After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 608 The suspicious King of Ginseng, the death of He Shiwu!
Chen Yang was stunned.

Before this, he really hadn't noticed this.

This ginseng is originally purple-red, and the red rope wrapped around it can easily be confused by the visual sense. Chen Yang even thought it was a ginseng beard.

King Shen said, "It's just a few red threads. It should be easy for you. The sword in your hand is quite extraordinary, enough to cut them off..."

Chen Yang touched his face.

If there was a mirror, he really wanted to take it out and look at himself.

Do I look so honest and so easy to be deceived?
"Senior, this red rope is..."

Chen Yang did not hide his doubts at all.

"Ugh."

King Shen sighed and said, "This is a long story."

"Then please be brief, senior." Chen Yang is not so easily fooled.

The Ginseng King said, "This requires me to talk about my life story. I was originally a small ginseng growing on Mount Emei. One year, I was captured by the owner here and brought here. I have stayed here ever since..."

“He said I was some kind of alien species, and used this red rope to bind me here, so that my body could not escape. He said he wanted to raise me to the Dao Zhen realm, and then use me to make pills. But later, he died before me, but the red rope has been tied to my body all the time…”

"This red rope has some tricks. Even though I have broken through the Dao Sutra, I cannot break free from the shackles of the red rope."

"There is no time limit in the mountains. I don't know how many years have passed until now. The red rope not only restricts my movements, but also some of my abilities. If it weren't for the restriction of the red rope, you and I would have had a great chance of taking down that madman if we had joined forces just now."

……

King Shen spoke lightly, but there was still a hint of helplessness in his words.

I have to say that his story does make sense.

Ginseng is a spiritual object that is definitely the favorite of alchemists, so the statement that he was trapped here by an alchemist is completely tenable.

But Chen Yang is not a fool. How could he believe everything others say?
Regardless of whether what this ginseng said is true or not, even if it is true, it does not mean that this ginseng is not dangerous or has no malicious intent to him.

This is the first time we meet, why should I trust you?

If I untie the rope for you, what should I do if you suddenly turn against me?
After all, it is a spiritual plant in the Daozhen realm, and the threat to Chen Yang is very huge.

"Why, are you worried? Afraid that I might do something bad to you?"

King Shen noticed Chen Yang's hesitation, and he was straightforward and raised the question directly.

"No no no."

Chen Yang shook his head, but after a while, he nodded vigorously, "Okay, yes, I do have concerns. After all, I am not familiar with the seniors. It is easy to pull the red string, but it is difficult to tie it up again..."

What I mean is, you guessed right, I just don’t believe you.

There must be more than one person who has been here. No one else tried to help him untie the red rope easily, so Chen Yang naturally would not act rashly.

King Shen said, "It's normal for you to have concerns, but now we are on the same boat. Only if I get out of this predicament can I send you out safely..."

In other words, you have to trust me, otherwise you will be trapped here.

"Of course, if you are worried, you can have other options. For example, you can settle down here. As for food, there are some crop seeds in the ruins of the temple over there, but I don't know if they can still be used. If not, you can temporarily eat some of my roots..."

Eat its roots?

Chen Yang's eyes moved slightly. This old man kept trying to please him, which made people feel like he was just being nice to him for no reason.

"That man outside has nothing to eat or drink, so he can't stay there forever. Even if he can stay there forever, you are younger and more talented than him. One day you will be able to wear him out. When he dies, or when you become stronger than him, you can dig a hole and get out..."

……

There were dark lines on Chen Yang's forehead.

Do you want to listen to what you are saying?

Waste Zhang Guohua to death outside? He was a powerful man in the realm of creation, and he still had at least several decades to live.

Don't even mention asking me to wait here for decades. I can't even stay for a few days.

"Let's take our time before we go out."

Chen Yang put aside his distracting thoughts and turned to King Shen and said, "There is something I want to ask you, Senior."

"You speak."

The King of Ginseng was very calm.

Chen Yang said, "I have a friend who entered this bottomless pit and never came out again. I wonder if you have seen him, senior?"

