Chapter 117 It’s Time to Go
Zhang Chuchu opened her eyes wide.
Jiang Qiu knocked the man unconscious with an elbow.
Zhang Chuchu looked at Jiang Qiu, then looked at Gongsun Taopu lying on the ground, "You......"
Jiang Qiu: "There's nothing we can do. He's not going to wake up anytime soon. Rather than trying to make him more angry, I'd rather knock him out. He should be better when he wakes up."
Jiang Qiu said it simply and roughly. Zhang Chuchu gave him a thumbs up in appreciation and laughed twice.
"This time the thumbs up is correct."
Jiang Qiu: ""
Gongsun Gaopu had already fainted. Jiang Qiu carefully examined the festering wounds on his body. Each one was shocking. It looked... looked like he had been poisoned by a Gu. For some reason, this symptom seemed familiar.
Having said that, we saw Gongsun Kaopu soaking in this lake from the very beginning. Could it be that this lake water can restrain the poison in Gongsun Kaopu's body?
The careful Jiang Qiu suddenly saw Zhang Chuchu about to wash her hands in the lake. Just as she was about to touch the surface of the lake, Jiang Qiu suddenly threw a stone at her.
Zhang Chuchu cried out in pain: "Ah, Qiu'er, what are you doing? It hurts so much."
Jiang Qiu pursed his lips and said, "I think you don't want your hands anymore. How dare you use the water from the miasma forest?"
Zhang Chuchu: "Ah? Then who else has used it?"
Jiang Qiu's worries were not without reason. There was no grass growing in the center of the forest, and all the plants were withered, except for the lush and strange century-old trees. How could this lake not arouse suspicion?
Jiang Qiu was too lazy to talk to him and just threw a leaf in. The leaf quickly turned into rotten water right under his nose.
Zhang Chuchu was shocked.
"What the hell, fighting fire with fire?"
From the very beginning, Jiang Qiu discovered something was wrong. If this lake water was used to nourish spiritual energy, there would be no grass or trees growing around it.
.......
After Gongsun Gaopu woke up, he was stunned when he saw Jiang Qiu for the first time.
"Brother Jiang?"
Jiang Qiu: “Yeah.”
After discovering that it was really Jiang Qiu, Gongsun Gaopu seemed to remember something and turned his face away, trying to escape again.
Jiang Qiu grabbed him and said coldly, "Why are you running? Gongsun Kaopu."
Gongsun Kaopu's face flushed, his eyes reddened, and he almost cried.
"I'm afraid I'll scare you with my half-human, half-ghost appearance."
Jiang Qiu: "No, no matter what you become, you are still Gongsun Gaopu, the brother Gongsun who saved me. Tell me, what exactly happened in the past few years?"
Gongsun Gaopu lowered his head and whispered, "I don't know what happened. One day, I suddenly felt incredibly itchy. I didn't pay much attention, but the next morning, I was in this state. They all said I was infected with a demonic poison that was going to destroy the Immortal Sect. I was a spy sent by the demons, and they wanted to burn me on the execution platform. I had no choice but to escape. The wounds on my body were festering day by day. I followed the forest and came here. I was surprised to find that only this place could delay the poison in my body."
"However, I found that my mind was gradually weakening under the invasion of the poison. Sometimes I even forgot who I was."
After hearing this, Jiang Qiu fell silent. Indeed, Gongsun Gaopu's symptoms seemed too serious.
Zhang Chuchu interrupted, "There's no other possible explanation for your symptoms other than being framed. Rather than being framed by the demons, I think it's more likely that you were framed by a fellow disciple."
This time, Jiang Qiu didn't think Zhang Chuchu was talking nonsense. There was always a lot of intrigue and deception in the immortal sect. In order to maintain superficial hypocrisy, they used many tricks in secret. Gongsun Taopu was most likely framed by his fellow disciples.
Jiang Qiu: "Brother Gongsun, do you remember who you had that with?"
