Chapter 296 Xiaobai's Success
With the "Harmony of Dragon and Phoenix" given by the Mother of Lishan, the daily practice of Cheng Long and the other two was gradually replaced by dual cultivation.

As a result, their cultivation improved day by day.

Time flies by, and it's autumn again.

The autumn wind is bleak and the leaves are falling.

On this day, after Bai Suzhen and Cheng Long finished their daily dual cultivation, she suddenly had an inspiration. She sat in the man's arms and discussed opening a medicine shop. They even thought of a name: Bao'an Hall.

"You can open it if you want. I will do whatever you want."

Seeing Bai Suzhen's compassionate look like that of a bodhisattva, Cheng Long agreed very readily. Zizhulin was not far from Qiantang, so the two of them decisively opened a Bao'antang medicine shop in the county.

Cheng Long had been practicing for so long that he had some knowledge of the art of medicine. He and Bai Suzhen took turns seeing patients and prescribing medicine for the common people at low prices. Within two or three months, they had become famous in the county.

But with fame, life became busier and busier.

In addition, the two of them often studied and exchanged medical skills, which led to Xiaoqing being neglected and her life became more and more boring.

But this is life. After all kinds of settling down, the passion fades away, and what remains is just plain and stable life. Cheng Long and Xiao Bai both like this feeling and feel very happy.

Instead, their feelings became stronger and more inseparable.

As for Xiaoqing, if Cheng Long hadn't given her the devil contract in advance, she might have been unable to resist and sneaked out to have fun.

Of course, the fun here is not about being debauched and looking for wild men everywhere. This girl wanted to sneak out simply because she wanted to go out for a walk, instead of staying in Zizhulin waiting for her sister and brother-in-law to come home, or going to Bao'an Hall to help boil medicine.

That night, Cheng Long returned to the Cheng Mansion in Zizhulin after a day of consultation. After enjoying the home-cooked food cooked by Bai Suzhen, he glanced at the depressed Xiaoqing and smiled, "My wife, Bao'an Hall has been open for a year, and Xiaoqing has been locked up at home for a year. I want to take her out for a walk, otherwise I'm worried that she will be suffocated."

Bai Suzhen smiled and nodded, "Okay, take her out for some fresh air tomorrow. I can handle the security hall by myself, so we can play as long as we want."

"Sister, I knew you still love me..." Xiaoqing was delighted and jumped around with excitement, as if she had been given an injection of chicken blood.

"Well, as a reward, I'll have you all to myself tonight, is that okay with you?"

"No objection, no objection."

Xiao Qing kept replying: "Sister, you can do whatever you want tonight, no need to give me face."

"..."

Cheng Long looked up at Xiaoqing. This girl must be itching for trouble.

Bai Suzhen was in a playful mood. She grabbed the man's collar with her delicate hands and said with a sweet smile, "Sir, a night of spring is worth a thousand gold coins. Come with me into the room!"

"You devil, you're still so annoying."

Cheng Long cursed with a smile, then happily went into the room.

His passion for a wife as exquisite as Bai Suzhen would never fade away...

……

A month later.

In a roadside teahouse near Cangshan Mountain.

"Have you heard? Another child was captured in Wangjia Village next door. The child's parents died tragically at home, and their stomachs were ripped open by wild beasts!"

"Alas, this is the fifth case this month where a child has been arrested and his family has died tragically. The people in the government office are just sitting there doing nothing. After so long, they still haven't caught anyone."

"Who says it isn't?"

Hearing the conversation of several villagers who were resting next door, Cheng Long, who had entered the teahouse at some point, asked curiously, "Brothers, did the child being arrested only happen in Wangjia Village?"

"No, it happened in several nearby villages. It's just that Wangjia Village was unlucky that two incidents happened in a row..."

"Oh, where is Wangjia Village?"

"Just keep going south along the mountain road."

Cheng Long thanked her and immediately led the charming Xiaoqing, who was dressed in tight clothes, towards Wangjia Village.

They stopped and walked along the way, killing monsters when they encountered them and eliminating evil when they encountered it.

However, most of the vicious incidents mentioned by the villagers were caused by demons.

Following the winding mountain road, the two soon arrived at Wangjia Village. At this time, the whole village was filled with a sad atmosphere. Five times a month, children were kidnapped by monsters and family elders were brutally disemboweled. As a result, the villages large and small within a radius of dozens of miles were in a panic, and it seemed that the slightest disturbance would make people tremble with fear.

Normally, we have to wait until it gets completely dark before things can return to calm. But now, even before it gets dark, there is no one to be seen in the village.

Children who like to play are locked at home early and are not allowed to go anywhere.

