The Southern Wilderness is the living area of Wanshanhong, and Wanshanhong is very familiar with the situation of the various tribes in the Southern Wilderness, and on the way to the south, he briefly introduced the situation of the snake tribe to Wu Zhongyuan.

The snake clan is a different race, the people are all kinds of snakes, settled in the Taiyin Mountain on the bank of the Lishui River, the number is about 1,000 people, according to legend, the ancestors of the snake clan once followed Fuxi Nuwa to pacify the six paths, so the snake clan not only has the heart of practicing qi, but also proficient in various formations.

The snake clan mostly takes the color of the body as the surname, the black snake surname is black, the white snake surname is white, and so on.

The patriarch of the snake clan is a woman, named Red Chain Huarong, Purple Qi Cave Yuan cultivation, the body is a red chain snake that has been practiced for thousands of years, this person lives in a shallow way, so the world knows little about it, only knows that this person has a yin temperament, ruthless and ruthless.

Hearing Wan Shanhong's words, Wu Zhongyuan asked, "Have you ever dealt with this person?"

"A few faces, a general acquaintance. Wan Shanhong said.

"Will it sell you face?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

Wan Shanhong thought for a while and said, "We're not going to find trouble with them, we're just looking for clues, and it won't let us shut up." ”

Wu Zhongyuan nodded, if it was other tribes, if they dared to turn the two away, he might come hard, but the ancestors of the snake clan once followed Fuxi to pacify the Six Paths, but after being a hero, try not to meet with them.

Lishui, where the snake tribe is located, is located in the southwest region of the Southern Wilderness, and Taipingzhai is located in the east of the Southern Wilderness. When he arrived at the boundary of Goat Valley, Wu Zhongyuan changed his mind, he had to go to the two places of the Snake Clan and Taipingzhai this time, and it was better to go to Taipingzhai first after thinking about it carefully, and find out the situation of the little leader surnamed Zhou, and then go to the Snake Clan to be more targeted, and the causes and consequences can also be explained in more detail, so as not to suspect that the Snake Clan has no purpose.

Thinking of this, he asked Wan Shanhong's opinion, Wan Shanhong didn't have any opinion, these two places had to go anyway, and the order didn't matter.

The Central Plains is very large, the southern wilderness, the northern frontier, the western desert, the East China Sea is also very large, the giant eagle carried two people, the flight was not fast, the time to leave, until noon only arrived at the Taiping Mountain where the Taiping Village is located.

Wu Zhongyuan had come to Taiping Village before, that time it was for Luming Valley, Dong Yunju robbed the daughter of the old patriarch, and he came to help ask for someone.

Most of the minions in Taipingzhai knew Wu Zhongyuan, and it happened to be the little leader who had escorted Tongtie to the north before, seeing Wu Zhongyuan and Wan Shanhong coming, he hurriedly sent someone to inform Dong Yunju, and then hurriedly ran out to greet him.

This little boss only knows Wu Zhongyuan, and does not know Wan Shanhong, and now Wu Zhongyuan's accession to the throne as emperor has been widely known, and this person has also heard of it, and his attitude is very respectful, and the etiquette is very thorough.

Not long after, Dong Yunju rushed out, not seen for many days, and was startled when he saw Dong Yunju Wu Zhongyuan again, Dong Yunju was originally a big fat man of several hundred pounds, less than two years after counting the head and tail, Dong Yunju was already thin and not human, I am afraid that it would not be a hundred catties, if it were not for the clothes he was wearing and the Taixuan cultivation, Wu Zhongyuan couldn't believe that the skinny and depressed old man in front of him was Dong Yunju.

Dong Yunju didn't know the real purpose of the two of them, only when Wu Zhongyuan came to accept, before Wu Zhongyuan forcibly gave him a marriage in order to punish him, and gave him a cook of more than 200 catties, this is not the most fatal, the worst thing is that Wu Zhongyuan also set a date, if the time is up, the fat cook is not pregnant, so he will come to send him to the end.

