Seeing this, Lin Wanqing couldn't help but feel scared.
She wasn't stupid either. From the water spirit rat's eyes, she felt the water spirit rat's aggression.
This kind of monster will not hurt people for no reason, especially if it has a master, so there is only one answer, what did the water spirit rat find?
Xu Yang also realized this, and quickly communicated with the beast control card in the storage bag and asked: "Xiaoqiang, what's wrong?"
The consciousness of the water spirit rat came over: "Master, it is the devil's energy, the breath of the devil's cultivator. Is this woman a devil's cultivator?"
Lin Wanqing is a demon cultivator?
Xu Yang thought it was impossible.
But he realized what the gray-brown thing in Lin Wanqing's body was, it was demonic energy.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, have you ever seen anyone with the aura of a demonic cultivator in the toxins in their body?"
"Demon cultivator!" Lin Wanqing frowned: "I was out yesterday and saw many people, but I didn't have any conflicts with them."
"That's strange. Your toxin may be triggered by the demonic energy, causing the toxin to explode!"
Xu Yang analyzed.
"What should we do?"
"I can only try to treat you. Whether it works or not depends on your luck."
Next, Xu Yang inputted wood spiritual power as before.
However, with this layer of demonic energy blocking the treatment, the treatment effect is obviously much worse.
The effect is not even 30% as good as before.
"It works, but not much, and it makes me more tired."
Xu Yang looked at Lin Wanqing with complicated eyes. He hoped that Lin Wanqing would recognize the reality and that he would not help her all the time.
He also had to practice and had other things to do. Lin Wanqing's death was almost certain.
'unless…………'
Xu Yang thought of a possibility.
Currently, his Mu Shui Ling Jue Qi Nourishing Technique is at the Great Perfection level! !
If you can enter the master level, maybe the treatment effect will be better.
But upgrading requires 6,000 attribute values, which is not a small amount of money, even if the attribute value has reached about 4,000 now.
During this period, although he obtained the Microscopic Spiritual Planting Technique, he never spent any attribute points to learn it.
The purpose is to upgrade this Qi nourishing technique.
But to be fair, he had done his best to help Lin Wanqing until now.
Lin Wanqing also knew that her end was coming, so she squeezed out a smile and said: "I am very satisfied that Fellow Daoist Xu has been able to do this for me. It's just my bad luck... Fellow Daoist Xu, please rest assured that I will not trouble you again in the future. "
"You have been infected by the aura of a demon cultivator, which means that the presence of a demon cultivator in Fang City may be related to the jade-faced scholar. If you don't mind, I will arrange for the Water Spirit Rat to follow you, so that it will be clear who the demon cultivator is."
Xu Yang suggested.
At this point, he was not thinking about Lin Wanqing.
But for yourself.
Although everyone now knows that it was Wang Xuqiang who killed the jade-faced scholar, everyone also knows that it was Xu Yang who called Wang Xuqiang.
The jade-faced scholar's friend couldn't take revenge on Wang Xuqiang, so it was possible to vent his anger on him! !
This is very possible.
The other party will deal with Lin Wanqing first, and after Lin Wanqing is dead, the next step will be to deal with him.
So now helping Lin Wanqing find the demon cultivator is equivalent to helping herself.
"Okay, now that the eldest lady is in retreat, should I tell the rest of the Xu family?" Lin Wanqing suggested.
Xu Yang shook his head directly and said: "The Xu family is very complicated inside. There might be a traitor. Besides, if the demon cultivator thing makes a big fuss, it will only alert the enemy! So you are better off just standing still now! In the meantime, I I will continue to protect your life until the demonic cultivator can’t bear it anymore and attacks you again!”
"Thank you so much, fellow Taoist Xu."
Xu Yang sighed after sending Lin Wanqing away. To be fair, Lin Wanqing was a good woman, but it was a pity that she was so beautiful.
As soon as Lin Wanqing left, Xu Yang secretly told the Water Spirit Rat to follow Lin Wanqing! !
These days, the Water Spirit Rat has dug holes extending in all directions underground in this city. It can easily follow Lin Wanqing back to where she lives.
Then, it was time to wait.
"Husband, how did you treat Lin Wanqing? Why did she seem to be in a bad mood when she left?" Lin Yuxing's eyes were puzzled. When she saw Xu Yang coming out, she took Xu Yang's arm and asked softly.
Xu Yang talked briefly, and finally said: "I am also trying to catch that demon cultivator and barely save her life."
Shen Manyun came over and said, "So that's it. I just asked sister Yu'er whether you have any thoughts about Lin Wanqing."
Xu Yang: "..."
"Fellow Daoist Shen, you are talking nonsense again."
"There's nothing you can do about it. Who makes you so charming, Fellow Daoist Xu? Moreover, when you treat Lin Wanqing, you are so ambiguous that some men can't handle it."
Xu Yang said seriously: "Nonsense, I, Xu Yang, am very serious."
"That's good, Fellow Daoist Shen, as we said before, if you look for me again, you won't be able to take the sick ones."
Shen Manyun breathed a sigh of relief and said half-jokingly.
Xu Yang's face straightened up and he rubbed Shen Manyun's buttocks hard.
"oops!"
Shen Manyun's eyes were blurred and he muttered: "What are you doing? Really, I'm going to cook."
As he spoke, he swung his hips and entered the house.
Xu Yang followed directly, preparing to teach Shen Manyun a lesson.
Lin Yu was speechless and secretly thought that Yun'er might not be able to get out of bed today.
You said you had nothing to do to provoke your husband? Don't you know he's suddenly in a mess right now?
Shaking her head, she cleared the counter. At this time, a child timidly walked to the door and poked his head.
"Hey, isn't this Li Wan? Why are you here? Where are your parents?"
