"The situation was critical, and I knew I couldn't carry it on, so I asked Yu Rou to leave quickly and find a way to find reinforcements. I also took the opportunity to lean towards the two monks and said: 'Two, going on like this is not an option. We have to find a way to escape!' '"
"One of the monks said: 'Thank you for your help, senior. I'm Zhang Hu. This is Song Yingjie. I haven't asked senior how to call me?'"
Cheng Ling was startled, stood up suddenly, and said, "Zhang Hu and Song Yingjie turned out to be the two of them. What happened next?"
I said, "This is no place for talking. We need to escape quickly!"
The two men nodded in agreement, and immediately took out dozens of talismans from the storage rings and threw them at the men in black. Taking this opportunity, the monk named Zhang Hu sacrificed a flying fairy weapon. After Song Yingjie and I sat on it, we galloped towards the south.
Unfortunately, the talismans they threw were too low-grade and did not do much damage to the man in black. They caught up with him again within a moment.
Those men in black are extremely fast and their flying fairy weapons are not of high quality. They are about to be caught up. Unexpectedly, they still have many talismans on them. Every once in a while, when the men in black catch up to them, they will throw them out again. Dozens of talismans, seemingly endless.
Although the power of the talismans was limited, it would be troublesome if there were too many of them. The men in black did not dare to chase them too close, but just hung them from a distance. And I found that they didn’t seem to want to kill the two of them, but wanted to capture them alive!
As they fled all the way, they gradually moved away from the dense forest. The scenery under their feet became more and more desolate, and their vision gradually broadened. This time, it is more convenient for the man in black to track. Zhang Hu regretted and said: "Damn it, I should have known better not to go through the dense forest. There is no way to escape in such an environment. Yingjie, how many talismans do you have left!"
"There aren't many left, less than a hundred."
Zhang Hu sighed: "Senior, we have caused trouble for you, you should leave first! Their target is us, if you can escape this disaster, you will be rewarded!"
I knew I couldn't escape, so I asked, "You are from the star realm. Do you know Cheng Ling?"
Zhang Hu was startled, then suddenly woke up and asked: "Senior, do you know my master?"
"Master, only now did I know that Zhang Hu is your disciple!"
Cheng Ling was so anxious that he didn't care about Zhang Chu's apology and asked, "What happened next? Did you escape?"
"No, the flying fairy weapon continued to fly for several days, and those men in black kept chasing behind it. They didn't seem to be in a hurry, and just followed at a short distance. We all felt something was wrong, but we didn't know what the problem was."
"At this moment, the flying immortal weapon seemed to have hit something and stopped suddenly. I heard Zhang Hu say: 'Damn it, there is a ban here. Senior, leave quickly! We can't escape. Please help bring the news to the master, and he will definitely help us take revenge!'"
"I hesitated in my heart, and I really wanted to escape from there. But then the black-clothed monks caught up with me. One of the leaders sneered and said: 'It's so stupid to escape in the direction of the Demon Spirit Land, which saved us a lot of effort. .'"
He glanced at the three of us, pointed at Zhang Hu and Song Yingjie and said, "These two are staying. As for you, you can only blame yourself for your bad fate!"
After saying that, they were ready to take action. At the critical moment, Zhang Hu looked up to the sky and roared, and the huge sound wave suddenly rang in my ears, making my head buzz.
Immediately afterwards, he and Song Yingjie threw out all the talismans on their bodies and shouted to me: "Senior, please leave quickly. You must bring the news to my master!"
I hesitated for a moment and finally escaped. The men in black were not willing to give in. The leader among them used a short sword that was about an inch long and penetrated my abdomen directly! I gritted my teeth and endured, finally escaping from their pursuit.
But within a few days, my wounds began to rot, and the meridians all over my body seemed to be on fire. Every time I moved, the pain increased, and later I fainted!
"Fortunately, Yurou and I both had each other's marks on our bodies. With the help of weak spiritual senses, we were able to find my location and lead us all the way back to Dijiang City. But the injuries on my body became more and more serious, and later on I even became more and more dissipated. It emits a strong stench that cannot be driven away no matter what method is used.”
"The monks in the wine shop were very dissatisfied with this, and the waiter urged us to leave. But I couldn't move at all, so I could only ask Yurou to add more spices in the guest room to cover up the stench, and then closed the door, which delayed the arrival of the young master!"
At this point, Zhang Chu finally told the whole story, with a trace of exhaustion in his eyes and breathing heavily.
Cheng Ling was anxious. Zhang Hu and Song Yingjie had already ascended to the immortal world. Jian Yinghao, Liu Qingyan, Su Yi, and Xie Feng had higher cultivation levels and should ascend before them. It is conceivable that several people are also in crisis.
Zhang Hu and Song Yingjie must be found as soon as possible. Only they know the current situation of the Luochen Sword Sect. But Zhang Chu was seriously injured. Although he didn't rescue the two people, he tried his best. He couldn't let it go.
He immediately took action and lifted the quilt covering him. Suddenly, a strong stench filled the room. Cheng Ling looked carefully and saw that Zhang Chu's abdomen was in a mess, his clothes were torn, all the rotten flesh was exposed, and even white bones could be seen.
