Chapter 1524 Dreaming Back to Eternity, the Past Is Like Smoke (5)
Ling Zi has been fighting for thousands of years, fighting with her companions and other killers.
In her eyes, no one can be trusted. Everyone can become the person she wants to kill, and they may also become the person who kills her.
"Kill others before others kill you!"
This is Ling Zi's creed.
Therefore, she could not understand Shennong Tuo's philosophy, let alone the fact that the other party would not kill her.
After a moment of silence, Ling Zi suddenly snorted, turned her face to one side, and said coldly: "What you do is your business, but I'm not begging you not to kill me."
"Of course." Shennong Tuo said with a smile: "Whether to kill or not to kill is my own choice. No matter what the future holds, I will not regret it at all."
"Humph, I wish you knew!"
Ling Zi's eyes were a little erratic, she didn't dare to look at Shennong Tuo, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
"correct."
The two were silent for a while, and Shen Nongtuo's voice sounded again: "Although your "Ziwei Heavenly Killing True Technique" is exquisite, there seems to be some shortcomings in the technique. If you practice this technique for a long time, it will give your body It creates a burden that even your saintly body cannot bear.”
"I know this."
Ling Zi lowered her head and said calmly: "From the day it is refined, the "Ziwei Heavenly Killing True Art" will continue to bite back my original power and erode my true spirit fire. Although this process is long, it will eventually end. There will be a day when it comes to the end, and that’s when I will die.”
At this point, Ling Zi suddenly smiled bitterly and said softly: "It's ironic to say that other saints have endless lifespan, but I have already foreseen my own death from the moment I became a saint."
"Then why do you want to practice this technique?" Shen Nongtuo frowned.
"Because I have no choice."
Ling Zi hugged her knees, stared at her toes, and said quietly: "The monks of the 'Holy Court' are not as glorious as you. We must always prove our worth. Once the Holy Court feels that we are of no use, we will He will eliminate us without hesitation. When I competed with another killer for favor, I was already at an absolute disadvantage. If I hadn’t gotten an opportunity at the moment of life and death and created the "Ziwei Heavenly Killing True Technique", I’m afraid that at that time I'm already dead."
"Although the "Ziwei Heavenly Killing True Technique" will continue to erode my original power, the speed of improvement is extremely fast, and the power is unparalleled. With this self-created technique, I was able to excel and was finally appreciated by the Queen Mother of the West. , gave me countless opportunities, and finally achieved enlightenment and became a saint. But only I know that the injuries in my body have been accumulated for a long time. Even if I become a saint, I can't make up for the lost original power, and the "Ziwei Heavenly Killing True Art" is still there It keeps eating away at my true soul, which is why I become possessed."
After listening to Ling Zi's words, Shennong Tuo had a complex expression and sighed softly: "It seems that you understand your situation very well."
"So what if you know?" Ling Zi laughed a little at herself: "Unless I am willing to dissipate this magical power, I can prevent the loss of the original power. But in that case, I will have no use value to Xianting. Queen Mother of the West can do it at any time It is possible for me to return to my original state. After all, my ability to become a saint was also cultivated by her."
"You're wrong. If you want to prevent the loss of the original power, you don't necessarily have to dissipate your magical power." Shennong Tuo said calmly.
As soon as these words came out, it was like a bolt from the blue, making Ling Zi's eyes widen and she turned her head sharply.
"What did you say? Do you have a way to cure me?" Ling Zi asked impatiently.
"I can't say I'm 100% sure, but I think it's at least 70%."
Shennongtuo pondered for a moment, then continued: "In your body, the demonic energy and the power of the stars collide with each other, forming countless whirlpool-like black holes. I have never seen such black holes before, so I have no experience. But according to my From my observations in the past few days, it is these black holes that are constantly eating away at your original power. If you didn't have the body of a saint, I would have been sucked into you."
Ling Zi was surprised after hearing this, and murmured: "Is it a whirlpool black hole? Why have I never discovered it myself?"
"Because these black holes are very hidden. They are hidden in your flesh and blood and cannot be detected by spiritual consciousness. I used special heavenly materials and earthly treasures to detect them."
When Shen Nong Tuo said this, he paused slightly and continued: "It's strange to say that these black holes seem to have a cycle, similar to the rise and fall of the tide. Whenever the tide recedes, these black holes will close. At that time The impact on you is minimal; and when the tide rises, the black hole will open to its maximum, and this is when you go crazy."
