Chapter 58: Cold liquid drives away temptation

A confusing and disorganized skill, more like a restraining skill in the game.

Players can understand their teammates' difficulties, will not cause too much conflict, and will not focus their fire on their teammates to death.

For players, it only takes two or three hits to replenish their health.

But this is not the case for normal people. If they are attacked by a warrior, they will bleed and get injured. If they are seriously hit in the eyes, ears or fingers, they may even become disabled.

In addition, the warriors cannot defend themselves against their comrades while fighting against the demons in the secret realm.

Therefore, the Yin Gui Hua Oiran broke the trust among the team with just two hits of the confusion skill, forcing the warriors to retreat urgently.

Fortunately, the officials and auxiliary soldiers of the County Office Construction Department were very helpful and dug the dry well at the entrance of the secret realm into a large stepped pit.

Otherwise, the continuous outflow of the twenty-man team of warriors would be enough to block the previous narrow shaft.

"Military doctor, come quickly and sew up the wound. Use the secret medicine. You must save my brother's arm."

Six provincial warriors carried two people out. One of them was carefully put down. The blood that kept flowing almost dyed half of his clothes red.

The warrior from the subordinate county who caused the wound stood behind Captain Jing'an with a bruised face and a worried look on his face, not knowing how to explain.

Captain Jing'an turned around and patted him on the shoulder, indicating that with him around, he would not allow revenge to happen.

The impact of the confusing skill was too great. Not only did it force the confident team of warriors to evacuate, it also risked triggering internal strife.

If the injured provincial warrior's arm cannot be restored to its original state, it is impossible for him not to resent the county warrior who injured him.

The warriors of the provincial capital and the warriors of Jing'an County are originally two groups.

At this moment, the wound that was so deep that the bone could be seen seemed to have turned into a chasm, leading the two different groups to confrontation.

"Jiang Ren, when we saw your request for help, we rushed to rescue you without regard for our own safety.

Now that such an accident has occurred, shouldn't you give us an explanation?"

"General Liu is right. Old Jia's arm is so badly injured that it's bone-piercing. I don't know when he'll recover.

If he was injured by a demon, it would be fine, but he was injured by his own people, how can you expect him not to feel resentful? "

The injured provincial warrior was quite tough. He bit the cotton cloth in his mouth and allowed the military doctor to suture him urgently.

But his face was flushed red, his cheek muscles were trembling, and sweat was oozing from his forehead, indicating that he was in serious pain at the moment.

"Don't worry, wait until Captain Jia finishes stitching the wound.

Captain Jia is the injured person, so we should definitely listen to his opinion on how to compensate him."

Captain Jing'an temporarily suppressed the dispute, and the two teams of warriors parted ways and went to different barracks to discuss matters.

In fact, there is not much room for both sides to back down. The county warriors respect the commander Jing'an, so once a problem arises, the commander Jing'an will naturally protect him.

Otherwise, the warriors from the subordinate counties would be living very comfortably in their own jurisdiction, so why would they go to Jing'an City and make enemies with the warriors from the provincial government?

On the side of the provincial governor's warriors, their comrades were injured. If they didn't seek justice for their comrades, how could they return to the provincial governor's camp?

Therefore, the Yin Gui Hua Kui was much more powerful than the Yin Gui Wenwu Kui. She hit the warrior team's soft spot with one blow, putting them in a dilemma.

As soon as he entered the barracks, Captain Jing'an spoke angrily.

"The demon that misleads people must be eliminated, otherwise this matter will never be resolved.

Only by killing that demon can we avenge Captain Jia. Otherwise, they will leave with resentment, and there will likely be trouble in the future."

"The issue of compensation is not a big deal. At most, we can just give them some more spiritual objects.

Everyone, please think about whether there is a way to exorcise the demons and dispel the chaos, and to reaffirm the loyalty of our colleagues."

The warriors from each county frowned and thought, but for a moment they had no idea and could not think of any way to resist the technique of confusing the mind.

Only Zhou Yuan thought of the Yin Fluid first, and the attribute panel gave a very detailed introduction to it.

