Chapter 2091 There is a problem with the underground spiritual veins
When the villagers heard the tall old man's order, they all surrounded Xia Tian and the others. Especially those villagers who had already received needles were even more excited, fearing that they would be the next to die.
"What on earth did you do to them!"
The tall old man jumped down from the high platform, rushed to Xia Tian, and roared: "Who sent you to kill us?"
Xia Tian yawned lazily and said dissatisfiedly: "I have cured that idiot's disease.
As for why he died, don't ask me, you should ask yourselves."
"Still trying to shirk responsibility!"
The tall old man shouted violently: "That is a young man who is famously strong in my village. Even though he has been tortured by madness for more than ten or twenty years, he still has nothing to do. As a result, he vomited blood and died after being treated like this by you. It's not you."
Did it, who did it?"
"If you don't believe it, just wait."
Xia Tian was too lazy to explain more.
The tall old man and the villagers obviously believed that Xia Tian had acquiesced. Just when they were thinking about how to deal with these people, someone else screamed, spitting blood from the mouth, and fell to the ground.
This person had never been pricked with needles, so Xia Tian's head was obviously not to blame for what happened just now.
"ah!"
"Ah! Ah!"
Not long after, another person spurted blood one after another and fell to the ground.
"Most of them have never had acupuncture."
Shi Chun saw the clues and asked Xia Tian in a low voice: "Brother-in-law, are you really not taking revenge on them?"
Xia Tian curled his lips: "What qualifications do these idiots have to ask me to take revenge?"
"That's true, but what happened to them?"
When Shi Chun heard what Xia Tian said, he became even more confused.
"There is definitely something wrong."
Ning Ruirui felt that this situation was a bit strange. There was a vague sense of oppression in her heart, which made her have the urge to vomit blood. Then she felt a cool air flow pouring into her body, which instantly soothed her.
The feeling of oppression was relieved, and my whole body felt refreshed.
Looking back, it was indeed Xia Tian who had hugged her waist.
Shi Chun is okay, after all, she was purged by Xia Tian when she was eight or nine years old, so in terms of cultivation, she is actually higher than Ning Ruirui. After all, she is a senior cultivator.
More and more people were vomiting blood and falling to the ground. Among them, only two had been injected with needles by Xia Tian, and more people refused treatment.
Within a few minutes, those who doubted Xia Tian's medical skills knelt down and kowtowed to save Xia Tian from giving them injections.
Xia Tian has been too lazy to pay attention to them, because they were the ones who refused treatment just now, no one forced them, and now they are reaping the consequences, and they can't blame anyone.
"What exactly is going on?"
The tall old man also gradually understood that this matter could not be blamed on Xia Tian at all, but he also could not figure out what caused such a large-scale casualty of blood vomiting among the villagers.
As soon as he finished speaking, the tall old man suddenly covered his chest. He felt an extremely huge aura pressing towards him like a mountain. He was unable to resist at all. Then he spurted blood from his mouth and fell to the ground.
However, after all, he had been practicing for a long time, so this piece of hard work did not hurt his heart, and the injuries were much lighter than those of others.
Ning Ruirui couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when she saw this battle, and asked Xia Tian: "Do you know what this is going on?"
"It's not clear exactly what happened."
Xia Tian focused his gaze on a huge crack in the ground not far away, "But this huge spiritual pressure came up from the ground."
Ning Ruirui was stunned: "Underground?"
"right."
Xia Tian nodded and said lazily: "To be precise, it should be the underground spiritual veins. This is Zhongnan Mountain, the place where spiritual energy gathers. There must be spiritual veins underground. Many so-called hermits are also aiming at it.
This person came here to live in seclusion.
Now it is very likely that there is something wrong with the underground spiritual veins."
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
The tall old man endured the injury, stood up slowly, and shouted at Xia Tian: "You are here to confuse the public with your lies. The underground spiritual veins of Zhongnan Mountain are the veins of the true dragon that have been around for thousands of years. How could something happen?"
Xia Tian curled his lips and said with disdain: "Don't you know whether something will happen or not?"
"What do you mean?"
The tall old man's face changed drastically, he pointed at Xia Tian and cursed: "You'd better explain clearly, otherwise you won't be able to leave here alive."
"idiot."
Xia Tian really has no interest in this kind of person who has no strength but likes to talk big. Even killing him is a waste of energy.
Ning Ruirui felt that there was something in Xia Tian's previous words, and couldn't help asking: "What did you see?"
"Little long-legged girl, actually you can figure out this kind of thing if you think about it carefully."
Xia Tian said with a smile: "However, you are too stupid, it is normal to not think about it."
"You're stupid, tell me quickly and don't show off."
Ning Ruirui couldn't help but urge: "If there is any solution, tell it too. It will definitely not work if it continues like this."
"Actually, there's nothing much to say about this."
Xia Tian yawned lazily, "The underground spiritual veins are the key to the rise and fall of a land and water.
