Chapter 90

Knowing that the group of practitioners who came from all over came for Shui Liyin, Sheng Yunshen wisely stopped talking.

It's just that although he didn't talk to him, the group of people regarded him as coming for Shui Liyin, and felt that they belonged to the same camp.

Sheng Yunshen was so embarrassed that he couldn't say anything.

Fortunately, the queue time was not long, and it was their turn soon.

Because Taize City's inspection of practitioners who enter the city is relatively strict, Yi Xuan and the four did not conceal their identities, and directly revealed their identities to the guards who inspected them.

The practitioners in Taize City were overjoyed and hurriedly reported to the captain of the guards patrolling behind.

The captain of the guard came over quickly and said happily: "It turns out to be a fellow Daoist of the Scarlet Firmament Sect. Our city master has been waiting for you for a long time. Fellow Daoist please come in."

Having said that, he ordered the others to continue, and led the four of them through the crowd into the city.

The cultivators who just said that they were in full swing watched them leave without looking back, and they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

It turned out that they were not here because of the water fairy, but because of the madness of the practitioners in Taize City. Just now, they kindly dragged them and kept talking, which was embarrassing.

***

After entering Taize City, Yi Xuan and the four made a special observation and found that the once prosperous Cultivation City, now there are few people on the street, the practitioners in the past are also in a hurry, their expressions are tense, the business on both sides of the street is sluggish, standing at the door The clerk who greeted the customer sighed.

This kind of incident in Taize City not only damaged its reputation, but the practitioners in the city moved out one after another, and practitioners outside did not dare to come in. No practitioners came. As a result, the business in Taize City was greatly affected and the income dropped sharply. .

Although Shui Liyin's disappearance has attracted a group of cultivators who came to find her, these cultivators are dedicated to finding beautiful women, and they are not the guests that Taize City expects at all, which is really unhappy.

It was because the disciples of the Scarlet Heaven Sect who could help them came, the guards in Taize City would be so happy.

The guards who guarded the gate took them directly to the City Lord's Mansion.

The city owner of Taize City is a practitioner of Yuanzong Realm.

In the Shengwu Continent, the practitioners of Yuanzong City are called real people, who can guard one side and are admired by others. Cultivators like the city lord of Taize City serve as city lords in most cultivating cities in Shengwu Continent.

The city owner's surname is Xu. He is a middle-aged man with a face in his forties. He has a beard under his jaw and looks very dignified.

After receiving the news of the arrival of the disciples of the Scarlet Heaven Sect, City Lord Xu waited early to greet him at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

Seeing the arrival of the disciples of the Scarlet Firmament Sect, and the fact that the disciples were also direct disciples of the sect master's lineage, City Master Xu was overjoyed. Although his cultivation level was higher than Yi Xuan's, he didn't dare to take the senior's style.

Although cultivators generally regard their status as Xiuwei, there are times when the identities of the direct disciples of the top sects are more valuable, and they dare not provoke them. Even if their cultivation is not high, they are still treated with courtesy when they walk outside.

"Young Master Yi, Young Master Sheng, Young Master Ning, Miss Min, I have long admired the name."

It's not that he has admired the name for a long time, especially Ning Yuzhou, City Lord Xu couldn't help but take a second look.

This is a genius alchemist who has been in the limelight recently. heard that all the alche he cultivates are top-grade alche, and his savvy is so strong that few people can match it.

He is even proficient in formation techniques and weapon refining. He is simply an all-rounder, and he does not complain that he will be accepted as an exception by the Akasaka Sect.

Yi Xuan is someone who doesn't like to be long-winded, so he went straight to the topic, "City Master Xu, can you take us to see those crazy cultivators first?"

"It's natural." City Lord Xu said quickly, "When they were mad, they just attacked people blindly. As a last resort, they had to be locked in the dungeon in the mansion, separated by a ban, so as not to hurt others or hurt each other."

City Lord Xu personally took them to the dungeon.

As they walked, City Master Xu told them about the cultivators going crazy.

In fact, half a year ago, some practitioners went crazy, but because it happened too suddenly, it didn't attract attention.

The first cultivator to go crazy was a clerk of a pill shop in the city, and the clerk was a native of Taize City.

Half a year ago, the clerk suddenly attacked the customers who came to Dan Shop to buy spiritual pills, and also attacked other clerks in the shop who were trying to stop him. Later, he was arrested by the patrolling guards in Taize City who came over and locked in the dungeon.

This happened very suddenly. In addition, the clerk had no relatives in Taize City. He once had a father who died when he went out to practice when he was a child, and he was the only one left in the fox family. Therefore, when the clerk went crazy and was locked up, no one cared about him. He discussed it in Taize City as a talk for a while, and soon everyone forgot about it.

Who would have known that a few months later, cultivators went mad one after another, especially this month, the number of mad cultivators in the city was increasing, so much that even the city owner was alarmed, and finally paid attention to this matter.

City Lord Xu found that the number of mad cultivators in the city could no longer be controlled. The speed of the spread was too fast, as if it would be contagious. He had also asked the Earth-level alchemist to check on those mad cultivators, but he could not find out the reason for their madness, and there was no way to treat them.

