No mercy, no hardship
"Brother," Qin Baoyao pulled his sleeve, "Brother, I'm really fine. Shi Yue's injury is much more serious than mine."
"How can it be the same?" Qin Jun said righteously.
Qin Baoyao covered her face: My brother is too unreasonable.
But she didn't dare say it. If she did, her brother would nag her for a long time.
Shi Yue listened to his senior brother's teachings silently, nodding his head constantly. When he finished, he humbly said, "It's my fault. This is my first time doing a mission with a junior sister, so I'm not familiar with it. I won't do it again next time."
"Will there be a next time?" Qin Jun glared at him.
"There won't be a next time!" Shi Yue promised obediently.
Qin Baoyao turned around, unable to bear to look. What were these two people doing? It was normal to get injured while doing a mission. Was there any need to make such a fuss?
After a lecture, and Shi Yue's good attitude, the blood on his body did not stop, and it was still flowing while he was lecturing. Qin Jun was relieved after the lecture and looked at him: "Treat the wound, what's the matter with bleeding so much."
Qin Baoyao closed her eyes and thought, forget it, they are both willing to fight and be beaten, and I can't get a word in.
As soon as Yu Ying saw Qin Baoyao, he wanted to go up and check her out, but his senior brother got there first.
After the eldest brother looked the man up and down and started scolding him, it was her turn to look at Qin Baoyao.
Fortunately, after an examination, it was found that he was not seriously injured. The biggest injury was the wound on his arm which had already been bandaged.
She opened it carefully, and found that the wound was treated well, so she re-bandaged it.
The other disciples following Qin Jun, after arriving at the scene, all wanted to check on the people lying on the ground, especially the medical disciples.
Before they could even take any action, the eldest brother started lecturing them and then attacked them indiscriminately, scaring them so much that they became like quails, not daring to move or speak, and even breathing very lightly.
He waited until he had finally finished scolding people before he dared to take action.
"However," Qin Jun, who finally felt relieved after scolding them, pointed at Yan Yuan and the other two lying on the ground, "What's wrong with these guys?"
Oh right...
"Brother, please take a quick look to see if there is anything wrong with their souls?" Qin Baoyao and Shi Yue were not sure whether the people who separated from them and then reunited were replaced by different people or possessed by other bodies. One reason was that they were afraid of alerting the enemy, and the other reason was that they could not find out anything. After all, Yan Yuan and the other three were also in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Qin Jun heard her words, squatted down, stretched out his hand and swept over Yan Yuan and the others, then said firmly: "They have not been possessed."
"He wasn't possessed by someone else... so he was replaced by someone else? Did he take the disguise pill?" Qin Baoyao touched his chin and thought.
"Don't worry about it, just let the brothers take a look and you'll know." After Shi Yue bandaged the wound with the help of others, he saw Qin Baoyao's expression and guessed what she was thinking. He walked to Qin Baoyao and tried to persuade her.
As soon as he finished speaking, the medical disciple who had worked with Yan Yuan had already followed the eldest brother's actions, squatted down to examine it, shook his head, and said affirmatively: "It's not a Disguise Pill, it's a Unity Pill."
"Tongxin Pill? What is that?" Qin Baoyao was confused. How come I have never heard of it before?
After the medical disciple finished the examination, he did not give Yan Yuan and the others any medicine or acupuncture.
Qin Baoyao looked at him disapprovingly: "You already know what it is, why don't you treat them?"
"Junior Sister Baoyao, I can't cure it." The man looked apologetic.
Qin Baoyao's eyes widened, and after thinking for a while, she patted Yu Ying and said, "Then Senior Sister, can you help me take a look?"
Yu Ying shook her head: "If it really is the Tongxin Pill, then I can't see any use for it, and I can't cure it."
"Ah?" Qin Baoyao was confused. Could it be that Senior Sister Yu Ying's medical skills couldn't cure this disease?
Seeing her expression, Yu Ying spread his hands and said, "It's not that I can't cure them, but if I do, it will affect their subsequent cultivation. Only Master can be sure to cure them without affecting their subsequent cultivation."
"So tricky? What exactly is this Tongxin Pill?" Qin Baoyao was shocked and even more curious after hearing this.
"It's normal that you haven't heard of it. This thing is what the Hehuan Sect likes to use. It is usually used by Taoist partners to restrain each other. The 'one heart, one heart' that means to be together forever." Yu Ying explained. She had only heard of it and had never seen it. If she was asked to check, she might not be able to find it out.
Thinking of this, she also looked curiously at her fellow disciples who had found out that Yan Yuan and the others had been poisoned by the Tongxin Pill.
Seeing several people looking at him, the man scratched his head and said, "My former Taoist partner once gave me this thing to eat."
Instantly becoming more curious, Qin Baoyao and the others' eyes widened when they heard his words.
"That's not right, Senior Brother Liang, aren't you single?" The disciple who was familiar with him asked in surprise.
"Former Taoist companion," the man called Senior Brother Liang glared at the other man and said, "You are the one who talks too much."
