Wen Le, an outer sect disciple of Zhishengu, is currently the deacon of the canteen.
Ever since Zhishengu issued the call for submission, it was him... and some of his fellow deacons from Zhishengu who distributed elixirs to the outer sect disciples.
If you ask Wen Le what he thinks of the non-Buddhist disciples who come to Zhisheng Valley, his opinion is consistent with that of most of the disciples in Zhisheng Valley:
Where did this country bumpkin come from? He's begging in their Zhishen Valley!
...They are just some lower-ranking sects who do their best to flatter and curry favor with Zhishengu.
On May 28, Wen Le woke up from his meditation. He stood up and looked out the window, and saw that the weather outside was gloomy and it looked like a heavy rain was coming.
He thought, that’s right, for the Daojian Sect, their mood was very consistent with the weather at that time.
The higher-ups had already sent out a message yesterday, saying that there were enough cultivators and that they would soon attack Daojianmen.
Although the disciples of those rural sects are rude, barbaric, and ignorant, but...
There are indeed more than a thousand Jindan cultivators in Zhisheng Valley now.
Thousands of Jindan monks! How can Daojianmen resist such a powerful force?
Wen Le looked at the gloomy sky outside the window, and felt somewhat relaxed and happy.
He packed up his things briefly, walked out of his residence and went to the dining building he was in charge of.
It was still early at this time and the sun had not yet risen, but a little light had just appeared under the mountains in the sky.
Wen Le walked on the stone road with fresh air and lush flowers and grass, looking at the country bumpkins from other clans, and felt a sense of pride in his heart.
What is the holy land of alchemy?
What is the number one sect in the Immortal Relics Land?
This was his sect. How could he not love it and be proud of it?
He only knew that Zhisheng Valley was very impressive before, but without the contrast of other sects, he did not expect it to be so impressive.
Although, he was just a small outer disciple.
Wen Le was walking when suddenly a cultivator came towards him. He looked unfashionable and was obviously a disciple of an outer sect.
Sure enough, the man came over, holding a pill and asked him, "Excuse me, are you a disciple of Zhishen Valley?"
"Yes!" The sect told them that they should treat disciples from other sects with courtesy, so even though they looked down on disciples from other sects, Wen Le still nodded with a smile, and asked enthusiastically, "Which sect are you from? What can I do for you?"
"I am Zhang Xiaofan, a disciple of Xuanqin Xuanling Sect." The outer sect disciple said respectfully, "This pill is the one I received from the dining hall yesterday, but it seems to have a problem. After I took it, my cultivation did not increase, but my dantian hurts a little. Can you help me see what the problem is?"
"No improvement in your cultivation?" Wen Le heard this and thought to himself, I'm afraid your own aptitude is too poor, and you have taken too many pills and developed resistance, so that's why they have no effect!
But he didn't say it directly, that he should treat the outer sect disciples with courtesy. He reached out and took the pill, pretending to take a look.
Why pretend?
If he could understand elixirs, he would not be an outer sect steward disciple, but a steward disciple in charge of the dining hall.
He was just going to pretend to take a look and then say something casually to appease this country bumpkin from another sect.
But, something strange happened.
Wen Le had just taken the pill when this pill, which looked like a qi-replenishing pill, melted in his hands.
"?" Why did it suddenly melt? Wen Le didn't understand.
However, the melting was just the beginning. Immediately afterwards, the melted pill went directly into his palm and disappeared completely.
“This…” Wen Le, a disciple of the Holy Land of Alchemy, had not yet realized the danger. He looked at the outer sect disciple named Zhang Xiaofan in confusion and asked, “Why did your pill… become like this? It seems that the pill… is… expired…”
As he was speaking, he began to feel dizzy. Before he could finish his words, sleepiness came over him and he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
"Brother? Brother?" Zhang Xiaofan came over nervously, and held him in his arms very smoothly, pretending to be loud and said, "Hey, I told you that this pill has a strong medicinal property! But you didn't believe it. Is there a problem now?"
He shook his head and sighed, and supported Wen Le as if he were his junior brother, all the way to Wen Le's residence.
