Martial Arts: After ten years of sword-drawing, the Sword God must bow his head when he sees me

Chapter 85: Poisoning and Detoxification

Yu Daying, who was lying on the chair, had a changed expression and quickly turned his head to look in the direction Zhang Sanfeng was looking.

Then, from the sight of Yu Daying and Zhang Sanfeng, several figures jumped over the corner of the courtyard and entered the courtyard.

When looking at Shen Pingan and others standing in the courtyard, Zhang Sanfeng, who had originally been a little wary, now had a look of surprise in his eyes.

Shen Qingfeng, who was standing by, stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Shen Qingfeng greets Master."

Zhang Sanfeng nodded and raised his hand.

After Shen Qingfeng stood up straight, Shen Pingan politely greeted him: "Master Zhang."

Zhang Sanfeng nodded at first, then looked puzzled and said, "You just left this afternoon and now you've secretly returned to Wudang late at night. I wonder what's going on, little friend Shen?"

Shen Ping'an smiled and did not rush to respond to Zhang Sanfeng. Instead, he set his eyes on Yu Daying.

His eyes fell on Yu Daying's dark eye bags with a hint of red, and a few streaks of red on his cheekbones, and Shen Pingan understood.

"Qingfeng, talk to Master Zhang!"

After saying that, Shen Ping'an walked slowly to Yu Daying's side. As he raised his left hand slightly, a burst of energy pulled up Yu Daying's paralyzed right hand.

When he placed three fingers on Yu Daying's wrist and felt his pulse, Shen Pingan suddenly understood: "No wonder!"

At the same time, from Shen Qingfeng's words, Zhang Sanfeng also knew the reason why Shen Ping'an returned to Wudang at this moment.

Almost immediately after Shen Qingfeng finished speaking, Zhang Sanfeng had already mobilized the true energy in his body.

But as the true energy flowed through the eight extraordinary meridians, Zhang Sanfeng still could not feel anything unusual in his body.

At this moment, Shen Ping'an's voice slowly rang out: "Nine Flowers and Seven Poisons Corruption Powder is special. If you are not familiar with this poison, it will be difficult to detect it."

"Using ordinary Qi circulation methods, it is difficult to detect. Master Zhang can gather his Qi along the Jiquan, Shaohai, Neiguan and other acupoints and move it to the Xinshu acupoint, and go back and forth three times."

As he spoke, Shen Pingan let go of Yu Daying's hand, and a soft force burst out from Shen Pingan's hand, supporting Yu Daying's hand and slowly dropping it onto the bamboo chair.

Zhang Sanfeng quickly thought about the impact of the true qi circulating through these acupoints. After confirming that there was no problem, he mobilized the true qi again and circulated it according to Shen Ping'an's instructions.

A moment later, as the true energy in his body circulated for the third time, Zhang Sanfeng suddenly felt a sharp pain from where the true energy had just flowed, causing Zhang Sanfeng to stagger, and his face and lips quickly turned black and blue.

But as Zhang Sanfeng's true energy flowed, the dark spots finally disappeared.

Not only that, Zhang Sanfeng could clearly feel that when the true qi was restored, it seemed as if something was clinging to his acupuncture points and meridians like a tarsal plaster.

When Shen Qingfeng was explaining the whole story just now, he did not deliberately suppress his voice, so Yu Daying who was standing beside him could hear it clearly.

Afterwards, Yu Daying's gaze was always on Zhang Sanfeng.

Seeing Zhang Sanfeng's strange behavior at this time, how could he not understand that things were really as Shen Pingan said?
He immediately said in panic, "Master has profound skills and has lived in Wudang for many years, how could he be poisoned?"

Hearing this, Shen Pingan said softly: "Because the poisoner first poisoned Yu Daxia."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of several people in the courtyard changed.

Even Yu Daying was stunned.

After a moment, Yu Dayan came to his senses and exclaimed, "You mean, the person who poisoned me first, and then used me as a medium to poison Master?"

"Not bad!" Shen Pingan nodded.

