It turned out to be evil and maddened

...

In the hall of dipping feathers.

Because the place where she woke up was not the bench she had been on, Xue Xian climbed out of the bed in a panic, and when she walked quickly to the bench, the door of the temple was also opened.

Li Qingyu walked in from the outside, and glanced at him with his long eyes.

Xue Xian was so nervous that he was a little at a loss, he spoke incoherently and with a guilty conscience: "You...you weren't in the hall this morning?"

Li Qingyu looked back at him when he heard the words, and said after a while, "Yes."

Xue Xian breathed a sigh of relief, only feeling that he had escaped a catastrophe, and hurriedly said: "I accidentally went to bed late today, can I directly refine the medicine in the Baptist Feather Hall?"

Li Qingyu nodded lightly, then walked to the low couch and sat cross-legged with her eyes closed.

Seeing that the other party seemed to be condensed again, Xuexian quickly shook his head, trying to get rid of the messy thoughts in his mind, and planned to try the new medicine refining method that he saw in the medical book yesterday.

The golden three-legged tripod sensed the master's call, and immediately appeared, shining golden light and floating in the air.

Xue Xian stretched his arms straight, poured spiritual fire into the medicine furnace with his palms, the small furnace body in front of him trembled violently, gradually shone with dazzling light, and began to emit golden mist.

Xue Xian couldn't help showing joy in his eyes.In the past few years, he has mastered many medicine refining methods, but after that, he still has to refine Li Qingyu's medicine stick, no matter what, he has to continue to improve his medical practice.

He didn't dare to take it lightly, and raised his arms to continuously strengthen the intensity of the spiritual fire, and the thin sweat on his back became more and more secreted. Because he was too focused, he didn't even notice that the hair was flying around his ears.

But within an instant of incense, the trembling small medicine stove suddenly shook more violently, the golden light emitted from the stove faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the fog suddenly turned from gold to black.

Finally there was a bang.

It exploded on the spot.

The moment the ashes hit his face, Xuexian took a deep breath.

"Cough! Cough-cough-cough!"

Mouth full of ashes.

On the low couch in the study room, Li Qingyu stared in this direction, glanced at the medicine stove in mid-air, and said in a low voice, "Failed again?"

Xue Xian didn't know when the other party opened his eyes, so he stood up silently, wiped his fingers across his cheeks, barely restrained the astonishment of being seen, straightened his back, and said, "Again? Did you ever watch me concoct alchemy?"

Li Qingyu raised his eyebrows.

Seen.

I have also seen the fryer several times.

Xue Xian took a deep breath and said, "I didn't refine medicine, but stew soup."

Times were hard, and he had drifted toward serious nonsense.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, the small medicine stove, which was still floating in the air just now, suddenly followed his standing up and smashed heavily to the ground.

Boom!

The ash accumulated inside was all scattered on the ground!

The originally clean bench is hard to describe at this moment.

A scorched black bean-like thing slowly rolled out from the furnace mouth, emitting black gas, rolling and rolling, and finally stopped five feet away.

At Li Qingyu's feet.

"..."

Li Qingyu glanced at the elixir that failed to refine, then turned his eyes back to Xuexian's face, and said in a steady tone, "Is this soup?"

Xue Xian calmly said: "I've finished drinking. It's the residue."

Li Qingyu picked it up and casually looked at it a few times

Then the beans in his hand suddenly caught fire on his fingertips!The flame was taller than half a person, but Li Qingyu looked at it coldly, as if he didn't feel the high temperature.

Seeing that the red flames were burning vigorously, Xuexian's eyelashes trembled in shock!

I saw Li Qingyu's long finger pointed at the bean, and the flame suddenly lowered obediently, as if the appearance of baring its teeth and claws just now was just a bluff.

Then he said to Xuexian: "Zhu Que sent a message to go up to the peak, and we will go to the Changxian Hall to discuss matters later."

Hearing the words, Xuexian was a little surprised and said, "What's going on? What happened on the other side of the main peak?"

Li Qingyu picked up his finger, and the scorched black pill disappeared immediately, and said: "There is something different in the beast tower."

