Chapter 90 There Is a Temple to the West of Sheng County (8000)

As the strong wind poured into the room, a sound came from the black light. The wind was carrying poison and was corroding the body of the Vajra Heart Demon.

Through the hole, Xu Bai saw a person standing on the wall, wrapped up tightly, and his face could not be seen clearly.

As if he found Xu Bai looking at him, the person quickly jumped off the wall, and in the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

The strong wind continued to carry the poison, and the wind was very chaotic, blowing around the courtyard.

"Where are you running?"

How could Xu Bai miss this opportunity? He pushed open the window and used the four-step method he had just acquired. The person had disappeared in the backyard.

Just after climbing over the wall, he saw that the figure had run a long distance. Xu Bai did not stop, and continued to use his body skills to chase after the figure.

The four-step method is very different from the four-step body skills. When the four-step body skills are used, people pass by like ghosts, giving people a light and textureless visual sense, and it is very erratic when used.

But the four-step method is different. When it is performed, it is open and closed. Each step is upright and upright, and when each step is taken, it also carries a sense of iron and blood rising to the sky.

The speed of the third-level body method is no longer the same as before. In the blink of an eye, Xu Bai can already keep up with the speed of the figure in front.

The distance between the two remains unchanged, and no one pulls away or shortens, just like this, chasing all the way.

The streets are silent in the middle of the night, but the footsteps are like a storm. After being woken up, some people opened the window and looked outside, and saw two afterimages flashing by.

"What the hell is going on in the middle of the night?"

Seeing this scene, all the people shuddered, closed the windows, and went back to bed to sleep, not daring to look any more.

On the other side, the two chased each other, and in a blink of an eye, they had already left the county.

The Thousand-Faced Poison King is now in a state of collapse. He never expected that this wave of attacks not only did not work on the other party, but instead fell into danger.

At first, he disguised himself as Yun Zihai and pretended to attack Xu Bai. In fact, it was just a test. He had planned today.

There was no chance of poisoning the water and food.

He had been secretly following Xu Bai these days and found that Xu Bai was particularly cautious about eating and drinking.

As for using the disguise method, that kind of attack was only effective in the initial surprise attack. Once the other party knew his identity and became alert, it would be easy to show flaws.

The disguise method could change his body shape and appearance, and even change his voice, but it could not change his habits.

If he pretended to be a person and spent a lot of time to understand the person's habits, as well as various ways of speaking and movements, he might be able to get rid of Xu Bai in this way, but he didn't have time now.

In the end, he decided to use his poison technique to solve this big trouble.

He couldn't hurt Xu Bai in eating and drinking, but today was a good day and the opportunity he had been waiting for.

Today is a windy day. The wind at night is very chaotic and rushes in all directions. If there is poison in the wind, then every side will be defenseless.

But he miscalculated. When he saw the black light rising from Xu Bai's body, he knew that he must escape next.

He had to escape, because he couldn't beat him.

Fortunately, he was very confident in his body skills.

His nickname was given by others, but others never knew that his weakest point was poison.

As for the strongest point, it was body skills.

After all, he was a person who mixed in the world, and he was cautious and prudent. He knew that only saving his life was the key to survival, so he had already practiced his third-level body skills to the pinnacle.

That night, he was able to retreat unscathed, and Xu Bai did not continue to chase him, proving that the other party had no way to chase him, but what he never expected was that something went wrong tonight.

It was not a small problem, but a big problem of life and death.

"How come his body movements have improved so much overnight? This is too abnormal." The Thousand Faces Poison King was running while thinking about the plan in his mind.

In just a short while, the Thousand Faces Poison King had brought Xu Bai to the outskirts of the city.

Xu Bai was still chasing him, doing it with ease, and he pulled out his ghost-head knife, waving it while chasing, like a butcher holding a butcher knife.

Tonight, this guy must be killed by the knife, otherwise Xu Bai will not be able to sleep well.

How can I let others sleep peacefully beside my bed?

"There is no other way, I can only take him to that place. Since you want to die, I will fulfill your wish." The Thousand Faces Poison King said secretly.

He changed his position on the way. Although the distance between him and Xu Bai was instantly shortened due to the change of position, it gradually became balanced.

