I Can Record Wonders

Chapter 55: The Moon is Dark and the Wind is High, It's Time to Kill

The night sea breeze permeated everything.

Even hiding in a corner, there was no way to escape.

Fu Ning silently recited the Three Provinces, forcefully suppressing the palpitations in his heart.

After a few breaths, he finally regained his composure.

"If I'm not mistaken, Yun Niang is the True Monarch of the 'Miao Clan' bloodline.

And the true motive of the 'Fake Fu Ning' and the stubble-faced man is to capture Yun Niang and refine the 'Human Yuan Pill'."

Fu Ning figured out the key point and once again focused his gaze on the direction of the bowing boat.

The fishing fire at the bow emitted an orange light.

Illuminating the entire deck.

Two figures, one in front and one behind, were very close to each other.

The 'Fake Fu Ning' stood at the bow of the boat, facing the sea with his back to the stubble-faced man, and said lightly,

"Has the other girl been found?"

The stubble-faced man stood behind the 'Fake Fu Ning' and glanced up slightly, saying, "No, we've searched every corner of the Cheng family, but still haven't found any trace of her."

"No?" The 'Fake Fu Ning' furrowed his brows lightly and muttered to himself, "Spirit Turtle Island is not that big, where could she be hiding?"

He pondered for a moment, his gaze shifting slightly, and the reflection of half a moon appeared in his pupils. "Half is fine too, keep an eye on her and don't let your guard down. The immediate priority now is the girl on the mountain."

Speaking of which, he suddenly changed the subject, "How much longer until the Green Candle Cauldron is delivered?"

The stubble-faced man pondered for a moment and said, "It will arrive within two days."

"Two days?" The 'Fake Fu Ning' turned around, a smile forming at the corner of his mouth. "Very well, now only the 'Blood Infant Grass' is left."

As he spoke, his gaze shifted and landed on the stubble-faced man's face.

The stubble-faced man dared not meet his gaze and quickly lowered his head, saying, "I will personally go to the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce later."

"That's good."

"I'll be relieved if you go."

After speaking, he quickly covered his mouth and coughed repeatedly.

"Master..." The stubble-faced man hesitated, unsure if the coughing was real or not.

The 'Fake Fu Ning' withdrew his gaze, reached out to cover the wound from yesterday, and his face turned pale. "I need some blood food, the more the better."

The stubble-faced man was taken aback, following his movements, he saw that the wound that had already improved yesterday was now oozing a large amount of blood. Under the light of the fishing fire, it looked particularly ferocious.

His gaze tightened. "How did this happen?"

The 'Fake Fu Ning' spoke in a low voice, anger hidden in his tone. "It was my carelessness, I didn't dodge in time."

"That kid used... a hidden weapon yesterday, it should have been refined from the Ghost Claw Huai of the Spirit Turtle Black Mountain."

"So there is Ghost Dao Qi hidden in the wound."

"Ghost Dao Qi!"

The stubble-faced man's expression changed, unable to help but exclaim.

Meanwhile, Fu Ning, who was hiding in the dark, brightened his eyes.

Ghost Dao Qi, also known as 'Yin Poison', once it enters the body, it will merge into the flesh and blood. At first, it may not be apparent, but the toxin lingers like silk, making it extremely difficult for the wound to heal.

"That Ghost Rope is truly worth its value~"

In his mind, he saw strong muscles and a lively little face.

"Sister Gan Lan has made great contributions."

On the other side, on the deck of the small boat, the stubble-faced man hesitated for a moment, then took out a black medicine bottle from his body. "This is the 'Scarlet Sun Pill', it should be able to counteract some of the Yin Poison."

"As for the blood food... I will deliver it by this time tomorrow."

The Scarlet Sun Pill can only counteract the spread of Yin Poison.

To completely resolve the Yin Poison, a large amount of flesh and blood is needed.

All things have their opposites, and life energy can counteract death energy.

And within flesh and blood, there is both death energy and life energy.

