Sick Beauty [Rebirth]

Chapter 14: Master (1)

Views:

There is a bitter medicinal fragrance wafting around the medicine house.

The bottom of the bronze medicine furnace on the high platform in the middle of the mountain is burning vigorously, and the blue flame is rising, making a crackling sound.

There was a withered and charred willow tree next to the medicine stove, and a few crows stood on the branches, staring straight at the two people walking behind them.

Yuan Yongzhi felt the bone-chilling chill of Jianfeng leaning against his vest, and cold sweat dripped down his cheeks.

Behind the willow, there is a narrow crevice.

Dim light in the crevices.

Ye Yunlan raised his sword and walked behind Yuan Yongzhi. He caught a glimpse of the dark red blood stains on the rock wall by the roadside, his eyes sank slightly.

This medicine house is full of strangeness.

Did Shen Shu grow up in such an environment

Walking through the crevices for half a moment, the front suddenly opened up.

What is revealed in front of you is a valley in the middle of a mountain.

The setting sun shone down, and in the dim red light, there was a little bloody aura floating in the valley.

A mountain wind blew from nowhere.

It was the warm spring season, but Ye Yunlan felt a little cold.

At this moment, he heard an inhuman roar.

He looked at the place where the sound came from, and saw a row of prison cells built into the rock wall by the mountain, about dozens of cells.

"What's locked in there?" he asked.

Yuan Yongzhi swallowed a mouthful of saliva and answered honestly, "This... This place usually contains living things that have been captured and used to make medicines, such as spirit beasts and monsters. But sometimes, the master will also use it to lock up the wrong disciples in the medicine house. , let them here... face the wall and reflect."

It is normal for a master to teach his disciples.

But it would be inappropriate to lock the disciple in such an unknown place.

This valley in the mountain, according to the five elements of feng shui, is the place where the yin and qi gather in the Qingyun Mountain. Such a place is prone to evil, and for practitioners, it is easy to have evil spirits.

Facing the wall and thinking about things is to make the disciples reflect on their mistakes, not to destroy the way of others.

"Who is your master?" Ye Yunlan asked suddenly.

Xue Zhong had only told him the surname of the head of the medicine house, Liu, but did not tell him the specific name of the deacon.

Yuan Yongzhi wiped his sweat and replied, "My tutor Liu Qing."

Liu Qing.

Ye Yunlan frowned.

It was him.

He still has some impressions of Liu Qing.

It's just that this impression was not left by him when he stayed in Tianzong, but after many years, after he arrived at the Demon Gate, he heard about Liu Qing's deeds.

This person was originally an elder of Xuanhu Peak, the inner gate of Tianzong.

In Tianzong, Xuanhu Peak is also called Medicine Peak, because most of the disciples who practice on Xuanhu Peak are medical practitioners. Liu Qing is a well-known medical practitioner on Yaofeng. The "life-returning pill" he refined has the miraculous effect of regaining one's life and increasing longevity, which is hard to find in the world of practice.

The reason why Liu Qing was banished to the outer door was not known to many people at first. It was only when Liu Qing went into the devil's way, fell into the devil's way, and betrayed the Tianzong, that it was revealed - Liu Qing secretly used a living person to train medicine.

The life-returning pill is made by the living.

Therefore, this medicinal pill is not a holy pill that takes life back, but an evil medicine that exchanges life for life.

After Liu Qing betrayed the Tianzong, he became the guardian of the Demon Sect's Soul Refining Sect. Later, the Soul Refining Sect was destroyed by the Demon Zun, but this man survived. Not only did he survive, but he also became a loyal lackey around the Demon Zun.

Ye Yunlan had met Liu Qing once, and he was shrouded in black robes, never making a sound, and would only faithfully complete the task given by the Demon Venerable.

Liu Qing finally died in the Qianshang Pond.

The soul-eating worm raised by the Demon Venerable devoured his body and soul and died. Terrible death.

The reason was just because he was seriously injured by accident at the time, and the Demon Lord ordered Liu Qing to refine the Life-Returning Pill for him, but he refused.

