Chapter 77: Resurrection From the Dead
Wu Yan successfully put the out-of-control "Red Evil Flag" into his storage bag. His eyes were always staring at a screen in the northwest corner, and his spiritual consciousness was always open, paying close attention to all the movements around him.
"Fellow Taoist, don't get me wrong. I, I have no intention of doing anything to you... I just ask you, Taoist friend, to let me go. I, I never dare to have any thoughts!" A delicate voice came timidly from the northwest corner. sounded from behind the screen.
Wu Yan's face moved slightly, and he suddenly said: "An Yingying? Miss An, is that you?"
"Ah?" the delicate voice behind the screen exclaimed, and poked her head out from behind the screen, revealing a face that was both surprised and happy. When she saw Wu Yan, she suddenly blushed shyly and murmured: "Why is it you? It turned out to be Brother Wu. Was it you who killed that evil man?"
The person hiding behind the screen in the northwest corner of the hall turned out to be An Yingying, who sold Wu Yan the seeds of the black viper vine. Wu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, quietly lowered his hands from his waist, and said with a smile: "Miss An, why are you here?"
The shy and helpless expression on An Yingying's face made Wu Yan very suspicious. It was so strange that she suddenly appeared here. Wu Yan's brows suddenly wrinkled again and he stared at An Yingying's face.
When asked by Wu Yan, An Yingying seemed to be thinking of something sad. She patted her high chest and was about to cry. Her voice was choked: "Brother Wu, my sister was tortured to death by that evil man. My sister's body was abandoned by that evil man." In the side hall of Tianlang Palace. I, I was found by my sister a few days ago. My sister brought me here. Unexpectedly, she, she was killed by that evil person, wuwu..." After that, An Yingying had already cried, and the crystal tears rolled down her pretty face. I felt pity for her.
Wu Yan followed the direction of her finger, turned around the screen, and saw a small door leading to the side hall behind the screen. Wu Yan frowned and walked through the corridor into the side hall. His eyes suddenly widened and he almost jumped up in shock at the scene in front of him.
This side hall is not only extremely luxurious and beautiful, it is also filled with many dazzling utensils. The pandan wood walls on all sides are covered with paintings of various men and women. A touch of fragrant powder comes out from some small holes in the walls, making this house always have an indescribable feeling. The smell of the ambiguous and tempting aroma will make one's blood boil, and all kinds of distracting thoughts will appear in the mind, and the mind will also fantasize about the obscene things on the wall.
A voluptuous woman with her whole body, her hands and feet bound by pink gauze, was hung on a Xinyi wooden frame half a person's height with her arms and legs spread out. The woman's eyes widened, and the expression on her face was extremely strange. It seemed that she was still in extreme excitement and fear of sudden changes before she died. Her snow-white skin was covered with red marks, as if she had been beaten by something. But from hers, jet-black filth flowed out, spreading all over the floor, emitting bursts of fishy odor.
Wu Yan frowned and scanned the entire side hall, finding a pile of women's clothes scattered on the bed not far from the shelf.
An Yingying also walked in. She saw Wu Yan looking around the side hall without blinking. While shy, there was also a trace of uneasiness and shame on his face. She hurriedly ran to the bed, grabbed the clothes on the bed, and was about to cover the woman's body.
"Don't move! Miss An, come here first." Wu Yan suddenly greeted loudly. As he said this, he walked out of the side hall and stood in the corridor between the main hall and the side hall.
An Yingying frowned, bit her lip and walked over, looking at Wu Yan with complicated eyes.
Wu Yan then remembered that he might have been misunderstood by this shy woman. He smiled bitterly, took out a small jade bottle from a leather bag at his waist, poured out a white pill, handed it to An Yingying, and said softly: "Miss An, that woman is your sister, right? She She was already poisoned by a kind of poison, but after being exploited by the evil man Jiang Xekong, more doses of poison were discharged into her body. At this moment, her body is extremely poisonous. Fortunately, you didn't touch her rashly just now. Otherwise, now you may also... This is an antidote pill. If you take it, you will not be afraid of the poison. The dead body is safe, but your sister's body is probably not suitable for carrying home long distances. You'd better do it. It’s better to incinerate her here, collect her ashes, and take them back. I’ll wait for you outside.”
An Yingying's pretty face was tense when she showed it, but after hearing Wu Yan's words, her face gradually improved, and then she realized that she had misunderstood Wu Yan just now. An Yingying lowered her head and said nothing, quietly wiped away the tears on her face, took the detoxification pill from Wu Yan's hand, and said as thinly as a mosquito: "Thank you, Brother Wu." Then she turned around and covered her face before entering the side hall again. inside.
Wu Yan walked into the main hall and used the Mo Lin dagger to cut off the twelve withered black viper vines. When they were turned into twelve finger-sized rhizomes, he took a small wooden box and stored the twelve black viper vine rhizomes. Then put it into the storage bag and put it away.
After leaving the main hall, Wu Yan stood silently outside the main hall, waiting for An Yingying to come out.
At this time, there was a faint sound of suppressed sad sobs in the side hall. Wu Yan sighed secretly and walked away a little further. The dim light of fire danced in the hall, probably An Yingying was incinerating her sister's body.
