Chapter 285 Goodbye Undercurrent
In order to prevent customers from spreading the map twice, merchants naturally set up corresponding restrictions on this kind of one-time map. After reading it once, it will be automatically destroyed, so Yu Changsheng was not surprised.
After leaving the shop, Yu Changsheng didn't waste much time and returned to the Guchen Herb Collection Group.
"Master, could you please ask me if you want to go to Huishui Mountain, but what are you looking for? In this case, I will know in advance and be prepared."
As soon as he stepped into the attic, Bai Zichen, who was resting in the vestibule, suddenly asked a question with a humble attitude.
"This... I entered it with the intention of finding some medicinal materials."
Yu Changsheng was stunned, turned back to look at Bai Zichen, thought for a while and explained.
"Oh, okay, that's it." Bai Zichen nodded, understanding in his heart, and did not continue to ask what the medicinal materials were. If Yu Changsheng and the others didn't tell them some things, he would naturally ask them without the knowledge.
"Um."
Yu Changsheng agreed and showed no interest in continuing the conversation. He glanced at Bai Zichen and walked towards the backyard room.
Bai Zichen shook his head and looked at Yu Changsheng's back. From an angle that he couldn't see, his eyes were deep and full of meaning.
…………
On the other side, in the southwest corner of the town, in a group of connected houses, in the shadows, two voices flowed out from the darkness, one to the left and one to the right.
"We, Undercurrent, don't want to take this order. The people you want to assassinate have big backgrounds. Even if we take it, the risk is too great."
There was a gloomy voice. The person who made the voice was dressed in black robes, and his face was shrouded in darkness, making it difficult to see clearly. He sat there, silently, as if he was completely integrated into the environment.
After the words fell, the other person seemed a little surprised, so he chuckled twice and said:
"Don't you, Undercurrent, claim that as long as the money is in place, you will kill anyone? Why, a few foundation-building monks have made you regress."
The voice was thick, and it was also shrouded in shadow. He was running in vain, and his face was invisible.
"It's different," the undercurrent of the black-robed monk slowly shook his head and replied in a deep voice, "The person you chose is the core leader of the sect. If you really want to kill him, it will bring us a lot of trouble. "
"Then it's okay if you handle it well? As long as things are done well, the price is not a problem." The white-robed monk continued to speak, as if he had thought of something. He raised his head and looked through the darkness, staring closely at the undercurrent monk, leading you to get up. He smiled playfully:
"What's more, aren't there behemoths like Xuanyin behind your undercurrent? There is nothing in this Martial Continent that can scare you."
When the black-robed monk heard this, his eyes suddenly focused, he took a deep breath, calmed down after a while, and said calmly:
"We have never talked about this matter. If you think so, then so be it."
"Maybe." The white-robed monk waved his hand, not caring.
The black-robed monk was silent. After a while, he raised his head and took a deep look at the white-robed monk, and said: "We have accepted this order. As for the price, as you said, no penny should be missing."
"It's natural."
The white-robed monk heard this and nodded with a smile.
"One more thing, why did you want to assassinate them? We Undercurrent need to know this."
The black-robed monk nodded, paused, and continued.
"The hatred of life and death."
The white-robed monk frowned and answered calmly after a while.
"good……"
Amidst the words, the figure of the white-robed monk slowly disappeared, leaving only the black-robed monk staying there, thoughtfully.
After a while, the black-robed monk frowned, slowly exhaled, took out the communication jade tube, and transmitted something.
"Master Yanta, Undercurrent has taken an order, and the target is..."
………
"Young Master still needs to pay more attention."
At the same time, under Huishui Mountain, in an underground space where water flows meet, thick water vapor steamed up and filled the entire underground space. The rushing river water surged like a muffled thunder explosion. Above the river water, a slender figure appeared. Appearing in the mist.
This figure has a handsome face. He is a young man. He is covered in purple robes. He has a handsome appearance, but for some unknown reason, it always gives people a sense of coldness and a strong aura of blood. It continuously emanates from its body, disturbing the void.
It was the Yan Pagoda mentioned by the undercurrent monk.
"Someone issued a mission to assassinate members of the Wanxiang Sect? They included the peak master's disciples, the third-level alchemist, and the owner of the branch of the Wanshou Tower?
