Chapter 156 Pinellia
"The Secret of the King of Medicine?!"
Hearing this, Qi Lu widened her eyes and looked at Ban Xia in disbelief, but she did not immediately believe Kevin's words.
She wanted to hear Banxia say it herself.
At this time, Banxia seemed to have no intention of responding to Lu Lu.
Banxia didn't think that the man who was knocked down by Kevin just now was sent by the Dingsi to capture Lu Lu and take him back, but that he was targeting one of her own.
After all, she had betrayed the organization. With the means those people had, they would definitely want to capture her and torture her would be the least of their worries.
"You... who are you?"
Banxia stared at Kevin, because the hairy man in front of him had accurately pointed out her identity.
But if he was the secret disciple of the King of Medicine, why did he attack the person who wanted to capture her just now?
Kevin didn't answer directly, but looked her up and down and continued to ask.
"You want to find the Medicine Dragon Girl to treat the evil spirit?"
"Ah?" Lulu at the side was a little confused. They didn't say anything, so how did the other party know?
"Are the signs so obvious, Sister Banxia?"
Kevin looked at Lu and asked, "As a doctor, you should have noticed that she was a descendant. Why did she show signs of a demonic body before her death?"
Banxia on the side was silent. This topic seemed difficult for her to talk about.
"…"
Kevin shook his head. To be honest, if Xing hadn't told him that Dihengsi had asked her to do so, if she met Mi Lu, she should try her best to persuade her to return to Dihengsi first and stop treating the evil spirit.
He had no intention of getting involved in this matter.
He had previously told Xing that he would be there soon, but it would probably take a while longer.
Now it seems like, your delivery guy is having fun, please wait a moment.
It doesn't matter. Within this limited time, as long as the guy can deliver it to the scene, it will be fine.
Kevin concentrated, clenched his five fingers, and a strangely colored pill appeared in his hand.
"Do you recognize this? The thing that caused you to be in this situation now..."
Looking at the medicine in front of her, Banxia's pupils shrank slightly, and she gritted her teeth and read out the name word by word with difficulty.
"Long Pan...Qiu Yue..."
There was panic and fear in her eyes, as if she was recalling something bad.
Kevin frowned slightly, perhaps thinking that the way he just handled things was too cryptic, so he decided to be more straightforward.
"Don't worry, I'm not the one who has learned the secrets of the King of Medicine. On the contrary, what I'm doing right now is tracking down the secrets of the King of Medicine."
As he spoke, he pulled out the certificate and permission with the seal of the Shen Ce Mansion and handed it to Banxia. This was the certificate given to him by Jing Yuan after he left the Shen Ce Mansion. It was just in time for him to take advantage of the situation.
Seeing that Banxia looked a little stunned, Kevin added another sentence.
"Of course, if you think this is fake, I can contact the strategist Chang Qingjian from the Shen Ce Mansion to verify it for you."
"No... no need, I believe it!"
Banxia subconsciously wanted to shake her head, but ignored the fact that her body was already unable to move.
As for the authenticity of this certificate, the local people in Xianzhou did not dare to forge the seal of the Shen Ce Palace, not to mention that the shaved man in front of them looked like a barbarian.
Not only did he knock down the man from the Dingsi just now, he also revealed her identity in one sentence and even knew the name of the chief strategist. If she was someone working for the Shen Ce Mansion, all of this seemed to make sense.
As soon as she finished speaking, Banxia felt that the feeling of restraint just now disappeared out of thin air, and the sudden feeling of weakness almost made her unable to stand.
"careful!"
Bai Lu took the opportunity to support her. Although she was not tall, her tail was still very powerful.
Banxia lowered her head and wanted to thank him, but she felt that Bailu's eyes looked at her with a complicated look.
"Lord Bailu, I..." Banxia was a little flustered. She didn't know where to start.
Bailu let go of the tail that was wrapped around her and hugged her hands to her chest, looking like a little adult.
"Tell me, what happened to the traitors to the secret teachings of the King of Medicine? Those people are fanatics who worship the devil's body and the ancestor of plague and longevity. How did you join such an organization?"
As expected, as soon as Bai Lu asked the question, Banxia looked conflicted again. She pursed her lips and lowered her eyes, struggling mentally.
If she tells the truth, will Miss Bailu still be willing to help her?
Kevin watched this scene and did not directly use the power of consciousness to spy on Banxia's heart, but he faintly felt the scent of melon.
When he first exchanged the secret information of the King of Medicine with Qing Du, he had been interested in the name Ban Xia and checked her information.
The letter sent to the Shen Ce Mansion that Xing had intercepted for the Medicine King Secret was sent by Banxia, and later he also discovered the Medicine King Secret's order to hunt her down.
At first, Kevin thought that the person who could do such a thing must be extraordinary. But when he actually saw him, he looked as if he was in a state of great evil and was begging for his life.
So, what was her reason for joining the Secret Sect of the King of Medicine and betraying the organization?
After finding out that you couldn't get the long penis you wanted after taking the elixir, you regretted it so much that you wanted to live?
Kevin didn't think this was the root cause, otherwise she wouldn't be so reluctant to speak when asked.