Gongsun Taopu pondered for a moment, raised his head and shook his head.
However, judging from the current situation, Jiang Qiu had no solution for the time being. Worried, he handed the effective medicine on him to Gongsun Taopu, and also handed over some self-defense talismans. However, he didn't need to worry too much about self-defense. From the fight with him just now, it seemed that this poison could enhance a person's combat effectiveness. Jiang Qiu was in a difficult situation when fighting with him.
"These medicines are helpful in maintaining consciousness. If you feel your symptoms are getting worse, take some. Also, this is a sound transmission note. I don't know your symptoms yet. If I find a solution, I'll tell you. Brother Gongsun, remember not to give up on yourself. I'm afraid my junior sister will be sad."
Jiang Qiu handed the sound transmission talisman to Gongsun Taopu. When he mentioned his junior sister, Gongsun Taopu's eyes turned slightly red and bloodshot. He held Jiang Qiu's hand and nodded heavily.
Who could have thought that the once handsome young man from the Immortal Sect would become like this? Jiang Qiu sighed in his heart.
However, just as they left, a white figure appeared beside Gongsun Taopu and said slowly:
"Junior brother, how do you do things? You haven't completed any of the things I asked you to do!"
"Don't forget, your junior sister is still waiting for you inside."
Gongsun Gaopu clenched his fists, his voice trembling, "Brother, being so anxious might arouse suspicion. He has already given me the sound transmission talisman. It won't be too late to go again someday."
Bai Ying snorted coldly, "I hope you won't disappoint me again, otherwise, my patience with you will be gone. You want to see Junior Sister, right?"
"Yes, brother."
..........
..........
After leaving the miasma forest, Zhang Chuchu recklessly continued to dance in Jiang Qiu's minefield, "Yu Jian, can you please take me with you? How dare you do this in front of that snake? Jiang Qiu, you're putting love before friendship, eh eh eh eh, can you be a little gentler? I've found that you're just too soft. If you keep acting like this, I guarantee that Feng Li will keep you in his clutches for the rest of your life."
Damn it, can this guy just shut up? Jiang Qiu was furious, his eyes almost murderous. If he didn't mention Feng Li, he'd die? And what else could you call him soft? Can a real man be soft? What does it mean to be exploited for life?
Jiang Qiu felt his scalp tingling
Thinking that he will be returning to modern times soon, Zhang Chuchu, with her bad mouth, begged him to talk less and do more good deeds.
Zhang Chuchu expressed his innocence, saying that he was just talking and didn't expect Jiang Qiu to react so strongly.
Jiang Qiu responded with a vicious retort, "Next time, next time, I'll change the protagonist's name to yours. I'll let that person eat you alive for the rest of your life, okay?"
Zhang Chuchu suddenly felt a chill on her back.
Jiang Qiu snorted and sneered twice.
You have to use magic to defeat magic.
Zhang Chuchu, however, breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at Jiang Qiu's relaxed face.
After the two walked out of the miasma forest, they settled in a remote town.
I didn't see any reward announcement for him along the way.
At this time, Jiang Qiu happened to hear the news that Demon Lord Feng Li was about to marry a concubine.
"Did you know? The Demon Lord is going to marry a Demon Concubine."
"Really? I've never heard of it."
"That's because you're out of touch with the news. Now most of the domains know that the Demon Lord is the lord of two domains and is currently in the Northern Domain's Demon Palace. Who else could this Demon Concubine be other than the former Northern Domain Princess? The Demon Lord didn't kill her, so why is that even worth considering?"
Everyone sighed after hearing this.
Jiang Qiu sneered. No wonder no one came to catch him. So... that's how it is.
Feng Li was probably tired of him.
But that's okay.
The relationship between them should have been limited to a task-based one.
If he had known that progress would be so fast after he left, he should have escaped earlier!
Now, the mission is almost completed.
It's time to go.
