A+ A- Turn Off Light

The poison that ‘Ah Zhu’ had been hit by was very powerful.

But in front of them, besides Jiang Ran, an expert in using poison, there were two others who were experts in using parasites.

So it wasn’t difficult to deal with this point in ‘Ah Zhu’s’ body.

After about a tea or so of time had passed, ‘Ah Zhu’ had opened her eyes.

Slightly confused, she glanced at Ana, who was standing beside her and looking at her with complicated eyes, before she was creeped out and hurriedly reached out to cover her face:

“It’s not me! I didn’t!”

Ana froze:

“Didn’t what?”

“Nothing!!!”

As if he had been caught red-handed doing something wrong, ‘Azuma’ shook his head vigorously.

Yet, feeling that this explanation, probably wouldn’t be accepted, he simply changed the topic:

“I’ve fallen into your hands again, kill me if you want to, no need for nonsense.”

“…… If you want to kill you, why would Your Holiness bother to detoxify you?”

Ana was speechless for a while:

“How were you poisoned?”

What her initial origin was, Ana wasn’t sure.

But after falling into the old matriarch’s hands, in order to be able to make her trustworthy, she was naturally proficient in compulsion, and there was also an innate compulsion in her body.

Wanting to poison her was actually very difficult.

It was precisely for this reason that the kind of poison she had originally been poisoned with, which was enough to kill her, didn’t kill her, allowing her to still have the instinct to call for help.

That was how Jiang Ran heard that faint cry for help.

‘Ah Zhu’ shook her head after a moment of silence:

“I don’t know either ……

“After leaving the Compassion God Cave that day, I was thinking of traveling far away.

“But because of some delays, I didn’t go …… As a result, this morning, I realized that there seemed to be people snooping around the Flute Clan land.

“It was a very cautious snooping, careful, as if afraid of being discovered by something.

“It would have been impossible for me to have discovered that seeming gaze if I hadn’t had the chance to do so.

“Subsequently the man who was snooping around the Descendants’ land realized that I had discovered him.

“He then ran, I chased, chased, chased to …… this neighborhood.

“But I still didn’t see him, then I felt a sharp pain coming from the meridians in my body, and when I completely came to my senses, it was now.”

She glanced at Ana:

“What I said is true!”

“Oh.”

Tang Yuyi said thoughtfully:

“Then what was the reason you were delayed and didn’t travel far?”

“Huh?”

‘Ah Zhu’ blinked, then said:

“Nothing, that’s not even the point. The point is, someone spied on …… and poisoned me ah.”

“Is that so?”

Tang Yuyi said with a smile:

“Why does it always feel like, you don’t seem to mean what you say.

“The other party was snooping on the Flute clan land, so what were you doing?

“Is it snooping with him?

“But what is there for you to snoop on in the Descendants’ land?

“The old clan leaders are dead.

“The Compassion God is also under house arrest.

“Who is it you wish to see?”

She said this as a question, but her eyes always hovered over Ana if anything.

The smile in her eyes was a little bit promising.

Ana had also heard the sound outside Tang Yuyi’s words and shook her head helplessly:

“Miss Tang, don’t talk nonsense ……”

‘Ah Zhu’ then glanced at Ana and said:

“Someone is spying on you all …… This is sort of the information that I used my life to help you guys probe, how come you guys don’t pay any attention to it at all?”

“We take it seriously.”

Tang Yuyi said:

“It’s just that the person who did this to you would have probably already left by now.

“Even if we show how much importance we attach to it, it’s still of no use.

“With this effort, we might as well discuss something more interesting.

“I say, at that time in the Compassion God Cave, this kid saved your life, you shouldn’t be …… oooh oooh oooh ……”

Without waiting for Tang Yuyi to finish, Jiang Ran had already covered her mouth:

“Alright, cut the crap.

“The poison in this girl’s body has been detoxified.

“If there’s nothing else, why don’t you return to the Flute Clan for the time being to recuperate?”

“Ah?”

Tang Yuyi said in a hurry:

“Without bringing along?”

“No.”

Jiang Ran said flatly:

“Adding to the chaos.”

“…… Makes sense.”

Tang Yuyi nodded repeatedly.

‘Ah Zhu’, on the other hand, said unconvincingly:

“How is it adding to the chaos? I’m also capable!!!”

“…… Being poisoned and not being poisoned to death is indeed considered a bit of ability.”

Jiang Ran said:

“Only, it doesn’t seem quite enough.