At that time, the demon said to Liu Qing: "Since Lan'er doesn't want you to make medicine for him, you are useless, go to Qianshang Pond to receive the punishment. It just so happens that the soul eater that this deity has recently raised is still missing. some nourishment."

Then he heard Liu Qing's trembling voice for the first time, the voice was hoarse and mournful: "Your Highness! I have been driven by you for so many years, you can't treat me like this—"

The Demon Venerable waved his sleeves impatiently, and there were guardians walking out and dragging Liu Qing away.

"You said, you have been with me for so many years, but why have you forgotten the rules I set. I said, I don't like hearing your voice." Demon Venerable said coldly, and then ordered the left and right guardians, "Take him Throw it into the Qianshang Pond, and you don't have to fish it out again."

He was seriously injured and was held by the Demon Venerable in his arms. Hearing that, he felt that it was inappropriate. He grabbed the Demon Venerable's sleeve and just wanted to ask for mercy.

However, Mozun raised his hand to pinch his chin, and pressed his fingertips against his pale and bloodless lips. His tone was casual and seemed to contain sullen anger: "Lan'er, don't make me angry anymore."

Mozun has always been known for being cruel and violent, but after he was sent to the Demon Gate, the other party's attitude towards him has always been gentle.

It made him almost forget that this person was originally a temperamental demon who could take life and death.

Even though Liu Qing used a living person to refine medicine, death was a worthy crime, but just because of such a trivial matter, he was thrown into the Qianshang Pond to suffer from the suffering of ten thousand insects and died, Ye Yunlan did not understand.

Although Liu Qing is only a trivial running dog under the Demon Lord's seat, he is just a plaything in the Demon Lord's hands.

Liu Qing's death made him feel a little sad.

Without using the Life-Returning Pill, the injury on his body could no longer be delayed.

The Demon Venerable took him back to the Demon Temple, passed through the heavy curtains, and put him on the bed.

The lights in the hall were dim, the Demon Venerable stared down at him, and the ghost mask looked extremely sinister.

He still couldn't see the other side's face, and couldn't understand the other side's thoughts.

After a long time, Demon Venerable suddenly raised his sleeves and blew out the few candles.

The surroundings became completely dark.

The mask was thrown to the ground with a crisp sound. The Demon Venerable reached into his clothes, put his palm on the wound on his waist, and asked him coldly, "Does it hurt?"

The wound was just a skin injury, and it was slightly scabbed over. His real injury was actually inside his body, but he couldn't help frowning when he was touched like this.

"It doesn't hurt," he said softly.

Mozun was agitated by the tone he didn't care about, he squeezed his hand slightly and sneered: "What about now?"

He shivered a bit, smelled a faint bloody smell, and the Demon Venerable's icy fingertips touched the tender flesh under the scab of his wound.

pain.

He already realized that Demon Venerable's mood was wrong, but he was also angry, so he just tilted his head and said in a more indifferent tone: "...it doesn't hurt."

For a moment, Demon Venerable wanted to smash the man under him.

But in the end, he just slowly withdrew his strength, took a deep breath, and said, "Someone went to the devil's palace yesterday to assassinate, why didn't you call me immediately?"

He said, "The man is already dead."

"I'm asking you, why didn't you call me?" Demon Venerable said.

Just as he was about to answer, he suddenly shivered and felt that the bleeding wound had been licked by something warm and wet.

"I just don't think it's necessary."

The two white jade rings on his ankles that imprisoned spiritual power have long been taken down by Demon Venerable, and his cultivation has recovered a lot. He can still handle the strength of the assassin.

What's more, yesterday was just the night of the full moon.

Every time the night of the full moon, the state of Demon Venerable is very wrong. After the night of the full moon, it will always disappear for a period of time. He thought that the other party probably has no time to deal with these trivial matters.

"Isn't it necessary?" Demon Venerable's lips were stained with blood, hidden in the darkness, his voice was cold and deep, "Oh, the fairy always said that he didn't feel pain... Then when I come to help you heal later, but Just stop crying."

He didn't know how the Demon Venerable wanted to heal him, but he only felt that the other party's weight was pressing down and felt hot.

Demon Venerable's skill at tricking people is superb, and his body has long been so sensitive that he has been soaked in the medicinal bath for many years. In the past, it would soften into a pool of water and let the other party ask for anything, but today is different.

