Before dawn, Xiang Jingyi returned to the small courtyard, and the two of them hurried back to the Emperor Wa's Palace. After Ana'er got dressed, he called his entourage and went directly to Yin Sa's private residence.
Northern Xinjiang is not like the Central Plains, where every emperor has his own palace. Although there is a temple for Emperor Wa built by women, they do not live in it all the time.
Yin Sa lives in a very special place, in the mountains and forests twenty miles south of the ancient city. Anal has only heard of it, and this is the first time he has come back.
She was sitting in a sedan carriage, and as the mountain road bumped, the silver jewelry on her body jingled. The accompanying maid held an insect repellent incense burner, fearing that poisonous things would fly out and hurt someone. Xiang Jingyi held a long sword to open the way ahead.
Cut off all the tangled vines.
After passing through the forest of rocks, we finally reached the main road that people were walking on. In the distance, we could see a huge tree, as big as dozens of people hugging each other.
The Miao Mountains have large differences and there are no plains for people to live in groups. They rely on mountains and rivers to eat and use local materials. In order to avoid being harmed by poisonous beasts in the jungle, the Miao people in the past either lived in caves or in this kind of
In houses built according to trees. Only people of noble status will live in huge tree trunks. It is rare for ordinary people to find a good habitat, and some people build wooden houses directly on the tree crown. As time goes by, the miasma in the mountains and forests worsens.
, the area available for people gradually became less and less. Later, Ren Nuzhu led everyone to move to the valley, and only then did the ancient city of Para, which has only one way out, be built.
Ana'er didn't know Yin Sa before, but only knew that the Five Poison Sect was an extremely secretive organization in northern Xinjiang. After returning from defeat in the Central Plains, they used the poisons in the mountains and forests to practice Gu, and even turned themselves into monsters, pursuing a kind of
The so-called realm of immortality that others cannot understand. There are countless people in the Central Plains who worship immortals, but those Taoist priests and semi-immortals all pursue spiritual things. They are not as scary as those in Northern Xinjiang, and they can even kill themselves. Time flies by for decades,
The number of people dying increased, and there was an endless stream of people falling into it. Gradually, the Five Poisons Sect was ridiculed by outsiders and called the Life Sect.
Although Yin Sa is a member of the cult, she pursues power and desire, and is an extremely ambitious person. Unfortunately, her appearance was ruined by the poison, making it hard to show off to others.
The sedan chair stopped under the giant tree, and Xiang Jingyi accompanied Anal into the tree house. From a distance, he saw an attendant kneeling on the ground reporting something.
The woman sitting in the upper seat is about twenty-five years old, and her appearance is extremely beautiful. Even though she is wrapped in a loose robe, her enchanting figure can be seen when she is sitting.
Asking Xiang Jingyi to wait aside, she held up her long skirt and followed suit, walking slowly over.
As if she heard the rumors being discussed, Anal deliberately slowed down her pace. It wasn't until Yin Sa found out that she quickened her pace and passed by, lowering her eyebrows and shouting, "Nvzhu."
"Go down." The female voice said quietly after dismissing the attendants who reported the matter, "After that night, there were rumors in the ancient city that the priests were killing people and making poison with terrible methods. In this morning alone, everyone
It’s so dangerous that no one dares to come out. What do you think about this matter?”
While she was talking, some attendants automatically moved up the chairs. Anael sat down and said slowly: "The grass needs wind to blow. Since someone said it, it must be somewhat true. It's just adults.
As a female architect, I can’t believe it completely, but I can’t disbelieve it either.”
Saying this is like doing Tai Chi, there is no difference from not saying it.
Yin Sa said: "Jiao Yinchang is the priest I personally promoted. Regardless of whether this is true or not, I can't escape the relationship in the hearts of the people."
"With all due respect, Jiao Yin Chang is not a person we can keep!" Ana'er was determined to kill Jiao Yin Chang and would not miss such a good opportunity. "Back then, when there was chaos in Northern Xinjiang, he was the guilty one. If he hadn't watched
In your face, I would never admit it at first! I thought he would perform his duties well when he stayed in the temple, but he always did things that made people lose confidence! How can such a villain deserve it?
The position of priest! Besides, you have just taken up the position, so you should stabilize the people's hearts and not let him go lightly."
The woman's thin lips parted slightly, her expression numb, "After all, he has the grace to save your life."
Ana'er said bitterly: "You have used your position as a priest to repay this kindness, but he didn't cherish it himself. No wonder we!"
Anal didn't know about this, so he could say so firmly. But Yinsa knew it well. She relied on the saint to sit on the female building position, and Jiao Yinchang played a big role in the middle. Originally, they were incompatible with each other.
Guan Guan, she raked it all over at this time, and was afraid that Jiao Yinchang would shake everything out. But if she didn't deal with him, her position in the hearts of the people would be even more shaken.
"Then what do you think should be done?"
Ana'er said: "Remove his position as a priest and imprison him in a dungeon. We will not convict him until we find out what happened." No one knows the matter of murder and making poison better than her. As long as Jiao Yin Chang is caught, he will definitely die.
Both of them were thinking in their own minds. Anal was thinking about how to kill Jiao Yinchang, but Yinsa was struggling with what to do to his benefit.
Jiao Yinchang holds the handle of Yin Sa, and she dare not touch him, but as long as this person lives in the world, he will be a disaster for her. If he is removed, then Northern Xinjiang will be hers alone, which is not a good strategy.
"Here comes someone."
She suddenly made a sound, which woke Anal back up. The guard general knelt on the ground with one leg and clasped his fists, waiting for orders.
The superior woman still maintained her original actions and never moved an inch, "Send my order to remove the priest from his post and investigate, and put him in a dungeon."
"I accept your orders." The guard stood up and went out.