In fact, as long as nothing unexpected happens, it can still be guaranteed to be evergreen and live forever."
Saying that, Xia Tian suddenly pointed at the tall old man: "But, if someone directly polluted the underground spiritual veins, it would be difficult to say."
Ning Ruirui's mind froze, and she suddenly understood: "What do you mean, they are mining the underground spiritual veins without authorization?"
"This is Zhongnan Mountain."
Shi Chun said somewhat strangely: "Normally, the underground spiritual veins should belong to the Chongyang Palace. Are they qualified to mine them?"
Xia Tian curled his lips: "No one has the qualifications or the ability, so these people are just messing around, and now they are just reaping the consequences."
"You are talking nonsense! You are spouting shit!"
The tall old man was so excited that his face turned red. He pointed at Xia Tian and yelled: "What kind of grudge do we hermits have against you? You want to slander us like this!"
"I have no time to slander you idiots, and you are not qualified for me to slander you."
Xia Tian said nonchalantly: "Since you like to deceive yourself, then just wait and see how long you can hold on."
"ah!"
At this time, the woman in coarse cloth holding the little Taoist nun suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but screamed: "The child's father is still down there. If something happened to the underground spiritual veins, wouldn't he... No, I have to go
save him!"
"Li Xiuqing, what are you talking about!"
The tall old man stepped forward and tried to seal the woman's mouth. "Don't talk nonsense about underground spiritual veins that don't exist!"
This is just a tough talk.
Ning Ruirui didn't know what exactly was in this tall old man's mind. It was simply unreasonable for him to want to hide it at this time.
Soon, many women in the village came to their senses. Their husbands or sons were also down there. Now their life or death was uncertain, and every one of them wanted to go down from the crack in the ground to rescue their relatives.
"Don't even move!"
The tall old man took out a gleaming sword from nowhere, blocked it in front of the crack in the ground, and said to the women: "Whoever dares to come over, I will kill her with one sword! Don't think I'm joking!"
"Village Chief Gao, what on earth are you going to do!"
The coarse cloth woman was very puzzled and shouted: "It was you who made the suggestion back then, saying that as long as we dig a tunnel in the ground to get close to the underground spiritual veins, and use the spiritual energy in the spiritual veins, we can relieve our madness and improve our cultivation.
But more than twenty years have passed. Not only has our madness not healed, but we have become even more dependent on Mo's medicine. We have never blamed you.
Something may have happened to the spiritual veins now, and our relatives are still down there, why do you stop us from saving them!"
"He is obviously lying to you."
Xia Tian smiled and said directly: "Your madness has nothing to do with the amount of spiritual energy. He just deceived you to help him open the passage to the underground."
When Xia Tian said this, some villagers couldn't help but feel suspicious. After all, more than twenty years had passed, and the underground spiritual veins had indeed not made them feel much better.
Only out of their trust in the tall old man, they have always followed his arrangements, and have been secretly digging for underground spiritual veins despite the warnings from Chongyang Palace.
"There must be something wrong with your brains."
The tall old man did not explain, but just yelled and cursed at the villagers: "I am the village chief, and I have been with you for more than thirty years, and you don't believe me, but trust an unrelated stranger!"
"He is not a stranger, but the benefactor who cured our madness. He is a miracle doctor."
The woman in coarse cloth was very sober and was not distracted by the tall old man's words, "You are the village chief and have been with us for more than thirty years, so we don't understand why you want to stop us from saving people!"
"Save someone!"
The tall old man clenched the sword in his hand, and the expression on his face gradually became indifferent, "There will definitely be no problem with the underground spiritual veins. I think you just want to take the opportunity to go down and snatch the spiritual energy.
I have been working hard for more than thirty years, even if I am poisoned by the Mo family, I must not let the plan go wrong in your hands!"
Xia Tian said with a smile: "He seems to have accidentally told the truth."
"plan?"
Many villagers were stunned for a moment. This word has a wide range of meanings, but no matter what it means, it means that it has been premeditated! "Village Chief Gao, what do you mean by plan!"
The woman in coarse cloth suppressed her anger and asked coldly.
Behind her, stood hundreds of villagers who were also full of doubts and anger.
The tall old man knew that he had made a mistake, but the words had already been spoken, and he could not bring them back to the truth even if he wanted to, so he simply put the matter aside and said coldly: "Okay, since you want to hear it, I will tell you mercifully!
"
After hearing this opening statement, many people showed very complicated expressions like the coarse cloth woman. This person actually had a problem.
"More than thirty years ago, the purpose of my coming to Zhongnan Mountain was for the underground spiritual veins! Otherwise, why do you think I gave up tens of millions of net worth, abandoned my wife and children, and came to this wretched place!"
The tall old man had been holding back for many years, and now he could finally speak freely. He was extremely excited at the moment, "What a bullshit hermit, what a bullshit paradise. What I want is immortality, what I want is to become an immortal in one step! Anyone who dares to ruin my good deeds will be punished."
