Upon learning that Chu Qinghe had made preparations against Jellyfish Yin Ji from the very beginning, the three women felt surprised, yet also felt that it was reasonable.
After all, judging from Chu Qinghe's past performance, no matter what happened or who he encountered, he would always respond immediately, as if the words "strike first to gain the advantage" were engraved in his bones.
However, Xiao Zhao beside him was still puzzled and asked, "But judging from what Palace Master Situ did just now, it seems that he had no ill intentions. Why did you let her be poisoned?"
With Chu Qinghe's medical skills and level of poisoning, it is easy to poison Jellyfish Yin Ji, and detoxification is naturally even easier.
As long as Chu Qinghe wanted, the poison on Jellyfish Yin Ji and the disciple of the Divine Water Palace next to her should be removed in an instant.
Chu Qinghe said nonchalantly: "Now this poison will be helpful in curing her problem later, so I am too lazy to stop it."
Qu Feiyan guessed, "Sir, do you want to treat her while she is unconscious?"
Chu Qinghe said calmly, "Some of the poisons in this courtyard are aimed at the special true qi of the Shenshui Palace who practice the Shenshui Jue. A large part of the problem in her body is also caused by the special true qi of the Shenshui Jue. During the time she was unconscious, these poisons were able to penetrate into the unique true qi of the Shenshui Jue in her body. It will be easier to take action after she wakes up."
Seeing that Chu Qinghe was not thinking of treating the jellyfish Yin Ji after she fainted from the poisoning, Qu Feiyan asked in confusion: "If that's the case, why don't you tell her first? How are you going to explain it to her when she wakes up?"
Chu Qinghe said slowly: "What's wrong with saying this? Just say that her body's true energy was turbulent and she became possessed and fainted, isn't that enough?"
People who are sick are often the easiest to fool.
They can be convinced easily, otherwise those fake drug dealers in the previous life would not have been able to deceive those patients so easily.
After hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Yao Yue looked at Chu Qinghe with a half-smile on her face: "You are so skilled. It seems that you have deceived many people in the past."
Facing what Yao Yue said, Chu Qinghe said unhappily: "Don't make a fuss. If not, should I just tell her that I have poisoned the yard?"
After snorting in her heart, Yao Yue turned her gaze and glanced at the box of Qiankun Holy Water in Xiao Zhao's hand before slowly speaking, "Is this Qiankun Holy Water so important? It actually made you offer to treat this woman?"
Chu Qinghe said calmly: "It's OK. It's quite useful. It's the main ingredient for refining the Changchun Pill."
"The elixir of immortality?"
Upon hearing this, the three women all looked at Chu Qinghe with confusion, obviously they had never heard of this name of elixir before.
Chu Qinghe explained: "To put it simply, it is the Anti-aging Pill. After taking it, one can keep his face young, but the effect is average. It can only last for ten years. After ten years, he will still be the same as an ordinary person."
"What?"
After learning about the effects of the Changchun Pill from Chu Qinghe, Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao widened their eyes, their little faces filled with surprise.
Even Yao Yue's reaction at this moment was not much different from that of the two women.
The "Ming Yu Gong" in Yihua Palace is what attracts the most attention in the martial arts world. Apart from its power, the more mysterious thing is that once the "Ming Yu Gong" reaches the eighth level, it can keep one young forever.
Even when they are in their forties or fifties, they look almost the same as when they are in their twenties.
But there is a difference after all, not that there is no problem at all.
Even if one reaches the ninth level, one's appearance will not remain ageless.
Just like the master of Yaoyue and Lianxing, the previous Palace Master of Yihua Palace, he is now over a hundred years old and has entered the realm of heaven and man. His lifespan has skyrocketed, and his "Ming Yu Gong" has also reached the ninth level limit. Although he does not have the white hair of an ordinary person, just looking at his face, he is almost like a woman in her thirties.
Everyone loves beauty, let alone a stunning beauty like Yao Yue who has unparalleled beauty.
Naturally, people pay more attention to their own appearance.
Even if the elixir of immortality that Chu Qinghe mentioned is only effective for ten years, if combined with the "Ming Yu Gong", it will be enough for Yao Yue to maintain her current appearance for a hundred years.
The attraction of this is hard for any woman to resist.
Therefore, after learning about the effect of the Qiankun Holy Water, Yao Yue's eyes sparkled and her breathing became a little disordered.
