The poisonous path of the sick and reborn

Chiguo Imperial Palace, court hall.

A sneer sounded from the first place, and Emperor Chi's voice was low, "You mean that there is a strange disease in your country, and people who are sick will eat people?"

"It's absolutely true." Hearing the disbelief in the other party's mouth, the envoy of Yun Kingdom sweated profusely from his forehead, and spoke earnestly, "It has been half a year since the first case was discovered, and many cities and towns in our country have been occupied by those patients. I came here under the instruction of my emperor, and I want to borrow some elite soldiers from Chi Kingdom." Having said this, Yun Kingdom's envoy paused, closed his eyes, and gritted his teeth: "Borrow troops to attack our country... Lincheng."

Lincheng is located between Yunguo and Chiguo. Chiguo has been coveting this city since the founding of the country, but due to its good terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is the military center of Yunguo, the two countries have been in a stalemate for hundreds of years , and never really took it down.

Hearing these words, the smile on Ji Yan's face finally disappeared, and his sharp eyes fell on the face of the envoy of Yunguo.

The envoy of the Kingdom of Yun, who didn't have to kneel down, suddenly lost his legs and fell to the ground in an instant, not daring to take a breath, shaking like chaff all over his body.

After reading Yun Guo's national book, Ji Yan said slowly, "Since that's the case, I will send [-] troops, led by General Zuo, to Lincheng."

Although there were not many troops, but at least they could temporarily relieve the urgent need. The envoy of Yunguo heaved a sigh of relief, but forgot his identity for a while, and kowtowed to the superior repeatedly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"The envoys of Yun Kingdom don't need to perform such a big ceremony, I can't bear it alone." Ji Yan glanced at the courtiers standing respectfully under his eyes, "General Zuo, since the situation is urgent, let's set off tomorrow."

"Yes, I would like to obey the emperor's order." General Zuo was a burly man. Hearing Ji Yan's words, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, without any contempt for the emperor because he was young.

This emperor has only been on the throne for three years, and he has completely wiped out the old party in the previous dynasty. Which minister in the court did not know the emperor's method, so after hearing Ji Yan's order, no one raised it. No objection.

"Retire." Sweeping across the trembling courtiers below, Ji Yan curled his lips in boredom, and walked towards the inner palace with his sleeves twitched.

Different from the harem of general emperors, Ji Yan kicked out the group of women in the harem the day before he took office, and since then he has not conferred a concubine, so the harem has been vacant, and it is a rare and clean place.

After reading the letter of state brought by the envoy of Yun Kingdom several times, Ji Yan's eyes darkened, no matter what the other party said was true or not, this was a good opportunity to bring Lincheng under Chi Guo's command.

"I advise you not to send troops."

"Who?" Ji Yan focused his eyes and looked around, but he was the only one in the empty imperial garden, and even the hidden guards who were guarding around him all the time disappeared unknowingly, and his heart couldn't help but tremble. But he was still silent, "Didn't you say that cultivators should not interfere with ordinary affairs at will, and here is the royal family. Wouldn't your actions mess up the cause and effect?"

"That's right." The visitor appeared, nodded with a smile, his face somewhat similar to Ji Yan was full of approval, "Your name is Ji Yan?"

"Yes." Seeing the other party's appearance, Ji Yan was a little surprised. If he hadn't clearly known how many brothers he had, he might have admitted his mistake, "Who are you?"

"My name is Ji Yuan. According to my seniority, you should call me Grand Uncle." Ji Yuan was actually a little surprised. Facing Ji Yan, he actually had a feeling of looking in a mirror. The facial features of the two were almost exactly the same, but they lived relatively for a long time. The high-ranking Ji Yan and Ji Yuan appeared to be more gentle and harmless.

Ji Yan subconsciously looked at Ji Yuan's wrist, just in time to see the bracelet exposed by Ji Yuan, thinking that there was indeed a person in the royal genealogy who went to practice in Xianzong since childhood, believed Ji Yuan's words for six points, and bowed his hands in salute Said: "Uncle Taihuang."

"En." Ji Yuan smiled and nodded, his eyes fell on the bamboo slip in Ji Yan's hand, "Can you show it to me?"

Ji Yan nodded, thinking that it was nothing important, he reached out and handed the bamboo slip to Ji Yuan, but before Ji Yuan could get it, the bamboo slip disappeared from the two of them.

Ji Yuan was startled, and was overjoyed to see the person coming, "Junior Brother, Uncle Qingsu!"

"Senior brother, long time no see." Qin Si glanced across Ji Yan's face and landed on Ji Yuan, waved the bamboo slip in his hand to Ji Yuan, raised his eyebrows and said, "I've offended you."

"Where, it's too late for me to be happy to see my junior brother." Ji Yuan laughed.

Qin Si hastily scanned the content on the bamboo slips, looked at each other with Qing Su next to him, saw the solemnity in each other's eyes, and then threw it back into Ji Yuan's hands again, "Brother is also here to investigate the abyss of?"

"Indeed, seeing the seriousness of the situation, I was worried that something might happen to Chi country, so I came here first out of selfishness, but I never thought that it's only been half a year, and the walking corpses have already expanded to this extent." Ji Yuan smiled wryly, and pointed at Ji Yan to Qin Qin. Si introduced: "This is the current emperor of Chi Kingdom, Ji Yan." Then he introduced to Ji Yan: "These two are my junior brother and uncle, you can call them seniors."