Xuexian immediately reacted: "The disciples who were sent out to investigate last time have come back?"

The other party simply nodded and said, "Zhu Que also called you by name."

Xue Xian opened her eyes wide: "Me?"

why?

After a stick of incense, the bewildered Xuexian was passed down to the main peak by a spell.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he found that Li Qingyu was still beside him, Xue Xian quickly stood up and put his arms behind his back.

At the moment, there are not many people in the Changxian Temple. Apart from Zhuque, there are law enforcement left and right.

When Xi Yun saw Xue Xian, he immediately ran up and said, "Mr. Yi, where have you been these two days? Xi Yu and I went to look for you on the small slope and found that the house was empty. We were very worried."

Xi Yu listened to the conversation, but pretended not to care, and whispered, "No one is worried!"

Xue Xian said simply: "I moved out of the hillside hut, so naturally I can't be found."

Xi Yun looked surprised: "Where does the doctor live now?"

Xuexian immediately looked away silently, and slowly turned her neck to look at the wall on the left.

He didn't know how to answer.

Xi Yun also turned to Zhu Que and asked: "Xianjun, you just sent a message to Yijun, but do you know the new residence of Yijun?"

This time, the candle magpie turned her head to the right wall vigorously, admiring the hanging paintings.And the action is very stiff.

He knew, but he couldn't answer casually.

Xi Yun: "..."

This is your morning neck exercise?

During the silence when several people looked at me and I looked at the painting, a deep voice sounded.

"He lives in the Baptist Palace of the deity." Li Qingyu said.

Xi Yun Xi Yu couldn't hide her surprise, and gasped at the same time!

Sure enough, the debt relationship related to Tassel is not fake!

Xue Xian was afraid that the two of them were about to say something surprising, so he hurriedly said to Zhu Que: "The Immortal Lord came to me and said that the disciple who inspected the Beast Tower has returned. I don't know what happened?"

Only then did Zhu Que turn his head back, "I sent dozens of disciples there last time, but although they saw the Beast Tower in front of them, they couldn't enter through the door."

He spread out his palm, and a small stone box appeared on it, inside which was a toad with a broken hind leg, and continued: "The disciple said that there are toads all around the demon tower, big and small, with pustules and venom on their bodies." , so I would like to ask the doctor to appraise whether this is one of the five spirit poisons."

Xue Xian moved closer and looked at the stone box in his hand. A swamp-colored toad was struggling, as if trying to break through the restriction. It had some peculiar lines and pustules on its body, not like ordinary frogs.

Xuexian first called out the storage bag, took out a pill from it, crushed it through the sleeve, and sprinkled it lightly on the poisonous toad.

Xi Yun asked curiously, "Is this an unrefined elixir?"

Xue Xian nodded, "All spirit herbs are poisonous, as long as they are not refined, they are regarded as poison, and can repel beast monsters below the middle level."

While speaking, out of the corner of his eye, he caught Li Qingyu looking at him.Xue Xian didn't dare to look back directly, pretending not to see and continue spreading poison.

Li Qingyu glanced at him just now, and he must have remembered that when the two were in the cave, he used the same method to retreat the three-eyed snake when he was in danger.It's just why after nine years, the other party still remembers the matter of the cave!

While distracted, Zhu Que suddenly asked him in surprise: "Mr. Doctor, have you been stained with medicine powder! Why did your face suddenly turn red? Is it a sign of poisoning?"

Xue Xian shook his head wildly, staring at Toad, not daring to move around.Noticing that the eyes of someone beside him seemed to be still on him, his face blushed unconsciously.

The toad in the box was still wriggling its sticky body, a few pustules rubbed against the corners of the stone box, and the mucus flowed out from the wear, Xi Yu already had an expression of wanting to vomit.

After a while, Xue Xian noticed a tinge of color protruding from the edge of the toad's mouth, as if there was something in the toad's mouth, and said quickly: "There is something in his mouth!"

Li Qingyu immediately raised his finger and swiped at the toad. The body of the toad trembled violently immediately, and the mucus on his body shook accordingly. This time, even Zhu Que couldn't help turning his head to the side in disgust.