The change of position in the middle of the way was also noticed by Xu Bai. While chasing, Xu Bai narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a cold look in his eyes.

This guy has a plan.

But having chased him to this point, Xu Bai didn't want to give up. It was like picking up a gun and mounting a horse. It would be a pity to give up at this time.

The two of them chased him again.

At this moment, the flat road ahead suddenly became steep, and then a dense forest appeared. There was one scene outside the forest, and another scene inside the forest.

Outside the forest, there were sounds of birds, beasts and insects, but inside the forest, it was as quiet as a ghostland.

Thousand-Faced Poison King raised his hand, threw a black pill into his mouth, and then plunged into the forest.

At this time, Xu Bai was still some distance away from Thousand-Faced Poison King. Seeing him dive in, his brows frowned.

There is a saying that you should not enter the forest. This forest looks very strange, and rushing in may be unnecessary.

The distance between them was far beyond the attack range of Maple Leaf Like Rain. After getting a little closer, Xu Bai reached into his waist, grabbed a handful of copper coins, and shot them towards the forest.

The copper coins cut off the forest in front of him, but a layer of black gas emerged from the gap above the forest. All the copper coins that touched the trees had been corroded.

"Poisonous?" Xu Bai thought to himself, "It's just poisonous."

It's just poisonous. The highest record of this Thousand-Faced Poison King is to kill a sixth-grade master.

Today, I'm going to be invincible!

Black light rose from his body, and he used the Diamond Heart Demon Body to the maximum extent.

At the same time, the true energy in his body was surging and operating in a very special way.

The stars are changing!

The two fourth-level skills brought great consumption, but Xu Bai was not in a hurry. A warm current flowed through his kidneys, replenishing this consumption.

——Kidney Strengthening Method!

The kidneys stored the true energy of a sixth-grade master, which was enough for him to spend temporarily.

Below the sixth grade, I am invincible!

Xu Bai was like a prehistoric beast, wrapped in a body of black light, and rushed into the woods fiercely.

The forest was originally quiet, but since Xu Bai broke in, the surrounding poisonous gas seemed to come alive, rushing in all at once, and each tree represented a kind of poison.

Various kinds of poison appeared, and when they encountered Xu Bai's black light, they were quickly dissolved by the Diamond Heart Demon Body.

But that's not the end.

Some of the strong poisons, after the effect of the shifting of the stars, shot towards different trees. Originally, each tree carried a kind of poison, but after being shifted by Xu Bai, each tree was infected with different toxins,

The trees began to wither and melt.

All life turned into dead things in front of Xu Bai.

There was a figure running for his life in front of him.

The Thousand-Faced Poison King looked at the demon-like figure behind him, and there was only one thought in his mind.

Run, the farther the better!

He won't take this job!

Some jobs can make him a lot of money, but if he takes this job, he will only die!

This forest was originally built by him for Yun Zihai.

Every tree in it is covered with various toxins. As long as Yun Zihai comes in, it is impossible for him to get out easily.

When all the toxins are combined, the power that bursts out can make a sixth-grade master fail.

Moreover, Yun Zihai's body is not good, as long as a little bit of toxin is put in, he will be in trouble.

The pill he took just now is a pill specially used to dissolve the seventh-grade toxin. Even this kind of pill can only last for half an hour in the forest at most.

But he really didn't expect that the terrifying Jianghu man behind him could not only withstand the toxins, but also transfer all the toxins.

He didn't even see this Jianghu man make any moves, and he was still chasing him without slowing down.

Could this man be the son of destiny?

I have never seen a Jianghu man with so many means, and he is so strong.

It's outrageous!

The Thousand-Faced Poison King thought while running.

He couldn't help but think of the person who introduced him to this job, and cursed in his heart.

I really shouldn't have accepted it!

I will go and trouble that person after I escape today!

Thinking of this, the Thousand-Faced Poison King ran faster.

But this so-called faster speed did not bring him any relief, because Xu Bai's speed remained unchanged.

In a blink of an eye, the surrounding woods gradually collapsed, corroded by various toxins, and became bare.

The Thousand-Faced Poison King continued to run, and Xu Bai was chasing behind.

But after running for nearly an incense stick of time, the Thousand-Faced Poison King's speed was slowing down.

After a long journey, he was a little exhausted.