After a moment, Qu Feiyan, who had calmed down, said, "Since this Holy Water has such an effect, why has no one in the martial arts world heard of this?"
Chu Qinghe said calmly: "Perhaps even they themselves don't know the effect of this Qiankun Holy Water!"
There is a clear difference .
Moreover, this holy water of Qiankun is unique to the Shenshui Palace and is rarely seen in the world.
As for those people in the Shenshui Palace who have some knowledge of medicine, how can they understand the true usage and value of the Qiankun Holy Water?
Even for Chu Qinghe, if it weren't for the all-encompassing medicines involved in this master-level medical system, it would be impossible for him to know the other uses of the Qiankun Holy Water.
Listening to what Chu Qinghe said, Yao Yue, Qu Feiyan and Xiao Zhao couldn't help but look at Chu Qinghe strangely.
If we go by what Chu Qinghe said, the Qiankun Holy Water itself belongs to the Shenshui Palace. Even the people in the Shenshui Palace don't know the specific function of the Qiankun Holy Water, but Chu Qinghe, an outsider, actually knows it.
This seems a bit intriguing.
However, there are many intriguing things about Chu Qinghe, and the women are already used to it, so one more thing wouldn't be too much.
Therefore, after changing their minds, the girls did not think any further about this matter.
…
The other side.
Blackwood Cliffs.
Under the setting sun, in the back mountain of Heimu Cliff, it was only January, but the maple leaves on the branches of the huge wind-blown trees in the back mountain were as red as fire.
Combined with the inky black stone on the mountain behind Heimu Cliff, it actually gives people a sense of solemnity.
At this time, Dongfang Bubai, still wearing a fiery red robe, stood quietly with one hand. As his true energy flowed, the maple leaves around him seemed to be pulled by an invisible force and surrounded Dongfang Bubai.
Under the dim sunset, they looked like a few swimming dragons.
The Dongfang Bubai with a golden crown on his hair looked particularly domineering at this time.
However, at this moment, Sang Sanniang's voice suddenly came from the entrance of the back mountain.
"Master."
Hearing Sang Sanniang's voice, Dongfang Bubai frowned slightly.
With the burst of true energy, the maple leaves around it instantly fell from the sky.
After opening his eyes, Dongfang Bubai said coldly: "Come in!"
Ten breaths later, Sang Sanniang half-knelt in front of Dongfang Bubai and bowed her head, saying, "Master, there is news from Yu Shui City that people from the Divine Water Palace entered Yu Shui City yesterday. Someone vaguely heard the disciples of the Divine Water Palace call one of them the Palace Master. It is very likely that this is the Palace Master of the Divine Water Palace, Shui Ji Yin Ji."
"Jellyfish Yin Ji?"
Hearing what Sang Sanniang said, Dongfang Bubai frowned slightly.
"Jelly Water Yin Ji actually went to Yu Shui City in person!"
Obviously, Dongfang Bubai had never thought that a mere jade token could actually attract the Lord of the Shenshui Palace to come in person.
After a few breaths, Dongfang Bubai thought for a moment and asked, "Is Yaoyue still in Yushui City?"
In response to Dongfang Bubai's question, Sang Sanniang said, "I haven't received any news about Palace Master Yao Yue's departure yet. I think she is still in Master Chu's courtyard."
Hearing this, Dongfang Bubai's expression relaxed slightly.
Dongfang Bubai was well aware of Yao Yue's strength. Looking around the world, among those in the perfect Grandmaster realm, there was no rival except those who were slightly weaker than himself.
That Jellyfish Yin Ji is only at the middle stage of Grandmaster Realm, and Yu Shui City is not affiliated with the Divine Water Palace.
With Yao Yue at Chu Qinghe's home, Chu Qinghe would not have any problems even if Jellyfish Yin Ji came in person.
Then, Dongfang Bubai asked, "Has the person that Ren Woxing had contact with in Longyue City been found out?"
Sang Sanniang whispered, "Master, during this period of time, I have led people to interrogate all those in Longyue City who had or might have had contact with Ren Woxing. Someone did see Ren Woxing meet someone else, but that person was wearing a black hat, so it was difficult to identify his identity."
Hearing this, Dongfang Bubai frowned.
Obviously not satisfied with this result.
After a moment, Dongfang Bubai cursed, "It's all because of that stupid woman meddling in other people's business. Now all the clues are gone."
