Chapter 23

Lin Jie responded, then hurried over and opened the door, and looked up at the sky.

The clear blue sky in the secret realm just now has now appeared in twilight. It can be seen that the time and time in the secret realm are different from those outside, and I don’t know how much difference it is.

"Junior Brother Lin, why are you talking quietly when you lock the door?" The visitor was wearing a robe with the same style as Lin Jie, but the piping of the Taoist robe and the belt between his hair were purple. He was born with a white skin. He had a clear eyebrows and eyes, but the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, and there was a hint of arrogance in his expression. When he was talking to Lin Jie, his tone felt condescending, which made people uncomfortable.

"Senior Brother Qin." Lin Jie gave him a simple gift, and did not answer his meaningless question, but turned his eyes to a small white jade bottle in his hand and said, "Is this the elixir?"

"Yeah." The man nodded, but did not want to hand the bottle to Lin Jie at all. Instead, he looked around the room, stepped over the threshold and walked in very consciously, walked straight to Bai Ke who was standing by the round table, pretending to be blind, raised his chin and said, "Are you the new disciple I sent?"

Bai Ke looked at him speechlessly, really unable to understand what the person who was posing for a blind man was thinking.

However, he had seen all kinds of crazy diseases in the past two days, so he didn't mind having another weird thing. He nodded and said "Yes" as an answer.

The man was not satisfied with Bai Ke's reaction, and his chin raised his chin higher: "Tsk, my surname is Qin, and my name is Dan Minghe. I am lucky to be under the real person of the head of my sect. I can still afford to call you a senior brother."

"Senior Brother." Bai Ke shouted lightly after hearing this. The perfunctory meaning sounded impossible to be more obvious.

"..." Qin He glared at him for a long time, snorted coldly: "I have no cultivation at all, but my temper is quite strong! How can I introduce myself to my senior brother? I don't even have a name for me? Is your spiritual pill still in my hands, so if you don't want it, just say it, what's your attitude?"

Bai Ke nodded: "Oh."

Qin He: "..." Damn!

Seeing that this person seemed to be really angry, Bai Ke then concisely reported his name: "Bai Ke."

"You don't dare to be so ignorant of the sky and earth." Qin He found the steps and jumped down immediately. He clamped the small jade bottle with two fingers, looked Bai Ke up and down, then stared at Bai Ke's closed eyes and said, "It seems that he is really blind. Why are you always closing your eyes? Are your eyes deformed like many blind people?"

"Senior Brother!" Lin Jie, who was standing beside him, could not listen and interrupted.

He was about to continue saying something, but when Bai Ke seemed to care nothing, he said lightly: "Yes, it's deformed and can't open it anymore."

Qin He was blocked by him several times. He wanted to say something mean to stimulate him, but the effect he received was like this. It was like a punch hitting cotton. Not only did he not exhale, but he was even more depressed.

He is actually about the same age as Bai Ke and the others. He is arrogant but not mature. He is so angry that his ears turn red after being furious after Bai Ke's words. He held it in a long time before swallowing the fire. He sneered again and shook the jade bottle in his hand, saying, "I see, your qualifications and bones are not very prominent. It's just that the birthday is just right for the master's request. Don't think that you can be arrogant and arrogant because of his extra elixir every day! The high-quality disciples of Hengtian Sect are all over the ground, so you can think clearly."

Bai Ke looked at him helplessly and thought to himself: It turned out that it was because the leader sent him a spiritual pill every day, which made his personal disciples come to compete for favor.

He seemed to see a puppy who was "ao" snatching milk to drink.

However, if this senior brother who is not very smart knows what this spiritual pill is for, and I wonder if he will still compete for a favor, he will probably run away crying immediately.

Lin Jie also saw what he meant. He has been in the sect for so many years and has been bullied and ridiculed by those group of brothers openly and secretly. At this time, he saw this senior brother who had always been on his head so aggrieved, and he suddenly felt a little funny and a little satisfied. However, his current cultivation level is indeed not a little worse than theirs, and there is no need to deliberately provoke them. Then he eased the atmosphere and said, "Senior Brother Qin, this spiritual pill is actually what the head sect gave Xiao Baizhi's eyes, and it is not something that encourages cultivation. Don't take it too seriously."

"Just!" Qin He's face turned a little red, and he said angrily like a rooster with hair blown out: "When will I, Qin He, start to take my new disciples to heart?! What does this little spiritual pill have to do with me? Even if I encourage my cultivation, I don't care. No matter how fast my cultivation grows, it will not keep up with us practicing day and night." After he said that, he looked at the expressions of Bai Ke and Lin Jie, as if he felt that his words were not powerful enough, so he added: "Besides, it's not just that he has a spiritual pill, and the head has never treated his personal disciples badly. We will also receive a pill every month, which will really encourage our cultivation."

As he said, he seemed to be comforted by what he said, and was in a better mood. So he sneered, threw the jade bottle in his hand on the table with disdain, then shook his sleeves, walked out with his hands behind his back like a male peacock, took two steps, and turned back to Bai Ke as if he had remembered something, saying, "By the way, I'll pack it up tonight, I'll take you to Sanqing Pool. As for Junior Brother Lin-"

"He can't see, I'll send him over." Lin Jie said immediately. He really didn't think Qin He was a good person. Although he wouldn't do anything to hurt others or kill people, he would definitely be able to make some minor troubles with Bai Ke.