As a last resort, could only ask the Scarlet Firmament Sect for help. In fact, hope that the Scarlet Firmament Sect will send a heaven-level alchemist over.

A heaven-level alchemist has a distinguished status, is well-informed, and is more capable than an earth-level alchemist, so he should be able to see something.

As for a king-level alchemist, that's something you don't even have to think about.

The king-level alchemist is the top alchemist in the Shengwu Continent. There are only two king-level alchemists in the Shengwu Continent, one is in the Qingyun Sect and the other is in the alchemy alliance.

Taize City is an affiliated city of the Scarlet Sky Sect. Naturally, it is impossible to ask the Qingyun Sect for help. The request can only ask the Scarlet Sky Sect to come forward. Otherwise, why would the Qingyun Sect pay attention to the request of a cultivation city and ask their king-level alchemist to come forward? The distance from the alchemy alliance to Taize City is too far. If you go there to invite it, it will take a lot of time to go back and forth, and you may not be able to invite a moving king-level alchemist.

In this way, they can only hope that the people sent by the Akasaka Sect can help.

As for the four Yi Xuan sent by the Akasaka Sect, City Master Xu was very happy, and already put his hope on Ning Yuzhou.

As for Ning Yuzhou now, he is only a Xuan-level alchemist, not even an earth-level alchemist? That's not a problem at all, after all, he's a genius.

I have to say that after Ning Yuzhou's reputation spread throughout the Central Continent, rumors gradually strengthened his ability, and the more and more rumors it spread, it became more and more mysterious, causing some ignorant practitioners to blindly believe him.

The city owner of Taize City is obviously a blind believer.

This made Sheng Yunshen very kind and felt that City Lord Xu was really a discerning person.

I also think he has vision, and Wen Qiao.

Yi Xuan glanced at Sheng Yunshen and Wen Qiao, and silently looked away, unable to bear to look directly.

When they came to the dungeon, City Lord Xu took them to the depths of the dungeon.

The dungeon can be regarded as the strongest defense of the city lord's mansion. It is safer to lock the mad cultivator here, without worrying about harming the innocent.

When the guards guarding the dungeon saw that the city lord brought someone over, he hurried forward to salute.

"Open the ban, and I will bring a few fellow Taoists from the Scarlet Heaven Sect to have a look." City Lord Xu instructed.

The guard quickly opened the restriction and let the group in.

As soon as he got close, he heard an inhuman roar, as well as various sounds hitting the walls and iron fences.

I saw those cultivators locked in the dungeon with unkempt faces and filth all over, frantically attacking the dungeon where they were locked. Fortunately, there were restrictions on the iron fence of the dungeon, otherwise this attack method would be broken by them sooner or later.

Seeing someone coming over, the practitioners in the prison became more and more excited, and the iron fence rattled, as if it would not hurt. Their crazy actions made the scalp of the people outside the iron fence go numb. The chill kept surging into my heart.

Yi Xuan's face was expressionless.

Ning Yuzhou was calm and calm, looking at the crazy people in the prison.

Wen Qiao and Sheng Yunshen were one curious and the other slightly surprised, but they were both very calm.

City Lord Xu looked at it secretly, and when he saw this, he secretly nodded his head. The disciples of the main peak of the Scarlet Heaven Sect were really excellent, unlike other cultivators. The first time they saw this situation, they would always be startled.

Amid the noise, Ning Yuzhou said, "City Lord Xu, have they always been like this?"

City Lord Xu hurriedly said: "Yes, they are no longer conscious, no matter what others say, they can't hear, they just go crazy. When they are crazy and tired, they will fall asleep, but when they wake up, they will continue to go crazy, Attack everything that can be attacked, without stopping for a moment."

Ning Yuzhou hummed and walked down the aisle.

On both sides of the passage are the cells of the mad cultivators. Wherever they passed, the cultivators rushed over like crazy, slammed into the iron fence, bared their teeth and danced their claws at them, and let out a howl.

The light in the dungeon was miserable, which made the group of mad cultivators and all kinds of roars especially terrifying.

Ning Yuzhou had a calm expression and walked by calmly, observing the reactions of the practitioners in the prison as he walked.

City Lord Xu and Yi Xuan followed behind them without disturbing him.

From the beginning to the end, there are nearly a thousand mad cultivators here. Although this number is not many, it is not too small. Nearly a thousand cultivators went mad together, but they could not find the reason. Worried and afraid? For fear of being the next crazy person.

After the inspection, Ning Yuzhou said to City Lord Xu: "City Lord Xu, please make an empty room and bring a crazy person over there. I will check it myself."

Of course that's fine.

City Lord Xu immediately asked someone to make arrangements, and asked expectantly, "Young Master Ning, what do you see? Is there a way to solve it?"

Ning Yuzhou said warmly: "We need to check further to know the result. City Lord Xu doesn't have to worry too much. These mad cultivators will not be contagious if they come into contact with other people."

City Lord Xu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good! Ever since more and more cultivators went mad, people in the city have been panicking, thinking they were infected..." Suddenly, he reacted and asked with great joy, "Ning How does the son know that it is not contagious?"

