When the white-faced scholar opened his eyes again, he realized that he was lying on the bed, his injured arm was wrapped in bandages and his upper body was naked.

As soon as my body moved, the white-faced scholar felt pain, and then he realized that many fine needles of different lengths were inserted into his body.

When he saw these fine needles on his body, a strong sense of fear appeared in the white-faced scholar's eyes.

He surrounded the surrounding scene with caution.

The extremely luxurious house, the furnishings in the corners are not cheap. The paintings on the wall, at first glance, the white-faced scholar recognized that the paintings were the original works of a famous artist and were of great value.

When he tried to recall what happened before he fell into a coma, the white-faced scholar had just had some fragmentary scenes in his mind, and his mind hurt. The dizziness made the white-faced scholar lie back weakly. He now felt that there was no strength in his body.

It was not the feeling of hunger. The white-faced scholar now clearly realized that his body was weak and it was simply out of the ordinary. It seemed that he was very difficult and laborious to lift a finger.

This damn feeling made the white-faced scholar just want to go to a safe place and have a good sleep.

The consciousness in my mind clearly told the white-faced scholar that the place he is now does not seem safe.

Now, it is very likely that I was kidnapped here by the group of men in black last night.

The white-faced scholar's face was pale and indifferent, and the originally charming and indifferent cheeks could not find a trace of blood.

Although his strength was gone and his body was unable to move, the white-faced scholar still tried his best to mobilize the remaining internal force in his body and wanted to sense this area. However, no matter how the white-faced scholar wanted to mobilize the remaining internal force in his body, he could not tune it out.

Has internal strength exhausted become this?

It has been decades, but it is the first time I have become so embarrassed that I am now. Haha, Tianluo Needle.

The legend about Tianluo Needle first appeared five hundred years ago.

At that time, the Nanli Empire happened to face the situation facing the Beigen Empire today, that is, several major families have grasped the government affairs.

The rise of those major families is also coincidental, and most of them are lucky, because the previous generation of Li Emperor in the Nanli Empire was the man known as Wu Emperor. At that time, Nanli's territory had already radiated to the entire south at that time, and Nanli occupied a large area of ​​land.

Logically speaking, under such circumstances, Nan Li began to have some glory to re-establish the First Empire a thousand years ago.

However, Emperor Wu's sudden death caused the glory that had just appeared turned into a mirror and a moon.

Next, something that made the people of the Nanli Empire sad and made all the countries on the mainland applaud.

Because during the reign of Emperor Wu, he expanded the territory of Nanli alive, basically it was like conquering another Nanli Empire.

However, before the Emperor Wu concentrating on digesting this huge land, Emperor Wu passed away strangely. Although the prince of the Nanli Empire had already been established, and after Emperor Wu passed away, he successfully ascended the throne and inherited the mantle of his ancestors.

But, after all, he was the young man Li, who had just ascended the throne, and he was not a born genius. He could not beat those officials who had been in the court for most of his life in the way.

Not only officials, but also those generals who made great military achievements for the Nanli Empire during the reign of Emperor Wu were naturally very dissatisfied with this new emperor.

Therefore, for a while, except for the original territory of the Nanli Empire, the territory expanded during the Martial Emperor basically turned against the flag everywhere. Most of the generals and officials were ulterior motives and wanted to take advantage of the time when the new king had just taken office to become king, break away from Nanli's control, and let themselves live a life of solitary and widowed life.

Faced with the rebel intelligence coming from day to day, the new king was in chaos for a while, and even thought that the Nanli Empire was rebelling. Although he realized the situation with the help of the regent minister, the new king still didn't know what to do.

The hundreds of generals of the Nanli Empire and the generals who became famous during the Martial Emperor's reign were now some of whom were waving flags and shouting outside to become kings, including the millions of troops, who were also taken away by them.

Internal and external troubles, this is the first in the mind of that new king

The words that emerged first were always living under the glory left by his father. He always thought that after he took over that position, he still naively thought that he could achieve great things and surpass his father.

What about now?

