When mentioning Gu Lian, the first thing that came to Shen Yulan's mind was a handsome young face, not an old man with gray hair.

Fifty years ago, Gu Lian was rejected by Xianmen and Mozong successively. After that, he has sufficient financial and material resources, but he did not give up his pursuit of longevity.

Soon, Gu Lian set his mind on those elixir and miraculous medicines. He spent all his wealth, but he always bought fakes.

He didn't have the strength to snatch the pill from those monks, so he started to cheat - this was just the beginning.

Shen Yulan was naturally aware of this person's actions, facing Le Zhengbai's question, she did not answer.

According to the timeline, the biggest crime that Gu Lian committed should have happened a year later, when Jiang Huaiyuan went down the mountain to practice, and ran into Rong Bingfeng in Lingtai City.At that time, Jiang Huaiyuan was appointed by Shen Yulan to investigate a strange case in Lingtai City. After hearing about it, Rong Bingfeng expressed his desire to investigate together.

After some twists and turns, the two discovered that the strange casualties in Lingtai City were not caused by monsters, but by human hands.

Later, when Gu Lian's whereabouts were revealed, he set up a trap to kill the two of them, but Rong Bingfeng, who was careful, saw through and died by the sword.

After Gu Lian's death, Rong Bingfeng obtained the magic weapon of the fairy family that was occupied by Gu Lian, learned the superior skills from it, and gained some insights from it, breaking through the bigu stage in one fell swoop.

It is precisely because of this that Rong Bingfeng made great contributions, and coupled with Jiang Huaiyuan's various requests, he was exceptionally accepted as an inner disciple by the Izumomen and became Jiang Huaiyuan's junior.

Now that Gu Lian was arrested by Le Zhengbai before he had time to commit the incident in Lingtai City, Shen Yulan naturally couldn't guess what else he did.

He didn't even bother to guess. If Gu Lian died here today, it meant that Rong Bingfeng would not be able to get rid of Gu Lian to establish a relationship with Jiang Huaiyuan, break through the bigu period, and enter the Izumo Gate.

That chess piece should have been burned by the summoned Huo Jue, but he hesitated when he did it.

Today's Shen Yulan has long deliberately forgotten that it was he who went down the mountain with Jiang Huaiyuan and solved the case of Lingtai City in the first place, and it was he, the fairy family captured from the hands of the villain, who became famous and improved in cultivation. The magic weapon used to be his.

"Daoist Shen, do you still remember the epidemic in Qingyi Town 40 years ago?"

Qingyi Town?

Shen Yulan frowned slightly. 40 years ago, he passed by there and helped an old couple there. It was not a big deal. If Le Zhengbai didn't mention it, he had already forgotten it.

"That year, there was an epidemic in Qingyi Town, and there were many poor people in the town. Pindao and Daoist Liu once went together to deliver medicine to the poor people who had the epidemic. Why, this matter is also related to Gu Lian?"

Could it be the pathogen spread by Gu Lian?

"Gu Lian once spent a lot of money to hire an old couple from that town to do things for him. After the couple took the money, they didn't take the medicine sent by the Izumomen monks on time, creating the illusion that the cure was not good. A monk with a simple and kind character asked for a elixir of immortality. A cultivator who eats it will greatly help his cultivation. Ordinary people who eat it can continue their lives even if half of their feet are in the gate of hell. To this day, I still don't know that the life-saving elixir I sent out ended up in Gu Lian's hands."

Before Shen Yulan could recover from the truth he had just learned, Le Zhengbai continued to explain that Gu Lian was inspired by this incident and began to study those sorcery that could bring disaster, and every time he successfully attracted The monks from all walks of life came to solve it, even cooperating with members of the Demon Sect, and only later did the matter of Lingtai City come into being.

The epidemic that broke out in Qingyi Town was purely accidental, but the subsequent disasters were caused by Gu Lian, but this person is not a talkative villain in the original book, and no one knows what happened, and he will not start it out of nowhere Talking to himself, he confessed everything to give the protagonist a chance to fight back.

At first, the purpose of studying those sorcery was to attract more monks to take the bait. Later, Gu Lian found that whenever people from the fairy sect came to solve the incident, the common people would worship those people as real gods.