"That's it." After hearing this, Ling Zi nodded somewhat understandingly.
"You have been tortured for many years. Not only your body has been damaged, but your soul has also been severely damaged. In order to cure your injuries, you must first stabilize your soul. My white jade bed is made of 'Narcissus Ice Jade', which can help people concentrate. Jingqi helps people slowly repair their souls. Of course, monks under the sub-sage may not be able to withstand this cold air, but you have the body of a saint, and your body will not be damaged even if you are unconscious."
"No wonder."
Ling Zi hugged her knees with her hands, hunched her shoulders slightly, and muttered softly.
She just slept on this ice jade bed. It was really fragrant and sweet. In her dream, she went back to her childhood, playing beside her parents. Although thousands of years have passed, her parents' faces have long been forgotten, but that feeling of peace , but it made her feel extremely relaxed.
This kind of relaxation was something she had never felt in the thousands of years since she joined the "Holy Court".
"This is the first time I've encountered your injury, so I can only create my own method to treat it."
Shennongtuo didn't seem to notice Ling Zi's expression, and still said to himself: "During the days when you were in coma, I visited several dangerous places, picked a lot of herbs, and tested repeatedly with my own body, and finally found I have found a method of treatment. It’s just that this medicine requires the use of Xianting’s ‘forgetting to break the heart’, which relies on the method of fighting poison with poison to remove the toxicity of the previous medicinal materials before it can be taken by you.”
"It turns out. It turns out that 'forgetting to break one's heart' is what it does."
Ling Zi's voice became softer, her hands seemed to have nowhere to rest, and even her toes were slightly arched.
After a moment, she suddenly remembered something, raised her head suddenly, and asked: "I seem to have heard that you don't like to use poison. When you left the Medicine Court, you didn't take any poison with you. This 'forgot' Heartbroken, where did you come from?"
After hearing this, Shen Nong Tuo smiled slightly and said, "During the time when you were unconscious, I went to Kunwu Immortal Court."
"You're crazy!"
Ling Zi showed an expression of disbelief and shouted: "The Queen Mother of the West has issued a death warrant. The entire Kunwu Mountain is full of people who want to kill you. Do you still dare to go back at this time?"
"Aren't you going to kill me too?" Shen Nongtuo said calmly: "If I die in Kunwu Mountain, you can complete the task. Or are you saying that you don't want me to die now?"
"I"
Ling Zi opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but she didn't know how to speak.
For a moment, all kinds of thoughts came to him, and Ling Zi felt upset. Finally, he turned his face to one side and snorted: "I just don't want you to die in the hands of those maggots. You are my prey. I want to kill you with my own hands." kill you!"
After hearing this, Shennongtuo showed a smile on his face.
"If you want to kill me, you have to heal your injuries first. The medicine has been prepared. Take it quickly."
As he spoke, he waved his sleeves, and the liquid in the medicine furnace was taken out by him, and fell into a stone bowl. With a gentle push from Shennong Tuo, it quickly floated in front of Ling Zi.
Ling Zi took the stone bowl with a complicated expression.
She raised her head and glanced at Shen Nongtuo. The latter's eyes were as calm as water, with a faint smile on his face, as if the spring breeze in March was refreshing.
At this moment, Ling Zi felt a sense of relaxation and peace that she had never experienced before.
"Just drink"
After muttering something softly, Ling Zi held the stone bowl in both hands and drank the medicinal liquid in the bowl in one gulp.
As the medicinal liquid entered the abdomen, a warm medicinal power began to spread to the limbs and bones. The whole body was warm and felt an indescribable comfort.
When I woke up just now, there were still bursts of dull pain in my meridians due to the obsession. At this time, as the power of the medicine spread, these pains quickly disappeared.
Ling Zi squinted her eyes and looked at the remaining medicinal residue in the bowl, and actually had an urge to swallow them.
Fortunately, I held back at the last moment, otherwise I would have really lost face.
Ling Zi was frightened for a while, and looked up at Nong Tuo again, and found that the man in green had turned around, making medicine while studying his prescription.
It was strange to say that in just half an hour, she seemed to have become very familiar with this man.
Looking at the other person's thin back, Ling Zi suddenly remembered the legend about this man.
"Shen Nongtuo, do you really want to taste all the herbs? The Antarctic Fairy Continent is vast and vast, and there are many exotic flowers and plants in it. Even the bodies of saints like us don't dare to claim that we are immune to all poisons."
