Gu Changsheng originally had the idea of refining poison, but someone deliberately arranged this task. However, this task did not make him feel despair, but instead made him feel a little excited.
But the feeling of being dug into a pit and forced to jump down was really uncomfortable, which made him feel extremely depressed!
In fact, in the heavenly palace of the immortal world, it is a normal thing for a certain great immortal to set up a small trap and a group of lesser immortals to be deceived into a charred mess on the outside and tender on the inside.
The world of cultivating immortals is originally a place where the weak prey on the strong. If the weak are cheated, it can only be regarded as an experience.
However, the opponent's little trick really didn't faze him. Instead, it was more like an opportunity, an opportunity for him to increase the power of his magic weapon; an opportunity to lure the snake out of its hole and find out the enemy's situation.
"As long as I know it was that guy who committed the murder, he will die miserably!" When he thought of this, Gu Changsheng raised the corner of his mouth and sneered.
He will definitely let everyone in Jiuxiao Sect know that as long as anyone dares to attack him, even if he turns the entire sect over, he will find his enemy and cut him to pieces with a thousand swords!
…………
In the northwest section of the Yunlong Mountains, two flying rainbows, one white and one green, flew away quickly and did not stop until they flew over a deep valley.
Gu Changsheng stood on the back of the green snake and looked into the distance. At this time, Elder Li waved to him, and the two of them flew down one after the other.
Not far ahead is the 'Zhenbian Pavilion' that is responsible for guarding the Poison Swamp. It is a building built on the mountain wall of the valley. There are also some small restrictions set up in the valley to prevent invasion by foreign enemies.
The two of them had just flown down a short distance when they touched a formation wall and were knocked back by a burst of green light.
However, Elder Li did not panic. Instead, he took out a jade tablet from his arms, injected it with magic power, and looked forward. A white light suddenly shot out from the jade tablet and flew into the restriction, and then told
Gu Changsheng, the two of them need to wait patiently for a while.
"Come in!" An old, dry voice came out from within the array wall, as rough as sandpaper, which made people's hearts tighten when they heard it.
The unpleasant sound was still echoing in the valley, but the restriction in front of them receded like ice and snow, and a passage appeared in front of them.
Seeing this scene, the two of them did not dare to neglect and flew quickly along the passage into the forbidden area.
The two landed on a platform carved from huge rocks. Gu Changsheng looked up and saw a six-story building with a "Zhenbian Pavilion" plaque hanging in front of him.
This attic is not very wide, with the facade only four or five feet wide; but it is more than ten feet high, and it looks a bit like a tower.
When he walked into the attic, he realized that the structure of the attic was a bit like a cave. The two of them walked inside for hundreds of steps without seeing anyone.
A faint stench came out from inside, and it became stronger the further inside.
"Elder Li suddenly came to visit, what's the point? Oh, it's really strange that a new person came this time! Another disciple of Nafeng made a big mistake and was exiled here?" From the deep cave abode
An old man walked out. His clothes were in tatters. The old man looked crazy and had no appearance of a normal person.
Gu Changsheng was startled, but he didn't mean to look down upon it. The poison would corrode the surrounding things, including clothes. In addition, the stench emanating from the cave was only the poisonous smoke that emitted such a stench when the poison was refined.
.
Based on this, Gu Changsheng could determine that this old man was probably a reclusive master of poison refining, so he appeared in front of the two of them dressed like this.
Only when his eyes had completely adapted to the dark environment around him did Gu Changsheng truly see the situation in the attic clearly.
There were many rooms on both sides of the corridor where the two of them were. Looking in from an unclosed door, there were many poisonous weeds neatly placed on the ground.
Each poisonous weed will be placed in a separate location, and these numerous poisons will never be mixed together.
There are also many strange utensils placed in the other room, including long-necked pottery pots, twisted pottery bottles, funnel-shaped glass cups, and an alchemy furnace with broken inner alchemy that turned black.
Seeing these strange things, even Gu Changsheng, known as the 'Poison Immortal', took a deep breath and suddenly felt that he might have met a rare soulmate.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the attic. It stinks so much that you can't stand it!"
The owner of the voice is a lean old man in his fifties. He has a long white beard on his chin, but has a pair of small eyes that wander around. He looks very shrewd. At first glance, he thought it was a bird.
The old mountain macaque who became a spirit.
It's just that the skin on this person's body is extremely dry, and there are all kinds of strange mottled spots on his body. It is obvious that there is a lot of residual poison left on his body.
Elder Li covered his mouth and nose, led Gu Changsheng, and followed the old man to the third floor of the attic. There was a simple living room. The three of them sat down in front of a stone table. The old man even made a pot of tea.
