Chapter 109 Big Lie
"Gone..." Bian Qing turned around with a pair of dull eyes, looking like a pair of black bottomless pits.
"It's okay - let's go home first." Bian Qing's appearance frightened Su Ziyi, but the client was calmer. He slowly walked over and took Bian Qing's hand, and then he realized that the other person's hand was very cold. , he subconsciously held it with both hands and rubbed it, trying to make it warmer.
"Let's go home first..." Su Ziyi didn't know what to say, but he didn't want to stay here anymore.
In fact, is he really not angry about what Dr. Li did? No, he is actually very angry, just because he has always been emotionally reserved and very indifferent to outsiders. No matter how big something happens, he cannot continue to be angry, and it will soon be suppressed by his reason. .
The same thing happened this time.
Since they figured out Dr. Li's intentions, he became cold-hearted towards Dr. Li, even though Dr. Li was "a teacher of kindness" to him. He completely equated Doctor Li's scheme against him with Doctor Li's help as a transaction. He felt that he no longer owed Doctor Li anything, whether in favor or money, so he could still stand here relatively calmly and persuade him. Bian Qing.
"How could this happen? Where has he gone?" Bian Qing ignored Su Ziyi's words, his eyes once again swept across every inch of the room, and then he laughed sarcastically: "Everything has been taken away, even a pillow. No, hahahaha - it seems that he has already planned it, just waiting for us to jump in stupidly." He laughed so hard that tears came out, but the emotion in his eyes was terrifyingly cold.
"Why do you think there is such a person?" Bian Qing looked at Su Ziyi, his eyes seemed to have been washed by water, and he looked very sober: "What do you think he is after? After staying in Luoshan Village for so many years... could it be that To trick us?" An idea suddenly popped into his mind. He grabbed Su Ziyi's arm and said, "We are definitely not the first! He definitely did the same thing to other people!" "Yes
, It must be!" Letting go of Su Ziyi, Bian Qing walked around anxiously: "We just came to the village eleven years ago. At that time, our family had nothing worth worrying about, so he definitely didn't. He set his sights on us. It wasn't until you changed so much in the past two years that he set his sights on you." "Before that, he had stayed in Luoshan Village for such a long time, and he must have also had an interest in other people
. People have had the same idea. I just don’t know if he has found the person he is looking for. Maybe he has not found the person, but maybe he has found the person, but those people failed, so he turned his mind to ours. On my body."
"Absolutely." At this moment, Bian Qing felt regret again in his heart.
"Maybe it was a spur-of-the-moment idea." Seeing Bian Qing's somewhat crazy look, Su Ziyi couldn't help but feel confused. He grabbed Bian Qing, held his arms tightly, stared at Bian Qing, trying to calm him down: "But no matter what Dr. Li intended, things have happened now, let's regret it—— It's useless to speculate! All we can do is move forward and solve this problem!" "
Yes."
Su Ziyi's words seemed to wake Bian Qing up, and he had a pair of misty eyes, a little lost. He lowered his head and murmured: "Then what should we do now? We don't know anything now... we have no idea what we are going to encounter..." Seeing Bian Qing's look made Su Ziyi feel uncomfortable. He had never seen it before Bian Qing looked like he had been drained of all his energy and energy.
What made Su Ziyi's heart itch and sting even more was that Bian Qing became like this because of himself.
It seems that every time Bian Qing loses control of his emotions, it's all for himself?
Why?
For a moment, an indescribable soreness filled his heart, so bitter that the corners of his eyes seemed to be slightly wet.
After a while, Bian Qing came out of that state, but he was still not in good spirits. Su Ziyi held one of his hands tightly, and the slight strength and warmth made Bian Qing raise his eyes to look at him, with a little more brilliance in his disappointed eyes. "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain - we don't want to cry anymore, why don't we see if there are any other clues here." Su Ziyi didn't believe that Dr. Li had removed everything in the house in this short period of time. Everything was moved away.
