Chapter 178: Hundreds of Demons in Chaos
"I am Ye Yang. I am grateful for the praise of my fellow cultivators. I am called the master of swords and sabers. Please come forward..."
"My father was killed by thieves, his internal organs were dislocated, and he was seriously injured. I heard that Ye Hufa is proficient in the art of life recuperation, so I came here to ask Ye Hufa for help."
Ye Yang looked at the old man in purple. The old man's face was as pale as gold paper. He knew that the other party had been seriously injured.
However, Ye Yang thought about it for a moment, then, ignoring the two people's pleading expressions, he shook his head.
"I'm sorry to have misunderstood you two. I'm not good at medicine. It's possible that the outside world spread rumors and spread my false reputation, which led you to this place."
These two people are not related to him. His Withering and Flourishing Hand does have the magical effect of dissolving life energy, but he is not the only one in the world who can do it.
This palm technique has been in the Feitian Sect's Scripture Pavilion for many years and there are many practitioners. However, it is difficult to practice and requires collecting flowers from spring, summer, autumn and winter to practice day after day. Most people are only at the entry level and find it difficult to break through.
After learning the Thirteen Swords of Time, the power of the Withered and Flourishing Hand was further enhanced, and it already contained some of the power of time.
But he was not familiar with the two of them. If he helped anyone who came to him for help, wouldn't it make him seem too cheap?
The easier it is to get, the less likely the other party will cherish it.
As the saying goes, the truth cannot be passed on lightly, and the law cannot be sold cheaply. This is the truth.
When the beautiful woman heard what Ye Yang said, she was obviously very angry and her body was shaking constantly. The two of them walked thousands of miles and rushed all the way. The old father dragged his seriously injured body to this place.
After a lot of effort, they found the person, but he said he didn't know any medical skills. How could they not be anxious?
"Protector Ye, we are from the capital of the Great Fortune Dynasty. We have countless spiritual stones. If we can help, the reward will surely satisfy Protector Ye."
Ye Yang still shook his head. At this time, the old man behind him shouted, "Rong'er, step back. How can you do things like this?"
After being yelled at by the old man, the beautiful woman quickly retreated. Although her face was still quite dissatisfied, she did not dare to say anything more for a while.
The old man's face was pale. He clasped his fist towards Ye Yang, tremblingly took out a piece of tattered bark from his body, and then carefully handed it to Ye Yang.
"Protector Ye, I am sorry for disturbing you because I don't know the rules. This is a gift from a friend. He said that Protector Ye is very powerful, righteous, and proficient in the art of life recuperation. That's why I came all the way here from the Dayun Dynasty."
The moment Ye Yang saw the old man take out the dead tree bark, he was slightly stunned. Then he took the dead tree bark in his hand and looked at it repeatedly.
The bark was very ordinary, cut from an old tree, but there was a mottled mark on it, which was half of a white lotus.
Ye Yang also took out a piece of old tree bark from his storage bag, which fit perfectly, but there was still a gap of two-thirds of the space.
After returning the bark to the old man, Ye Yang said, "Where did you get this?"
The old man said respectfully, "A few days ago in Kyoto, I rescued a young girl. She saw that I was seriously injured and said that Ye Hufa was her second brother, who was skilled in martial arts. She took out this token and asked me to go to Feitianmen to find Ye Hufa to treat my injuries."
Ye Yang groaned.
This item is a token of the White Lotus Consort Yang Xiaoyan.
At that time, in the Longevity Barrier, the four of them became sworn brothers and used this as a token of trust, agreeing to advance and retreat together and help each other, which could not be false.
Later I heard that the Bodhisattva of Great Joy, who donated his flesh and blood, was hunted down by the Qinglian Mo family, and countless of his disciples were killed or injured. I guess that Yang Xiaoyan must have fled to the Dayun Dynasty because of this incident.
"I don't know how this person is doing now?"
Hearing Ye Yang say this, the old man couldn't help but reveal a glimmer of hope on his face.
As soon as this person saw the token, he asked about the owner's identity. This shows that the token cannot be fake and the other party also attaches great importance to credibility.
He said, "After we rescued the female cultivator, she has recovered a lot, but the Great Fortune Dynasty was in chaos and the journey was dangerous, so she did not come."
"A hundred demons are wreaking havoc in Beijing?"
The old man sighed, "The fourth on the Demon Exorcist List, the Black Sin Peacock King, led more than a hundred demons to destroy the Imperial Immortals' water prison and retreated calmly. Now Kyoto is in chaos."
Hearing this, Ye Yang thought of the overwhelming and gorgeous peacock figure in the Elephant Demon Fist inheritance bead.
No wonder the group of demons in the Elephant Demon Fist inheritance bead have become quiet during this period. It turns out that they were secretly planning such a big move.
"Please give me your hand."
Ye Yang put his hand on the other's wrist and felt it quietly. After a moment, he put his wrist down and couldn't help but frowned slightly, with a strange color in his eyes.
Ye Yang then understood why Concubine Bai Lian recommended him here.
Although Ye Yang is not proficient in the art of medicine, the Withered and Flourishing Hand is extremely sensitive to changes in the vital energy and blood of the human body.