"I joined the Medicine King Secret Teachings because I wanted to ask them to... rescue my love and take Lord Bai Lu away from the Dan Ding Division... for this reason..."
After a series of ideological struggles, Banxia decided to tell the reason. She felt that even if she didn't say it, the man next to her would have a way to pry the truth out of her.
Besides, I don't have much time left...
"Huh?" Bai Lu couldn't believe her ears. "Didn't you say you wanted me to heal your demonic body? How come you're asking me to save your lover now?"
"Besides, you never mentioned your lover before..."
"I'm sorry, Master Bailu, I have no choice. If I hadn't said this..." Banxia lowered her head and murmured, "He is a short-lived man, and his life is insignificant..."
"Alas..." Bai Lu sighed, "I can only say that you don't understand Miss 㰴 at all..."
Then, she shook her head again: "Tell me, where is your lover? Whether it's you or him, I will save him!"
Upon hearing this, Banxia immediately showed an expression of gratitude.
Then, her face turned cautious again: "But I already have the signs of a demonic body. If I am interrogated by the Medicine King Secret Teachings or the Ten Kings Division... I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Liuyundu..."
"It seems we have to think of a solution." Bai Lu nodded and began to think.
"You just said that your lover is in Liuyundu?" Kevin asked suddenly, even though he had heard it clearly a long time ago.
He could tell that what Banxia had just said was not false, but he felt that there was some conspiracy involved.
Of course, the conspiracy was not Banxia, but the lover she mentioned.
Kevin was very clear about the current situation of Liuyun Ferry. Almost all the irrelevant personnel there had been cleared out.
When Jing Yuan was getting intelligence from Qing Dun before, the other party happened to mention the situation of Liuyun Ferry. After Jing Yuan went there, the cloud riders there stepped up their investigation efforts.
Apart from some remnants of the Medicine King's secret sect who might be hiding in the dark, there are almost no irrelevant personnel stationed there.
Even a judge of the Ten Kings Division who was handling the case caught a sneaky short-haired creature who was trying to gain immortality...
"Yes, is there any problem?" Banxia looked at Kevin. She felt a little strange that the other party seemed to know something.
Kevin nodded slightly, half leaning against the wall, and said slowly, "I don't think you need to go to Liuyundu anymore."
"Why...why?" Banxia was a little confused. Her breathing became rapid, as if the other party was about to announce some bad news.
Kevin glanced at Banxia's reaction and said mercilessly: "I heard that... the Ten Kings Division arrested someone there."
"Short-skinned," he added.Chapter 157 No Cure
After hearing Kevin mention the Liuyundu incident, Banxia was stunned, but this state did not last long.
Perhaps she was hoping for the best. Then, she smiled and looked at Kevin: "There are so many bastards in Liuyun Ferry, how come my lover was the one who was captured?"
Hearing this, Lu nodded in approval: "Indeed, there are many people coming and going at Liuyun Ferry, so it stands to reason that there should be quite a few short-skinned people there."
Kevin shook his head slightly. He couldn't blame these two.
Of these two guys, one was locked up for a long time and had just recently run away from home, while the other was a low-level cultivator of the King of Medicine's secret teachings.
The news was completely blocked, and coupled with the official concealment of the current situation, they were naturally unaware of the actions of the Shen Ce Fu and the Yunqi Army.
After thinking about it, Kevin raised his hand behind him, and a dark blue plastic chair appeared instantly.
"There's something wrong with Luo Fu right now, I'm sure you two have noticed it." Kevin bent down and sat down, crossed his arms, crossed his legs, and looked across. "For some reason, I can't reveal very detailed information to you."
"But the current Liuyun Ferry is not as bustling as you imagine... The Cloud Cavalry has already blocked and inspected it inside and outside, and there are almost no unrelated personnel stationed there."
If it was just a regular check, there might be some fish that slipped through the net. After Jingyuan went to Liuyundu, he personally stepped up the efforts.
The Cloud Riders searched through all the boxes and even the suitcases. Except for some of the Medicine King's secret followers who had great anti-reconnaissance capabilities and were able to escape, it was impossible for them not to search thoroughly.
Lu Lu scratched her head and said, "What if his lover left Liuyundu early?"
"Are you right, Miss Banxia?"
Lu looked at Banxia, but Banxia had a sullen face and no one knew what he was thinking.
Kevin nodded. Indeed, based on these alone, it was not possible to directly judge that the short-skinned man captured by the Ten Kings Division was Banxia's lover.
However, Kevin heard much more than just this in his previous conversation with Qing Dun.
Qing Dun said that the short-skinned man's crimes touched upon the ten heinous crimes, one of which was greed for immortality, and there might be more than just this one crime.
An unknown girl from Cloud Rider found a crucial piece of evidence at Liuyun Ferry, which was several phishing letters.
From the content of the letter, we learned that this short-haired man fell in love with a long-haired woman on a fairy boat while on his way to Luofu to seek medical treatment and medicine.
But this is not a mutual understanding between the two parties, but a series of scams carried out by the short-sighted man in order to obtain the elixir of life.