Dong Yunju himself is a big fat man, but he likes thin women, and now he is forced to marry a fat woman in her forties, she has no appetite when she looks at it, but she still has to eat hard, if the fat woman is not pregnant after the deadline, his old life will be gone, in order to survive, you have to eat if you don't like to eat, eat during the day, eat at night, and finally some time ago the fat woman was pregnant, Dong Yunju sent someone north to report the good news, when he was in the South China Sea, it was the Ministry of Rites to receive and send a congratulatory gift.

Dong Yunju knew Wan Shanhong, and also knew that she had a good relationship with Wu Zhongyuan, and after meeting Wu Zhongyuan, she spoke to Wan Shanhong enthusiastically, this old thing is very cunning, and knows who to please.

Wan Shanhong didn't know why Dong Yunju was thin, but Wu Zhongyuan knew that it was said that wine was a poison that pierced the intestines, and the color was a steel knife that scraped bones.

Dong Yunju also knew that Wu Zhongyuan didn't have any good intentions when he gave him the cook, but he never had an heir, and in his old age, he actually had a queen, he was a person who practiced qi, and he had his own way of discerning, and the fat woman was pregnant with a male fetus.

The joy of the old man diluted his hatred for Wu Zhongyuan, and he enthusiastically invited the two into the main hall, instructed his subordinates to clean up the banquet, and then brought the cook out to meet the two.

As the saying goes, mothers are more expensive than children, and the cook was originally just a prop for Wu Zhongyuan to punish Dong Yunju, and she was not less angry after getting married, but since she was pregnant and her status soared, Dong Yunju was kind to her and spoiled.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't call for the cook's mother, but just quietly perceived it and knew that she was pregnant, and after becoming a jade void, her senses were not ordinary keen, although she couldn't sense everything, but she was already able to perceive everything.

The cook retreated, and the banquet was not yet served, Wu Zhongyuan took the opportunity to inquire about the situation, but did not say what he meant, but just asked if there was a leader surnamed Zhou in Taipingzhai.

There are two leaders surnamed Zhou in Taipingzhai, one is called Zhou Wu, who is in his thirties, and the other is called Zhou Qin, the former is a crimson aura, and the latter is a light blue aura.

The incident of changing the Qi Replenishing Pill from Goat Valley happened fifteen years ago, and this thirty-year-old is definitely not, but it is possible for this one in his fifties.

At the behest of Wu Zhongyuan, Dong Yunju sent someone to call the man named Zhou Qin.

Zhou Qin didn't know why Wu Zhongyuan wanted to see him, he trembled, walked on thin ice, bowed his head nervously after saluting, and waited for Wu Zhongyuan to show him.

Wu Zhongyuan didn't ask immediately, but was thinking about how to ask, he didn't believe Dong Yunju, but even if he kicked Dong Yunju out and asked Zhou Qin alone, Dong Yunju would ask Zhou Qin what he and Wan Shanhong had asked afterwards, and if he wanted to completely block the news, he could only kill Zhou Qin after the questioning, which was a bit too much.

Coercion is a very nihilistic feeling, but this feeling does exist, coercion mainly comes from both ability and status, the greater the ability, the higher the status, the greater the coercion, and there is no need to deliberately pretend to be serious with a straight face, even if a person in a high position is smiling and talking, coercion will exist. Even if the people in the market bared their teeth and pretended to be fierce, others would not be afraid.

Seeing that Wu Zhongyuan did not speak for a long time, Zhou Qin was nervous and afraid, at first he was trembling, and then he became trembling.

After groaning, Wu Zhongyuan decided to question Dong Yunju in front of him, so as to involve Dong Yunju, and let Dong Yunju know that few people knew about this matter, and if the news leaked afterwards, it would be the news that Taipingzhai had leaked.

"Zhou Qin, how old are you this year?" Wu Zhongyuan asked casually, when the Yellow Emperor has the advantage of being the Yellow Emperor, he can call anyone by his name without honorific titles.

"Back to the Yellow Emperor, the younger one is twenty out of fifty this year. Zhou Qin's language was vibrato.

"Have you ever taken a Qi Tonifying Pill?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

Zhou Qin didn't dare to raise his head, "I've taken it a few times." ”

"Fifteen years ago, did you ever exchange for a Qi Replenishing Pill from Goat Valley?" Wu Zhongyuan asked calmly.

