Chapter 314: Cooperation
Do I really remember what they said?
What Xiao Qian'er said is: Look at the appearance, and the appearance can be considered.
Xinyan said: Shot him. Save his face.
Ye Liuguang didn't participate, she said: There is no poison in the world that she can't unravel. Even if you can't solve it, you can delay the time of the attack.
Ding Duoer seems to say: she can help find someone and pay money, but she will not use herself as an antidote.
Little Jelly Bean said: Except for Brother Fox, no one else can do it.
What did the peach demon say? The peach demon said: She should be able to make a move, and then it will be as if nothing happened.
That's what Peach Demon said at the time.
If this happens, what do I do, and what do I do if it doesn't happen?
I thought about it for a long time before saying, "The peach demon will definitely save me." But I don't know how I should face her. That's probably it. ”
Hongmei laughed and said: "I thought you were an honest person, but I didn't expect that you would not admit it when you put on your pants." ”
I replied calmly: "Many people, before they experience life and death, feel that they are not afraid of death. But when death came, he was scared to pee his pants. I can't really guarantee what happened without what really happened, what would have happened to me?"
Red Charm smiled: "Then when you woke up in the room and found a peach demon lying next to you, you didn't think about these things at all?"
I replied, "If she were a peach demon, as long as I could still stand up, I would definitely fight with others." You don't have to doubt that. ”
"You're guts!" Red Mei raised her thumb slightly: "If it were me, I wouldn't dare to put a spy by my side." With your guts, I can work with you. ”
I looked at each other and said, "What do you want me to do?"
"Grab the inn!" said Hongmei: "The Jiangbei Inn has not had a real shopkeeper since a long time ago. Whoever grabs the position of the shopkeeper will have the final say in the inn. All I want is the shopkeeper. You help me. ”
I looked at the red charm: "There is no shopkeeper in the inn. Is there a boss then?"
In ancient times, the relationship between the proprietor and the shopkeeper was similar to the relationship between the boss and the manager today. The shopkeeper has a certain degree of autonomy, but the owner has the final say in major matters. At the same time, there is also a subtle game between the proprietor and the shopkeeper.
In a sense, the inn is probably also a river and lake.
Hongmei shook her head and said, "No one has ever seen the owner of the inn, and the boss doesn't seem to mind who is in charge of the inn." As long as the inn is still around, he won't show up. ”
I looked at the Red Charm, "What if someone wants to take the inn for themselves?"
Red Charm shook her head again: "No one in this world can occupy the inn. Let's put it this way! In ancient times, if the owner dared to hand over the inn to the shopkeeper, there must be a way to restrict the other party. There have been countless things for the shopkeeper to seek the owner's property throughout the ages, but how many have really succeeded? The shopkeeper of the Jiangbei Inn does not know how much he has changed, but no one has been able to become the boss. ”
Hongmei said: "You should have seen the old cripple, right? It's an old lady with half a head." Did he tell you that you have to hide in a room, and only the room is the safest?"
"Yes!" I nodded.
Red Charm continued, "Actually, she's right. In the Jiangbei Inn, whoever is the shopkeeper has the greatest right to speak. Why did the shopkeeper dare to be a bully? It was because he was the shopkeeper's dog. What he did to that fake peach demon didn't happen in the inn. Think about it, once you become the shopkeeper, will you become the soil emperor of the Jiangbei Inn?"
Hongmei said: "Do you think that the pattern of people in the inn is too low? A pair of eyes will only stare at such a big place as the inn? What I can tell you is that we can't do without the Jiangbei Inn, and only here can we live." Leaving the inn is a dead end. ”
I looked at each other, "Does it make sense to live like this?"
Red Charm looked up into the distance: "Each of us has something to hold onto. To be alive is to wait, waiting for the day when we have a chance to leave the inn, although it is only a hope, but for us it is a reason to live. ”
I nodded slightly, "I see." Now the inn is in the hands of whom. ”
"I don't know!" Red Charm shook her head, "I didn't lie to you. It was precisely because I didn't know whose hands the inn was in that I felt fear. The other party is even more terrible than the previous shopkeeper! The previous shopkeeper made a lot of things in order to control the inn. For example, the monster 'Black' guarding the corridor, such as letting the inn be separated every once in a while. These were the means by which the previous shopkeeper controlled the inn. We couldn't get out of the room, and we couldn't meet each other, so we couldn't snatch his place. ”
I said in a deep voice, "Won't any of you resist?"