Ning Yuzhou smiled and said nothing.

This appearance seems a bit inscrutable. In the eyes of normal people, it is the arrogance of the alchemist, who disdains to explain.

City Lord Xu felt a sudden shock in his heart and did not dare to ask again, for fear of offending him.

Alchemy masters have a high status in Shengwu Continent and are highly respected by the world, which has also cultivated the arrogant and lofty character of the alchemists. Most of the capable alchemists cannot tolerate any offense by practitioners.

Of course, the problems of alchemists are also what practitioners are used to.

City Lord Xu's action is very strong, and he quickly arranged to bring a crazy person over in person.

The mad cultivator was bound by a rope, twisting his body, and he couldn't break free. He could only let out a roar like a trapped beast. Under the loose hair, his face was distorted, and his eyes were faintly glowing scarlet, like a beast.

City Lord Xu said, "Young Master Ning, do you need to untie him?"

"No." Ning Yuzhou said, "Tie him to a chair."

City Lord Xu personally tied the mad cultivator to a chair, worried that he would violently injure the weak alchemist, so he wanted to stay here.

"City Lord Xu, if you have something to do, go to work. There is my senior brother here, so you don't need to watch it all the time." Ning Yuzhou said.

City Lord Xu is most concerned about the madness of the practitioners in the city. He opened his mouth and wanted to stay, but thought that maybe Ning Yuzhou didn't want outsiders to see his treatment, so he left with interest.

It can only be said that City Lord Xu thought too much.

Ning Yuzhou just didn't want an outsider to stay here and stare at him. It would be nice if they had a few brothers and sisters.

Sheng Yunshen closed the door, jumped over to look at the person tied to the chair, and asked, "Junior Brother Ning, what are you going to do with him?"

Ning Yuzhou glanced at him, "Of course he was cured."

"Hey, can it really be cured?" Sheng Yun asked in surprise.

Even Wen Qiao and Yi Xuan couldn't help staring at him.

"It depends on their situation. If the period of madness is short, it can be cured naturally. If it is too long..."

Although the words were not finished, everyone present understood that it seemed that Ning Yuzhou could indeed cure him.

Sheng Yunshen became confident again, "That's right, who is Junior Brother Ning? Is there anything that Junior Brother Ning can't do? Little Junior Sister, let's sit here and don't disturb Junior Brother Ning."

Seeing that the matter can be resolved, he relaxes again, and his happy appearance makes people feel helpless and want to laugh.

Sheng Yun pulled Wen Qiao deeply, sat by the window, took out all kinds of snacks and spirit wine from the storage bag, and watched Ning Yuzhou treat the crazy cultivator while eating and drinking, and even greeted Wen Tutu with him.

Yi Xuan glanced at the two of them, and shook his head secretly. The good senior brother was naturally taking care of them.

***

The sky was completely dark, and the four brothers and sisters were nestled in the room, and there was no movement.

At first, there were a few roars, and gradually the sound disappeared. City Lord Xu kept staring at this side. After the sound disappeared, he was scratching his heart and wanted to know what happened.

They won't kill that mad cultivator, right?

As soon as this idea came out, City Lord Xu himself was startled. Although these cultivators went mad, it was still a life. Unless it was a last resort, they naturally couldn't kill them. The Scarlet Heaven Sect is the leader of the righteous path, so shouldn't they do such a thing?

In the end, City Lord Xu couldn't help knocking on the door.

He made a very real excuse, "Young Master Yi, Young Master Ning, Young Master Sheng, Miss Min, it's late at night, do you want to rest first?"

Yi Xuan opened the door and said, "No, we're all staying here tonight."

City Lord Xu took the opportunity to look inside the door, and found that the person tied to the chair had calmed down, sitting there in a daze, although still in a state of confusion, at least it was better than before.

City Lord Xu was taken aback and hurriedly said, "Young Master Yi, what's wrong with him?"

Yi Xuan turned sideways and let him in.

After City Lord Xu came in, his eyes swept away, and he found that Ning Yuzhou was sitting at the table, writing something. On the other side sat two people and a demon rabbit. There was a pile of melon seeds and soul fruit on the table to eat. The two and one rabbit were eating deliciously there, and this pair of eating and drinking looks like, why is it so discordant?

City Lord Xu: "..."

"Junior Brother Ning fed him a spiritual pill to calm him down." Yi Xuan explained.

City Lord Xu immediately forgot about the two people who were incompatible and asked happily, "What kind of elixir? Our alchemist tried to feed them some elixir before, but it didn't work."

"Shaoyang Pill." Ning Yuzhou said quietly.

City Lord Xu: "...What kind of elixir is this?"

Ning Yuzhou glanced at him and said, "It's a kind of positive pill, and it's a derivative pill of Shaoyang Po'erdan."

City Lord Xu was even more at a loss.

He is a cultivator of Yuanzong Realm. He has cultivated to this realm, and he knows a lot of different types of elixir, but he has never heard of these two kinds of elixir.

If so, it makes sense. After all, those top sects don't have anything to press the bottom of the box.