The Demon Venerable felt his resistance was indifferent, and suddenly bit his shoulder, very hard.

The canine teeth rubbed again and again through the fabric, as if to tear him apart and eat him. He said hoarsely, "What are you making a fuss about, eh?"

When he spoke, there were several cold and slippery things tangled up.

He closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "Liu Qing..."

"You really wanted to be angry with me for what happened today." Demon Venerable said solemnly.

He frowned and endured the strange feeling wrapped around his body, "Liu Qing didn't make a big mistake..."

"But you don't know," Demon Venerable said with a sneer, "I let him end his life in the Qianshang Pond, which is actually kindness to him."

He bit his lip, tears welling up from his eyes.

The Demon Venerable's tone suddenly turned gentle, "Are you afraid that I will treat you the same way I did to Liu Qing?" He no longer bit his shoulder, but pursed his lips, like a hungry wolf dog in a vicious manner. hunt.

A faint smell of blood mingled between his lips and teeth.

"But you are completely different."

"Xianchang, I said, as long as you live by me," the Demon Venerable breathed softly in his ear, "I will never do this to you."

He didn't believe it.

On the one hand, the world recognized that Demon Venerable had a perverse temperament and unpredictable joy and anger. On the other hand, since he was sent to the Demon Gate by Chen Weiyuan, his last trust in human nature has been completely lost.

Demon Venerable's action continues.

He thought that the other party was just angry and wanted to play tricks on him, but he didn't expect the Demon Venerable to really start to heal him.

He is the cauldron of the Demon Venerable. A top-level furnace that has been softened by years of medicinal baths. Everyone in the Demon Sect regarded him as a demon, and everyone in the Immortal Sect regarded him as a traitor and scum. He has a disreputable reputation, and his status is extremely humble.

He always thought that the Demon Venerable loved him and cherished him because his body still had a little value left.

But now, Demon Venerable injected his cultivation base and spiritual power into his body to heal his physical injuries.

But in this case, Demon Venerable has become his furnace.

He didn't expect that Demon Venerable would use such a method to heal him.

He was hurt so much by Demon Venerable, he frowned, and the tears couldn't stop flowing. The injury in the body is improving.

"You said you're not afraid of pain. But Xianchang, you have to remember," Mozun hugged him, kissed the tears from the corners of his eyes, and whispered in his ear, "Only I can love you in this world."

"No one can go around me and touch you - unless they step on my body."

He had long since disbelieved the promises of the world, and he did not take Mozun's words to heart at that time.

... But Mozun really did what he said.

He always remembered that even at the time when there was no way out and there was no hope of survival, this person... was still protecting him.

Ye Yunlan stopped.

"Your master Liu Qing, where is he now?" he asked Yuan Yongzhi.

Yuan Yongzhi's forehead was oozing with cold sweat again. He thought about the reason why Ye Yunlan asked this question, and said vaguely: "Master... Master, his old man made a small mistake while retreating, and he is recovering from his injuries."

Ye Yunlan already had a guess in his heart, the tip of the sword pressed against Yuan Yongzhi's vest, "Tell me the truth."

"You can't touch me!" Yuan Yongzhi suddenly raised his voice, "My master used to be the elder of the inner sect Yaofeng, and many elders of other peaks rely on the medicinal pills refined by my master, if you hurt me, even if you are an inner sect Sect disciples will also be severely punished!"

Ye Yunlan ignored the threat in his words and only said: "Liu Qing is not recovering."

In the previous life, Liu Qing betrayed Tianzong, think about it carefully, that is, what happened in the past few years

Contacting Yuan Yongzhi's veiled attitude, Ye Yunlan suddenly turned to look at the room that made the strange noise, and said lightly, "He's gone crazy. Is it him who is imprisoned here?"

"How would you know?" Yuan Yongzhi was shocked, "Only the disciples of Yaolu know about the master's madness... Yes, did Shen Shu's evil beast tell you?"

Hearing the word "evil animal", Ye Yunlan's eyes sank slightly.

"I told you to take care of your mouth, don't be rude and bark everywhere." Thinking of the purpose of his trip, he temporarily forgot about Liu Qing and sent the long sword forward, "Tell me, Shen Shu Where are you being held?"

