When Ling Cang was carried out of the alchemy furnace, blood droplets were scattered all over the ground, and it looked miserable under the dim light of the night pearl floating in the room.

Shen Yan wondered how much blood this skeleton-like person still had to shed.No matter how many evil things he has done in the past, at least at the moment, Shen Yan sympathized with him and still let him sit against the wall, took out the hemostatic powder and sprinkled it on the edge of the wound, and the place where the iron chain was worn slowly stopped the bleeding.

Ling Cang remained silent the whole time, as if he had lost his pain-sensing nerves, and it seemed that what flowed from his body was not blood but water.

Only the skinny palms trembling slightly against the ground revealed that he was trying to endure.

Shen Yan looked sour in her heart, hesitated and said: "Shall I go and call my senior brother? He can take care of people. You look like this, and you always need someone to take care of you." I can still have this kind of blessing? "Ling Cang laughed at himself.

"Everything in the past... I am not qualified to say anything. However, the days to come are still long, after all, you still want to teach me how to make poison?"

"Hehe. I still want to seek revenge from the Beast Sect, how can I sink like this?"

"Well, that's good. When my senior brother comes over later, you must not talk about refining poison, or he will beat me to death."

Ling Cang raised his eyes with great interest: "Don't worry, only you and I know about poison refining."

Shen Yan stepped out and closed the stone door cautiously.Not long after, he returned with Gu Qing.

Gu Qing was at a loss at first, but his junior brother came back in the middle of the night and didn't say anything, but insisted on dragging him to retreat in the stone room, what the hell was he doing?

As a result, when I came in and saw the blood all over the floor and the skinny white-haired man, I was dumbfounded immediately!

After being stunned for a moment, he took out the ruler and beat Shen Yan on the back without hesitation: "You unlucky boy! Why did you catch someone after going out for a while! You tortured him like this! See if I don't beat you to death! "

Shen Yan covered her head and jumped on her feet to run around, yelling as she ran: "I didn't catch it! I saved it! Hey! Brother, why are you doing this! Hey! Brother, trust me!"

Ling Cang curled his lips and watched the joke for a long time, then coughed lightly, and said loudly: "This fellow Taoist misunderstood, I am rescued by little brother Shen Yan."

Gu Qing paused, turned his head to look at the man, felt a little dizzy when he looked at him, his body swayed, and he barely held on.

He walked up bravely, squatted down, and helped the man brush away the white hair covering his eyes. When he saw those golden eyes, he froze for a moment, and said in a warm voice, "My name is Gu Qing. What about you? Where are you from?" , by whom? It’s safe here, you can speak out with confidence.”

Ling Cang was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Shen Yan's senior brother to be the complete opposite of Shen Yan's style, he was careful and gentle, kind and mellow, and he didn't put any conditions on helping others.

There are not many such kind people in this world.

"I'm Ling Cang, thank you Daoist Gu for taking me in. But what happened to me is a long story... I hope you don't pursue it for the time being."

"Oh, don't force it, it's okay if you don't want to say it. Can you open the chain on your leg?"

"This kind of vajra copper cannot be broken with spiritual power and sharp weapons. Only the aqua regia specially prepared by Yuqimen with several kinds of strong acids can corrode it."

"Okay, I'll find a way now." After speaking, Gu Qing got up and walked out.

"Brother, wait!" Shen Yan hastily pulled him back, "I saved the man, how can I work for you, brother?"

To be honest, although he also wanted to get rid of the two iron chains, he was afraid that Ling Cang would run away without the shackles, so he never mentioned the matter of untying the chains.Unexpectedly, the senior brother volunteered, so he had to stop the person and do the hard work by himself.

Senior Brother didn't even ask if this person was good or bad, just treated him wholeheartedly when he was pitiful, it was too simple!

"Do you have a solution?" Gu Qing asked.

"Isn't it Wang Shui? There is a black market at the foot of Yuqimen Mountain, and items from inside the gate often flow out. As long as the Lingshi is paid in place, you can always find a way to get it."

When Gu Qing heard this, his brows and eyes drooped, and he glanced at Shen Yan: "You know these crooked things best!"

"Brother... Isn't this useful occasionally!"

"Then go quickly! Is the spirit stone I gave you enough last time?" Gu Qing ordered him rudely.

Alas, can't you let the younger brother take a breather?

Shen Yan sighed: "Enough is enough, brother, don't worry. It can take seven days or three days, and I will definitely get it back."

After finishing speaking, he looked back at Ling Cang who was jokingly smiling at him, and walked out of the stone room resignedly.

I went out to look north, and silently said a few times about Master.

The person who refines Hua Gong San has been found, and the hidden danger that threatens you the most will be eliminated soon!

After Shen Yan left, Gu Qing said to Ling Cang: "It's cold on the ground, let me go get the bedding and put it on?"

Ling Cang looked up at Gu Qing for a while, and said, "Gu Daoyou is careful. But the journey was bumpy just now, I lost a lot of blood and felt dizzy, I wonder if you can help Gu Daoyou to support me to sleep for a while? bleeding."

"Of course." Lu Qing walked behind Ling Cang, lifted his robe and sat down, gently embraced Ling Cang's back into his arms, and carefully placed his head on his shoulder.

