"…Master Taibu, please speak in a simpler and easier-to-understand way. We can't understand the subtext."

"What she meant was that the Cloud Cavalry Army fell into the evil shadow without any warning, and the culprit was the nearby alchemy furnace, or rather the white mist emitted from the alchemy furnace." Zishu explained.

Fu Xuan nodded and said solemnly:

"The Medicine King's secret teachings mixed in the mist that spread throughout the cave with elixirs that can induce the demonic body. Unless the Cloud Cavalry can hold their breath and march, they will collapse without a fight. "

"Because no one knows when their comrades will fall into the evil spirit. Miss Xing also said before, what can better undermine the morale of an army than suspicion?"

Walter understood her plan a little bit, and said:

"You launched the first assault there earlier in order to provide cover for the follow-up, using the Cloud Cavalry to attract the enemy's attention so that we could extinguish the furnace and stop the smoke, right?"

207. Come with me!

Fu Xuan tapped his chin lightly.

"The Medicine King Secret Sect gave up its hundred years of hiding and chose to show itself now, which means it is sure of victory. However, no matter how well prepared it is, it is still coming for the Cloud Cavalry Army. The Medicine King Secret Sect has no idea of ​​your abilities and existence, and cannot defend against it."

"I suddenly thought of a blind spot." Xing pondered, "Your subtext is that we are not affected by the white fog, so why not let the Chiming tribe or the fox people give it a try?"

"You misunderstood the Demonic Yin Body. It is not a curse that is effective against humans. The reason why foxes are not susceptible to the Demonic Yin Body is that although they are immortals, their lifespans are not infinite. The vidyadhara abandoned the old world by shedding their scales. As far as the Demonic Yin Body is concerned, the immortals are equal, but——"

At this point, Fu Xuan's complex expression flashed away, and he said:

"The people of Medicine King Secret Teachings would never have expected that the general would dare to ask for external assistance, and of course they would not make preparations to deal with the short-lived species."

Sanyueqi couldn't help but glance at Zishu, but he wasn't too worried.

The reason is naturally self-evident. Even he himself has forgotten his exact age, so one can imagine how long he has existed. Since he has not fallen into the devil's evil, it means that he has better means of prevention, or he does not have that kind of side effect.

"So this is what General Jingyuan meant by the surprise force?" Walter said thoughtfully.

"I dare not speak nonsense."

Although Fu Xuan really wanted Jing Yuan to retire quickly so that he could succeed him as general, he also knew that Jing Yuan was far superior to him in terms of strategy.

"I can only say that the Star Core Hunter's predictions are more accurate than mine. The future Kafka wished for is coming true one by one."

"But I don't really want to act according to their predictions." Xing frowned. "It feels uncomfortable, as if I'm being manipulated by someone."

"I don't want to be pushed around by others, but people don't walk their lives alone, unfettered."

Fu Xuan turned his gaze and met Zishu's eyes.

"Everyone's choice will not only build themselves, but also push those who are with them forward. Taibu's accusation is to seek good fortune and avoid disaster. I don't want my choice to make Luofu slide into a bad future."

Zishu didn’t know what Fu Xuan had experienced in the past. The confusion he read from her eyes might be the reason why she was so persistent in taking that path.

"So what you mean is that we are the only ones who can handle this right now, right?"

"That's right, you are also proficient in divination, so you must know that every word I said is true." Fu Xuan nodded.

"That's not necessary. I just calculated another aspect of the hexagram." Zishu stroked his chin, his pupils moving slightly, "I think you need to understand this hexagram."

"Oh? Please tell me."

"Are you sure you want me to say it here?" Zishu looked strange.

"determine."

"Okay then, about the white silk on your legs that appeared in front of me for no reason..."

"Stop! Come with me!"

Fu Xuan's face flushed red, and under the astonished gazes of everyone, he grabbed Zishu's sleeve without saying a word, and pulled him aside with some embarrassment.

"emmm..."

Xing showed a puzzled look, and for the time being, she couldn't figure out why Zishu would bring up what happened in Taibusi in such an occasion...

He must have understood that the situation was tense and time was running out, but he still deliberately mentioned something that Fu Taibu didn't want to hear.

Could it be... there is something that cannot be heard by anyone here?