"Yes, Uncle Taihuang." Ji Yan responded obediently, looked at the two masters and apprentices, his eyes paused on Qin Si's face, and then he bowed his hands and saluted, "I have seen the two seniors."

"You don't have to be polite."

"Thank you, senior." Although he still had doubts about several people, Ji Yan was exceptionally keen when it came to state affairs, and turned to look at Ji Yuan, "Uncle Taihuang, the walking corpse you mentioned is the one mentioned in Yun Guoxin's letter." Is it a strange disease? You just said that it is best not to send troops, why?"

"Because the sents are all sent to death." Before Ji Yuan opened his mouth, Qin Si said first, "The disease is extremely contagious, even if you just approach those areas, you will also be contaminated by demonic energy."

After a moment of silence, Ji Yan lowered his eyes and said, "I see, thank you senior."

Just like when they arrived suddenly, several people disappeared very quickly. Ji Yan held a few pieces of jade slips sent by Ji Yuan in his hand, and stood silently for a while, but he did not order the troops to withdraw. Attack Lincheng.

"It seems that your prestige is not enough, the emperor still sent troops." Looking at the mighty army at the foot of the mountain below, Qin Si Chao Jiyuan teased, "Do you want to stop it?"

"No need." Ji Yuan said with a good-tempered smile, looking at the soldiers and horses with deep eyes, "After all, he is an emperor, so he should not believe me, so... I am very glad that I left there."

Qing Su said: "Let's go."

Wangjia Village is empty, the once peaceful village has been ruined like this, the originally clear stream has long since dried up, and the nearby stretching green hills have been infested by the evil energy, and all of them have fallen, only a few dead branches remain to prove that there was once a over a mountain.

In just half a year, the abyss has expanded several times. As a few people approach, you can see the substantial black air emanating from the abyss with the naked eye. The formation method has already collapsed.

"It doesn't make sense." Looking at the magic circle torn apart by the abyss, Ji Yuan was startled, "At that time, I saw practitioners of various sects erecting the magic formation with my own eyes. At that time, the direction of the abyss could never be this direction."

"En." Qin Si nodded. If it followed the direction at that time, this abyss should have extended straight to the territory of Chi Country, but now it has turned a corner and tore apart the suppression formation established by the cultivators. Then he headed towards Yunguo again.

Qingsu stood on the shattered magic circle, and after a while, said: "Someone did it on purpose."

Ji Yuan asked: "Then is he trying to destroy the magic circle or save the country?"

Without answering Ji Yuan's question, Qingsu frowned, squeezed a few hand tricks, and dispelled the demonic energy that pounced on several people, saying: "Go and have a look around."

Ji Yuan was startled, his face flushed suddenly, knowing that he had asked a stupid question, he glanced at Qin Si, and was relieved to find that the other party didn't pay attention to this side.

Qing Lan routinely stood beside Qi Yao's bed, used her true energy to reorganize the meridians of her whole body, and then looked at her puzzled.

From his previous life to the present, he has been steeped in medicine for thousands of years, so it is impossible for him to miss it. However, the fact is that Qi Yao has not woken up since she fell into a coma half a year ago. Needless to say, she must be unwilling to wake up.

"If you don't wake up again, I'll skin that kid who came outside to worship the teacher." Qinglan snorted coldly, thinking of the kid who was brought to Qingjue Peak by an inner disciple the day before yesterday, Qinglan couldn't beat her up Come on, if you dare, this has become a shelter.

After leaving these words, seeing that Qi Yao still didn't respond, Qing Lan sighed, turned and left the cave.

Seeing Qing Lan come out, Xiao Yi who had been guarding the door hurriedly saluted him, "Elder Qing Lan."

"Yeah." Qing Lan nodded, "Follow me to see the master."

Xiao Yi's eyes lit up, and he quickly replied, "Yes."

Just as Qinglan took out the flying magic weapon, she paused for a moment, put it back, and smiled at Xiao Yi: "There's no need to go."

Xiao Yi saw a blue light getting closer and closer from the far horizon, and it landed in front of them after a while. When he took a closer look, he turned out to be a middle-aged man with a handsome appearance and a beard. After one glance, he quickly lowered his head. Although he has never left Wangjia Village since childhood, he has heard from many people that cultivators are a group of proud people.

Especially the higher the cultivation level, the more they treat mortals as ants.When he met Qin Si and the others, he was not afraid of tigers even as a newborn calf, but in the past six months, he has met many people on the road, including many cultivators. After seeing more, he began to be afraid.

But this is only temporary, Xiao Yi clenched his fists tightly, one day, he will stand above everyone.

Qingwei has been overwhelmed by various things in the past six months. Today, she finally took some free time to visit Qi Yao, but she saw a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy standing next to Qinglan. He couldn't help but look a few more times before asking Qinglan, "Who is this?"

"His name is Xiao Yi, and he came to the Qingling Immortal Sect to pay homage to his teacher and cultivate immortality. I saw that he has good aptitude, so I stayed." Qing Lan snorted inwardly, but did not say anything about Qing Su, and immediately raised her eyebrows , said: "Ice spirit root is extremely rare, why not send him to Feiwu Peak to be a companion for my nephew."