"The dagger didn't just hit the abdomen, why were both legs rotted?"
Yurou on the side explained: "Young master, at first the big shopkeeper only started to have ulcers in his abdomen, and even after taking many healing pills, it didn't get better. Later, the rotten area gradually expanded and spread to the whole body. He could only temporarily close the meridians of the upper body, but the lower body could not heal. It is inevitable.”
Cheng Ling nodded, put two fingers on Zhang Chu's arm, and slowly injected the vitality in his body.
Zhang Chu was shocked all over, and the severe pain made him scream out in surprise. A stream of immortal energy is instinctively produced within the body to expel the power of life.
Cheng Ling's expression changed. He clicked with two fingers and fired dozens of restraints, sealing his Dantian and meridians. He said, "You have to be patient. If you don't find the root cause of the disease, it will be difficult to cure it."
Zhang Chu blinked his eyes to express his understanding.
Cheng Ling took a deep breath and injected vitality into his body again. Soon, Zhang Chu's pupils shrank, and cold sweat continued to appear on his forehead like a waterfall, obviously suffering from great pain. Cheng Ling seemed not to have seen him, and his mind circled around his body with the power of vitality.
As the power of life continued to be injected, the stench in the room became stronger and stronger, and traces of dark black liquid emerged from the rotting flesh. Later, more and more accumulated, almost flowing all over the entire bed.
After a long time, Cheng Ling took back his finger, and the ban on Zhang Chu was lifted. The latter took a long breath and obviously felt much more comfortable. Yurou hurriedly stepped forward, changed the bedding and bed, and carefully helped Zhang Chu clean up his body.
Cheng Ling nodded slightly. Judging from Yurou's posture, it was obvious that she had a close relationship with Zhang Chu. Thinking about it, he was a grown man, and it was rare for him to have such a considerate woman to take care of him when he was seriously injured.
Yurou moved very quickly, and she had already finished cleaning up before it took her a cup of tea. She lit up the incense, which diluted the stench in the room a little. But Cheng Ling frowned when he saw Zhang Chu's condition.
Zhang Chu's exposed skin has returned to its normal color under the nourishment of vitality. But within just a short period of time, it began to become dull again. It was obvious that the black matter had not been completely expelled and was quickly regenerated.
Cheng Ling stopped Yurou who was busy and came to the edge of the bed, slowly inputting the power of life again. This time, he observed more carefully, and after a while, he finally found a black substance covering Zhang Chu's abdomen.
The black substance is very tenacious, and each impact of the vitality force can only dissipate a very small part, and it quickly regroups after being dissipated, and the strands of black substance emitted continue to corrode the muscles, meridians, and internal organs.
Cheng Ling was immediately confused. He had never seen such a situation before. I was thinking hard in my mind, trying to figure out what the black substance was, but after thinking for a long time, I still didn't have a clue. He thought that Ming Linghu was good at growing herbs and refining elixirs. Maybe Hu Yue could see some clues.
He sinks his mind into the space inside his body, finds Hu Yue and tells Zhang Chu’s situation in detail.
Hu Yue frowned and said, "Master, I need to take a look to be sure."
Cheng Ling hesitated for a while and finally agreed. But he didn't release Hu Yue. Instead, he stretched out his right hand and gave Yurou a light tap, and she fell to the ground and fell asleep.
Zhang Chu was shocked and said hurriedly: "Master, what did you do to her?"
Cheng Ling said: "Don't worry, I just let her sleep for a while. You must not tell anyone what you see next. Do you understand?"
Zhang Chu nodded blankly.
Cheng Ling waved his hand, and Hu Yue showed up beside the bed.
Zhang Chu was in a state of shock, what was going on? Where did this woman come from? The storage ring can only store dead objects. No living thing can last in it for an hour, unless it is a special flower and plant ring, but that one is only used to collect herbs. From the look of this woman, it doesn't look like she has transformed from some kind of herb. ?
Cheng Ling said calmly: "Don't ask, don't tell! She may be able to think of a way to cure you."
Zhang Chu nodded quickly, closed his eyes, and pretended not to see it.
After a while, the woman was heard to say: "Master, he is poisoned! It's such a powerful poison, it can break the intestines, devil's heart grass, poisonous devil's vine, devil's needle fruit, life soul flower... .There are at least twelve kinds of poisonous weeds, and one that even I can’t identify.”
"This poison is very powerful. It not only corrodes the bones, flesh, essence and blood, but also affects the soul over time. Moreover, it is very difficult to deal with. Once it touches the blood, the toxin will spread in the body. Even if part of it is removed, it can easily condense again. .”
Cheng Ling was startled and said, "Poison? Do you have a solution?"
"Not yet, I need to take a drop of his blood for research."
"Then how long can he last in this situation?"
"Looking at the current situation, the master should have treated him. The power of vitality can indeed alleviate the spread of toxins, but this can only treat the symptoms, not the root cause. The only way is to seal his entire body to prevent the spread of the toxins to the greatest extent. Wait until he is found. Treat with symptomatic herbal medicine."
"But Master, even if the spread of poison is reduced, his cultivation can only last for one year at most. After one year, the poison will corrode the soul, and it will be difficult to save the immortal!"