It's interesting. If you have the chance, you can go and take a look. "
After a while, Yan Ta put down the jade tube and murmured softly. After putting the matter aside, he replied casually and continued to practice with his eyes closed. Following his breathing rate, bursts of mysterious breath flowed out, and the river underneath seemed to He was also affected, galloping forward according to a special melody, sometimes slowly and sometimes urgently...
………
The next day, as the first ray of light from the horizon shone on the town, the originally quiet town became lively again. If you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of water rushing from the distance, in an endless stream, like a stream of water. A majestic symphony.
"If the young masters are ready, then let's go up the mountain now, right?"
Bai Zichen had been waiting at the door of Gu Chen's herb collection group shop. After everyone arrived, he said to Zhang Tianwen.
"Okay, let's go."
Zhang Tianwen looked back at everyone, nodded and answered.
"Okay," Bai Zichen nodded, pondered for a moment, and said seriously, "Since I have accepted your money, I will definitely do my best to take care of you."
"However, I'm going to say something ugly in front of you. This Huishui Mountain is extremely dangerous. You'd better follow me and don't run around. I will try my best to protect you within my ability. If not, it will be because of you. If you cause unnecessary trouble, I may not be able to help you at that time."
Bai Zichen's words were tactful, but his expression was serious, and the meaning of his words was very obvious.
"Okay, of course."
Zhang Tianwen nodded and had no other opinions on this.
Li Minghan smiled softly when he heard this, shook his head and said nothing more.
The five people's cultivation level is higher than that of Bai Zichen. They really don't care about protection. At best, they just want to see Bai Zichen familiar with the road and avoid taking some detours.
After explaining this, Bai Zichen didn't waste any more time, so he got up and set off towards the mountain.
As we get closer to Huishui Mountain, a layer of light mist gradually rises around us, and the surrounding water atmosphere becomes denser.
The surrounding people gradually became sparse. As giant trees rose into the sky, the natural sound of birdsong gradually replaced the noise of the world. A group of six people continued to go deeper into Huishui Mountain.
"Huishui Mountain is very large, stretching for more than 800 miles. It is not only a treasure place, but also a dangerous place."
"What we can explore now is the outer area. The deeper places are not accessible to us. Even in the outer area, there are many dangers. You gentlemen may have amazing cultivation, but you should not be careless. "
"I don't know exactly what medicinal materials you are looking for. I will lead you around the perimeter of Huishui Mountain based on my experience. If there are none, then I will think of a way."
Bai Zichen walked at the front and said while cleaning the weeds in front of her.
"You'd better follow me closely. If you want to leave the team, tell me in advance. Even in the periphery, second-level spiritual beasts are common. If it's not good, you can still encounter third-level spiritual beasts. That's it. It’s fatal.”
Bai Zichen muttered, glanced at the five people behind him, and slowly shook his head.
"Also, the water vapor here is very heavy and unusual. It has a very strong hindering effect on spiritual consciousness. There are many puddles in the mountains and rivers, and you will step into them if you are not careful, so you must pay more attention to your steps."
"Under the Huishui Mountain, there are undercurrents, so I was accidentally swept into the swamp, and maybe I was washed away by the undercurrent."
As the first herb collector of the herb collection team, Bai Zichen was very experienced and kept telling everyone many things to pay attention to.
"This is a spirit expelling powder. Sprinkle it on your body. It can effectively avoid the bites of some poisonous insects. It also has some effect on driving away beasts. Sprinkle it on your body."
After Bai Zichen said that, he took out five jade bottles from the storage bag and threw them to the five people.
The five people took it, and Yu Changsheng opened it gently and smelled it gently. After confirming that there was no problem with his pharmacological knowledge, he nodded to the others and then sprinkled some on his body.
Seeing this, Bai Zichen looked calm and said: "Don't worry, there are some medicinal materials unique to Huishui Mountain in it. This medicinal material is also disgusted by the spiritual beasts and poisonous insects here."
"So if you sprinkle this exorcism powder, the fragrance of this medicinal material will naturally be emitted, so that the poisonous insects will automatically avoid it, which can be regarded as saving a little trouble."
"This thing is specially made by our Guchen Herb Collection Group and is not available elsewhere."
Bai Zichen said, a look of contentment appeared on his face, and he raised his head slightly.
"good."
Zhang Tianwen smiled and complimented him casually, his eyes constantly looking around, looking for any target.
