Chapter 233 Mixing Poison

Li Muchan and the two girls left the Holy Snow Peak and headed east to return to the royal family in Penglai. The journey was long and it would take a month to travel.

After leaving the Holy Snow Peak, Li Muchan became taciturn and didn't say a word for a long time. He was always a little distracted. Although he did nothing wrong and kept following the two women, the two women were not very satisfied. They felt that he was like a wooden man and was too weird.

It's boring.

Wang Shuangfeng respected Li Muchan. If Li Muchan didn't speak, she wouldn't complain and would just follow him silently. Besides, she was very quiet by nature, so it wasn't unusual for the two of them not to say a word for a long time.

But Li Yujiao couldn't. She looked cold, but she couldn't bear the silence. She kept talking to Wang Shuangfeng, and would come over to chat with Li Muchan from time to time, teasing him to talk.

Li Muchan's umming and mingling was so perfunctory that she was quite annoyed. Later, she simply ignored him and kept whispering to Wang Shuangfeng.

Within two days, the two women had become very close to each other and talked about everything. Li Muchan secretly wondered that he really couldn't understand women.

But he didn't care about others and kept immersed in the Nine Turns of Marrow Cleansing Sutra.

Although the Nine Turns of Marrow Cleansing Sutra is difficult to practice and he cannot figure out the way, he does not give up. Once he really masters this sutra, his internal strength will be enough to rank among the top masters.

Although you can't be the best in the world, you don't have to be bullied anymore. You can always run if you can't fight. If you have deep internal strength, you will have fast qinggong and run fast.

Moreover, he had a vague feeling that his indestructible magic skill had not made any progress. He might have practiced it incorrectly and should have been beaten. Simply moving it with internal force was of no use.

However, if this method is used in conjunction with it, the Vajra Indestructible Divine Power will definitely be able to advance to a higher level, the inner strength will be profound, and the progress of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Power will also be accelerated. This is an absolute truth.

Unfortunately, the Nine Transformations of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra is indeed difficult and contains profound Buddhist principles. To achieve true emptiness, it is really not within your own realm.

At this moment, he was a little annoyed. His meditation skills were not deep enough and he could not reach the state where everything is empty. Otherwise, practicing this skill would be a matter of course.

However, there are many Buddhist disciples in the world. Those who practice the Kong Sect and those who do not practice martial arts at all are all in vain. No one cares about what they do. Once they practice martial arts, they will fall into the You sect, which is absolutely not allowed.

I can be considered a member of the sect. If I want to practice the Kong sect, it is difficult to break through the barriers and step into two rivers at the same time.

He never gave up. The temptation of the Nine Turns of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra was too great. It was comparable to the Heaven-Observing Man-Shen Illumination Sutra. How could he give up the delicious food in his mouth?

Although he is an eminent monk and has a refined state of mind, he cannot give up decisively. If there is a chance, he will always fight for it. The goal of being the best in the world supports him.

Along the way, he thought hard. Although he could now concentrate on four things, all his thoughts were on thinking about the Nine Turns of Marrow Cleansing Sutra, and his mind was absent.

In the early morning of this day, Li Muchan woke up from his trance. He looked around and saw that it was an inn. He had no memory of when he checked in or how he moved in. He looked like a drunk person.

He shook his head and laughed, pulling his mind out of the Nine Turns of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra. Over the past few days, he felt like he was possessed by a demon, trapped in the Nine Turns of the Marrow Cleansing Sutra, and it was difficult to extricate himself.

Now it seems that there is no progress at all. It is impossible to practice the Nine Turns of Marrow Cleansing Sutra. He really wonders what kind of peace of mind the eminent monk who originally created this sutra has.

His mind was like a sword, cutting off distracting thoughts and no longer thinking about the Nine Turns of Marrow Cleansing Sutra. His whole body suddenly felt light, as if he had escaped from the mire.

At this time, footsteps came, followed by a knock on the door.

Li Muchan closed his eyes, and the scene outside suddenly appeared. Not only that, his eyes in the sky turned clear, and the scene of the entire inn was revealed before his eyes.

"Feng'er, Miss Li, come in." Li Muchan said in a loud voice.

The door of the room was pushed open, and the two women came in hand in hand. In the past few days, the relationship between the two became deeper and deeper, as if they were the same person, inseparable. Li Muchan was amazed.

Wang Shuangfeng was dressed in a green shirt, and Li Yujiao was in a white shirt. They bloomed like two flowers, their faces lighting up the whole room, and Li Muchan felt dazzled.

Since receiving the Nine Turns of Marrow Cleansing Sutra, Wang Shuangfeng's temperament has changed drastically. She has become much more cheerful, her negative energy has completely dissipated, and she has regained her liveliness as a young girl.

Li Muchan smiled and said, "Go out to eat?"

Wang Shuangfeng shook his head and said: "Uncle Master, we have already called for someone to bring it in in a while. We won't go out, so as not to disturb you because of the distractions."

Li Muchan smiled and said, "You have worked hard these days. You haven't noticed anything unusual."

When the two girls saw this, they were very happy to know that he had woken up from the demon. Wang Shuangfeng smiled and said: "Uncle, don't worry, there is nothing unusual, no one is paying attention to us."

Li Muchan nodded and said with a smile: "That's good. It seems we left in time."

The Wang family competes with Sheng Xuefeng every year. This is not a secret, and no one knows about it. And the Nine Turns of Marrow Cleansing Sutra is definitely not coveted by anyone.

"It's unfounded to worry!" Li Yujiao curled her lips and said calmly: "No one in our Holy Snow Peak will leak the secret, who knows?"

Li Muchan smiled and shook his head: "Miss Li, don't underestimate the people in the world. There are many people who are good at calculating routes and have secretive thoughts. This is not the Holy Snow Peak!"

