Chapter 509(2/2)
Li Muchan touched his chin and thought for a while, then shook his head: "I always feel something is wrong, so be careful!"
Everyone looked slightly stern. The last time they were plotted against, they had learned that it was difficult to guard against hidden arrows. It was always better to be careful and would rather be more prepared.
Xu Xiaorou put her left hand on her left eyebrow, looked at it for a while, and said, "That man seems to be injured."
"Go and have a look, but be careful." Leng Wushuang said.
Li Muchan hurriedly said: "Lake Master, I'd better go!... Everyone wait here first, so that if it turns out to be a trap, you can react!"
Leng Wushuang looked at him, saw his determined expression, and nodded slowly: "Well, let's go."
Xu Xiaorou hurriedly said: "Junior Brother Li, your martial arts are too bad, I'd better go!"
Li Muchan smiled: "I am not good at martial arts, but when it comes to being cautious, I am the most suitable. Senior Sister Xu, there is no need to worry. With the Lake Master here, how can my life be in danger?"
Xu Xiaorou hesitated for a moment, nodded slowly, and stopped arguing. The Lake Master has the ability to bring the dead back to life, so it doesn't matter even if Junior Brother Li loses his life.
Li Muchan clasped his fists at everyone, clapped his horse and rode, and soon reached the mountainside. In front of them, they were two middle-aged people, a man and a woman.
The woman's face was dark, her eyes were a little unfocused, and her life was about to be in danger.
The middle-aged man looked honest and honest, staring at the woman in his arms with his eyes wide open, his teeth clenched, his body trembling slightly, and he was extremely sad.
This situation was really pitiful, but Li Muchan's heart was as cold as snow. He walked closer and said warmly: "What's going on with this strong man?"
The middle-aged man remained motionless and ignored him.
Li Muchan lowered his head and looked at the woman. She was breathless and dying. She would die at any moment. He took out a poison-preventing pill from his arms and handed it over: "If she is poisoned, just take this."
The middle-aged man looked up, his eyes bloodshot, staring at Li Muchan.

****************
Li Muchan said: "Try taking this and try it. If you delay it for a while, it will be too late."
The middle-aged man took the red pill and put it to the woman's mouth without hesitation, but the woman's mouth was tightly closed and the pill could not go in.
Li Muchan said: "He chewed it up with your mouth and sent it in."
The middle-aged man hurriedly put the pill into his mouth, lowered his head and pointed it at the woman's mouth, and passed it.
The poison-preventing pill was extremely effective. A moment after the woman took it, there was movement. She moaned and slowly opened her eyes.
"Juan'er, Juan'er!" the middle-aged man was overjoyed.
The woman suddenly turned over and sat up, turned around and ran out, into the bamboo forest. The middle-aged man was stunned and wanted to chase after her.
Li Muchan stretched out his hand to stop her: "Wait a moment and let her go."
"This...?" The middle-aged man looked at him doubtfully.
Li Muchan said: "When the elixir works, it needs to expel the poison from the body."
The middle-aged man suddenly realized it. He scratched his head in embarrassment and said with his fists in his hands: "I haven't asked you your name yet, I'm Song Jiatian!"
Li Muchan said: "Li Zhu."
Song Jiatian said in a solemn voice: "Master Li, I can't repay you for saving my life. If I am sent to you in the future, I will not hesitate to die!"
Li Muchan shook his head: "I don't dare to take it seriously. I was just following orders. I am a disciple of Xinghu Xiaozhu, and I came to save people on the orders of the Lake Lord."
"Xinghu Xiaozhu?" Song Jiatian was shocked and said in surprise: "But the Xinghu Xiaozhu of Wushuang Xiaozhu on Luoxing Lake?"
Li Muchan nodded.
"I have admired you for a long time!" Song Jiatian was overjoyed and praised: "All the disciples of Xinghu Xiaozhu are unparalleled talents. It is really disrespectful!"
Li Muchan smiled: "I'm just an ordinary person, I don't dare to act like this."
The two chatted for a while. Song Jiatian was very enthusiastic. Knowing that Li Muchan was a disciple of Xinghu Xiaozhu, he no longer worried about his wife.