"I changed it, and I exchanged twenty catties of bronze for two. Zhou Qin replied.

"Do you know the person who sells the Qi Replenishing Pill?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

Zhou Qin didn't dare to hide it, and hurriedly replied, "I recognize, I recognize, it's Huang Youdao of the snake clan." ”

"Huang Youdao is the man who spoke in a very nasal voice?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

"Yes, yes, yes, Huang Youdao has a problem with his nose and can't speak very clearly. Zhou Qin nodded repeatedly.

"What did you do with those two Qi Replenishing Pills?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

"Swallowed. Zhou Qin replied.

"What is the difference between those two Qi Replenishing Pills and ordinary Qi Replenishing Pills?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"Start...... The onset of action is very fast, and the aura contained in it is even more ...... More and more refined. Due to excessive tension, Zhou Qin's teeth chattered uncontrollably.

Wu Zhongyuan nodded and asked again, "Is Huang Youdao still alive now?"

Zhou Qin shook his head again and again, "I don't know, the little one hasn't seen it for a long time." ”

"When was the last time you saw it?" Wu Zhongyuan asked again.

Zhou Qin tried hard to recall, "It's been many years, when there is, when there are seven or eight years." ”

Wu Zhongyuan didn't ask again, he didn't have great hopes when he came to Taipingzhai, Zhou Qin is a person who is easy to change the qi tonic pill, and the situation he knows must be very effective, if he wants to find Mixed Yuan Ding, he must start from Huang Youdao, but this Huang Youdao should be with Hu Laosan all the way, they are all second-rate, even if they are still alive, it is unlikely that they will stay in the snake clan.

"The stakes are high, and we don't have to say that we know about our conversation. Wu Zhongyuan admonished.

Zhou Qin nodded again and again, and agreed.

"Alright, you step down ......"

Without waiting for Wu Zhongyuan to finish speaking, Wan Shanhong asked from the side, "Zhou Qin, in addition to the Qi Replenishing Pill, what else did Huang Youdao sell in Goat Valley?"

Zhou Qin glanced at Wan Shanhong when he heard this, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, the little one is not familiar with Huang Youdao, and he doesn't always go to Goat Valley." ”

Wan Shanhong didn't ask again.

But Wu Zhongyuan noticed that Zhou Qin's eyes were wandering, and said calmly, "The reason why people dare to lie to others is because they think they are smarter than the other party, do you think you are smart, or are we smart?"

Hearing Wu Zhongyuan's words, Zhou Qin was frightened, but he was a thief, unproductive, and bluntly looped, "Oh, oh, oh, I remembered, the last time I saw him, he got a treasure, and he was secretly looking for a buyer, waiting for the price to sell." ”

"What is it?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"Immortal water. Zhou Qin said.

"Immortal water?" Wu Zhongyuan frowned slightly, he was a little familiar with this name, as if he had heard it somewhere.

"What kind of thing is that immortal water?" asked Dong Yunju curiously.

"I don't know. Zhou Qin shook his head.

Dong Yunju was not satisfied with Zhou Qin's answer, but Wu Zhongyuan and Wan Shanhong were present, and it was inconvenient for him to have a seizure.

"Lord Dongzhai, we still have important things to do, so let's go. Wu Zhongyuan got up and left his seat.

"The banquet has ......"

"I understand it, he will come back to bother him when he is free," Wu Zhongyuan said, "We are looking for a very important thing, and don't talk about today's things to outsiders." ”

Dong Yunju nodded and agreed, and stayed again, but Wu Zhongyuan insisted on leaving.

Although Wan Shanhong didn't know why Wu Zhongyuan was in a hurry to leave, he knew that he must have his own reasons for doing so, so he also got up and sat down and went out with Wu Zhongyuan.

Dong Yunju warmly retained, and seeing that Wu Zhongyuan had made up his mind, he could only send him out in person and watch the two of them take off in the giant eagle and leave.

When she reached a high place, Wan Shanhong turned her head to look at Wu Zhongyuan, "What's wrong?"

"I know where the Mixed Yuan Ding is hidden......"
