The city walls of Lingsnake City are taller and more solid than other cities in the mainland, with very complete city defense facilities. There are also traces of repair on the city walls. Fights between humans and monsters are often staged here. Unlike cities in other parts of the mainland, they are just a symbol.
The investigation of the people entering the city was very tight. If Liu Yan hadn't brought them in, he would have been arrested. He saw two mercenaries being captured by the guards with his own eyes.
The golden tickets are useless in Lingsnake City. They have their own monetary system. They have completely separated from the management of the Holy Land and become an independent empire. For such remote places, the Holy Land is powerless. As long as the Lingsnake Gate does not cause trouble in the Central Plains, they do not want to work hard to expedition.
When they arrived at a manor, Liu Yan and Qin Yantong were dismounted together. The relationship between the two was very fierce along the way, but Shi Jue and Lu Fengxian stared at each other, forming a sharp contrast.
Lu Fengxian entered the mansion and ran away. He didn't know what conspiracy he was going to do.
After Liu Yan arranged for Shi Jue and Qin Yantong to live, she left.
"The Lingser Gate is divided into two parts, Shadow Gate and Poison Gate. Shadow Gate is good at assassination, and Poison Gate is good at making poison. When going out for missions, they usually cooperate with actions." Qin Yantong whispered after Liu Yan left: "They are very hostile to the Holy Land, especially the Medicine Hall. Liu Yan's master is the elder of the Outer Gate of the Poison Gate. But Lu Feng was a disciple of the Shadow Gate first."
"The Shadow Sect and the Poison Sect are not harmonious, right?" Shi Jue asked.
"There are some contradictions, but the Lingser Sect is still quite united." Qin Yantong said.
"Please take this. Take one every day." Shi Jue handed her a bottle of detoxification pill and said.
"What do you think?" Qin Yantong took the pill and asked.
"The key question is how to get the detailed map of Yin-Yang Cave Heaven." Shi Jue said: "I can't expose my identity as a pharmacist, and there is no Mercenary Hall here. Moreover, Lingshemen is very alert to strangers, and it is very difficult to get the detailed map of Yin-Yang Cave Heaven."
There is another point he didn't say. Qin Yantong has no internal strength. If there is any accident, it will definitely be a drag on Shi Jue. He can't say this.
"I'll ask Liu Yan first." Qin Yantong said.
"No! Our intentions cannot be revealed yet. Let's act according to the opportunity. If it really doesn't work, let's leave Lingsnake City and go to the outside world to ask about the situation." Shi Jue said.
There are a large number of towns around each first-level main city. Those places should not be as strong as this place. If there is really no way, they can go to Jiugong Mountain to find them. He dare not take risks with Qin Yantong. He spent so much effort and could not give up halfway.
"That's all." Both of them were extremely wise, but they couldn't come up with any good solutions at this time.
"Zhongquan, my master wants to see you." Liu Yan walked in and said. It turned out that she left to explain the situation to her master.
"Medicinal materials..." Shi Jue said.
"Don't worry. The master has agreed." Liu Yan smiled and said, "He just wants to thank you in person for saving us."
"Please." Shi Jue thought for a while and said. He felt a little uneasy in his heart.
I came to a medicine house. The decoration was very simple, but there was a huge medicine garden.
"Master, I brought them." Liu Yan said.
"Come in." An old voice inside said.
The three of them walked in. An old man came out and looked at Shi Jue with sharp eyes. It seemed that he wanted to see through Shi Jue's thoughts. Shi Jue smiled calmly.
"The few medicinal herbs you are looking for are not helpful to Ling Mei's illness." The old man said. Shi Jue sighed in his heart. He was only concerned about lying to Lu Fengxian and did not think of this problem.
"It was a prescription given to me by an imperial pharmacist." Shi Jue said. Shi Jue did not dare to take it lightly anymore and hurriedly responded seriously.
"This prescription..." the old man stopped halfway.