"Oh?"

King Shen was surprised and asked, "What does your friend look like and when did he come?"

"A spiritual Polygonum multiflorum, which is the bottomless pit that came in the past month." Chen Yang said directly.

Niujincao took over the conversation, "It is my fourth sister. More than half a month ago, it and I entered the bottomless pit together. It was walking in front and was attacked by a black shadow..."

It roughly describes the situation at that time.

Originally, it had doubts about this ginseng king, but now it seems that the figure at that time did not seem quite like it.

"Then I'm afraid it's a bit uncertain."

After Niujincao finished speaking, the Ginseng King sighed, "I'm afraid it's more dangerous than good."

"What do you mean?" Chen Yang asked.

Shen Wangdao said, "There are several forked paths under this cave. I don't even know where these forked paths lead to. In recent years, a gecko came from nowhere and often came to harass me and eat my roots. I guess your friend happened to meet it..."

"gecko?"

Chen Yang frowned, wondering why another gecko appeared.

"It's a spotted gecko. It's quite powerful and has reached the late stage of the Creation Realm. If your friend encounters it, he will definitely be in great danger..."

The Ginseng King sighed, "That thing loves to eat the magical herbs and medicines in the mountains. Even my roots have been secretly harmed by it..."

"What……"

Beef tendon grass was stunned.

So, the fourth brother is probably dead too?

After all, more than half a month has passed, and I'm afraid it has all been digested.

In other words, out of five brothers and sisters, he is the only one left?

For a moment, the cowgrass was filled with sadness.

Why did they come to Longmen Mountain for no reason? If they had not come to Longmen Mountain, the five brothers and sisters would probably still be living happily in Mixian Gou every day.

Chen Yang was not sure whether King Shen's words were credible, but there was one thing he was sure of.

At least at this moment, He Shiwu should still be alive.

Although Longmen Mountain is not bound to his system, the task of hunting He Shiwu is still hanging on the system panel. If He Shiwu died, the task must have been completed.

The mission is still unfinished, so He Shiwu must still be alive.

Of course, He Shiwu’s life or death is not that important to Chen Yang. It is just because it has helped him before, so if the opportunity is right, Chen Yang would of course be happy to save it.

But now, Chen Yang himself is trapped here and can't even protect himself, so how can he talk about saving it?
Shaking his head, Chen Yang changed the subject.

"There is another person whose whereabouts I would like to ask for your advice, Senior."

Chen Yang changed the subject and said, "I have an elder named Deng Yulian, a disciple of the Kun School of the Emei Chunyang Temple, also known as Yulian Shanren. About forty years ago, he came to the bottomless cave in Longmen Mountain and never returned. I wonder if you have seen him, senior?"

"Hey, forty years? There is no sun or moon in the mountains, so how would I know how long forty years is? In the past few years, many people have come here one after another, both men and women, old and young. As for those who can come here, I will give them some opportunities, more or less. As for the person you mentioned, I don't have much impression..."

Finally, it added, "Maybe I have seen him, but I don't know his name..."

Chen Yang didn't say anything.

The purpose of coming to Longmen Mountain this time was to find the remains of Yulianshan people. Who could have thought it would turn out like this.

Not only was he chased away by the mad dog Zhang Guohua, he was also locked in a cage.

The king said, "Young man, have you thought it through? Do you want to help me untie the red string? I really have no ill will towards you..."

Whether there is malicious intent or not is not something that can be said with words.

This Ginseng King is indeed very strong, as can be seen from his recent battle with Zhang Guohua.

Now it’s Chen Yang’s turn. If he fights with it, his chance of winning should be about 40% to 60%.

Chen Yang four, Shen Wang six.

If I use all my means, I should be able to defeat it, but if I unblock it, it will be hard to say what will happen.

"Senior, I am a little confused right now. Can you let me calm down for a while?"

Chen Yang doesn't like to take risks in such matters, but he is also capable of fighting, so he does not hide his suspicion of King Shen.

