After making up his mind, Dong Lang began to search the vicinity. The herbs that could be used to make Ecstasy were all very common, so the growth conditions weren't that harsh. The forest, hills, and plains could grow, and indeed, within a few dozen kilometers of the village, Dong Lang found seven or eight types of medicinal herbs that could make people faint, and even create illusions. Thus, he gathered a few of each pellets. Of course, there were also those for Shu Qin to consume. Just as Dong Lang was about to go back, he seemed to see a figure from afar. With curiosity, Dong Lang walked over.

It really was a person carrying a medicinal basket. The person wore a grey robe and his face was somewhat dark. At this time, that person seemed to have also seen Dong Lang. Eh? Little fellow, are you lost? " The man looked at Dong Lang and said.

"No, I'm just here to pick some herbs. My friend is sick." Dong Lang looked at the stranger in front of him, and told him the whole story.

"Oh? I also have some medical skills, if you do not mind, I can help diagnose your friend's condition. " The man said to Dong Lang.

"Thank you, but I only need a small amount of herbs." Dong Lang thanked him for his good intentions. With that, he turned and left. Actually, Dong Lang felt that the person in front of him was not bad, but when they were talking, he felt that something was off. Thus, they left after a short conversation.

Looking at Dong Lang's disappearing figure, that person's smile froze as well, and said gloomily: "If I were you, I wouldn't waste my breath talking so much. The more you talk, the more danger you will face. "

Returning back to the village, Dong Lang finished cooking the medicine and gave it to Shu Qin to drink. At this moment, the sky gradually darkened.

"What should we do tonight?" Shu Qin asked.

"Let's be careful. We'll be in the house tonight, so don't go out. Dong Lang, can you wrap the house with your ice, and only leave a hole on the roof to breathe through? "

"That's fine. I'll do it when all the villagers are here. " Dong Lang replied.

After an hour, all the villagers were gathered. Dong Lang stabbed his sword into the ground, and with a pair of hands, he stood up. In a split-second, the temperature around the house plummeted, and a thin layer of ice began to form. The villagers were all stunned by what they saw. The praises sounded out one after another, causing the three of them to feel a little embarrassed. Amidst the villagers' praises, the Ice wall finally formed and coincidentally wrapped around the house, leaving behind a ventilation hole.

"Why are we doing this?" Dong Lang looked at Shu Jian doubtfully. "Faintly treating Shu Jian as a strategist." I'll tell you when the villagers sleep. " Shu Jian kept them in suspense. Ye Zichen laughed as he spoke.

After about four hours, the villagers finally lost their initial excitement and slowly fell asleep. At this time, Shu Qin couldn't help but ask Shu Jian out of curiosity.

Shu Jian said unhurriedly: "I'm guessing that the Ecstasy among the villagers last night and Shu Qin's abnormality must have been caused by the combination of medicine and magic. As for the medicine, it is spread by wind and air, building up a Ice wall, the room's temperature will be lowered and the lower level of cold air that is not easy to go out from, the air that is possibly mixed with Ecstasy will also not be easy to descend, and this will also reduce the risk of being drugged. Even if a few Ecstasy came in, it is still only a small amount, so we can support it for a while. Also, even if we can't see the effects of the medicine, once they fuse with the water vapor produced by the Ice wall and stick to our skin for a long time, they will eventually reveal a little bit of it. Also, there's a double insurance. I once learned a small-scaled formation called 'Shui Wei' from my master. This formation can detect things that we can't see, and the moment something breaks in, the formation will collapse on its own. This will help us to be more vigilant. " With that, Shu Jian held his hands together and turned counterclockwise. A brown light flashed, and after that, he waved his hands in four different directions, and four rays of light flew towards the east, west, south and north corners of the house. The lights from the four corners slowly extended until they eventually connected and formed a small stream that surrounded the house from the inside.

Hearing Shu Jian's explanation, Dong Lang and Shu Qin suddenly realized. "Good idea." Dong Lang praised. Just then, he suddenly felt a terrible pain in his stomach, he sat down on the ground and quickly channeled the True Essence in his body to attack his stomach. The channels and channels that the True Essence passed through made Dong Lang feel warm. Even so, the pain in his stomach was only alleviated by a little bit. Big beads of sweat fell from Dong Lang's forehead, and instantly, his clothes were drenched.

"What's wrong with you, Dong Lang?" Seeing that something was wrong with Dong Lang, he ran over.

"No, I don't know." Dong Lang clenched his teeth, and these words came out from his mouth. After saying that, he closed his eyes and did not speak any further. His body began to tremble from the intense pain. At this time, Shu Jian walked over with a lame leg.

"Brother, what's wrong with Dong Lang?" Shu Qin hurriedly asked as he looked at Dong Lang. Shu Jian anxiously took Dong Lang's pulse. He was actually poisoned? "What's going on?" Shu Jian lost his voice.

"If you want to know what happened, I probably poisoned him. "Hee hee." While Shu Jian was panicking in panic, a sinister laughter came from outside the Ice wall.

"Is it happening again? Dammit, why would it be at this time? " Shu Jian said as he gnashed his teeth. At the same time, Shu Qin finally took down the guqin from his back.

"You haven't mastered that move yet. Don't use it now." Shu Jian turned and said to Shu Qin. At this time, Dong Lang still did not say a word, and did his best to circulate his True Essence to resist the pain.

"I didn't want to kill you guys right now, but you guys are really too untactful. Then I'll reluctantly send you two on your way. " "As the voice fell, the Ice wall instantly crumbled. The Weakening Water Formation also seemed to let out a wail and disappeared. A man dressed in a black robe's robe appeared in front of the three of them. As for Shu Jian, due to inconvenience in moving, more than half of his body was submerged in the layer of ice.

"Poisonous." Shu Jian shouted in shock. At this time, Shu Qin did not care about Shu Jian's warning. She sat down cross-legged and played with the zither strings with her jade hands, and the melodious sound of the zither resonated through the night. At this moment, Shu Qin's originally somewhat flushed face had turned pale again. A faint light aura appeared above Shu Qin. It seemed like there was something inside, but he could not see through it.

"What a familiar voice. "Who is this?" Dong Lang thought back to when people he knew appeared in his mind one by one. Who could it be? Who could it be?

"You're the one in the day." Dong Lang asked while enduring the pain in his stomach.

"You know him?" Shu Jian was startled when he heard Dong Lang's words.

"We met during the day when we were picking herbs." However, at that time, he didn't expect it to be him. Dong Lang spoke a few words before stopping to take a few breaths.

"A brat is a kid. If you didn't say those words to me, then maybe the poison I administered wouldn't have been able to hurt you." If you want to blame something, blame your curiosity. " The Black Man said as he carefully looked at Shu Qin. Shu Qin's playing of the guqin gave him a stifling feeling, causing him to not dare to act recklessly. At this time, the light above Shu Qin's head suddenly grew dim, and a thin ray of light shot towards Black Man, as if it was real. Black Man's figure moved, wanting to avoid the ray of light. However, right after he moved, the ray of light changed direction and headed towards Black Man. The Black Man spat out a mouthful of blood, and the light landed on his body. Black Man immediately retreated to the outside door. At the same time, Shu Qin spat out a mouthful of blood and laid down on the zither, unconscious. The light also disappeared.

Because of the pain in his body, Dong Lang couldn't even move an inch. In a short period of time, it was a scene of both sides getting hurt.
