Two days later, late at night, in Changchun Temple, Taoist Gu sat beside the altar with a gray face.
Taoist Zhang on the altar was as angry as a gossamer, Fei Ruhu, Guan Qingxuan and Gong Yuye stood on the side and whispered comfort, while Milo's eyes were a little dull.
Taoist Zhang is dying.
Milo has long been aware of this matter. The Eastern Demon Sect calls itself Immortal Sect and Penglai Immortal Sect, and the people gathered within it are a group of monks who will do anything for the sake of immortality.
The Killing Sword Technique is one of the products of their process of researching the magical method of immortality. It is specifically targeted at individual vitality and can be regarded as an alternative way to reduce life span.
Zhang Daoren was already old. He took a blow from the killing sword and forced his magic power to suppress the Qingjiang water dragon with the Changchun Temple. It was normal for his life span to be exhausted.
Tonight, Taoist Gu borrowed the power of the evergreen vine to restore the vitality that Taoist Zhang had been cut off from.
But the evergreen vine itself has been cut off, so how can it save others?
He couldn't even suppress Dao Ren Zhang's injuries.
Milo found it hard to accept that such an old man who communicated with and guided him was about to leave.
On the other hand, Taoist Zhang woke up faintly. He looked at his surroundings, sat upright with difficulty, pointed at Taoist Gu and said, "I know my body well. It's the end of the road and there's no cure. Why should you do anything for me?" Injured Ivy’s vitality?”
When he said this, Zhang Daoren was already in a daze, and his chest and abdomen were twitching unconsciously. Those were the scars left by the killing sword technique, which was further devouring his vitality and energy.
Therefore, Taoist Zhang had been practicing for many years, and his condensed soul was also affected and he could not maintain his sanity. He looked around with confused eyes.
When he saw Fei Ruhu, he suddenly laughed, waved his hand and said: "Third Senior Sister, you said that the most helpless thing in life is that you can't choose how you live or how you die. You tell me, does it count? Does this count as choosing one’s own death? Immortals cherish their lives to save people, so if I die to save people this time, does it count as saying that this life is not in vain?”
When Zhang Daoren said this, his expression gradually calmed down, and he even smiled, and said softly: "I have been in a cage for a long time, and I cut off the golden lock to get rid of my body. My reputation is just a passer-by, but I will be in the dark tonight and feel happy. Go and rest... Go and rest." …
After saying this, Daoren Zhang's head dropped slightly, and the sword light rose up in his chest, which was dismissed by Daoren Gu with his backhand. He looked at the breathless Daoren Zhang, bowed and said: "Uncle, have a good journey."
The next day, when the magistrate of Qinghe County heard about Zhang Daoren's departure, he also took the time to come to Changchun to express his condolences.
But after expressing his condolences, he went out to visit Taoist Shanggu, Milo, Fei Ruhu and Gong Yuye, and even the seriously injured Guan Qingxuan was invited.
"Master Gu Guan, please have my condolences! But at this moment, we have some more important things."
"What's the matter?"
Taoist Gu was a little tired. The two days of rescue work, Taoist Zhang's departure, and the failure of the God-seeking parade. A series of things had made it difficult for Taoist Gu to support himself.
The magistrate of Qinghe County also knew about Taoist Gu's pain, but he couldn't think of any other way but to ask Taoist Gu for help.
"After Chilu left, twelve pregnant women disappeared in Qinghe County, plus nine children who were not yet one month old."
Gong Yuye, Fei Ruhu and Guan Qingxuan's expressions suddenly changed.
Milo suddenly thought of something and said, "The Purple River Chapter of the Taoist Sutra of Immortality."
After hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed again. Fei Ruhu couldn't help but said: "The Pure Heart Purple Boat Pill."
"Damn it!"
Taoist Gu slammed the table and whispered: "How dare they!"
"Although the Red Heart Purple Boat Pill is extremely harmful to Tianhe, it is indeed the first-class elixir between heaven and earth, especially for breaking through the realm of condensation. Even the materials are very convenient, aren't they? It's just a mere forty-eight lives... "
Guan Qingxuan, who had not recovered from his serious injury and had a bloodless face, spoke quietly. Everyone felt that the temperature around them dropped sharply, and there seemed to be the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling.
Gong Yuye gritted his teeth and said: "No wonder he wants to destroy the ritual. He wants to hold us back! Although the materials required for the Red Heart Purple Boat Pill are simple, they have high requirements on the environment and time. The time must be calculated well. , corresponding directions, and then find all the pregnant women with corresponding birthdays. If time is not enough, no one can be killed. This gives us enough time to save people..."