"Everyone in Wudang knows that Hero Yu had his limbs crippled ten years ago. He can no longer handle Wudang affairs like others, so he can only stay by Master Zhang's side."

"All in all, Master Yu should be the person who has the most contact with Master Zhang in Wudang."

"And if the Nine Flowers and Seven Poisons Corruption Powder is directly applied to Master Zhang, he will definitely notice it."

"But if the poison is ground into powder and applied to Master Yu, Master Zhang, who has been in contact with Master Yu for a long time, will accumulate more and more toxins in his body over time. And because the amount of toxins inhaled each time is small, it will be difficult for Master Zhang to detect it."

"Just like now, Master Yu is carrying the toxins of the Nine Flowers and Seven Poisons Powder. Living in the same courtyard with Master Yu, Master Zhang will inhale a certain amount of toxins every time he breathes."

Listening to Shen Ping'an's words, Qu Feiyan and Shen Qingshan beside them subconsciously held their breath.

Even Yan Shisan is the same.

Yu Dayan's throat was dry as he spoke, "According to what you said, this Nine Flowers and Seven Poisons Powder is enough to make even Master unable to withstand it. If the poisoner had put the poison on me, why haven't I been poisoned yet?"

Shen Pingan chuckled: "If you are poisoned and detoxifying at the same time, how can there be a reaction to the poison?"

Just now, when Shen Ping'an looked at Yu Daying's face, he found that although Yu Daying was carrying the poison of Nine Flowers and Seven Poisons, his face showed that Yu Daying was not seriously poisoned.

After taking Yu Dayan's pulse, he confirmed that there was a small amount of medicinal power in Yu Dayan's body that was dissolving the toxins in his body.

Yu Daying is not stupid. After listening to Shen Ping'an's words, how could he not know what "being poisoned and detoxifying at the same time" means.

He immediately growled, "Who on earth is it that has such a vicious intention?"

Without paying attention to Yu Daying's reaction, Shen Pingan lightly flicked his long sleeves, and some powder flew towards Yu Daying.

When the powder fell on Yu Daying, he reached into his arms and took out a three-inch porcelain bottle to gesture.

Qu Feiyan, who was standing by, immediately took the porcelain bottle and handed it to Zhang Sanfeng.

After Zhang Sanfeng took the porcelain bottle, Shen Pingan said softly: "This medicinal wine can help Master Zhang dissolve the poison of the Nine Flowers and Seven Poisons Corruption Powder in his body, and the remaining medicinal effect is enough to prevent him from having to worry about the Nine Flowers and Seven Poisons Corruption Powder growing again in the next three days."

Zhang Sanfeng looked at Shen Ping'an, then opened the porcelain bottle and drank the medicinal wine inside.

As the medicinal wine entered his body, the true energy in Zhang Sanfeng's body surged rapidly to refine the medicinal effects of the wine.

After a hundred breaths, Zhang Sanfeng suddenly felt as if his body had come into contact with some invisible shackles, and suddenly became lighter.

"I didn't expect that at my age, I would still fall for this poison and not even notice anything wrong in my body." After sighing, Zhang Sanfeng looked down at the porcelain bottle in his hand.

"It's mellow and fragrant, with a long aftertaste. It also has such a detoxifying effect. My friend, this wine must be worth a lot of money."

Shen Pingan laughed and said, "Wine is meant to be drunk. If it's left unused, what's the difference between it and a stone on the roadside?"

Zhang Sanfeng smiled and said, "My friend, you are quite open-minded!"

Afterwards, Zhang Sanfeng invited Shen Pingan and others into the room and took the initiative to make a pot of tea for them.

After Shen Pingan and Yan Shisan each had two cups of steaming hot tea in front of them, Zhang Sanfeng said, "I never thought that at such a young age, you are not only a master of swordsmanship, but also have such extraordinary attainments in medicine. It is truly amazing."

Shen Pingan responded: "The world of martial arts is dangerous, and having more preventive measures can also make you feel more at ease."

Zhang Sanfeng nodded: "Poison is insidious and hard to guard against. It's right to be careful."

