Chapter 156: Talk After Fighting
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, we die, we must leave a way for our descendants!"
"The daughter of 'that one' has brought several great witches and headed toward Shuntian Prefecture... This time, the Imperial Court will definitely 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 gritted his teeth and said.
"Why! What bullshit Miao King, what bullshit ancestor! Dead for hundreds of years, and still want us to be filial sons and grandsons, to pay for his life!"
"We were born naked, how did we inexplicably carry the debt! What kind of world! What kind of reason!"
"This bullshit witchcraft, passed around, it's really better to just abolish it!"
"Shut up!"
The old man shouted.
"Without witchcraft, what do we rely on to live!?"
"Drinking poison to quench thirst, at least we won't be thirsty to death for a while!"
Several people sighed one after another, and finally the old man made the final decision.
"That's it, we give our lives to him, just ask him to protect the descendants."
"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, hugging his arms and smiling.
"!!!"
"Yo, everyone, finished chatting?"
Li Miao waved his hand, revealing a kind smile, with a wisp of blood flowing down from his gloves.
"Finished chatting, come and chat with me."
————————
"Master, wait for me, my martial arts are not very good, I can't keep up with you!"
An Ziyang used his light-body technique, barely hanging behind Yong Yong Jie, already panting.
His martial arts were originally piled up by heavenly treasures, and his internal energy was limited compared to ordinary second-rate. Plus the hidden weapons all over his body, adding up to tens of pounds, it was even harder to endure the long journey.
Yong Yong Jie frowned when he heard this, and looked back 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 to it on weekdays to achieve something."
An Ziyang's kidney deficiency, Yong Yong Jie 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 with me?"
"Didn't I just coax his daughter for you? She's only a few years old, are you guarding against me? If you don't thank me, you're still deliberately making things difficult for me. When the time comes, I'll have to sue you in front of Lord Li!"
The two were not very satisfied with each other, just one on the face, one in the heart.
After Yong Yong Jie received Li Miao's message, he set off immediately and headed to the Miao territory. He didn't even ride a horse, using light-body technique to rush, day and night, tossing An Ziyang enough.
Right now, Yong Yong Jie had no intention of slowing down at all.
Seeing this, An Ziyang's eyes turned, and he found a topic, wanting to slow down Yong Yong Jie's speed.
"Master, before you became a monk, were you 'Pillar of the Heavens'?"
"Counting the days, the time when your reputation in the Jianghu took a turn for the worse coincides with Ling'er's age... so you suddenly started to collect all kinds of treasures in the Jianghu like crazy for her?"
Yong Yong Jie's footsteps paused, and after a while, he nodded.
"Yes."
An Ziyang realized.
"I often deal with the Tang Men, and I 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 traces of being triggered when I returned to the guest room at night."
"Little Ling'er... did she get any poison when she was young?"
Yong Yong Jie shook his head.
"No. This poison came from her mother."
"Miao people's Gu poison."
"In these few years, it was my master who used his own internal energy to suppress the Gu poison, so that Ling'er could grow up normally. My master passed the position to me, a large part of the reason is to give me his internal energy, so that I can save Ling'er. Otherwise, a monk who became a monk halfway like me, where am I worthy of this abbot position."
"It was on the way to the Miao territory 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 in pain 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, or why she left the Miao territory, why she suddenly disappeared, whether she is dead or alive now, I don't know."
Yong Yong Jie didn't stop, but a trace of sadness appeared in his eyes.
"In the end, I only know her name."
"Her name is Gupu 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 commotion all around.
From the depressions in the stone walls, hundreds of shadows 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 words, driving these Gu beasts and Gu insects toward Li Miao.
Several great witches in front of Li Miao were also chanting formulas, and countless Gu insects crawled out from all over their bodies, filling the ground in a moment, raising their mouthparts, and baring 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 scared 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 could really be invincible, it wouldn't be trapped in this square inch of the Miao territory.
First of all, 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 the years is a bit bluffing; secondly, these things are not fast, their minds are unclear, and they only rely on their rough skin and thick flesh and the characteristics of carrying Gu poison to suppress ordinary experts, but when they encounter 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.
"Alright, now that I speak, you don't feel how much weight it has."
"I'll show you two hands first, and then we'll talk."
With that, Li Miao turned and jumped up, and then fell suddenly.
*Boom!!! *
In an instant, the ground within a few feet collapsed, and flesh and blood flew.