A tingling pain came from the vest, which shocked Yuan Yong.

The rich black energy floated in his eyes.

He slowly rolled his eyes and said, "Senior brother, it's not because of my indiscretion. Brother, I'm afraid I don't know, that evil... Shen Shu's body is stained with evil and unknown things, which will affect the cultivator's luck. In the past few years, medicine has Disciple Lu suffered many misfortunes because of what he did. He was imprisoned here and punished against the wall, and he deserved it."

A ball slipped down from his sleeve and was pinched in his palm, "So senior brother, I would like to advise you, to Shen Shu, it's better to stay away... Otherwise, senior brother may not even be able to die in the future. knowledge."

Yuan Yongzhi thought, he said so, Ye Yunlan should be hesitant. After all, the most taboo thing for cultivators is that their luck is affected. I didn't expect that the other party's voice was cold and said, "Are you teaching me to do things?"

Yuan Yongyi choked, and suddenly heard a sound of broken porcelain in the distance, and then saw Ye Yunlan pass him, walked quickly to the end of the rock wall, and stepped into a cell.

It was the cell where Shen Shu was imprisoned.

Yuan Yongzhi suddenly heard the sound of the long swords colliding, and his heart burst, and he followed, and found that the door of the cell was wide open.

The setting sun had already entered the western mountain, and in the dim light, the scene inside surprised him.

The ground was full of fragments of medicine bowls, and his junior brother Xu Ze lay on the ground, unaware of personnel matters.

But in Ye Yunlan's arms, he was holding the beast.

The beast was covered in blood, his clothes were tattered by the whip, his thin wrists were hung with chains, and he was resting on Ye Yunlan's shoulders, his long hair was hanging down, and his pale cheeks were exposed.

It looked a little pitiful.

When Ye Yunlan first came in, he saw Shen Shu curled up in the corner of the wall in the dark, and a disciple was about to strike Shen Shu with his sword.

He didn't think too much, and then he used his sword to save Shen Shu.

Seeing him coming, Shen Shu stood up staggeringly, fell into his arms, clutched the placket of his shirt, his body trembled a little, and whispered to him: "Xianjun."

Like some frightened animal.

Blood soaked his white clothes, he hugged the bruised boy in his arms, his heart ached slightly, and said, "Tell me, what happened? Who did the injuries on your body?"

The person he saved with his life was injured like this again, but he didn't put it in front of his eyes for a while.

Shen Shu said hoarsely: "It was Senior Brother Yuan who locked me here, beat me with a whip, and said that he was punishing me for going out without permission... Senior Brother Xu asked me to drink medicine, but if I refused, he would kill me."

Ye Yunlan heard this, suddenly turned to look at Yuan Yongzhi, and said coldly, "That's what you said, Shen Shu is just being punished in the face of the wall? Isn't it because you privately used torture to murder your fellow students?"

Murdering a colleague is a major crime in Tianzong.

Yuan Yongzhi didn't believe it, and subconsciously said: "Impossible! I used the whip to teach him that it was true, but Junior Brother Xu has been waiting for this beast to test the medicine for several days. It is a chain made of black iron, even if it is slashed with a sword, it will not be broken in a short time—"

"Testing the medicine?" Ye Yunlan caught a word in his words, and Shen Lie's eyes were even more worried, "You... forcing Shen Shu to test the medicine?"

Using a living person to test medicine, just like refining medicine with a living person, is taboo in the Taoist sect.

Liu Qing had committed similar things but was only banished to the outer door, because the "Fate-returning Pill" he cultivated had something to do with many elders in the sect. If it was Yuan Yongzhi, he would not be so lucky.

Yuan Yongzhi's expression changed.

He managed to sit in the position of the head of the Yaolu, and his butt was still hot, so outsiders must not know about this!

He saw Shen Shu raised his head from Ye Yunlan's shoulder and looked at him again, his eyes were treacherous and sinister, and there was a hint of sarcasm.

"The chains on my body... were cut off by Senior Brother Xu," his voice was still weak, "Senior Xu said, it's too cheap to just kill me, or it's more fun to play cats and mice..."