Looking back, looking behind him, the Thousand-Faced Poison King was in despair.

Behind him, Xu Bai took every step with great momentum, and his momentum was like a towering mountain, forcing him towards him.

Among the four physical movements, the marching step itself is the physical movement of the army, which emphasizes a long-distance attack, and this endurance is excellent.

Even if the Thousand-Faced Poison King has eight legs, he will definitely not be able to beat him.

"I'll chase you. If I catch you, you will..."

Behind him, Xu Bai's voice came, which made the Thousand-Faced Poison King shudder.

The sound was like a strange whisper, and he was a little overwhelmed.

As time passed, the Thousand-Faced Poison King only felt that he had hallucinations in front of his eyes, dizzy, and his hands and feet were light.

The power in his body was disappearing rapidly, and he was seriously exhausted and had no strength left.

"Bang!"

The Thousand-Faced Poison King was dizzy, tripped by a stone, and fell directly to the ground.

Not good!

This fall made him sober up.

In a chase between life and death like this, even a small error can easily lead to major events, not to mention the fact that he fell.

As expected, Xu Bai's voice came from behind.

"I finally caught the poisoner."

The Thousand-Faced Poison King turned around, using his hands and feet to get up, but then he felt a pain in his hands and feet. When he looked over the pain, he found that his hands and feet had flown into the air.

Blood spurted, and the pain surged like a tide, swallowing him instantly.

The Thousand-Faced Poison King was very happy and fainted.

The pain made him faint without any pretense.

Xu Bai was also very fast. He used the trauma medicine from Qingxue again and quickly stopped the bleeding of the Thousand-Faced Poison King.

This scene seemed familiar. If Qingxue saw it again, she would definitely cover her eyes and shake her head and sigh.

Why did you have to provoke this guy?

If you fall into this guy's hands, you won't even have a complete body.

"Done." Xu Bai smiled with satisfaction.

When dealing with enemies, of course, the means must be crueler. Only in this way can you ensure that the other party has no tricks to use.

Xu Bai searched the Thousand-Faced Poison King while he was hot.

I thought I didn't get much, but I didn't expect that he was wrong.

In addition to a bag of silver, he also found a book.

There are four big characters on the book - "Hundred Poisons Sutra".

This thing is easy to understand. You can tell at a glance that it is the poison technique used by the Thousand-Faced Poison King.

The problem is... there is a progress bar!

Good stuff!

"What a pity, I didn't find a way to change my appearance." Xu Bai felt a little bit sorry.

This guy's disguise technique is much better than Liu Xu's. He was really envious, but he didn't find it.

Now in the wilderness, Xu Bai didn't bother to work on the progress bar. He put the Hundred Poisons Sutra in his arms, dragged the Thousand-Faced Poison King's hair, and rushed to the county town.

...

Promotion to the county, the county government.

Yun Zihai looked at the Thousand-Faced Poison King who was in a coma in front of him and fell into deep thought.

Tonight, he was still thinking about the previous things, especially the Thousand-Faced Poison King.

I wanted to think of a good plan to lure out the Thousand-Faced Poison King, and after solving it, see if there are any clues.

But I really didn't expect that Xu Bai would come to the door today.

Yun Zihai knew how difficult it was to deal with the Thousand-Faced Poison King.

The difficulty was not in the strength of the Thousand-Faced Poison King, but in the escape method.

Yun Zihai was also a scholar, and he was not good at this.

Even if you write the word "speed" for yourself, you can't catch up with this kind of person who specializes in learning the same thing.

Therefore, Yun Zihai has been very troubled during this period of time. The headache is because of this Thousand Faces Poison King, which has caused him to sleep poorly these few nights.

But what he never expected was that tonight, Xu Bai not only brought the Thousand Faces Poison King, but also cut off the hands and feet of the Thousand Faces Poison King before bringing him here.

In just these few nights, has the sky changed?

Or did he have insomnia last night and went to bed in the middle of the night, and after waking up, he slept for several days?

Isn't this too outrageous?

"Brother Xu, forgive me for being blunt, are you one of those seniors who disguised themselves? It is said that some seniors with bad tastes like to pretend to be juniors." Yun Zihai rubbed his hands and prepared to come up to confirm Xu Bai's identity.