"When I was young and ignorant, I met a girl, and then we took this thing. Later, the girl fell in love with others and wanted to hug him left and right. I disagreed, so she asked me to find a way to remove the ties between the Heart-to-Heart Pills. So I saw it when I checked." Senior Brother Liang continued, "The Heart-to-Heart Pills and the Heart-to-Heart Mantra have similar effects. Moreover, there is a saying that between pills and mantras, there is a principle. What Yan Yuan and the others have is a child pill. I have to find the mother pill and treat them at the same time. Only then will I have a 70% chance of success. Without the mother pill, I only have a 20% chance of success. So Master must come to treat it."
"This doesn't sound like a pill, but more like a Gu." Qin Baoyao said while nodding after listening to the explanation.
"It's true that it's a Gu," Senior Brother Liang added, "because it's more convenient than the Heart-to-Heart Curse, that's why the Hehuan Sect likes to use it."
Yu Ying added, "This thing isn't a good one. Most serious medical practitioners wouldn't refine it. Only the medical practitioners of the Hehuan Sect like to refine it."
"A lot?" When Qin Baoyao heard this, she thought of the strange people in the city and was a little worried that they were all because of eating this thing.
"Theoretically speaking, not many. It's not easy to refine, and the Hehuan Sect can't afford one for everyone. However, ordinary medical practitioners have heard of this thing but have rarely seen it. I am the same." Yu Ying said. If she had checked just now, she might not have been able to detect it.
"Will you be controlled after eating it?" Qin Baoyao asked, thinking about the behavior of Yan Yuan and the other three after they reunited.
"It is said that after eating it, one can communicate with each other's minds." Yu Ying said with a hint of doubt based on the records in the books he had read before.
"In the early stages, it's not about being controlled. Instead, one will become more and more trusting and dependent on the person who took the Mother Pill. After reaching a certain level, the person will be controlled. However, this can only be achieved if the affection becomes deeper and deeper." Senior Brother Liang explained their doubts based on his own symptoms back then.
After hearing this, Qin Baoyao always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
There's nothing we can do then. We can only wait until we bring the person back to the Guiyi Sect and then ask Uncle Bai Qing for help.
After checking the other unconscious people, the other disciples were all preparing to report with struggle and doubt on their faces.
Finally, it was Yu Ying, the senior sister of Yaofeng, who spoke first: "Senior Brother, it seems that there is demonic energy in these people's bodies."
After she spoke first, the other disciples also began to talk at once.
After all, among the medical practitioners present, Yu Ying has the highest level of cultivation and the worst medical skills. She said there is demonic energy, so we should not have made a wrong diagnosis.
What the other disciples said was also not completely certain, and they all used words with probability such as "doubt", "guess", "possible", and "perhaps".
After hearing Yu Ying and the others' diagnosis of Yan Yuan and the others, Qin Baoyao thought for a moment and decided to share her own guess: "Brother, there's something wrong with the people in this city."
After hearing this, the others also thought of the people lying along the way, and they scattered instantly, each running in a different direction. Not long after, they all came back with heavy faces.
"Those people are probably the same." It is still an uncertain conclusion.
The same what? The same demonic energy in the body?
Qin Jun's face changed suddenly, and he instantly realized the seriousness of the matter, which was much more serious than he had imagined. He hurriedly took out the sound stone and passed the message to the sect.
Then they began to worry about how to control so many people. This was not a matter of a few, dozens or even hundreds of people. There were at least more than 200,000 people in this city.
When Qin Baoyao heard her fellow medical practitioners say that those people probably had traces of demonic energy invading their bodies, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and feel fortunate: Fortunately, she and Shi Yue acted decisively and thought of giving them medicine at the first moment. Although they were cultivators and should not attack ordinary people, otherwise it would easily cause panic, but if the people of this city really had traces of demonic energy in their bodies, then when they were completely possessed by the devil, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Everyone present also realized the seriousness of the matter, but some of them looked at Qin Baoyao and thought: It's a good thing I followed her, I finally found new evidence against her.
"How long can these people remain unconscious?" Qin Jun asked. He wanted to make sure that these people would not go to other cities for the time being.
In order to be on the safe side, Qin Baoyao gave a little more of the medicine, for fear that ordinary people would cause trouble when fighting against Guan Sha and the others.
She raised her hand: "Maybe, probably, probably, three days."
Hearing her words, the medical disciples who had examined the people in the city covered their faces and did not want to speak.
Three days? Three days? Three days? Double it is almost the same.
Junior Sister Baoyao's attack was really ruthless, but they also thought that after all, these people were mortals, not cultivators. As Qin Baoyao was not a medical disciple, she could actually see from the diagnosis results that she had already gained some control, but it was still not enough. The amount was enough to make the cultivators unconscious for five or six hours.
After hearing Qin Baoyao's words and seeing the expressions of the medical disciples, Qin Jun fell silent. He suspected that his sister was being too conservative and that it would probably be longer than she said.
But it's just right, it can give them more time to deal with it, and they don't have to worry about ordinary people suddenly waking up and making trouble with them.
