When Chu Qi finished speaking, the people around him were all stunned.
No one has ever thought about the pain of a powerful monk being injured. People only see their superficial strength, and they are in awe or respect, but rarely care about them.
The law enforcer of the Yan family lowered his head in shame. Even though he was a member of the Yan family, in that situation just now, he was not the first to notice the injuries on the young master's body. Instead, it was the medical practitioner who noticed it.
Uncle Lin glanced at Yan Jiuge with a complicated expression and said no more.
Chu Qi turned around, "Ah... uh, what do you think, fellow Daoist?"
Chu Qi changed the name he blurted out in the middle of his words, as he was actually undecided in his heart.
"Okay." Yan Jiuge said.
He turned his face to the side and spoke softly, losing all the sharpness from before and leaving a gentle tone at the end.
Chu Qi had the illusion that they were back to being as close as in reality.
No matter what, the most important thing is to heal the wound on Yan Jiuge's shoulder. After regaining his composure, Chu Qi turned his attention back to Yan Jiuge's shoulder.
Thanks to his powerful recovery ability, the wound on Yan Jiuge's shoulder has healed and no longer bleeds, but there is still a black evil spirit lingering on his skin.
Chu Qi was no stranger to dealing with this kind of evil spirit.
However, this time, Chu Qi discovered that the aura of his spiritual power in the illusion was light gold, which was somewhat different from the aura of the spiritual power of ordinary medical practitioners.
Do not you know why.
While Chu Qi was thinking, he unknowingly probed his spiritual power into Yan Jiuge's body.
Chu Qi's behavior was completely out of habit, and he did it subconsciously. However, the person in front of him was very stiff!
If it were someone else, Yan Jiuge would probably pick up the magic sword and strike him dead in the throat.
Can a cultivator's vital point be explored at will
But the person in front of me is Chu Qi...
A vague thought flashed through Yan Jiuge's mind quickly, and the words of the person in front of him when introducing himself seemed to still be in his ears.
What's so special about Chu Qi
Just thinking about this, Yan Jiuge's chest was filled with a strange and warm emotion, which made him suddenly overwhelmed and his body stiff.
The wound on the shoulder was healing, the healing art was working. What was more difficult to ignore than the wound was actually the warmth brought by the healing art.
It was like a spring breeze in March, causing something to sprout in Yan Jiuge's heart.
He can endure the pain of having his flesh torn apart.
But he will become confused because of a healing spell.
"alright."
A gentle voice sounded in Yan Jiuge's ears, causing him to suddenly come back to his senses and take a step back.
The distance between the two people increased from two feet to three feet.
But that strange feeling still could not fade away from Yan Jiuge's heart.
Under Chu Qi's slightly inquiring gaze, Yan Jiuge whispered, "Thank you."
"You're welcome, fellow Daoist." Chu Qi said.
Yan Jiuge: “…”
This title sounds a bit too distant.
—He seemed to have not told Chu Qi about his name yet.
After coming back to his senses, Yan Jiuge spoke subconsciously, "My last name is Yan, and my name is Jiuge."
"I know you are... a fellow Taoist from the Yan family." Chu Qi concealed his words and pretended to react as if he saw Yan Jiuge for the first time.
“…” Not a fellow Taoist from the Yan family.
Yan Jiuge found that the polite address coming out of Chu Qi's mouth made him inexplicably dissatisfied.
But this dissatisfaction had no reason, so he could only keep it in his heart.
At this time, the Yan family law enforcer stepped forward cautiously, bowed to Yan Jiuge and said, "Sir, should we ask for help from our family next, or continue to go deeper into the mountains?"
While Yan Jiuge was treating Chu Qi, the Yan family law enforcer had already put the monster's body into the Qiankun bag and had carefully completed the follow-up work.
"..." After hearing the subordinate's question, Yan Jiuge fell into deep thought.
He came here to investigate the traces of evil spirits. According to the information from the Yan family, the evil spirits had polluted many monsters with their evil spirits, causing a lot of abnormal dead air to appear in this mountain range, damaging the spirit of heaven and earth.
The evil spirits originated from the ancient war, and now only a very small number remain in the Yunyin Realm, but this small group of evil spirits can still cause great trouble.
The Yan family is in charge of the precepts and is responsible for cleaning up those living beings that have been polluted by evil spirits.
"Are you going deep into the mountains too?" Chu Qi suddenly asked.