Upon hearing this, King Shen just sighed helplessly, "Well, think about it carefully. When you figure it out, tell me. Anyway, I have been trapped here for so many years, so I don't mind a little more time."

"Thank you for your understanding, senior."

Chen Yang bowed to the Ginseng King, then retreated into the passage closed by the iron gate with the Oxtenoid Grass.

"call!"

In front of the iron gate, Chen Yang sat down on the ground.

My thoughts are a little confused.

"Why don't you help it?" Niujincao came to Chen Yang and asked in confusion.

Why not help it? If you help it untie the red string, won't it be able to take you out?

"Ah."

Chen Yang chuckled, "The world is dangerous, do you believe it so much?"

"This……"

Hearing this, Beef Tendon Grass paused, "You mean, it can't be trusted?"

Putting aside other things, this cowgrass has a simple mind. It really believes whatever others say.

After hanging out with He Shiwu and the others, he didn't learn any cunning or treacherous things from them, but instead, he learned a lot of honesty and loyalty.

"I can't say whether it's credible or not, but it's always better to be more careful." Chen Yang shook his head.

"What should we do now?"

After hearing what Chen Yang said, Niujincao was a little scared.

The cultivation level of that ginseng is not low, it is a Dao Zhen realm existence. If it suddenly becomes a villain, wouldn't that be the end of the world?
"Let me think about it."

Chen Yang took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

His mind was really confused at the moment.

"Chen Yang."

At this time, the voice of the Three Corpses Divine Tree rang out, "The Ginseng King just now didn't tell the truth."

"Oh?"

Chen Yang was a little surprised, "Which one is not true?"

"About that Polygonum multiflorum plant."

"How to say?"

Chen Yang suddenly became interested. Why was the Three Corpses Divine Tree so sure?

The Three Corpses Divine Tree said, "From what it just said, it should have never seen the Polygonum multiflorum plant. However, just now in the medicinal field, I found some Polygonum multiflorum leaves..."

"Oh?"

Chen Yang's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. "Are you sure?"

The medicinal field was overgrown with weeds, and Chen Yang's mental power and radar detection were suppressed to varying degrees, so he had no idea what was going on in the medicinal field.

"determine."

The Three Corpses Divine Tree was very sure, "That Polygonum multiflorum plant had been in the underground palace. I am familiar with its scent. It is undoubtedly the leaves it left behind. It is certain that the Polygonum multiflorum plant has at least appeared here."

Hearing this, Chen Yang's expression changed slightly.

No matter how unreliable the Three Corpses Divine Tree is, it is impossible for it to lie at this time.

If He Shiwu had appeared here before, then why did King Shen pretend not to have seen He Shiwu just now, and why did he talk about the spotted gecko?
Regardless of whether the spotted gecko really exists, the King of Ginseng's concealment alone is enough to show that there is something wrong with it.

Also, Niujincao said that when it and He Shiwu were attacked that day, they smelled a strong medicinal scent.

Isn’t there a strong medicinal smell on the ginseng king?

Thinking of this, Chen Yang immediately asked Niu Jincao, "When you were attacked that day, was the medicinal smell you smelled the same as the medicinal smell on the ginseng king?"

Niujincao listened to the words for a while, then nodded, "It seems to be the same smell. I suspected it before, but the shadow I saw at that time did not look like a ginseng beard. Moreover, with its strength, it would be very easy to catch me. Why did it let me escape?"

Chen Yang frowned as he heard this.

The same taste is enough to explain the problem. As for the shadow, I didn’t see it clearly, so how can I be sure it’s not the cow tendon grass?
Maybe the spotted gecko mentioned by the ginseng king really exists, but maybe the two are just the same group?

As for why we didn't do anything to the cowgrass, that's easy to explain, because you have no value.

It's Polygonum multiflorum, and you're just a piece of Glechoma longituba, the difference between a chicken leg and chicken ribs, it's just too lazy to attack you.

Chen Yang expressed his opinion.

After hearing this, Niujincao became upset, "So, it was it that killed Lao Si?"