Finally, the toad opened its wide mouth, and a lump of shapeless, muddy debris fell out!

A smell of damp soil mixed with fairy chicken feces immediately spread throughout the hall.

Everyone pinched their noses almost instantly.Except Li Qingyu and Xuexian.

Zhu Que frowned and said, "Why does this lump smell so strong, could it be the smell from the poisonous toad's mouth?"

Xi Yu held his breath and said, "But this small point can suffocate the entire Changxian Palace."

Xue Xian also smelled it naturally, but instead of covering his nose and mouth like the others, he carefully looked at the crumbs covered with toad mucus, which looked like green grass being crushed.

Xuexian said: "This toad is indeed one of the five spirit poisons, also known as the otter poison toad. It comes from the golden toad."

He will never admit his mistakes, not just because he has read medical books extensively in the past few years and has read records in books.It's even more because in "Tao Companion He Ascended to Become a God", there is a group of people who specialize in refining five spirit poisons, such as the old man Wanzhu, Jin Chanzi, and the mother of the thousand snake ghosts who have lost their three views.

These people can hold a table of five poisonous classmates to see who can practice more poisonous things.

For a period of time, the Beast Tower was where Jin Chanzi was in charge.At that time, the original owner went to the tower alone to collect materials, and ended up being hit by two toad medicines made by the other party. It was all strange about the use of that aspect. The symptoms of the two medicines were not the same. The article vaguely described the problem that the original owner solved alone. process.In the end, the original owner dragged his body to go back for treatment. In addition to the pain, he still did not forget to extract his poisoned blood as the next round of refining medicine.

After Xuexian finished watching this paragraph, he felt a heart attack.

The author is the devil!

In the Changxian Palace.

A low and cold voice sounded slowly: "Jin Chanzi left the customs 50 years ago, and now he is releasing the poisonous toad, he must be recruiting companions."

Zhu Que: "Then what should we do? Even if Jin Chanzi and thousands of toads are having a carnival inside, we won't be able to get in."

Xi Yun and Xi Yu also looked at each other tangled, as if walking into a dead end.

Suddenly, Li Qingyu raised his thick eyelashes, and said to Xuexian: "I didn't smell the grass in the poisonous toad's mouth just now."

Xue Xian asked suspiciously: "Smellless? But we all smelled it just now..."

Before she finished speaking, Xue Xian opened her eyes wide, and she realized in an instant that many possibilities flashed through her mind.

He lowered his voice and said, "Could it be the spirit grass used to make the medicine stick? That spirit grass must be particularly tough, and it can survive such a long time in the mouth of the poisonous toad. Maybe there are many monsters born in the beast tower. , so toads are also used to eating it.”

Li Qingyu said in a low voice.

Obviously already thought of it.

Zhu Que didn't quite see the content of their conversation, but saw that the two of them were very close together, which could be called a whispered secret conversation, but in his perception, it was really difficult to put this kind of behavior in a low voice and secret conversation with Li Qingyu ,

It can be seen that the faces of the other two are quite serious, so he asked: "Qing Yu, are you and Mr. Yi going to the Beast Demon Tower?"

Xue Xian frowned, feeling a little conflicted in his heart, because of the post-reading trauma of "The Taoist Companion Ascending into a God", he didn't want to get close to this tower that gave him a bad impression.

At this time, after the wooden box toad spit out the grass, its mouth began to open and close again.

Xi Yu covered her mouth: "Could he be vomiting something again... That lump of shapeless weed smells so scary, if he vomits any more offal, I'm going to vomit it too!"

Xue Xian immediately flung out the storage bag, pulled out a light yellow pill from inside, and said, "Here it is. It's an antiemetic."

Xi Yu didn't even say a word this time, and took it immediately.

Suddenly, a shrill voice sounded in the hall.

"Will my child scare the suzerains of Zhunwu Peak? I am Jin Chanzi, one of the five spirit poisons, and I want my child to give me a few words to Ziwufeng."

Xuexian's pupils opened, and he always felt... this way of transmitting voices that only hears the voice but does not see the person, has a strange sense of familiarity.

It reminded him of the Thousand Snake Ghost Mother.