"Also?" Yan Jiuge noticed the key word.
"Well, we were originally planning to go to the mountains to collect herbs." Chu Qi nodded, and continued to make up stories based on the words of the maid who was standing beside the carriage. "If Daoist Fellow Yan doesn't mind, we can go together."
Going together
And Chu Qi
When Yan Jiuge nodded, the Yan family law enforcer standing beside him almost popped his eyes out and reminded him stutteringly, "Sir... Sir, we, but we..."
The Yan family is clearing out evil spirits, and with outsiders present, it's easy for trouble to arise!
Once the evil spirits contaminate others, they must not only kill the evil spirits, but also kill the contaminated monks.
Chu Qi took over the words of the Yan family law enforcer and continued, "You also have to go deep into the mountains, and traveling with a medical practitioner will provide an extra layer of protection."
Amid the incredulous expressions of the Yan family's law enforcers, Yan Jiuge said "hmm" and made a decision.
"You go and notify our family to send more people first, and then we will go into the mountains with this Taoist friend's people. The sooner we finish it, the better. Don't delay the important business."
This is said to the subordinates.
"What kind of spiritual medicine are you looking for in the mountains? If it's convenient for me, I can help you pick it back."
This was said to Chu Qi.
Chu Qi: “…”
In fact, he didn't know what elixir to look for.
Hearing Yan Jiuge use the word "you", Uncle Lin took the initiative to answer, "We need to find the ten thousand year old blood ganoderma. I heard it is about to mature, and our master wants to use it to refine spiritual medicine."
Fearing that Yan Jiuge was an outsider to medicine, Uncle Lin continued to add, "The ten thousand year old blood ganoderma usually grows on rugged cliffs. It is bright red and translucent. There are many ferocious spirit beasts around that follow the scent of spiritual energy and wait for the ten thousand year old blood ganoderma to mature."
Yan Jiuge: "I understand."
In fact, not all the Yan family members were unreasonable. The man in front of them was willing to find spiritual medicine for their young master, proving that the young master's healing spiritual skills were not wasted.
*
The two groups of people walked together, slowly advancing towards the depths of the mountains. Compared to the large battle on Chu Qi's side, there were only two people on the Yan family's side.
One is Yan Jiuge, and the other is a law enforcement subordinate who is responsible for blocking the road and preventing others from disturbing Yan Jiuge from clearing out the evil spirits.
Chu Qi originally wanted to invite Yan Jiuge to ride in the carriage together, but then he thought, "Today is just the first time they met each other," and being overly enthusiastic would arouse suspicion.
As a second choice, Chu Qi got off the carriage and planned to walk.
Uncle Lin wanted to say something, but when he saw Chu Qi walking towards Yan Jiuge, he suddenly couldn't utter any words of persuasion.
Young Master of the Valley has grown up now, and I cannot interfere too much with his thoughts and decisions. Otherwise, I cannot be considered a qualified loyal servant.
Over there, Chu Qi had already thought of an excuse to chat with Yan Jiuge.
"Friend Daoist Yan, what are you planning to look for in the mountains?" Chu Qi asked him.
"Find something that breaks the laws of heaven and earth." Yan Jiuge replied.
"…breaking the laws of heaven and earth?"
This was the first time Chu Qi had heard such a description. What was the Heaven and Earth Discipline? Was it a kind of law
"Well, stay away from him when the time comes, and don't get close to him casually." Yan Jiuge was reminding him, and then he remembered that Chu Qi had come directly when he was killing the monster just now, which was an extremely dangerous thing.
The reason why Yan Jiuge traveled with Chu Qi and others was that he thought he could help Chu Qi find some herbs.
As for the matter of eliminating evil spirits, Yan Jiuge did not intend to let Chu Qi participate.
"It's very dangerous for you to go alone." Chu Qi disagreed.
"Ordinary cultivators will be in danger when facing evil spirits." The Yan family is different. The precepts and seals on their bodies can resist the pollution of evil spirits.
Zi Su and the Yan family law enforcers stood five feet away and followed.
Without a soundproof barrier to isolate their conversation, Zi Su could naturally hear Yan Jiuge's words, and immediately retorted in dissatisfaction, "Our master is not an ordinary cultivator."
"Our masters are far more powerful than you can imagine!" The Yan family law enforcer beside her added unwillingly.
"Our master is the most powerful."
"I am the master."
