Mortal Seeking Immortal

The housekeeper started to walk out of the room, preparing to call someone to take the monk named Ning out. Ye Zhou, who was standing aside, said, "Wait a minute."

The monk surnamed Ning looked at Ye Zhou excitedly, as if looking at a life-saving straw.

The eyes of all the monks in the room fell on Ye Zhou. The monks in Donghai City all knew that the head of the Xu family was narrow-minded and always had to take revenge. The monk named Ning almost killed him, so he would never let Ning go. Monk, if Ye Zhou wants to meddle in this business, he will definitely make the head of the Xu family dissatisfied.

Sure enough, the head of the Xu family looked at Ye Zhou with a hint of dissatisfaction, but because Ye Zhou had just saved his life, the head of the Xu family did not have an attack on the spot, but said to Ye Zhou in a cold tone: "Dare you ask?" "What's the matter with Fellow Daoist Ye? If you want to plead for this person, I advise Fellow Daoist Ye not to speak, so as not to hurt the harmony between you and me."

Ye Zhou shook his head and said: "Senior has misunderstood. I am not trying to plead for this person. I am just curious about the elixir he dedicated to senior and want to borrow his elixir for a look."

When the monk surnamed Ning heard this, the look of expectation in his eyes disappeared.

Only then did the head of the Xu family understand that Ye Zhou was not interceding for the monk surnamed Ning. The look on his face suddenly softened and he said, "Isn't it easy for Fellow Daoist Ye to see the elixir? There are many elixirs in my house. Which one do you want to see, Fellow Daoist Ye?" Just tell me about the elixir and I will send someone to get it for you immediately."

Ye Zhou shook his head and said, "I just want to see the elixir on him."

The head of the Xu family looked at Ye Zhou with a look of doubt in his eyes. He didn't know why Ye Zhou insisted on looking at the elixir on the monk named Ning.

Ye Zhou then slowly opened his mouth and explained: "I just want to see what kind of elixir caused your life to be in danger, senior."

"Senior has been ill for some time. I think there will be many alchemists coming to diagnose your illness every day. Senior should take some pills every day, but why is it okay after taking other pills? , but I had such a big reaction after taking the elixir presented by fellow Taoist Ning."

As soon as Ye Zhou finished speaking, all the monks present were awakened by Ye Zhou's words and began to think. When the head of the Xu family heard this, he frowned slightly and seemed to be thinking about the reason.

After a while, the head of the Xu family couldn't think about it, so he said casually: "Maybe the pill he offered is poisonous."

Ye Zhou shook his head and said: "By removing the medicinal properties from your body just now, I did not detect that the pill that your senior took was poisonous."

Hearing this, the head of the Xu family became even more puzzled, and asked Ye Zhou: "Since the elixir is non-toxic, why did I almost die after taking the elixir?"

Ye Zhou said: "So this junior guesses that there is something in the elixir that is incompatible with your illness, senior. That's why you have such a big reaction. If you want to cure your illness, I guess you have to start from scratch." Get this elixir.”

The head of the Xu family's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Ye Zhou turned around and looked at the monk named Ning in the corner and asked, "Do you know the recipe for this elixir?"

Researching elixir recipes is much simpler than researching elixirs.

The monk surnamed Ning shook his head and said: "This elixir was refined by my master himself. The elixir recipe is a secret that is not passed down by my master. I don't have the elixir recipe with me."

Hearing this, the head of the Xu family seemed to have seen hope, and immediately said: "Who is your master? Where does he live? I will send someone to fetch him immediately."

The monk surnamed Ning said: "My master loves alchemy and his whereabouts are unpredictable. He often goes out to look for alchemy materials. The last time I saw him was half a year ago, and I don't know where he is now."

Ye Zhou said: "It seems that we can only start with pills."

The head of the Xu family immediately ordered the housekeeper to get the elixir from the monk named Ning. The monks also looked at the monk named Ning eagerly, and they all sighed in their hearts as to why they didn't think of this just now.

The housekeeper took out the jade box from the arms of the monk surnamed Ning, walked quickly to the bed of the head of the Xu family, and handed the jade box to the head of the Xu family. The head of the Xu family took the jade box and opened it eagerly, only to see what was inside. A black elixir the size of a thumb was placed quietly, and a scent of elixir was spreading from the elixir.

The head of the Xu family took the elixir and looked at it for a moment. He could not figure out why, so he handed the elixir to Ye Zhou. In the eyes of the head of the Xu family full of expectation, Ye Zhou took the elixir and placed it on the table. He sniffed it gently with the tip of his nose, and then returned the elixir to the head of the Xu family.

The head of the Xu family looked at Ye Zhou and said, "Fellow Daoist Ye, did you see anything?"

Ye Zhou shook his head and said no. The look of expectation in the eyes of the head of the Xu family disappeared, and he looked quite disappointed.

At this time, the other monks standing in the room spoke one after another: "Clan Chief Xu, could you please give us this elixir for a look."

The head of the Xu family handed the jade box in his hand to the butler on the side, and motioned the butler to hand the elixir to them. Since Ye Zhou couldn't see the clues about the elixir, maybe others could find out.

The elixir was circulated among the monks for half an hour before returning to the butler's hands.

The head of the Xu family swept his eyes over the monks and saw that they were either in groups of three or two, gathering together to discuss the recipe for this elixir, or standing alone and thinking hard.

At this time, the head of the Xu family also felt a little tired. Ever since he got this strange disease, his energy had been declining day by day. He waved his hand and asked the housekeeper to send the monks out. When they came up with the elixir, they would come back to see him. .

He also ordered the housekeeper to arrange for someone to take the monk surnamed Ning down and keep him under safe supervision. No monk surnamed Ning could be allowed to leave without other orders.

All the monks bowed to the head of the Xu family, turned around and walked out of the room. Ye Zhou was closest to the bed of the head of the Xu family, so he naturally walked at the end.

Just when Ye Zhou was about to bow to the head of the Xu family and leave, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a faint black air floating out from the head of the Xu family's Dantian, and then quickly dissipated in the air. The black air was very light, and the monks present No one noticed the existence of this black energy, and even the head of the Xu family seemed to have no knowledge of this black energy.

Ye Zhou's face instantly became serious.

Ye Zhou also noticed that at the same time as this black energy appeared, the death energy on the head of the Xu family also became stronger. It seemed that the illness on the head of the Xu family was caused by this mysterious black energy, but he had just controlled it. When the spiritual power penetrated into the body of the head of the Xu family, he clearly did not find the existence of this black energy. Where did this black energy come from?

The head of the Xu family was about to close his eyes and rest his mind, but saw Ye Zhou standing beside his bed and not moving, so he said, "Fellow Daoist Ye, what else do you want to tell me? But I feel that the reward just given was too little?"

The head of the Xu family didn't wait for Ye Zhou to answer, then looked at the housekeeper beside him. The housekeeper understood immediately and was about to reach out to take out the storage bag from his arms when he saw Ye Zhou flashing and suddenly came to the bedside, his hands quickly Looking forward, he looked towards the dantian of the head of the Xu family.