As a junior doctor of Dandingsi, the long-haired man received the short-haired man by chance and fell in love with him during the treatment.
Since the inner part of Danding Division had been infiltrated by the Secret of the King of Medicine a long time ago, the long-necked species also knew some information about the Secret of the King of Medicine. She revealed to the short-necked species that the Secret of the King of Medicine was real, and the long-necked elixir might also be true.
After hearing this, the short-haired boy, perhaps because he felt weak, or perhaps because he thought the long-haired girl was infatuated enough to be used by him, strongly persuaded the long-haired boy to join the Medicine King Secret Sect on his behalf.
This was originally his purpose of approaching the long-necked people. What he needed was not a cure, but equal respect from the long-necked people.
In other words, he also wants to become a long-legged person.
As an outsider seeking medicine, he did not have a long-term residence permit for the Immortal Boat. After a certain period of time, the Tianbosi sent him back.
Therefore, when asking the long-haired one to seek the elixir of immortality in the Secret Book of the King of Medicine, the short-haired one also asked her to investigate the list of people in the Secret Book of the King of Medicine.This was because if he could submit this list to the Shen Ce Mansion, it would be considered a great achievement, and perhaps it could be a means for him to stay in the Immortal Boat for a long time.
Moreover, he can also use it to threaten the Medicine King and get the elixir of immortality that he has always coveted.
Therefore, in order to avoid being found and sent back, he hid in the dressing box of Liuyun Ferry. After his arrival, the people of Medicine King's Secret Teachings also came here. This gave him an idea of improvement, indicating that the woman of immortality had been captured.
He waited for the woman to come to him with the elixir of life.
However, he did not expect that the Yunqi would suddenly intensify the search, not even sparing the women's suitcases. The judge of the Ten Kings Division was also here, and even the letter he left to guide the women to find him was found, becoming evidence to prove his actions.
This is roughly what happened. Qing Du did not mention the name of the short-lived man. Putting this series of events together, it is not difficult to judge that the short-lived man is Banxia's lover.
"No... No, Liang Mu wouldn't look at me like this..." Banxia covered her mouth with a look of disbelief, "He clearly said that the purpose of immortality is to accompany me for the rest of my life..."
Banxia's first reaction was actually confusion about Liang Mu's opinion of her, which also implicitly acknowledged that the person Kevin was talking about was indeed her lover.
Suddenly, she looked up at Kevin: "I don't believe that he is like this, unless you can provide corresponding evidence."
"Sure." Kevin spread his hands and immediately took out his cell phone to contact Qingdun.
The one who arrested Liang Mu was the judge of the Ten Kings Division. The Shen Ce Mansion had to deal with many cases and was already involved with the Ten Kings Division. After all, it was the Shen Ce Mansion that had arranged for Kevin to hand over the secret corpses of the King of Medicine to the Ten Kings Division.
Therefore, if she tells this to Kevin's strategist Chang Qingzhu, she will know more details.
Banxia pursed her lips. After all, she just didn't want to believe it.
Does he have so much free time to make up such a real lie just to deceive her?
In what she thought was love, she considered herself lower than anyone else; in life, she was just as insignificant.
Bai Lu glanced at Kevin who was communicating with Qing Dun, and then looked at Ban Xia who was silent. She decided to change the subject: "Ms. Ban Xia, can you tell me about the Long Pan Qiu Yue Dan you took? If there is any useful information, maybe I can prescribe the right medicine for you."
Banxia half opened her mouth, a little stunned, and quickly nodded: "Sorry to trouble Lord Bailu, as far as I know, there is no antidote for this Long Pan Qiu Yue Dan."
"The secret teachings of the King of Medicine regard the demonic body as the path to immortality, so the original purpose of creating this medicine was to artificially induce the demonic body. If there is an antidote, then the demonic body will no longer be an incurable disease."
"Everyone who has received the secret teachings of the King of Medicine has taken various strange prescriptions to catalyze the devil's Yin body, and even me... is no exception."
When it comes to pharmacology, Banxia is just a small medical practitioner and is not as proficient as the alchemists. However, in order to find the elixir of immortality for Liang Mu, she also has to learn about this area.
Bai Lu's expression was somewhat solemn. Indeed, if there was an antidote for this medicine, why would she be so dedicated to treating the evil spirit?
Banxia took a deep breath, with a hint of fear and fatigue in her eyes: "Becoming an immortal is a very scary thing. After turning into a demon, only the flesh will remain. Everything in the past, even yourself, will become unclear..."
"So, I escaped from the Secret Teachings of the King of Medicine because I didn't want to forget Liang Mu, but it seemed that I couldn't fulfill my promise to him..."
As she spoke, she raised her head and laughed self-deprecatingly: "Because this so-called elixir of life is not the blessing of immortality at all, it is not even a poor imitation..."
"People are turned into... monsters, right?"
As for the demonic body, Bai Lu still treats it as a disease.
But she also knew that this disease seemed to be incurable...
