to find the place where he lived before. However, he didn't go back immediately, but went to the pavilion where Elder Tie was first.
When Lin Yan saw Elder Tie again, the old man's body was already filled with death, and he knew in his heart that this old man was about to come to the end of his life.
"Elder Iron. Lin Yan bowed down and clenched his fists and shouted.
This soft cry seemed to wake up the old man who was taking a nap. The old man opened his eyes tiredly, his gaze cloudy.
"You're back. ”
Lin Yan heard a hint of joy in the old man's weak voice, and he had an inexplicable intuition in his heart, as if the old man had been waiting for his arrival.
"What does the elder command, as long as he can do it below, he will definitely live up to his trust!" Lin Yan glanced at the old man and said in a deep voice.
"Before he died, he had one thing in his heart, and he hoped that Taoist friends could help. ”
"Elder, please. ”
............
Lin Yan saw the body in front of him that was gradually becoming cold, and said in a low voice without any expression on his face: "Elder don't worry, your last wish will definitely be fulfilled in the next place." ”
On this day, an old man passed away quietly in this pavilion......
