Three Realms 5
The two discussed for a long time, and finally came up with a solution: to follow Gu Qingqu and snatch the Earth Spirit Pearl after he found it. Since no one knew where Gu Qingqu had gone, Fu Ze had to go to the sky to look for him. Qin Yan, whose demonic powers had been sealed, had to wait where he was.
After Fu Ze left, Qin Yan took a night pearl and found a place to take a nap. Without his magic power, he felt sleepy.
Qin Yan walked into the room and fell asleep, but as soon as he closed his eyes, he felt a weight on his chest. He opened his eyes suddenly in fear. The light of the night pearl had gone out for some reason. He could not see anything but could hear the sound, "Qin Yan"
The sticky voice was 90% similar to Gu Qingqu's. Qin Yan came back to his senses and grabbed the person on his body, "Are you Tu Lingzhu?"
"What Earth Spirit Pearl? Qin Yan, what are you talking about?"
Qin Yan pinched his neck tightly and said, "Hand over the Earth Spirit Pearl!"
Instantly, the Night Pearl lit up, and Gu Qingqu's aggrieved and frightened face came into Qin Yan's eyes, but this time Qin Yan did not show any mercy. He said coldly: "This trick won't work, so just hand over the Earth Spirit Pearl obediently."
"I really don't know what Earth Spirit Pearl is." Gu Qingqu's face turned red as his neck was pinched. A tear just slipped down his eye. Qin Yan twisted his neck and said coldly, "Then go to hell."
The body turned into white mist and disappeared, but the head fell to the ground and rolled. Qin Yan's eyes followed it. As a result, he looked up and saw that all of them were Gu Qingqu standing neatly in the room. They looked at him with tears in their eyes and asked, "Qin Yan, don't you love me anymore?"
The dark green light shining on their faces looked very strange. Qin Yan frowned and looked at them, very angry. "Don't use this face to disgust people. You don't deserve it."
After Qin Yan finished cursing, he rushed forward with his fists, knocking them all down one by one, but they all stood up again. Qin Yan was so angry that he cursed loudly. Just as he was cursing, he heard a sound of cutting air behind him. Qin Yan was about to turn around when he heard Gu Qingqu's cold voice, "Don't move."
Qin Yan stopped moving immediately. As soon as he finished speaking, bamboo leaves pierced into the body of each of Gu Qingqu like flowers scattered by a fairy, and immediately turned into smoke and fell to the ground.
Qin Yan then turned around and looked at Gu Qingqu at the door. He walked up and asked, "Why are you back?"
Gu Qingqu looked at him expressionlessly and said, "I'm lost."
Qin Yan was a little surprised when he heard this, "Can this broken place still trap you?"
Gu Qingqu turned around and left without telling him, but Qin Yan wouldn't let him go, so he quickly chased after him, "Let's go together."
Gu Qingqu did not speak either. Qin Yan asked him as they walked, "They didn't seem that powerful. Why didn't you kill them just now?"
Gu Qingqu replied, "This bamboo forest is its body, and every bamboo has the power of the Earth Spirit Pearl."
Qin Yan didn't understand what he meant, "You mean the Earth Spirit Pearl has been refined?"
Gu Qingqu didn't answer, so Qin Yan asked, "Why don't you say anything? Have you found where the Earth Spirit Pearl is?"
"Not Found"
"oh"
After walking for a while, Qin Yan couldn't walk anymore. His legs felt like they were filled with lead. He leaned against a bamboo tree, gasping for breath, and said to Gu Qingqu, "I can't walk anymore."
Gu Qingqu turned around and looked at him. Qin Yan said, "Let's find a place to rest."
Gu Qingqu said succinctly: "Poisoning, rest is useless"
Qin Yan asked: "Do you know how to detoxify?"
“I don’t know”
"What should we do then?"
Gu Qingqu looked at him and said nothing again, but Qin Yan understood what he meant by looking at his expression, "You want me to wait for death? I won't let you go even if I die."
Gu Qingqu said: "Tell your people to come down, I will find you an antidote, and you can go home after the poison is removed."
"No." Qin Yan refused without thinking after hearing his condition. "Just give me your memory. You don't need to find me an antidote. I will leave right away."
Gu Qingqu stopped talking and just looked at him. Qin Yan knew what his expression meant, but he still didn't give up. "Just promise me that I will never bother you again when you come down to earth to overcome the tribulation or get promoted, get rich, marry and have children. Otherwise, I will keep pestering you until you agree."
Qin Yan had completely forgotten the plan he had just made with Fu Ze.
Gu Qingqu still didn't speak, but his expression showed that he was determined. At this moment, Qin Yan suddenly had an idea, "Why don't you give me a copy of that memory? I don't want you to strip it off."
Gu Qingqu looked at him as if he was a fool. Qin Yan couldn't believe it. "You don't even agree to this?"
Gu Qingqu replied: "Our relationship is not yet at the point where we can share memories."
Qin Yan was stunned by these words. He quickly recalled the incident from Gu Qingqu's perspective. It was probably a bit weird. They had been fighting for hundreds of years and they hadn't met after peace. His journey to the mortal world to survive the tribulation was ruined by himself, and then he came to ask for his tainted memory. This seemed a bit unreasonable.
Qin Yan breathed a sigh of relief. He was the best at building good relationships with people. "Then let's become sworn brothers now. If you need anything from me in the future, I will definitely be the first to rush forward."
