Chapter 392 Seeking Medicine Guanghan Sect
"I think……"
"I ate too many duck necks in the first half of my life, roasted, braised, spicy... That's why I was destined to have this disaster."
"Or maybe, in my previous life, I was an executioner who beheaded countless people, and countless good heads were cut off by my knife."
"Anyway..."
Everything has its consequences, this is my retribution..."
"It's just Old Du's knife!"
Wang Longqi, with a thick plaster cast on his neck, grabbed Li Chu's clothes and cried with his face up.
As for why I didn't bow my head and cry...
Because it hurts.
Next to him, Du Lan Ke smiled awkwardly and said, "Master, you know me... Even if you don't know me, you should know the Seventh Young Master. If I hadn't appeared in time to knock him out every time, he wouldn't have been defeated even with nine lives in the past few days."
Li Chu nodded silently.
"You have to believe me, it's not my fault..." Wang Longqi sobbed, "I was just afraid that I couldn't resist the temptation, so I didn't even dare to go out. But who knew... there were bad people among the people!"
"Do you know how they tested me?"
“I’m so scared!”
“…”
Li Chu blinked. It seemed that Wang Longqi was not having a very pleasant time in Yaowang Town these past two days.
"Indeed." Lao Du also nodded in agreement, "These past few days have been a little strange. No, very strange..."
"What's wrong?" Li Chu looked at him.
"Living over there is the Ninth Madam of Prince Han's Mansion, with a little maid. That Ninth Madam...seems to have a strong interest in the Seventh Young Master." Old Du said seriously.
"What do you mean she's interested? She's clearly in love with me." Wang Longqi said firmly, "You don't know what lewd words she said to me. Eh... I blush just thinking about it."
"Seventh Young Master is a bit too confident when he says this." Old Du sneered, "I just took the initiative to look for you a few times, and you say that I'm in love with you, haha..."
"Then tell me, what's the matter with that little maid who took the initiative to look for you several times?" Wang Longqi suddenly asked back.
Lao Du puffed out his chest and said, "She is definitely in love with me."
Wang Longqi: “Hehe…”
Li Chu looked at these two ordinary yet confident men, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed to be associated with them.
…
at the same time.
In the main hall of Yanzhaomen in the north.
Two disciples were feeding porridge to the stiff senior brother Guanxi. As they fed him, they advised him, "Senior brother, just wait for your recovery. Don't worry, Master said that when you are well, he will take you to seek revenge."
"Revenge is not a pressing matter. Senior Brother, just rest and recuperate." Another disciple also said.
"Thank goodness there's nothing urgent." The disciple in front continued, "Otherwise, with the hot temper of the eldest brother, if there was an important task and he was delayed for a few days, I'm afraid he would be very anxious."
"Eh? Big Brother, why are you crying?"
After helping Guanxi wipe away his tears, the two disciples sat back down and started feeding him.
At the same time chatting.
"But the atmosphere in our Yanzhao Sect is still very good. Even if an urgent task is delayed, our master will at most scold us and leave it at that. There won't be any severe punishment."
"Yes, our sect is so good." Another disciple said, "I heard that those rebels on Broken Monument Mountain will have their hands cut off or even their lives taken away if they delay things. It's extremely strict!"
"Hahahaha, they are in a beheading business after all, so they should be more rigorous. There is no way we can endure such torture."
"Eh? Big Brother, why are you crying again?"
"Big Brother, why are you so sentimental lately? It's strange."
The two disciples hurriedly helped Guanxi brother wipe his tears, but they were like a spring, they could not be wiped clean, and the sadness flowed like a river.
…
"hiss……"
“Wow…”
"You are really amazing..."
“I’ve never heard of that…”
In the medical clinic of Yaowang Town, two old doctors kept smacking their lips in amazement at a pile of colorful grass leaves.
"The Wooden King of the Yanyue Sect is really generous. Any one of these dozens of rare poisons is enough to kill a mortal, but he just took them all without even looking at them, and he doesn't think it's a waste." Changchun Sou shook his head.
