Chapter 134 Is Chenyu feeling better?
It went quite smoothly.
Xu Xingxing opened his eyes again, but before he could come to his senses, his consciousness was pulled away by the restless red soul outside his consciousness.
The red light was beating and flickering restlessly like a heart, making it difficult for Xu Xingxing to open his eyes.
She hurriedly put her hand on it, but it wasn't enough, so she simply pressed her whole body against it, smiling and saying, "Look, does it hurt? It really doesn't hurt. Your wife is really good at it."
The red soul wrapped around her softly, then slowly settled into a soft light pink.
Xu Xingxing stayed close to him for a while, then kissed him and pulled away.
Trapped in the Baiyun Room, Wei Yuan opened his eyes slightly, and the tips of his ears slowly turned a beautiful red.
.
Before Xu Xingxing could figure out the circumstances of her possession this time, Shi Chen's order came down.
The summary is as follows:
1. From today onwards, anyone who approaches the alchemy room, regardless of their realm, will be killed without mercy!
Second, from today onwards, all disciples in the mountain must concentrate on practicing Taoism and must not leave their own courtyards without permission. Those who are not fasting may go to the dining hall at specific times. If anyone is found wandering around without reason, they will be killed without mercy, regardless of the reason!
When this news came out, all the Taoist priests in the mountain were in an uproar, but Shi Chen's style of doing things has always been ruthless, so everyone could only criticize him in their hearts and do as he said.
Xu Xingxing heard this order: ...
I think there are too many disciples in this mountain, and it is not convenient to check them one by one, so they just use this one-size-fits-all approach.
But I have to say that her path was really blocked instantly.
Fortunately, the alchemy furnace can only be burned again in two days. During this period, Wei Yuan should be safe, and she has enough time to find a solution.
Looking out from the half-open window, she saw that the courtyard she was in was not small, with rows of houses arranged in an orderly manner. Many Taoists lived in them. It happened that dinner time was almost approaching, and they were going to the dining hall in groups of three or four to have their meal.
Her door suddenly opened, and a young Taoist priest leaned halfway in and asked, "Chenyu, are you feeling better? Can I bring you some food?"
Xu Xingxing then realized that he had several old wounds bandaged on his body. He moved a little and although it was still a little painful, it was within the tolerable range. So he said, "Much better. Let's go together."
So we went to the canteen together.
The road was heavily guarded, and the Taoists who were moving around were all under strict surveillance. They could only move forward along the strictly planned route and could not deviate at all.
Xu Xingxing looked around and thought to himself:
Logically speaking, according to the law of possession that Wei Yuan had mentioned before, she would automatically look for someone close to him to possess, so she initially thought that she would possess the person who was escorting Wei Yuan.
As a result, not only did it attach itself to a low-level Taoist priest last time, but it also took several hours before I could see him again.
This made her unsure.
When she was in the princess's mansion, she did not possess the princesses or male favorites who were closer to him. According to Ju Yuan, it was because he did not like those people and his soul would subconsciously reject them.
But there were probably at least thirty or forty people in the alchemy room at that time. How could he dislike all of them?
It’s normal to dislike it, but are there other reasons?
For example, this time, she had no idea when she would have the chance to see Wei Yuan again. If she just waited, wouldn’t she be wasting her time?
Thinking this way, he soon arrived at the dining hall, took his meal, and ate with the young Taoist priest.
Soon, the place around them was filled with people.
At first, the people around were chatting about other things, but later they inevitably mentioned what happened in the alchemy room today.
"Hey, have you heard?" One person looked at the guard at the cafeteria door and whispered.
"You're talking about..." The other person also lowered his voice, his tone full of shock, "Is it true? It's too mysterious. What on earth is that? A ghost?"
"How dare a ghost come here?" someone nearby questioned.
"Of course it's not an ordinary evil spirit!" The man bent down, "I heard it killed several uncles in the Void Refinement Realm. Even our elders couldn't catch it. With such a cultivation level, it must have been a powerful being when it was alive!"
Xu Xingxing stuffed the food into her mouth calmly. She had been taking good care of herself recently. When she was injured, Wei Yuan had given her all kinds of delicacies and elixirs, which helped her recover a lot of the cultivation she had lost due to the breaking of the contract.
Even if she encountered a cultivator in the combined state, with her skills and the support of Hou Yuan's spirit, she was confident that she could win, not to mention those cultivators in the virtual realm.
At that time, she only picked on the weak.
Someone nearby took over and said, "I heard it jumped into the alchemy furnace. That alchemy furnace can even refine souls... Could it be that its soul has... been shattered?"
"If he's already dead, why is he making such a fuss now?" one person analyzed. "I think... it's hard to say."
Some people were terrified: "Could it be among us..."
"Bah! You have such a bad mouth!"
"Hey, Chenyu, why did you come out to eat alone today? Are you feeling better?" Suddenly a Taoist priest from a distance spoke to her.
Xu Xingxing raised her eyes and looked over, saying, "Much better. I just happened to want to get some fresh air."
"By the way, Chen Yu knows a lot. What do you think this evil spirit is?"
Xu Xingxing, whose name was called, thought for a moment and said, "This is the first time I've seen such a situation. I wonder if this method of sealing will be effective against that evil spirit."
"Yeah... What if that evil spirit possesses the patrolmen? What should we do?"