How could Xu Ze say such a thing!

Yuan Yongzhi suddenly realized that the pitiful appearance of this beast was all fake, but it was just to frame the blame!

His heart was on fire.

This beast, obviously already under his control, dares to play this trick with him!

The cat plays with the mouse, who is the cat and who is the mouse

Yuan Yongzhi looked at Xu Ze who was lying on the ground, his face sank completely, and his manic emotions surged in his heart, making him almost lose his ability to judge.

He thought, since the trial of medicine by living people has been exposed, there is no need to hide the matter of Shen Shu, as long as Ye Yunlanlan can be kept here forever - then no one will know what happened in the medicine house. matter!

Yuan Yongzhi's eyes were full of black energy, he no longer hesitated, and poured the spiritual energy of his whole body into the ball in his hand.

Ye Yunlan noticed that the boy's body suddenly became stiff, and then trembled slightly.

Shen Shu said hoarsely: "Xianjun... go..."

As he said that, he reached out and pushed him away, staggered back, and shrank into the dark corner alone.

A gust of mountain wind blew past, chilling to the bone.

This is an extremely yin place in the mountains. At this time, the surrounding yin is madly gathering towards this house. Not only the yin qi, but also the ghost qi and evil qi left by the souls who died in this valley began to spread here.

The bright moon in the sky has been covered with dark clouds, Yuan Yongzhi's face is full of madness.

"Yes, that's it... Shen Shu, master has raised you for so long, and now it's your turn to serve our master."

"What did you do to him?" Ye Yunlan raised his sword and pointed at Yuan Yongzhi.

The meaning of endless death and annihilation spread, Yuan Yongzhi was drenched in cold sweat, and could not help clenching the green ball in his hand, shouting: "Take him for me!"

An attack suddenly came from the side, Ye Yunlan sideways dodged the blow, his sleeves flew, and he saw Shen Shu's face.

Those eyes had lost all lustre, empty and cold, and in their hands was the long sword that Xu Ze had dropped on the ground.

Shen Shu's state was obviously abnormal.

Ye Yunlan was able to perceive living things around him, but Shen Shu at this time was completely different from usual in his perception.

If you really want to say... At this moment, Shen Shu doesn't look like a living person at all.

Ye Yunlan is observing.

In the dark environment, his eyesight was lacking, but Shen Shu's breath was like a ghost. The long sword came with a ghostly aura, and the speed was extremely fast.

Ye Yunlan dodged a sword sideways, and a few black hairs slowly fell in the air.

He frowned slightly, trying to focus on watching, but his vision became even more blurred.

He didn't want to hurt the other party, and when he shot, he was a little restrained, and he had no cultivation, and gradually became a little tired of parrying.

Yuan Yongzhi was overjoyed when he saw it.

Logically speaking, Shen Shu's strength should be more than that after the secret technique is activated, but Yuan Yongzhi was so excited that he couldn't think at all - the pleasure of holding a powerful evil in his hands was so great, and what excited him even more was the fact that After taking down the person in front of him, how would he ravage and manipulate the other person's reverie

Fear makes desire grow even more violently.

When this man just put the sword on his neck, did he ever think that the person he tried so hard to see would take him down and send it to his hand

Yuan Yongzhi only felt that the spiritual energy around his body was flowing rapidly and excitedly, full of swelling in the meridians, making his body light and fluttering, his heart beating rapidly, and even echoing in his ears.

Countless colorful and treacherous illusions appeared in his mind. He seemed to have climbed to the clouds, and everything he had fantasized about was at his fingertips.

But suddenly, in the dark space, a dim sword light flashed across, Shen Shu's long sword was picked up, and it fell to the ground with a "clang".

And he fell to the ground, motionless.

The change came so quickly, Yuan Yongzhi's fantasy seemed to be pierced by this sword light, and he returned to reality, feeling an unbearable emptiness.

The swollen spiritual power scurried wildly in the meridians, the feeling of lightness disappeared, replaced by the pain of the meridian rupture.

Reiki retrograde, go crazy.

Yuan Yongzhi's eyes widened in horror, but he couldn't control the blood gushing out of his mouth.

