The Gu wine refined by Li Changting is actually a kind of medicinal wine that assists in cultivation. It requires a lot of precious natural treasures, and is combined with rare Gu insects to refine medicinal wines with different medicinal properties.
Only on rare occasions would she take it out to share with others. Only those who were extremely close to Li Changting knew that she had this kind of wine. It was a coincidence for people like Li Yan.
Although everyone here is a cultivator, whether a person is afraid of the poisonous insect or not is completely different from this method of directly swallowing the poisonous insect.
The poisonous insect is the most poisonous creature in the world, and its appearance is even more terrifying. If you are not afraid of it, it only means that you have the ability to avoid or kill it, but it does not mean that you can swallow it directly into your stomach without any scruples.
The wine in their bowls is amber in color, with a strong aroma. If you don't look closely, it is difficult to find that there are very thin threads moving around.
Those hair threads are much thinner than a hair and are light yellow in color, almost the same color as wine. If you are not a monk, it would be difficult to see them.
Gong Chenying and Miao Wangqing noticed the difference with the attentiveness typical of girls when they picked up the wine. Gong Chenying hesitated for a moment, and when she saw Zhao Min drink it up in one gulp without hesitation, she drank it without any hesitation. Miao Wangqing just stood there in a daze.
However, everyone knew who Li Wuyi was, and how could he let Li Changting act recklessly. They also knew that drinking this wine would be harmless and would have other wonderful uses.
But when he saw the densely packed, thread-like poisonous insects in the wine bowl, with sharp heads and tails and bodies covered with tiny barbed spines, and thought about these little things swimming around in his body like shrunken thorny maggots, he couldn't help but feel a little scalp-tingling.
But after scanning his body with his spiritual sense, he found nothing. He thought that those poisonous insects could not survive after entering his body and had become part of the medicinal power.
However, no one knew what means Li Changting used to keep tens of thousands of poisonous insects alive in the wine, and finally turn them into a tonic without causing any harm to the human body.
In fact, this Gu is an extremely rare "wandering Gu", which is extremely poisonous. It likes to live in groups and is basically in a dormant state throughout its life. Only when stimulated by the outside world will it attack in groups like a tide.
In a formation visible to the naked eye, thousands and thousands of them drill into the enemy's body through the pores and acupoints, and then swim around randomly inside the body. Wherever they pass, the barbs on the fine spines on their body surface will directly hook the enemy's blood vessels and inject venom while swimming.
An ordinary adult would die immediately if a "wandering thread Gu" penetrated into his body within a few moments. Even if he was a Qi Condensation cultivator, if there was no antidote, three to five of them entering his body would be enough to take his life.
After Li Changting finally obtained the "Youxian Gu" eggs, he spent a lot of money to cultivate them alive, and then pestered his aunt Li Yuyin for a long time before he got a secret method of refining it.
Finally, he spent thousands of spirit stones to purchase six kinds of precious medicinal materials, and used secret methods to refine these "wandering thread poisons" into the wine.
These "wandering thread insects" are originally extremely sleepy creatures, but under the stimulation of those drugs, they wander around in the wine day and night, constantly releasing their own venom while wandering.
The venom is then absorbed and neutralized by the medicine. However, since these "wandering thread insects" have been soaked in medicine for a long time, not only are the venom in their bodies absorbed, but their bodies also undergo changes.
Once it leaves the medicinal wine and changes its surrounding environment, it will die immediately and its body will instantly collapse and turn into juice, flowing into water along with the wine.
So it must have cost a lot of money to Li Changting to take out the wine for everyone to drink this time. These jars of wine had to be fermented and neutralized for at least ten years before they could be drunk. Otherwise, with such a large amount of poison in them, anyone who touched them would die instantly.
It is so precious that if you take a jar outside and find someone who knows its value, it would be easy to sell it for seven or eight thousand spirit stones.
"What's wrong? You don't dare to drink?"
Li Changting's face fell, and she stared at several people. Finally, her eyes fell on Li Wuyi and Li Yan. Li Yan was a little embarrassed when she looked at him.
"Drink, drink..."
Li Wuyi looked at the swimming creature in the wine bowl that seemed to be crawling all over his body, and his face turned pale.
"Drink, of course I should drink, it's just that the wine is too strong, I'd better drink less, didn't Wei Lao Er say that he would share more of the burden for Senior Brother?"