Xi Yu's face was distorted: "Someone actually called the poisonous toad a baby!"

The voice of Jin Chanzi continued to spit out from the poisonous toad's mouth.

"It is rumored that the first one in Jinwu Peak has just broken the ninth level of cultivation. I think there are many disciples on the peak who have advanced cultivation. This time I don't ask much. Within five days, I will send a medical practitioner to the Beast Demon Tower. Only one person is allowed. Attend together with the first seat in the Wufeng Peak, otherwise those children who have been poisoned by the mucus of the poisonous toad will have poisonous toad pustules on their bodies within half a month, and eventually fester and die."

After speaking, unlike the Thousand Snake Ghost Mother, Jin Chanzi didn't laugh up to the sky, but made a distorted crackling sound. Xuexian couldn't understand whether this voice was a sound that can be made by a human throat, and the toad in front of him moved He closed his mouth wide and didn't move anymore.

The main hall was quiet for a while, no one spoke.

In the end it was Xi Yu who broke the silence: "Do you have to go?"

The stench reminded him of rotting animal carcasses.

Zhu Que frowned deeply: "Naturally, I have to go there, or the rest of the disciples' lives will be ruined. As the leader of the fairy sect, it is impossible for Zhu Wufeng not to intervene."

It's just that Jin Chanzi asked for a doctor by name, so who should he go...?

"There are only two medical practitioners on the peak, and the old medical practitioners are old, so let me go there." Xue Xian looked at him with a calm tone.

Although he didn't want to enter the Beast Tower, the current situation didn't allow him to refuse.

"The deity should also go there." Li Qingyu's face was cold, and with a wave of his sleeve, the poisonous toad immediately shattered into pieces, and disappeared from Zhu Que's hand together with the stone box.

The two law enforcement officers were very good at reading faces, and after exchanging glances, they went out of the hall to manage.Since Li Qingyu was going, he must act swiftly and resolutely, and he couldn't delay it for two days.

...

afternoon.

After Xue Xian was teleported back to Dufeng, he studied the spirit grass on the short grass field outside the Baptist Feather Hall.

Within ten feet around him, there are four or five kinds of spiritual grass growing. The leaves of all varieties are different, and some even have irregular leaf patterns.Xue Xian looked at it seriously, thinking that the terrain of Dufeng was higher, so the plants were different from those on the main peak, all of them were species that he could not see on the hillside before, except that this is Li Qingyu's residence, there are a lot of plants here. For medical practitioners, the spiritual grass is a rare research holy place.

Xuexian squatted in the grass, counting all kinds of plants, one of which was obviously rattan, slender and long, exuding a faint fragrance, Xuexian always felt that this must be the essence of refining medicine, so he folded one Put a lot in the medicine stove.

Suddenly a deep voice sounded from behind.

"This is a coiled vine, not a spiritual grass."

Xue Xian was startled suddenly, he swayed, and the medicine stove beside him also fell down.

The few vines that had just been put inside fell out.

Li Qingyu first glanced at the pile of vines, and then turned his eyes back to Xuexian, "This kind of vines grows anywhere and can be found everywhere."

The cloud is calm and the wind is light.It clearly means that this is weeds.

Xuexian: "..."

Xue Xian pretended to stand up calmly, coughed, and said, "I just picked it up to make soup."

hateful.He waited and found a place where no one was there, and dumped everything.

Li Qingyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Like the pot of soup you failed to make last time?"

"..."

He just found out.When Li Qingyu really spoke, he could really gag people.

Li Qingyu saw that Xue Xian's cheeks were slightly puffed up, and the corners of his robe were stained with mud, but he was too focused on observing the spirit grass, so he didn't notice it, but the tassels around his waist were well protected, and he was far away just now. Looking at it from a distance, before the other party squatted down, he specially pulled up the ornament so that the tassel string did not touch the ground.

Li Qingyu: "Xi Yun asked the kitchen to pass on the spiritual food."

When Xuexian heard that there was something to eat, she was overjoyed instantly, "Spiritual food? Are there many flavors?"

He has not eaten in the past two days since he came up to Bain Yu Hall, and he has not taken the time to visit Dufeng's kitchen.

