Chapter 62: The White-bearded Old Man



The youthful excitement that had been hidden in Bai Hengqiu's heart for many years was aroused again, and the scene in the peach forest reappeared.

He was left alone in this quiet peach forest, but the woman with laughter and joy was no longer there. Seeing Bai Hengqiu was silent again, Lin Jiuxi relaxed his shoulders, looked at the little medicine boy beside him, pulled him over in a familiar manner, and whispered, "Does the Valley Master often do this?"

The little medicine boy raised his head slightly and glanced at Bai Hengqiu, then immediately stopped lowering his head and said nothing.

Why are you still such a taciturn person?

How boring.

Lin Jiuxi just wanted to ask himself whether he had passed the second level, why did he become like this? How boring.

Just as he was about to get up and leave, Bai Hengqiu suddenly spoke.

"You, can you speak?"

Lin Jiuxi's mood just now was as if she had walked into hell. The scene before her was described in only one word in her mind: horror.

No one paid any attention to her no matter how she shouted.

What does it mean to be and not be?

Lin Jiuxi was speechless and asked, "What did you mean by that?"

"Jiuxi, are you really willing to pay these consequences to save someone?"

After passing the camellia, they saw a row of houses. Lin Jiuxi was a little surprised and muttered, "I've been in Saint Medical Valley for a few days, but this is the first time I've seen so many rooms. What is this place?"

"Who else is here besides you?"

This time, Lin Jiuxi no longer took the same route, but took another path under the setting sun.

Moreover, she believed that this man would not be like some men who would marry concubines just because she was not around. If that was the case, she could guarantee that she would never appear in front of Nangong Jing again. Her philosophy was of course the same as that of new-age women, monogamy, and there was no such thing as the husband being the leader.

This is Lin Jiuxi's personality. She is not someone who is content with the status quo, especially in a place like this where there is no connection with the outside world.

They looked miserable, happy, expressionless, or pale as if they had lost all hope in life...

Is that right? She felt itchy inside.

Bai Hengqiu didn't say anything, and the little medicine boy beside him also picked up the tea on the table and left. Lin Jiuxi said angrily, "Are you asking me to leave?"

Hmm? The third level? "What is the third level trial?"

When Lin Jiuxi saw Old Hu Zi, he quickly ran over and said, "Grandpa, that man, that man, is bleeding from all seven of his orifices, come and have a look!"

Lin Jiuxi stood in front of a wooden barrel, looking at the head sticking out, and could only roughly guess that the man should not be very old.

Look in the direction of Lin Jiuxi's finger.

Although he is an old man, he does not tremble or stagger when he walks. Instead, he is as energetic as a middle-aged man.

"Him? Oh, never mind!"

Lin Jiuxi frowned slightly, not quite understanding what Bai Hengqiu meant. "Uncle Master, did I pass or not?"

Bai Hengqiu had asked this question once before, but after the trials of the past few days, he became a little uncertain as he looked at Lin Jiuxi, whose personality was more lively than Bai Xiaodie's.

Bai Hengqiu looked at the determined Lin Jiuxi and suddenly thought to himself, if he had been so determined at the beginning, Xiaodie would not have left him. He waved his hand to let Lin Jiuxi leave, and he used Qinggong to go to the peach forest.

"The first level of illusion is not a test of the second level, but you were able to get out of it within a few days, so it can still be considered a test!"

Passing through a large field of camellia, Lin Jiuxi enjoyed the scenery he had never seen before and was in a very happy mood.

Judging from the movement of his lips, he seems to want to speak.

After resting in the room for a whole day, Lin Jiuxi couldn't stay any longer. He felt like there were thousands of hands grabbing him, and he wanted to pass the third level immediately so that he could leave here quickly.

If she was really asked to stay in Saint Medical Valley for five years, would she be able to calm down? Would she be able to stay here peacefully? He was not sure at this moment.

Everything in Shengyi Valley is so beautiful. There are no worldly troubles, and everything is peaceful and tranquil. The more this is the case, the easier it is to want to go out and try your luck.

The two words "Jiuqi" sounded very pleasant when they came out of his mouth, just like the cry of a goshawk. I thought the cry sounded unpleasant, but it was very special.

Lin Jiuxi was puzzled and could only go back to his room.

No, to be precise, it is more like a wooden barrel made of many wooden barrel heads, and there is a human head sticking out of each barrel.

"Why not? The person I want to save is my beloved. What if I stay here for five years for him?"

Lin Jiuxi was so slow to react when he saw this scene, and in his panic he only thought of Bai Hengqiu and didn't even think of checking this person first.

Lin Jiuxi was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Bai Hengqiu and said, "Uncle Master, are you talking to me?"

But just as Lin Jiuxi finished speaking, he saw a mouthful of black blood spitting out of the man's mouth, and the same black blood flowed from his eyes, ears, and nose.

"Ah... Hey, you, what's wrong with you? Are you okay? Someone, come here, uncle..."

This was the first time Bai Hengqiu called out Lin Jiuxi's name.

Perhaps he heard Lin Jiuxi's shouting, so he came out impatiently, pounding medicine in his hand, with a gleam in his eyes, and shouted: "Who is it? What are you yelling about?"

Then he stepped forward and asked.

Driven by curiosity, Lin Jiuxi jumped over. She had only seen the house before entering, but the scene in front of her shocked her. There were many jars placed on the open space in front of the house.

Bai Hengqiu poured the cold tea into the flowers beside him and said with a faint smile: "This will depend on the third level!"

Lin Jiuxi asked without thinking.

Lin Jiuxi firmly believed that Nangong Jing would wait for her.

After a while, an old man with white hair and a beard covering his mouth walked out from the row of houses.

The old man's white beard trembled slightly as he spoke, but the ruthlessness and indifference in his words surprised Gao Lin Jiuxi.

"But, but old man, isn't Saint Medical Valley known as..."

"Where are you from, little girl?"

Old Huzi didn't listen to Lin Jiuxi's words and interrupted to ask his own question. Lin Jiuxi swallowed and said, "My mother is Bai Xiaodie! Did you know?"

She originally wanted to give her own name, but when the words came to her lips, she thought that Old Huzi would definitely not know her name, so she might as well say Bai Xiaodie's name.
