Chapter 1008

Li Ming was about to speak when he heard this, but Lin Rou, who was originally unconscious, suddenly coughed and slowly woke up. For a moment, the attention of the three people was attracted to her. Seeing this, Gu Song could only sigh imperceptibly.

Lin Rou frowned, then opened her eyes, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, and then Li Tianyun stepped forward, took her hand, and said with deep affection.

"Rou Rou, how are you? Are you feeling better?"

"Brother Tianyun? Is it really you? Am I dreaming?" After a brief moment of confusion, Lin Rou recognized her childhood sweetheart.

However, the borrowed conversation was really funny to Li Ming. He felt like he had accidentally entered a romance theater. After a wry smile, he pulled Gusong out of the carriage, leaving the space for the two of them.

The two men sat outside the carriage, asked the coachman to get off, and drove the carriage themselves. Taking this opportunity, Gu Song asked again.

"I wonder what the secrets of your insect-raising technique are."

Li Ming smiled and said, "If you want to know, it's not difficult. However, after practicing this method, the seven emotions and six desires will be aroused at any time. If the practitioner's heart is not strong enough, they will be controlled by this method and become slaves to the insects. So I have to ask you first, what is your purpose in being so interested in this method?"

Gu Song couldn't help but chuckle bitterly and said, "As you can see, my foundation in Taoism has been damaged. It was because I misjudged people back then and mistakenly believed the words of a demonic villain. He secretly harmed me and poisoned me. Although I was rescued later, I am still troubled by the poison. Not only has my cultivation not improved at all, but even my appearance has reverted to youth."

"Oh? So fellow Taoist was poisoned." Li Ming nodded thoughtfully and then asked.

"Your situation reminds me of a strange poison from the Western Demonic Cult, Pan Tian Men. It's called the Nine Wonders Resurrection Powder. It sounds like a holy medicine for healing wounds, but in fact, it also has the miraculous effect of repairing the body. However, if one does not obtain the Pan Tian Men's secret method, the medicinal power will turn into a poison, ultimately making a person one year younger per day, rejuvenating the body until it turns into essence and disappears. I wonder if you were infected with this poison?"

Gusong sighed, nodded, then shook his head, with a look of reminiscence on his face. After a while, he spoke.

"If it were this poison, I would have been reincarnated long ago. After all, it would be too easy for the Nine Wonders Resurrection Powder to deal with me. To be honest, my life was hanging by a thread back then. Cui Niang had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure, but things are much more complicated than we imagined. Oh, I was too proud at the time, and this is how I ended up."

Li Ming raised his eyebrows and shook his head in his heart.

"It's probably the clichéd story of the righteous genius and the demonic girl. It's been written so many times, but this kind of incident happens the most."

However, Gusong quickly calmed down and said softly, "Just now, I saw you treating Miss Lin, so I wanted to ask, will this method work for me?"

"This..." Li Ming pondered and did not answer immediately.

Gusong also shook his head and laughed, saying, "I am asking too much, and I am being presumptuous."

But there was inevitably a sense of sigh in his voice, and looking at his short stature, it was even more regrettable.

"What are you talking about, fellow Daoist? We have been friends for life and death all along the way. How could I be stingy with my efforts? Since it is your business, Brother Gusong, I will do my best! But..." Li Ming paused for a moment when he said this.

"I'm just worried that you might be disappointed. After all, even if the remaining poison can be cleared, your foundation and your already damaged body will be difficult to recover."

Gu Song smiled and said, "It's okay, I know that, but I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle next. If I can dissolve this poison, I will have fewer concerns when I take action, so as not to hold you back!" "Okay!" Li Ming nodded and said, "But if you are not in a hurry, let's wait until we get to the rest area to remove the poison for you."

"Hahaha, it's been more than two hundred years, why am I still so anxious? By the way, brother Wuxin, does removing poison from people like this have no effect on your body?" Gusong asked back.

"It's okay." Li Ming smiled and shook his head. "I have my own way to resolve it, don't worry."

Seeing Li Ming so confident, Gusong did not ask too many questions. The two of them just sat quietly in front of the car and slowly moved forward with the caravan.

At the same time, the man and woman in the carriage finished reminiscing about the past, and Li Tianyun then started talking about business.

"Rou Rou, tell me exactly how you were harmed by the Lei family. I will definitely seek justice for you!!!"

After hearing this, Lin Rou's tears, which had stopped flowing, began to flow again, and she spoke with red eyes.

"Back then, our Qingxia Valley encountered a powerful enemy, and the Sect Master ordered the disciples to be dismissed. However, my master has been so kind to me, so naturally, I must live and die with the sect. That day..."

When she said this, obvious fear flashed in her eyes and her body shrank involuntarily.

Seeing this, Li Tianyun's eyes were also full of heartache. He couldn't help but stepped forward and gently squeezed Lin Rou's hands, comforting her: "It's okay, it's okay, Rourou, I'm here."

Lin Rou paused before continuing, "The attackers were three men in black. Our sect's mountain protection formation was completely ineffective; they ripped it apart. Our sect leader and elders all died fighting. I was knocked unconscious by the aftermath of the battle. When I regained consciousness, Lei Yu was by my side, making nice claims about help being too late. I didn't suspect anything, and later joined him in investigating the origins of the three men in black."

Lin Rou spoke slowly like this, while Li Tianyun's expression was extremely solemn. He had already collected most of the information and had some guesses in his mind, so he asked the question that concerned him most.

"So why did you marry him?"

Hearing this, a blush flashed across Lin Rou's face.

"I saw that he worked hard for me wholeheartedly, and I had some intentions, but who knew that his evil ambitions would be exposed later, and the mastermind behind the scenes was also connected to him! He wanted to steal our secret techniques, and later the plan was exposed. He also used poison to control me and wanted to use my skills to help him practice."

Li Tianyun was furious and slammed the window and shouted.

"The hypocritical Lei family actually did such a thing behind my back. How could I tolerate it? Once I rescue my parents, I will definitely wipe out the Lei family and wash away your humiliation!!!"

Lin Rou shook her head and said, "The Lei family is so powerful and wealthy. We are so weak and alone. How can we compete with them?"

Only then did Li Tianyun smile and say, "Don't be afraid. Although your sect has been destroyed, I am not someone to be bullied. Once the matter is resolved, I will naturally reveal my true identity."