The Cloud Spirit Turtle refines the Origin Returning Pill by separating the life energy and death energy in the flesh and blood.

The 'life energy' condenses into 'Origin Returning Pill Qi', while the remaining 'death energy' is the 'Blood Poison Qi'.

However, the 'life energy' in fresh flesh and blood is far greater than the 'Blood Poison Qi'.

A small amount of Blood Poison Qi has little effect on the body.

Only those who frequently cultivate with flesh and blood will be affected by the 'Blood Poison Qi'.

At the same time, Fu Ning, who was hiding in the dark, narrowed his eyes. How coincidental, I also need blood food.

These past few days, due to the injury, the previously saved Origin Returning pills have been completely depleted.

I am in need of more blood food for alchemy.

"Fake Fu Ning" narrowed his eyes and nodded after receiving the pills: "Good, it's getting late, don't delay the auction of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce."

"Cough cough cough~"

After speaking, he covered his mouth with his left hand, concealed his right hand in his sleeve, and slightly bent his body, which was Fu Ning's signature move.

Fu Ning withdrew his gaze and admired in his heart: Truly worthy of being the "leader of the clan," playing the role so convincingly.

"I will leave now!"

Immediately, he turned into a black shadow and disappeared into the vast sea.

On the deck, "Fake Fu Ning" furrowed his brow tightly, and blood stains began to seep from his wound again.

"What a big trouble indeed."

He raised his head, his eyes scanning the surroundings. The sky was pitch black, the sea was dark, and his gaze could only see the endless ebb and flow of the tide.

After a moment of contemplation, he picked up the medicine bottle in his hand again, opened the stopper, and poured out a bright red pill, then swallowed it directly.

Then he extinguished the fishing fire at the bow of the ship, sat cross-legged on the deck, and in no time, a faint fluctuation of Origin Qi appeared on his body.

At the same time, Fu Ning, who was hiding in the corner, had eyes shining like stars.

According to the "Comprehensive Guide to Alchemy," the coldness of Yin poison spreads widely, and it can only be countered by pungent heat, transforming it into blood.

The Red Sun Pill is mainly made from fire attached to the aconite, and it takes dozens of pungent herbs to be refined in the furnace for a hundred days to be completed.

It is a highly heated pill and one of the most commonly used pills to suppress Yin poison.

Although this medicine can suppress Yin poison, it contains toxic herbs such as aconite, red kernel, and monkshood, making it a poison-toxin pill.

Therefore, after taking it, one must consume Origin Qi to dissolve the medicinal power and then use their mental power to control and suppress the Yin poison.

Otherwise, not only will the medicinal power greatly decrease, but there is also a possibility of being poisoned again.

This is why "Fake Fu Ning" immediately began meditating after swallowing the pill.

This can be seen from his conversation with Fu Ning just now.

Fu Ning has already gone to the "Four Seas Chamber of Commerce" and will not be back for a while.

In other words, there is only "Fake Fu Ning" left on the ship, who is seriously injured.

At this moment... if...

Fu Ning raised his head and looked at the crescent moon in the sky.

The faint clouds and mist covered the entire seaside, making it incredibly deep.

It's a dark night with a strong wind... the perfect time to kill.

However, he quickly suppressed the thought in his heart.

"Not yet!"

"Wait a little longer!"

Dissolving the medicinal power, controlling the medicinal power, and suppressing the Yin poison, the whole process would take at least a couple of hours.

Among them, controlling the medicinal power and suppressing the Yin poison are the most mentally exhausting.

By the time he takes action, the other party will definitely not be able to react in time.

Fu Ning doesn't know the true strength of "Fake Fu Ning."

So he must be cautious.

"Endure or not? Steady or not? Persist or not?"

He silently recited the three questions in his heart, and his gaze gradually became calm.

Time passed second by second, and Fu Ning's eyes remained fixed on the sky.

In the hazy mist, the crescent moon was half bright and half obscure.

Finally, he withdrew his gaze, and a cold light condensed in his eyes.

"Hoo~"

"The time has come!"