Ana'er's business was done, and she no longer planned to stay for a long time. She was suspicious, so she stood up, bent over, and said smoothly: "I came here this time to ask you something. Do you know the life and death Gu?"
The woman in the seat said expressionlessly: "The life and death poison, life is death, death is life! If both poisons work together, the only one left alive will be alive."
I just said it casually at first, but I didn't expect that she actually knew it. But then I thought about it, Yin Sa is a member of the Immortal Cult, and she has never heard of any strange Gu. Maybe she really has a solution. Thinking about it like this, she suddenly felt happy, "Then you can
Is there a way to save these two people?"
The woman in the upper position was still sitting upright, her eyes were dead and calm, "Those who are affected by the life and death gu will definitely die, there is no other way."
"It's impossible, how could you not even be able to do anything about it..." If you believe too much, you will only feel a shock. Even Yin Sa can't do anything about it, so how can you still save them...
"There is no way."
Anael raised his head sharply, "Really?"
Yin Sa said: "Who are you trying to save?"
This question was just to see if it was worth saving her. Anal saw through her thoughts, stepped closer, and whispered: "My personal guard once accidentally offended the priest and was poisoned by him.
Yesterday, I heard that an outsider had a dispute with the priest and was poisoned by him."
Yin Sa said: "So the person you want me to save is your personal guard?"
"No." Ana'er glanced at the nearby maid, walked to her and said in a voice that the two of them could hear: "I heard that this outsider has a great identity and is the city lord of a mysterious sect in the Central Plains."
Yin Sa paused, "What sect?"
She leaned a little closer and slowly said three words, "Tianmu Peak."
After finishing speaking, Ana'er lowered his head and quickly retreated, stroking his skirt and kneeling on the ground, "I hope Nuzhu can save my personal guard's life."
"Get up."
Ana'er was just pretending and didn't really want to beg her all the time. Tianmu Peak is just a legend in the Central Plains, but there was a female architect in northern Xinjiang who had seen it with her own eyes. The power of Tianmu Peak is so powerful that Yin Sa would never let it go.
Pass the opportunity to win over him.
She didn't think of saying this at first. Fortunately, Xiang Jingyi had mentioned it to her before. This back and forth, casual and casual, was profitable for both of them.
Yin Sa paused for a long time before speaking: "How long have you been poisoning?"
Ana'er said: "It is said that it was midnight last night."
"With two poisons, one person will die within twelve hours. Bring him to see me before midnight tonight."
"Yes." Ana'er was happy in his heart, but he still pretended to be cold on his face, "Then I will retreat first."
"Go ahead."
Anael turned around and walked out slowly, his actions not suspicious at all. It wasn't until he got on the sedan chair that he realized that his hands were shaking with excitement.
"Houjia, Houjia!"
Xiang Jingyi, who was walking in front, heard the voice and immediately walked to the sedan chair, "Your Highness?"
Anael sat upright, closed his eyes, and stretched out one hand outside the curtain.
Xiang Jingyi was surprised. It took him a long time to understand what she meant, and he quickly held her shaking hand. He said worriedly: "Your Highness, what happened?"
"It's okay." She still closed her eyes, held his hand firmly, and ordered: "Let's go to the courtyard first and talk about it when we get back."
It was difficult to tell with so many people. Although he was curious, he still nodded and said, "Yes."

Besides, on Jiao Yinchang's side, an uninvited guest unexpectedly came to the temple.
Looking at Fang Baimei who was supposed to be avoiding tracking in Feihua Valley, Jiao Yinchang sneered: "What a rare visitor."
Fang Baimei herself didn't want to come to Northern Xinjiang to look for him. It's just that Yanya Prison was poisoned by him last time. The pain was so unbearable for a month that she had to come to him to get the other half of the antidote. Besides, he still had Butterfly in his hand.
She couldn't just give up all the blood poison to him.
Fang Baimei has two advantages. One is her persistence in the Gu Poison Sect, and the other is her extremely thick skin. "I'm here to help you. Why, you don't welcome me?"
"What do you think?"
"Of course you want to welcome me." Fang Baimei strode to his seat and sat down, smiling charmingly, "I heard about your killing people and practicing Gu when we entered the city. You can't possibly not know this!
Northern Xinjiang is not like the Eastern Continent, there are not so many idle people waiting for you to catch. As a priest, you kill people and make it known to everyone, you will surely be in trouble soon!"
Jiao Yinchang's face was hidden in the darkness, and his expression could not be seen clearly. Although he hated Fang Baimei's aloofness and arrogance, what she said was right. This kind of thing was exposed to the sun, and Yin Sa wanted to protect herself.
Will definitely take action.
"You don't have to worry about me, but you..." He snorted, "Isn't it that you have traveled thousands of miles to Northern Xinjiang just to beg me for the antidote? If you want to survive, I advise you to speak carefully."
The purpose of her coming was clear to each other. Since she was honest, there was no need to put on a smile and said, "I'm here to get the antidote, but I'm also here for the butterfly blood Gu. Now that things are going bad, you can't handle it alone."
.”
The sound of neat footsteps could be heard from far outside the house. They must be the guards sent by Yin Sa to capture him.
"I can give you the antidote." Jiao Yinchang stood there and looked at her, "The only condition is that you help me get the Huaying Stone!"
Fang Baimei said in surprise: "You mean Yan Jue is also in the ancient city!"
Jiao Yinchang acquiesced, "Do you agree or not?"
She had always wanted to kill Yanjue, but she didn't expect to meet him again. It was better to come early than to come by chance. Fang Baimei nodded decisively, "Why not!"
Jiao Yinchang threw her a pill, turned around and walked out, "The butterfly blood Gu is in the Thousand Bat Cave. Go and move it quickly."