Li Muchan breathed a sigh of relief. He used his telepathy. The two people were open-minded and not enemies. It was just a coincidence that they met bandits on the road and were plotted and poisoned.
Soon the middle-aged woman came back with a blushing face. The darkness on her face had completely faded away, and she was fair and delicate, but she was still a beautiful woman with charm.
Song Jiatian hurriedly introduced Li Muchan's identity to her. The woman bowed and was gentle and quiet. She didn't say much and only looked grateful.
Li Muchan led the two of them to the top of the mountain, where Leng Wushuang and the others were sitting on the ground talking.
***************************************************
***************
Song Jiatian and his wife saw the ceremony and thanked them for saving their lives. Li Muchan asked about what happened, who they met and why they were poisoned.
Song Jiatian said that they met a dozen people with good martial arts skills at a place ten miles away. The couple fought fiercely and finally broke through the siege. However, they were poisoned unknowingly and almost died.
As he spoke, he took out a silver needle from his arms. It was gray, as if it had been smeared with ashes on the bottom of a pot.
Li Muchan's expression changed slightly, and he turned to look at Zhang Qiaoyi. Her expression also changed, and she stared straight at the silver needle. She looked at Li Muchan and nodded.
Li Muchan looked at Song Jiatian and his wife. They seemed to be masters.
He said to Leng Wushuang: "Lake Master, it seems they are still here."
"Go and have a look." Leng Wushuang said calmly.
Li Muchan asked Song Jiatian to help lead the way and find those ten people. They were enemies and must be eliminated. Song Jiatian readily agreed.
The group of people walked for more than ten miles and came to the foot of a mountain. Song Jiatian pointed in the distance: "That's it! We were attacked right there!"
It was a mile away, halfway up the mountain. Leng Wushuang shook his head: "There is no one within five miles."
Song Jiatian became anxious and said hurriedly: "Master Lenghu, I will never make a mistake, this is it!"
His wife echoed: "Yes, that's right there!"
Zhang Qiaoyi and He Ruoshui looked at each other, glanced at Song Jiatian, and their eyes flashed.
Song Jiatian saw the expressions of the two women and said solemnly: "If I tell lies, I will be struck by thunder and die!"
Leng Wushuang looked at Li Muchan: "Maybe we can find it?"
Li Muchan nodded: "Let's try it."
He stretched out his hand and said, "Brother Song, please lend me a silver needle!"
Song Jiatian was still excited, he was stunned, and took out the silver needle from his arms: "Brother Li, are you going to...?"
Li Muchan smiled: "I have a tracking technique. I can borrow objects to find people."
"Very good!" Song Jiatian breathed a sigh of relief.
He was most afraid of being wronged, and he was secretly grateful for Li Muchan's trust.
Li Muchan held the gray silver needle and closed his eyes motionless, as if he was feeling something on the needle. After a moment, he opened his eyes and pointed to the left: "In this direction!"
Leng Wushuang said: "Lead the way."
Several people turned to a winding path. The path became narrower and narrower, with only room for one person and one horse. Leng Wushuang said: "Abandon the horse and walk."
Everyone tied their horses to the nearby bamboo forest and set off on the road.
Li Muchan's Qinggong failed, so Leng Wushuang tied a bamboo cane around his waist. The bamboo cane was soft but could support him to slide forward silently.
*************************
We walked straight ahead from the Yangchang Trail for about ten miles, and finally came to a mountain wall. There was no path, only a cliff covered with bamboos and canes, going straight up and down, making it impossible to climb.
Everyone turned to look at Li Muchan.
Li Muchan frowned, pulled out his long knife, tapped the stone wall with the handle, and quickly turned around and said, "It is indeed empty. There should be a way to get in."
Leng Wushuang walked to him, her white right palm gently pressed against the stone wall, motionless.
After a while, she moved five steps to the left, put her right palm on it again, and pressed it lightly. There was a muffled "bang" sound, the stone wall cracked, the stones fell, and in front of her was a dark stone cave.
The round hole is half a person's height, and a whooshing cold wind blows out from it, fresh and biting.
"Sure enough, there is a mechanism!" Xu Xiaorou praised.
Li Muchan looked at Leng Wushuang. Such inner strength was truly amazing. None of the masters in Canghai Mountain could match her. She was really formidable.