The Dragon Girl's tears can cure all diseases, except for the demonic body. All she can do is delay the disease a little and alleviate the patient's pain...Chapter 158 Surrender and Suppression
"This is the evidence collected by the Ten Kings Division in Liuyun Ferry. You can judge for yourself which one is true and which one is false." Kai constructed the photo of the letter sent by Qingdi into a real object and handed it to Banxia.
Then, Kai added: "By the way, the last letter was found on his body."
"Hmm..." Banxia nodded slightly. She lowered her eyes and took the letter, but did not rush to open it, as if the content of the letter was like a verdict on her life.
After a long silence, Banxia opened the letter and started reading it.
"..."Banxia had a gloomy face. At first, the contents of the three letters did not reveal anything. They were nothing more than Liang Mu's instructions for her to go to Liuyun Ferry, and his expression of gratitude and longing for her.
Banxia didn't think these letters were forged. She remembered Liang Mu's handwriting very clearly. In addition to the regular pen strokes, the other party also retained special marks that belonged to the author alone. This was also the basis for the two parties to judge whether the person writing the letter was the real person.
These letters were indeed written by Liang Mu. Liang Mu was really captured by the Ten Kings Division...
As she said, Banxia had been harboring a lucky mentality before, but now, her luck is gradually being exhausted.
Banxia was still hoping that what Kai said about Liang Mu's opinion of her was false, and that Liang Mu loved her. This was her last defense.
However, the facts tore a big hole in her inner luck and hit her hard.
Banxia didn't know under what circumstances Liang Mu wrote the last letter, and he still kept it with him.
Perhaps it was a plan in advance, or perhaps it was just his inspiration after staying in Liuyun Ferry for a long time. Banxia only knew that the content of the letter was full of determination and made her extremely sad.
"Banxia, I must make it clear that I have never liked you. I decided to get close to you because you said you could make the elixir of immortality; I encouraged you to kill them because you said the Medicine King's Secret Teachings were real; I was willing to take the risk of waiting for you at Liuyun Ferry because you said you could get the list of the Medicine King's Secret Teachings.
You have no idea how long I have been hiding in this simple container, you have no idea how vicious the people from the Medicine King's Secret Sect are, you have no idea how dangerous the people from the Ten Kings Division are, I've had enough of this!
Don't worry, after this is done, I won't bother you anymore; if I get caught, you won't have an easy time either! "
In this letter, Liang Mu's tone and attitude are very different from those in the previous letters and from the him in Banxia Yinqi.
She didn't know whether it was the omen of Qi's transformation into a demon that made her weak, or whether it was Liang Mu's words in the letter that broke through the last line of defense in her heart.
For a moment, Banxia felt dazed, and even the evil spirit body that she had just suppressed began to become unstable.
"Miss Banxia...Miss Banxia?" Bai Lu patted her shoulder and returned her medicine gourd. "Don't think too much. Drink the medicine first..."
Kai stood up and gave up his chair.
"Thank you." Bai Lu showed a grateful expression to Kai and helped Banxia sit down smoothly.
Then, she half-raised the medicine gourd and slowly poured the liquid medicine into Banxia's mouth: "Miss Banxia, you will feel better after drinking the medicine."
The medicine that Bailu fed Banxia was not a refined elixir or the like. Its most essential ingredient was her own tears.
According to legend, Bai Lu could heal wounds simply by touching and shedding tears. This is why after she became an official at the Dan Ding Si, everyone respectfully called her the Medicine-Bearing Dragon Girl.
Although her tears do not have a definite therapeutic effect, drinking some of them can cure most difficult and complicated diseases. Perhaps Banxia really saw this and thought of asking Bailu to heal her lover.
Even so, this medicine was eventually used on Banxia herself again. Her tears still had a significant suppressing effect on the evil spirit.
As expected, not long after taking it, Banxia's consciousness gradually became clearer, and the omen of the evil spirit was suppressed to a certain extent.
"Why did he... lie to me?" This was Banxia's first words after she woke up.
Bai Lu didn't know what to say. She had read some of the contents of the letters just now. If the last few words were sincere, then Liang Mu was really a scumbag.
But for now, it's better not to talk about these things. She looked at Banxia and advised: "Miss Banxia, don't think about these things, otherwise your symptoms may recur..."
"Miss Bailu…" Banxia looked at Bailu and said with a self-deprecating smile, "Tell me, do I deserve the way I am now…?"
Bai Lu was silent. She didn't want to answer this question.
Unable to get the other party's answer, Banxia chuckled helplessly, she raised her head slightly and sighed: "When I treated Liang Mu, I just felt that there was no need to struggle for a life that was so short that it would pass in the blink of an eye.
Seeing him endure the pain and insist on receiving treatment, my heart tightened.
That feeling was both sweet and painful. I had never experienced it before in my life. I also never thought that I would fall in love with a short-lived person.
I don't know when Liang Mu changed his mind, but he said in the letter that he had never loved me. I feel that everything I did was in vain…"
Kai listened silently to Banxia telling her story, and he felt that this was a bad fate.
One is to selflessly devote oneself to the lover, even at the cost of one's own life; the other is to completely exploit the love of the other to achieve one's own goals.