"Yes!" "Yes," Hong Mei said: "After the previous shopkeeper took over the inn, we resisted once, and that time, someone in the inn gathered more than thirty masters. tried to kill the shopkeeper, but all of them died in the inn, but the leader did not die. The previous shopkeeper skinned him. Shut him up in a room. Every once in a while, his voice can be heard, and the previous treasurer wants to use him to intimidate us. Let us know that revolt does not end well. ”
I was silent for a moment before I said, "Then have you ever thought that the person who was skinned is the previous treasurer?"
"I've thought about it!" said Hongmei, "I'm not the only one who thinks like this in the inn. But no one can confirm this result. Because we can't get out of the gate. ”
I asked rhetorically, "What is Guan Hong's role in the inn?"
Hongmei said: "Guan Hong is the apprentice of the previous shopkeeper, I only know this." I'm guessing about the rest, but I'm not sure. If you think you can cooperate with me, we can have a good talk between us. ”
I spread my hands outward, "I really want to work with you." But look at my current state, is it suitable to cooperate with you?"
"It's really miserable!" Red Charm smiled, "However, if I can get you in, there will be a way to keep you alive." There are three kinds of poison in you. One is corpse poison, one is pestilence, and one is a potion that catalyzes pestilence. ”
Plague poison is also a secret method in the art path. Many people know that Miao Jiang is out of Gu, and Tang Sect uses poison. However, few people know that there is a plague vein in the art path. Plague, to put it simply, is plague. A person who makes good use of the plague can make the opponent suddenly sick, and even if the opponent finds a famous doctor, the opponent will only think that he is sick, not poisoned. They treat patients according to their symptoms, but ignore the small amount of toxins in the human body. He continued to use the drug until he died, and he didn't know that the patient was actually plotted.
The plague vein used to be rampant in the magic path, and later with the emergence of various antibiotics, the plague vein has completely declined.
I didn't expect someone to do something to me.
I looked at the red charm: "Do you have a way to detoxify?"
"No!" said the red charm, "but the man who was skinned has a way to save you." It's up to you to find him. ”
I looked at myself, "What can I do with the way I am?"
Red Charm took out a pill from the dresser: "This is also a poison." After you eat it, you can only live for two hours, and in these two hours, you find the skinner, and you have the hope of living. If you can't find the other person, then you will definitely die. Do you dare to try?"
I reached out and took the pill and looked at it for a long time, and I also estimated the probability of victory or defeat in my heart. But no matter how I calculate, I have a better chance of death.
I took the pill and said, "Since it's a deal, I'll give a life." What do you give me in return?"
"No return!" Red Charm shook her head and said, "You must have heard the phrase 'man is a sword, I am a fish', right? Do you think a diner will talk to him about his ingredients in return? I don't know why you want to enter the inn, but one thing I know very well is that no one who enters the inn wants to die." Because they still have things to do. You too. ”
Red Mei looked down at me and said, "Actually, you're gambling on more than just your own life. And you haven't been able to fulfill your wishes. Isn't that enough?"
"You have a point!" I looked at the red charm and said, "This time, there are no less than a hundred people entering the inn. The fact that you didn't work with any of them shows that I have something irreplaceable. I could decline your deal, could I?"
"Clever!" Instead of getting angry, Red Charm gave a thumbs up, "Say it, what do you want?" ”
I said in a deep voice, "I have a few friends who are lost in the inn. If I survive, I naturally don't need your help. If I'm dead, I hope you'll find a way to let them go. Just let it go. ”
Hongmei looked at me for a long time: "If that's the case, one pill is definitely not enough." You'll have to eat three. Three pills in your stomach, and you will definitely die. However, you can increase your combat power tenfold in a short period of time. Remember, after you take the pill, you can't go to the inn for revenge, you can only go to the skinner. The most you can do is make a hole in the inn's wall. So I can release them, do you want to do it?"
Before I could speak, the red charm said in a deep voice: "After I give you the pill, you have to swear blood, not by yourself, but by your friends." And, I'm not going to swear by you. You can only bet on my character? I can give you time to think about it. ”
I stretched out my hand and said, "Take the medicine!"
Hongmei was surprised: "You don't think about it anymore?"
I shook my head and said, "Nothing to think about. You just have to take the medicine. ”
Red Charm slowly walked to the table: "Why is there no shortage of fools in this world? Why do I meet all the shrewd people? I began to envy those friends of yours." ”
As she spoke, the Red Charm handed me three pills.
