Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Wei Xi had learned the characters of the northern border at Wen Dao Hall, so he would not make a mistake in recognizing these characters.

"Is Prince Yuzhang the prince of Ju State?"

Qin Feng raised his left eyebrow slightly, and said with a hint of surprise: "Yes, Prince Yuzhang is the younger brother of Prince Wuyang... He is quite favored, and he was crowned as a prince for his military merits."

"Prince Yuzhang?" Lian Gouqie took the token covered in rotting flesh and said with disdain, "Why are his people here?"

"A token, a token from the Prince of Yuzhang's Palace," Qin Feng said seriously, "with just this token, I can't even hand over the petition."

Wei Xi and Lian Gouqie looked at each other and saw a hint of helplessness in each other's eyes.

Qin Feng's mind had been stuffed with the concepts of rulers and subjects, and the rise and fall of the country since he was a child, so when he encountered such a thing, he still thought about upholding justice.

At least Wei Xi is thinking about how to eradicate the problem completely.

The reason is simple: regardless of whether these people were sent by Prince Yuzhang or not, the fact that they have this token on them shows their strength.

Either Prince Yuzhang sent people here to carry out a secret mission; or Prince Yuzhang's political enemies framed him and wanted to harm him.

No matter which possibility it is, it weighs more than a thousand pounds to Wei Xi, a small shrimp in the world of immortal cultivation.

Wei Xi blinked and had already made a decision in his heart.

Fortunately, when the three of them came into contact with Uncle Nun, they used [Thousand Faces] to modify their faces, and they did not tell the truth about their origins and purpose.

"Achen will deal with these filthy corpses... The gods of Jiuai Mountain will send their souls away!"

Achen's mumbling words are more like an instinct in his blood, and even he himself may not understand the meaning of those words.

As Wei Xi and the other two looked on with a hint of respect, Achen transformed into a half-human state, spitting out spider silk from his mouth to wrap the corpses into huge white cocoons, and slowly dragged them into the depths of Jiuai Mountain.

"Will you come back?" Ah Chen's face, which was attached to the spider's leg, suddenly turned around and said shyly, "...Jiuai Mountain is very beautiful...You can come find me!"

Wei Xi was kindhearted after all, and with a smile on his face, he replied, "We'll bring you some candy when we come back!"

Achen nodded contentedly to the three of them, and continued to slowly crawl into the depths of the dense forest, dragging the white cocoon.

"This spider is all alone here," Lian Gou-yu sighed. "Although it looks scary, it's just like a child when you get to know it. Alas!"

"It's the only one left in this village, including the people and the poisonous insect..." Qin Feng's eyes were filled with sympathy, "It's really pitiful..."

Wei Xi never participated in such touching occasions, not to mention that she had experienced the power of the Longevity Tree: Achen was one of its few believers. Who could threaten the little spider under the nose of the Longevity Tree?
Wei Xi weighed the pendant around his neck: The wood of immortality has been obtained. Now I have to solve the hidden danger and then look for the next material.

The road to Tao Bin's tribe was very familiar, and Wei Xi and the other two arrived outside the tribe before sunset.

They waited until dark, then the three of them quietly sneaked into the Tao Bin tribe and surveyed the tribe as quickly as possible.

"There are five secret sentries in total, two near the front and back exits of the village, and one in the bamboo building in the middle. I guess it's where they hold meetings."

An expert can tell the presence of an enemy with just one move. This time, with Qin Feng by her side, she directly found the secret sentries stationed in the tribe, thus avoiding a lot of trouble.

"That's where your uncle is staying," Lian Gouqie turned his face towards Wei Xi, "the bamboo building where we eavesdropped last time."

"It's tight outside but loose inside, and there are not many people," Qin Feng added, "It's probably because your uncle took people up the mountain and abandoned the defense inside." Wei Xi gave Lian Gou Xie a look, and the latter understood and urged [Into the Painting] to get into the stilt bamboo house.

"It's amazing every time I see it," Qin Feng exclaimed. "His technique is truly superb! Even better, there's no fluctuation in spiritual energy; even cultivators can't find any flaws. In a military camp, he'd be a natural scout!"

Wei Xi remained on high alert and only replied, "He has so many taboos, how can he stay in the barracks?"

After a while, a shadow emerged from the edge of the shadow. It was Lian Gouqie, who was entrusted with an important task. He took out a stack of papers from his arms and handed them all to Wei Xi.

"Not bad. My skills haven't been wasted. I easily dug out your uncle's secrets! There are also a few cultivation techniques. I think they are the most basic ones, so I threw them aside."

There weren't many letters in the stack, and when I opened them, they were all official documents.

Wei Xi quickly scanned the information and finally confirmed that his uncle was indeed the monk who had led the massacre of the village. Their purpose was to find the Immortality Wood... as a birthday gift.

The recipient of the birthday gift was also Prince Yuzhang’s beloved father, the supreme ruler of the State of Ju.

Wei Xi really didn't know whether Prince Yuzhang was filial or unfilial: you say he was filial, but the gifts he gave to his father were stained with human lives; you say he was unfilial, but he spent a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to find gifts for his father.

Anyway, Wei Xi was very happy at this time, because for some reason, your uncle did not mention the three new monks in the tribe in the official document he wrote to his superiors.

As for the people who stayed in the village, Wei Xi was now completely relieved: because she had heard a familiar voice.

It was the heavy footsteps of the Gu corpse.

It seems that without the suppression of the mountain fog, these poisonous corpses will soon become a nightmare for the soldiers staying in the camp.

Wei Xi and the other two left this place before the arrival of the Gu corpse and rushed all the way to Yudai City.

Arriving at Yudai City, the three people who had suffered a great deal in the Nanjiang Mountains could finally have a good rest.

The tense situation finally relaxed, but Wei Xi and the other two fell ill one after another.

The first one to fall was Wei Xi. She had been tormented by the Longevity Wood for a long time. At first, her face was burned and several ribs were broken. She relied on elixirs and the physique of a cultivator to survive and reach Yudai City.

A local doctor was called in, and the insects used to clean the wound nearly made the sick Wei Xi jump up. However, after overcoming her psychological barriers, she found that the insects were quite effective. Not only did they heal the wound, but they also prevented inflammation.

Wei Xi was still lying on his sickbed, and Lian Gou Xie had fallen ill again. Unfortunately, due to his peculiar constitution, he dared not seek medical advice even when he felt unwell, but simply endured it. Eventually, his illness flared up and he was unable to get out of bed.

Even so, he still refused to let the doctor take his pulse. It was Doctor Chongzi who said his symptoms were like miasma poisoning and prescribed some pills to clear toxins and nourish the lungs. Only then did he show signs of improvement.

All I can say is that the body structure of the person in the painting is quite amazing.

Wei Xi was able to get out of bed, but Qin Feng, who had always been strong, fell ill again. This time the doctor's diagnosis was very successful. He said that her condition was caused by heart fire due to depression, and she was tired recently (taking care of patients), so she fell ill. She would recover after a good rest for half a month.

The three people who fell ill one after another had no choice but to stay in the inn and recuperate.

At first, the shopkeeper had some complaints and ran upstairs to chase the people away. However, when he saw the Taoist robe hanging in the room and Wei Xi's face, whose skin had not yet fully grown, he was so scared that he ran away.

When Wei Xi's face had almost grown back, she received two letters.
