Chapter 192 Return the favor
As they were talking, another phoenix carriage came speeding over and arrived at the Yingke Peak in a blink of an eye.
A few people turned around and saw Ye Xingci getting out of the car.
Lu Shaoling thought, no way? They just came back and Junior Brother Ye chased after them? How much does he care about Junior Sister Jiang?
Jiang Lisheng shamelessly thought that Ye Xingci was chasing her because he got the news that she did not bathe in the Yinling Spring. She looked past him and saw Zhong Yuyuan and two Taiyi disciples getting off the car behind him. The two disciples were carrying a stretcher with a person lying on it. She looked puzzled.
Ye Xingci walked closer, bowed, and greeted him calmly, "Uncle Yu." Then he said to Jiang Lisheng in a normal tone, "Junior Sister Jiang." He also greeted Lu Shaoling and Xi Jili, "Senior Brother Lu, Junior Brother Xi."
Yu nodded calmly, "Nephew Ye, Senior Brother Zhong, what are you doing..."
Ye Xingci explained his purpose, "This disciple returned to the mountain today. Not long ago, he collapsed in front of the mountain gate and is now dying. The sect's doctors are helpless for the time being, so I brought him here to ask Uncle Chu of Qingxu to take a look."
Yu Congrong suddenly realized, "Then hurry up and go call Senior Brother Chu."
Since human life was at stake, naturally, everyone didn't exchange pleasantries. A few of them hurried together to look for Chu Bitumen.
Chu Bitumen also heard the noise outside and came out of the room. Seeing a group of people carrying a person, he was also puzzled, "What is this..."
Ye Xingci bowed and repeated his purpose to Chu Asphalt.
Chu Bitumen immediately stepped forward, checked it, frowned, and said after a moment: "This requires Zhu Yu grass."
Ye Xingci pursed his lips and said, "Besides the Zhuyu Grass, may I ask Uncle Chu, are there any other spiritual plants or elixirs that can save his life?"
Chu Bitumen thought, "The Immortal Grass will also work."
Ye Xingci stopped talking altogether.
These two kinds of grass, whether it is Zhuyu grass or Immortal grass, are rare and precious grasses, and are hard to find. Taiyi has Zhuyu grass, but not Immortal grass. Legend has it that there is in Qishan Secret Realm, but this time in Qishan Secret Realm, most of the disciples died and no one got the Immortal Grass.
Chu Bitumen took out a pill from his storage ring and stuffed it into the disciple's mouth. "This pill of mine can ensure that he can live one more day. We still need to get these two kinds of real herbs as soon as possible to save his life."
Ye Xingci could only say: "Thank you, Uncle Chu."
He had a worried look on his face, but he was not afraid to tell the truth to them, "There is indeed a Zhuyu grass in the sect, but this grass is precious and hard to come by. Master is in seclusion, and I can't make this decision alone."
Everyone looked at him when they heard this.
Ye Xingci smiled bitterly, "I would like to give it to this junior brother, but the uncles disagree..."
Zhong Yuyuan took over the conversation, "Zhu Yu grass is hard to come by. The sect finally managed to grow this one, so it is naturally for the genius disciple to improve his cultivation and overcome the tribulation. This disciple has little potential, so no one agrees. Only Xing Ci wants to use it..."
Everyone instantly looked up to Ye Xingci. After all, the Zhuyu grass was indeed rare and hard to come by. Good grass should be used on the blade, so it was understandable not to give it to this disciple who didn't have much potential. But he agreed. After all, according to Zhong Yuyuan's statement, giving it to the sect's talented disciples as a backup meant, in other words, leaving it for him to use.
“But Master has always cherished every disciple of the sect, how could he stand by and watch someone die without helping?” Ye Xingci said, “How could you be so cold and inhumane after joining our sect? Although the Zhuyu grass is precious and hard to find, it is not impossible to find it. But human life is only one…”
Yu Congrong said: "That makes sense."
She wondered what would happen if Kunlun was faced with this situation? If it was Qinglan, with his temper, he would have given it to his disciples long ago, even if others objected. When the things were used up, no matter how much people disagreed, they would shut up.
After this comparison, it was not that she was on the side of her own family, but that she agreed more with Wei Qinglan's decisiveness.
