The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Chapter 435 Lin Kang is poisoned

"How dare you hurt Brother Lin Kang? I'll let you taste the power of my poison! Now you can't swallow the antidote!"

Yuanyuan squatted in front of the boss, removed his two arms, then pinched his mouth open and threw a pill of poison into it. After a moment, the boss rolled on the ground in pain.

Yuanyuan ignored him and quickly returned to Lin Kang and Lin Xi.

"Sister Lin Xi, how is Brother Lin Kang?"

Yuanyuan squatted quietly in front of Lin Kang, not daring to disturb Lin Xi. After Lin Xi withdrew his hand, she asked hurriedly.

"Yuanyuan, I'm fine. I was careless this time and underestimated my enemy. I knew he was extremely powerful with poison, but I still forgot to use my spiritual power to protect myself!"

Lin Kang opened his eyes, rubbed his round head, and spoke softly.

His eyes fell on the round, pink little mouth, and his face suddenly turned red when he remembered the softness of the mouth before.

"Okay, Yuanyuan, stay with my brother and rest here for a while! I'll go see how those bandits are being dealt with!"

Lin Xi looked at Lin Kang, whose neck was red, stood up and said to Yuanyuan with a smile.

"Okay, Sister Lin Xi, go ahead and get busy!"

Yuanyuan nodded at Lin Xi, then took out a handkerchief and water from the space ring, helped Lin Kang wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and urged him to drink some water.

Lin Xi walked up to the headmaster who was lying on the ground, being tortured and dying, squatted in front of him, sneered, and asked, "Is there anything else you want to confess?"

The big boss raised his head in embarrassment and looked at Lin Xi. Seeing the murderous intent in her eyes, his pupils shrank and he said with difficulty: "Don't, don't kill me. I'll tell you a secret. If you spare my life, I can serve you in the future. My poison skills are very powerful!"

Hearing this, Lin Xi raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand and injected a spiritual power into his body, protecting his internal organs, and said in a cold voice: "I'll give you a chance, tell me, what's the secret?"

The boss felt a warm current flowing into his chest. His whole body instantly felt much better and he regained some strength.

"In a valley not far from here, there is a village called Baijia Village. There is a very powerful master there. He has a method that can turn people with very powerful martial arts skills into puppets, making them obey his orders completely. All you have to do is subdue him and take away the method. Then you will have a group of very powerful subordinates!"

The boss paused for a moment, looked at Lin Xi and spoke slowly.

"So, he must have a group of experts under his command. If we go there rashly, do you think we will be killed by that master and his men?"

Lin Xi saw the gleam in the boss's eyes and said it deliberately.

"No, I just went to Baijia Village a few days ago. At that time, he hadn't found anyone with strong martial arts skills. He only had a few servants with average skills. It's not easy to find someone with strong martial arts skills, right?"

The boss looked at Lin Xi sincerely and said respectfully.

"Oh! You are really good at acting. Unfortunately, your wishful thinking will fail. The so-called master and his group of subordinates have been killed by me. You don't have to think about tricking us over and letting us fight with those people!"

Lin Xi sneered, exposing the boss's conspiracy, and then reached out to grab his neck, ready to send him to heaven.

"Wait! I was wrong. I won't play tricks anymore. I really have a secret. In the room where I make medicine, there is a basement where an old man is imprisoned. The old man was ambushed by the master of Baijia Village and then imprisoned here. It is said that the old man is a very capable person! Really, if you don't believe me, I'll take you to see it!"

The boss's arms had been removed by Yuanyuan before, so he could only watch Lin Xi strangling his neck and spoke anxiously.

"Lead the way!"

Lin Xi picked up the boss, pushed him, and asked him to take her to the pharmacy.

"Sister, we have already wiped out all those bandits!"

At this time, Lin Ping trotted to Lin Xi and reported to her.

"Let's take good care of the bandit's body, then get some rest!"

Lin Xi raised his hand and rubbed Lin Ping's little head, saying with a smile.

"Yes, sister!"

Lin Ping rubbed his head against Lin Xi's hands like a puppy, then gave her a bright smile and ran towards the kids in Linshan Village to convey Lin Xi's arrangements.