In fact, these are all useless efforts.

Because the children who were abducted were basically those who were staying at home and were forcibly taken away by something. If their elders tried to stop them, they would be killed. The scene was horrific.

Acting so recklessly really scared a lot of people.

But even if the villagers knew that if their children were targeted, it would be useless to lock them up at home, but it would be better to keep them with them than to let them run around.

In the past month, there have been all kinds of legends. Some say the child was abducted by evil forces, some say he was taken away by wild beasts, and some are even more exaggerated, saying he was captured by some organization and trained to be a killer.

Anyway, there are many people and many rumors. You make blind guesses and I make blind guesses too. As word of mouth spreads, all kinds of rumors spread.

Xiaoqing walked into the village and frowned, "Brother-in-law, the people in the house seem to be very afraid of us..."

"Don't worry about them, just smell if there is any evil spirit nearby." Cheng Long didn't care about the villagers' attitudes. He just wanted to get rid of the evil things that did evil, no matter if they were evildoers or demons, he would kill them if he caught them.

Then, continue to travel around the beautiful country.

"Yeah, there's a strong smell of blood over there, and a faint smell of evil."

Snakes have a very sensitive sense of smell. After Xiaoqing transformed into a human, this talent did not fade away, but became stronger. It was now very easy for him to find monsters by their scent.

The night is as cold as water.

A lonely and cold moon hung high in the sky, casting a thin moonlight. Cheng Long, who was walking in the dense forest, suddenly stopped.

"Roar~~"

A tiger roar was heard, and then a black tiger jumped out from the darkness.

Seeing that the black tiger was about to pounce on Cheng Long, Xiaoqing excitedly flew up and spun her body, then kicked out with a whip kick, hitting the black tiger hard in the waist.

The black tiger's huge body suddenly crashed uncontrollably into a big tree behind it.

Bang!
The big tree broke in half.

The black tiger stood up shakily and was about to launch a second charge when he saw a bead emitting enchanting light appear above his head like lightning.

"Roar~~"

The black tiger used up all his strength and let out a final roar.

The next moment, its body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye. Although it was not the first time Xiaoqing had seen this scene, she was still very surprised, with her mouth wide open.

"Brother-in-law, if you kill it in one go, what will happen to the captured child?"

"They are all staying in the cave!"

Cheng Long's spiritual sense was fully extended, and he could instantly scan a hundred miles of land. As early as the moment the black tiger appeared, he had already found out everything, otherwise he would not have killed it so easily. "Are they all still alive?"

Xiaoqing was delighted.

After practicing with her kind sister for five hundred years, her heart also became kinder. When she learned that the captured children were fine, she was happy for the children from the bottom of her heart.

"They might as well be dead!"

Cheng Long sighed softly.

According to his spiritual sense, there were more than a dozen children imprisoned in a cave not far away. Each of them had their legs broken to prevent them from escaping.

The demon inside is so cruel that he will definitely kill him in a moment.

Cheng Long put away the bloodthirsty bead and took out the sword given by the Mother of Lishan.

The name of this sword is Fengming Sword, a top-grade acquired spiritual treasure. Although it is not as good as Monkey King's Ruyi Jingu Bang, it is also an extremely rare treasure. After being refined into a magic sword, its power will be greatly increased.

This is also the highest grade treasure he owns so far, one level higher than the Bloodthirsty Pearl.

……

Inside the cave.

In the quiet room, a Taoist priest sat cross-legged.

This Taoist wore his hair in a bun, had a mustache, and had a ruddy face. He looked like an immortal, but he was actually a genuine evil practitioner.

Suddenly, several oil lamps on the right side of the quiet room went out.

"The Black Tiger's life lamp has gone out. Who killed it?"

"I."

Cheng Long's voice came from outside the cave.

Xiedao suddenly felt something was wrong and decisively stood up and walked towards the secret cave deeper inside.

Soon, the Taoist went deeper into it, and suddenly it became clear that there was a wide open space inside. The light of the night pearl shone in all directions, illuminating the underground space.

In this vast underground space, there were actually many pregnant women sleeping. Looking around, there were at least thirty of them. I really had no idea where this evil sect had abducted so many pregnant women.

But considering that the other party is an evil cultivator, and can even enslave the tiger demon that has cultivated the demon pill, it is not difficult for him to abduct some pregnant women. In all likelihood, these pregnant women are the same as those children who were brutally abducted, and are controlled by the black tiger's minions.

The evildoer was dragging a red bottle in his hand, his impatient eyes fell on the pregnant women, and he couldn't help but reveal a hideous and cruel smile.

"After the Nine Demons are born, I will be the demon! Then, who can be my enemy? Hahahaha..."

