Lu Ming clenched his fists tightly, his fingertips turned white, and his face looked very ugly. After a long time, he exhaled, forced himself to calm down, and said, "When did I get poisoned by the demon?"
233 looked at Lu Ming's calm face and said timidly, "Not long after you woke up, you were bitten by the demon king. It would have taken a few days for the demon poison to completely erupt, but after you were bitten, you circulated the spiritual energy in your body, which accelerated the time for the poison to erupt. That's why you suffered from lust, and then this and that happened..."
Lu Ming then recalled that the flying insect that landed on his fingertips was actually the Demon Insect King. If he had discovered it earlier, there would probably not be so many troubles. After thinking about it, he realized that it was because he was not careful enough, which allowed the venom to flow into his limbs and bones, and he missed the best time for detoxification, resulting in this irreversible situation.
233 sighed, "Master, it seems you can't escape the fate of being turned gay."
Lu Ming's face became more gloomy. After a moment of silence, he finally spoke: "If this demon poison requires intercourse with a human to be cured, then the target must be a man?"
233 was stunned for a moment before he realized it. That's right, the demon poison doesn't require a man to help him get rid of it, a woman can do it too. It was all because the scene of the master and Sang Wusheng helping each other just now was too eye-catching, he almost forgot that although the demon poison was toxic, if he found a woman to be his Taoist partner and then get rid of the poison, the effect would be the same.
233's worries just now completely disappeared, and he immediately smiled and said: "Master, I will find a beautiful woman for you to be your Taoist partner."
Hearing this, Lu Ming sighed softly, and his eyes became deep. He said softly: "Although I am in a hurry to find a Taoist partner because of the situation, I also hope that you can find a woman for me to spend the rest of my life with. Becoming a Taoist partner with her is not just for temporary use, but just to bring forward future plans. She will be my only wife, and I will love and respect her for the rest of my life and accompany her for the rest of my life."
233 nodded, feeling a little sad. This person had suffered so much, and had lived a difficult life for He Qingci. In the end, it seemed that he was just making things easier for others. Although what Lu Ming encountered was very different from the original novel, it was not all smooth sailing. In the past ten years, in addition to looking for Fu Shu and Jing Mo every day, he had encountered dangers and difficulties. If it were someone else, they might not be able to maintain the same mentality as he did. It seemed that nothing could knock him down.
It's a pity that after all his efforts, he was still deceived by his brother whom he trusted wholeheartedly. If one day Lu Ming knew the truth about his murder in his previous life, the real reason why he was reborn as He Qingci, and that Jing Mo was actually the protagonist Sang Wusheng whom he was avoiding, would he be heartbroken or completely collapse?
233 didn't dare to think any further, but nodded carefully to Lu Ming and said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely find a kind and gentle woman for you to be your Taoist partner."
Lu Ming nodded, and reminded him, "You must not look for a woman who has had any relationship with Sang Wusheng, or even someone who has met him once."
233 nodded quickly and said cautiously: "Master, don't worry about this. According to the protagonist's law, any beautiful woman who has seen the protagonist once will either be taken into the harem by the male protagonist, or will not be able to enter the harem, so she can only think of the male protagonist all her life. In order to prevent you from being cuckolded in the future, I will definitely use my life to carefully select for you!"
Lu Ming: “…” In fact, he was just worried about causing unnecessary trouble and really didn’t think that much about it.
Lu Ming felt relieved and flew away with his spiritual energy. The location of the purple furnace had probably been determined, and he had to hurry up to find the blueprint of the purple furnace. In addition, he had to fulfill his mission to increase his domineering power. The more giant beasts he killed, the better. He would probably be busy in the next few days.
As soon as Lu Ming left, the person hiding in the thick fog had heard all the conversations that had just taken place.
Jing Mo woke up shortly after Lu Ming left and found that the people around him had left. He hurriedly got up, untied the formation that protected him, and chased out of the cave. He finally caught up with his brother and was about to go forward, but was suddenly stopped by this strange conversation. Then he secretly held his breath and eavesdropped on the entire conversation under the cover of the thick fog.
Jing Mo's expression kept changing, and he stared at the gradually disappearing figure in front of him with a cold gaze, without saying a word for a long time. He had a lot of things he wanted to ask him, but he didn't know how to start. What on earth was that animal next to his brother? Why did their conversation involve Sang Wusheng, and from what the animal said, it seemed that it had already determined that it would do something to hurt his brother one day in the future. Could it be that he had done something in the past that made his brother so secretive about his identity as Sang Wusheng?
