Chapter 22 On the Qingcheng Mountain
Chapter 22 Qingcheng Mountain
The two braved the drizzle, stepped on the slippery stone steps, staggered all the way back to the Taoist temple, and before they approached the mountain gate, they saw a group of people running towards them, a little Taoist priest ran in front, and shouted happily while running: "Uncle Shi is back, Uncle Shi is back." "It seems that there are really a lot of people waiting for his news here in the mountain gate, and they are also very worried about him.
Murong Chen put Jingyuan down, and he helped Jingyuan towards the crowd. A group of people immediately surrounded Jingyuan and began to ask questions non-stop. Murong Chen quietly walked out of the crowd, he still had to buy medicine, by the way, look at Xiao Ruoshui's news, the current situation seems to be very critical, if Xiao Ruoshui didn't hurry up, the entire Qingcheng Mountain would fall into a major crisis, maybe a catastrophe. Thinking of this, his mood became even heavier, and his face became grim, and he sighed, not caring about the appearance of being wet, and rushed down the mountain in three steps and two steps.
Jingyuan answered everyone's questions one by one, and suddenly felt that something was missing around him, he looked around, and vaguely saw a figure running towards the bottom of the mountain, he opened his mouth wide and looked at the distant figure for a long time without speaking.
"Uncle Shi, the three elders have been arranged to rest in the back hall, and your injuries should be healed, hurry up and go to the back hall. Jing Xuan waited for everyone to finish before finally walking up to him and whispering to him.
Jing Yuan heard Jing Xuan speak, so he took his gaze back from Murong Chen's disappearing back, he looked at Jing Xuan as he walked towards the back hall, and asked with concern, "Senior brother, how are they doing?"
"It's not going to be good. The three elders and the only two remaining senior brothers seem to have been poisoned, they have been a little dazed, the two senior brothers have passed out, and the three elders are also struggling to maintain, they can only lie down and talk, and now they have taken some medicine, but the situation is not very good, and we are already trying to find a way to heal it. Uncle Shi, why don't you take a look first? By the way, heal your injuries there, too. Come to Jingxin and help Uncle Shi to go to the back hall. Jing Xuan shook his head as he spoke, he was completely unaware of this situation. I didn't have an idea for a while. He could only wait for Jingyuan to come back, so he kept waiting outside the mountain gate, waiting for Jingyuan to come back.
"I'm out of the way, and I can hold on. Let's go to the back hall. Let's see how they are doing. Jingyuan limped towards the back hall. He didn't let the pure heart help him, because he knew that if he appeared to be seriously injured now. Then everyone on the entire Qingcheng Mountain will fall into a kind of despair, so he can't show weakness, he has to show strong and confident, so that he can boost his morale. This boy has fully matured, after experiencing this test of life and death, he has fully matured, has wisdom and calmness, and has a lot less frizz and impulsiveness.
Along the way, he smiled from time to time with the people who came out to see what was going on, as if nothing had happened. He could already feel from the whispering conversations of the people that fear was spreading, and a sense of fear was permeating the entire Qingcheng Mountain, spreading like a germ.
Walking into the back hall, his forehead was already covered with beads of sweat, and the sweat of the bean was flowing down his face, as soon as he walked into the back hall, he sat on the chair all of a sudden, Jing Xuan waved everyone very clearly, closed the door, he turned around, Jing Yuan was already sitting on the chair and gasping for breath. The three elders were already asleep, and as he stared at them, tears streaming down his face.
Jing Xuan looked at Jing Yuan's appearance, hurriedly stepped forward, and tore off the clothes on Jing Yuan's body, the four blood marks had turned into black scars, and the skin and flesh were turned open, and black water flowed outward. He was shocked, took out a basin, poured boiled licorice water, slowly dipped it in black water with a towel, and cleaned it little by little, until the black water no longer flowed, turning into blood-red blood, he took out the golden medicine and slowly poured it on the wound, and then hugged it with a cotton cloth. The wounds on Jingyuan's feet and abdomen had been carefully cleaned by Jingxuan, and there was no sloppiness at all.
"Uncle Xiao, your wound has been treated, rest first, it is estimated that this poison is very violent, I have carefully treated it with licorice water, there is also a bottle of antidote pills here, you can also eat it, I won't bother, let people tell me if you have any orders." Jing Xuan said cautiously to Jing Yuan.
"Thank you, by the way, you go and inform me, the Qingcheng faction will close the mountain gate from today and no longer accept tourists, visitors and pilgrims. Jingyuan commanded Jingxuan.
"Closing the mountain gate?" Jing Xuan stayed there all of a sudden, closing the mountain gate is something that has never happened in the past few hundred years since the establishment of the Qingcheng faction, even if he was beaten to the mountain, there has never been a matter of closing the mountain gate, because it means that the Qingcheng faction has been completely defeated, and he is unable to manage all the things up and down the Qingcheng Mountain, once it is spread in the martial arts, it is an extremely shameful thing for the reputation.
"Uncle Shi, do you mean to close the mountain gate?" Jing Xuan turned around, his eyes wide and he looked at Jingyuan incredulously.
"Yes, it's the mountain gate. Jingyuan said firmly, his face was grim and sad.
"Uncle Shi, do you want to think about it again, wait for the three elders to wake up, and then discuss it. Jing Xuan whispered, he was reluctant in his heart, but he was not good at disobeying his uncle's orders, so he used the method of delay to postpone this matter temporarily.
"There's no need to discuss, I'll bear all the consequences, and you just need to carry it out. Let's go, I'm going to sleep. He ordered Jing Xuan in an unquestionable tone, without the slightest hint of discussion.
"Alright then, I'll do it. Jing Xuan sighed and reluctantly agreed.
"By the way, that Murong Chen and his friends must be let in when they come, and they must notify me as soon as possible. Jingyuan said to Jingxuan.
"Why, is it possible that our Qingcheng faction is going to rely on them to protect it?" Jing Xuan heard this instruction, and the boss in his heart was unwilling, and he asked Jingyuan puzzled.
"Maybe, maybe this is the fate of our Qingcheng faction. Jingyuan sighed and said something inexplicable, and then stopped talking, he walked to the bed, pulled the quilt out, lay down, his eyes looked out of the window, the window was already ignorant There was a glimmer of dawn, the dawn slowly became brighter and brighter from the horizon, Jingyuan looked at the dawn and couldn't help but start, what was he thinking?
Maybe the most dangerous time is also the best beginning.
"Squeak", Jingxuan closed the door and walked out, his face was full of grief and anger when he walked out, and two lines of tears flowed.
What makes a man cry? Helplessness or shame, maybe both. died before he was born, and the hero was full of tears. That's probably the saddest thing. (To be continued......)