Thinking of this, Xing subconsciously swept his eyes over everyone.

Walter, March, and Tingyun who followed...could it be her?

Looking at Zishu and Fu Xuan's backs disappearing from his sight, Xing couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

But before she could think too long, the two of them came back, but Fu Xuan's expression looked like he was furious.

No way, Zishu is serious and is teasing Fu Taibu in private?

"..."

What should she do? She can't become smaller...

His eyes were wandering around a little lost, and Xing inadvertently saw Tingyun waving a folding fan with an amusing expression, and he actually felt a little upset.

"Axing, I suddenly feel a little disillusioned..."

San Yue Qi came forward and lowered his voice.

"In the past, when people talked about cute pink-haired girls, they would definitely think of me. Although Taibu is also very cute, the height difference between them looks too weird..."

“…Don’t think too much. Maybe things are not what you think.” Xing shook off the messy thoughts.

"Look at Fu Taibu's face, it's so red, how is it different from a shy little girl!"

“…” Xing’s eyes twitched.

When he wanted to say something, Fu Xuan coughed violently several times as if he was choked. His breathing became rapid and his chest rose and fell slightly, but his complexion looked much better.

"Master, what are you doing..." Sanyueqi asked weakly.

"Ahem...it's not too late to start practicing breath holding now..."

“Hold your breath for what…huh?”

Xing twitched his lips and said speechlessly:

"It seems that you are afraid of falling into the evil spirit. You don't look like you are in trouble. Compared with those abnormal cloud riders we saw before, you are no different from a normal person."

"It's still far from the furnace. Although I don't know much about pharmacology, I know that talking about toxicity without considering the dosage is just a theory. Humph... Even so, I'm still scared to death!"

Xing: “o_o…”

March 7: "( °Д °;)"

"Even if there is a wake-up talisman, the sub-book also said that this thing is not a 100% preventive measure. I am still young and don't want to fall into the devil's body so soon!"

Xing: "What if you suddenly get sick now? Wouldn't it be difficult for us to handle it?"

"My fortune fluctuates between Dui and Qian. If I act decisively, I won't be harmed. So don't talk too much and shake me!!"

Fu Xuan put away the unnatural expression on his face and said seriously: "In short, I will do my best to maintain my sanity, and the rest depends on you. As long as the fog stops, I will lead the army here immediately and will never let you fight alone."

"Even you are scared to death, so we are scared too!" said March 7.

"Don't worry, you won't... Well, let me give you a reassurance. The doctor believes that the demonic body is related to memory. Although the immortal species has an extremely long lifespan, the memory capacity will eventually have a limit;"

"Hundreds and thousands of years have passed, and the threshold of emotion that the immortal species can feel has continued to rise. Their memories have also become thinner and weary under the erosion of time, leaving only the most extreme and vivid sediments, which are almost certainly the remnants of memories of pain and regret. Do you understand?"

"I still don't quite understand... Then according to what you said, if I can't remember the past, then I will be extremely safe. Then I feel relieved." March 7 patted his chest.

"No, you are confused. The cause of the demonic body is not memory, but the threshold of emotion has been tempered... Forget it, just treat it as memory and listen."

Fu Xuan's face was a little heavy, and he said:

"The end of the Immortal Species is that they no longer feel happiness and joy, and only regret and sorrow are left like scars engraved in their hearts. Under these extreme emotions, the self as a human begins to collapse, and this is the beginning of the demonic body."

208. Birth and Death Talisman

For some reason, Zishu thought of the so-called wear and tear in Genshin Impact.

It's quite similar, except that he doesn't have plants or armor growing all over his body.

"Short-lived people don't have to worry about these things. Are you all relieved?" Fu Xuan said.

Sanyueqi: "Okay, but to be on the safe side, after we get in there, we should stick the awakening talisman that Zishu gave us on."

"Well, if there's nothing else to add, let's go," Walter said.

On the way, San Yue Qi couldn't resist his curiosity and gossip, so he asked Zi Shu what he and Fu Xuan said and did when they were alone, but Zi Shu made excuses to evade the question.

With just a simple sentence that the secret cannot be revealed, March 7th's mouth was shut, which made me feel depressed.