He couldn't figure out why he suddenly went into trouble.

What is even more incomprehensible is why Shen Shu suddenly fell down—the secret technique was activated, and the filthy aura accumulated in Yaolu for many years had been absorbed by Shen Shu. To dissolve the filthy aura on Shen Shu's body, no one can hurt him.

Ye Yunlan didn't take care of Yuan Yongzhi, but quickly stepped forward to check on Shen Shu's condition.

With the sword just now, he just threw Shen Shu's sword into the air and did not hurt Shen Shu.

Shen Shu fell by himself.

In the dim light, he saw a large bloodstain under Shen Shu fainted.

When he hugged Shen Shu just now, he only saw that the other party's clothes were covered with blood. Now, looking closely, he found that there was a wound on Shen Shu's abdomen that was pierced by a long sword, and thick blood was gushing out of the wound. .

Was it hurt by that disciple just now

Ye Yunlan frowned, not thinking about whether Shen Shu would attack again, but just helped him up.

Such wounds must be bandaged immediately, otherwise Shen Shu will lose too much blood and his life will be at risk.

He untied Shen Shu's clothes and tore a piece of cloth to bandage the wound on his abdomen.

The boy's body was pale and thin, with many welts and old wounds on his body. Ye Yunlan looked at it, frowning more and more tightly.

He let Shen Shu lean on his shoulder, wrap his hands behind the other side, and tie a knot with the clothes that were dressing the wound. Turning his face to the side, he saw that Shen Shu's long hair fell to his cheeks, and the back of his pale and slender neck revealed a strange mark.

Ye Yunlan saw the mark clearly, and his eyes were slightly cold.

At the same time, there was a sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

It was Yuan Yongzhi who fell to the ground.

A faint green ball rolled out of his hand and rolled all the way to Ye Yunlan's feet.

Ye Yunlan picked up the ball.

With a cold hand, Ye Yunlan had already recognized that this thing was a Soul Refining Orb before he could penetrate his spiritual power into it.

And the puppet seal he saw just now, Shen Shu's identity is already self-evident.

Shen Shu is a magic puppet that was trained by the method of human sacrifice.

Refining the golem is an evil magic technique in the magic door. It uses the treasures of heaven and earth to shape the puppet human form, and then engraves the forbidden magic technique to create a weapon to help the master fight.

However, the magic puppets refined in this way have no spirituality and can only be regarded as artifacts, and their strength is limited by the level of heaven and earth treasures, generally not too high, and the things they can do are very limited.

Thousands of years ago, the Soul Refining Sect invented the technique of refining living people.

This technique is not secret, the outside world only knows that one of the steps of this technique is to torture the living people with extremely high talent for a hundred days in pain and despair, endure endless resentment and die, and then impose a forbidden technique to destroy the three souls. The seven soul locks are refined in the corpse.

The magic puppet refined in this way has spirituality. As long as it can absorb enough filthy aura, it can increase its strength indefinitely, until the upper limit of the magic puppet itself can be carried, but it will not have the same shackles as people.

The golems made from living people are divided into three categories: heaven, earth and human.

The stronger the aptitude of the living human being chosen, and the more resentment it carries during refining, the higher the rank of the golem.

It is the lowest human-level puppet, and the cultivation base can reach the god-transforming stage that can be called a powerful one.

Golems are not living creatures, they are immortal and immortal, and they will completely obey their master's orders. Therefore, magic puppets were once an extremely sought-after tool in the Demon Sect, and every magic puppet shot by Soul Refining Sect could fetch sky-high prices.

It's just that the probability of successful refining of a magic puppet is also frighteningly low, and sometimes among tens of thousands of people, not even one can be refined.

In the previous life, since the Soul Refinement Sect was destroyed by the Demon Venerable, this refining method was lost forever.

"Give my stuff back to me..."

Yuan Yongzhi, who fell to the ground, suddenly struggled to speak, his face twisted and hideous.

Ye Yunlan said coldly, "Does anyone in the sect know that you colluded with the demon sect privately to make magic puppets?"

Yuan Yongzhi was suddenly startled, and his head was slightly sober.

Golems are the most outstanding weapons in the world, but they are the stuff of demons after all.

