Chapter 272 Choose one of the two
After listening to Jiang Lisheng's words, Zhou Xunmo paused for a long time before opening his mouth and eating the jade paste she fed him.
Jiang Lisheng saw that his complexion had visibly improved after he ate it, so he heaved a sigh of relief, helped him sit down, and asked, "Uncle Zhou, I remember that Taiyi also had three uncles leading the team, why are you alone now?"
"One of them was strangled when he fell into the black hole, and the other one resisted hard when the man in black was extracting his spiritual power, but was strangled by the man in black and did not survive." Zhou Xunmo said.
Jiang Lisheng was shocked. "So, a lot of the uncles actually died?"
"No, there are only two of them." Zhou Xunmo said, "The man in black attacked Taiyi first and extracted his spiritual power. He resisted in anger, and the man simply strangled him to death. After that, we waited for a while. In order to save our lives, naturally no one resisted him anymore."
Jiang Lisheng finally understood, "The reason why you were injured so badly is because you resisted afterwards? Later you found out that the man would really kill you all, so you stopped resisting?"
Zhou Xunmo said dejectedly, "Yes."
Jiang Lisheng looked at him, "Uncle Zhou is right. When the enemy is strong and we are weak, if he wants to extract spiritual power, just give it to him. Although spiritual power is important to cultivators, it is not as important as life. Since resistance is useless, why bother to resist in vain? At least you are still alive now, waiting for Senior Brother Wei and I to save you. Now that you are rescued, you will always find a way to restore your cultivation in the future."
Zhou Xunmo pulled the corner of his mouth but failed to force a smile, but his pale face looked a little more lively.
Jiang Lisheng thought to himself, this Uncle Zhou is quite handsome. Even in this state, he is still the best looking among the group. This shows how handsome he was before he was seriously injured.
She heard that Taiyi had an uncle who was as handsome as jade and whose surname was Zhou. She thought that this must be Uncle Zhou. Before entering the secret realm of Qishan, she was busy settling accounts with that dead woman Ji Fuling, and she didn't notice that Taiyi had such a handsome uncle.
Wei Qinglan suddenly stood up, walked over, and pulled Jiang Lisheng up.
Jiang Lisheng staggered and turned to look at Wei Qinglan, "Brother Wei, what's wrong?"
Wei Qinglan looked at her innocent eyes, as if she didn't understand what happened to make him do this. He laughed angrily, "Uncle Zhou is seriously injured and it seems that he can't send a message to the sect. You send a message to Uncle Wu and ask her to inform the sect to send someone to pick up Uncle Zhou."
Jiang Lisheng groaned, "About this matter, you can just call me."
She took out the communication card and planned to message Ye Xingci. After all, he was in charge of Taiyi Sect, so it would be better to inform him.
Wei Qinglan reminded her, "Senior Brother Ye has followed Uncle Master Wen into the Sword Tomb."
Jiang Lisheng immediately changed to Wu Lingxue, "Yes, yes, I almost forgot, I'll send a message to Uncle Wu right away."
She took the communication card and tapped it a few times quickly to inform Wu Lingxue.
Wu Lingxue replied quickly, and seemed very shocked. "What? Xiao Lisheng, you said you found the people from various sects who were missing in the Qishan Secret Realm? Are they okay? Where are they now?" Jiang Lisheng replied quickly, "They are not doing well. They were locked up in Qingu Mountain. Senior Brother Wei and I accidentally saved them." She told him reluctantly, "All of them have had their spiritual power drained away, and their cultivation has been lost. Among Taiyi's three uncles, only Uncle Zhou Xunmo is still alive, but he is also in very bad condition. Senior Brother Wei and I are currently taking them away from Qingu Mountain, but we can't send them back to their sects one by one. You can only send someone to pick them up."
"I'll go right away, in person." Wu Lingxue said immediately.
Jiang Lisheng turned his head and looked at Wei Qinglan, "Brother Wei, where should we stop and wait for them to pick us up?"
"There is a mortal city a hundred miles outside Qingu Mountain. After all, the uncles are like mortals now, and you also like to eat mortal food." Wei Qinglan looked at her, "Why don't you go to that city to recuperate?"
Jiang Lisheng was a little worried. "We went to Hexin City, and then the Pei family was wiped out. I don't know if the Pei family was wiped out and the incident in Hexin City had anything to do with us, but we first encountered the man in black when we were back in the water, and he escaped. Then something happened in Hexin City. I'm worried that if the man in black knew that we rescued people and took so many people to the mortal city, he would cause trouble for the people in that city."
She suspected that He Xincheng was related to the man in black, and it was not without reason. After all, the man in black appeared in Qixuanmen, and there was also corruption in Qixuanmen. Maybe He Xincheng's incident was caused by him behind the scenes.
Wei Qinglan nodded, "That makes sense. Let's go to the Hehuan Sect, which is 500 miles away. The Hehuan Sect belongs to the Taiyi Territory. Although the sect is small, there are hundreds of people. A place with spiritual energy will also be beneficial for the uncles to recover from their injuries."
Jiang Lisheng: "..."
The Hehuan Sect, this is not a serious sect.
It is said that the founding purpose of the Hehuan Sect was to cultivate the great Dao together. Tens of thousands of years ago, before it declined, it was a relatively upright sect. Husband and wife cultivated together and studied the great Dao together. The threshold of admission to the Hehuan Sect was also relatively high. The techniques of harmony and union could only be practiced by husband and wife. However, the subsequent sect leaders were worse than the previous generation, and the entire Hehuan Sect became more and more distorted. Until now, there is no distinction between Taoist couples who have made a covenant or not, and the same applies to fleeting relationships. The so-called harmonious cultivation of the Dao is nothing more than taking yin to replenish yang, or taking yang to replenish yin. In short, the sect has a very bad reputation in today's immortal cultivation world.
She looked at Wei Qinglan strangely, "Brother Wei, it's not a good idea for so many of us to go to that sect, right?"
Wei Qinglan was helpless. "Except for the cities in the mortal world and the Hehuan Sect that is closest to us, there is no better place. Are you going to let these uncles stay in the mountains, or squeeze into our flying boat for more than ten days without any rest and recuperation?"
He said helplessly: "Besides the Uncle Zhou you saw, there are many other Uncles, and they can't hold on. I don't have any more jade ointment in my hand."
Jiang Lisheng glanced around. It was just as he said. There were a lot of people who were not as seriously injured as Uncle Zhou of Taiyi. If this continued, it would not be good. She had given them a lot of good pills. She had to keep some for Brother Wei. She couldn't give them all. She had a lot of other pills, but they were all messy pills she made herself. She couldn't give them to them. It seemed that there was really no other place except these two places. After all, if she stopped at a deserted mountain at random, she might encounter the killing intent of monsters. No matter how many talismans she had, she had to use them sparingly.
She made a decision, "Then, let's go to the Hehuan Sect!"
It’s better not to go to the mortal city with so many people. It would be bad if their whereabouts are tracked and cause trouble to that city.