It shook the vines, as if it was going to roll up its sleeves and go out to fight the Ginseng King to the death.

"Calm down."

Chen Yang hurriedly called it back, "You are really stubborn, you are so quick to make decisions. We haven't even figured out the whole thing yet, not to mention, who said He Shiwu is dead?"

"It's not dead?"

Gnaphalium was stunned.

How could he not be dead? He has been captured for so long, how could He Shiwu not be dead?

If it's not dead, where is it?

It feels like Niujincao's brain is not enough and he is indeed lacking in intelligence.

……

"Ding, mission completed, hunted A-level spiritual plant [Polygonum multiflorum]*1, obtained reward [Blood Essence Stone]*2, experience value +1000 points."

……

Just as I was about to say something, suddenly, a system prompt popped up.

Mission accomplished?

He Shiwu, dead?

Chen Yang was completely stunned. The last second he was still swearing that He Shiwu was not dead.

This slap in the face came too quickly.

This task had been issued by the system a long time ago, when he first met He Shiwu. Later, He Shiwu was temporarily recruited by him and he no longer cared about it.

Now that the mission was suddenly completed, it meant that at that moment just now, He Shiwu was dead!

"what happened?"

Niujin Teng sensed Chen Yang's emotional changes and asked quickly, "You said that Lao Si is not dead yet, so where is he now?"

Chen Yang stood up suddenly.

Ignoring the cow tendon vine, he immediately walked outside.

In the medicine field, the ginseng pestle remained in the same place, as before, with no sign of anything unusual.

Chen Yang's heart sank.

Could it be that I just asked it about He Shiwu and it felt threatened, so it killed He Shiwu?

If He Shiwu was really captured by this old ginseng, it is not impossible.

The medicinal power in He Shiwu's body is not comparable to that of ordinary spiritual plants. It will definitely be beneficial to this ginseng king. It has motives to capture He Shiwu and kill He Shiwu.

"What's wrong? Have you thought it through?"

At this time, King Shen saw him.

Chen Yang stood at the entrance of the cave and stopped. He wanted to ask something, but he held it back.

Direct question?

Everything is just speculation. There is no evidence at all, not to mention whether King Shen will admit it. Once this question is asked, it would be fine if it was wrongly accused, as long as it is explained clearly. But if it is really King Shen who is behind this, there is a possibility that King Shen will turn against him directly, and a big battle will be inevitable at that time.

He Shiwu is already dead, this is a fact. At this time, Chen Yang asked himself, is he ready to have a fight with this ginseng king?

"interesting……"

Chen Yang put on a smiling face and said, "I need to pee urgently. I want to find a place to relieve myself."

"Oh."

The ginseng king shook his branches and said, "There is no outsider here, you can just find a place to pee. If you really can't, pee in my herb garden and treat it as fertilizer..."

"How embarrassing."

Chen Yang laughed dryly, ran to a corner nearby, and opened the gate to release water directly towards the cave wall.

It is said that people are most vulnerable when they are relieving themselves. The success rate of a sneak attack at this time is as high as 200%.

Chen Yang didn't dare to go to the medicine garden to relieve himself. If he was attacked, he wouldn't even be able to pull up his pants.

"Crash..."

Accompanied by the sound of rushing water, Chen Yang pretended to be calm, turned on his radar, and watched his back, fearing that the Ginseng King would suddenly attack him.

The Three Corpses Divine Tree said that there were leaves of He Shiwu in the medicine garden, which meant that He Shiwu’s real body was most likely in the medicine garden.

Controlled by the Ginseng King under the medicine garden?
He didn't dare to get close to her deliberately, as that would only arouse suspicion.

The radar cannot penetrate into the underground medicine garden, so there is no way to know the situation there. Everything is still just speculation.

"Didi da da..."

After shaking it, Chen Yang shivered.

He pulled up his pants, turned around, and walked towards the medicine garden naturally. "Senior, I forgot to ask you just now. You mentioned the owner of this place before. I wonder what the identity of this owner is?"