Suddenly, Wu Yan turned around and looked at the place where Jiang Ning and Lu Xuanyu had been placed. There was a solemn expression on his face again, and he walked over cautiously and silently.
Hidden in the shadows by the wall, Wu Yan was surprised to find that Lu Xuanyu, who was supposed to be dead, was now standing alive in the corner by the wall, with a look of extreme anxiety on his pale face. He was trying to untie Jiang Ning's body. of bondage. But Jiang Ning was trapped by Jiang Xekong's wind binding technique, and the magic power did not last long. Unless a cultivator with profound cultivation skills helped to relieve it, it would be impossible for ordinary people to untie the wind binding technique. .
Jiang Ningze whispered: "Master, please leave quickly and leave me alone. Since this person is also an immortal cultivator and killed Jiang Xekong, he will definitely not let us go so easily. Maybe As soon as he finishes dealing with the traces of the fight in Tianlang Palace, he will come over to kill people and silence them..."
"Ning'er, don't say anything. I'll think about what to do as a teacher. Alas, if I hadn't exhausted all my energy and muscles to deal with Jiang Xekong, I wouldn't have been able to climb over this wall. "In the past, I made a mistake this time." Lu Xuanyu complained in an extremely depressed voice, and used dozens of methods to attack Jiang Ning, but to no avail. He couldn't help but fell to the ground in frustration, and continued. Said: "Don't worry Ning'er. I have just secretly observed this person. I feel that this person has no ill intentions towards us, and he seems to know you. Do you think that if he wants to kill us and silence us, he will completely There is no need to rescue us from that hall. I'm afraid you don't know that the poisonous mist caused by the dozens of extremely powerful poisons spread by that person has been spread throughout the hall. If he wants to harm us, just don't worry. Let’s just let the two of us be poisoned by the poisonous mist in that hall, so why move the two of us here?”
"Ah? Really? Master, is that person's poison really that powerful?" Jiang Ning widened her eyes in surprise and looked at Lu Xuanyu.
Lu Xuanyu smiled bitterly and said: "Isn't Jiang Xekong very powerful? Wasn't he so poisonous that his head was torn apart? And even his soul seemed to have been poisoned to death by his poison. You are still young, I don’t understand some of the mysterious things in the world of immortals. I have seen the fighting skills of immortal cultivators. Those immortal cultivators are no better than us mortals. Even if their physical bodies are destroyed, their souls will survive without their bodies. A period of time. During this period, although those souls are very weak, they can still control magic weapons and kill us ordinary people with ease. "
Jiang Ning was probably fascinated by what she was listening to. It took her a long time to react, and she clicked her tongue and exclaimed: "The immortal cultivators are so amazing! Oh, it would be great if my disciple could also become an immortal cultivator. Master, what do you think? Can people who don’t have the spiritual roots of immortality really not be able to become immortal cultivators?”
Lu Xuanyu smiled bitterly and said: "Ning'er, I'm afraid you are really disappointed. In my early years, I traveled around the world and got acquainted with many immortal cultivators. I also asked around about this, and the result was indeed extremely frustrating. Without that It is indeed impossible to become an immortal cultivator with the immortal spirit root. Alas, stop thinking about these meaningless things. When you escape this time, my master will take you to live in seclusion in the mountains. If you don't practice your inner strength to the point of divine strength. , don't wander around in the world anymore. Humph, in fact, those who have practiced martial arts to a high level may not be worse than those who are cultivators of immortality. Alas, it is a pity that no matter how high their martial arts are, their life span is still difficult to match those of those who are cultivating immortals. Comparatively..." After speaking, his voice gradually became lower, indicating that he was unwilling to be left alone. Unfortunately, Jiang Ning was young and ignorant after all, and did not hear the melancholy in his words.
Probably remembering the scene that happened in the main hall, Jiang Ning became excited again and sighed: "Well, my disciple knows. Hehe, master is really powerful, he can almost kill the immortal cultivator. By the way, master, I I seem to remember where I saw that person.”
"Huh? Have you really seen that person? Where is he? Have you done anything to offend him?" Lu Xuanyu suddenly became nervous, stood up and looked at Jiang Ning with a confused expression.
"You two don't need to act anymore. Although I admit that my experience in martial arts is limited, I can still see the acting skills of your master and apprentice." Wu Yan walked out of the shadows under the wall with an expressionless face. He looked calmly at Lu Xuanyu, master and apprentice, who looked embarrassed because they were exposed.
"This? Haha, this immortal master is joking. I wonder what the immortal master plans to do with my master and apprentice?" The embarrassment on Lu Xuanyu's face flashed away, and then Shi Shiran stood still and bowed his hand to Wu Yan. Finally, he opened the folding fan with a smile and shook it, showing the magnanimity of a master.
"I'm very curious, why did you pretend to be dead to deceive me?" Wu Yan always pressed his hand on a leather bag on his waist, looked at Lu Xuanyu calmly and asked, judging from the meaning, if Lu Xuanyu's answer was slightly wrong, he would The look of killing without mercy. This made Master and Disciple Lu Xuanyu, who had just calmed down, change his face again.
