Today was the day Tang Ping brought the five people together, and it was also the first time the five people actually discussed things together after Qian Chao was injured.
Qian Chao was weak, so the task of cooking tea fell on Li Jian, who also loved tea. When the tea cups in front of everyone were filled with the fragrance of tea, Tang Ping, who had been looking down in embarrassment, quietly looked up. Although she always felt embarrassed, the best way to alleviate the embarrassment was to get to the point quickly, so she bit the bullet and said:
"I brought everyone here today. This was also entrusted by my sixth grandfather. He has something to tell us all. It seems to be a very important matter. We were supposed to go to his cave, but Qian Boy's body He's not fully recovered yet and can't go out, so he can only come to us..."
When everyone heard this, they realized that it was Tang Bonian who asked Tang Ping to bring everyone together today. Li Jian asked curiously:
"Senior Tang is looking for us, what could it be?"
"Right?" Lu Pingchuan also said.
Tang Ping said:
"He said it had something to do with the Cold Pond, and that it should be tidied up there, but he didn't tell me the details. He only asked me to gather everyone together, and he would tell us when he arrives."
Cold pool!
Qian Chao immediately had a guess and said:
"Senior Tang told us last time that he suspected an alchemy monk named An Zaiyin in the sect. Do you still remember?"
Yanxuan said:
"Remember, didn't Senior Tang say that guy had escaped from the Five Spirits Sect?"
Li Jian also said:
"Senior Tang said that he suspected that An Zaiyin was Zhang Yi's master, but it was just a suspicion and there was no actual evidence."
"That's right," Qian Chao said, "Senior Tang did say that at the time. It wasn't that long since the last time he said this. But if Senior Tang wants us to completely clear the cold pool, Anzai should probably do it." There is news about Yin. I remember that Senior Tang also said that it would not be that simple to find An Zaiyin outside. It would probably be very time-consuming. But now we are asked to solve the problem of Hanchi Pond. It seems that An Zaiyin’s matter is They must have had some clues, perhaps found evidence that An Zaiyin is a Chongling Blood Cultivator, or even caught him outside..."
"Oh," Lu Pingchuan suddenly became excited after hearing this, "Well, since we have to sweat and eat, what about Zhang Yi? Do you want to take care of that kid too?"
"No," Qian Chao said, "Zhang Yi will not be touched. If Zhang Yi is kept, he can use it as bait. Maybe there will be other gains after a long time. If my guess is correct, it is very likely that Zhang Yi will be moved this time." The pool is related to flowers."
"Why?" Yanxuan asked.
Qian Chao said slowly:
"This is just my guess. Listen, everyone. When Wen Liang and Xing Rang escaped into the cold pool and we didn't chase them in to clean them up, it was just to hang Zhang Yi. As a result, An Zaiyin was scared away. Now if If you really believe that An Zaiyin is a Chongling blood cultivator or capture him outside the sect, then the torture in the cold pool is not so important, including Zhang Yi, but you have to keep him to see if he can be used in the future. It's just to attract other Chongling Blood Cultivators. Don't forget that in addition to Wen Liang and Xing Rang, there is also Hua Cong in the cold pool. If Hua Cong was just an ordinary disciple of Meng Cailou, no one would care about his life or death, but His status is that of a big dude in Meng Cai Tower, and his family must be very powerful in Meng Cai Tower. In our Wuling Sect, the sect is very afraid of the five clans in the sect and does not want them to continue to become big. , so he secretly used means to restrict and weaken them, which must be the same in Mengcai Tower. If Hua Cong is locked in the cold pool, then his Mengcai Tower Hua family will fall into an embarrassing and dangerous situation, and they will definitely Under suspicion, he was secretly suppressed by Meng Cailou. Now that Hua Cong is suspected of being a Chongling blood cultivator, the situation becomes even more difficult. Who made him become a Chongling blood cultivator becomes the key. It is Hua Cong. A certain elder in Meng Cailou or some other monk in Meng Cailou is extremely important to Meng Cailou and the Hua family, and can even be related to the rise and fall of the Hua family in Mengcailou. Well, I also think that if it really happens this time If there is news about An Zaiyin, maybe Meng Cailou will help, in exchange for our Wuling Sect to capture Hua Cong and hand him over to them for interrogation. Humph, as long as Hua Cong is in hand then. , even if the Hua family has something to do, Meng Cailou will hold it. Therefore, it is possible that the sect’s parliament asked us to do the Hanchichi clearing this time at the request of Meng Cailou. "
After listening to Qian Chao's words, several people thought about it and felt that it made sense. Lu Pingchuan said:
"Then what if that pretty boy from Hua Cong has died in the cold pool? Where can we go to find someone alive?"
