Chapter 121: Heart of Love and Time of Protection for Hundred Days
"Master, Master, the plague has been identified. As you said, this plague is indeed strange and bizarre."
"There is new information in the village at the corner of Yingan Mountain. The villagers here all say that there is soul-collecting grass in Yingan Mountain." The guard came hurriedly to report, and then placed a dried magic grass on the table.
"Is this the Soul-Catching Grass?" Xi Ye picked it up excitedly.
The guard reminded: "Master, this grass may look ordinary, but once it encounters people, it will emit a strange smell. It is truly a soul-sucking messenger."
"Soul Catcher? Very good, very good." A smile appeared on Xiye's lips.
The guard shook his head and said, "The people here seem to be used to it. They also said that foreigners who come here will be defeated and the soul-catcher will take them away."
"All generals, listen to my orders. Follow me into the main vein of Yingan Mountain at midnight tonight."
"Don't notify Li Ye. Go back to your camp tomorrow and continue to build momentum."
"This..." The generals looked at Xi Ye in confusion.
"Just do as you are told." Xi Ye said, and ordered the generals to return to the camp to prepare.
Looking up at the sky, Xiye sighed heavily: "Tian'er, the day when we meet will not be too far away."
Sure enough, information came from the only village at the foot of the Yingan Mountains.
"I heard that the God of War in the Immortal Realm is also a softie. I heard that he abandoned all the soldiers who were infected with the plague. This is really intolerable." A white-haired old man spoke with grief and indignation.
"What is this? This God of War probably can't do it..."
"You may not know, but I heard that his concubine, our demon princess Inga, had an affair with his soldiers and was caught red-handed..." The blind old woman smiled mysteriously.
"This, this is really, I didn't expect that the dignified God of War can't do it, this is such a pity..."
"What a shame! How vicious of a heart he has to abandon his soldiers..."
After hearing this, everyone shook their heads, some looked down on him, some sighed...
........................
"Go, you guys go into the cave immediately. Remember, you have to catch them alive."
"Master, today, we will make sure he never comes back." The man's voice was rough and proud.
Ming Yan snorted coldly and said, "I would like to see what he looks like. Who or what could make him come here so desperately?"
The man laughed and said, "Master, that's beyond words. A dignified fairy doesn't want to be a fairy anymore. She came to this cave. If she doesn't die for money, she will die for food."
Ming Yan stared at the cave entrance coldly, looked around and said: "You just guard this cave entrance. I have my own ideas, and no fish can slip through the net."
"Tian'er, Tian'er. How are you?" Liunian called out hurriedly inside the cave.
It turned out that Liunian had gone to the Immortal Emperor's Mausoleum long after Xiye had left. Seeing that Baitian was still recovering, he did not think much about it and told her that Xiye had asked him to take care of her.
But after I came back, the more I thought about it, the more I felt something was wrong...
Especially Bai Tian's expression after seeing this suicide note. Liu Nian suddenly had a bad feeling. With Tian'er's temper, she would definitely not live alone, so what would she do?
When he thought of this, Liu Nian really wanted to slap himself. He shouldn't have shown her this letter...
"Lord Liunian, this place is full of soul-catching grass. She must have been poisoned by it." said the guard.
At this moment, Yang Baitian no longer had the beauty he once had. His entire face was already disfigured, and now it was even more lifeless. It was unbearable to look at...
Liunian nodded and decided to use his spiritual power to force the poison out of her little by little, but the efficiency required would probably be higher than re-making the antidote.
But at this moment, he couldn't care less. Liunian concentrated and calmed down, trying to condense a barrier to protect Tian'er.
"Lord Liunian, this Ming Yan must have discovered our tracks and is waiting for us. If you force the poison out of the fairy bead now, it will only backfire and do more harm than good." The guard reminded. "But Tian'er can't wake up, how can I just leave her here?" Liunian said as he used his power.
"Who is it? I can't stand it, it's so noisy." The sound of horse hooves and the calls made my temples throb, and I was so angry that I cursed.
"Tian'er? Are you awake?" Liu Nianjun's face was full of smiles. This girl could actually sleep soundly in such a place.
"Huh? You?" I blinked and touched the face of the person in front of me with my fingers.
Liunian's face turned red.
"Liunian? Is it really you?" I sat up in surprise.
"The Immortal King was worried that it was unsafe for you to come to the Yingan Mountains alone, so he hurried on the journey for several days."
"Xianzhuzi, where else in the world can you find a man like our Immortal King? How can you repay our Immortal King's kindness?" the guard asked dissatisfiedly.
Liu Nianjun's face turned even redder, and he said to the guard, "Don't talk nonsense like that anymore."
The guard curled his lips and looked at me coldly.
I thought to myself, I wasn't poisoned at all, it's just that the fragrance was too strong and I felt a little dizzy for a while. I haven't blamed you for being too noisy.
However, Liunian actually came to find me after such a long journey and in such a dangerous place. This friendship is really too difficult to repay. I quickly stood up, bowed and said, "Thank you for your concern, Immortal Liunian. If you need me in the future, just let me know." After saying that, I winked at him.
Liu Nian suddenly laughed out loud: "Tian'er, you don't have to rush to repay my favor. Now is the chance."
I was speechless, thinking, "No way, Liu Nian is asking for payment so soon."
"Listen, people in the cave, come out immediately, otherwise you will be burned to death." The shouting outside the cave started again.
"Okay, give him some time. After all, he is a fellow traveler." Ming Yan's voice came.
I frowned and said, "These bastards actually want to kill people? Liunian, how did you get targeted by this group of people?"
Liunian shook his head: "It's hard to explain this matter clearly for the time being, but I believe Tianer will find a way to escape." Liunian looked around the cave and said slowly.
As he was talking, a gust of hot wind blew in from the cave, and the coolness in the cave immediately disappeared, replaced by a burst of heat...
I was overjoyed and quickly took out my compass.
Sure enough, as expected, continuing forward into the cave, we reached the northwest corner.
At this time, flames began to light up at the entrance of the cave. Ming Yan actually set fire to the entrance of the cave, and smoke was seen spreading straight into the cave.
"Put it on quickly. Go inside the cave." I hurriedly threw the masks to the two of them and put on my mask again.
"The smoke is rushing straight into the cave, but we still want to go inside? Isn't this courting death?" asked the guard.
"Then you should come out of the cave and surrender, and strive for Mingyan's forgiveness..." I said disapprovingly.
Liu Nian smiled, leaving the guard looking at the thing in his hand in confusion, and then looking at my expression.
"Xianzhuzi, are you here alone?" the guard asked curiously.
I shook my head: "There are two more, temporarily out of touch."
The guard looked around: "Where are they?"
"They will catch up." Thinking of Wuyi and Lengyu, I guessed that they got lost because the cave is rugged and there are too many branch caves... I made special marks as I walked. Fortunately, I taught them before leaving, and Wuyi had marching experience, so they would definitely not get lost.