As soon as he made contact, he discovered that the old man seemed to have suffered serious injuries to his internal organs, with a trace of dried blood hidden in his lung veins that was difficult to eradicate.
That is why you cough up blood all the time. Once blood accumulates in the lung veins, the kidneys and heart will quickly dry up, and even an immortal cannot save you.
"Since you were able to save my sworn sister, I think you are a kind-hearted person and should be treated. However..."
Hearing Ye Yang say the word "just", the old man and the beautiful woman suddenly became nervous. "Just what... please explain clearly, fellow Taoist."
Ye Yang sighed, and then said: "Senior, you are seriously injured. I can naturally see that your five internal organs and lung meridians have been severely damaged. Although I can transfer your life essence to help you relieve your injuries."
"But if you want to cure it completely, you need to find the Nine Veins Spiritual Ginseng. I don't have any of this treasure in stock."
Hearing the words 'Nine-Veined Spiritual Ginseng', the old man frowned slightly, obviously he had also heard of the reputation of this thing.
He sighed, "The Nine Veins Spiritual Ginseng is extremely precious and has been extinct for many years. I'm afraid it can only be found in the royal secret vault or in the palaces of several Immortal Kings."
“I wonder if there are any other alternatives besides this one.”
Ye Yang shook his head: "The other condition may be more difficult than this. It can also be treated with fresh real inner elixir."
Those who have reached the realm of True Man are extremely powerful. Their inner elixir is extremely precious and occasionally leaks out. It can also be bought and sold, but the quantity is very small.
Because the birth of a fresh real inner elixir represents the death of a real powerful person.
But fortunately, this is a method that is more traceable than the Nine-Veined Spiritual Ginseng.
The beautiful middle-aged woman secretly shed tears, heartbroken: "Father, there are famous doctors everywhere in the world of cultivation. I will take you to find them step by step. I don't believe it. Is there really no such antidote in the world?"
The old man reached out and stroked the woman's head, then said, "Rong'er, don't worry. I am over 200 years old. I have experienced many ups and downs and have seen through life. For me, life and death are no longer of vital importance."
"It's just that you haven't grown up yet. Once I die, you will feel sad to hand over your century-old foundation to others."
"Sir, you are indeed a natural born doctor. You can tell the severity of my son's injury with just one look. I wonder how much better you are than the doctors in the capital."
This old problem of his has been seen by countless people, but few people can see the root cause of the problem.
Although the person in front of him was not very old, he was able to tell what the problem was just by taking his pulse.
This shows that the opponent is indeed extraordinary, and even his control over the power of life is a bit too terrifying.
He looked at the resolute and strong figure, and an unfathomable feeling arose in his heart.
"I'm not sure. Removing the blood from the lung meridian is not something that the life force can do."
This is true. He is not a professional doctor or alchemist, but he is good at using life essence.
"Sir, I have here a secret scroll of the Three Purities of Biluo from the ancient Senluo Sect. It uses the power of time as medicine and collects moisture from heaven and earth to make water pills and water medicines. It is the best for warming the human body. It also has clear records on the disease of old age, but the power of time is difficult to master."
"If you are willing to treat me, I will offer you my services with both hands."
"Oh?"
At this moment, the beautiful woman behind him suddenly spoke up: "Father, even Lord Luxian was tempted by the Biluo Sanqing Secret Scroll several times, but you never gave it to him. Are you going to give it away for nothing now? Besides, the power of time is hard to find in the world..."
“Shut up. Although the power of time is hard to find, there are always extraordinary people in the world who can use it for their own benefit. This fellow Taoist in front of you is an expert in this field.
After finishing speaking, the old man clasped his fists towards Ye Yang, and then said: "My daughter has been naughty since she was young, and I have spoiled her. She is naive and has offended you, fellow Taoist. I hope you can forgive me."
Ye Yang didn't take it seriously, but was surprised and asked: "Can you use the power of time as medicine to refine the water pill?"
The power of time has always been mysterious and unpredictable. This is the first time Ye Yang has heard of it being used as a power or medicine.
The old man nodded, and then said: "When I first got it, I also thought this thing was incredible, and I wanted to give it a try, but the power of time is hard to find, so I have never been able to do so."
When he said this, he inadvertently raised his head and glanced at the ghost-headed seven-ring knife on Ye Yang's back.
According to the rescued woman, the person in front of her had cultivated the power of time.
The power of time is difficult to grasp, but he has seen many strange people and things in his life, so he naturally knows that there are all kinds of strange people in this world who are born according to the will of heaven and earth and should not be taken lightly.
"In that case, I'll give it a try."
Hearing that Ye Yang was willing to help, both of them showed a hint of relief.
"But I can't guarantee whether it will succeed or not."
Ye Yang thought for a moment, then spoke.
The old man nodded and said, "That's natural. Please do your best, sir. No matter what the result is, I will be grateful."
"Please follow me, fellow Taoist."
He led the old man back to the old courtyard.
The old courtyard has a quiet and beautiful environment, with a strong lotus fragrance. The old persimmon tree is emitting inspiration, and the courtyard is filled with extremely powerful vitality.