After eliminating Ren Woxing and his men who stayed in the Sun-Moon Sect, the Sun-Moon Sect can now be said to be a one-man show under Dongfang Bubai.
Under such circumstances, how could Dongfang Bubai not know about the incident that Ren Woxing, Ren Yingying and Xiang Wentian sneaked into the Black Wood Cliff that night?
The reason why he pretended to be ignorant was to play a long game and fish out the person who had contact with Ren Woxing that day.
Little did he know that Yao Yue would suddenly come, and that idiot Ren Woxing would actually take the initiative to find Yao Yue, and finally bring three corpses to mock him.
Now the clues are gone and the person behind Ren Woxing has not been found out.
If he had known this would happen, Dongfang Bubai felt that it would be more satisfying to just kill Ren Woxing and the others with his own hands.
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the urge to have someone dig up Ren Woxing's body from the mass grave , Dongfang Bubai asked, "How are the preparations going for the Five Mountains Sword Sect?"
Sang Sanniang responded, "Master, according to what you said, during this period of time, except for the Hengshan Sect, the people of our Sun Moon Sect have secretly entered Huashan, Songshan and other four sects in batches to surround them."
"However, some elders in the sect have recently been confused. They don't know why the leader is preparing to attack the other four sects of the Five Mountains Sword Sect this time, but only let the Hengshan Sect go."
Dongfang Bubai said coldly: "Does this leader need to explain to them what he did?"
Sensing the obvious dissatisfaction in Dongfang Bubai's tone, Sang Sanniang quickly lowered her head and said, "I dare not."
Seeing this, Dongfang Bubai snorted, and then said, "Give the order and set off for Songshan Sect tomorrow."
Sang Sanniang quickly bowed and said, "I obey your command."
As the voice fell, Sang Sanniang quickly stood up.
However, just as Sang Sanniang turned around and was about to leave, she seemed to have thought of something and said to Dongfang Bubai: "Also, I have something else to report."
Dongfang Bubai said coldly: "Speak!"
Sang Sanniang said: "During this period of time, it seems that the people of Yihua Palace arranged for the books in many towns in the west to be printed and sent to various places. It is said that these stories have been spread to the Tang Dynasty, and the source of these stories should be the granddaughter of Elder Qu."
"Storybook?"
Dongfang Bubai listened to what Sang Sanniang said with a look of doubt on his face.
But on second thought, Dongfang Bubai had already roughly guessed the reason.
"He is quite clever, thinking of ways to mess with people all day long."
Dongfang Bubai then waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about this matter."
After a pause, Dongfang Bubai continued, "Also, if that girl goes to the bookstore with a new book every time, she should bring a copy here as soon as the copy is made."
Sang Sanniang bowed and said, "I understand."
After Sang Sanniang left, Dongfang Bubai turned around and looked in the direction of Yu Shui City.
"Once the matter of the Five Mountains Sword Sect is dealt with, we can rest for a while."
Perhaps thinking about going to Chu Qinghe's yard after dealing with the matters of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, a smile appeared on Dongfang Bubai's face.
But after a moment, Dongfang Bubai's face suddenly darkened, as if he was thinking of something.
"That stupid woman Yao Yue got a bargain."
…
at the same time.
Yushui City.
Located in the backyard of Chu Qinghe's home.
The hot water in the bamboo tube was continuously poured into the pool in front of him. Chu Qinghe sat on a chair with a pot of tea beside him.
It was quite relaxing to enjoy the beautiful sunset while sipping tea.
On the recliner next to her, the jellyfish Yin Ji, who had fainted from the poisoning, was lying there, covered with a fine white fox fur blanket.
It was also during this waiting period that the jellyfish Yin Ji, who had previously fainted due to poisoning, slowly opened her eyes.
But when I raised my eyelids and looked at this unfamiliar environment, memories suddenly came flooding back like a tide.
In an instant, the haziness in Jellyfish Yin Ji's eyes receded like the tide, and instead a cold look condensed in her eyes.
The body instantly sat up from the recliner as if it was installed with a spring.
Judging from the speed at which he sat up, his waist strength is definitely quite good.
However, the moment she sat up, feeling the disappearance of her Qi and her slightly sore body, Jellyfish Yin Ji's expression suddenly changed.
"Awake?"
However, before Jellyfish Yin Ji's uneasiness could emerge, a gentle voice slowly sounded from the side.