But Xi Yun doesn’t know his taste, he just hopes it’s not stewed with bamboo and potato, this plant is unique to Wufeng, and the kitchen on the peak will serve spiritual food based on it every three days, but Xuexian doesn’t like it The astringent taste, after tasting it once, was listed as a refusal to communicate.

Wait for the two to return to the Baptist Hall.

Xuexian saw several plates of light-colored things on the wooden table.When I took a closer look, I found that it was steamed cake!

His expression immediately jumped with joy.

He wandered around the kitchen several times to look for it, but he couldn't see the pastry, and today he brought three plates at a time.

Xue Xian happily picked up a piece, and after biting his mouth, his face was full of satisfaction, and he couldn't help saying: "Zhiwufeng's steamed cake must be the best delicacy in the whole fairy sect. In the past, I got a small plate, It has to be divided into several days to eat, and I am reluctant to eat it all at once.”

Li Qingyu saw that two pieces of cake suddenly disappeared from the plate, and while listening to Xuexian's narration, the scene in the mirror painting during the practice reappeared.

Every time the other party went back to the kitchen to pick up the spiritual food and went back to the hut, if they opened the Lingzhu potato buns, their complexion would immediately collapse, and they would throw the spiritual food on the table wearily, but if it was this steamed cake, the snow would be as leisurely as before. The same, holding it happily, but at that time, he was reluctant to part with it, and ate it very cherished, for fear that if he accidentally bit too much, it would all be gone.

After Xuexian ate the third piece, he said: "Every time Xi Yun brought bamboo potatoes to the hut, why did he get enlightened today, and he actually sent Zhi steamed cakes over."

Although he just wiped the corners of his mouth indiscriminately, Xuexian still had a small smear of light-colored cake crumbs on his lips, and he was squinting at the second plate, as if he was going to take it at any time.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to reach out his hand, the other hand stretched out in front of his lips, and gently picked it up, the calloused fingertips rubbed against his lips, feeling a little warm.

Xuexian froze for a moment, then looked at Li Qingyu.

I saw the other party put the cake crumbs on his finger to his mouth, and said slowly: "It's really good."

Xue Xian blushed almost immediately, and pointed to the wooden plate on the table, "Here, there is more here, I just ate one plate, the rest should be given to you by Xi Yun."

Li Qingyu only said: "Don't you eat? Then the deity will let Zuo Law Enforcement take it back and pour it out."

Xuexian immediately protected the pastry!

"Don't! Don't take it back... If you don't want to eat it, I can solve it for you."

So the remaining two wooden trays were naturally moved to a certain bench in the Baptist Hall.As the people in the chair flipped through the medical books, the pastries on the plate gradually decreased until there was no one left.

The big window in the hall was still slightly open, Xuexian was tired from reading, so he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

In his deep sleep, he could still feel the soft wind blowing in from the corner of the window, and it was cool against his skin, making him sleep soundly and deeply. In his dream, there were plate after plate of steamed cakes, but this time He didn't have to eat sparingly, but took a big bite unceremoniously, the sweet and fragrant taste melted in his mouth, making the corners of his lips rise in joy.

……

a new day.

Birds chirped outside, as if a flock of birds flew past Dufeng together, stopped for a short rest, and then flew to the next destination after recovering enough energy.

That chirping sound is lovely, not as loud as the birds in Qian Snake Ghost Mother's Land.

Xue Xian was also reluctant to wake up, so she closed her eyes and listened for a while, then raised her hand and rubbed her eyelids.

Since moving into the Baptist Palace, he has been sleeping soundly for the past two days, and the dreams he has are also long dreams, the kind that are not easily interrupted, probably because the bedding and pillows are too fluffy, and the quality of sleep has improved.

Thinking of this, Xuexian couldn't help but rubbed the quilt on the side of her lower body with her cheek, feeling that the fluffy touch makes people not want to wake up.

After a while, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, and opened his eyes forcefully in a daze.

In an instant——

Large bed surround.

Pure white pillow.

Four bedposts.

There was a bang in Xuexian's head.

Why, why is Li Qingyu on the bed again! !