"Fellow Daoist Ling, rest easy, I'll be watching."

"You Daoist Gu don't dislike me with white hair and dry bones?"

"Why do you want to dislike it? Although I don't know why Fellow Daoist Ling fell into such a situation, Gu only wants to help, and has no other intentions."

"So, thank you very much."

Ling Cang closed his eyes, and slowly relaxed the palms that were resting on the ground.Feeling the warm body temperature and peaceful breathing of the people behind you, you can relax your mind and fall into a deep sleep for the first time in 300 years.

Seven days later, Shen Yan hurried back in the middle of the night.After entering the stone room, one could see Ling Cang as if he had changed.

His white hair was tied up in a high bun and fixed with a jade hairpin. He was wearing a white and soft robe. He leaned casually on the fluffy dark bedding. With his calm face and always emotionless eyes, people could ignore his abnormal behavior. Thin and thin, I thought this was a leisurely and contented worldly expert.

"Ayan is back?" Gu Qing, who was sitting a little far away meditating, stood up in surprise and greeted him.

"Well, senior brother helped take care of him these few days, it's hard work." Shen Yan took out a jade bottle.

"Why do you have injuries on your face?" Lu Qing frowned and took a few steps forward.

Shen Yan raised his hand to caress a scar on his cheek that ran obliquely from the corner of his eye to the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "It's okay, something went wrong on the road. I put on Master's Lengxiang jade muscle ointment, and it disappeared after two days up.

"Who hurt you?" Gu Qing asked coldly, but seeing Shen Yan faltering, he snorted again, "Forget it, when did you tell the truth about the outside world?"

Shen Yan chuckled, turned around and walked towards Ling Cang: "My senior brother took care of you so well!"

Hearing the words, Ling Cang looked up at Gu Qing, softness appeared in his cold eyes, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "Gu Daoyou, I'm a little hungry, can I help you get some food?"

"Okay, just wait for a while." Gu Qing nodded and strode out of the stone room.

When Gu Qing closed the stone door, Ling Cang's smile disappeared, his face was as calm as an ancient well.

Looking down at Shen Yan helping him corrode the iron chain, he said, "After the chain is untied, follow me."

Shen Yan's hand trembled, almost spilling aqua regia on the back of her hand.

"Why? It's not suitable here?"

"You don't want to learn to refine poison under Gu Daoyou's nose, do you?"

"Besides, you must learn alchemy before learning to refine poison. Both of them need to consume a lot of natural materials and earthly treasures. If you don't go out to find and collect them, what do you use for refining?"

Shen Yan's lips moved a few times, his mood gradually fluctuated, and his fingertips began to tremble.

"It's just been away for a few years, why are you excited?" Ling Cang glanced at him.

With a sound of "Ding", a chain broken by the water regia fell to the ground, awakening Shen Yan from the trance.

Gently pull out the broken chain from Ling Cang's leg, leaving only a fleshy hole in the calf, exposing the dark white fibula and tibia.

The tough man in front of him, who has been humiliated and tortured for hundreds of years, still can't break his will, how can he just ignore the business in order to accompany the master?

Shen Yan spat out the word with difficulty: "Okay."

When Lu Qing came back with the steaming bowl of noodles, Ling Cang's calf was already covered by the corner of his robe, and he couldn't see the horror inside at all from the outside.Several broken chains were scattered on the ground.

"It was solved so quickly? Ah Yan did a good job! The servants are asleep at this time, I made the noodles myself, you have a taste." While praising Shen Yan, she squatted next to Ling Cang and picked out two pieces of noodles to feed him .

If it was normal, Shen Yan would definitely slander Ling Cang because of his bad legs and not bad hands, is it necessary to feed him?But now his heart was sore and unbearable, he walked aside silently, and stood facing the north with arms folded.

"Well, Gu Daoyou is good at craftsmanship."

"Really? Ah Yan wouldn't even eat the food I cooked, I thought it was so unpalatable!"

"It's a pity that I don't have the chance to eat more now."

"Fellow Daoist Ling is leaving?"

"Exactly. Not only am I leaving, but little friend Shen Yan has to make a hard trip and walk with me."

"Why?"

"I still need to find suitable medical treatment for my lower leg. Little friend Shen Yan is very kind-hearted, and he can't bear to be the next person to take risks outside, so he strongly asks to accompany me."

"This... my junior brother is very naughty, he will get into trouble every now and then, for fear of dragging you down."

"How could it be? I see that little friend Shen Yan acted quite methodically. I was rescued only because of him."

"To be honest, I'm a bit reluctant. This kid is the youngest junior of our Cuizhu Peak, and he has never been away for a long time..." The two were talking in a low voice, when Shen Yan suddenly turned around and said Twitching the corners of his mouth, he said, "Don't worry, brother, it's common for practitioners to go out and travel. Anyway, the master is also in retreat, and he can't guide me by hand. It's better to go out and broaden your horizons."

"That being said..." Lu Qing pursed his lips, still disapproving.

"I'm going to report to Master. If he agrees, brother can rest assured, right?"

"……All right."

"There's no rush now, wait until the scars on my face disappear, lest Master ask."

"Your trouble-making physique is no one else!" Lu Qing exhaled helplessly, then smiled embarrassedly at Ling Cang.