"Okay." Su Ziyi's calmness infected Bian Qing, making Bian Qing feel less uncomfortable and regain his energy. And secretly decided in his heart to increase the time and intensity of practice several times after returning, in an effort to help Su Ziyi in the future.
Although Dr. Li's house is not big, it still has several rooms. In order not to waste time, Su Ziyi and Bian Qing decided to search separately. Just because Su Ziyi was more familiar with the pharmacy and the warehouse, the two pieces of money were given to him, and the rest was given to Bian Qing. Even the corners and corners will not be ignored by him.
As soon as Su Ziyi opened the pharmacy, he thought Doctor Li had not left because the herbs and cabinets inside were still in place, as if they had not been touched.
When he came over and took a closer look, he realized that except for the precious herbs, everything else had been left behind. This was normal. After all, they were not very valuable and could be bought at any drugstore. But when he turned to those boxes and cages, Su Ziyi couldn't help but fell silent, because all the books placed in them were left here intact.
He reached out and picked up a book, looking at the words on the cover, he couldn't help but feel a little lost. He remembered that this book was the one that Doctor Li held and read most often. He once asked Doctor Li, and Doctor Li said that it contains the alchemy records from his ancestors to his generation. It is not only precious information, but also an important inheritance of his family.
However, now this precious inheritance has been left here by Doctor Li?
How is this going?
Putting down this book, Su Ziyi continued to dig through the box, and found that there was no shortage of copies, and there were even some new ones! Looking through those new books, there are actually prescriptions for Xuan-level elixirs recorded in them! Although there is no detailed refining method, these elixir recipes alone are enough to make monks across the continent fight for their heads! b★☆y★ySo
, what is Doctor Li’s plan?
In an instant, Su Ziyi almost rejected all the bad conjectures he had about Doctor Li, because judging from the things that Doctor Li left generously, it was really hard to see that he had any malicious intentions towards her. Maybe he has his own difficulties and can't tell him face to face, so he can only use this method to achieve his purpose.
But - these methods he used have caused great impact and harm to himself, but they are also real and indelible!
Clenching his fists, Su Ziyi felt a feeling of betrayal come over him. This feeling was stronger than any before. It made him feel defeated and completely doubtful about his past friendship with Dr. Li. got up. Isn't everything in the past true? Do you have to let the other party use this method?
Looking at the precious books, Su Ziyi felt extremely ironic. He wanted to harden his heart and push all these things aside, burning them all. But reason told him that he couldn't. Not only could he not, he also had to pick up all these things and read them carefully, because these things were of great benefit to him and were more likely to become his right-hand man to increase his strength.
Dust is flying everywhere in the sunlight that comes in through the paper window. The coldness in the corner licks the blackened wall bit by bit, mixing with the strong scent of herbs, making this place tainted with the taste of the world and the flavor of human beings. The seven emotions and six desires.
Su Ziyi stood up, without saying a word, stretched out his hands to cover them, carried them directly into the yard, and threw them to the ground with a "clang". As soon as Bian Qing, who was searching carefully in the main room, heard the sound in the yard, he ran over nervously. Holding the door frame, he happened to meet Su Ziyi's eyes as he came out carrying a box, and he was startled. Because——
Su Ziyi’s eyes were actually red.
Although his eyes were red, there were no tears in them, but even this was enough to scare Bian Qing. Bian Qing subconsciously ran over, stood next to Su Ziyi and opened his mouth to ask something, but when he met Su Ziyi's scary eyes, he couldn't say anything for a while. But he didn't say anything, but Su Ziyi had something to say.
"What a respectable person." Su Ziyi kicked the box and said sarcastically: "Before running away, he didn't forget to keep his old capital to benefit people like us." When Bian Qing heard this, he
bowed He bent down to open the box. Once the lid was opened, he saw books neatly placed inside.
Bian Qing, who was no longer the illiterate person before, of course knew what these books were. He looked at these books and then at Su Ziyi. For a moment, his mind was very confused. He asked with some uncertainty: "What does he want to do?" "Who knows?" Su Ziyi's voice was very soft
. After saying this, he went back to the pharmacy without saying a word.
