Chapter 142

~7 min read 1,316 words

Several people were panicked for a while, but the old voice sighed helplessly.

"I don't want to die either, but what can I do!"

"We die if we die, we must leave a way for our descendants!"

"The daughter of 'that one', taking several great witches, went to Shuntian Prefecture... This time, the imperial court must be determined to destroy us. With 'that one' here, at least we have some capital to deal with."

Several people were silent.

After a while, one person gritted his teeth and said.

"Why! What kind of bullshit Miao King, what kind of bullshit ancestor! Dead for hundreds of years, and still want us to be filial sons and grandsons, and pay for him!"

"We were born naked, how did we inexplicably carry the debt! What kind of world! What kind of reason!"

"This bullshit witchcraft, passed down, it's really better to just abolish it!"

"Shut up!"

The old man shouted.

"Without witchcraft, what else can we live on!?"

"Drinking poison to quench thirst, at least we can not be thirsty for a while!"

Several people sighed one after another, and finally the old man made the final decision.

"That's it, our lives are given to him, just ask him to protect our descendants."

"Let's go, let's go unseal him."

Footsteps sounded, reaching the door.

The door opened wide, revealing an old face, full of heaviness.

But he was suddenly startled by Li Miao, who was standing at the door with his arms crossed and smiling.

"!!!"

"Yo, everyone, finished chatting?"

Li Miao waved, showing a kind smile, with a wisp of blood flowing down his gloves.

"Finished chatting, chat with me for a while."

————————

"Master, wait for me, my martial arts are not very good, I can't keep up with you!"

An Ziyang used light-body technique, barely hanging behind Yongjie, already panting.

His martial arts were piled up with heavenly treasures, and his internal strength was limited compared to ordinary second-rate. Coupled with the hidden weapons all over his body, adding up to dozens of pounds, it was even harder to travel long distances.

Yongjie frowned when he heard this, and turned to look at An Ziyang.

"Benefactor, with your martial arts foundation, it shouldn't be like this."

"Lust is a bone-scraping knife, which damages the foundation the most. You should pay more attention on weekdays to achieve something."

An Ziyang's kidney deficiency, Yongjie could naturally see it.

Then he became more and more dissatisfied with An Ziyang, and he couldn't even say where this dissatisfaction came from.

An Ziyang smiled honestly and nodded, but secretly slandered.

"Stinky monk, really treat yourself as a wrist? Putting on airs in front of me?"

"Didn't I just coax Ling'er for you? She's only a few years old, do you have to guard against me? If you don't thank me, you still deliberately make things difficult for me. When the time comes, I will definitely complain to Lord Li!"

The two were not very satisfied with each other, just one on the face, one in the heart.

After Yongjie received Li Miao's message, he set off immediately and headed to the Miao frontier. He didn't even ride a horse, traveled by light-body technique, day and night, and tossed An Ziyang enough.

Right now, Yongjie didn't mean to slow down at all.

Seeing this, An Ziyang rolled his eyes, opened his mouth to find a topic, wanting to slow down Yongjie's speed.

"Master, before you became a monk, were you a 'pillar of heaven'?"

"Counting the days, the time when your reputation in the Jianghu took a turn for the worse just happened to match Ling'er's age... so you suddenly started collecting all kinds of treasures in the Jianghu like crazy for her?"

Yongjie's footsteps paused, and after a while, he nodded.

"Yes."

An Ziyang realized.

"I often deal with the Tang Men and am most familiar with poisons. That day when I was with little Ling'er, I found that the things I used to prevent poison had been triggered when I returned to the guest room at night."

"Little Ling'er... did she get poisoned when she was young?"

Yongjie shook his head.

"No. This poison was obtained from her mother."

"Miao people's Gu poison."

"In these years, it was my master who used his own internal strength to suppress the Gu poison, so that Ling'er could grow up normally. My master passed the position to me, and a large part of the reason was to give me his internal strength to save Ling'er. Otherwise, how could I, a monk who became a monk halfway, be worthy of this Abbot position."

"It was on the way to the Miao frontier to find a way to solve the Gu poison on Ling'er that I met Lord Li."

An Ziyang was silent for a while before continuing to ask.

"Uh, your wife..."

"She is a Miao person, and also a great witch. She left without saying goodbye after giving birth to Ling'er, and there was no news. So I simply told Ling'er that she was dead, cutting off her thoughts, which is better than waiting bitterly every day."

"Then Ling'er..."

"No problem, before the master passed away, he had already explained to the brothers, they will suppress Ling'er's Gu poison on my behalf. It doesn't matter if I leave for a while."

"Your wife..."

"I don't know her origin, age, why she would leave the Miao frontier, why she would suddenly disappear, whether she is dead or alive now, I don't know."

Yongjie didn't stop, but a trace of sadness appeared in his eyes.

"In the end, I only know her name."

"Her name is Gepu Qi."

————————

"Outsiders have broken in!"

Before the old man in front of Li Miao could speak, someone behind him shouted loudly.

In an instant, there was a noise all around.

From the depressions in the stone walls all around, hundreds of shadows suddenly rushed out, surging toward this side densely.

Li Miao glanced at it, and there was everything in it.

There were people, tigers, pigs, wolves, and countless snakes, insects, rats, and ants. Several great witches were chanting, driving these Gu beasts and Gu insects toward Li Miao.

The few people in front of Li Miao were also great witches, and they chanted formulas one after another, countless Gu insects crawled out from all over their bodies, and in a short while, they covered the ground, raised their mouthparts, and bared their fangs at Li Miao one after another.

To be honest, it looked quite bluffing, if it were ordinary martial arts major sects, even if they came out in full force, they would be numb if they saw this scene.

But, for Li Miao, the threat was not as great as the five hundred Gu soldiers outside Tai'an City at that time.

In the final analysis, if witchcraft and Gu were really invincible, they wouldn't be trapped in this square inch of the Miao frontier.

Firstly, refining a Gu beast or Gu soldier that can rival a first-rate expert costs more time and resources than cultivating a first-rate expert, it's just that the quantity accumulated over many years is a bit bluffing; secondly, these things are not fast, their minds are unclear, and they only rely on their thick skin and Gu poison to suppress ordinary experts, but when they meet top experts, they can't catch up and can't defend, so they are of no use.

Against Li Miao... they can only pray that they won't be broken too thoroughly.

Li Miao smiled softly.

"Forget it, now that I speak, you don't think it has much weight."

"I'll show you two hands first, and then we'll talk."

After speaking, Li Miao turned over and jumped up, and then fell suddenly.

Boom!!!!

In an instant, the ground for several zhang around shattered, and flesh and blood flew.
