This scene.
This caused Li Xiaoyao's face to turn completely pale, his forehead covered in cold sweat, and he asked in a panic, "This...Junior Brother, what's going on?"
Su Muchen coughed and quickly said, "Please don't call me that, and don't try to establish a relationship with me. I'm not your junior brother."
Ye Tian's eyes lit up, as if he had learned something, and he coughed and said, "Brother, why are you standing in our sect's group? I don't know you."
Daoist Wuchen also quickly became serious: "Don't try to claim kinship with us. We don't have friends like you who don't follow the rules."
Even though Abbess Huayun was still somewhat unaccustomed to the ways of the Ruthless Sect, she quickly realized what was going on and hurriedly said, "I don't know him either."
At this time.
Huan Qingsha and Gu Nishang, though neither spoke, both took a step back, keeping their distance from the two.
Their actions demonstrated that they did not know Li Xiaoyao.
"Dare to pick our spiritual herbs indiscriminately, and dare to claim kinship with strangers. Drag them away and take them to the Pill Tower in Jiuxiao Town to be locked up and await the judgment of the president of our Pill Association."
The soldiers' commander said very seriously.
Li Xiaoyao's face immediately turned panicked, but it was no use.
The soldiers callously dragged Li Xiaoyao away.
"Let me go! I'm not lying! They really are my fellow disciples, we really are from the same sect! How can you not believe me?"
Li Xiaoyao roared in agony to the sky, but no one paid him any attention.
The soldiers ruthlessly dragged him away, as if he were a dead dog.
Li Xiaoyao was dragged away.
The members of the Ruthless Sect exchanged bewildered glances.
Daoist Wuchen coughed and reprimanded, "Su Muchen, how could you treat your senior brother like this? You are brothers, and he was in danger just now. Not only did you not help him, but you also dared to sever ties with your senior brother. This is truly disheartening!"
Ye Tian's lips twitched. Just now, when his master realized what was happening, he said something even more high-sounding than they did, about not following the rules and not having such friends.
But the echoes still linger.
Now, however, he has begun to reprimand Su Muchen.
"Ye Tian, don't look. You too, how can you say you don't know your senior brother? You grew up together, spending every day together. You should be the closest people to each other, but now you say you don't know each other?"
Ye Tian was also troubled by his master's words, and could only cough and say, "Master, I think it would be better to have our junior brother tell us what the punishment would be for picking spiritual herbs indiscriminately in the Dan Sheng Mountain Range, so that we can think of a way to get our senior brother out."
Upon hearing this, Daoist Wuchen nodded slightly and said, "Speak quickly."
Su Muchen scratched his head and said awkwardly, "Solving this is easy, but I'm afraid you won't be willing to do it."
Master Wuchen grew impatient and scolded, "You child, what nonsense are you spouting? Just tell me how to solve this. Your senior brother is about to go in and suffer a terrible disaster, and you still dare to dawdle here."
"No matter what it takes, we're from the same sect. How could we not save your senior brother?"
Hearing what Wuchen Daoist said, Su Muchen was quite moved and quickly said, "Master, it's actually quite simple. These spiritual herbs are divided into territories, and most of them are under the jurisdiction of the semi-official force of our Dansheng Mountain Range, the Pill Association."
"Those soldiers were also hired by the Pill Association. If they catch anyone picking a spiritual herb with a master, they will be imprisoned in the Pill Tower of Nine Heavens Town and fined."
"Five hundred taels of silver is all it takes to redeem my senior brother."
Su Muchen said this very seriously.
"What?" Upon hearing that it cost five hundred taels of silver, Daoist Wuchen's face stiffened, and he asked in utter astonishment, "Five hundred taels? Why don't you just rob us?"
“I think we can postpone the matter of redeeming our senior brother for a while. We can wait until our Ruthless Sect has developed and expanded to several hundred people before we come back to bring your senior brother back. That way, he can also have face. At that time, several hundred people will respectfully call him senior brother and welcome him back to the sect. Just thinking about it will move him a lot.”
Master Wuchen analyzed the situation carefully.
Su Muchen's lips twitched, and his forehead was covered in sweat.
Su Muchen was initially moved when he heard that his master was determined to redeem his senior brother no matter what.
result……
Perhaps in his master's heart, five hundred taels of silver was still slightly more important than Li Xiaoyao.
Ye Tian's forehead was also covered in a black line. He asked, "Junior brother, do we have to go and redeem our senior brother today? Or is there no time limit?"
Upon hearing this, Su Muchen smiled and said, "Senior brother, there is no time limit. Our Dan Sheng Mountain Range is very humane. If someone is caught picking pills at will, they will be kept in the tower for two years."
"Relatives and friends can pick him up at any time during these two years, but in addition to the five hundred taels of silver, they also have to cover his food, clothing, and lodging expenses for two years."
Ye Tian was taken aback by these words and asked, "If his family hadn't come to pick him up, wouldn't the Dan Sheng Mountain Range have lost money on his food, clothing, and lodging expenses for the past two years?"
Su Muchen shook his head and said, "No, our Dansheng Mountain Range will arrange some work for the people who come out, so that they can use the rewards to repay their food, clothing and lodging expenses over the past two years."
Upon hearing this...
Ye Tian was speechless.
This damned Dan Sheng Mountain Range looks like a seasoned offender.
This is a one-stop service.
First, they planted spiritual herbs and plants along the road without any explanation or labeling. After capturing people, there was also a dragon.
This left Ye Tian speechless.
“Alright, since there’s no time limit, let’s go wander around the city first, check the exact time of the competition, and make some preparations. Let your senior brother stay in that tower for now, and we’ll go and redeem him once we’ve raised enough money.” Wuchen Daoist spoke up at this moment, making the decision for the Wuqing Sect members.
Su Muchen then corrected and emphasized, "Master, it's not some kind of tower, it's the Nine Heavens Pill-Suppressing Tower, which is unique to our Pill Saint Mountain Range."
"It was the first Medicine God who had undergone two Nirvanas back then, who created a pill for our Dan Sheng Mountain Range. However, back then, the medicinal properties were too strong, and our Dan Sheng Mountain Range could not withstand it."
"So, having no other choice, the Medicine God had to ask the best weapon refiner at the time to work with him to create the Nine Heavens Pill Suppression Tower to suppress that pill."
"This tower has many functions, and imprisoning prisoners is only the smallest and most insignificant one."
"Is it that powerful? Then this pill must be incredibly amazing!" Ye Tian exclaimed in surprise.
"No, not just awesome, but incredibly awesome!" Su Muchen emphasized.