“The girl should still listen to this honored one, first return to the Flute Clan to wait and recuperate her body.

“Ana, give her a token so that she can take the trust of the Wu Di.”

“Good.”

Without any hesitation, Ana took out an object from her bosom and handed it to ‘Ah Zhu’.

‘Ah Zhu’ hesitantly took it:

“What are you guys going to do, will it be dangerous?”

“The girl cares a bit too much.”

Ana said expressionlessly:

“These things, have nothing to do with you.”

“…… Who wants to care anymore?”

‘Ah Zhu’ said with her neck raised as if she had blown up:

“Nope, I don’t care at all.

“I care about you guys to die …… love to die or not, all die out to be clean!”

While saying this, this side huffed and puffed and climbed up from the stone:

“I’m leaving! Don’t need to send!!!”

Said, angry swooshing towards the direction of the flute clan, gait is still a bit hobbled, obviously not in particularly good condition, while walking, but also muttering.

Ana frowned slightly:

“What is she saying?”

He was a little hard of hearing.

Tang Yuyi rolled her eyes:

“She said, ah, dog man, really not a thing, thanks to me being afraid you’d die, staring outside for so long.

“The death or life of the flute clan has nothing to do with me …… Whatever, love to die or not!!!”

“……”

Ana scratched his head:

“Is this scolding me?”

“Say, Lao Tian ah, how did you and Ah Zhu get together back then? Did she take the initiative, or did you?”

Tang Yuyi looked at Ana with interest.

Ana thought for a moment and shook her head:

“I don’t know ah …… can’t remember, many years ago.”

“Guess it’s the other girl who took the initiative, what can you, an elm brain, take the initiative to do?”

Tang Painting Yi said, looking at Jiang Ran:

“Brother-in-law, since the people behind the scenes took a shot at her, what if she can’t safely return to the Flute Clan?”

Jiang Ran reached out and tapped on her brow:

“Excuses, you just wanted to leave her behind to watch the fun.

“The reason the backstabbers poisoned her and tried to kill her was because she found out.

“Worried she’d tell us about it.

“Now that she’s told us about it, they don’t think about how to deal with it, and they still have time to kill her?”

“……”

Tang Yuyi pouted her lips, this was something that she was naturally able to think of.

It’s just that this ‘Ah Zhu’ obviously had some not-so-similar feelings towards Ana.

It should be the effect created after Ana saved her life in the Compassion God Cave yesterday.

If she were to be kept by her side, watching her and Ana interact, it would be quite interesting to think about it.

Unfortunately, ah, brother-in-law wouldn’t agree.

Ana also heard Tang Yuyi’s meaning and frowned for a moment.

Just then, she heard Tang Shiyi say softly:

“Alright, don’t delay here.

“Let’s continue on our way.”

Encountering ‘Ah Zhu’ was just a small episode, the Ten Thousand Poison Cave was still waiting ahead.

Jiang Ran and his group didn’t dwell on this topic much, so they continued on towards the Ten Thousand Poison Cave.

As for what kind of story Ana and ‘Ah Zhu’ would have afterward.

Jiang Ran didn’t mean to say that he didn’t care …… As an outsider looking in, Ah Zhu had already been dead for many years, and still hoped that Ana would be able to move on.

It’s just that this matter isn’t that simple either.

On the one hand what kind of feelings did ‘Ah Zhu’ have for Ana.

Gratitude, or hatred, were yet to be known.

On the other hand, even if Ana had these thoughts, looking at ‘Ah Zhu’s’ identical face, would she think of Ah Zhu, who had once died tragically, and thus feel that she was sorry for all the things she was doing now?

This trip to the Ten Thousand Poison Cave was bound to be an extremely dangerous one.

All these messy things can be put on the back burner.

When everything was safe, Jiang Ran would be happy to carry a wine pot, eat peanuts, and take a good look at the development of the plot here.

But now was not the time to do such things.

The Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons seems to be quite far away, but the distance from the Flute Clan is only half a day’s light.

Waiting for the sun to set, the group had already arrived at the front of the Ten Thousand Poison Cave.

Here is also manned by human smoke.

It was the disciples of the Flute Clan who guarded the Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons.

The Flute Clan had changed their clan leader, and the disciples and priests guarding the Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons knew about it.

Seeing someone coming from afar, they hurried out to greet them.

“Greetings to the Clan Chief and several honored guests.”

At the head of the group was the High Priest of the Ten Thousand Poison Cave, with a respectful attitude.