From some perspectives, all the disciples are wrong. Pinellia ternata is the secret teaching of the King of Medicine. According to the process of becoming a disciple, it is inevitable that she will be assigned tasks that are against the law.
As for Liang Mu, Kai believed that, regardless of the fact that he had committed the Ten Evils, it was extremely shameful for him to play with love in order to seek immortality.
In comparison, the consequences that Banxia endured were nothing more than self-inflicted suffering.
What about you and Otto? Wasn't Qi Xiang's final outcome also a result of his own actions? ]The voice in my head suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Kai was slightly stunned. It's not that he didn't react, but he was puzzled as to why the voice in his head asked this question. However, he still expressed his thoughts in his heart: "At least we are all firm in our choices and are happy to accept the ending we want." '
Otto Apokalis, in order to resurrect his lover, he did not hesitate to plan five thousand lives, and even subverted the rules of the world at the cost of erasing his own existence. This kind of ending was what he expected very much, and he would never regret it.
For myself, for Mei, I chose to be the Fire Moth, chose to become a fusion warrior, chose to believe in the choice Mei made for me, the Stigmata Project, the burden of saving my father.䀴In order to complete these paths, one must become a machine that exists only with reason.
Do you regret it?
Kai's answer was: I have never regretted it.
But, does this woman regret it now after learning the truth?
Banxia's tone revealed nostalgia and sadness. She missed her first acquaintance with Liang Mu, and she also felt sad that the other party had never loved her.
In this trance, Banxia seemed to suddenly come to an idea. She looked at Bailu and made her own decision: "Miss Bailu, please don't bother following me. Next, I want to go to the Tenth King's Division."
As she spoke, she slowly stood up, holding onto the chair.
"You... aren't planning to jailbreak?" Bai Lu looked at Banxia in surprise, uncertainly.
Liang Mu was arrested for committing the Ten Evils and should have been imprisoned in the Prison of the Ten Kings.
Banxia shook her head and smiled bitterly, "How can a weak woman like me have the ability to break into the prison? Didn't he say in the letter that if he was arrested, I would not have an easy life either? Then I will surrender myself."The purpose of Liang Mu's writing the letter could not have been to dissuade Banxia from looking for him after he was arrested, because his subsequent words clearly showed his intention of dragging the other party into the water.
He knew the risks of what he was doing. If he was caught, he would be finished. So why not take the other party with him?
"I will confess to the Ten Kings Division all the crimes we have committed. After all, my condition is now hopeless, isn't it?" Banxia said with some relief.
She wasn't sure whether she felt regretful or not. Now, she just wanted to have some closure with Liang Mu.
"But, in your current condition, can you really do those things?" Bai Lu grabbed the corner of Banxia's clothes and looked at her with some concern.
Banxia was silent. She didn't know how long she could hold on. Maybe her evil spirit would attack her halfway and she would be taken away by the people from the Ten Kings Division.
Now, she felt that the evil spirit was not so scary anymore. However, she was still unwilling in her heart. She wanted to hold on until she could hear the verdict of Liang Mu's crime.
After that, no matter how the Ten Kings Division punishes me, it doesn't matter.
"Perhaps, I have a way to help you temporarily delay the arrival of the evil spirit." Kevin, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.
"Really?" Bai Lu's eyes suddenly lit up, but soon she felt that she was too excited.
The other party doesn't look like someone who knows medicine, and as a barbarian, does he really know anything about the devil's body?
Banxia also looked at Kevin with some confusion. She probably had the same idea as Bailu.
"Do you really have a way to suppress the evil spirit?" Banxia still asked, but after she said it, she had a bad feeling.
As expected, Kevin spread his hands and told the truth: "In theory, it should work, but I have never had the opportunity to try it."
Banxia was a little confused. So, she was the first experimental subject?
Kevin didn't pay attention to her reaction and continued to explain: "The conventional explanation for the demonic body is that it can't bear the long memory and the emotional threshold exceeds the upper limit, but you are different. Your demonic body was forcibly catalyzed and caused it to come early. This is not a conventional problem of consciousness, so I need to prescribe the right medicine."
"If what you said is true, I am willing to give it a try." Banxia gritted her teeth. She knew there was no other way, so she might as well give it a try.
Bai Lu did not express her opinion. After all, this was Banxia's own decision. She knew Banxia's situation well, so she might as well give it a try.
Besides, she was also curious whether Kevin really had the means to deal with the evil spirit. At least she felt that what the uncle said should not be a lie.
"Okay, let's start now." Kevin nodded, he raised his hand, and instantly, the thick black death energy spread in his palm - the power of death.
The demonic body is not a symbol of life and death. On the contrary, after falling into the demonic body, the body will still exist, but the original consciousness cannot withstand this change and leads to collapse.
As the saying goes, the end of the short-lived species is aging and death, but the long-lived demonic Yin body on the Immortal Boat is endless abundance. This is also the reason why the cloud riders will kill their companions who have turned into demonic Yin bodies when they first set foot on the Immortal Boat.
After all, after falling into the devil's Yin, its nature will gradually become closer to that of a rich evil creature.