"..." Shi Jue immediately said a prescription. This is not a problem. Even if he had a question for himself, he would immediately include these medicinal herbs in a prescription.
"Wrong, how can the Nine Yin Jue Zhi be so easy to solve." The old man said. Then he walked to a pavilion in the courtyard and sat down and said, "Sit down."
"Thank you, my uncle." Shi Jue sat down after thanking him.
"Didn't the other party explain the Nine Yin Jue meridians?" the old man asked. Shi Jue passed his test and he did not look at him with aggressive eyes.
"I said that since I was a child, I knew she had the Nine Yin Jue meridians." Shi Jue said.
"The Nine Yin Jue Zhi and the Heavenly Fight for Life is not such an easy problem." The old man said: "Although I don't know how to relieve this patient, I have to persuade you to give up. It's better to let Ling Mei live a safe life at home for a few years, so why bother to take her outside with her to work hard."
"My sister is my only one. As long as there is hope, I will not give up." Shi Jue said firmly. Qin Yantong next to her blushed slightly when she heard this. Although she knew that Shi Jue was telling a lie, she felt sweet in her heart when she heard her ears.
"Oh." The old man shook his head and said, "Young man, not bad."
"Old man, I want to ask you something." Shi Jue asked.
"Please tell me." The old man's attitude towards Shi Jue changed.
"I heard that if there is a way to convert the Nine Yin Qi and Yang Qi in the sister's body, although it cannot be cured, it can also prolong her life." Shi Jue thought for a while and said, "I found out that there is a Yin Yang Cave Heaven in Jiugong Mountain, which has such magical effects. So this time I came to the swamp to collect herbs, and I brought her there. I wonder if the old man knows where the Yin Yang Cave Heaven is?"
"Yes, it's in the hinterland of the middle section of Jiugong Mountain." The old man said, "But I still advise you to give up this idea. Even if the Holy Sect goes, you won't get any advantage. If you are a perfect emperor, you will die if you go, and you will also lose your sister's life."
"If there is a detailed map, I'm willing to try it out." Shi Jue sighed and said, "My sister and I have been dependent on each other since childhood. I really can't bear to watch her die. If she doesn't find a way to prolong her life, she will only have two years to live..."
"What's the use of giving you a detailed map?" The old man shook his head and said, "The Yin-Yang Cave Heaven of Jiugongshan is now occupied by a two-headed dragon, and no one knows the grade. It appeared a thousand years ago when the city was siege, and several holy sects joined forces to repel it. After a thousand years, I'm afraid that humans can no longer deal with it."
"Even if I die, I will try it." Shi Jue shook his head and said, "I really don't know how to survive after losing my sister. I would rather be buried with her in the Jiugong Mountain." Shi Jue said without any pretentiousness.
"The detailed picture of entering the Yin-Yang Cave of Jiugongshan is not a secret in Lingser City. But if you think it clearly, you may not be able to come back after this trip." The old man said with concern. He was already moved by Shi Jue's words.
"Please help me, my husband." Shi Jue said. He didn't want to stay in Lingser City any longer. He didn't know what would happen after a long time.
"Yan'er, go and get the picture."
"Master." Liu Yan was obviously unwilling to do so. She was kind-hearted and couldn't bear to watch Shi Jue and sister die.
"Go. I have had this kind of pain. My teacher is still blaming myself now." The old man sighed and said, "I am happy to be resentful in my life. I didn't expect that once hesitation made my teacher regret it for a lifetime. Go."
"Yes, master." Liu Yan glanced at Shi Jue and walked into the inner room. After a while, she held a wooden box and handed it to Shi Jue. Shi Jue opened it excitedly and took out the map inside. Sure enough, it clearly marked the location of Yin and Yang Cave Heaven.
"Thank you for your accomplishment," Shi Jue said excitedly.
"I hope you can get the fate of heaven and come out of Jiugong Mountain alive." The old man said with emotion: "Liu Yan, you want to send them outside the city."
