The useless princess is causing trouble again

In the northeast corner of the courtyard, in a strange room, fog lingered around, and the air was filled with the aroma of steaming medicinal herbs. Shangguan Wei and Xiaobai jumped into the room from the window, and a stale smell hit them. The walls of the room showed a mottled tone, as if they had experienced the vicissitudes of time. An old-fashioned oil lamp hung on a pillar, and the light was dim, adding a touch of mystery to the whole room. In the corner of the room stood a huge wooden desk, which was piled with all kinds of strange items: old books, worn-out maps, and a bunch of messy instruments.

There was a huge carpet on the floor, with a complex and strange pattern that reminded people of some mysterious totem. In the corner of the room, there were some strange plants, whose leaves showed strange shapes and did not seem to belong to any known species.

This strange room is full of mystery and unknown, which makes people want to explore the secrets, but also makes people feel a little scared.

Xiao Bai smacked his lips and said, "Master, this place smells so good. Are they refining some rare elixir?"

Shangguan Wei walked to the cauldron and sniffed. "There are corpse poison grass and more than 20 other poisonous herbs in it. After taking them, people will lose their minds and become like a walking corpse. Xiaobai can taste it."

Xiaobai shook his head in fear, "No, Xiaobai doesn't want to die young, or Xiaobai will destroy the furnace."

Shangguan Wei looked around and said, "Destroying the furnace is only a temporary solution, it would be best to kill the person who made the medicine and put an end to it all."

"Master is smart. Let's kill the white-haired old man just now."

"It's a good suggestion. We can have it."

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the door, getting closer and closer. Shangguan Wei and Xiaobai quickly hid behind the screen. Xiaobai flicked his tail lightly to hide their auras, and then they became invisible.

The white-haired old man stood next to the furnace, used his inner strength to extinguish the fire, opened the lid, put the pills into the gourd, and then handed it to the little apprentice behind him.

"Qingsong, come with me to the secret room. If we succeed in testing the Spring Corpse Pill, we can retire as master and disciple."

Qingsong took the gourd in his hand and said, "I will follow the master's instructions and open the door for you." Then he turned and walked to the bookcase against the wall on the left and moved the blue vase on the upper right.

With a click, a square entrance to a secret room opened on the ground not far away, and the master and disciple walked inside following the dim, swaying light.

Shangguan Wei shook her head to the left, "Let's hurry up and catch up and kill that old man down there."

"High, the master is really high, let's go."

Xiaobai looked up and saw that Shangguan Wei had gone far away, so he quickly ran after her.

"Master, wait, don't leave me behind."

Shangguan Wei followed the white-haired old man inside. The interior of the secret room was dark and damp, with only a few weak candles illuminating the surroundings. The walls were covered with traces of time, and the floor was paved with stone slabs. The moisture generated gave off a hint of coolness, and a pungent odor filled the small space.

Shangguan Wei: It stinks so fucking bad that it makes me want to vomit. This is a mistake. I should have killed him up there.

Xiaobai: Master, this is a good idea. Xiaobai will hand you the knife now.

Shangguan Wei: Forget it, now that we are here, just bear with it and go over to see the situation.

Xiaobai: Ok, I’ll listen to my master.

The further they walked, the stronger the pungent smell became. Shangguan Wei's face turned pale. She quickly took out a small white pill from the black cloth bag and swallowed it. Instantly, the air became extremely fresh, and she continued to move forward with light steps. Xiaobai dragged his heavy steps and followed behind weakly, as if he had been drained of his energy and spirit, and his eyes were dull.

Xiaobai: Master, the stink is too distinctive, Xiaobai can’t stand it, just kill the person now.

Shangguan Wei: They have stopped, we are ready to kill.

In the empty secret room, the white-haired old man stood in front of the wooden cross, looking at the dirty man tied on it, and stuffed a black pill into his mouth while he was still unconscious.

"I'm sorry kid, as long as you become a top medicine man, no one will be able to bully you in the future."

“Aaaaaaaaaa….”

"It hurts, it's so hot, help... help... ahhh."

The white-haired old man stroked his gray beard and said, "Don't resist the pain. As long as you can endure it, you will be the strongest."

The dirty man screamed in pain after taking the medicine. Soon his eyes turned fiery red. He opened his mouth, revealing his two sharp teeth. He stared at the white-haired old man's neck ferociously, and struggled forward, as if he wanted to eat the man in front of him in one bite.

Qingsong walked to the white-haired old man and said, "Master, the other three people are bleeding from all seven orifices after taking the medicine. They are dead."

The white-haired old man looked at the wooden rack next to him and said, "If the useless test subject dies, then let him die. Drag him to the blood pool and dissolve him."

"Humph, you are such a vicious old man. I will dissolve you first today."

Hearing the voice, the white-haired old man turned around and looked at Shangguan Wei, who had her hands on her hips, with viciousness and suspicion in his eyes.

"Who are you and why are you here?"

Shangguan Wei threw her hands aside and shrugged, "The master who followed you in had a clear purpose, which was to kill you."

The white-haired old man snorted coldly, "Hmph! You little girl who speaks so arrogantly doesn't even consider your own abilities. I am the Ghost Saint of Poison. Anyone who enters here will not be able to escape my special poison."

Shangguan Wei raised her lips, "Hehe! The old man's little bit of evil is not enough for me to fill my teeth. The old man has done so many evil things, so he should go to hell. Xiaobai will go."

The Ghost Saint looked around to observe the surrounding situation and glared at Shangguan Wei, "The little girl is trying to scare me. She is simply courting death. Qingsong, go and kill her."

"Stop shouting, he's busy."

"What did you do to him?"

"Haha, see for yourself."

Qingsong stood motionless, looking forward with wide eyes, and fell straight forward the next second.

Shangguan Wei folded her hands in front of her, "Hehe, it's your turn next."

The Ghost Saint looked around in horror, "You little girl, you can't kill me, or the Ghost Resentment will not let you go..."

Before he could finish his words, Xiaobai's sharp claws scratched Ghost Saint's neck, and he fell backwards with his eyes wide open and unwilling to close.

Xiaobai returned to normal from invisibility and looked down at Ghost Saint's face. "Master, he is dead. We can leave now."

Shangguan Wei glanced at the four corpses on the wooden frame and sighed deeply, "Oh, the Poison Sect is too vicious, using living people as an experiment. Xiaobai, burn this place down and then leave from here." She pointed to the passage on the right and walked forward.

Xiaobai blew into the air, then followed Shangguan Wei away. A ball of fire fell around the secret room, and objects caught fire immediately. Sparks flew everywhere, and they fell like meteors, quickly igniting more objects around them. The fire became more and more fierce, burning everything to ashes.

Shangguan Wei and Xiaobai followed the dim light and walked forward along the narrow path. It took them half an incense stick of time to walk out of the long dark passage. After stepping out of the cave, Shangguan Wei was shocked by the scene in front of her.

"Wow, there is a zombie army here. The number is so huge that it's insane."