Along the way, a few people hugged each other and walked and stopped, with Bai Zichen leading the way. They really didn't encounter much trouble. Even if there were occasional spiritual beasts that escaped, they were quickly dealt with.
Fortunately, a few people gathered together, chatted and walked around, and it was not lonely or boring. No trace of the condensation grass was found, but the rest of the spiritual grass was harvested. This made Yu Changsheng feel happy and felt that this trip was not All for nothing.
"Blue and White Aesculus, the main ingredient for refining the third-grade elixir Qingzhi Dan, yes, I actually encountered it here,"
"Water Qi Vine Star, refining the medicinal materials for the second-grade elixir Bing Xin Qing Tai Dan, good, good, good."
"Lingze grass can be used as a daily warming medicine for feeding spiritual beasts, but there is such a large area..."
………
No matter what others think, at least Yu Changsheng's gains are good.
With the knowledge of plants and trees of a third-level alchemist, Yu Changsheng naturally knows which ones are spiritual medicines and which ones are valuable. Coupled with the special terrain of Huishui Mountain, there are many more spiritual herbs here than in the outside world. Although None of them are particularly precious, but taken together, they can be considered very optimistic.
"I didn't expect Master Yu to know so many people. He seems to be an alchemist."
Watching Yu Changsheng pick a piece of spiritual grass from his feet from time to time, Bai Zixuan couldn't help but speak with emotion after the initial surprise.
Even he didn't recognize some of the spiritual herbs that Yu Changsheng picked.
"I do know a little bit about alchemy."
After hearing this, Yu Changsheng gently dug out a Shuiyin flower from under the big tree and put it into the storage bag. Then he raised his head and smiled at Bai Zichen and said.
"It seems that Mr. Yu is being humble. As a herbalist, I don't know as many people as you."
Bai Zichen was ashamed. After hearing this, a trace of respect appeared on his face. He bowed to Yu Changsheng and smiled bitterly.
"They are all inconspicuous gadgets, and they are really easy to overlook if you don't pay attention."
Yu Changsheng was speechless and explained softly. He looked at Bai Zichen with a flash of light in his eyes, which was fleeting.
"I see that these gentlemen are well-dressed and have a good temperament. They don't look like casual cultivators, but they look like members of the family. I wonder if it would be convenient for me to reveal the details?"
After thinking about it, Bai Zichen showed a trace of hesitation on his face and asked.
"Oh, well, we are from the Yang family, but we are just collateral descendants, nothing like that."
Without waiting for anyone else to answer, Yu Changsheng spoke first without hesitation.
When Zhang Tianwen and others heard this, their thoughts moved and they each had their own guesses. However, there was no abnormality on their faces. They just nodded lightly, which was regarded as acknowledgment of what Yu Changsheng said.
"Yang family?" Bai Zichen was obviously taken aback. He narrowed his eyes and exhaled, with a more respectful attitude on his face. He lowered his head and said, "It turns out that the young masters of the Yang family, no wonder I said that they looked like this at first sight. A dragon and a phoenix among men.”
In the southwest, there are many families called the Yang family, but obviously, the Yang family that people in Yu Changsheng call at this moment is the largest one among them, that is, the Yang family with Zi Mansion as its head and Yang Pengju as the head of the family.
In the entire southwest, it can be said that there are two forces on the surface, one is the Xuanyin Sect, and the other is the Yang family, although the Yang family is definitely not as good as the Xuanyin Sect among the three gates.
However, Xuanyin people say it is in the southwest, but in fact, its real location is very close to the west, and its main sphere of influence is also in the west. Therefore, in some aspects, its influence in the southwest is even worse than that of the Yang family.
Therefore, when Yu Changsheng said that several of them were from the Yang family, Bai Zichen was obviously silent for a while, nodded, and showed a more respectful attitude. At the same time, he looked at the few people with a strange look in his eyes. Pass.
As for what Yu Changsheng said, others would naturally not expose it.
"I'm just a side disciple. I can't get on the stage. Master Bai shouldn't feel any pressure. He can do whatever he has to do. It won't affect him."
Facing Bai Zichen's respect, Yu Changsheng kept smiling and spoke very low-key.
"Young Master is joking. Since I am a noble member of the Yang family, I should serve you well. Don't worry. Apart from anything else, I, Bai Zichen, still have some connections in this Huishui Mountain."
Bai Zichen said confidently, patting her chest, looking at the five people with strange eyes and a faint smile on her lips. (End of chapter)