"Ah? Okay!" Banxia didn't expect the other party to start so soon. She glanced at the black air emanating from Kevin's hand and felt creepy and extremely terrifying, but she still plucked up the courage to close her eyes.
Bai Lu was not idle either. She was looking around vigilantly. After all, this was a public place, but fortunately there were no passers-by.
Kevin twitched his five fingers slightly, and the power of death quickly spread and surged into Banxia's body, starting the treatment.
Normally speaking, Kevin had no reason to help Banxia. As an eyewitness, Banxia had no reason not to pay the price for her choice, even if she saw the truth clearly.
But this time, Kevin was still willing to give her a push, at least to let her complete the path she chose.
The deathly energy traveled through Banxia's meridians, and Banxia immediately let out a painful groan.
Her body had already been completely changed by abundance, and the golden branches belonging to his demonic body had already shown signs of forming, but as the power of death withered and decomposed, these signs were gradually erased.
Kevin's operation was very smooth. Although he was not as proficient in using the power of death as he was in other powers, it was enough for this situation.
The pain gradually subsided, and the frenzy of her body gradually calmed down. Banxia slowly opened her eyes. She felt that the pressure of her body on her consciousness had been relieved a lot.
"That's enough." Kevin took back the power and spoke.
Banxia nodded and immediately bowed to thank Kevin, but was interrupted by Kevin.
Kevin looked at her and stated the facts mercilessly: "Don't be happy too soon. I said that I was only helping you to delay it temporarily, but the fact is also true. You have eaten Long Pan Qiu Yue, so you should know the ingredients, right?
I have destroyed the beginnings of abundance, but the immortal power will still cause it to grow again, and you cannot avoid the final result. "
Kevin still doesn't know how to deal with immortality. According to the current situation, immortality should have the functions of changing and maintaining, which can both catalyze the demonic body and maintain consciousness.
According to legend, the once immortal dragon descendants, in their hometown of Tanghai, used their immortal power to transform and catalyze various spirits into the forms they desired.
Although the immortal dragon has fallen and the immortal fate seems to have some problems, the mystery of immortality can still be seen.
To be honest, Kevin didn't know how long his ability to help Banxia suppress the demon's Yin body could last. The immortal power was at work, and perhaps it could catalyze the process again, or perhaps it could maintain the current state. It was unknown how things would develop in the end.
But he still needed to tell the worst outcome.
Banxia shook her head and bowed to Kevin again: "But I still want to thank you. In fact, this is enough for me."
Banxia was about to leave. Before leaving, she looked at Kevin and asked, "Can I know your name?"
"Kevin." Kevin said calmly.
Looking at Banxia's departing back, Bai Lu spread out her hands and sighed with some regret: "I hope Miss Banxia can get what she wants..."
Kevin held his chin and thought, "If she surrenders to the Ten Kings Division, given her situation, she may not be punished much."
"Ah?" Bai Lu was a little confused.
Kevin glanced at Bai Lu and explained in detail: "She once submitted intelligence about the secret teachings of the King of Medicine to the Shen Ce Mansion. Qing Yu and I have witnessed this. Moreover, she has a list of names about the secret teachings of the King of Medicine on her. If she surrenders herself, it can be said that she has made up for her mistake.
After all, she was persuaded by Liang Mu to learn the secret teachings of the King of Medicine. The main responsibility still lies with the other party. There may be punishment, but it will not be too severe. "
"In that case, I'm relieved." Bai Lu nodded and sat down on a white plastic chair. She held her chin and looked up at Kevin. "Uncle, can you tell me what the immortal power in the dragon is?"
…Chapter 159 This is not comfort, it is reality
"The marrow of the heart." Kai replied.
"Ah?" Bai Lu was slightly stunned, her expression a little surprised. She doubted whether she had heard it wrongly.
"You heard it right, the key to Longpanqiuyue's cure is Chimingsui." Kai repeated it again. At the same time, he instantly constructed a pharmacological analysis of Longpanqiuyue.
This is what Kai used the power of reason to analyze after he had refined the elixir. Logically speaking, there should be corresponding pharmacological research in the Secret Biography of the King of Medicine, but his version would only be more detailed.
For this reason, after reaching the analysis conclusion, Kai also sent a copy to the Shen Ce Mansion when negotiating with Qing Di.
There is indeed no real antidote for Longpanqiuyuedan, but there are corresponding preventive measures. Although I learned from Banxia that there is more than one secret drug passed down by the King of Medicine that can catalyze the devil's Yin body, their properties are similar. I hope that this pharmacological analysis can help the situation.
Kai handed the pharmacological analysis to Bai Lu and asked calmly, "As the elder of the Chiming tribe, what do you think is going on?"
After taking a look at the contents of the pharmacological analysis, Bai Lu couldn't help but sigh in her heart that the person who could analyze the pharmacology of this drug must be a genius, but at the same time, she also felt creepy, and even her tail began to wag uneasily.
"The marrow of the Chi Ming needed for this medicine must be taken alive..." Bai Lu murmured in a low voice, and began to have some guesses in her mind, "This method is extremely cruel, but there is no news in the Chi Ming tribe, and I am completely unaware of it."