After hearing this, Shen Nong Tuo did not look back, but simply said: "I have observed that there are many errors and omissions in the ancient books. Now the continent is desolate, poisonous insects, poisonous miasma, ferocious beasts, and plagues are everywhere, and all living beings in the world are like An ant in the furnace is struggling to survive. If I want to practice medicine in the world, I must abandon the old and try to make a new one. If I want to create new medical skills, I must collect various medicinal herbs and then test them myself, so that I can get the correct prescription."
Having said this, he paused slightly and then continued: "Just like your injuries, you evolved the stars with demonic energy and created this constellation magic skill. It can be said to be unprecedented, so your injuries are also unique. If I don't Go pick various herbs and test their toxicity yourself, how can they heal you?"
"this"
When Ling Zi heard this, she was speechless and didn't know how to answer.
After a long while, I heard her voice faintly say: "Even if you can taste all the herbs in the world and have medical skills, you are only one person after all. No one in the entire 'Medicine Court' is willing to follow you. You alone want to change the entire world." Antarctic Fairy Continent?”
After hearing this, Shennongtuo sighed softly: "You are right, a person's power is limited after all, so I plan to record my medical skills, and recruit many disciples in the future to pass on my medical skills and teach me the right way."
"I can't tell that you still want to start a sect."
Ling Zi smiled and looked a little relaxed.
Her eyes slowly drifted out of the window. Different from the coldness in the thatched cottage, outside the window were green water, green mountains, and the sun was shining brightly, a beautiful scenery of an otherworldly mountain.
"If one day, I mean 'if', you really found a sect, why not call it 'Shen Nong Mountain'"
Ling Zi's voice was very low. Shennong Tuo was still making medicine, leaving only his back. I don't know if he heard it.
In the following days, Ling Zi lived in this inconspicuous thatched cottage.
She spent most of the time meditating on that white jade bed to heal her injuries. The "Narcissus Ice Jade Stone" was a rare treasure. Although the power of ice and cold was extremely overbearing, it was not harmful to a saint at all.
The cold air emitted by the white jade bed can help people calm down and heal their souls. Ling Zi practiced on the bed for a while, and could clearly feel that the injuries in her soul had improved, and she was secretly happy in her heart.
During the time when she was recovering from her injuries, Shennong Tuo spent most of her time outside collecting herbs, returning to her thatched cottage only every ten days.
Every time I return, I can only stay in the thatched cottage for half a day.
Because the medicinal materials needed to treat Ling Zi were extremely rare and the quantity was too large, Shennong Tuo had to go out for a long time to find medicine in order not to stop giving her medicine.
Unconsciously, Ling Zi found that she seemed to have changed, and she became more and more looking forward to Shennong Tuo's arrival.
However, Shennongtuo was in a hurry every time he came back. He was either diagnosing her injuries, studying the toxicity of herbal medicines, adjusting the dosage, and finally decoctions the medicine himself.
After drinking the medicine, Shennongtuo would use his spiritual power to help her channel her meridians.
This short hour was the only time she could talk to Shennong Tuo.
Whenever this happens, Ling Zi will feel very satisfied. Sometimes she even thinks, how nice it would be if this time were longer. How nice would it be if Shennongtuo didn't have to go out to collect herbs and could always be with her? If I don't have to go back to Kunwu Immortal Court to resurrect my life, would it be nice to stay in this simple thatched cottage with him forever?
But there is no "if" in reality.
The days passed, and the peaceful years finally came to an end.
On this day, after Shennong Tuo unblocked Ling Zi's meridians, he did not leave the thatched cottage as usual.
"The injuries in your body have now fully recovered. As for those whirlpool black holes, I have also used medicinal liquid to remove them."
"oh"
Ling Zi responded dully, her eyes completely devoid of the cunning look of the past.
The injury was cured, which meant that he had no reason to stay here.
Her eyes were a little wandering, and she turned to look out the window, not knowing what to say for a moment.
"Remember, when fighting with others in the future, don't overuse the "Ziwei Heavenly Killing True Technique". This technique is not perfect yet. Although it is powerful, it will swallow up your original power. These days, I just cured you The old wounds in the body, if you rely too much on this technique, will still be counterattacked by the technique in the future."
"knew"
Ling Zi nodded, her face a little complicated.
"Now that your injuries have recovered, it is your choice whether you want to kill me or not." Shennong Tuo said again.