What to surpass? Why are there thieves everywhere as soon as I ascended the throne and chaotic soldiers everywhere? This is different from what I saw and thought at the beginning. This mess, Father, teach me how to clean up it up.

Ministers, who can believe it?

These civil and military officials, will they become the next thief? They all want to kill me?!

The new king spent half a year in panic. Fortunately, a respected veteran Bai family in the Nanli Empire took action as the auxiliary minister to help the new king who looked extremely stupid.

Finally, under the great hardships of the veteran Bai family, many rebellions were finally quelled and the situation stabilized. However, Nanli also lost a lot of land in this chaos, and his territory shrank for a while.

Regarding the land in the Central Plains, Nan Li had to endure the pain and threw it out. This piece of meat, Nan Li's current situation, could no longer eat it.

After quelling the rebellion, the new king's ruling life was also a highlight. After hearing the strange rumors about his father's death, the new king immediately ordered the Bai family veteran to be fully responsible for the matter and must investigate the death of his father.

The veteran Bai family naturally believed a lot of rumors about this. After all, he was also famous and famous general during the reign of Emperor Wu. Although he didn't know much about the physical condition of the Emperor Wu, he would definitely not die of a strange disease like this.

Although this matter may not be as rumored, there must be something strange about it.

So, the veteran Bai family used Nanli's huge resource reserve at that time. After searching for a whole year, he finally found some clues about this matter.

According to the content found, the main reason for Emperor Wu's death seemed to be from a long needle called Tianluo Needle. The remaining ones were left, and the veteran Bai family knew nothing.

Even after five hundred years, no one has found out what material the thing was made of.

The only thing I know is that if the Tianluo needle is stabbed into the heart and lungs, then you will not be far from death. If those who have never practiced are stabbed into the body by the Tianluo needle, it will basically be difficult for even gods to save them.

Although Emperor Wu was a monk, he had no talent in his cultivation. Therefore, when he was stabbed into his heart and lungs by the Tianluo needle, he was just a cultivator who had just entered the grade level.

In addition, there was no concept of Tianluo Needle at that time, and the time between Emperor Wu’s toxin attack and death was only three days between the time between the attack of toxins. How could the imperial physicians in the Nanli Palace react?

Within five hundred years of later generations, the emergence of Tianluo Needle was slowly discovered among the southern countries. It was only in nearly a hundred years that it gradually spread to the Central Plains. It can be said that except for the Three Kingdoms in the North, there are legends about Tianluo Needle in the remaining local countries on the mainland.

It was not until these two generations that the Tianluo Needle was controlled in the Nanli Empire and handed over to the Zong Mansion for custody.

But who is the leader of the Zong Mansion now?

Zhou Dunyi

When he thought of Zhou Dunyi, the white-faced scholar's face turned paler. He knew that Zhou Dunyi was also involved in this plan, but wasn't the Tianluo Needle in the Nanli Empire in the hands of the Zong Mansion?

Could it be that the ambush he encountered was an order from Zhou Dunyi? Zhou Dunyi, is Zhou Dunyi going to destroy his mouth?

Just as the white-faced scholar was thinking this way, the door of the house was suddenly pushed open, and Qingtan and Ji Wuying walked into the house one after another.

Seeing the white-faced scholar Su Xing, Ji Wuying looked happy, walked up, sat next to the couch, and placed his hand on the white-faced scholar's pulse.

The pulse gradually stabilized, and it seemed that the toxins were suppressed. This Tianluo needle is very difficult.

I don't know if Zhou Dunyi is a good person or a white-faced scholar, but Ji Wuying is definitely a good person, so the white-faced scholar said hoarsely to Ji Wuying in a dry tone.

"Me, why am I here?"

Ji Wuying waved to Qingtan, then explained to the White-faced Scholar, and the White-faced Scholar.

He only breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, I didn't fall into the hands of the men in black, otherwise I would know whether I was living or dead now.