She shifted her attention away from Zishu and smelled a scent coming from the side. She seemed to remember something and said with wide eyes:

"Wait! Miss Tingyun, why don't you go back? This place is very close to the alchemy furnace. The fortune teller said that fox people are also at risk of falling into the devil's shadow!"

"Thank you for your concern. I'm fine~" Tingyun smiled lightly and said, "The general ordered me to follow you. I dare not disobey the military order."

"Human life is at stake. Miss Tingyun can go back first and we will explain to the general." Walter advised.

"Really, no need. Haha... I have been traveling in the universe for many years. Although I am not young, I have only a dozen years of experience. I am afraid that all of you benefactors have lived longer than me."

Having said that, the few people stopped trying to persuade each other. After all, no normal person would joke about their own life. Just have your own considerations.

"Xing, Sanyue, stick this talisman on your weapons." Zishu waved his hand, and two black talismans floated in front of the two women.

"To increase the lethality?"

Xing took it curiously, and without thinking, he took out the baseball bat and put it on the surface. In less than two seconds, an unknown black mist appeared on the surface of the bat, but he did not perceive any special changes.

"I guess so." Zishu explained, "Some people in the Medicine King Secret Teachings are like the Blue Owl we met earlier, with strong recovery abilities. This talisman can effectively restrain them."

"So it's a severe injury enchantment. Now I understand if you translate it into game terms." A hint of realization flashed in Xing's eyes.

March 7: "It's so magical."

"You'll know if you try. Look ahead." Zishu pointed to the aimless beast floating ahead a few hundred meters away, "shoot it with an arrow and try."

"okay!"

The formless ice condensed into an arrow. San Yue Qi drew the bow, squinted his eyes, aimed, and suddenly released his two fingers -

The perception of the rich evil creature over there seemed to be weak, and it was hit by an arrow. The noise attracted the attention of the rich spirit beasts wandering around.

Except for Zishu, no one cared about the enemies who were attracted here for the time being, and they all looked stunned.

The bountiful spirit beast was shot by an arrow and quickly turned into black gas and dissipated in just two seconds, without even leaving a corpse.

"Wow, I can actually be so powerful?"

Zishu lamented, "It's a pity that the Life and Death Talisman is difficult to make, otherwise it would be easier to equip Yunqi with it and fight against the Medicine King's secret people than to kill a chicken."

Behind the crowd, Huanlong, who had turned into a cloud, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a hint of curiosity arose in his heart again.

Killing the Abundant Beast easily is not a commendable skill, but -

The ability to give humans with weak combat power the ability to kill the rich evil creatures effortlessly using the same mediocre weapons has never been seen before.

In the historical wars when the Fengzao people invaded Xianzhou, if the immortal lives were so easy to deal with, the people of Xianzhou would not have suffered countless casualties and heavy losses in those battles.

She couldn't tell the white-haired man's limits, and her hidden card was unknown. She only knew that he seemed to pose no threat to her senses, and that was all.

Never mind, let’s observe for a while.

Anyway, this group of people, like Jing Yuan, will eventually arrive at the Jianmu seal, and they can be dealt with together then.

As long as she could obtain the abundant divine power in Jianmu and combine it with the power of destruction, she would be able to create the most perfect and satisfying body in history...

Hehehe…By that time——

No matter if it was a general on hunting tour, an unknown passenger on the Starry Sky Train, or a masked fool whose true identity was unknown, they were all no different from ants in front of her. She could destroy them all in a snap of her fingers.

……

On another timeline, the player received the talisman called the Life and Death Talisman from the sub-book. After clicking on the equip item in the backpack, he found that it was a great pleasure to kill the monsters on the fairy boat.

The introductions are simple and crude.

"Birth and Death Talisman"

[One of the many magical talismans in Zishu. After equipping it, when it causes damage to enemies on the Xianzhou world map, it can remove the rebirth state of the enemy and cause a lethal effect.]

"Wow, this is too comfortable. Who said Xier was targeted when she arrived at the Immortal Boat? One knife to each of them, and there is no need to worry about the triggering of the reappearance." Lao Mu looked very comfortable.

[Although... it would be more fun to switch to a black tower. ]

[Correct, I just tried it, even if it's a level 1 black tower, one E will instantly clear the screen.]