Hearing the sound, Jellyfish Yin Ji was startled and quickly turned her head to look.
But when she saw Chu Qinghe standing aside, Jellyfish Yin Ji was stunned again, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
She raised her hand to touch her face, then uncovered the blanket on her body. When she made sure that the veil and clothes on her body were intact, Jellyfish Yin Ji felt a little relieved.
Then he looked at Chu Qinghe and asked, "What am I doing?"
Chu Qinghe said softly, "Palace Master Situ, you used your Qi in a hurry just now, and your mind was distracted, so your Qi went backwards and you became possessed and fainted again."
As soon as he opened his mouth, the coaxing words came out.
Even when speaking, Chu Qinghe looked at Jellyfish Yin Ji seriously, his eyes full of skillful clarity and sincerity, it was obvious that he had practiced a lot.
Looking at Chu Qinghe, who had a sincere look and a gentle tone, Shuiji Yinji did not doubt him and nodded gently, "I see, but why can't I feel the true energy in my body?"
Chu Qinghe said softly, "Palace Master Situ, there is no need to worry. In order to avoid any problems, I used some medicine to temporarily seal the true energy in your body. After your illness is cured, you will recover naturally."
After saying this, Chu Qinghe habitually put on a professional smile on his face.
The dim sunlight at this moment fell squarely on Chu Qinghe's body, as if a layer of warm light covered Chu Qinghe's entire body.
Along with the smile on Chu Qinghe's face, Jellyfish Yin Ji's eyes flickered slightly, as if there was a place in her heart that had never been touched by anyone before, illuminated by Chu Qinghe's clear and gentle eyes.
The tension and uneasiness in my heart just now quickly dissipated, and I unconsciously relaxed.
But after a few breaths, Jellyfish Yin Ji reacted and quickly withdrew her gaze.
Then, looking at her neat and tidy clothes and the snow-white blanket beside her, Jellyfish Yin Ji suddenly frowned.
For some reason, I felt that my intact clothes were a bit of an eyesore when I woke up.
After a moment, after gathering the chaotic thoughts in her mind, Jellyfish Yin Ji moved her legs off the recliner and sat down.
His eyes followed the sound of flowing water.
But when her sight moved, Jellyfish Yin Ji could not see clearly why there was a sound of flowing water because of the obstruction of the four low walls.
After retracting her gaze, Jellyfish Yin Ji looked at Chu Qinghe and said, "Excuse me, can you really cure me, Master Chu, of my problem?"
Perhaps because he felt something was wrong, when Chu Qinghe heard the words "little girl" from Shui Ji Yin Ji's mouth, he glanced at Shui Ji Yin Ji, who was almost as tall as him, and then nodded and said, "Of course, Palace Master Situ, don't worry about it."
I don’t know if it’s because of the soft sunlight of the setting sun, or because of the strangeness in my body at this moment.
Jellyfish Yin Ji always felt that there was a stronger sense of tenderness in Chu Qinghe's voice now.
Moreover, his words gave people the feeling of a spring breeze in March, making Jellyfish Yin Ji feel soft all over.
Maybe it was because she had lost all the internal energy, or because of the inexplicable strange feeling in her heart, but Jellyfish Yin Ji did not mention any treatment or the matter of her being possessed.
Instead, he just sat quietly in the backyard with Chu Qinghe.
The "gurgling" sound of water in the bamboo tube actually felt pleasant to the ear at this moment.
The inner court.
At this time, Yao Yue stood quietly in the courtyard with one hand behind her back, and the true energy that was like bright jade and cold ice slowly flowed around her body.
But at this moment, Yao Yue frowned.
"Why is there no sound?"
At the same time, at the kitchen door, Qu Feiyan, who had just walked out of the kitchen, seemed to have discovered something wrong and suddenly let out a light exclamation, then looked towards Yao Yue in the yard next to him.
But when his eyes fell on Yao Yue, Qu Feiyan's doubts increased instead of decreasing.
Just now, when Qu Feiyan walked out of the kitchen, Qu Feiyan clearly noticed that Yao Yue was practicing with her back to the backyard.
But now looking carefully, Yao Yue was still surrounded by true energy and her standing position seemed to have not changed.
But the direction in which Yao Yue was standing now had changed from having her back to the backyard to facing the backyard.
Faced with this scene, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but mutter.
"Is it because of my eyesight?"