Lin Yu walked over with a smile.
The child who came was none other than Li Wan, Li Dayong's daughter.
Li Wan held a small cloth bag in her hand, her big eyes sparkling, and said: "Sister Yu, the spiritual stones in this are obtained by selling the hornworm corpses. My mother said that these were killed by Brother Xu." , should be given to him.”
Lin Yu smiled: "It's for you."
"no."
Hearing the sound, Xu Yang pulled up his pants, leaving only Shen Manyun with a resentful look on his face.
"I'll come as soon as I go."
"Hurry up, I'll be in trouble." Shen Manyun complained, and then started cooking.
After Xu Yang came out, he was very happy. Li Wan even gave him a spiritual stone.
He guessed that Li Dayong and his wife should be nearby, otherwise it would be unsafe to let the children bring so many spiritual stones.
Xu Yang persuaded Li Wan to accept the spirit stone and summoned Li Dayong to pick up the child.
After a while, Li Dayong and his wife came over awkwardly.
"Brother Li, as I said last time, these belong to Li Wan, so there is no need to be polite to me."
Li Dayong looked embarrassed, and Xu Yang noticed that he might have something to say.
"Brother Li, what's the matter with you?"
Li Dayong looked respectful, nodded and said: "This is Li Wan, Xu Yang, can I ask you a favor? You know a lot of people now, can you find a trade for my daughter in the Xu family? Li Wan is quite talented. Yes, I don’t want her to follow us all her life and become a farmer again.”
Li Wan looked at Xu Yang and twisted her little hands.
This child is very smart. These days, she has learned from her parents that Brother Xu Yang is no longer the poor casual cultivator before, but a powerful and well-connected shopkeeper.
This made her feel admiration and respect, so she looked at Xu Yang nervously, wondering if Xu Yang's brother would help.
Xu Yang thought for a while and felt something in his heart.
A few days ago, the puppet master Huda asked him to help introduce apprentices.
"I don't know if his girls will accept him."
It's okay if he doesn't accept it. Then he can talk to Shopkeeper Xu and ask her to help in Shopkeeper Xu's shop.
So, Xu Yang agreed without hesitation.
He Qionglian was so excited that she cried and bowed her head repeatedly to thank her.
"Sister-in-law, you're welcome. It just so happens that a good friend of mine asked me to help introduce an apprentice to him as a puppet master!"
Xu Yang pointed to a puppet shop diagonally opposite.
Xu Yang smiled and said, "It's just right. It's close to my place. I'll go ask for you."
"Thank you very much."
Considering that the store is very close to Xu Yang, Xu Yang can take care of his daughter if anything happens, so the couple is naturally willing to do so.
…………
…………
"Hi yo, hi yo!!"
In the puppet shop, Huda was hammering a battle puppet that had been burned by fire and severely damaged. It looked like someone had brought it in for repairs.
Sensing Xu Yang's entrance, Huda didn't even raise his head: "Fellow Daoist Xu, there is tea on the table. Pour it yourself... Hey, hey!!"
Xu Yang smiled. It was the first time he saw Huda's hospitality.
Fortunately, Xu Yang is used to it, and Hu Da is not bad in nature.
"Fellow Daoist Hu, I got it for you last time you asked me to do it, here you go!"
Xu Yang called Li Wan outside the door to come in.
The little girl is only twelve years old now, but she is already tall and slim, about 1.53 meters tall.
Although the clothes on his body are ordinary, he is clean, his fair face is as round as an egg, and his eyes are clear, transparent and full of agility.
After hearing this, Huda stopped what he was doing, threw away the tools, and walked over excitedly, looking up and down.
"Um, girl??"
Xu Yang said: "You don't mind? This girl is twelve years old. She is now at the first level of Qi training. Her talent is actually quite good, but her family background is average. Otherwise, her cultivation level will definitely..."
Xu Yang wanted to praise him more, but Huda interrupted him rudely: "Fellow Taoist Xu, there is no need to say more. I believe you are a good person and will not introduce ordinary people here."
Xu Yang: "..."
Okay, you didn’t expect me to be so popular?
Huda continued: "Well, although she is a girl, I am a puppet master and don't care about boys or girls. Speaking of which, my master will also be a woman."
"That's great. Why don't you let this child study here for a while? I can provide food and accommodation."
Xu Yang took the initiative.
Huda smiled and said: "Fellow Daoist Xu, what do you mean? From now on, when she studies with me, she will be my apprentice, and my apprentice still asks you to take care of me, so where can I, the master, put my face?"
"I'm quite rude." Xu Yang chuckled.
Then, Huda asked Li Wan some things, including his name, parents, and where he lived.
Although Li Wan is young, she answers questions fluently.
Huda was very satisfied: "Okay, very good, you look very smart at first glance!"
"Fellow Daoist Hu, look..."
"Haha, starting from today, Li Wan, you can study here. Well, just from the beginning, help me tidy up the shop, clean the house, and then identify these parts and tools..."
Li Wan was overjoyed, she knew that today was the day her destiny changed! !
In the future, she will not follow the old path of her parents and become a low-level spiritual husband with her face turned to the earth and her back to the sky.
She immediately knelt down on her knees and nodded heavily: "Master, disciple, please accept my three bows!"
"Hahaha, easy to say, easy to say."
Xu Yang raised his hands and clasped his fists towards Hu Da at the right time: "Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Hu for accepting a disciple. You should treat me to a drink."
"Definitely, definitely, in three days, I, Huda, will hold a banquet to recruit disciples..."
After Huda finished speaking, he changed the subject: "But, Li Wan, you have to study hard next. I'll give you three months to become familiar with all the accessories and tools here. If you can't learn well, it means you are in the same lineage as my puppet master." No luck, don’t blame me for expelling you from the school when the time comes.”