She looked up at Kai and expressed her doubts: "The Medicine King Secret can obtain materials frequently, it is very likely that there is a deal with someone in the Chiming tribe. I don't have much power in the tribe, but some people can easily do it and conceal it..."
"Who?" Kai asked.
Bai Lu lowered her eyes, pursed her lips, and said slowly: "I can only think of... Master Long."
Although she was the Dragon Lord of the Luofu Chiming Clan, she was usually managed by the Dragon Master and his group of pedantic old fellows. She never expected that they would do such a deal behind the scenes.
Hearing this, Kai nodded, and reminded Bai Lu in his heart: "Now that you know, pay more attention."
"Uh... is that all?" Bai Lu felt that after she had said so much, the other party must have some other plans before listening to this.
"I have already discussed the matter of the Chiming Marrow with the Shen Ce Mansion. Logically, they should have guessed something." Kai didn't have any idea about the intrigues within the Chiming Clan. He was not the kind of person who liked to meddle in other people's affairs.
The people of the Chiming Clan have colluded with the Medicine King's Secret Teachings, and the Xianzhou Alliance will hold them accountable afterwards. These things have nothing to do with him, so why should he get involved? The purpose of his asking these questions was just to remind Bai Lu to be careful.
"The current situation is very delicate. The Dandingsi Cave Heaven has been blocked, the Chiming Clan is restless, and the Medicine King's secret teachings are also wandering around. If you continue to wander around outside, I won't tell you what will happen next..." Kai stared at Bai Lu, reminding her of her current situation.
Bai Lu nodded silently, lowered her head to look through the pharmacological analysis in her hand to cover up the embaChapter 160 Destination
After watching Xiaoyu leave safely, Xing immediately turned around and looked in the direction of Ruomuting.
In her haste to save the situation, she neglected to weaken the power that bound Dan Shu to a level where it could move freely.
Although the scope of the constraint area was set to the entire Ruomuting, and Dan Shu could not get out without her control, she was still not very reassured.
Even though there were few people nearby due to the falling of the star core, if someone accidentally stepped into the restricted area without her knowledge, even if their life was not in danger, she would not be in any good condition.
However, when Xing saw the figure of An Shouji in Ruomuting, the stone in his heart fell down.
When Xing Qi returned to Ruomu Pavilion, she saw Dan Shu nodding at her and thanking her: "Thank you for your help, Xing."
Xing waved her hands, feeling a bit complicated: "No need to thank me, I just don't like those kids, that kid didn't do anything wrong..."
Dan Shu did not speak immediately, but turned around and walked to the fence beside him, leaning over it.
She looked up at the misty sea of clouds in the distance and sighed, "People like us who are born with incomplete talents are bound to suffer humiliation when we are young. Even though I have gone through so much hardship and have achieved the high position of Chief of the Alchemy Staff, I am still helpless against many evils."
"So, you joined the Secret Sect of the King of Medicine to treat your eyes, or to take revenge on those who bullied you?" Xing frowned slightly, sat down by the fence, and asked in great confusion.
From this brief time together, Xing could feel that the other party was different from those ordinary believers. She was gentle and kind, unlike the crazy people she had in her impression.
Xing wondered why Dan Shu wanted to join the Secret Teachings of the King of Medicine? If Kevin hadn't been so sure of this fact, I would have just left with my doubts.
"No, the Medicine King's secret teachings... the Demonic Yin Body does have this ability, but this is not my purpose." Dan Shu shook his head and explained calmly, "The appearance, intelligence, height, and physical conditions of the Immortals are all permanently fixed in the genes of their flesh and blood since the moment they are born."
"Therefore, those surgeries or devices that can make up for defects in the short-lived species are powerless against us immortal species. Our bodies will be restored to their original appearance no matter what means are used or what devices are implanted."
Xing nodded. As for the knowledge in this area for Tianquezhe, she had heard so many alchemists recommend Danshu to her along the way, so she had more or less learned something about it.
But Xing still felt something was wrong. Dan Shu himself was a person with a missing body, and he explained it in such detail, could it be possible that...
"Have you tried it?" Xing asked Dan Shu.
Dan Shu nodded and was about to speak, but a calm male voice came from the side: "Indeed, she tried to install a prosthetic eye for herself, and she did gain a brief moment of brightness."
Dan Shu chuckled, but continued, "Those were ten extremely short yet long days. During those ten days, I regained my light, but I also endured increasing pain all the time."
"While my artificial eye was gradually rejected by my body, my blind eye was also growing stronger. Like a robber, it squeezed out the eyes that gave me light, and eventually occupied the entire eye socket."
"I remember clearly that the sunset that day dyed the entire sky red, like a big fire."
Dan Shu's tone when he spoke, besides being filled with pain, was also full of nostalgia.
But what is she missing?
"Brother Kevin, when did you come?" Xing turned her head quickly, but she resisted the urge to interrupt Dan Shu.
Kevin crossed his arms, glanced at Xing, and replied seriously, "Tathagata."
Xing curled her lips, and then she realized that now was not the time to ask this, so she simply shut her mouth.
"Are you the person behind her?" Dan Shu turned and faced Kevin.