Zhang Sanfeng changed the subject and said, "After you leave, my friend will secretly return to Wudang to help. Do you have any other plans?"

Shen Pingan said truthfully: "I can't hide it from Master Zhang. He does have some ideas."

Zhang Sanfeng smiled and said, "I'd like to hear the details."

Shen Pingan said slowly, "Master Zhang, who do you think is the mastermind behind this incident?"

Zhang Sanfeng thought about it, then shook his head and said, "This is also what I want to know."

"It seems that Master Zhang couldn't imagine who in the Ming Dynasty would take action against the Wudang Sect." Shen Ping'an sighed softly.

Who is Zhang Sanfeng? After hearing Shen Pingan's words, he immediately understood what Shen Pingan meant.

"Master Shen, are you saying that this time it wasn't the Ming Empire's forces that were responsible?"

Shen Pingan said softly: "I don't know, but in my opinion, it is not impossible."

The Wudang Sect has enjoyed an excellent reputation over the years under the management of Zhang Sanfeng and Song Yuanqiao.

For those evil cults in the martial arts world, they would rather offend Northern Shaolin than rashly provoke the Wudang Sect.

This is because the strength of Northern Shaolin is not due to one person, but the foundation accumulated over thousands of years.

The strength of the Wudang Sect comes from the presence of Zhang Sanfeng, the number one warrior in the Ming Dynasty.

Over the past few decades, Zhang Sanfeng has faded, but he is not dead.

The cult members were also afraid that if they really pushed Wudang too close, with Zhang Sanfeng's current strength, he would have to fight against the evil spirits again.

Therefore, the famous and upright sects would not take the initiative to provoke the Wudang Sect.

Even those evil cults with bad reputations in the underworld dared not to offend Hu Xu.

If you really want to count, the only competitor of Wudang Sect now is the top force Northern Shaolin.

But even if the people of Northern Shaolin were dissatisfied with Wudang being on equal footing with them, they would not go so far as to secretly poison Zhang Sanfeng.

Even Zhang Sanfeng found it difficult to guess the identity of the person behind the secret plot.

Previously, Shen Ping'an thought that the person behind the plan was the Qinglong Society.

But after discovering a few days ago that Gongzi Yu was actually coming for him, not the Wudang Sect, he suppressed this idea.

There was no one in the Ming Dynasty targeting the Wudang Sect. After much thought, Shen Pingan could only expand the scope of his speculation to the other four countries.

Zhang Sanfeng frowned slightly.

"According to what you said, what is the other party's purpose in deliberately dealing with me?"

Shen Pingan shook his head and said, "We know too little at the moment. Although I have some guesses in my mind, I can't be sure which situation it is."

After a pause, Shen Pingan changed the subject and said, "However, generally speaking, when the person behind the scenes shows up, there are only two possible scenarios for Master Zhang."

"One is to take direct action, aiming to eliminate Master Zhang and then destroy Wudang."

"The other is to use the poison in Master Zhang's body to control Master Zhang and Wudang."

Zhang Sanfeng asked, "What do you want me to do?"

It is said that people become more cunning as they grow older.

Faced with Zhang Sanfeng's questions, Shen Pingan couldn't help but sigh at Zhang Sanfeng's quick reaction. He actually guessed his intention so quickly.

In response, Shen Pingan said: "It's nothing. If it's the first case, it's simple. Just capture him and interrogate him."

"If it's the second case, I'd have to trouble Master Zhang to act out a scene with me."

Zhang Sanfeng pondered for a moment, and finally looked at Shen Pingan meaningfully.

"Rumor has it that the Shen family was able to produce a sword prodigy like you, young friend. It must be because the Shen family's ancestral tombs are on fire."

"I didn't take it seriously before, but now I think it makes some sense."

"As long as you are here, the Shen family will be as stable as Mount Tai."

Shen Pingan smiled and said, "Master Zhang, you are too kind."

However, at this moment, as if he had noticed something, Zhang Sanfeng suddenly waved his sleeves.

As the energy burst out, the door of the house that was originally open was instantly closed.