Gu Qingqu rejected him without hesitation, "No, there are plenty of horses in heaven."
"You haven't been to school either?" Qin Yan looked at him inexplicably, "This is a metaphor, not a real horse."
Gu Qingqu looked at him without saying anything. Qin Yan thought that this matter could not be rushed, so he might as well take it step by step. As long as the result was good, he could accept a bumpy process.
"Okay, then I won't talk about memorizing things for now." Qin Yan quickly changed his strategy, "Now let's talk about detoxification and the Earth Spirit Pearl."
Gu Qingqu said: "Tell your people to come down, I will find you an antidote, and you can go home after the poison is removed."
Qin Yan shook his head. "No, no, no. When I was leaving, my father told me to learn more from you, so I plan to follow you during this period of time."
Gu Qingqu changed his words, "Call your people down first, I'll find you an antidote."
After hearing what he repeated over and over again, Qin Yan rejected him again without hesitation, "No, I'll go with you."
Gu Qingqu looked at him, and Qin Yan explained: "Although my demon power has been sealed, my martial arts power is still there. Besides, more people can help each other and give advice when there is something. Of course, the most important thing is that without demon power, I can't call on my people. If you are willing to leave me here alone, then you can go."
Qin Yan could tell from Gu Qingqu's eyes that he really wanted to refuse, but for some reason he didn't say no. Since you didn't say no, then it's okay. Qin Yan smiled and said, "Gu Qingqu, you are such a nice person."
Gu Qingqu raised his foot and walked forward. Qin Yan took two steps and then remembered why they stopped just now. "I can't walk anymore. My legs are too heavy. The poison is taking effect."
Gu Qingqu looked back at him, and just before Gu Qingqu opened his mouth, Qin Yan said, "Do you know how to detoxify? Where can I find the antidote?"
Gu Qingqu replied: "Assimilation, in seven days you will also become a bamboo here, and the demonic power in your body will become the nutrient of the bamboo forest."
Qin Yan's eyes widened slightly, "How do you know?"
Gu Qingqu was silent as usual. He didn't answer as Qin Yan came up with the answer himself. Since this was the place where the Earth Spirit Pearl appeared, the heavenly soldiers must have found out the situation here.
"How do we detoxify?"
Gu Qingqu replied: "There is a spring ten meters below the center of the bamboo forest. The water flowing out of the spring is the antidote."
“It’s that simple”
Gu Qingqu said: "The bamboo forest is changing every moment, and the center point will naturally change with it."
Qin Yan frowned when he heard this, "Why is it so troublesome? Can't we just lift this bamboo forest?"
Gu Qingqu stopped talking again, so Qin Yan knew that he couldn't lift it, but he was still curious, "Why can't I lift it? Is there anyone protecting me here?"
Seeing that he was really curious, Gu Qingqu told him, "Because the spring is very fragile."
Qin Yan felt strange. Could a spring be fragile?
Gu Qingqu explained again, "That spring was formed by bamboo worms. Anyone who gets touched by magic power will die immediately."
"This is really amazing." Qin Yan heard for the first time that the spring in the bamboo forest was actually formed by bamboo worms. "The relationship between the bamboo worms and bamboos here is really...good."
Gu Qingqu said: "The fastest way is for you to wait here for me while I go find the antidote."
Qin Yan certainly knew that this was the best way, but he didn't care whether the poison could be cured or not. What he cared about was getting closer to Gu Qingqu, so he still insisted on his idea, "The bamboo forest is so big, what if you find the antidote but can't find me?"
“There is no such thing”
"Didn't Fuze find you? He's been up there for a long time."
Gu Qingqu glanced up at the sky, and his expression suddenly changed, which made Qin Yan very curious, "What's wrong?"
Gu Qingqu replied: "There is no one in the sky"
Qin Yan breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh, he is not a human, he is a snake demon"
Gu Qingqu gave him a serious look and said, "There is no demon either."
"Hmm?" Qin Yan understood in a flash, "He left me and ran away."
Gu Qingqu frowned slightly, and Qin Yan cursed, "This Fu Ze is too disloyal. He ran away when he was in danger." Then he looked at Gu Qingqu and said, "You are still the best. You are worthy of being the God of War. You have responsibilities and obligations."
A hint of helplessness appeared on Gu Qingqu's cold face, "He shouldn't have run away."
Qin Yan understood what he meant and smiled awkwardly, "Let's go, and come back to save him after we find the antidote."
Gu Qingqu turned around and walked away. Qin Yan followed him, but when he lifted his foot, he found something was wrong. His leg could not move, but his body had already tilted back and fell straight to the ground. Gu Qingqu heard the voice and turned around to look at him, "What's wrong with you?"
Qin Yan felt something was wrong. Something had grown out of his body. He immediately figured out what it was. It was a root. He quickly called out to Gu Qingqu, "Hurry up and pull me up!"
At this time Gu Qingqu also noticed that something was wrong with him, so he lifted him up by the shoulder with one hand and at the same time used a knife to cut off the roots growing on his body.
"Feet, there are also on the feet"
Qin Yan lifted his leg with all his strength and lifted his foot covered with roots off the ground. The moment he lifted it up, Gu Qingqu raised his knife and cut off the roots growing on his foot. The severed roots fell from his foot. Qin Yan changed his foot, and the moment his foot landed on the ground, he felt the roots coming out again.
“Cannot land”