"It is indeed possible, but this is not what we worry about. The sect must have thought of this. If Hua Cong really dies inside, we don't need to worry about the matter explained to Meng Cailou. This kind of Matters between the major sects will be resolved by the elders within our sect."
Lu Pingchuan understood, nodded and said:
"Well, yes, that's the truth. That means we have to go into the cold pool to capture Wen Liang next, right?"
Qian Chao also nodded:
"Yes, I think that's probably the case."
After hearing this, Yanxuan asked thoughtfully:
"As for Zong Xi, Wei Gelin is dead, but there is still a Zhu Cloak, and Zong Xi's people will definitely cause trouble against us again. Will Brother Qian's previous plan be temporarily stopped?"
Tang Ping said:
"Zong Xi and Zhang Yi already know that Zhang Yi went to Ruixuan Town twice in the past few days to meet Zhu Yuan. He hurried back to Zong shortly after the first meeting, and then began to ask about Qian Xiaozi's day. After I found out what happened when I returned from the injury, I rushed back to Ruixuan Town to find Zhu Mao. Then Zhu Mao left Ruixuan Town overnight. I asked Liu Feng from Yaqiji to send someone to follow him quietly, but the news has not come back yet. , no matter what, Zhang Yi and Zong Xi are now on alert."
Upon hearing this, Qian Chao smiled bitterly and said:
"Well, there is nothing we can do about it. I saw Wei Gelin outside and wanted to kill Fu Qi. After confirming Wei Gelin's identity, I thought this was an opportunity. If I could capture him alive and quietly bring him back for interrogation, it would be very useful to us. It will definitely be beneficial to me. Alas, this lesson is very important to me. I was poisoned before Wei Gelin died. If I don't return as soon as possible, I will die outside. The poison in my body will almost break out when I rush back to the sect. , it is simply impossible to wait until there are fewer black people in the sky before sneaking back into the sect quietly. I can only rush to the nearest Brother Lu. Many people saw me along the way. I must not be able to hide the news. Yes, as time goes by, Zong Xi and the others will definitely connect Wei Gelin's disappearance with my injury. Now it's not that we have to postpone the previous strategy, but we have to wait and see what Zong Xi's plan is. Is there any new trend on the side? The previous strategy was to remove Lou Qingyao and Shangguanhong from them first, and then slowly deal with Zhang Yi and Zong Xi. Looking at it now, if we want to take action against Hanchichi, it is very likely that The first person to be eliminated is Zhang Yi. If this can be done, Zong Xi and Lou Qingyao will not be a problem. As for Zong Cheng and Jing Lu, the matter can also be solved together. Well, who would have thought that I would go there So many changes happened after just one chaos in the rocky hills and valleys!"
When Qian Chao mentioned Luan Shi Gang and Hao Valley, Tang Ping suddenly remembered something. She took out a storage bag and handed it to Qian Chao and said:
"Boy Qian, you were injured and fell into a coma after you came back. I have already told Ah Jiu about the formations you set up. Ah Jiu has also succeeded in the Luan Shi Gang and Hao Valley that she has just visited in the past few days. This is her Let me give it to you."
Qian Chao took it over and took a look, and sure enough, there were the bodies of the two giant wolves "Zhiduo" and "Zhaoqiu" from Luanshigang. There was also the corpse of the "Zhijin" in the valley that Tang Ping had told him a few days ago. "Po" big spiders, these three guys all have blood holes in their heads. It seems that the demon pill has fallen into Ah Jiu's hands.
After Qian Chao read it, he casually threw it to Lu Pingchuan. It was his business to remove useful materials from these guys.
Lu Pingchuan opened it and looked at it, smiled and was about to put it away. When he saw Yanxuan's eyes full of curiosity, he handed it over.
"anything else."
Tang Ping said and carefully took out a small white porcelain jar. The mouth of the jar was sealed with a cork wrapped in silk, and a wax seal was poured on it. The seal was very tight. Lu Pingchuan thought it was some kind of good wine when he saw it. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he smiled and asked:
"Sister Tang, what kind of good wine is this?"
Tang Ping said angrily when she heard this:
"Good wine! Do you dare to drink this?"
"Why don't you dare? Hehe, as long as it's wine, I dare to drink it!"
It was said that Lu Pingchuan reached out to grab the small jar, which frightened Tang Ping. She protected the jar with both hands and quickly dodged while saying:
"Brother Lu, don't touch it, there is no wine in it!"
Lu Pingchuan then retracted his hand angrily and said:
"Ah, why don't you just put the wine in a jar?"
Several people's eyes fell on the small jar in Tang Ping's hand. Tang Ping felt relieved when she saw that Lu Pingchuan stopped messing around, put the small jar on the table again, and then rushed into Lu Pingchuan's hand. said:
"Come on, Brother Lu, touch this jar."