"With so many poisons mixed together, if you try to solve any one of them, it will inevitably involve several or even dozens of other poisons. Even a god would have a hard time solving them all."
The old man frowned for a moment and said in defeat: "I can't solve it."
"Haha, although I can't cure it, it's rare for me to see such a poisonous body in my life. It actually opened my eyes." Changchun old man said.
"Yes, it is worth the trip." Xuanhu Weng agreed.
"no……"
Wang Longqi listened to the conversation between the two miracle doctors, and his heart grew colder the more he listened.
"Two old doctors, please tell me for sure, can this poison of mine be cured?"
"There is definitely no solution." Changchun Old Man shook his head decisively.
"Well--"
Upon hearing this, Wang Longqi's heart suddenly died, his eyes turned white, and he fell backwards, as if he was about to pass out.
"But death does not necessarily mean death." Xuanhu Weng said with a smile.
"Um?"
Hearing this, Wang Longqi sat up straight again.
"That's right." Changchun Sou said, "It can't be solved, but if we can get the legendary holy medicine, the Life-shaping Pill, we can cleanse everything of the old and reshape a perfect body."
"Unfortunately, the Life-shaping Pill has been lost for thousands of years." The old man said again.
"Well--"
Upon hearing this, Wang Longqi’s vision went dark again and he fell backwards, about to faint.
Lost for thousands of years, what's the difference between this medicine and non-existence? Looking for it now? Who knows when it will take.
It was obvious that he was dying.
"Have you forgotten that the recipe for the Life-Shaping Pill is in my hand? I already know it by heart." Changchun Old Man said with a smile.
"Um?"
Hearing this, Wang Longqi jumped up again.
"Haha, I forgot." Xuan Hu Weng also chuckled, "Then do you have the raw materials for the Life-shaping Pill?"
"Haha, there is none at all." Changchun Old Man shook his head: "Do you know what is on it? It is impossible to collect them all in this lifetime."
"Well--"
Is it finally over? Wang Longqi couldn't catch his breath, and he leaned back and fainted again.
"Do you need some medicinal herbs that have long disappeared?" asked Xuanhu Weng.
“No, although most of the herbs are rare, we have them in stock in Yaowang Town. The only thing missing is the main ingredient, the Ice Gallbladder Sacred Heart Lotus.” said the Changchun old man.
"Oh, that's unlikely to be obtained." The old man agreed.
"Hello!"
With a bang, Wang Longqi threw away the wheelchair and stood up, slamming the table.
"I've been putting up with you two for so long..." He looked at the two old doctors angrily, "Do I have any hope of being saved? Can you give me a definite answer? I've almost developed abdominal muscles in such a short while!"
"How should I put it..."
"In your case..." Changchun Old Man said with some difficulty: "To say that you are going to die, it is not completely certain. To say that you can be saved, it is not completely certain either..."
Seeing that Wang Longqi was about to cry again, Xuanhu Weng added: "The main ingredient for refining the Life-shaping Pill is the Ice Gallbladder Sacred Heart Lotus. There is only one plant in the world, and it is the sacred object inherited by the Guanghan Sect among the Twelve Immortal Sects. In the sacred place of the Guanghan Sect, Xiaoyaochi, only the saints of the Guanghan Sect in each generation can take a lotus seed. After taking it, their minds will be stabilized and their cultivation will improve by leaps and bounds. How can I give such a sacred object that has consolidated the foundation of the sect for tens of millions of years to a mere mortal like you?"
Wang Longqi pouted: "Life is priceless..."
"Why not... let me give it a try." Li Chu stepped forward and said.
No matter what, Wang Longqi is also his friend, and he was targeted by the Wooden King because of himself.
Even if there is a glimmer of hope, he will not give up Wang Longqi.