"Clang!"

The ghost-head knife was pulled out.

"Don't be smart, get down to business." Xu Bai said.

Yun Zihai withdrew his hand in dismay, and looked at the Thousand-Faced Poison King in front of him, and was amazed.

Too cruel, this brother Xu was too cruel.

But I like it.

At this time, the Thousand-Faced Poison King was dragged by Xu Bai like this, and stayed in the county government for a while, and gradually woke up.

When he saw the two people in front of him, he was ashamed and understood his situation.

He wanted to speak, but found something wrong.

"I almost forgot, because you can use poison, I was worried that you would hide poison in your teeth, so I broke all your teeth." Xu Bai said indifferently.

When he came, he thought of this problem. After all, you haven't eaten pork, but you haven't seen pigs run?

Thousand-Faced Poison King: "..."

Hands and feet are gone, and teeth are gone.

This blow made him feel uncomfortable all over.

"Give me a quick death, I admit defeat." The Thousand-Faced Poison King closed his eyes.

Because he had no teeth, his speech was a little fuzzy, but fortunately he could still understand it.

"You have been in the underworld for a long time. Don't you know that the word 'happy' is sometimes a luxury for people in the underworld?" Xu Bai said with a smile.

"If you tell me what you know, I can give you a happy one." Yun Zihai added.

The Thousand-Faced Poison King opened his eyes, sneered, and said nothing.

"I vaguely remember that you should not have been loyal to anyone. How can you be so loyal?" Yun Zihai frowned.

"If you arrest me directly, I will tell the person, but he cut off my hands and feet first and broke my teeth. I think you should not know. In this way, I will feel relieved if I die." When the Thousand-Faced Poison King said this, he stared at Xu Bai with hatred, as if he wanted to eat Xu Bai alive.

Yun Zihai turned his head and felt a murderous intent behind him.

Xu Bai walked up and slapped the Thousand-Faced Poison King in the face twice, stepped on the Thousand-Faced Poison King's chest with his right foot, and spoke in a grim tone.

"You are very hypocritical."

Yun Zihai didn't understand what the word "hypocritical" meant.

But he understood what Xu Bai said next.

"You come to kill us, don't you allow me to torture you?" Xu Bai said.

The face of the Thousand-Faced Poison King was swollen, but he closed his mouth again and didn't want to answer a word.

Obviously, he didn't want to speak after being tortured like this.

"Brother Yun, do you have any methods of torture?" Xu Bai looked at Yun Zihai and asked.

"It's shameful to say that the set of torture instruments in the government office may not have much effect on him. I am a scholar and I haven't really paid too much attention to this aspect." Yun Zihai mentioned this, his face full of shame.

He has always been rigorous in doing things, but he didn't consider this matter.

"You don't have it, I have it, but I just want to waste something." Xu Bai took out a small medicine bottle.

He began to ask if there were any other ways to torture and force a confession, but he didn't want to waste a pill. After all, Qingxue couldn't be found, and the medicine had no source of supply.

The two of them were plotting loudly here, and the Thousand-Faced Poison King naturally reacted. He opened his eyes and looked at the medicine bottle in Xu Bai's hand. He was confused for a while, but soon reacted.

"Hundred Ants Devouring Heart Pills!"

It can be clearly felt that the Thousand-Faced Poison King seemed to know it and was very scared.

Yun Zihai also recognized it and said, "It seems that the misunderstanding between you and the Ninth Princess has been resolved. She can give you this. This is something that the Ninth Princess uses to force a confession."

Xu Bai: "..."

He wanted to say that he blackmailed Qingxue from this thing, but he felt that it would affect his positive image after saying it.

How can a person not live with face?

His image of Xu Bai, who is upright and awe-inspiring, cannot be tarnished by a bottle of pills.

"She was too enthusiastic and insisted on giving it to me. I could only accept it reluctantly." Xu Bai sighed.

Qingxue was not here, otherwise she would definitely roll her eyes.

"Since you recognize this pill, you naturally understand his pain. If I..." Xu Bai changed the subject, but did not finish his words.

"I will say." Thousand-Faced Poison King answered quickly.

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows, thinking that Thousand-Faced Poison King was quite sensible.