"… "
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Chu Qi coughed and said helplessly, "Stop quarreling. Every profession has its own specialties. Medical practitioners and sword practitioners each have their own advantages."
"Fifteen." Yan Jiuge glanced at the Yan family law enforcer.
Suddenly, the Yan family's law enforcer lost his aura, became humble, and carefully apologized, "It was my fault for speaking out of turn. Please punish me, sir."
Yan Jiuge: "This won't happen again."
Chu Qi turned his head. He had heard from Yan Jiuge that the Yan family's guards were named after code names, and the Yan family law enforcer in front of him was also one of the four guards going to Qiu City.
None of the Yan family members escaped from the illusion. Could this be an illusion involving multiple people
The person who set up the illusion was targeting Yan Jiuge, so why did he go to so much trouble to create an illusion with multiple people
Chu Qi suppressed his curiosity and continued to ask Yan Jiuge for information. "I just saw a black evil spirit on the wound. If you were injured accidentally and there is no doctor by your side, how can you get rid of it?"
"Evil spirit?" Yan Jiuge raised his hand and pressed it on his shoulder. There was no sign of evil spirit invading deeply, so he relaxed. "There are special healing talismans. It can be removed by sticking them on. It's not a big problem."
"… So this is ah."
What kind of talisman could have such an effect
In reality, Chu Qi had never seen Yan Jiuge use it.
While Chu Qi was thinking, Yan Jiuge took out two talismans from his Qiankun bag and handed them to him, "Take them. If you are accidentally contaminated by those evil spirits, stick them on and you will be fine."
Chu Qi took it, unfolded the talisman, and looked at it carefully. For some reason, he could sense a very familiar feeling from these two talismans.
But Chu Qi couldn't tell exactly where he was familiar with.
"..." Fifteen's mouth moved, but no sound came out, but his eyes were somewhat anxious. They didn't bring many talismans with them this time, and now they had to draw two to give to outsiders, so the dangers faced by his young master would increase again.
But the young master's decision cannot be changed by him, a subordinate.
I hope support from our family can arrive soon.
Fifteen quietly calmed himself down. But suddenly he heard the maid standing beside him say in surprise, "Isn't this the talisman drawn by our master..."
"What?!" Fifteen exclaimed. He didn't care about his expression and asked Zi Su anxiously, "What did you just say?"
"I said… "
"Perilla!" Uncle Lin's voice was a little heavy, mixed with a bit of seriousness and warning.
Zi Su suddenly didn't dare to speak.
She has always been outspoken and she almost forgot that the young valley master's training trip had to be kept secret from the outside world.
Chu Qi was also surprised by Zi Su's words, but Uncle Lin looked very bad. He didn't know why, so he just spoke to cover up for Zi Su, "The healing talismans are all the same. She doesn't understand them very well, so she will naturally make a mistake."
Uncle Lin's expression eased a little, but his brows were still furrowed.
Every heir of Yaowang Valley must be trained with great care, and unless necessary, the heir's appearance must not be known to others.
In fact, evil things are most closely related to Yaowang Valley.
The only ones who knew Chu Qi's identity were Uncle Lin, the Valley Master and his wife, and the Patriarch of the Yan Family.
On the surface, Medicine King Valley is a medical force in the Hidden Cloud Realm. The sacred tree is hidden and no longer known to outsiders. After the ancient war, Medicine King Valley suffered heavy damage. The evil spirits have strange means. They can change their appearance to create an identical body, making it look real. They can even use their appearance to cast spells and kill monks.
[This fight has lasted for ten thousand years. We can no longer afford to waste time, so we can only take the initiative to set up a trap. Any cultivator in the Hidden Cloud Realm can have an accident, except the heir of Medicine King Valley. He is the hope of all of us, so you must protect him.]
Uncle Lin took a deep breath, thinking of what the Valley Master had said, and his eyes became solemn.
"Master, there is a Smoke City next to this mountain range. After we find the Ten Thousand Year Blood Ganoderma, shall we go to the Smoke City to rest?"
Does Uncle Lin mean that he doesn't plan to continue traveling with the Yan family
Chu Qi put away the talisman in his hand and did not refute it. He only gave an ambiguous answer, "Let's wait and see after we find the ten thousand year old blood ganoderma."
Now he is in a fantasy world. What if he brought Yan Jiuge's consciousness back to reality before going to Yancheng
This is what Chu Qi thought.