"What?"
Although Lu Pingchuan was puzzled, he still put his hand on the jar, then immediately retracted it, and said in great surprise:
"Hey, what's going on? What's in it? Why is it still moving inside?"
After hearing what Lu Pingchuan said, several people became curious. Li Jian and Yanxuan both touched the small jar. Sure enough, the feeling coming from the jar was as if it was filled with snakes and insects. squirming.
Tang Ping said:
"Brother Lu, if you had opened this jar just now, although the five of us will not die, we will definitely suffer a lot, and our cultivation may be greatly reduced."
"Miss Tang, what is in this jar?" Li Jian asked.
"Oh, there is indeed wine in it, but it is soaked in other things. This was my master's idea. Originally, she wanted to destroy all the things inside, but I thought that Mr. Qian might be able to use them, so I brought them over. Did you see the big spider in that storage bag just now?"
After hearing this, Li Jian went to the previous storage bag from Lu Pingchuan and looked inside.
Tang Ping continued:
"The big spider is called Brocade Po, and the thing inside is taken from it. It is a kind of insect called a worm. It is not big, but it is very powerful. Monsters and birds are the most afraid of this kind of bug. The most difficult to kill, it is born to devour the spiritual energy of monsters and beasts. It can be regarded as a kind of parasitic monster insect. Once the insect bites into the body of a monster beast or bird, it will not eat its flesh and blood, but the monster beast itself will The spiritual energy of the person will be continuously devoured by it, and the eating insects will continue to reproduce and grow over time. At this time, no matter how powerful the monsters and monsters are, they will be as if they have a serious disease. If you can use 60 or 70 points of 10 methods, it is considered good. . The same is true if the insect worms burrow into the monk's body. Although there is some rescue, the process of forcing the worms out of the body is very painful. Not to mention the suffering, if the insect burrows into the monk's Dantian Qi. If it were Hai, the monk would definitely become a useless person. In order to bring the big spider back, Ah Jiu almost fell into the trap of the insect-devouring spider. It took a lot of effort and effort to completely remove the insect-devouring insect from the brocade weaver's body. Clean it up, Brother Lu, do you still dare to drink it now?"
After hearing this, Lu Pingchuan felt as uncomfortable as if his body was crawling with bugs, and he quickly said:
"I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore, my dear, then what's the use of keeping this thing?"
Qian Chao's eyes lit up when he heard this, he reached out and touched the jar and said:
"Useful, useful..."
Yanxuan said curiously:
"What for?"
"Haha," Qian Chao smiled, "Zong Xi found two people from outside to be his accomplices. One is Wei Gelin, who is dead, and the other is Zhu Hao. That guy is a spirit-controlling monk. What is his forbidden technique? Yeah, yes, the beast soul can be transformed into a beast soul, which is said to be very powerful. Well, after Wei Gelin was expelled, he even had the means to practice evil. What about the Zhu Cloak? The forbidden art he practiced is also an evil art if it goes one step further. The story about "human soul entering the body of an animal" that Miss Tang told us before, no matter what, the spirit bird and spirit beast that Zhu Lai is carrying now must be very powerful. If this is the case, then this insect-eating thing may be useful. It can be of great use.”
"Brother Qian wants to use this insect-eating insect to deal with Zhu Cloak's spiritual beast?" Li Jian asked.
Lu Pingchuan also said:
“It’s called fighting fire with fire, right?”
"Yes, that's what I mean. Girl Tang, can you control this kind of insect?"
Tang Ping shook her head and said:
"No, very few monks raise this kind of monster insect, because if you want to raise it, you have to keep catching monster beasts and birds for them to swallow the spiritual energy, which is very troublesome, or... or the monks raise this insect Use your own spiritual energy to support these monster insects..."
Yanxuan frowned when he heard this and said:
"Oh my god...is there still such a thing?"
"Therefore, almost no spirit control monks are willing to raise this kind of monster insect. In addition, this kind of monster insect is most afraid of fire, but even if it is burned with flames, it will take a while to completely kill it. And then they also I'm afraid of wine, as being contaminated with alcohol will make the eating insects drowsy. The eating insects in this jar are all soaked in strong alcohol, otherwise a jar alone can't seal them."
"It's a pity that good wine is used to soak insects." Lu Pingchuan said.
After hearing this, Qian Chao said:
"Knowing this will make me more confident. This insect-eating insect will definitely be of great use in the future. Hmm, if Zhu Yan knows the news of Wei Gelin's death and is scared away, that's all. If he continues to contribute to Zong Xi, then this The Insect Eater was prepared for him!"