"I am a poison player, of course I understand the effect. I can't stand this pain, so I might as well have a quick death." Thousand-Faced Poison King said: "You just want to know who is behind the scenes. I know who hired me, but that person is definitely not the one behind the scenes. He is just a middleman."

Xu Bai and the others did not speak after hearing this, but continued to wait.

Thousand-Faced Poison King had a hard time speaking because of his broken teeth, but he still said all the following content.

"It's about 300 miles north of Sheng County. The temple is nameless. The monk inside found me and asked me to kill you."

A temple without a name?

Xu Bai touched his chin. This is another new clue, but is it reasonable?

"I have said what I can say. As for whether it is true or not, you have your own judgment. I just told the truth. Believe it or not." said the Thousand-Faced Poison King.

Xu Bai looked at Yun Zihai: "How about one?"

Yun Zihai nodded: "One."

The Thousand-Faced Poison King's eyes widened: "I have told you everything I know, and you still want to be cruel to me. This is too unreasonable. Do you still have any sense of justice?"

These two people are too uncivilized!

I have already said it, and you still treat me like this.

Is this reasonable?

The Thousand-Faced Poison King regretted that he should not have run away at that time. Instead of running away, it is better to fight and fight until death, and you will not suffer such humiliation.

The expected pill did not appear. Xu Bai put away the medicine bottle in the surprised eyes of the Thousand-Faced Poison King.

The ghost-head knife was pulled out and fell on the neck of the Thousand-Faced Poison King.

"Anything else to say?" said Xu Bai.

The Thousand-Faced Poison King shook his head and said, "I have thought about this since I entered this business. The world of martial arts is the world of martial arts. How many people can have a good ending in this terrible world of martial arts? But I have lived a life of many experiences that ordinary people cannot reach, which is enough."

Xu Bai smiled and waved the ghost-head knife in his hand.

Blood fell and scattered all over Yun Zihai's room.

At this time, Yun Zihai had not spoken.

When Xu Bai turned his head and cast his eyes on him, he reacted.

"Brother Xu, I think the two of us can go and take a look." Yun Zihai said.

Regardless of whether the news is true or false, it is at least a piece of news. If it is impossible to confirm the truth or not, it must be confirmed.

"Let's go tonight." Xu Bai said, "If you delay, something will happen."

With the news, of course, the sooner you act, the better. If you are late and something new happens, you will be caught off guard.

Yun Zihai said no more and found a brush and a book in the house.

"Let's go."

The two of them left the county government office and took advantage of the night to rush to the location that the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord had just mentioned.

At this moment, the night was already deep, especially the wilderness outside the county town, which was swallowed up by the night, and it seemed a bit terrifying.

Xu Bai and Yun Zihai walked in the darkness without saying a word.

According to the Thousand-Faced Poison Lord, there is a temple less than 300 miles north of Sheng County, and they are now heading in this direction.

The journey was calm and nothing happened, and there was no one blocking the road or any accidents as Xu Bai imagined.

They were also very fast, and when they were about to reach their destination, the first half of the night had not yet passed.

A mountain appeared in front of them, blocking their way in the middle.

The two stopped and raised their heads at the same time, looking at this not-so-high mountain.

Because it was too dark, they couldn't see the situation inside clearly, but the mountain road in front of them was still flat, and the surrounding weeds leaned to both sides, obviously someone often walked by.

There is no village in front and no shop behind. It is very appropriate to describe the situation of the two people at this time.

"Someone has walked on the mountain road. It seems that there are really people in this mountain." Xu Bai said.

A place like this is very far away from Sheng County and also far away from another county town. It is just stuck at this extreme distance.

In addition to the temple mentioned by Qianmian Dujun, it is easy to connect the traces of walking on this mountain road with the temple.

"Brother Xu, be careful." Yun Zihai held a book in his left hand and a pen in his right hand, with a vigilant attitude.

In the whole Sheng County, there are only two of them who can be of use.

After getting the news from Qianmian Dujun, they hurried over to prevent too many accidents.

There is news this time, but it does not mean there will be news next time. We must seize the opportunity.

Xu Bai raised his head and was still looking at the mountain. After hearing Yun Zihai's words, he turned back and said, "I'm fine, just be careful."

When chasing the Thousand-Faced Poison King, he used the endurance characteristics of the Four-Body Method, so he didn't consume too much.