Ana gently waved her hand and asked:

“In these few days, is the Ten Thousand Poison Cave still quiet?”

“Other than yesterday when there were parasites stirring within the Ten Thousand Poison Cave that seemed to want to fly out in search of something, everything has been quiet.”

The High Priest looked up at Ana with a somewhat complicated expression.

Between several years, this person had been shouted down by the Flute Clan, but he did not expect that when he met again today, the other party would become the Flute Clan’s patriarch.

Ana nodded, knowing that yesterday’s compulsion agitation was because of Compassion Goddess Mu.

At that time, the place where she fought with the old clan chief was directly above the Compassion God Cave.

It was close to the Descendant Clan’s land, and still relatively far from this Ten Thousand Poison Cave, so it was less able to affect this place.

However, he was not asking about this matter:

“Have you seen any suspicious people, wandering around here?”

“Never.”

The High Priest shook his head categorically:

“The guards outside the Ten Thousand Poison Cave are tight, no outsiders have ever wandered here.”

“Hmm.”

Ana nodded and glanced at Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran then asked:

“Do you want to rest for the night?”

“Your Holiness, having traveled thousands of miles to come here, my subordinate can’t wait a moment longer.”

The Dodo Demon Underworld King snatched his hand and said:

“Let’s just hurry in, get the stuff and hurry back.”

The remaining few people were indifferent and just looked at Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran smiled:

“That’s fine, it really has been a long wait, so let’s go in.”

He said, nodding to Ana.

Ana then stretched out his arm as a guide:

“Your Holiness, please.”

The High Priest frowned slightly, the Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons was, after all, a forbidden place for their Flute Clan.

Originally, he had thought that the Patriarch had come right after he took office because he was worried that there would be some kind of change on this side of the Ten Thousand Poisons Cave, so he had come over to check it out.

But did not expect, actually want to bring these outsiders, into the Ten Thousand Poison Cave to find something?

Then he subconsciously said:

“Patriarch, outsiders are not allowed to enter the Ten Thousand Poison Cave.”

“Hmm?”

Ana’s eyes narrowed slightly:

“What did the High Priestess just say?”

Although there was no internal energy surging, the wind was tumbling, and Ana’s face wasn’t as majestic as the old patriarch’s.

But for some reason, the High Priestess’s heart was suddenly a little weak.

It was as if he had seen the old patriarch in his youth.

Subconsciously, he changed his mouth and said:

“I …… am saying that since the patriarch has said so, outsiders are also allowed to enter the Ten Thousand Poison Cave.”

“Hmm.”

Ana withdrew her gaze and nodded gently:

“Don’t worry High Priest, I know the rules.

“It’s just that this matter is a big deal, and rules are dead people are alive.

“We can’t use dead rules to trap the living.

“In addition, I and the old patriarch is not yet the same …… high priest understand what I mean?”

“Yes …… I understand.”

The high priest bowed in a hurry.

Ana didn’t look at him again, but said to Jiang Ran:

“Your Holiness, inside please.”

“Good.”

Jiang Ran smiled and glanced at the High Priest who had already seen sweat on his brain before raising his steps forward.

In front of the Ten Thousand Poison Cave was a patchwork of buildings, and amongst the buildings were also high platforms used for rituals.

Beyond here, up the steps, was the entrance to the Ten Thousand Poison Cave.

“When it’s time for the ritual, the Flute Clan will gather in this square.

“Ordinary disciples hold their rituals in the square, while those who hold positions and are experts within the clan will join the old patriarch and enter the Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons for their rituals.

“It’s just that for so many years, I really didn’t know that there was another mystery within the Ten Thousand Poison Cave.

“After we go in, I’m afraid we’ll just have to look for it.”

Ana said while leading Jiang Ran and the others to step inside the Ten Thousand Poison Cave.

As soon as they entered, Tang Yuyi had already explored her hand, and in her palm was a big, fat, colorful, fat snake.

This snake struggled in her hand, turning its body to try and wrap around her wrist.

Unfortunately, it was pinched to death by her, and after a few moments, it was a bit breathless.

She said to Jiang Ran as if offering a treasure:

“Brother-in-law, how about this for snake soup? It surely smells sweet to the core.”

“…… Luo Qingyi didn’t come, who’s going to make it for you?”

Jiang Ran’s sentence immediately struck Tang Yuyi down a bit.