Bian Qing, who was standing there, looked at his back in a daze. After he completely disappeared into the darkness of the room, he turned his gaze to look at the boxes on the ground. He pursed his lips, his heart filled with unpleasantness. He took a deep breath, and then, like Su Ziyi, stopped looking at these things, turned around and continued to search the room.
No matter what, the fact cannot be erased that Dr. Li has plotted against them.
In the end, after spending a whole afternoon, Su Ziyi and Bian Qing only found boxes full of books and some worthless medicinal materials at Doctor Li's house. Apart from these, the two of them didn't even find a piece of cloth or a broken bowl. It seemed that Dr. Li had found many people to move the house directly during the short period of time they had lunch.
But Su Ziyi and the others knew this was impossible.
Therefore, this further confirms the suspicion that Dr. Li is not an ordinary monk.
"Let's go home." At this time, Su Ziyi had completely come out of his previous emotions. He calmly packed those things one by one and dragged Bian Qing towards home. And Bian Qing, who was also holding a large bag of things in his hand, followed behind him, following the afterglow of the setting sun in the west, inseparable.
The next day, Bian Qing was unwilling to go to the village chief's house. Only then did he find out that Dr. Li had greeted the village chief early and said that he was going out to the hospital recently and his return date was uncertain.
"I'm quite puzzled too." Although the village chief looked much older, he still couldn't bear to part with the hookah in his hand. He smoked it very vigorously: "Although Dr. Li used to go out often, but every time It's only ten days and a half at most. This situation has never happened before." He blew out a smoke ring and said, "If you come to see him for something, you'll probably have to wait." "When he leaves, who of us will It's not convenient even if you have
a minor illness or pain. You have to run to the town." He raised his clouded eyelids and said, "It's a pity that he has been unwilling to accept a disciple for so many years. This year he accepted a disciple, but unexpectedly... ..." When he said this, he remembered the relationship between Su Ziyi and Bian Qing, smiled a little, turned his face and stopped talking.
"That's it." Bian Qing was already prepared for such a situation, but he couldn't help but his anger surged up again.
"By the way, village chief." After suppressing the anger in his heart, Bian Qing reluctantly smiled at the village chief: "How long has Dr. Li been in the village?" "Huh? Too much. How
long?" After hearing Bian Qing's words, the village chief paused with his hand holding the cigarette pole, then squinted his eyes and thought for a moment: "It's been a long time. I remember that when I was young, he was there In the village, I still remember that one year I had a bad stomach, and it was Doctor Li who treated me overnight."
Huh?
The village chief is seventy-six years old this year. Generally, the youngest person to practice medicine must be in his twenties, so Dr. Li must be at least ninety-six years old. There is indeed something fishy here, and it’s just him and Su Ziyi. Foreigners don’t understand.
"Huh?" Suddenly, the village chief bit his cigarette rod and made a suspicious sound. He said with some uncertainty: "How do I remember that there is no difference between Dr. Li's appearance at that time and his appearance now?" He shook his head. Shaking his head, he found that the images in his mind had become blurry: "Huh? What's going on? Did I remember it wrong? It seems to be about the same? No, there seems to be something different..." He said in his mouth He was making confused words, and when his eyes regained clarity, he only said vaguely: "Ah, I remembered it wrong. Is it possible that people will not change for decades? I remembered it wrong." After that, He also smiled at Bian Qing.
But why doesn't Bian Qing understand?
His heart felt cold, and he became even more secretive about Doctor Li's magical powers. He really couldn't think of any monk method that could control people's memories, and it was not just one person, but probably the entire village. He swallowed, his hands and feet were cold, looked at the village chief who smiled at him, and subconsciously stepped back.
Oh my god, is this whole village living a lie?
Chapter 110 Negotiating the future
Bian Qing had no idea how he walked home.
When he got home, Su Ziyi was still in the pharmacy fiddling with the things he brought back yesterday. He stood at the door, looking at Su Ziyi who was busy, and dug his fingernails into the door frame, leaving a white mark on the wood.