Since he was born blind, Dan Shu's other senses were more open than ordinary people. However, the appearance of the man in front of him did not cause any changes to the surroundings. There was no sound or any fluctuation in space.
This ability was enough to make her unable to resist.
"Dan Shu, the chief alchemist of Dan Ding Division, and also the leader of the secret teachings of the King of Medicine." Kevin did not respond, but directly revealed her identity.In fact, he arrived at Ruomuting when Xing left Ruomuting to help.
But Kai did not intend to show up. He did not choose to use the power of wind to change the fluid to achieve the effect of invisibility, but to reduce his presence to almost nothing.
This is one of the abilities brought by the black substance he obtained after upgrading the Cocoon of the End and counterattacking across the imaginary numbers.
Kaiyi silently observed the worries and doubts that Danshu expressed when no one was around. Everyone has a true side that is unknown to others.
Dan Shu nodded, his emotions not fluctuating too much: "It seems that you have done a very detailed investigation."
"I know your life experience, and I can probably guess why you want to do all this." Kai did not deny it, but asked knowingly, "Is it because of the pain of the Third War of Plenty?"
Dan Shu raised his head suddenly, his hollow eyes suddenly filled with anger and horror: "Where did you know this?"
"You underestimated the capabilities of the Divine Strategy Office and the Ten Kings Division. They only need one target." Kai said truthfully. Qing Zhu, the chief strategist, and the people from the Ten Kings Division acted swiftly and quickly, and soon investigated Dan Shu's life in every detail.
"I understand that the Third War of Plenty was ultimately turned around by the arrow shot across the stars by Emperor Gong Lan, but that kind of attack made no distinction between friend and foe." Kai explained this fact calmly, as if he was reminding Dan Shu, or as if he was explaining away the confusion of Xing who was standing aside.
"The war finally ended, and we won, but my best friend Yu Fei stayed there forever..." Dan Shu admitted this fact, her tone full of hatred, "She did not die at the hands of Feng Raomin, but was turned to ashes by the divine arrow of Emperor Bow Siming, and no bones are left."
"Since then, I have figured out some things. I wish that all living things on earth can grow freely, revive those that He wishes to destroy, and destroy those that He wishes to survive!"
Dan Shu's expression was extremely ferocious, and even Xing beside him was stunned. His expression at this moment was very different from before, which made her feel deeply uncomfortable.
Kai was silent for a moment after hearing this. He looked at Dan Shu and asked him, "You claim to be a hunter who was abandoned by your own beliefs, but what you are doing now is also a kind of hunter, isn't it?"
Dan Shu was slightly stunned, and her expression gradually eased. She looked at Kai Yu again: "But what if you have captured me? Even without me, the plan will not stop here..."
...
There was a fortune-telling shop and card hall near Changletian Plaza. There were quite a lot of people here. Four of them were sitting around a small card table, chattering about something.
"I didn't expect that the two of them would also get involved." Kai sat on a chair waiting, looking at the four people at the card table not far away.
Sanyueqi, Tingyun, the fortune teller Qingque who guided them, and Ruoyue, the proprietress here, these four people were having a lot of fun.
"Brother Kai, I'm wondering, does the actions of the Medicine King Secret Sect count as a conflict of faith with the Xianzhou Alliance?" Xing on the side did not want to get involved in the card game over there.
A few minutes ago, because of Dan Shu's special identity, Kai directly escorted her and a secret believer of the King of Medicine who had fainted from nowhere to the Ten Kings Division. Xing also saw the appearance of the Ten Kings Division.
The environment there could only be described as eerie and terrifying. Moreover, the Judge of the Ten Kings Division who came out to guide them had no blood on his face, almost like a living dead. But that was not the point. However, what Dan Shu said before still lingered in her mind.
"Yes, but also no." Kai replied, "The Xianzhou Alliance is very tolerant of differences in beliefs."
"As far as I know, among the short-lived species currently residing in Xianzhou, some are from the Ming Dynasty who believe that the Abundant Medicine Master is the legitimate god of the temple. However, the Alliance still treats them fairly, but the premise is that they must abide by the laws of Xianzhou, respect the customs and habits of Xianzhou, and not hurt the feelings of the people of Xianzhou."
The Xianzhou Alliance followed Xunlie Lan's edict and made the elimination of the Abundant Pharmacist and the evil creatures he brought as the primary goal. It was normal to have a conflict of faith with the Medicine King's Secret Teachings, but this was by no means as simple as a conflict of faith.
What's more, the early members of the Medicine King's secret sect, headed by Dan Shu, were more motivated by the purpose of revenge against the hunters rather than immortality.
"Do you remember what the judge of the Ten Kings Division said just now?" Kai looked at Xing and asked.
Xing nodded: "She said that the secret teachings of the King of Medicine violate seven of the 'Ten Unforgivable Evils' laws..."
Greedy for immortality, causing one to lose the ability to live forever, luring people into evil, slaughtering their own clans, stealing secrets, sowing discord among alliances, and causing war.
The punishment for this crime will be the secret teachings of the King of Medicine and the final fate of Danshu...