The evil Nine Sons of Yin Demon had not yet completed his training, but he had already opened the champagne at halftime, thinking that he had won. He swayed and flashed among the pregnant women. Soon the Taoist came to the middle, swung the whisk in his hand, picked out the pregnant women one by one and rolled them in front of him.

"Not bad, not bad. The quality of these pregnant women is quite good. Black Tiger has received merit before he died. I will perform a ritual to save his soul when I become the Nine-Child Yin Demon!"

Xiedao grinned, and his smile became more and more perverted.

Then he waved his hand and the liquid in the bottle turned into gas, which scattered on the nine pregnant women in front of him.

Then the nine pregnant women woke up slowly with a groan, as if they had just had a dream.

These pregnant women had been in a coma since they were abducted, so when they woke up, their consciousness was still immersed in the moment they were abducted. They opened their eyes in a daze and saw that something was wrong with the surrounding scenery, and there was surprise on their faces.

Among them were several pregnant women with graceful temperaments, who were obviously not ordinary people. Although they also looked shocked, they quickly calmed down.

"This Taoist has captured so many pregnant women. What is he going to do?"

"doing what?"

The evil one seemed to have the ability to read minds, and he could actually understand the thoughts of several noble ladies. He said coldly: "Of course I will borrow your body to refine the Nine Demons!"

"If you want to practice evil skills, you need time. It's your bad luck to meet me and my brother-in-law tonight." As soon as the evil words fell, Cheng Long walked in slowly with Xiaoqing.

"Hmph, you've come at the right time. To refine the Nine-Child Yin Demon, we need the blood and essence of cultivators as a medicine." Xiedao is proficient in evil magic and cannot see through Xiaoqing and Cheng Long's cultivation level at all. He only hurriedly ran into the bottom of the cave to refine evil creatures when he vaguely sensed the threat.

"With your limited skills, you dare to speak so arrogantly."

Cheng Long smiled coldly.

The next second, he crossed a distance of dozens of meters and quietly appeared in front of Xiedao. He swung his sword and cut off Xiedao's head. His speed was so fast that it was like thunder.

The moment the evildoer's head suddenly moved away and his spirit was swept away by the Killing Technique, he instinctively raised his hands upwards, feeling really confused.

To be honest, these evil people are quite powerful. If Fahai wanted to subdue them, he would probably have to work hard.

The reason why Cheng Long can kill enemies so quickly is that, first, he is fast, and second, the killing skill can absorb the soul, which is commonly known as the spirit...

"Thank you for your help, benefactor!"

One of the kidnapped ladies saw the evildoer being killed and bowed in gratitude with great discernment.

Upon hearing this, others followed.

"Thank you very much, benefactor..."

"Wait here for me. I'll go save the child."

After a pause, Cheng Long turned around and looked at Xiao Qing, and said, "You stay and untie them. I'll go alone."

The children imprisoned on the other side all had their legs broken and needed to consume their essence, blood and energy to recover. If Cheng Long had not shown up today, these children would soon become nourishment for the evil way to refine the Nine Demons.

After spending some time healing a dozen children with broken legs, Cheng Long took them to reunite with Xiaoqing and sent these pregnant women and children to the nearest villages and towns overnight.

This incident was just one of many evil things he and Xiaoqing encountered during their inspections of the southern mountains over the next two years.

There are many monsters and evil cultivators who are more cruel than the evil ones.

Yes, during his inspection, Cheng Long encountered several local demon cultivators. However, these people only knew how to take shortcuts, killing people, drinking blood, and sucking souls. When he used his spiritual sense to sense the bloody scene in the demon cultivators' cave, he couldn't help but kill all of them.

Two years away.

The two returned to the Purple Bamboo Forest again. Bai Suzhen, who was sitting alone in Bao'an Hall, had an increasingly peaceful temperament, and was very similar to Sister Guanyin in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea.

There is no doubt that Xiaobai has found his own way.

Practicing medicine to save lives, curing illnesses and saving lives, gaining infinite merits and eventually achieving the right result.

And this kind of Bai Suzhen is becoming more and more like the White Snake who practiced for 1,700 years in "The Legend of the New White Snake".

The more dissolute side of him has now completely disappeared.

However, seeing her husband whom she hadn't seen for two years, Bai Suzhen still showed great enthusiasm and dominated Cheng Long for seven nights in a row. Her excited heart finally calmed down.

Over the next year or so.

Cheng Long and Bai Suzhen started taking turns to see patients again. He thought that such a happy life would continue for this year. However, Bao'an Hall had only been open for five years when Xiaobai felt something and said something very surprising to him.

"Sir, I will ascend to heaven next month!"