Jing Mo took a deep breath, and a trace of pain flashed across his eyes. He seemed to have suddenly made up his mind, and his eyes were tinged with a trace of determination. A cold smile appeared on the corner of Jing Mo's mouth, and his eyes were like a deep pool of autumn water, as if they could suck people in. He smiled faintly, and there was no emotion in his voice: "Brother, I will not give you the opportunity to become a Taoist partner with others. No matter who dares to approach you, I will kill her without hesitation."

Lu Ming killed several giant beasts along the way, which was enough to show his extraordinary magic power. He cut the back of the giant beast's neck with a knife, took out the core and put it in the bag, and then flew to the location of the purple furnace blueprint.
According to the information provided by 233, the purple furnace blueprint should be in the southwest of the entire secret realm. It is the only place that is not covered by thick fog. If so, it should be easy to identify.
Sure enough, after searching for nearly two or three hours, Lu Ming finally saw the place described by 233. This place was indeed not covered by thick fog, and everything around was very clear. Countless rare and exotic plants were scattered around, and Lu Ming could only name a few materials. He had to ask 233 to look up the information and put all the precious things into the space ring. Only then did he start to look for the blueprint of the purple furnace.
233 said: "The location of the purple furnace is shown in the blueprint within this range, but you should find it yourself, Master."
Lu Ming nodded and began to look around. The purple furnace blueprint was something left over from ancient times, so it must have been hidden very deep and could not be found easily. Lu Ming thought about it, then took out a magic weapon from the space, closed his eyes, and injected spiritual energy into the magic weapon. The magic weapon immediately emitted a little light and flew in all directions. Although Lu Ming closed his eyes, all the scenes within ten meters around him appeared in front of him. It was as if several video recorders were playing at the same time, and he could see different scenes in various places in a short period of time.
233 was surprised and said, "Master, what kind of magic weapon is this? It looks really good."
Lu Ming smiled faintly and said, "It's just putting countless small mirrors together. Although the process is a bit complicated, it was finally completed a few days ago."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Ming was attracted by a faint light. The light was fleeting, and if Lu Ming had not been so focused, he would not have noticed it at all. He opened his eyes and walked towards the place where the light had just shone, and a very ordinary pale yellow flower suddenly appeared in front of him.
Lu Ming bent down and looked at the flower carefully, then he murmured, "Strange, this Yuanzha flower should only survive on snowy mountains, I didn't expect to see this flower in the Shuize Secret Realm."
233 said, "Any abnormal phenomenon must be accompanied by some unusual reasons. Master, you should dig it up and see what is buried underneath. Maybe there really is something there."
Lu Ming nodded, stretched out his hand to remove the soil around the flower, and then slowly pulled the flower out. At the root, a translucent crystal suddenly appeared in front of him. The crystal looked very ordinary, but when he tapped it gently with his hand, it made a crisp sound. In the quiet secret place, it was like a string of wind chimes swinging. He held it in his hand, but it was extremely cold, like a piece of ice. Lu Ming couldn't help but shiver, and hurriedly wrapped it with his sleeves.
Lu Ming said: "I have seen the description of this thing in ancient books. It seems to be a magic weapon that has been lost. This magic weapon is extremely hard and is made of cold iron. It cannot be broken by burning in a fierce fire or hitting with a heavy object. The only way is to put it in the cauldron for refining magic weapons and burn it with karmic fire."
233 said: "Could it be that the blueprint of the Purple Furnace Magical Instrument is hidden in it? This Yuanzha flower grows on the snowy mountains all year round, but now it has also grown in this secret realm because of the cold iron. I think it should be consistent with the master's guess."
Lu Ming said: "In that case, I will enter your space and give it a try."
233 immediately said yes, and then tore the space apart. Lu Ming felt dizzy, and then he opened his eyes again and found that he was already in space. He put the transparent crystal into the cauldron and burned it for a while. Half an hour later, he took it out again and found that the crystal had melted, and a small jade ring was revealed.
Lu Ming took out the jade ring, turned it over and over in his hand for a while, and tried to inject spiritual energy into it. Suddenly, the jade ring gave off a slight heat. Then, the jade ring gave off a strong luster, and a few lines of words appeared in front of Lu Ming out of thin air.