"Back?" When Su Ziyi turned around, he saw Bian Qing biting his lip.
"What's wrong? Why do you look like this? What happened?" He knew what Bian Qing was going to do. Although he wasn't optimistic about it, he didn't stop him. But looking at Bian Qing like this now, he still felt a little regretful. He stood up and walked over, gently pushing back the scattered hair around Bian Qing's ears. His voice was soft and soft: "Follow me." Tell me."
Hearing this, Bian Qing let go of his bloody lower lip and said in a hoarse voice: "Tell me, what else can you believe?" He rested his head on Su Ziyi's shoulder, and
Su Ziyi After being stunned, he subconsciously raised his hand, but paused when he lowered his eyes and saw his slightly trembling neck. Finally, his hand changed direction and was put on Bian Qing's back, giving the appearance of a false hug.
It seemed that the solid feeling on Su Ziyi's shoulder made Bian Qing find a sense of security. He pressed his forehead against a small piece of warm skin on Su Ziyi's neck while intermittently recounting what he had learned from the village chief. When he reached the end of his words, it was Su Ziyi who held his hand and allowed him to finish his words smoothly.
But Su Ziyi, who had prepared everything for the worst, didn't feel too big in her heart.
I just feel that since Dr. Li has such great ability, he should not focus on himself. After all, his qualifications are not very good. Even if it takes another fifty years, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve his magical powers.
So, what is Dr. Li thinking?
At this moment, Su Ziyi completely put away all his feelings for Dr. Li. Like a bystander, he analyzed Dr. Li's character and intentions bit by bit, trying to find some clues for reference.
"Do you think he was also responsible for what happened in the mine?" At this time, Bian Qing, who had been leaning on him, suddenly raised his head and said, "After all, with his magical powers, it is possible for him to do it." Now Bian Qing Qing, who was completely paralyzed, blamed all the unreasonable things that happened around him on Dr. Li.
"I don't think so."
Su Ziyi had doubts about this matter yesterday, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this possibility was unlikely.
First of all, judging from the fact that everyone escaped from the illusion after accepting the inheritance, this inheritance is a one-time thing. Thirdly, some things in the inheritance passed down to him by Zixi are contrary to the current mainstream common sense of cultivation in Qingze Continent. Su Ziyi himself has been trying this time and found that quite a few of the contents can no longer be used or have no effect. Very little.
Therefore, we have to admit that some things in Zixi's inheritance are "outdated", or are not suitable for the current Qingze Continent.
Therefore, from this perspective, this inheritance must not have been done by Dr. Li. After all, even if Dr. Li had great supernatural powers, he wouldn't be able to live that long, and the golden elixir monks could only live for a few hundred years.
As for the unclear influence of the village chief and other villagers on Dr. Li? Su Ziyi also thought of an explanation.
Generally speaking, the methods that can affect people's minds and memories are usually the methods of evil cultivators. However, this method is very laborious and laborious. It is really wasteful to use it on ordinary people in a village. Moreover, Doctor Li does not have it. A trace of evil spirit shouldn't use this method. In comparison, Su Ziyi was more inclined to believe that Dr. Li used elixirs to blur other people's memories. After all, the elixir prescriptions and information in his hand were not false.
Su Ziyi told Bian Qing this idea, and Bian Qing knew as soon as he heard it that he was thinking too crazy. But after he woke up, he looked at Su Ziyi with some worry: "So, those inheritances are of no use?" Although there was no danger in the end, Su Ziyi risked his life to get this inheritance. .
"That's not the case." Seeing that Bian Qing was no longer obsessed with Doctor Li's affairs, Su Ziyi breathed a sigh of relief: "The Qingze Continent has existed for an unknown number of years. Over the years, the cultivation environment has changed a lot, which naturally led to a decline in cultivation. There have been some changes. But the foundation of ordinary people's cultivation will never change. So even if those things cannot be used now, they can always bring a lot of help to my cultivation." "Besides, I think there are some things
, After I improve my cultivation, I may be able to use it." In addition, Su Ziyi also felt that if the concentration of mainland spiritual energy was higher, it would be able to activate those inherited usage conditions. It's just that this part of the content is too unreal, so Su Ziyi didn't say it.