It is a taboo for people in the immortal way to come into contact with the demons. If he is discovered, it will not be as simple as being expelled from the sect.

Yuan Yongzhi's expression changed, and he suddenly changed his words: "These things are all done by Liu Qing, the old guy, and have nothing to do with our Yaolu disciples... My two senior brothers were arrested because of Liu Qing's discovery of this matter. Murder and silence, Senior Brother, I really didn't lie to you this time!"

"You said you didn't know anything about it?"

The method of refining the living is unique to the Soul Refinement Sect.

Although Liu Qing will betray the sect and join the Soul Refining Sect in the future, but now he is still a member of the Tian Sect, and it is impossible to know how the Soul Refining Sect refines the puppet, unless he was originally an undercover agent sent by the Soul Refining Sect.

If so, Momen's hands are too long.

At this moment, Ye Yunlan heard a shrill roar from the outside world again.

Liu Qing's infatuation will never be pretentious.

The blood from Shen Shu's wound seeped out from the bandaged clothes, and Ye Yunlan didn't want to think about these trivial matters.

He took out the sound transmission Lingyu He Lanze gave him, briefly explained the matter here, and said lightly: "I have notified the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall to come, if there is anything that needs to be explained, you can go and tell the people in the Law Enforcement Hall. Bar."

Yuan Yongzhi said in horror, "No!"

Ye Yunlan stopped listening and only looked at the bright red blood on Shen Shu's wound.

Golems refined through the refining method of living people, the blood will turn black completely, lose body temperature and heartbeat, and are not considered living people.

Shen Shu's blood was bright red, and it should be only a semi-finished product.

His refining process is not perfect, which means that he is still a person.

He gently wiped the blood from Shen Shu's cheek with the pulp of his finger, and his spiritual sense penetrated into the ball.

Inside the ball is a pitch-black space, the space is full of interlaced chains, and a small figure is wrapped around the most central chain.

It's Shen Shu.

Shen Shu looks much younger than he is now.

This should be the part of Shen Shu's soul that was forcibly extracted by the refiner before the method of refining the living person began.

The spirit looked only six or seven years old, with a pale face and empty and numb eyes, like a lifeless puppet.

If possible, Ye Yunlan would like to destroy the Soul Refining Orb and lift the ban.

Just doing this would destroy the Soul Refining Orb and this part of Shen Shu's divine soul together.

The method of refining living people is so sinister, even if the refining has not been completed, Shen Shu's life will be connected to this soul refining pearl, which means that he will not be able to escape the control of others in this life.

He held the Soul Refinement Orb in his palm, and slowly rubbed his fingertips on it.

He is thinking.

Suddenly, the unconscious boy in his arms moved.

He looked down and saw Shen Shu's eyelashes trembling, and slowly opened his eyes.

The moment he saw Ye Yunlan, a light appeared in Shen Shu's eyes, but immediately, he noticed the green orb in Ye Yunlan's hand, his dark pupils shrank, he instinctively reached out to grab the bead, but Ye Yunlan avoided it. open.

Shen Shu's eyes darkened, he suddenly tilted his head and asked, "Xianjun... do you even want to use me?"

use.

The use of the word Shen Shu is very natural, but Ye Yunlan frowned subconsciously, reached out and touched Shen Shu's head, and explained softly: "Your divine soul is connected to the soul refining bead, if you destroy it, you will be severely injured, even die."

Shen Shu tilted his head to look at him, "Is that really the case?"

The young man's tone was very light, and he didn't seem to believe that much, but he really stopped trying to snatch the ball, just raised his head and rubbed his hand, a slight smile appeared on his pale face, and said hoarsely: "Xianjun again Saved me once... I'm so happy."

Looking at him like this, Ye Yunlan didn't know why, but suddenly remembered the first time he met the other party, and the other party stubbornly asked how he could repay him.

- Xianjun, tell me, what do you want

-what can you give me

-all. I can give Xianjun everything.

- Including your life

- including my life.

The Soul Refining Orb in his hand suddenly became very heavy.

Shen Shu's injury should not move violently, and it will take time for the people from the Law Enforcement Hall to come. Ye Yunlan was afraid that Shen Shu would faint again, so he was silent for a while, and said, "Shen Shu, tell me about your past."