"It's too late."
As early as when Miluo said "The Purple River Chapter of the Taoist Sutra of Immortality", Taoist Gu was counting the hours with his fingers, but no matter how he calculated, the time was wrong: "The Feng Shui pattern of Qinghe County was originally dominated by water dragons from the Qingjiang River, but Master Lu established the Changchun Temple here three hundred years ago, using ivy to extend the ground veins and use the ground to press water, turning the layout of Qinghe Town into a layout surrounded by two dragons."
Having said this, Taoist Gu paused.
According to the changes in the original layout, the island where Changchun Temple is located should become a dragon ball born from the intersection of two dragons, absorbing the energy of the place.
But back then, after Lu Changchun established the Changchun Temple, he specially opened the spiritual acupoint, allowing most of the energy in the dragon beads to return to Qinghe County.
This is one of the reasons why there are few capable people in Changchun Guan since Lu Changchun.
The aura pattern of this place is destined that Changchun Temple can last for a long time, but it is difficult to stand out.
Thinking of this, Taoist Gu sighed secretly and continued: "Therefore, most of the people in Qinghe County live in the mountains and rivers, and there are many places suitable for alchemy around them, but the time is basically fixed, roughly around Mao hour two days later. "
The magistrate of Qinghe County nodded repeatedly. This was almost the same as the situation calculated by the Curse Court in the county. He said bluntly: "What Taoist Master Gu said is true, but we have calculated too many places and cannot be sure where it is. Does Taoist Master have any idea?" Method?"
Taoist Gu shook his head and said: "There is nothing I can do about this matter. There are too many places, and with the emergence of various convenient magical instruments and altars, their mobility is too strong. They can decide where to start in two days. Refining elixirs.”
Upon hearing this, the Qinghe County Magistrate also looked helpless.
If you can't know the opponent's alchemy place in advance, you can only keep people everywhere, but the opponent has at least three Jade Liquid Realm monks. If there are too few people left behind and their cultivation level is too low, they will die.
"I can find the location of Qingshui Weng!" Milo suddenly spoke, leaving everyone stunned. Then they saw Milo taking out a spiritual talisman, flicking his finger, and turning it into a spiritual light, floating in the air, pointing in a distant direction.
"Tracing Talisman? Brother Milo, when did you ingest the breath of Qing Shui Weng?"
"On that day, I received a spiritual response from the gods, and my accompanying treasure was stimulated and reflected the surrounding reality. I noticed that Qing Shui Weng's aura was wrong and had a twilight energy, so I paid more attention to it for a while and allowed its aura to leave a shadow in the mirror. Later, I discovered that something was wrong. , I specially left this aura behind and made this tracing talisman. As long as we follow the talisman's guidance, we will be able to find them."
"You said Qing Shuiweng has a lot of twilight energy in him?"
Gu Taoist had a good relationship with Qingshui Weng. Hearing Milo's words at this time, he couldn't help but repeat it.
After Milo explained the scene he reflected that day, Fei Ruhu said softly: "So, Qing Shuiweng chose to join forces with the Eastern Demon Cult for the sake of immortality? This is in line with the characteristics of the Eastern Demon Cult. They like it the most. The purpose is to bewitch monks like Qingshui Weng who are beginning to run out of life and long for immortality. Use them to gain benefits for themselves."
"In any case, Qing Shui Weng has strayed from the right path. We will set off immediately to capture him now."
After saying that, Mr. Gu Daoren braced himself up and said to the Qingshui County Magistrate: "I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my hand when I go here. If it causes casualties, please forgive me. Also, Miluo and the others are invited. Come here, everything this time has nothing to do with them."
The magistrate of Qinghe County heard what Gu Daoren meant and nodded: "If we can rescue all the people, that would be the best. If we can't rescue them, it's because I didn't know them well during my tenure and have little relationship with them." . If you need anything, please speak up. Although our Qinghe County is not a wealthy place, we still have some necessary materials in reserve, so we should be able to give you some help."
After hearing this, both Gong Yuye, Guan Qingxuan and Fei Ruhu looked much relieved, and they all said they didn't need it for the time being.
Milo, on the other hand, asked for some special spiritual incense. With Taoist Gu's surprised expression, he took out the jade official seal and silently sketched something.
Half a quarter of an hour later, the few people officially left Changchun Temple, following the connection of the breath, tracing the traces of Qingshui Weng's departure.