He immediately glanced at Wei Chituo, and this glance made Wei Chituo's blood boil. His face turned red for a moment, but he was speechless.
Under Li Changting's gaze, Li Wuyi gritted his teeth, picked up the wine and drank it in one gulp, then quickly picked up a piece of monster meat and started eating it in big mouthfuls, as if this piece of meat was like a huge mountain that could crush the poisonous insects the moment it entered his stomach.
Wei Chituo had already lost his previous heroic spirit, and after hearing Li Wuyi's words, he gritted his teeth. Looking at the densely packed insects in the wine bowl, he could no longer smell the aroma of wine, and the hand holding the wine began to tremble uncontrollably.
Li Changting glanced at everyone one by one, and looked at everyone except Zhao Min, Gong Chenying, and of course Yun Chunqu who was in meditation, feeling embarrassed.
But the way she looked at Miao Wangjing was different from the way she looked at others. When she looked at Miao Wangqing, Li Changting raised her eyebrows and a hint of disdain appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Then, he casually picked up the wine bowl and gently raised it to Li Wuyi who was devouring the monster meat, and drank it all in one gulp. With oil dripping from his mouth, Li Wuyi had to pick up the wine bowl again with a bitter face and drink it.
This action immediately made Miao Wangqing so angry that her face turned pale. In front of everyone, she drank the wine in her hand without any hesitation, then picked up the wine jar and filled it up again!
With Li Wuyi's somewhat desperate eyes, she raised her bowl to signal Li Wuyi, and drank it in one gulp without delay, but her face became even paler. Li Wuyi had to pick up the wine bowl with shaking hands...
Then, something strange happened. The eldest senior brother, who had always been able to drink a lot and had reached the level of fake elixir, fell drunk to the ground after drinking three bowls of wine in a row and swallowing more than ten kilograms of monster meat.
No matter how others pushed and pulled him, he would not wake up, even though Li Changting and Miao Wangqing cooperated very well for the first time, pinching, kicking, pulling and tugging... He was unconscious and fell into a deep sleep without any drunkenness!
Li Changting was so angry that he looked at his other fellow disciples viciously. This look made Wei Chituo, Wen Xinliang, Lin Daqiao and Li Yan feel cold in their hearts, fearing that this senior sister would suddenly lose her temper.
One by one, they began to drink and eat with a smile on their faces...
Gong Chenying and Zhao Min continued to drink in silence, only occasionally making eye contact with each other.
The night was as cool as water. Everything that comes together must eventually separate. With Lin Daqiao staggering, Wei Chituo feeling heartbroken, Yun Chun seeming extremely satisfied, and Wen Xinliang hiding his head and tail, everyone dispersed, leaving behind only the mess in the yard and Li Yan's lonely figure!
After everyone had left, Li Yan looked at the place where Gong Chenying and Zhao Min had just sat. The scene of the two drinking just now flashed through his mind, but Li Yan felt that it was different from before.
The two of them seemed to be drinking calmly, but they seemed to be recalling their past interactions. Every bit of the past seemed to flow in the wine, taking it away and going far away...
Li Yan couldn't understand Zhao Min's thoughts, but he could sense that she was even more silent today. During the gathering, Gong Chenying and Zhao Min went out of the courtyard alone for a while.
While Wei Chituo, Lin Daqiao and Wen Xinliang were arm in arm, and Miao Wangqing was slightly drunk and laughing, no one noticed that when Gong Chenying and Zhao Min came back, Zhao Min's face seemed to become a little paler under the moonlight cast by the swaying bamboo shadows.
She looked at Li Yan intentionally or unintentionally, with a complexity in her eyes, and Gong Chenying also looked a little embarrassed. After coming back, she sat there silently, occasionally drinking a bowl of wine in one gulp, but she did not look at Li Yan again, just staring blankly at the wine bowl.
Li Changting saw this clearly. She looked at the two of them with a little confusion. Even Li Wuyi, who was in a drunken dream, seemed to raise his eyelids slightly.
After that, Zhao Min became even more silent, sometimes looking at the people playing, sometimes looking at the moonlight, her eyes full of confusion.
Who cares about the cold west wind, singing here, and people wandering...
But this atmosphere was soon broken. Miao Wangqing, who was already slightly drunk, with her pretty face flushed with alcohol, walked over with a charming smile, and held Gong Chenying and Zhao Min's hands to talk to them.