【Quickly restores a small amount of Qi, superimposes the 'Yin-Cold' state, and while continuing to lose blood, alleviates negative states such as coma and temptation.】

The effect of alleviating the negative state of temptation can just counter the confusing skills of the ghost courtesan.

I just don't know how long it can last, and how many doses I need to take to eliminate the "confusing" effect.

But this is a direction, and also a way to complete the "Three Kui Techniques". Zhou Yuan thinks it is worth a try.

"Captain, do you still remember how you described the gray fog in the secret realm?

I wonder if the "invigorating the mind" mentioned in "harming the body but benefiting the qi, and the coldness but refreshing the mind" can counteract the evil spirits that confuse the mind."

"Hmm? Now that you mention it, I remember that this method might be worth a try.

County Lieutenant Cheng, go to the barracks and fetch a bottle of cold black liquid. I will drink it myself to test its refreshing effect and see how cold it is.

"promise."

Shangle County Lieutenant Cheng Fei took the order and left. Not long after, he brought back a half-meter-high long-necked vase.

Jing'an Captain Jiang Ren first dipped a few drops of liquor with chopsticks and put them into his mouth to savor it carefully. A quarter of an hour later, he changed the spoon to hold the liquid and took a small sip.

Zhou Yuan also used a portion of Yin-Ji Fluid through the inventory to experience its refreshing effect and how much damage it caused to his health bar.

Since the portion marked on the inventory was much larger than a tablespoon, Zhou Yuan couldn't be sure of Captain Jing'an's feelings.

Anyway, he felt as if his brain was suddenly soaked in ice water. All the tiny distracting thoughts disappeared, leaving only a feeling of coldness that quickly spread throughout his body.

Looking at the health bar again, it dropped 5% quickly, and after a while it dropped another 1%, and then slowly got rid of the cold state.

"The degree of health loss is controllable, and it can be used as an anti-confusion item."

Zhou Yuan has an attribute panel as a reference, which allows him to observe the quality of the Yin Fluid more intuitively.

Captain Jing'an was not so good. After tasting one spoonful, he drank another spoonful after a while, as if he was drinking some tonic.

Finally, after a quarter of an hour, or about half an hour, he put down the spoon and opened his closed eyes.

"I've often heard that where poisons appear, there are often antidotes. I never thought that such an unfounded saying could actually prove that there are demons in secret realms.

Everyone, this cold black liquid is indeed effective. When I first drank it, my brain felt like ice, but after drinking it again, I felt nothing but cold. It can probably be used to resist the evil spirits that bewitch my mind."

"Since it's useful, I might as well give it a try.

Holding no sharp weapons, only shields, even if bewitched by the demon, I will not harm my comrades."

"Good! If it can be proven that the cold black liquid can awaken the mind and resist delusion, then the injury sustained by Commandant Jia of the prefecture will not only be worthwhile, but will also be a great achievement."

After all, accumulated Yin fluid is harmful to the body, so the county warriors put it into several small porcelain bottles for easy use.

After re-entering the Yin Gui Secret Realm, the two archers Zhou Yuan and Cheng Fei kept a distance of about 100 meters from Captain Jing'an's shield formation.

In this way, you can provide quick support and avoid being chosen as a target by the ghost courtesan.

"Approach the three-story wooden building and drink the cold black liquid."

As she drank the Yin-Ji Liquid, the Yin Gui Hua Oiran's bewitching skills were indeed affected.

It still stood there empty-handed, but failed to trigger a new round of chaos, only causing a warrior from the subordinate county to feel a little dizzy.

"Use your shield to knock it down. Those who know how to use fist and palm seals, wait for an opportunity to attack."

The warriors from the subordinate county held their breath and had no time to experiment how long the Yin fluid could last.

They all raised their shields and surrounded her, firmly controlling the ghost courtesan.

"Zhou Yuan, I'll use the Blood Arrow technique, and you use the Three Stars Link technique to kill it as quickly as possible."

"Okay, I'll draw an arrow to hit the shield and remind them to make room."