"Let's go! You'd better stop playing any tricks, or I'll make you feel like you can't live or die!"

After Lin Ping left, Lin Xi said coldly to the boss who was secretly glancing at her friends.

When the boss heard Lin Xi's words, he quickly lowered his head, pretended to be honest, and staggered towards the pharmacy with Lin Xi.

"It's right here. From this cabinet you can reach the underground secret room!"

After the two of them walked into the room, the boss looked at the cabinet that he had stuffed full of things and said to Lin Xi.

Lin Xi did not touch the cabinet immediately, but walked around the pharmacy. From time to time, she picked up a bottle of medicine and smelled it. She was secretly shocked. She did not expect that this bandit was so powerful that he could actually refine so many powerful poisons.

After checking everything, Lin Xi slowly walked to the cabinet, looked at it, and then suddenly put the boss's two arms back.

"Find this passage!"

Lin Xi let go of the boss's arm, clapped his hands, pointed at the cabinet in front of him and gave instructions.

"Yes!"

The boss didn't dare to refuse. He raised his arm with great effort to open the cabinet door and took out all the things he had stuffed into the cabinet not long ago.

Lin Xi saw a wooden board exposed on the wall. The boss pressed a raised wooden block at the lower left corner of the board. With a swish, the board opened automatically, revealing a hole.

"You go down first!"

Lin Xi looked at the dark hole leading to the ground and gave a cold order to the boss.

The boss could only crawl slowly and obediently. Lin Xi had an idea and took out a night pearl from the boundary bead, holding it up and followed the boss.

The two soon reached the underground secret room. The boss felt around on the wall, lit the oil lamp on the wall, and pointed at the figure leaning against the corner and said, "That's him!"

Lin Xi looked in the direction he pointed, and saw an old man with white hair sitting there with his eyes closed. His wrists and ankles were locked with thick iron chains embedded in the wall.

The secret room suddenly became bright. Perhaps the old man couldn't adapt to the light all at once. He raised his hands to cover his eyes. After a while, he tentatively opened his eyes to adapt to the light that he hadn't seen for a long time.

Lin Xi walked up to him and looked at him carefully.

"Little girl, you look pretty and have clear eyes. You don't look like a bad person. How could you get mixed up with these bandits?"

While Lin Xi was looking at the old man, he was also observing Lin Xi. He suddenly smiled, stroking his beard with his hand and said.

The chains on his hands rattled as he moved.

Lin Xi looked at the old man who looked relaxed and even a bit like an immortal, and was filled with surprise and confusion. This was not at all the state that a person who had been imprisoned and tortured should be in.

"Little girl, be careful!"

The old man's face suddenly changed, and he waved his hand lightly, knocking the boss who had attacked Lin Xi away and killing him!

He has spiritual power in his body!

Lin Xi stared at the old man with eyes wide open and asked, "Are you a cultivator?"

"Yes, little girl, we are all in the same boat. It is fate that we met. Please save me quickly. From now on, you will be my savior. I can help you do things to repay you for saving my life!"

The old man raised his hand and pointed at the chains on his wrists and ankles, looked at Lin Xi and said with a smile, he looked like he was going to kidnap a child.

"Old man, don't tell me you can't break this ordinary chain!"

Lin Xi stood in front of the old man, crossed his arms, looked at him with raised eyebrows and said.

"Aiya! Little girl, why do you want to expose me? It's not fun anymore!"

When the old man saw that Lin Xi had exposed him, he stopped pretending. His body shook, and the chains that bound him instantly turned into powder. He stood up, straightened his clothes, and looked at Lin Xi with a smile without saying a word.

Lin Xi was secretly shocked when she saw this. The old man's cultivation was far superior to hers, but she could feel that he had no ill will towards her. She even felt a sense of familiarity and kindness from the old man.

Who is this person?

"Who are you? Why are you acting in this drama?"

Lin Xi squinted his eyes and looked the old man up and down, and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

"Oh! I just thought it was fun and wanted to see what the guy who caught me was going to do. Who knew that after he brought me here, he never showed up again!"

The old man shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands.

"Are you talking about that evil cultivator? I have killed him!"