Ye Xingci ordered two disciples to lift the stretcher back onto the Luan Cart, and thanked Chu Bitumen again, "Thank you for the elixir, Uncle Chu. Your elixir may cost ten thousand gold coins. I will order Zhidu Hall to send spirit stones to Uncle Chu later." Chu Bitumen waved his hand to refuse, "It's just a elixir. There are so many of us disturbing Taiyi. How can we compare the elixir spirit stones? Nephew Ye, there is no need to settle the accounts like this. If we really want to settle the accounts, don't we have to offer you spirit stones as well?"
Ye Xingci heard this and said, "Uncle Chu is right. I was ignorant. Thank you Uncle Chu. I will take my leave with you now."
Just as he was about to leave, Jiang Lisheng suddenly remembered that there were so many of them and they owed Taiyi such a big favor. Two of their uncles had borrowed Taiyi's Spirit Building Pool. If they returned the favor, wouldn't it be easy for them to stay there? So, she called Ye Xingci, "Brother Ye, wait a moment. I have something. Let's see if it works for this brother."
Ye Xingci stopped in confusion.
"Wait a moment." Jiang Lisheng pulled Shan Gao's ear, "Come with me into the house."
Shan Gao is her spiritual pet. Sometimes, with just a glance from her, Shan Gao would understand what she was going to do and immediately follow her into the house.
The door was closed, and Shan Gao waved his big claws to set up a barrier.
Jiang Lisheng thought it was quite clever. It was best if no one knew that the immortal grass was planted in her spiritual palace. Seeing that it had set up a barrier, she asked, "Can you break off a piece of the immortal grass and give it to that disciple to eat?"
She still couldn't bear to give all of them away, so she decided to just break off a piece. That should be okay, right?
Shan Gao said: "Of course I can break it, but are you sure that half a dead branch will work?"
"Let's give it a try. Anyway, this thing is called immortal grass. If we break off a piece of it, it won't die completely, right?" Jiang Li said, "Besides, it grows in my spiritual palace. Who knows how many years it will grow. It's still unclear whether it can be saved. Let's use half of it first."
"Okay." Shan Gao was a beast, and since the master said so, it had nothing to say. Its big claws hooked into her soul and quickly found the dead branch. It was the same as when it was buried. It unceremoniously broke off the exposed part and quickly retreated.
Jiang Lisheng almost fainted from the pain of its rough movements. It was as if a dead branch was growing in her soul. In an instant, her whole face turned pale, her body swayed, and she almost fell down.
Shan Gao held a half-dead branch in one paw and supported her with the other paw, saying, "You are too weak."
Jiang Lisheng was almost mad, "Get lost."
Shan Gao shut up immediately.
Jiang Li slowed down his voice for a while, snatched the dead branch, put it in a box, rubbed his face vigorously until it turned a little red, then walked out of the room with the branch.
Everyone was waiting for her in the yard, and when they saw her come out, they all looked at her.
Jiang Lisheng handed the box to Ye Xingci, "This contains a piece of immortal grass. When I was a kid, I was ignorant and burned the immortal grass that my master raised to death. My master asked me to revive it, but I have never been able to do so. However, it is said that this thing is called immortal grass because even if it becomes a dead branch, it can be revived by watering it with spiritual power over the years. It's just that I don't have the patience, so I have kept it in my hands. Now that this junior brother wants to save his life, why not give it a try."
Chu Asphalt took a breath and almost lost his composure, "You and the Sect Master are just fooling around! Why don't you give me this immortal grass?"
He didn't even know that the sect leader once raised an immortal grass.
Jiang Lisheng took a step back and said quickly, "Uncle Chu, calm down."
How could Chu Bitumen stay calm? His hands were shaking with anger.
Jiang Lisheng immediately said: "Think about Uncle Hua, she is still soaking in the Spirit Building Pond."
What this means is that even if we have a living one, we have to take it out now. Taiyi is reluctant to use the Zhuyu grass, but we can't be reluctant to give up our immortal grass. We have to exchange it for a favor.
Chu Bitumen calmed down instantly.
Jiang Lisheng urged Ye Xingci, "Brother Ye, grind this dry grass into pieces and feed it to this fellow disciple. It might really be useful. The immortal grass, even if it dries, will not die."
Monthly ticket, huh?
