It was obvious to all of them that Xia Shiqing was proficient in medical skills. In this situation, she was the only one they could think of.

Ling Ning sent Xia Shiqing the news that the little girl was safe and asked for her opinion. After a while, Xia Shiqing wrote back saying that although the situation sounded very pessimistic, she was willing to give it a try and would arrive within two or three days.

The three of them discussed it and decided to wait until Xia Shiqing arrived. Now they would go back to Ping'an Village before making plans.

This time the three of them put on cloaks and pretended to be businessmen and returned to the village in a low-key manner to investigate. They came to the market with the most people and wandered around the market. Since many nearby fishing villages were destroyed, many businessmen ran to Ping'an Village.

Purchasing made the market more lively than before. The fishermen were shouting hard about the fresh fish they had just caught, and the merchants were also trying their best to bargain, and it was bustling.

The three of them walked around for a while, and Qian Meier suddenly pointed to the front and said, "Look, it's that mother-in-law!"

Lingxi said: "Humph, is this the monster? I really want to rush up and kill her right now!

Ling Ning said: "We might as well go over and have a look."

When I came closer, I saw the old woman selling a basket of fresh fish. Although these fish had been out of the water for a while, they looked very fresh, not inferior to those just caught, but the price marked was higher than other fish.

It was much higher. Many merchants stopped in front of her and tried to bargain, but she just shook their heads.

Qian Meier said: "Mother-in-law, can you make this fish cheaper?"

The mother-in-law shook her head.

Lingxi said: "Your fish seems to be no different except that it is fresher. Why is it so expensive?"

The mother-in-law still shook her head.

Ling Ning saw that she looked dull, as if she was wearing a mask on her face, with no expression at all. It seemed that nothing in the world could shock her slightly.

He suddenly noticed that Wang Laosan, the drunkard that day, was also selling fish, so he called out to the two women: "Don't worry about this mother-in-law for now. Before Shi Qing comes, we'd better not alert the snake and come with me."

He took the two girls to Wang Laosan's stall, and Wang Laosan was shouting loudly at this moment.

"Brother, do you still remember me?" Ling Ning took off his cloak and asked.

Wang Laosan stared at him in confusion, obviously forgetting what happened that night.

Ling Ning leaned forward and whispered: "I want all your fish, but you only need to tell me about Li Er, how about that?"

Wang Laosan's expression changed, he shook his head and said, "I don't know what you are talking about."

Ling Ning said: "Are you hiding something?"

But Wang Laosan just shook his head, "If you don't want to buy it, don't disturb my business and go away!"

Ling Ning still wanted to speak, but suddenly she heard Ergou from the village loudly shouting: "Hurry...someone, hurry up! There are corpses floating on the beach! So...many! Come on, hurry up!"

Seeing that Wang Laosan and the mother-in-law made no progress, the three of them had no choice but to follow the crowd of spectators and walk towards the beach.

Many villagers have gathered around the beach, but they are all hiding and watching from a distance. There are seven or eight corpses floating on the sea, and three or four of them have washed up on the beach. The degree of damage to these corpses is quite high, and most of them are "broken" and "flesh and blood".

"Fuzzy", obviously they were all torn to pieces by the monster beast, which also shows the ferocity of the monster beast.

Lingxi sent a message to the two of them: "Many of these people followed Huo Jingyu to hunt monsters. Unexpectedly, they all died tragically."

Qian Meier said: "It seems that their trip is not going well. I hope they can escape."

At this time Ergou hurried over again, shouting as he ran: "The village chief asked if there are any monks! Huo Daxia and the others need help! Is there any monk who knows medical skills?"

The three of them quickly stopped Ergou. Ergou couldn't explain clearly after talking for a long time, so he could only drag the three of them towards the inn in the village.

When they arrived at the inn, they discovered that it was Huo Jingyu and the other three who had escaped. The situation was not optimistic.

