Chapter 311: Chronic Poison
For a stranger he had never met, Zhao Si naturally couldn't trust him.
Especially in a chaotic place like Rose City, if you are too innocent, I am afraid that you will still be helping people to make money if you are sold.
Even if he believed, he was unwilling to give his life and Qingxi's life to a stranger.
After entering the secret passage of this store, who knows whether it is good or bad?
He glanced at Qingxi beside him, and both of them saw the same answer in each other's eyes.
"There's no need to escape, we came to Rose City for something important, and it is impossible to give up easily because of a Chen Rin. Zhao Si glanced at the gray-clothed servant and said lightly.
The gray-clothed servant's eyes flashed, and he was not angry, but asked casually: "Oh, what is the important matter of the two guests? Liu has been entrenched in this rose city for many years, and he may be able to help the two guests." ”
Before he finished speaking, he was unceremoniously interrupted by Zhao Si: "You can't help, Qingxi, let's go." ”
Qingxi nodded, and walked behind him towards the door.
After walking a few steps, Zhao Si suddenly reversed and said: "Although we are not afraid of Chen Rin, we don't want to make extraneous branches, so we hope that the store can keep its mouth shut, and don't tell what you see, there will be a good reward." ”
The gray-clothed servant nodded, and said in a solemn tone: "Don't worry, young man, Liu Mou's life is the heaviest promise, and he will never leak this matter, this is a gentleman's promise." ”
"Okay, thank you!"
Zhao Si's hand flashed, and an extra crystal nuclear jade appeared, and he threw it to the gray-clothed servant, and said: "This thing is called nuclear jade, it is the product of energy crystallization and convergence, and it is very powerful, and the use method is simple and efficient, just use your mind to urge it." ”
"That's what I pay off. He glanced meaningfully at the gray-clothed servant, took Qingxi's hand and turned around and walked out of the store.
The gray-clothed servant watched him leave holding hands with the beauty, and a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
There was a moment of silence.
He threw away the nuclear jade in his hand, the corners of his mouth showed a playful look, and he called inside: "Stone." ”
A tall stone demon with a hideous face walked out of the room and said, "Master." ”
The gray-clothed servant pointed to Chen Rin's corpse on the ground and said, "Take off the token from his waist and go to the Marquis's Mansion to report that Chen Rin was killed by a foreigner, let them take care of it themselves." ”
As he spoke, he licked his lips and said, "I believe that the lord won't give a reward, right?"
The stone demon's eyes blinked, and he was a little confused: "Master, didn't you say that you wouldn't leak this matter, and that this is a gentleman's promise......
He was also watching quietly behind the door, and everything in the store was seen by him and he knew it.
In fact, there were more such angry and murderous things in Rose City, and it was not unusual, and he had seen a lot of them, so he didn't exclaim.
The gray-clothed servant glared at the stone demon fiercely, and said, "I said, this is a gentleman's promise, but am I a gentleman?"
The stone demon subconsciously shook his head and said, "You're not... Oh no, no, no, you are, you are one of the few true gentlemen in the world. ”
The gray-clothed servant flew up and kicked him on the buttocks, saying, "Don't insult me, Lao Tzu is a villain." ”
"Hurry up and report to receive the reward!"
The stone demon nodded and said, "Okay." ”
He leaned over and ripped the token from Chen Rin's body, stuffed it into his arms, and strode out.
But at this moment.
The nuclear jade that was originally pinched in the hands of the gray-clothed servant suddenly seemed to be ignited by something, and the energy inside it was like the sea, turbulent and undulating.
Looks like it's going to explode!
The gray-clad servant instantly felt a threat of death.
He was horrified in his heart, and almost subconsciously threw the nuclear jade out, but as soon as he flew out a few meters, an earth-shattering sound permeated the whole city.
A huge energy fluctuation was carrying out the baptism of death, and a black and white mushroom cloud slowly rose from the sky above Rose City, and then quickly spread into the distance.
Bang –
The nuclear jade exploded.
The gray-clothed servants and stone demons who were close at hand were directly evaporated in this glorious heavenly might, even though they tried their best to use their own defensive methods.
At the same time, the force of the explosion in the city affected nearly 1,000 houses and shops.
For a time, there were countless casualties.
Overhead, a huge mushroom cloud obscured the light of the Blood Moon, plunging Rose City into darkness.
In the alley far away, Zhao Si held Qingxi's hand, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
A gentleman's promise?
He doesn't believe it, he only believes in the nuclear jade in his hand.