Ana, on the other hand, said helplessly:

“Lord Holy Maiden, don’t casually arrest the poisonous creatures within my Ten Thousand Poison Cave ah …… This snake, according to the outside world’s court, is considered to be a third dynasty within my Ten Thousand Poison Cave.

“Just let it live.”

“Ah?”

Tang Yuyi froze for a moment:

“Such a big head? That’s not a good idea to just eat it.”

She looked at the snake with some pity.

Perhaps it was because this snake was really a bit old, and seemed to more or less carry a bit of spirituality, by Tang Wuyi’s eyes, the whole snake wasn’t too good, cowering, desperate to turn its belly over, indicating that it was already about to die and wasn’t good to eat.

Tang Yuyi then threw the snake out with a flick of her hand.

This snake landed in a deep pit on one side.

After entering the Cave of Ten Thousand Poisons, there was a stone bridge that went straight ahead, and both sides of the bridge were deep pits.

Inside were densely packed poisonous insects, poisonous snakes and the like.

These poisonous insects and snakes climbed along the rock wall, the snake that Tang Wuyi caught just now was hanging on the stalactites on one side of the rock wall, and did not know if it was a bit meaningless to live, after seeing Jiang Ran and his entourage come in, it even pounced on Tang Wuyi directly.

After seeing Jiang Ran and his entourage come in, he even pounced directly on Tang Yuyi.

This will be thrown into the pit, only to feel the preciousness of life.

The whole snake coiled into a ball, shivering.

Tang Yuyi looked and felt quite amused:

“It still knows to be afraid …… of the poisonous insects in your Ten Thousand Poisons Cave, could it be that it has become fertilized?”

“Although it’s not becoming refined, it’s obviously going to be a bit smarter than the ordinary ones.”

Ah Zhuo laughed:

“These poisonous snakes and poisonous insects are not considered to be compulsions …… According to the rituals, they are all servants of the Compassion God.

“In the past, the Compassion God traveled across the 100,000 mountains and was accompanied by ten thousand insects.

“Within the Ten Thousand Poison Cave the same sacrifice to the Compulsion God, naturally there must be ten thousand insects accompanying them.”

“These things …… are estimated to be unknown to your Compulsion God.”

Jiang Ran laughed dumbly.

Ah Zhuo smacked his lips:

“Legends have suddenly come to reality, and looking at these now, it does seem a little …… well, a little odd.”

“But in this deep pit, I think there is also compulsion, right?”

Ye Shocking Frost suddenly said:

“I’ve heard of some compulsion refining methods, and this seems to be very appropriate.”

“That’s right.”

Ah Zhuo nodded:

“From time to time, a compulsion will be born and fly out from within this pool.

“Landing at the feet of the statue of the Compulsion God.

“Over the years, these parasites have become more and more numerous ……”

The crowd walked forward as they spoke.

A huge cave entrance appeared in front of the crowd again.

“The Ten Thousand Poison Cave isn’t very big, and further on is where the Compassion God statue is.”

Ana said:

“Yet I wonder, is there another entrance?”

“We can only look for it.”

Jiang Ran casually said, and a clear sky had opened up in front of him.

It was a space that was even more enormous than the Ten Thousand Poison Pit outside.

A huge statue stood in the deepest part of this cave.

The feet of this statue seemed to be stepping on a great distance, looking down, one could not clearly see the statue’s feet, and was only able to see the tumbling darkness, which were all parasites.

The cliff is facing the waist of the Compass God, you can see the navel of the Compass God ……

On the way up, there was the upper half of the Compassion God’s body.

The appearance was generally the same as the real Compulsion God.

It was just even more gigantic.

Her hands, placed in the characteristic salute of the Flute Race, were different.

It appeared even more mysterious and solemn.

In particular, a hole was broken open at the top of her head.

It allowed starlight to hang down and scatter on the top of the statue’s head, adding a bit of divinity.

The starry light enveloped the statue’s back, as if it was draped in a cloak made of stars.

Tang Yuyi and Ye Jingxue watched with jaws agape.

Just listen to Tang Wuyi murmur:

“This thing …… can really look a bit divine.

“When the Compassion God sees it, he’ll probably want to pay homage to it.”

“Why don’t we go back and bring the Compassion God to see her statue? I wonder what her expression would be?”

Ye Jingxue suddenly suggested.

Tang Yuyi nodded her head repeatedly:

“This is good ……”

Just as the words reached here, she saw Tang Shiyi suddenly reach out, pointing at the fingertips of the Compassion God’s statue and said:

“There, isn’t there something there?”