To be safe, he did not kill Wen Le directly, fearing that his identity token would be triggered. He only helped Wen Le to the place where he was practicing and put him down, and then took out a pill to calm his mind and help him sleep, making sure that he would not wake up for ten days or half a month.
After dealing with Wen Le, Zhang Xiaofan stood up and walked out, his body shape changing as he walked. When he reached the door and opened it, he had already changed into Wen Le's appearance.
Wen Le is just an outer sect disciple and his job in the canteen is very simple. In one sentence, he is just an uncle who serves meals in the canteen.
Qin Ran had been observing him for several days. Now he pretended to be Wen Le. It was not easy at all, but it was smooth as flowing water. No one would be able to find the flaw.
The process of distributing pills from Zhisheng Valley to other sects is as follows: a special elder takes the inner disciples to the place where the pills are stored to get the pills, and then escorts the pills to the canteen, where the disciples distribute them. Although there is no possibility of any accidents in Zhisheng Valley, the elder still needs to watch from the side until the pills are distributed.
Before, it was ordinary outer disciples who distributed the pills, and this process could not go wrong, but now it was Qin Ran who distributed the pills. Qin Ran did not do anything else. He just added some of the pills he made himself to the pills to be distributed. The pills he made were poisonous and looked exactly like the pills to be distributed. He just added them randomly and did not do anything else, so even if the elder in charge was right next to him, he would definitely not be able to tell.
As one of the first sects to rush to Zhishen Valley to help, Cangjiang Sect has been here for more than ten days. From the beginning, they were full of ambition and enthusiasm, vowing to follow the lead of Zhishen Valley and take the lead to repay the emperor's kindness, to now... they are considering whether to leave directly.
They watched the number of people in Zhisheng Valley increase little by little, and the strength of the Hengduan Mountains Alliance grow little by little; they felt the pride of the Zhisheng Valley people who had their noses on their foreheads, and felt the complexity of the hearts of the people in the Hengduan Mountains Alliance.
In the simple minds of these physical practitioners, this alliance is a powerful and chaotic force.
Li Yi was originally the one who loved Zhishen Valley the most. When he came to Zhishen Valley, he was willing to repay the emperor's kindness with his remaining life. But when he put his warm face on a cold butt, the hotter his face was, the colder he felt.
He was very angry over the past ten days.
That morning, he was practicing in the courtyard when Lin Han, the disciple that the headmaster liked very much, came over and asked him, "Brother, are you going to get the pills today?"
"Receive?" Li Yi snorted coldly, "What are you receiving?! Others give out pills to beggars. Are you so poor that you have to be a beggar?!"
Lin Han paused, then said, "But... we are really short of medicinal pills."
"Hey! Come and eat!" Li Yi said, "You want some like feeding a dog? Do you have any self-respect?!"
"But..." Lin Han thought for a moment and asked, "Brother, the fight is about to start. Do you want to go to the battlefield?"
"Of course I do." Li Yi replied, "But I'm here to repay my gratitude, not to eat for free or be a dog!"
"You will help them fight in the future. Taking their medicine now is just like taking military pay." Lin Han said, "It's like a business deal. We provide the labor and they provide the medicine. Why do you think so much, brother?"
"I come for righteousness!" Li Yi emphasized.
"Even if it's for gratitude, you still need to practice." Lin Han said, "Besides, you haven't received any pills for three days. Zhishen Valley is stingy and every pill you receive is recorded in the book. If you act like this, they may still be suspicious of you."
Li Yi then stopped practicing and looked at Lin Han and said, "I just don't want to see Zhi Shen Gu's disgusting look!"
"Just don't look at it." Lin Han said, "They hired us to provide the elixir, and we are equal to them. Brother, just think like this."
After Lin Han's advice, Li Yi put on his clothes and followed him to the Zhishengu dining hall.
There were quite a lot of people in the dining hall, a huge crowd, all pushing forward to get today's portion of pills as soon as possible.
Not everyone values gratitude and self-respect like Li Yi. In fact, many sects came to Zhishen Valley because of the endless supply of elixirs in Zhishen Valley.