"This boy is actually Lei Linggen? He is young and has already successfully built the foundation. Why was he sent here? Elder Li, is this boy a disciple of the ancestor? What heinous crime has he committed?
That's why you sent him here?" The lean old man shook his head repeatedly, feeling sorry for Gu Changsheng.
Elder Li, however, suppressed his anger and did not lose his temper. He repeatedly signaled the lean old man to stop talking about this topic. The lean old man immediately understood and quickly shut his mouth.
"Gu Changsheng, I have met this senior brother!" Gu Changsheng stepped forward and saluted, breaking the awkward atmosphere at the table.
"Junior brother Gu, there is no need to be polite. My name is Peng Liang, and I am the master of the townside pavilion of 'Hundred Poison Swamp'. From now on, just call me Senior Brother Peng!" Peng Liang first rolled his eyes at Elder Li, then turned to Gu with a smile.
Changsheng said.
"Senior Brother Peng, I chose this garrison position! If it's convenient, please help me familiarize myself with the surrounding environment!" Gu Changsheng took out the copied map of the 'Hundred Poison Swamp' and pointed to the location of the 'Immortal Devouring Valley'.
Seeing the location pointed by Gu Changsheng, the old man was a little surprised. It was the first time for him to see a disciple like Gu Changsheng who was not afraid or panicked when he came here, but instead went to familiarize himself with the environment with an indifferent expression.
He couldn't help but look at Gu Changsheng again, but there was still a sneer at the corner of his mouth. It is not difficult for a person to pretend to be calm, but the difficult thing is to be able to remain calm in the field, and to be stationed all year round without affecting his cultivation.
"This kid will be under my control from now on. You can go back!" Peng Liang suddenly turned to look at Elder Li and said coldly.
Elder Li didn't care. He stood up and saluted the old man, covered his mouth and nose and ran downstairs as if he was fleeing.
"You should know a lot about poisonous weeds, right? From the moment you walked into the attic, not only did you not cover your nose, but you also looked at it carefully. I guess you must have made poison before." The old man glanced sideways at Gu Changsheng and said with a smile.
"I recognize all common poisonous weeds..." After Gu Changsheng took a sip of tea, he suddenly frowned, opened the lid of the tea bowl, carefully looked at the tea leaves inside, and immediately said with a smile, "For example, if you are in this tea
At the same time, 'Gelsemium', 'Sour Soap' and 'White Linghua' are added. If these three poisonous herbs are put alone in the tea, it will be very difficult to swallow and the tea will be highly toxic."
"But if you put them into tea in a certain proportion, it can become a very unique tea, which has the effect of strengthening the body and replenishing qi and blood."
After listening to Gu Changsheng's speech, Peng Liang was stunned for a moment, but then he sneered again:
"Boy, come with me and let me see what you are capable of!"
Peng Liang stood up immediately. Gu Changsheng smiled slightly and stood up too, following behind the old man.
"What poisonous weeds are these?"
"Thunderflower, dead soul weed, green leaf tea, red stick grass..." Gu Changsheng came to a room full of poisonous weeds, and while walking behind Peng Liang, he casually called out the names of the poisonous weeds.
Peng Liang had a smile on his face at first, but as he listened, a solemn expression appeared on his face.
Because Gu Changsheng actually knew many poisonous weeds that were rare in the world, some of which even he himself only knew one name but had not yet figured out their poisonous effects. This made him secretly surprised.
"Very good, I didn't make a mistake. You are a cultivator who knows how to refine poison! You are qualified to station in that position. This is the formation token here. If anything happens in the future, you can come to me at any time!"
Peng Liang's face showed a look of affirmation, and he quickly took out a white jade plaque from his body and stuffed it into Gu Changsheng's hand.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Peng!" Gu Changsheng said respectfully.
"Ahem! I hope you can leave here alive. I'm not kidding. At least half of the people who were thrown into this 'poisonous swamp' to guard the border area will not be able to go back! Since you know these poisonous weeds, you should also know this
There will be some monsters in the swamp. If you encounter something strange, I advise you not to come forward. Your own life is the most important thing. Do you understand?" Peng Liang said with a solemn expression.
Gu Changsheng nodded quickly in agreement.
After hearing these slightly harsh words, not only was he not angry, but he felt more favorable towards the old man.
I feel that this person is much better than the head of Ye Feng. At least this old man is not a hypocrite.
After explaining the things that needed to be paid attention to in the 'Hundred Poison Swamp' one after another, Peng Liang hurriedly packed up, took Gu Changsheng and flew away.