"That's good." Hearing this, Bian Qing breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that Su Ziyi was busy in vain.
In fact, even if those magical powers and techniques were completely useless, Su Ziyi would not suffer any loss. Because the "Qing Ling Gui Yi Jue" he modified is a good mental training method, and there are no problems with magical powers and techniques for the time being, but I won't know about it in the future.
After all, unlike the "Changchun Jue" which only has one level, the "Qing Ling Gui Yi Jue" has a total of nine levels, and he is currently practicing the first level. But even at the first level, the demand for spiritual energy far exceeds that of the "Changchun Jue", and as his understanding deepens, the amount of spiritual energy required continues to increase. It is hard for him to imagine that when this spiritual cultivation method is adopted, When he reaches a higher level of enlightenment, can he really find so much spiritual energy to provide him with training?
However, even with this potential trouble, Su Ziyi did not intend to give up practicing "Qing Ling Gui Yi Jue", because this mental method can increase his cultivation speed by more than three times, how could he be willing to give it up? And unlike the "Changchun Jue", which has completely become rigid, once Su Ziyi breaks through the "Qing Ling Gui Yi Jue" to the second level, it will be time for him to advance to the foundation building level.
Build the foundation! That is a level that only the head of the Su family has!
So based on this alone, Su Ziyi would never give up. Even if he can only stay on the second or third level in the future, he can still live better than most cultivators on Qingze Continent.
As for the "Zhiyi Sword Technique" that he also practiced, it is better to say that it is a magic power technique than a mind-cultivation technique. Its demand for spiritual energy is not high, but more about the understanding of the state of mind. Although Su Ziyi stumbled when he started, he has mastered some tricks recently and has become more presentable and less like a funny clown.
I don't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that when he practiced "Zhiyi Sword Art", his mind became more open-minded, and his view of everything in the world was no longer rigidly superficial.
"When my understanding becomes deeper, you and Yulang can also modify their mental methods with me." He looked at Bian Qing and said.
Su Ziyi didn't want to think about Doctor Li anymore, because it was useless no matter what. Moreover, he has always believed in "remaining constant to cope with all changes". As long as he is strong enough, no matter what treacherous plans Doctor Li has, it will not have much impact on him. Therefore, instead of spending time worrying about these things, it is better to spend more time on cultivation.
"Is it okay?" Bian Qing felt happy when he heard Su Ziyi's suggestion. He already knew that he and Yulang were practicing the "Changchun Art", and in the eyes of outsiders, they were already risking the world's disapproval. Once the people of the Su family found out, their family would definitely not end well. But he is not afraid, because he would rather follow Su Ziyi to fight vigorously than live like this in vain for the rest of his life.
However, he never expected that Su Ziyi would take the initiative to teach them the inherited cultivation techniques.
Does this mean that in Su Ziyi's heart, his and Su Yulang's positions are somewhat different?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel sweet in his heart.
"Of course." Su Ziyi thought Bian Qing was being polite. After all, the relationship between them was not close enough to share everything: "Not to mention that changing the mind method can reduce our relationship with the Su family, just "Qing Ling Returns" "First Judgment" is countless times better than "Changchun Jue", so it is already worth revising." "
Okay, I'll listen to you." After the call ended, Bian Qing, who was originally depressed because of Dr. Li's affairs, felt in his heart Much more relaxed.
Afterwards, Su Ziyi did not let Bian Qing do other things, but took him into the pharmacy to sit down and discuss together what to do next. Originally, according to Su Ziyi's idea, they would stay in Luoshan Village for a while, but now due to the practice of "Qing Ling Gui Yi Jue" and Doctor Li's skills, he had to make another plan.
"There are still a few months left this year. Before winter comes, I will go into the mountains to find more spiritual herbs and monsters." The two people sat in the sun, discussing: "Wait until the heavy snow covers When the mountains are no longer suitable for going into the mountains, we will all practice at home. By then I should be able to comprehend all the first levels, and strive to teach the first level to you and Yulang before next spring." "Okay.
