They had no choice but to quickly tie him up with strong ropes.

"Ah!" Hu Qing struggled and screamed wildly, his voice echoing throughout the cave.

Finally, they tied him to a huge rock cave, and only when they saw that he could not move did they breathe a sigh of relief.

"Husband!" Xie Meng saw Hu Qing's appearance, her face was anxious and painful, tears streaming down her face, but she could only watch.

Chen Jing was also a little at a loss at this time, standing aside anxiously, because there was no medicine to detoxify now, and there were only some leftover herbs that could replenish qi and blood and clear veins, which were completely useless.

The people from the Bai Shi Sect had gloomy expressions on their faces as they watched Hu Qing screaming and struggling so wildly. They tried to use acupuncture to stabilize his condition, but the effect wasn't very good, but it did calm him down a bit. After the acupuncture, he stopped screaming and struggling, only breathing heavily, and still looked very painful.

Acupuncture can only provide temporary relief, but if used too much, the effect will gradually decrease, so medication is still necessary.

At this moment, Hu Qing was in a semi-conscious state. He knew that it was not okay to eat raw meat, but he could not control his desire to eat. He desperately wanted to eat meat and drink blood!

He had just tried his best to control himself and not hurt them. This was the limit of what he could do.

"In this case, we still need to take medication as soon as possible, otherwise it will be dangerous." He Biao gave advice to Xie Meng and the others.

Xie Meng turned around, looked at He Biao, and said, "Please help me find some medicinal herbs. I will reward you handsomely."

She knew in her heart that they had done their best to achieve what they had now, but if they were asked to find medicine, they would not be able to do it without compensation. No one would work for free, especially in the current situation where it was difficult to move forward.

"Thank you, Senior. We also want to help, but these herbs are hard to find, and we are wanted by the government. If we go out to look for them, I'm afraid..."

He Biao looked embarrassed, and the others watched silently without saying a word.

What he said was indeed true. There were no herbs to remove corpse poison in the nearby mountains, but some could be found in the big pharmacies in the city.

But they are all wanted criminals now, and going into the city is tantamount to walking into a trap, which is extremely risky.

Although the officers' skills were not very good, they were unable to cope with the large numbers of them, not to mention that they were on someone else's territory.

What people fear the most are the black-clad guards of the Imperial Master, whose skills are much better than theirs.

They are disciples of the immortal sect, and it is easy for them to make money. There is no need to take risks for her small reward.

Xie Meng's face turned grim, and he had no choice but to increase the reward. "A thousand-year-old blood ganoderma plus a reward of five hundred gold, how about that?"

Although the sect was raided, the private treasury she kept outside was still intact. Now that her life was at stake, she had no choice but to bleed heavily.

When the people from Baishi Sect heard this, they looked a little surprised and a little tempted. To be honest, if this reward were given on an ordinary day, it would definitely be unprecedentedly high.

A thousand-year-old blood Ganoderma lucidum is not easy to find, let alone one that costs five hundred gold.

Before, when the government issued a wanted notice for Si He, the reward was five hundred gold. At that time, all the disciples of Bai Shi Sect were tempted and went out to look for him in order to get the high reward.

And it was precisely because of this that this group of people did not stay in the sect that they escaped this disaster.

However, although they were very tempted by Xie Meng's reward, no one said anything.

After all, the risk is too great, and there are so many of them. If the reward is divided equally, each of them will not get much. In comparison, their own lives are naturally more important.

"This..." He Biao still looked very embarrassed.

Seeing them like this, Xie Meng's face turned pale. She had already invested a lot of money, but these people were still not satisfied!

She was filled with rage, but she suppressed it. After a while, she said, "This is all I have. After all, everything in the sect was confiscated by the government."

Thinking of this, she felt so heartbroken that she almost bled. These damn officials were too cruel!

She took a deep breath, calming the raging anger in her heart, and continued, "Also, I can tell you a secret about the elixir of immortality."

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Bai Shi Sect opened their eyes wide in surprise, and even Chen Jing looked at Xie Meng in disbelief.

"Really?" He Biao stared at her intently, his eyes full of inquiry and suspicion.

Xie Meng snorted coldly, "Absolutely true!"

"Regarding the elixir of immortality, where did Senior Xie get the secret?"

He Biao had heard of the elixir of immortality before, but he didn't think such a thing really existed. After all, immortality was too illusory and vague. It was something that only existed in legends. However, he still couldn't help but ask one more question.

Xie Meng said proudly, "My Taiyi Sect has a profound foundation, but this secret is too significant and will bring disaster, so only the successive sect leaders know it. However, refining the elixir of immortality requires many rare medicinal herbs, and the successive sect leaders have been searching for them diligently. A few days ago, we had almost gathered all these herbs, but they were stolen by the thief Ning Ji!"

At this point, her face was filled with anger. She took a deep breath and continued, "And that damned Imperial Master attacked the Taiyi Sect just because of this, offering a huge reward for the Ning Ji couple!"

He Biao narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at Xie Meng, trying to judge the truthfulness of her words.

"Xie Xiansheng, isn't the time you mentioned a bit wrong? As far as we know, it was more than half a month after the government issued a wanted notice for them that Ning Ji came to Taiyi Sect to steal the medicine, and then the government launched a siege on Taiyi Sect."

After he asked about the key point of the matter, his fellow disciples echoed him, "Exactly. The wanted poster from the beginning said those two were notorious thieves. They stole the Imperial Master's things, which is why the government launched such a massive search for them. As for the subsequent theft of the Taiyi Sect's medicine storehouse, it was said that it was to treat that woman's illness. That has nothing to do with the elixir of immortality, right?"

Xie Meng felt a little guilty. After all, these were all her fabrications. How would she know anything about the elixir of immortality? She just wanted to use them to find the medicine and deal with Ning Ji at the same time, killing two birds with one stone.

But lies made up on the spur of the moment always have loopholes.

However, although she felt guilty, she didn't show it on her face. She said confidently, "That woman had come to Taiyi Sect to steal medicine once before, but she leaked the news, which led to the capture of the National Master, and thus implicated Taiyi Sect and other sects!"

Although what she said sounded like the truth, it still didn't dispel He Biao's doubts. He continued, "That woman named Si He is said to be the daughter of the county magistrate of Fuqing City. Fuqing City and Lingcheng are far apart and have no connection. How did she know such a secret as the elixir of immortality? And how could a girl like her steal the medicine storehouse of Taiyi Sect alone? Although she is agile, the defense of Taiyi Sect can't be that poor, right?"

He asked in detail, like peeling off layers of silk.