Ji Wuying took the warm water that Qingtan had just filled the teacup, and helped the white-faced scholar up with one hand. After feeding the white-faced scholar and drinking the warm water, the white-faced scholar's lips that were about to be cracked became a little rosy.

Adjusted the pillow on the bed and let the white-faced scholar lean on it. Ji Wuying crossed his legs and asked the white-faced scholar.

"What's wrong with you? Those five men in black are just five-level monks. Even if they join forces, they probably won't be the enemy of you, you, right? The Tianluo Needle will not have such great power."

The white-faced scholar smiled bitterly, looked up at the ceiling with his eyes, and said

"Tianluo needles originally did not have such power, but those five people seemed to be able to catalyze the progress of the toxin of the Tianluo needle, which made the internal force in my body be swallowed up quickly. Before I could pass two moves, I found that the internal force in my body was gone, and then I was defeated."

At the end of the day, the white-faced scholar's face was obviously a bit unkind.

As a monk who has passed that level, he was defeated in front of a five-level monk. I don’t know how many people would make this joke when it is heard. This matter is simply a shame for his white-faced scholar.

Hearing this, Ji Wuying shook her head helplessly, pressed a palm on the white-faced scholar's shoulder, and said in a comforting tone to the white-faced scholar.

"It's okay, don't you believe my medical skills? After you recover, I will take you to kill the man's mansion. Don't worry, I will definitely let you breathe a good sigh at that time."

The white-faced scholar frowned and spoke in confusion.

"That person? Didn't Tianluo Needle be kept in the Zong Mansion? Isn't that person Zhou Dunyi?"

Ji Wuying was stunned, her lips curled up, and she burst into laughter as if she had heard something big joke.

Even Qingtan, who did not dare to look directly at the white-faced scholar, couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckled after hearing the white-faced scholar's words.

Listening to the laughter of the two, the white-faced scholar's face became even more confusing, and he continued to speak.

"Is there anything wrong?"

Ji Wuying smiled for a while and stopped her smile and explained to the white-faced scholar.

"This is all the news from you many years ago. The Tianluo Needle has long been kept in the hands of the Zong Mansion. If Prince Zhou wants to target you, it will be enough to express his meaning. There are a lot of people who are willing to help Prince Zhou. How can you do that? What else does Tianluo Needle need?"

This is naturally a bit of a belittlement of the white-faced scholar. He is also the number one person after all. Even if Zhou Dunyi wants to attack him, it will take a lot of effort. Ji Wuying's words are a bit joking and liven up the atmosphere.

"Then, Tianluo Needle is now?"

The white-faced scholar nodded secretly. Although Ji Wuying's words meant to be mostly joking, what he said was reasonable. If a big man of Zhou Dunyi wants to deal with him, he would not use such means. Fortunately, Zhou Dunyi is not going to deal with him.

Otherwise, it would be a bit difficult for me to deal with myself with Zhou Dunyi's power. After all, I am only determined to return to Nanli, and at this critical moment, I don't want to offend someone like Zhou Dunyi.

Ji Wuying sighed long, looked at the white-faced scholar, and said

"Do you know where the Tianluo Needle in the Sect Mansion has been transferred?"

The white-faced scholar shook his head.

"Since I was controlled by Nanli, the Tianluo Needle has been stored in a yamen like the Zong Mansion that is closely related to the royal family. First, it is because the Zong Mansion has the defense of the Yulin Guard, and second, it is because it can be regarded as the use of the Tianluo Needle being brought to the royal family, and it has eliminated some other possibilities."

Ji Wuying paused, sighed helplessly, and continued to say

"Ten years ago, after Prince Zhou became Zongzheng, he wanted to ease the relationship between the princes and the royal family, so he handed over the custody of the Tianluo Needle to the princes who failed to fight for power. The princes also formed a small yamen to save the Tianluo Needle. It is also considered that Prince Zhou left a trump card for these princes to make them feel at ease. After all, in the years when our Majesty first ascended the throne, the princes were afraid that they would be hated by our Majesty, and they were worried that they would not be able to see the sun the next day after they fell asleep."
