Chapter 288 The twists and turns
Zhou Xunmo was badly injured. Even after taking half a bottle of jade ointment given by Jiang Lisheng, he still had to lie in bed for two days. It was not until Wu Lingxue came and brought the sect's same healing medicine and fed him that he was able to get out of bed and walk.
Jiang Lisheng followed Wu Lingxue into the room and saw that Zhou Xunmo had gotten out of bed and was walking slowly towards the door.
Jiang Lisheng hurriedly stopped him, "Uncle Zhou, it's me. Your injuries haven't healed yet, so you don't have to welcome me."
Zhou Xunmo smiled faintly, "Thank you for saving me. If it weren't for you, I would have been a pile of bones by now."
Jiang Lisheng chuckled, "It proves that you are blessed with good fortune. I didn't have the half bottle of jade cream I gave you before. It was a few days ago when I returned to Qingxu that one of my uncles gave it to Brother Wei. He used half of the bottle and had half left. That's why I gave it to you. Otherwise, given your situation at that time, I don't know what I could have used to save you."
Although she had countless good elixirs, only a few of them could bring the dead back to life. Zhou Xunmo was dying at that time, and the only thing that could save him was the half of the Immortal Grass in her spiritual palace. But Shan Gao was unconscious, and Senior Brother Wei was already seriously injured and had been severely wounded because of breaking the formation. She definitely couldn't get it out by herself.
"So, I am really lucky." Zhou Xunmo turned around and went back to the house, walked to the table and motioned Jiang Lisheng to sit down.
Jiang Lisheng and Wu Lingxue followed Zhou Xunmo and sat down at the table.
There was spiritual tea and snacks on the table.
Zhou Xunmo poured three cups of tea and pushed them in front of Jiang Lisheng. "I heard that you slept for three days. Why are you so sleepy?"
"Uncle Zhou, you probably don't know that I've been sleepy since I was a child." Jiang Lisheng took the tea and drank it in his hand. "Now that I have lost my spiritual power, I'm just like an ordinary person. I have to work from sunrise to sunset. If I don't sleep for a few days, I'll be so sleepy that I can't even open my eyelids."
"So that's how it is." Zhou Xunmo nodded. "I looked at your forehead and saw a faint clear air, which proves that your spiritual power is different from mine. It's not completely lost. It's just that there's something wrong with your spiritual palace and you can't activate it? Is that right?"
Jiang Lisheng's eyes widened when he heard this, "Uncle Zhou, you saw that too?"
But why didn't Taiyi's ancestor see it? Or did he see it but just didn't say it? So he always doubted her?
"Huh? Who else has said this to you?" Zhou Xunmo looked at her.
"It's the Sect Master Feng of the Hehuan Sect. He told me about it three days ago." Jiang Lisheng didn't hide it when he saw him point it out.
"Well, if it's him, he can naturally see it." Zhou Xunmo said: "Because of the Hehuan Sect's magic, he got the real inheritance, the upper-level magic, and the clear and powerful eyes."
"What about you?" Jiang Lisheng asked curiously.
"I was born with a pair of eyes that are different from ordinary people." Zhou Xunmo said, "So, I can see it."
"You are amazing." Jiang Lisheng praised sincerely. After all, a cultivator without spiritual power is almost the same as an ordinary person, but he can still see things that others cannot see. It can be said that he is really blessed by heaven.
She looked into Zhou Xunmo's eyes carefully and found that this Uncle Zhou was not only good-looking, but also had beautiful eyes.
“If he was really powerful, he wouldn’t have ended up like this.” Zhou Xunmo shook his head.
Jiang Lisheng looked at him puzzledly, "Well, Uncle Zhou, can I ask you something? According to Brother Wei, your cultivation is extremely high, comparable to my master and Taiyi Sect Master Pei. Logically speaking, for someone as powerful as you, you shouldn't be among the uncles leading the team in a secret realm of Qishan that is only open to those at the foundation building stage or below. Why did you go with them? And you couldn't even resist the black hole strangling the secret realm?"
Zhou Xunmo said: "It was definitely not me originally."
Wu Lingxue said, "Originally I was supposed to go, but I had something urgent to do that day and it was very difficult, so I couldn't leave. Senior Brother Zhou went on my behalf. I thought it was just a one-way trip, but who knew..."
Jiang Lisheng really wanted to find out what was going on. After all, this was related to the person behind the scenes. She looked at Wu Lingxue and said, "Uncle Wu, can I ask you something? What is the difficult matter that made you go to Uncle Zhou instead of someone else? Taiyi has many uncles, and Uncle Zhou doesn't have to go."
"There's nothing I can't tell you. It's my little apprentice, Shang Jinghong. She comes from a noble family in the mortal world. A few months ago, the Shang family angered the current imperial master in the mortal world, and was sentenced to death by King Zhou. She came to me and asked me to save the Shang family. I had no choice but to go to the capital of the mortal world temporarily, find the imperial master, and plead with the Shang family."
Jiang Lisheng opened his eyes wide, "So, you have seen the imperial master from the mortal world?"
"Yes, we met, and the Imperial Master agreed to let the Shang family go for my sake." Wu Lingxue nodded. "It was because of this incident that I was unable to go to the Qishan Secret Realm. At the time, I didn't want Senior Brother Zhou to go in my place. I wanted another senior brother to go, but that senior brother was a medical practitioner. Before we set off, two Jindan disciples came back from training at the foot of the mountain and were seriously injured, so they couldn't leave for the time being."
"Then two people can go. Taiyi already has two uncles, so it is not necessary to send another one." Jiang Lisheng thought about how Uncle Chu sent Ji Fuling back to the sect, and it didn't seem to be a big deal for him to go ahead.
Wu Lingxue sighed, "That's true. Two team leaders can go, but among Taiyi's new disciples this time, there is a Chen Liuan. He is the direct disciple of Junior Brother Yu Yunsu, and he loves him very much. He was thousands of miles away and was worried, so he sent a message to me. It was all for his own disciple. I had accepted the order a long time ago, but when the time came, I couldn't get away. I could only think again and again, and then I asked Senior Brother Zhou for help. At that time, Senior Brother Zhou happened to have nothing to do, so I asked him to go, who knows..."
She looked guilty, "I should have been the one who suffered. If it weren't for me, Senior Brother Zhou wouldn't have been harmed."
Jiang Lisheng finally understood. It turned out that there were quite a lot of twists and turns inside. No wonder Wu Lingxue agreed to come in person immediately after hearing that she had found Zhou Xunmo. She even used Taiyi's sect treasures and arrived so quickly.
"I have already said this, don't blame Sister Wu." Zhou Xunmo shook his head.
"But I'm afraid I'll never be able to get over this." Wu Lingxue said helplessly, "And I clearly brought the Zhuyu grass, but you, Senior Brother Zhou, didn't eat it."
"The Jade Paste saved my life. Even if I eat this Zhuyu Grass, it can't restore my spiritual power. It's not very useful to me. It's a waste to eat it." Zhou Xunmo paused and said, "If you really feel guilty, why not give the Zhuyu Grass to nephew Jiang? Zhuyu Grass should be effective in restoring her spiritual power."
Jiang Lisheng opened his eyes wide and waved his hands quickly, "No, Uncle Zhou, I don't want it."
She knew how precious the Zhuyu grass was. At that time, a disciple of Taiyi was seriously injured and dying. Ye Xingci, Wu Lingxue and others were not determined to move the Zhuyu grass. It was she who broke off half of the immortal grass to save the man. How could she want it now?