"Little girl, you are really amazing. You are truly a heroine. You have done a great deed for the people of this world. I admire you so much! I have decided that I will follow you, little girl, from now on!"

Hearing the old man's words, Lin Xi stared into his eyes and asked, "Since you knew that man was an evil cultivator, why didn't you kill him when he attacked you? You should know that if you let him go, many people would be killed."

Lin Xi did not mean to blame him or blackmail him morally, but she did have this doubt because she had heard Xiaobai and the others say before that those who practice immortal arts always kill any evil cultivators they see, and that their methods of practice are really too cruel and against the harmony of nature!

"Little girl, you will understand in the future. With my level of cultivation, I cannot interfere too much in the affairs of this world. Everything has its own destiny!"

The old man stroked his beard and spoke slowly.

"Okay, little girl, let's hurry up and get up. It's really uncomfortable to stay down here. I've been here for so long, I'm almost suffocating!"

Without waiting for Lin Xi to speak, the old man pulled up her sleeve and pulled her upwards.

For some reason, Lin Xi didn't mind his touch, and didn't want to shake off his hand at all, so she followed him out of the secret room.

"By the way, little girl, what's your name? Let's get to know each other. Please take good care of me, an old man. My name is Fan Xing!"

After walking out of the closet, the old man let go of Lin Xi's sleeve, looked at him with a smile and asked.

"My name is Lin Xi!"

Lin Xi answered simply and did not respond to Fan Xing's request for her to take good care of him.

"Lin Xi girl, this is my gift to you, please keep it! It's a good thing!"

Seeing that Lin Xi didn't seem to want to keep him around, Fan Xing rolled his eyes and suddenly a crystal clear jade token appeared in his hand. He stuffed the jade token into Lin Xi's hand and said with a kind face.

"Old man, what is this?"

Lin Xi looked at the jade token carefully, looked at Fan Xing and asked with a raised eyebrow.

Hearing Lin Xi calling him old man, Fan Xing's eyebrows twitched. This girl clearly had no memory of that time, so why did she still call him like that? He still wanted to make her call him master in this life and train her to be a good disciple!

Take it slow, this girl is rebellious, you have to go along with her, you can't force her. He can't bear to force her, it's too late to pamper her!

After thinking about it, Fan Xing pointed at the jade token in Lin Xi's hand and said with a smile: "I am a formation master. This is a protective formation I made. You can inject spiritual power into it and place this formation where you want. No one in this world can break through my formation. How about it, little girl, this is a great gift!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Xi injected a ray of spiritual power into the jade token. After feeling the power of the formation, she withdrew the spiritual power.

She had originally planned to return this thing to the old man, after all, she had to be grateful for what she had received. However, after knowing the power of this formation, she was reluctant to give it back, because she really needed this thing. With this formation, she would not have to worry about the safety of Linshan Village, and she could deal with the evil cultivator who set up the evil formation in this world without any worries!

She looked up at Fan Xing, who was looking at her smugly, as if asking for praise, and asked, "You wouldn't give me such an expensive gift for no reason, right? What are the conditions? Tell me!"

"I see that you are a good candidate for cultivation, so I want to take you in as my apprentice and pass on my skills. What do you think? I am very capable. I not only know how to form formations, but also how to refine weapons and medicine. Many people begged to be my apprentices, but I refused to accept them. Little girl, you must seize the opportunity!"

Fan Xing said with his chin raised proudly.

"Just accepting me as your apprentice, no other conditions? You don't have any powerful enemies who want to train me to avenge you, right?"

Lin Xi blinked and looked at Fan Xing and asked.

Why is this damn girl so suspicious?

Fan Xing complained in his heart, but said sincerely on his face: "Of course, I just want to accept an excellent disciple. If I have any bad intentions, let me die!"

After Fan Xing finished speaking, he raised three fingers and swore to the sky.

Seeing this, Lin Xi felt relieved. If a cultivator breaks his oath, it will really come true.

"Okay, then I'll take you as my master, old man. Come on, I'll take you to meet my friends!"

Lin Xi said with a smile, and then pulled Fan Xing towards Lin Kang and the others.