"Possessing the patrolman is a small matter. If he possesses someone close to the elder, or the guard of the medicine garden—"
"What are you talking about!" A guard suddenly stretched his neck to look over here, "Are you going to eat or not? If not, get out of here!"
Everyone quickly hunched their necks and started eating.
After dinner, Xu Xingxing finally realized one benefit of possessing this person.
The young Taoist priest who had been accompanying her suddenly asked her, "Isn't it time for you to change your medicine today? Go back to your room and rest. I'll go call a doctor for you."
Xu Xingxing blinked and said, "Don't bother, I can go by myself."
The young Taoist looked at her for a moment and nodded: "You are almost well now. We can go. I will go with you."
Xu Xingxing refused directly: "I just issued an order today. You accompanying me will attract too much attention. I'll go and come back quickly."
The young Taoist looked at her for a moment and said, "Okay."
After she talked to the guard beside her, the guard naturally did not allow her to go alone, so he assigned someone to go with her.
Xu Xingxing went to the herbal medicine hall in the mountains with the guard.
The guard was obviously not familiar with the Taoist priest she possessed, so she could let go of her true nature and started chatting with the guard along the way.
In the end, I was able to find out some useful information, such as the location of the medicine garden.
After finding that she could not get any other information, she walked to a secluded place, took advantage of the guard's unpreparedness, raised her hand and slashed him unconscious, then hid him, clapped her hands and prepared to leave.
Who knew that as soon as I came out of that corner, I saw the young Taoist leaning against the wall not far away, looking over here.
He was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with slightly sharp features, and his rustic yellow-brown Taoist robe made him look very flamboyant.
I was careless.
When did you come here?
The talisman the Taoist priest was holding between his fingers to conceal his aura slowly burned out. His slightly gloomy eyes looked straight at her and asked coldly, "Evil ghost?"
Xu Xingxing smiled and said nothing: "Are you going to faint by yourself, or should I do it?"
"Where is Chen Yu?!" The Taoist priest suddenly stood up straight, clenched his fists, and his knuckles turned white.
Xu Xingxing looked at the man in front of him, whose expression was three parts fear, three parts anger, and four parts fearlessness, and couldn't help but admire:
So, this illusion is too real! The NPCs are not human at all, it's a one-to-one reproduction of reality.
She replied frankly: "Not dead yet."
But it will probably be soon, because she is going to die.
"Let him go, and possess my body!" The Taoist took an eager step forward. "I have all my limbs intact, I'm strong, and... I'm not injured yet. Using me will benefit you even more!"
The boy's eyes were red with anxiety, as if he would burst into tears on the spot if she refused.
Xu Xingxing stared at him for a while, then put away his playful expression and asked, "Since you've discovered it, why don't you report it to me?"
The young man frowned and replied, "If I tell on you, will you come out of Chen Yu's body?"
"No, it will be a fight to the death." Seeing the young man's eyes tremble in vain, Xu Xingxing changed his mind and said, "But won't they find a way to expel me?"
There was a flicker of mockery in the young man's eyes, and he sneered, "Let alone whether they can really expel the evil spirits that even the alchemy furnace cannot refine. Even if they can, who would waste such energy on us, lowly Taoist priests?"
Xu Xingxing said directly: "Are you Chengxu people so cold-blooded? The lowly Taoist priests are also human beings."
The young man looked at her suspiciously, and she realized that something was wrong with her words. She spread her hands and added, "Don't look at me. I am your enemy, so of course I don't care about your lives."
The young Taoist priest's eyes darkened slightly as he said, "Senior, what revenge do you want? If I can help, I will do my best. I only ask that you let Chen Yu go!"
Although she didn't expect him to help, there would be no harm in telling him. Xu Xingxing said in a slightly cold tone: "My husband was caught by them and is now imprisoned in the alchemy room. How can you help me?"
After that, he looked at the setting sun and returned to his original question: "I won't waste time on you. Do you want to faint on your own or do you want me to do it?"
Seeing her expression becoming more serious, the young man suddenly fell to his knees and held up three fingers. "I, Luo Yan, swear to heaven that if I tell even a single lie, I will be struck by lightning! Chen Yu was seriously injured because he saved me. I will never abandon him. I hope that Senior will grant me this!"
As he said that, he slammed his head hard on the ground, which scared Xu Xingxing.
Xu Xingxing looked at the figure on the ground for a while, then walked over to him and squatted down. "You help me, aren't you afraid that Shi Chen will execute you?"
"Chen Yu and I have long felt that Chengxu is now filled with vile and cruel things. However, after joining the sect, we have no choice. People around us regard human life as worthless. We can only stick to our conscience..." The young man suddenly raised his head. "If I can help you, senior, it will be considered a good deed. Luo Yan has no regrets."
Xu Xingxing looked into the man's eyes, tilted his head slightly and said, "If you dare to lie to me, your friend will die. When I wake up again, I will be able to kill you."
"I guarantee it with my life!"
"Okay." Xu Xingxing stood up. "You go back first. I'll go check some things and bring your friend back tonight."
The young man suddenly straightened up and asked, "Senior, are you going to the medicine garden?"
Xu Xingxing tilted his head slightly but didn't say anything.
"I used to work in the medicine garden. I'm familiar with that place."