"What happened to me before...?"

"What happened before you met me. Tell me about your former relatives and friends."

However, Shen Shu said: "I... have no relatives or friends. Before... Maybe there was, but I have forgotten all about it. I only remember that night many years ago... There was a lot of blood, blood in the sky, and everyone died. "

Ye Yunlan didn't ask him what night it was, just listened quietly.

"I was taken to the mountains, where... there were many people my age. We were kept in a big wooden shed, and every so often... someone was taken away."

"The people who were taken away... have not returned."

"One day, they took me to a cave, and the cave... was full of bones and poisonous snakes. They broke my limbs, dug up my abdominal cavity, put beads... in it, and let those snakes crawl on me." As Shen Shu said that, he suddenly grabbed the front of his shirt, "It hurts so much, Xianjun."

Ye Yunlan hugged him and said softly, "It doesn't hurt anymore, it's all over."

Shen Shu snuggled up in Ye Yunlan's arms, sniffed the gentle and gentle fragrance of this man, and made a low "um".

He paused for a while, and a gloomy color flashed across his eyes before continuing: "It was Liu Qing... who saved me. He secretly took me and the ball out of the cave."

"In the beginning... I was very grateful, but later, I found out that he didn't treat me as a human being, but only regarded me as a... beast raised by him."

"He took me back to Tianzong. At first... he was afraid that I would hurt people, so he tied me with a chain. Later, I learned to pretend to be very good, and he let me go."

Ye Yunlan listened to Shen Shu's story quietly, and gently stroked Shen Shu's back with gentle strength.

"For so many years, everyone in the Yaolu has treated me as a beast, only Xianjun..." Shen Shu rubbed his cheek against him, "...Only Xianjun is willing to treat me as a human. So... I want to stay in Next to Xianjun."

Ye Yunlan's long eyelashes trembled slightly.

"I haven't been able to pick Jinling Flowers for Xianjun, Xianjun... Can you give me a reward in advance?" Shen Shu said in a low voice, "Take me back, okay?"

Ye Yunlan was silent for a while, and understood what Shen Shu meant.

Shen Shu wanted him to take him back with him, and then... stay by his side for a long time.

The young man's request was so straightforward that his body was covered in bruises, but he still remembered the flower that he promised to fold for him.

It's just that from the past life to the present, he has lived alone for decades.

I have long forgotten what it feels like to have someone by my side.

There is no company in this world is constant, everyone will eventually leave.

He once told Shen Shu this way, and at the same time he always told himself this way.

He had decided to live alone in this life peacefully.

only.

He embraced Shen Shu and saw the mottled old wounds and bloodstains on the boy's body.

A few strands of the other's soft hair rubbed against his neck, itching slightly.

Shen Shu was lonely as a child, and all his family members lost.

The disciples of Yaolu treated him like a tool and treated him like an animal. Although they had fellow students, they had no friends. Even because they hadn’t spoken for a long time, they always stumbled when communicating with him.

He should have died in the fire in the secret realm, but he was saved by him.

Shen Shu lived because of him.

And even though he suffered, he was still clean and pure, and he always remembered to repay him.

Even the Soul Refining Orb, which can control the life of his own soul, was handed over to him.

Ye Yunlan did not intend to leave any fetters and worries in the world.

But if it is Shen Shu.

If it's just Shen Shu...

He closed his eyes and took out the blood-stained Jin Linghua from his arms.

"I have received the Jinling flower you picked for me."

Shen Shu's eyes widened slightly.

"I said I would give you a reward." Ye Yunlan lowered her head and looked at Shen Shuchun's bright black eyes, which reflected his shadow.

The other party was so wholeheartedly, looking up at him expectantly.

He thought he should respond to this expectation.

So he continued: "... The reward is that after you are healed, I will accept you as a disciple."

The people from the Law Enforcement Hall arrived quickly.

He Lanze led dozens of disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall to open the door of the medicine house, and then went straight to the valley in the mountain according to the direction pointed by Ye Yunlan.

His face was extremely cold, and he was full of worries and suppressed his heart, but when he saw the blood on Ye Yunlan's body,