The two of them could only smile and chat with her randomly. For a moment, the coolness seemed to have temporarily left the courtyard.
Until she left, Zhao Min didn't say a word to Li Yan, but Gong Chenying whispered a word to Li Yan when she passed by Li Yan on her way out.
"Wait for me tomorrow morning, and don't leave the courtyard."
This made Li Yan confused for a moment, but he couldn't help but think more about it.
"Is this just a private conversation?"
Thinking of this, his dark face actually turned red. After a while, he looked towards the place where someone had sat in the courtyard. The fluctuations in his heart just now gradually disappeared, and he just stood in the courtyard motionless.
A beautiful pale face appeared in Li Yan's eyes again. After a long time, Li Yan sighed...
It was a cool night with starlight for half the night. Li Yan sat cross-legged in the yard until dawn!
"Senior Sister Li's Gu wine is really powerful. In just one night, the medicinal power has given me the possibility of breaking through to the early stage of the tenth level of Qi Condensation."
Li Yan did not try to break through, but suppressed the power of the medicine. What he lacked now was the understanding of the realm, and it was impossible for him to blindly seek a breakthrough in the realm.
After these medicinal powers were compressed by him, they were slowly transformed into mana. He needed to carefully experience the artistic conception of the realm in the early stage of the tenth level of Qi Condensation. Finally, the mana was continuously compressed, condensed, and refined as the artistic conception improved...
As the sun rises, Li Yan tidies up the bamboo courtyard and breathes in the dewy morning air, as if the quietness of the morning can take away some of his worries.
Standing in the yard, Li Yan looked up at the dark green bamboo leaves above the yard, and watched the dewdrops between the leaves reflecting the blue sky, as if he was looking at a light ink painting. The ink painting was filled with the fragrance of bamboo leaves and the morning air. Is it a person in the painting, or is there a person in the painting
Just when Li Yan was somewhat absent-minded, white mist surged at the gate of the courtyard. The sect token on Li Yan's waist began to flash red. When he scanned with his spiritual sense, a cold voice came from the token.
"Li Yan, I'm outside your yard."
When Li Yan heard the voice, his heart beat faster unconsciously. He took a deep breath and waved the token in his hand towards the gate. The white mist rolled and parted to both sides, leaving a small path.
As Li Yan was staring, a beautiful figure walked in slowly. She had short hair and wheat-colored skin just like the morning sun. She exuded vitality and youthfulness everywhere.
Gong Chenying's beautiful eyes were also looking up at Li Yan, and they met Li Yan's gaze. Suddenly, there was some panic in her originally cold eyes, and she seemed to be dodging, but she immediately looked at Li Yan.
Li Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. It seemed that this girl was unwilling to admit defeat no matter what. It seemed that she would not give in at all if he just glanced at her.
"Sixth Senior Sister, good morning!"
For a moment, Li Yan didn't know what to say. This was the first time the two of them were alone together since they left the secret realm, a place where danger existed at all times.
Although the two had been alone for some time in the secret realm, they were more concerned about how to survive. Although their relationship was self-evident, they did not think too much about it.
Now that they have returned to the sect and everything has calmed down, they always feel that it is somewhat charming to meet in this quiet environment.
"Well, good morning!"
After hearing what Li Yan said, Gong Chenying lowered her head slightly, hummed softly, and then walked straight to the stone table in the yard without even looking at Li Yan, as if she was worried about something.
Li Yan looked at the graceful figure, and felt a faint fragrance lingering in his nose as she walked. He rubbed his nose, then waved the token in his hand towards the gate. The small courtyard was immediately isolated from the outside world, and then he followed.
Gong Chenying kept her head down until she walked to the stone table. After she sat down, she looked at Li Yan who was sitting opposite her.
She raised her delicate hand lightly as if a breeze was blowing past, and tucked her short hair behind her ears. Her beautiful face appeared even more clearly in front of Li Yan.
Although she was just sitting casually, her proud figure was like a mature peach tree in the yard, making Li Yan feel a little uncomfortable as he looked at her.
Gong Chenying pursed her rosy lips.
"From now on, you can just call me Aying in private."
After saying this, her pretty face was already flushed.
After hearing this, Li Yan didn't know how to answer for a moment!
