Chapter 492 It takes no effort at all

Under Lao Changtai's careful care, Huang Yingying finally recovered. When she saw Wu Jinliang, she burst into tears and sobbed, "Master Gao, this is all my fault. I don't want the fifty gold coins anymore. They are all in my pocket. You can take them. Can you let me go?"

Wu Jin pointed his dagger in both hands and said, "Can you please talk nicely?"

Huang Yingying stopped crying immediately and said sadly: "I have always been speaking nicely, but you didn't give me the chance to speak nicely."

Wu Jinliang didn't like what he heard and pointed at the killers, "You said you don't know them, so you call that a polite conversation?"

Well, Huang Yingying didn't feel wronged anymore. Her face was completely distorted, but she could still see some embarrassment. She continued to beg, "Master Gao, we are acquainted after all. We ate and drank together, had fun together, and visited brothels together. You can't just turn your back on me and disown me!"

The two of them still have such a relationship? Lao Changtai turned his head and looked at Wu Jinliang. He believed this.

Wu Jinliang waved the dagger in his hand, "Don't go off topic. Tell me, what's the matter with that Axun Lord having the 'Que Si Xiang'? If you can't explain it clearly..." He stretched out his hand and pulled a strand of the other person's hair, and pulled it on the sharp blade, breaking it, "Our friendship ends here."

Huang Yingying said with a sad face: "You wouldn't believe me even if I told you. You hit me as soon as I opened my mouth about the 'Que Si Xiang' thing. If I continue to talk about it, I will die in your hands. How can I dare to continue talking about it?"

Wu Jinliang was also a little embarrassed, but luckily he had the right to speak now. He was not embarrassed, but others were the ones who were sad. He snorted and said, "Speak nicely this time. How did you know that Master Axun had the 'Quesixiang'?"

Huang Yingying sighed and said, "He was actually the one who caused the corpse transformation back then."

“……”Wu Jinliang and Lao Changtai looked at each other.

Not to mention them, even the surviving killers were stunned when they heard it.

Lao Changtai suddenly revealed his original voice and asked, "How do you know that it was that Master Axun who did it?"

After saying this, I realized that I had not disguised my voice.

Huang Yingying sighed, "As soon as he came to Dazhi City, I noticed him. I found that he would sometimes buy some strange things, and then I paid more attention to him. It turned out that he often went out of the city quietly. I don't know where he went, but I think he must have gone somewhere. In order to find that place, I spent a long time and a lot of energy, and finally found his secret base..."

"No..." Lao Changtai interrupted him, suspicious, "Why are you paying so much attention to him? Compared with his status and position, do you have the qualifications to be associated with him? Just because he bought some strange things, you have to follow him and pry into his privacy?"

Wu Jinliang could fully understand his companion's suspicion, but he knew that this old man was just like that, so he tried to dissuade him, "Let him talk, just let him talk." Then he said to Huang Yingying, "It's okay, just continue talking."

The big guy was finally able to speak properly. Huang Yingying was almost moved to tears. After a weak sob, he spoke up for Lao Changtai and said, "This brother is right. I just noticed him at first. The real reason I followed him was because of the things he bought, plus his background, which aroused my suspicion."

Wu Jinliang asked: "What do you mean by this?"

Huang Yingying said: "Because I happen to know what refining materials are needed to refine the 'Que Si Xiang', and the main refining materials come from the Divine Mountain, and Master Xun is from the Divine Mountain, so I suspected that he had a secret base somewhere outside the city, so I took the risk to follow him.

When I noticed him, I asked people in the city and the mountains about him. I knew he had a keen sense of smell. In order to track him, I put something on my body to seal my scent, and tried to approach from the downwind direction. I also used my earth escape technique, and finally my efforts paid off..."

"Wait, wait." Wu Jinliang, who was confused by what he heard, came to his senses and saw that he was still talking. He quickly stopped and asked, "Did I hear correctly? Do you know the materials needed to refine the 'Quesi Xiang'?"

Huang Yingying nodded, indicating that it was correct.

Wu Jinliang continued to ask: "Then can I understand that you can refine the 'Quesixiang'?"

Huang Yingying hummed and said, "I know the method, but I have never refined it."

Wu Jinliang shook the knife in his hand again and said, "You old man, you didn't realize that we came here for the 'Que Si Xiang', and you said this on purpose to save your life, right?"

Huang Yingying hurriedly defended herself, "No, no, absolutely not. I'm telling the truth. If I tell a lie, I'll be struck by lightning."

In fact, I knew it very well in my heart, and it was for that reason that I said it on purpose.

Wu Jinliang bared his teeth and gestured: "Are you telling too few lies?"

Huang Yingying said in a panic: "This time it is definitely true. The method of refining 'Death Refusal Incense' is actually not difficult. The real difficulty is that the main refining material is hard to find. This material is called 'Soul Reversal Tree' and it grows on the sacred mountain."

Lao Changtai didn't react much to this, but Wu Jinliang reacted the most. He asked in surprise, "Doesn't the 'Soul-Returning Tree' grow on 'Shen Niao Mountain'?" Huang Yingying, on the other hand, said as if it was a matter of course, "'Shen Mountain' was called 'Shen Niao Mountain' before."

"Ah?" Wu Jinliang said in a lost voice, "'Shenshan' is 'Shenniao Mountain'? Who the hell came up with this name with only one character difference?"

No wonder he cursed after searching for the place for so long, and it was right in front of him. Isn't this a big deal?