If the gray-clothed servant had no intention of leaking the secret, then the nuclear jade would save his life at a critical moment and become a real reward!
But if he breaks the promise of the "gentleman", then the nuclear jade will become a deadly weapon and send him on his way.
That's when it happened.
Suddenly, an old man in a green robe jumped into the air and soared into the sky, the huge will of the great shore condensed in him, his expression was solemn, and the red glow filled the sky.
With a flick of his hand, the mushroom cloud above Rose City was dispelled, and the light of the blood moon fell again, draping the war-torn city in a blood-colored veil.
After dispelling the mushroom cloud, the old man's figure flashed in the air, and then disappeared.
Immediately after, the hurried footsteps and shouts of the soldiers in Rose City: "Quick, search for the abuser, don't let him run." ”
Hearing the voice, Zhao Si's eyes flashed, his face changed faintly, and he became the appearance of a man from the Demon Fear Clan, and a white light gauze hat appeared on Qingxi's head, covering up his beautiful face as bright as the autumn moon.
"Let's go, go to the City Lord's Mansion. ”
......
The Lord's Mansion of Rose City.
Located in the middle of the island on the west coast, this castle lord's mansion is boxy in appearance, made of unknown white rocks, and the height is not high, and it is the most conspicuous place on the entire island.
When the explosion just happened, because of the big movement, it almost immediately alarmed the City Lord's Mansion.
However, due to the existence of the Forbidden Spirit Array in this central area of the island, the power of the explosion could not be spread here, and it was simply two worlds from the mourning at the foot of the mountain.
Two streets away from the City Lord's Mansion, there is a three-story inn with an exquisite design.
At this time, the street was full of onlookers, all looking up at the huge mushroom cloud in the sky and the old man in the green robe who suddenly appeared, and at the same time discussing the origin of the mushroom cloud and the old man with great interest.
Their attitudes are surprisingly consistent, and they don't care about themselves.
Everyone's eyes, including the innkeeper and Xiao Er, were attracted by the mushroom cloud, and no one noticed that a woman in black with a hot body and a hat on her head sneaked into the inn.
The inn's Tianzi No. 3 room.
Zhao Si and Qingxi were sitting opposite each other on the square table in the room, Zhao Si quietly drank tea, while Qingxi took small sips of food.
Although her cultivation has been freed from the low-level appetite for food, delicious meals can always make people feel happy.
Zhao Si didn't eat, just sat opposite and looked at her quietly.
As he ate, Qingxi's cheeks turned red visibly.
"Your Excellency, Your Majesty......"
"Huh?"
"Adults eat too, and eating alone makes Qingxi embarrassed. ”
"Oh, good. ”
Zhao Si picked up his chopsticks and was about to bury his head in a silent meal, but the door of the room was pushed open, and a black figure flashed in quickly, and closed the door tightly.
"Who?"
Zhao Si's eyes flashed, and he stood up directly.
At this time, the person who came took off the hat on his head, revealing a delicate face that was suitable for hatred and joy, with stars and moon as eyes, containing autumn water, Qiong's nose and red lips, a lovely beauty.
The beauty bit her red lips lightly, saluted Qingxi Yingying, and said very respectfully: "Sister Qingxi." ”
Qingxi also stood up at this time, pointed to the beauty and introduced, "My lord, this is Qinglin, the sister of our clan. ”
After Qingxi's introduction, Zhao Si pressed the vigilance in his heart and said gently: "Since you are Qingxi's sister, then sit down." ”
The three of them sat down as guests and hosts.
After Qingxi and Qinglin spoke, Zhao Si realized that the Qinglin in front of him was the help that Qingxi said.
The greatest helper in the assassination of the city lord.
She is the concubine of the city lord.
Well, no, it's better to say it's a concubine, it's better to say it's a slave girl. It's just that she was born beautiful and knows how to please men, so she is quite favored by the city lord, and her status is much higher than those female slaves in the city lord's mansion.
For example, she was free to enter and leave the City Lord's Mansion without having to do the chores that ordinary slave girls needed.
Like a canary in a cage, whenever the city lord is interested, he will gently apply rain and dew to pamper her.
With the grace of the city lord, the people in the mansion will naturally not embarrass her, so her situation is okay.
At least it's much better than those Meizu women who have fallen into the dust.
But even so, Qing Lin didn't have the slightest love for the city lord of Rose City, but hid an unforgettable ruthlessness.
As time passed, this hatred did not weaken, but the tide rose, only to one day drown her completely.
She was originally a person from the territory of the Demon Clan, and she was robbed from Jersey City by the border army of the Mind Eater Demon Clan, and there were many Meizu who were robbed with her.