“Li Chu…” Wang Longqi pouted again, “You are truly my adopted parent, my adopted father and mother, and my lifelong good brother…”
Lao Du patted his shoulder and said, "Seventh Young Master is so moved that he can't even tell the difference between the generations..."
“Little Taoist Priest Li…” Changchun Old Man looked over and said sternly, “I know you are a natural talent with great magical powers, but no matter how powerful you are… you can’t compare to an entire immortal sect.”
When saying this, looking at Li Chu's handsome and calm face, Changchun Sou suddenly felt a little guilty.
Um……
Wouldn't that be a bit imprecise?
But it shouldn't be possible, right? It doesn't make sense that it can be possible...
After a pause, he continued, "But since you are doing this for your friend, I can't stop you. I can only remind you a few words. Among the twelve immortal sects, Guanghan Sect is the most difficult to deal with. Although they never take the initiative to provoke others, they are very wary of contact with outsiders. Especially those who approach the mountain gate, they will always use flying swords to serve them."
"Yes." Xuanhu Weng nodded in agreement. "The Little Yaochi of Guanghan Sect is a fairyland on earth, the most suitable place for growing natural treasures. Many top-quality medicinal herbs can only grow there. Changchun Sou and I have gone to Guanghan Sect several times to ask for medicine. Even with our fame and status, we were always given all kinds of difficulties and asked for exorbitant prices. They simply want to isolate the Little Yaochi from the world."
"Is that so..." Li Chu frowned.
"That's true. I've heard about it before." Old Du also said, "The whole martial arts world has a unified impression of Guanghan Sect."
Dulanke, Changchun Sou and Xuanhu Weng exchanged a glance, and the three men, who were over 200 years old in total, said in unison:
“Cold.”
…
Xuanyue Mountain.
It is so named because when standing on the top of the mountain, one can see the sky is high and the earth is vast, and a huge moon seems to be hanging above one's head, which is extremely shocking.
Under the moon, the whole mountain seemed to be covered with a layer of silver.
During the day, Xuanyue Mountain is full of flowers and green willows, full of vitality.
When Li Chu arrived at the gate of Guanghan Sect, it was still early, but quite a lot of people had already gathered here. They all seemed to be cultivators from all over the place, and from what they talked about, it seemed that they all came here to ask for medicine.
"Brother Chen, you were just driven down the mountain three days ago. How dare you come up again? But what secret weapon did you get?"
"Boss Wang, why are you here again? Didn't the fairies of Guanghan Sect sternly warn you that there is no medicine to cure impotence in Xiaoyaochi?"
“Master Xuan! Oh my, even someone of your status has come here in person to ask for medicine!”
It seemed that those who came were all well-known figures in the underworld. They were more or less familiar with each other, and they called their friends and chatted with each other.
Li Chu didn't have many acquaintances in the northern underworld, so he sat quietly by himself.
Seeing his appearance, the people around him would not be so tactless as to move closer to him, and a small open space was naturally formed.
I don’t know how long it was before I heard a loud crane cry.
The sound reaches the sky.
"Here we come! It's time to open the mountain gate!" Everyone immediately rushed forward excitedly.
The mountain gate of Guanghan Sect is actually just a few thick white marble pillars with the three sharp characters "Guanghan Sect" engraved on them.
But no one dared to cross the line.
A moment later, four beautiful women in white dresses with fluttering sleeves came floating over, carrying long swords on their backs and standing on the back of a spiritual white crane.
After a while, the white crane landed.
Four female disciples of Guanghan Sect came to the mountain gate.
One of the women, who looked a little older and had tied her hair, said loudly to the crowd, "Most of you are not here for the first time to ask for medicine, and I believe you all know the rules of Xiaoyaochi. Please come forward and tell us the name of the medicine you are looking for, who it is used to save, and what you want to exchange for it. If it meets the standards of our sect, you can go up the mountain to discuss the matter of asking for medicine."
“We understand!”
The people in front shouted.
In fact, according to Changchun Sou, the so-called medicine-seeking evaluation of Guanghan Sect is actually a way to deceive people.