"Why can anyone enter Sanqing Pool easily?" Qin He glanced at him, his tone full of mockery.

"I won't go in, just wait for him outside."

"It's up to you, anyway, there is a ban there, and you can't get in even if you want to." Qin He didn't want to talk nonsense to him. Before leaving the yard, he looked at the entire yard with disgust.

Seeing him leaving the yard, Lin Jie closed the door again, then shrugged at Bai Ke, and said helplessly: "There are too many snake sperm diseases like Hengtianmen."

Bai Ke glanced at him, and for the first time he didn't complain about him in his heart, but asked, "Isn't it a hard work?"

"Ah?" Lin Jie was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was asking, and said, "It's okay, my obsession with practicing Taoism is not as deep as theirs. Although sometimes he would think about what kind of reaction they would have if he surpassed them and became a powerful person. But it was just thinking about it. Compared to this, I want to find my sister as soon as possible."

"Yes." Bai Ke nodded.

"But this is the first time I heard that the disciples under the head of the sect will receive spiritual pills every month!" Lin Jie looked gossipy: "No wonder those senior brothers have improved their cultivation so quickly this year, and it is not normal at all! Their attacks at the last sect meeting, which scared the other major sects silly. At that time, I heard that there was something tricky about it, but I didn't expect that there was really something."

Bai Ke twitched the corner of his mouth: Qin He just revealed this kind of thing so casually, he was simply careless.

He no longer cared about Lin Jie's nonsense, but picked up the small jade bottle on the table, pulled out the stopper at the bottle, and poured a dark red pill contained in it into his palm.

Bai Ke couldn't see the strange color, and only felt that the light emitted by the pill was flickering and dark, which made people feel uncomfortable.

After seeing the pill, Lin Jie stopped muttering about something missing. He stretched out a finger and carefully poked the pill, twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "This color is so scary. Why does it look like it's blood-stained, and you don't have appetite."

"This is used to nourish the seven-star pill in my body, of course it's evil." Bai Ke only felt a faint orchid fragrance mixed with some strange smell and drilled into his nose along his breath. After smelling it for a long time, he felt that the smell was a bit fishy.

He felt that the more he studied, the less he wanted to eat this thing, so he simply didn't look at it and threw it into his mouth and swallowed it raw.

Lin Jie was frightened by his heroism, blinked, and was stunned for a long time before saying, "Damn you just swallowed it?"

"What about that?" Bai Ke pulled the chair and sat down, waiting for the pill to take effect.

"You swallowed it without looking at what ingredients?"

“Do I have a choice?”

Lin Jie choked: "It seems to be right..."

So he stared at Bai Ke with his dog eyes widened, for fear of missing a slight change in his expression.

In comparison, the person involved who had been closed all the time seemed much calmer. Lin Jie couldn't help but sigh in his heart, saying nothing else, just for Bai Ke's calmness and demeanor, which was indeed a suitable material for practicing Taoism.

In fact, what Lin Jie didn't know was that Bai Ke was also worried, otherwise he wouldn't have sat here so upright for a long time without moving.

The two sat face to face for half an hour, until Lin Jie tragically discovered that because he was too tight, his feet and hands that were on his knees seemed to be a little numb.

"Don't feel anything yet?" Lin Jie couldn't help asking.

Bai Ke shook his head and said, "No."

He paused for a moment and said, "Maybe this pill just looks a little evil, and there is no obvious manifestation after swallowing it?"

Listening to the tone of the head of Hengtian Sect, they had tried medicine with others before. If the reaction of swallowing the elixir was too intense, it would inevitably be that no one who knew it would be suspicious. Thinking of this, Bai Ke really felt that this elixir was no big deal.

Lin Jie thought it made sense, so he stood up while holding the table and said, "It's getting dark. Since there is no special reaction, let's go. I'll take you to have something to eat."

"Even if you need to eat when practicing Taoism?" Bai Ke also stood up after hearing his words.

"Of course, it's only after the fasting period - oh, damn it!" Lin Jie's legs were a little numb. Before he could stand firm, he saw Bai Ke, who was also sitting numb, not standing firmly, and his chin hit Lin Jie's forehead, who was half-bearing.

"Um--" Bai Ke groaned, and the tip of his tongue hurt, and immediately felt a bloody smell spreading from the tip of his tongue.

"Have you bitten your tongue?" Lin Jie asked, rubbing his forehead.

Bai Ke opened his mouth and was about to answer, but he felt a sudden sharp sting of his forehead, as if someone had stabbed directly into his forehead with a pointed awl. At the same time, his stomach suddenly became turbulent, and a burning sensation of pain burned from the bottom to the top, causing Bai Ke to thrust his heart.

He frowned tightly and fell on the chair, his left hand tightly clamped his chest, almost spasm, and his force was so strong that there was no blood on his joints.

In the pain that was intertwined up and down, he felt that the bloody smell on the tip of his tongue became stronger and stronger, and it seemed that a steady stream of fresh blood was flowing out of the small wound on the tip of his tongue.