Most of the men of the Meizu were killed, and the women of the Meizu were all raised as a gift to the big people of the Mind Eater Clan.
And Qing Lin, as the most beautiful of these snatched Meizu, was naturally dedicated by the border army to the city lord of Rose City, who had the highest status.
She already liked someone, a demon who served as a commander in the border army of the Hell Demon Clan.
In the battle between the Hell-Suppressing Demon and the Mind Eater, the Hell-Suppressing Demon Clan lost, her lover was killed, and she was sacrificed as a trophy to a bad old man who was over 100 years old.
Her arms couldn't twist her thighs, even if she was determined to die, she couldn't even die, and because of the threat of the Rose City Lord, she had to be forced to commit herself to him.
Every day, he has to be an enemy who hates him with a smile and clothes between the beds, and no one knows the pain in Qinglin's heart.
She always had the idea of revenge in her heart, but because there was too much difference between her strength and the Rose City Lord, and the lives of her family were all in her hands, she always threw a mouse bogey, and she didn't dare to rush it.
And now, she's almost done.
Although the Rose City Lord is in a high position, it is not because of his own strength, but because of his father.
His father is a demon lord of the Mind Eater Demon Clan, with great strength and murderous people, such a hero, but the son he gave birth to is mediocre in talent.
Even though he was one of the five royal clans, he enjoyed countless cultivation resources on weekdays, but the Rose City Lord was still only a fifth-order cultivator.
As a Mind Eater Demon who is over a hundred years old, this is already a waste of firewood, and it can be said that he has no cultivation talent.
Of course, his mind was not on cultivation.
Although this Rose City Lord is mediocre in cultivation, he is the first in the city in terms of lust.
He has almost no other hobbies in his life except playing with women.
The city lord's mansion has gathered countless beauties with different styles that he got from the five royal families of the underworld, the female slave girl of the Meizu clan, the female fox demon, the Jing clan, and even the five royal families.
His wife was born in the Silver Moon Demon Clan, beautiful and unbelievable, peerless, and has the title of the first beauty in Rose City.
Several of the wives were also from higher races.
There are those from the Mind Eater Clan's own family, and there are also those from the Tianlan Clan.
can get so many beautiful women with their own merits and enjoy the blessings of all people, completely relying on his father's strong strength.
Everyone else respects his father, fears his father, and asks for his father, which is why he can mix like a fish in water.
Of course, with so many beautiful wives and wives who can't cultivate, the sequelae of kidney deficiency are naturally inevitable.
In addition, his age has passed the 100-year-old mark, even if there is a panacea genius earth treasure to continue his life, but he can't stop the power of time.
Time is like a corrosive knife, causing the qi and blood in his body to decay, and the essence is often weak.
So many wives with different styles are waiting in line every day to be in love with him, but he is a little overwhelmed.
Just a few months ago, when he was lingering in Qinglin's room, Qinglin happened to take the opportunity to offer a pill that nourishes the kidneys and aphrodisiacs.
It is said that it is Meizu's ancient medical prescription, which can make the essence in a man's body form a continuous stream, and he no longer has to worry about poor performance.
The Rose City Lord was naturally moved when he heard this, and after a strict inspection by the medical officer of the palace to determine that the pill was not poisonous, the Rose City Lord sent someone to try it, and it really had a miraculous effect on that aspect, and he became stronger and stronger from then on.
As for Qing Lin, who offered the magic pill, he also became more and more favored, and even went to Qing Lin's room a lot more times with these days.
It's just that he doesn't know something.
Although this red pill has the effect of generating the essence and qi in the body, it is not completely harmless.
This is a chronic poison called "Lingshen Pill" in Meizu, and it is a almost lost elixir.
This medicine was originally used to hang the life, just like ginseng, which has the effect of rejuvenating people.
With the passage of time, the prescription was perfected little by little, and its effect also exceeded the effect of aphrodisiac.
It was only after the use of the drug that the doctors of Meizu discovered that the essence bred by this medicine was not transformed out of thin air, but by ingesting your spiritual qi into essence.
In layman's terms, although this medicine can make you flush in a short period of time, or even three or five years, and be as strong as a young man, the subsequent side effects are devastating.
It's squeezing your life force into essence.
After three or five years, the vitality is drained, and the person will die violently, and the cause of death will not even be seen.
It is precisely because the side effects of this "Lingshen Pill" are too great that Meizu finally banned the circulation of this elixir, and even the Danfang gradually disappeared and was not known to outsiders.