After all, Xiaoyaochi is blessed by nature. If it is not open to the public, more and more people in the world will be resentful of Guanghan Sect. If resentment accumulates for a long time, it may lead to disaster.
Therefore, Guanghan Sect established such a rule for asking for medicine. Even though most people will still be rejected, those who are rejected will find ways to increase their rewards instead of simply resenting Guanghan Sect. This way they have an outlet for venting.
"Okay, let's start." The woman with tied hair waved her hand.
"I'll do it!"
The first one in line was a middle-aged man in brocade robe, looking quite majestic.
He said loudly: "I am the deputy leader of the Four Waters Gang in the North. I came here to ask for a treasure of heaven and earth, the Jade Sword and Flower Leaf, for my seriously injured and dying leader. I am willing to pay ten thousand taels of gold and ten pairs of jade bi!"
Some people in the back gasped when they heard the price, but if they thought about the life of the leader of the Si Shui Gang, it was worth this price.
only……
The four women at the mountain gate seemed unmoved.
"My Four Waters Gang has nearly 10,000 members, and we play a very important role in Jixiang Prefecture. If my leader dies, the forces in the underworld will be reshuffled, and that could involve the lives of tens of thousands of people!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the middle-aged man in brocade robe shouted again.
"Sorry." The four women did not exchange words, and the woman with the tied hair said directly: "No."
Someone in the back whispered, "There is only one Jade Sword Flower in the world, and it took more than 300 years for it to grow four petals. The first three petals have been used to treat the late emperor of this dynasty, Taoist celebrities, and others. A mere leader of the Four Waters Gang may not be worthy of Guanghan Sect's attention."
The deputy gang leader left in disgrace.
Even though he was extremely anxious, he did not dare to act recklessly in front of Guanghan Sect.
Then, a man with a golden robe and jade belt and an extraordinary demeanor stepped forward.
"I am Xuan Ming Jing, the leader of the Beidi Tianqi Sect."
This was none other than the Xuan Sect Master who was the center of attention before. As soon as he stepped forward, he attracted a lot of attention. It seemed that he had a high status in the martial arts world.
"I want to ask for an Amber Moon Fairy Flower on my behalf." Xuan Mingjing said earnestly, "My Tianqi Sect has been established for nine generations, and I finally touched the threshold of the immortals on earth. Now I need this magical medicine to help me break through. If you give it to me, my Tianqi Sect is willing to be affiliated with Guanghan Sect for a hundred years, and I will ride the sword mountains and seas of fire as I please!"
“Wow…”
These words really caused an uproar.
You know, the Tianqi Sect is not a small sect, but a well-known one in the North. If you let someone drive you for a hundred years, it would be the same as the entire sect being enslaved. The income you can create in these hundred years is far more than the previous ten thousand taels of gold.
This time, the four women turned around and discussed for a long time.
No immortal sect dares to underestimate the conditions proposed by the Xuanming Mirror.
But what surprised everyone was that after the discussion, the woman with tied hair shook her head again.
"Sorry." She refused. "No."
"What?" Xuan Mingjing and the crowd were equally shocked. "My Tianqi Sect has been your slave for a hundred years, but it's not enough to exchange for an Amber Moon Fairy Flower? Your Guanghan Sect..."
Xuan Mingjing's face began to twist a little, "Do you Guanghan Sect have to go against me? I... I'll get it myself!"
He roared and rose from the ground, the might of the peak of the Decline Realm was very terrifying! Boom——
But the next second, a white silk flew out from the misty clouds in front of him, directly wrapped around him, and then swung hard, throwing this powerful figure directly into the boundless sky!
"Xuan Ming Jing, considering that you have never done anything evil, I will forgive you for your disrespect this time. But if you dare to come to Guanghan Sect and make noise again, I will never let you off easily!" A cold voice sounded from afar.
Highlight a ruthless one! (End of this chapter)