"Hmph, are all of us, Saint Xuefeng, fools?" Li Yujiao frowned.

Li Muchan smiled and said: "The disciples of Saint Xuefeng are innocent in nature and very cute. However, after all, the environment is not complex enough and they do not have a deep understanding of the sinister nature of people's hearts."

Li Yujiao curled her lips and said, "Huh, there are a lot of horse thieves on the prairie. We often go to fight them!"

"That's different." Li Muchan shook his head.

Wang Shuangfeng pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Uncle Master, you keep calling her Miss Wang. It's too young. How about calling her Yujiao?"

"No!" Li Yujiao said hurriedly, glaring at her: "Feng'er, don't make any bad ideas!"

Li Muchan smiled: "Then let's call you Junior Sister... You have worked hard on this journey. The climate of Shengxue Peak is pleasant, and it is truly a paradise!"

Li Yujiao suddenly smiled and nodded.

Li Muchan smiled secretly. At this moment, someone knocked on the door outside. A waiter came in carrying a mahogany box, bowed and said: "Master, this is breakfast, please use it slowly."

After that, he opened the wooden box, and the aroma suddenly overflowed. There were three layers inside. On the first layer were two plates of vegetables, two plates of vegetarian dishes on the top, two plates of meat dishes on the bottom, and a soup and a few steamed buns on the bottom.

Li Muchan smiled and nodded, thanking the waiter.

The waiter resigned respectfully, and Li Muchan smiled and said, "It's time for dinner, let's eat!"

He stretched out his hand to take the chopsticks handed over by Wang Shuangfeng. He was suddenly startled, his face changed slightly, and he tapped the chopsticks extended by Li Yujiao: "Wait a minute!"

Li Yujiao was about to eat a meatball when she was suddenly hit by Li Muchan. Her hand trembled immediately, as if she had been struck by an electric shock, and a tingling sensation went straight to her heart.

"What?" Li Yujiao raised her head.

Li Muchan shook his head and said, "This food is inappropriate, so you'd better not eat it!"

"Is it poisoned?" Li Yujiao frowned, put down her chopsticks, pulled out a silver hairpin from her head, and inserted it into the bowl, but the color did not change.

Li Yujiao looked up at Li Muchan and said calmly: "Senior Brother Li, you are too careful!"

Li Muchan shook his head: "It's better not to eat."

Li Yujiao smiled disapprovingly: "If it is poisonous, will my silver hairpin remain unchanged?"

Li Muchan frowned, stared at several plates of dishes, and said, "You try them one by one."

"Okay!" Li Yujiao looked at him, but finally nodded, and ordered four bowls of dishes one by one. As for the last dish, there was still no change.

Li Yujiao smiled and said: "Look, you are indeed too careful. One year you were bitten by a snake, and ten years you were afraid of well ropes. Have you been poisoned?"

Li Muchan said: "The Gongsun family's poison is hard to guard against, so you can't be careless!"

"Yes, the Gongsun family's poison is really powerful!" Wang Shuangfeng said helpfully.

"How do they know we are here?!" Li Yujiao shook her head and said disapprovingly: "Don't worry now, let's start eating!"

Li Muchan still shook his head and said calmly: "Prick the buns again!"

Li Yujiao was a little impatient and hummed: "You, you are really..., okay, okay!"

She pricked it helplessly, then pulled it out, raised it in front of Li Muchan, and said with a smile: "Take a look! What's there...Eh!?"

Her expression suddenly changed, her eyes widened, and she looked straight at the silver hairpin. At this time, a section of the silver hairpin turned black, as black as if it had been burned by fire.

"This...this...is someone really poisoning?!" She looked at Li Muchan in disbelief.

Li Muchan nodded slowly: "It seems true."

Li Yujiao took a breath and stood up quickly. Li Muchan hurriedly said: "Wait a minute!"

Li Yujiao slowly turned her head to look over, and Li Muchan said warmly: "Junior sister, what did you do?"

"Find the waiter and catch the poisoner!" Li Yujiao said, gritting her teeth. She really didn't expect that someone actually poisoned her.

This time, if Zhan Ran had not persisted, he would have been fooled! ...My mind is wonderful and invulnerable to all poisons, but Sister Wang and Zhan Ran were poisoned, and I was completely useless!

Li Muchan shook his head and said, "There's no need to go. You can't catch it, so just sit down."

"Then let's follow the plan?" Li Yujiao pondered for a moment and said.

Li Muchan nodded in approval. She was able to quickly adjust her mentality and calm down her anger, which was indeed impressive.

Wang Shuangfeng shook his head and said: "It's useless. It should be the poison administered by the Gongsun family. The poison they administered is so weird that it's impossible to hide it from them!"

Li Muchan said: "Forget it, let's go."

Li Yujiao pointed to the wooden box and said: "Senior brother, only the steamed buns are poisonous. You should eat these vegetables to avoid hunger on the road."

Li Muchan laughed and looked at Wang Shuangfeng.

Wang Shuangfeng frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "Uncle, are all vegetables poisonous?"

Li Muchan nodded approvingly.

Li Yujiao wiped the silver hairpin with a cloth to restore its shine, then pricked the steamed bun, and it was as smooth as ever, with no change. She pricked the dish again, and it immediately turned black.

I tried this several times, and the result was that if I pricked only the steamed buns or only the vegetables, the silver hairpin did not change, but if both were pricked at the same time, it would turn black. Obviously, if you eat one kind alone, it is not poisonous, but if you mix them together, it will become a serious problem.

Poison, she had never heard of such a method of poisoning.

"What a Gongsun family!" Li Yujiao snorted bitterly and inserted the silver hairpin back.

"Let's go." Li Muchan said.