Wen Hao had a broken arm, and his face was ugly. The wound was hastily bandaged with clothes and was still oozing blood. Wen Xi looked sluggish, and there was no time to bandage the many wounds on her body. She looked anxiously at the unconscious Huo Jingyu.

Huo Jingyu's face was pale, and he was lying on the bed shaking all over. He kept mumbling to himself, but he couldn't hear clearly what he was saying.

Wen Hao was overjoyed when he saw the three people here. He quickly stood up to greet him but almost fell down, "Three fellow Taoists! I didn't expect you to be here too! It's great! Junior Brother Jing Yu urgently needs someone to help him with his kung fu, please...please...

Bit...cough cough cough!"

Before he could finish his sentence, he coughed violently, staggered and almost fell down. Fortunately, Wen Xi held him up.

Qian and Ling helped the brother and sister aside and bandaged their wounds to stop the bleeding and heal them.

Ling Ning used his pupil technique to observe Huo Jingyu's body and found that the real energy in his body was almost dry. No wonder he was unconscious! If it had been half an hour later, he might have died!

He pressed the opponent's chest and slowly injected the true essence. The true essence in his body was like the Yangtze River, easily filling the "small pool" in Huo Jingyu's body. Huo Jingyu's true essence was replenished, and his whole person became quiet.

He came down and fell into a deep sleep.

Wen Hao and Wen Xi brother and sister on the side took some more pills with the help of the two girls, and their faces were finally not so ugly. Wen Xi was still a girl after all, and could no longer hold on and fell into a deep sleep. Wen Hao was still trying to support him.

.

Wen Hao said: "Many... thank you all very much! Junior Brother Jing Yu... he... is he okay?"

Ling Ning said: "Nothing, he just consumed a lot of energy. I injected some real energy into him and he should be fine."

Wen Hao said: "Thank you very much!"

Lingxi said: "What happened to you? Why are you in such a mess? Are only the three of you left alive?"

Wen Hao sighed: "A group of us touched the location of the monster and were quietly setting up formations to kill it... Unexpectedly, we were noticed by the monster. We were killed in a panic. Only the three of us were there.

Barely escaped back..."

Lingxi asked doubtfully: "Don't you have immortal weapons?"

Wen Hao said with difficulty: "That immortal weapon requires a lot of real energy to control. We originally had enough numbers, but those casual cultivators actually got into a mess when they faced the enemy... and the formation of gathering spiritual energy was too late to complete, so we were defeated by that

The monster was killed by surprise! Even...hey!"

Lingxi said: "What? Brother Hao, why are you hesitating? Is there something that you can't say clearly?"

Wen Hao's face changed several times, but he finally said: "Hey! The immortal weapon was lost by us! It was left on that mountain! I...I think this is a violation of the sect rules, and I can only die to apologize!"

Ling Ning said: "You can go back and get it after you have recovered from your injuries. Brother Wen, don't worry."

Wen Hao said anxiously: "No! That immortal weapon was just recast and has not been refined yet. If it is found by other monks, it will be a failure! We can only apologize with death!"

Qian Meier said: "Why do you have to worry? Not everyone can refine immortal weapons easily, right?"

Immortal tools of this level often have their own intelligence and the ability to protect themselves. Not everyone can refine them. To be its master, you must have strength.

Wen Hao shook his head and said dejectedly: "To be honest, this fairy weapon was given to it by the elder of Junior Brother Jing Yu. It is a 'first-order fairy weapon' that has just had its spiritual intelligence wiped out. It is not yet complete."

The casting is completed. The Valley Master heard that there is a very rare ancient monster living near the mortal continent, so he sent us to hunt and kill it in order to complete the final 'casting soul' of the immortal weapon. This is also the test that the Valley Master gave us! Now the immortal weapon

The weapon is like a newborn 'baby', which can be easily refined by anyone. Once the immortal weapon is refined, not only will its grade drop significantly, but in all likelihood, it will never be found again. I'll wait...

…Hey…I won’t be able to see the Valley Master again!”