Huang Yingying said: "The earliest name of the sacred mountain was 'Shen Niao Mountain'. It was originally the territory of the Phoenix Clan of Fenglinzhou. Later, a master took a fancy to 'Shen Niao Mountain', defeated the Phoenix Clan, occupied 'Shen Niao Mountain', changed its name to 'Jin Que Mountain', and enslaved the Phoenix Clan. Later, the master was killed by the Demon Ancestor, and the Phoenix Clan occupied 'Jin Que Mountain' again. In order to avenge the shame, the Phoenix Clan has enslaved the clansmen of the master for generations, and changed the name of 'Jin Que Mountain' back to 'Shen Niao Mountain'. Later, it seems that they felt that the name 'Shen Niao Mountain' was too vulgar, so they called it 'Shen Mountain'..."

He was stunned for a moment, and found that Wu Jinliang's expression seemed to be extremely abnormal. He looked dazed and twisted, and bared his teeth from time to time, which made him nervous and said, "I am telling the truth, not a single word is false. If you don't believe me, go check it out."

Wu Jinliang snorted. What the hell is there to verify? If he could verify it, why would he be here to talk to this old man? He swallowed his saliva and came back to his senses: "You just said that 'Shenshan' is 'Shenniao Mountain', or 'Jinque Mountain'?"

Huang Yingying replied weakly: "Yes, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this."

Lao Changtai also looked at Wu Jinliang with suspicion, not knowing what this big hehe meant.

Wu Jinliang asked again: "Is the master who enslaved the Phoenix Clan named 'Jin Zhan'?"

Huang Yingying immediately gave a voice of sincere praise, "Master Gao is indeed very knowledgeable. He even knows this. Nowadays, not many people know the names of such ancient figures."

Wu Jinliang suddenly stood up and left, striding out of the cave. This move left Huang Yingying and Lao Changtai a little confused.

Lao Changtai didn't know what was wrong with him, so he got up and followed to see. He found that Wu Jinliang outside the cave seemed to have taken the wrong medicine. He scratched his head hard with his left hand, then switched to his right hand, and walked back and forth quickly like a madman.

Then he slapped his hands on his face, shouted "No", turned around and hurried back to the cave.

What's wrong? Lao Changtai followed in to check.

Wu Jinliang squatted in front of Huang Yingying again, grabbing the small tuft of beard on his chin, "Old Huang, I remember I asked you if you had heard of 'Shen Niao Mountain', and you said you hadn't heard of it. I also asked you about the corpse transformation that year, and you said you didn't know. Old man, how come you know everything now, even what happened in other people's ancestral tombs, and you still dare to say you didn't fool me?"

Huang Yingying immediately protested, "I definitely said I didn't know. I can't tell you that Master Xun made the 'Quesixiang', right?"

Wu Jinliang pulled his beard hard, "Why can't you tell me about the 'Shen Niao Mountain'?"

If the other party had told him this earlier, he and Shi Chun would have saved a lot of trouble.

Huang Yingying said with a bitter face: "I was born into a clan that was enslaved by the Phoenix Clan for generations. I was finally released from the foot of the sacred mountain. I really don't want to talk about the past of 'Shen Niao Mountain'. I had just met you at that time and we were not very familiar with each other. How could I know if you were sent by the sacred mountain to test me, so I dare not say more. I didn't mean to deceive you."

Wu Jinliang was stunned again. He let go of his beard and pulled at his unrecognizable face. Suddenly, he held his face with both hands and asked in surprise, "In other words, you are the descendant of Jin Zhan?"

Huang Yingying, with her cheeks pressed together, mumbled, "It doesn't matter who is a descendant or not. The glory of our ancestors has long gone, and now we are just trying to survive. I am still living a good life, having escaped from slavery, but my fellow tribesmen at the foot of the sacred mountain have been living in unrest for generations."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk..." Wu Jinliang smacked his lips for a while, and then held Huang Yingying's face and looked at it for a while before letting go. "It's true, your ancestors' glory really doesn't exist on you at all. You're already old and almost in the coffin, but you haven't even reached a high level of martial arts cultivation. I really admire you."

Huang Yingying sighed and said, "Master Gao, being incompetent is also a blessing. If I were not incompetent, how could the God Mountain give me freedom? I am afraid I would still be a slave at the foot of the God Mountain, and you and I would never have the chance to meet."

"No chance, fate..." Wu Jinliang stared at him and muttered for a while, then suddenly turned over and sat on the ground, leaning against the wall of the cave, hugging his knees and laughing endlessly.

He really didn't expect that what he was looking for would either never be found with any clues or it would suddenly all reveal itself.

I really didn't expect that all this had been around him all along. I actually ran into him in a brothel. Such an outrageous thing happened. If this isn't fate, what is it?
He found it funny just thinking about it. He wondered how Chuntian would react when she found out. If Chuntian advised him to go to brothels less often in the future, he would have something to say.

Lao Changtai didn't know what he was laughing at, and "hehe" actually turned into "haha".

After finally catching his breath, Wu Jinliang raised his head and leaned against the wall, waving his hands cheerfully and boredly as he said, "Old Huang, go ahead and continue talking about that Axun-sama."

"It is rare to see mature 'Soul-Returning Trees' now. If they are not mature, they are still souls. Even the people on the sacred mountain find it difficult to find them. I guess the reason why Master Xun was able to find the refining material is probably related to his sense of smell..."