" Bian Qing nodded: "However, after you enter the deep mountains, I plan to take Yulang around the outside of the mountains. Even if we can't meet the same low-level monsters like last time, we can hunt some huge wild animals. Let's improve our skills."
"Yes, but we must pay attention to safety." Su Ziyi did not object to this suggestion. During this period of time, Bian Qing's movements became more and more proficient through practicing against him. He believed that with Bian Qing's current methods, as long as he did not encounter second-level monsters, he would be completely unable to deal with other first-order monsters. Problem.
Moreover, Su Yulang's practice was too closed-door, and he really needed to go to the mountains to practice.
"As for next year -" At this point, Su Ziyi paused for a moment. He looked at the elixir books that Doctor Li left for him, then looked back and said, "I have thought about it and will not go to Qingcheng or Chucheng for the time being. Let's go to a big city like that, to a town close to the Fallen Fairy Forest, where we can hone our skills, and I can quietly improve my alchemy skills." "But where to go, I'll wait until I come back
. Let's see."
"Okay, you can make your decision on these." Bian Qing also prefers not to go to big towns for the time being, because it will increase the chance of them meeting the Su family. Although so many years have passed, their appearance has changed. The outline has not changed much, so it is inevitable to be recognized. By then, even if they don't want to get involved with the Su family, they will definitely be targeted by the Su family.
Su Ziyi didn't expect this, because he didn't realize that this body was the son of aristocratic family at all. He just felt that near the Meteor Fairy Forest, there was more demand for elixirs and more types of spiritual herbs. It was he who took the step to explore. This is just a great place to take your first steps in the world.
But no matter what, the two people reached the same resolution.
After Dr. Li left, he did not cause much splash in Luoshan Village. First, because most of the young and middle-aged people have gone to Mingshui City, the village has suffered a serious population loss, and not many people pay attention to this matter; second, the people in the village have always been thrifty, even if they have a minor illness or pain, they are afraid of spending money to endure it. Stay, don't go see the doctor. So in the end, except for a few seriously ill old people, no one else had much in mind.
On the contrary, it was the Li Yu family. Because Yang Xu had a difficult delivery, his wife had some root causes of the disease, so after Dr. Li left, Li Yu took them to Su Ziyi's place and asked Su Ziyi to help diagnose and treat the disease. Although Su Ziyi had not been studying for a long time, because he was a monk and could diagnose and treat people's physical problems with spiritual energy, he actually helped Yang Xumuzi solve the problem.
After he solved Yang Xumuzi's problem, other people in the village seemed to have seen a new way out, and they all focused their eyes on the Su family with fiery eyes.
But in the end, Su Ziyi was still frightened, especially after hearing that Su Ziyi pushed the old woman of the Li family from the kitchen to the yard without using her hands, she felt even more frightened. So no matter how many thoughts they had in their minds, in the end, few people really dared to come to Su Ziyi's door for medical treatment, so they all went to the medical center in the town honestly.
"I don't know when Dr. Li will come back." Because he needed to take care of his physical problems, Yang Xu came to Su's house frequently, and would bring his son with him every time. And this little guy named "Li Han" by Li Yu, because of Su Ziyi's medicinal solution, he is no longer as sickly as before. He is covered in fat, and his arms and legs are full of strength. There is still some pain on the human face.
"I don't know either." Even though he had calmed down in his heart, Bian Qing still couldn't calm down, and his expression changed a little when he heard Doctor Li's name.
"Hey, I just hope he comes back soon - at least before you leave Luoshan Village." Yang Xu held Li Han in his arms and coaxed him, hoping that the noisy little guy would fall asleep: "Otherwise, Xiao Han'er will I don’t know who to go to if I have a problem. It’s far away from the town and I’m not familiar with the place.” He continued to talk, and Bian Qing looked a little incredulously when he heard his words. After talking to
Yang Xu for a long time, Yang Xu said with difficulty: "Why do you think our family will leave the village?"