When Gu Lian finally returned to his old age by relying on those miscellaneous fairy medicines and chance treasures he got from nowhere, he began to rely on self-directed and self-acted disaster relief to attract believers and disguise himself as an outsider.

Shen Yulan lived many lifetimes, but this was the first time he heard of Gu Lian's evil deeds. Just now, he was still worried about why Rong Bingfeng would miss the opportunity. Thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling a little ashamed.

Maybe it was because of a turbulent mood, or maybe it was because after too long, the painful symptoms before the onset of the Gu poison resurfaced again, which disturbed Shen Yulan's mind and made her fingertips tingle.

"Daoist Shen, don't you think that such a Gu Lian deserves to die sooner or later, so why not die?"

Shen Yulan was immersed in deep self-blame. Hearing this, she thought for a moment that her thoughts had been seen through, and hurriedly retorted: "No!"

Up to now, the only thing he wants is to be ashamed of his heart, so how can he lose his original intention here and put selfishness above morality!

As if wanting to extinguish the evil thoughts in his heart, he hastily made a formula and summoned a spiritual fire to burn the chess pieces. The jade trembled in place, and lost its luster after a while.

Le Zhengbai saw his reaction in his eyes, and his smile deepened. Only then did Shen Yulan realize that the meaning of what he just said was that Gu Lian had committed a serious crime and was played as a pawn and died here, just like those The poor people he used were also at the mercy of others, and they deserved to die.

Shen Yulan's mood was unstable, and it was too late to notice the calculation flashing in Le Zhengbai's eyes. His intuition made him suspicious, but after repeated thinking, he felt that it was even more impossible.

In any case, it is impossible for Le Zhengbai to know so much, let alone see through his own worries, he is the one who is dazed.

Unknowingly, the chess has been played for more than half, and the winner will be divided soon.

And so far, every chess piece that has been put to death by the method of the five elements has been maintained by the person who has had direct contact with Shen Yulan. It is not so much catering to his mind, punishing evil and promoting good, as it is by virtue of his reputation. , mercilessly exposed all his self-righteousness in the past.

Self-righteous, self-righteous, self-righteous.

From the beginning, because of the cruelty of the 'Longevity Chess', it was difficult to move an inch on the chessboard. Later, because of the guilt brought by knowing too much, I suffered a lot.

He felt that after playing this game of chess, even if the Gu poison could be cured, he himself could not cure it anymore.

When the "Immortal Son" on the chessboard finally dissipated its aura, and the victory or defeat was settled, Shen Yulan's face was ashen, and she only took the Moon Bright Grass and left.

He stood up and was about to leave, his steps were weak, when he turned around, he was stopped by Le Zhengbai.

"Daoist Shen, the antidote is in the bamboo forest in the back mountain."

That's right, the antidote, he still has Gu poison on his body, and there are still chess pieces left on the chessboard, his poison has not been cured yet.

Walking straight west from the small courtyard, you can reach a bamboo forest, which is now covered with a layer of enchantment. It is the place where Le Zhengbai used to imprison the 49 people after he captured them.

Now, there must be dead bodies all over the field, which is too horrible to look at.

"By the way, the antidote in the bamboo forest can only solve the temporary needs. After a hundred days, Taoist Shen will need to come to me again."

Shen Yulan stood with her back to him, turned her face sideways and squinted at him, couldn't see her expression clearly, opened her mouth slightly, hesitated to speak.

"If you don't want to see me, you can detoxify in a way that kills people."

Shen Yulan took a deep breath, and asked in a deep voice, "It must be seven or seven or forty-nine people?"

When Le Zhengbai heard it, he guessed that he had already checked the characteristics of the Demonic Heart Gu, and explained: "No, only 49 people are needed for the first attack, and if you want to suppress the Gu poison next time, you only need seven people, and the next time you still need [-] people." In a hundred days, kill seven more people, and so on.”

Shen Yulan: "Sect Master Lezheng doesn't intend to completely remove the poison from my body."

Le Zhengbai: "The time has not come yet."

Shen Yulan didn't say any more, and went towards the bamboo forest without turning her head. Time was running out, and her body felt pain again and again.

And behind him, Le Zhengbai was still sitting where he was, and he lifted his sleeves, only to see a string of Sanskrit characters on the forearm on the back of his hand like a fish floating out of the water, showing its color again, with a slight purple light.