Qian Meier sighed: "I really don't understand why you dare to challenge such a ferocious beast without being fully prepared."

Wen Hao said: "We were too impatient... We misjudged the ore before and lost a piece of 'marrow'. Junior Brother Jing Yu was eager to make up for it... and we were fully prepared this time. The formation was almost

It was about to be completed, but who knew it started to rain heavily! A few casual cultivators foolishly ran to a cave to take shelter from the rain, not knowing that it was where the monsters lived... Next thing you all know, we were killed and caught off guard.

If we hadn't used all the true energy in our bodies to forcefully use part of the power of the immortal weapon, I'm afraid the three of us wouldn't have been able to escape."

Ling Ning said: "With the current situation of the three of you, it is impossible to go back to get the immortal weapon. It is better to take good care of yourself and wait until the injury is healed before going back."

Wen Hao said: "In the Sword Forging Valley, the sword has always been in people's presence, but the sword dies and people die! I boldly implore the three of you to help us get back the fairy weapon from the monster's habitat! The three of us are very grateful!"

Qian Meier said: "This will cost our lives. We don't have the guts to challenge that fifth-level monster."

Lingxi, a businessman at heart, "smells" the business opportunity, "If I help you get it back, what compensation can you give me?"

Wen Hao smiled bitterly and said: "If it were anyone else, it would be easy to say, but as the deputy master of Lingbao Pavilion, Miss, what treasures have you not seen? I'm afraid I can't afford the price, and besides, we haven't repaid you for your life-saving kindness yet...

"

Lingxi snorted and said, "That's true. You can't use fairy weapons as rewards, right?"

Wen Hao said: "Of course it can't be done. Hey, forget it, we can only leave it to fate."

Ling Ning suddenly said: "How about I find it for you?"

Wen Hao's eyes lit up, "Fellow Taoist, are you serious?"

Ling Ning said: "This is natural. You can't trust me, can you?"

Wen Hao shook his head, "Of course not. Even if this fairy weapon is taken away by Your Excellency, it is better than being lost for no reason... If the elders in the valley ask about it in the future, we will have an answer."

What he means by this is to imply that if Ling Ning embezzles it, he will definitely ask the elders in the valley to come forward to get it back. Knowing the whereabouts of the immortal weapon is much better than losing it for no reason.

Ling Ning naturally understood what he meant, and he had no intention of keeping it for himself. He just wanted to sell a favor to Sword Forging Valley. After all, the piece of "marrow" he had might really need them to smelt.

"Then I'll take a trip."

Wen Hao was overjoyed when he heard what he said, "What kind of reward do you want, my friend? We still have more than two million spiritual stones, and we can give them to you!"

Qian Meier said anxiously: "Xiao Ning, you are crazy! That is a fifth-level monster, aren't you kidding with your own life?"

Ling Ning said: "Mei'er, don't worry, I'll come back as soon as I go. You should know what I'm capable of."

Qian Meier said: "No, I want to go with you no matter what!"

Ling Ning shook his head and said: "I'd better go alone. There are so many people that it will inevitably attract the attention of monsters. Mei'er, believe me, nothing will happen to you!"

After his persuasion, Qian Meier gave up the idea of ​​going together. Although Lingxi was worried about him, she couldn't help him and could only wish him good luck.

Wen Hao said: "I finally tried my best to launch the fairy weapon and hit the monster, and then I escaped with my life. I think the fairy weapon should still be in the largest cave in Beihao Mountain. I have a magic talisman here that can conceal the aura.

I also ask fellow Taoist to bring it with me, but unfortunately this is the only one left. The effect can last for an hour... There are also two million spiritual stones here, please take them with me, fellow Taoist..."

Ling Ning said: "I will accept the spiritual talisman, but I don't need the spiritual stone. You only need to promise me one thing, and I will naturally bring the immortal weapon back to you."

"What's the matter?"

"Brother, please swear with your Taoist heart. If I can find the immortal weapon, brother will owe me a favor. If I need it in the future, please help me as much as possible."