And in that forest, although he seemed very fierce, he didn't consume much of the true energy of his kidneys.

After all, the true energy stored in the kidneys is enough for a sixth-grade master.

The two of them no longer hesitated and walked towards the mountain road.

Even if someone had walked this road, the weeds on both sides were leaning to the side, but it was still difficult to walk.

It was dark, and the road was unfamiliar. They had to guard against the dangers around them. The speed of the two was slightly slow. It was indeed much faster than ordinary people, but this speed was still too slow.

Fortunately, there was no danger along the way, and the mountain road did not fork, leading directly to the top of the mountain.

On the top of the mountain.

There is a huge platform here, surrounding the position below the top of the mountain, as if someone split an open space from the middle.

The space is large, enough to accommodate thousands of people.

And in the center of this platform, there is an antique temple.

Xu Bai turned his head and said, "It seems that the guy is right, at least there is really a temple here."

The sky is dark, and the temple is even darker, without even an oil lamp.

If it weren't for the two of them being sharp-eyed, they might have missed this temple.

Xu Bai and Yun Zihai came to the door, looked at the door that had been peeled off the paint, and then raised their heads and looked at the top of the door.

There is no plaque above the door. If the style of the building was not very similar to a temple, they would have thought it was an ordinary house.

"Brother Xu, let me do it." At this time, Yun Zihai suddenly spoke.

Although Xu Bai didn't know what Yun Zihai wanted to do, he still silently stepped back to make room for him.

Yun Zihai took two steps forward, picked up the brush, and wrote in the dark.

The brush wrote in the air, and lines of text fell.

The characters were not regular script, but rather had a cursive style.

Because the writing was too messy, Xu Bai looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure out what the characters were.

"Perhaps only their peers can tell." Xu Bai thought.

He couldn't help but think of an industry in his previous life, an industry that was said to be only seen by peers.

- Doctors.

Especially when Xu Bai was a child, the hospital was not like now, and prescriptions were all written through computers.

The prescriptions written by doctors at that time were not recognizable to ordinary people, but the people who dispensed the medicine could see them.

Just like now, Yun Zihai's actions were no different from the heavenly book in Xu Bai's eyes.

Fortunately, this action did not last long. After each word was formed, Yun Zihai paused with his brush and then retracted his right hand.

While retracting his right hand, he also raised his left hand. On his left hand, the thick book automatically opened, and one of the pages floated in the air.

The words floating in the air fell on the paper and were arranged in order. After a moment, a piece of paper emitting light appeared.

"Brother Xu, I'll use this as a boundary to frame the surroundings to prevent anyone from running out." Yun Zihai whispered, "But once it spreads, the people inside will definitely find out. My defense is not that strong. We have to act as soon as possible."

Xu Bai nodded.

Yun Zihai said no more and threw the paper in his hand into the air.

The pages gradually flew into the air and rotated in the center of the temple. The words kept circling, and there was a translucent barrier that vacated from the middle of the pages to cover the entire temple.

The barrier was very thin, just as Yun Zihai said, it could only block for a moment at most.

And this scene was so big that even an ordinary person could see the abnormality.

So they had to hurry up, break into the temple as soon as possible, and clear all the abnormalities in the temple.

As for the so-called sneaking in, it was even more dangerous.

First of all, they were not familiar with the terrain inside, and they would make mistakes if they were not careful.

Secondly, if the other party noticed it and ran away secretly, wouldn't they be empty-handed?

When the barrier was formed, Xu Bai and Yun Zihai looked at each other, and then Xu Bai raised his foot and stepped on the gate.

The gate, which was already old and dilapidated, was immediately broken into pieces after Xu Bai kicked it.

Xu Bai drew out the ghost-head knife, and the black light of the diamond heart demon body was shrouded on his body. He rushed in without saying a word.

Yun Zihai's reaction speed was not slow either. He followed closely behind Xu Bai and walked into the gate one after another.

But the next moment, the two of them stopped at the same time, looking at the situation inside the gate, their faces could not hide their surprise.

Originally, Xu Bai thought that after entering, it would definitely be a fierce battle, and it would take some time to get what he wanted.

But what he never expected was that the situation inside was unexpected.