"Ha!" Seeing this scene, Li Yi sneered, "They are just like chickens and dogs!"
"Brother, please say less!" Lin Han hurriedly dissuaded him, then grabbed Li Yi's shoulder and prepared to squeeze into the crowd.
It must be said that in such situations, as physical practitioners, they have infinite physical advantages.
But Li Yi shook his shoulder, causing Lin Han to stagger. He asked Lin Han coldly, "I'm here, why do you insist on making me the dog that fights for food?"
Lin Han steadied himself and looked at Li Yi with a complicated expression. Then he sighed and said, "Well, let's wait and see. When they all receive the medicine, there will always be some for us."
So two tall men stood outside the crowd in the dining hall, ready to follow the crowd to get two pills for qi training and health care.
However, they didn't have to wait long, and before they even entered the canteen door, something happened.
"Dead!" The crowd in front suddenly erupted with a noisy voice, "Someone is dead! Poisoned to death!"
"The elixir from Zhishen Valley is poisonous!" someone shouted.
"I saw with my own eyes that he took the elixir from Zhishen Valley and then died!"
"It's a scam of Zhishenggu!" someone was horrified, "Zhishenggu wants to kill us!"
“Ahhhh…someone died again!”
"The pills are poisonous! Anyone who uses them will die!"
"It's us that Zhishengu wants to kill! He wants to poison us all!!"
"What Zhishengu gave us was a poison pill!!"
"Zhishengu... Zhishengu..."
Lin Han and Li Yi understood the reason for the riot in front of them. Li Yi looked at Lin Han with a sneer and said, "I thought so. How could such a stingy sect give out pills for free? It turns out that they are poison pills. This explains it all!"
Li Yi had been treated with contempt by many disciples of Zhisheng Valley that day, and he was not at all surprised by what was happening.
"No!" Lin Han was keenly aware of the problem. He shook his head and said, "Zhisheng Valley has no reason and no need to do this. They don't dare to do it! This is inside Zhisheng Valley. They absolutely cannot afford the consequences of these sects' explosions."
"Someone has been poisoned to death! What are they afraid of?" Li Yi asked.
Lin Han opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, because he really couldn't figure it out.
The top leaders of Zhisheng Valley arrived quickly and drove everyone out of the dining hall. They found that seventeen people had been poisoned. Among them, ten cultivators in the Foundation Establishment stage were directly poisoned to death, and seven Jindan cultivators still had a trace of breath.
They tried to treat the Jindan monk, but they had no idea about the poison; they had to quickly recall the pills they had distributed today.
The pills that had not been distributed today were also sealed up.
However, their action of taking back the pills they had sent out...has buried a lot of resentment in this generally selfish cultivation world.
Moreover, they announced that they would no longer distribute pills for free until the cause of this incident was found.
This has sparked a new wave of public opinion. Some people believe that this was a conspiracy planned by Zhishenggu because it no longer wanted to issue elixirs. Others were disgusted by Zhishenggu's condescending attitude in handling the incident. It refused to admit that it was its own problem, and neither said it was an alchemy problem nor a management problem.
For a time, the people of Zhisheng Valley were in a panic... or, in other words, in the spiritual world where there is no social morality, Zhisheng Valley at this time was close to a dynamite that was about to explode in all aspects.
A general who can manage 10,000 people without causing any trouble is a qualified general; a general who can take 10,000 people out for a walk and bring them back intact is an excellent general; a general who can take 10,000 people out and fight can be said to be a famous general of the modern era; a general who can take 10,000 people out, enforce discipline, and win battles is a famous general who will be passed down through the ages. As for those who can command hundreds of thousands or millions of soldiers to fight and can say that the more the better, there are only a few of them in the entire history of mankind.
Obviously, there is no such person in Zhishen Valley.
Before they recruited tens of thousands of outer sect monks to Zhisheng Valley, they considered that there might be problems, but they did not think so deeply and did not expect that the problems would be so serious.
Therefore, at this time, the situation in Zhishen Valley was more serious than Qin Ran had expected.
