Chapter 54: A Thousand Nights
I took the hairpin from Lan Yan'er's hand, inserted the thin end of the hairpin into the keyhole, twisted it gently, only to hear the "click", the lock opened in response, and then I pulled out the hairpin and returned it to Lan Yan'er, opened the door, and made a gesture of inviting in.
Lan Yan'er saw that I opened the lock so easily, and said in disbelief: "I really didn't expect that a famous and decent disciple would be so good at picking locks, but the people of our Ghost Shadow Sect are ashamed of themselves, where did you learn this unique skill, it won't be taught by your teacher, haha." ”
Where did Lan Yan'er stop laughing after she finished speaking, I quickly covered her mouth to prevent her from laughing, and didn't lead the people from the Blood Poison Sect over for a while.
Seeing me covering her mouth with my hand, Lan Yan'er was stunned, standing there in a daze, her eyes widened at the boss, and after a while, her face turned red, and she hurriedly opened my hand.
I suddenly reacted, in this other world, it was similar to the ancient times on the earth, and it was a bit rude for me to pay attention to whether men and women were intimate or not.
Knowing that I was rude, I hurriedly explained: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, I'm afraid that it won't be good for you to laugh too loudly and attract the people of the Blood Poison Sect, so I can only cover your mouth when I am in a hurry......"
Before I could finish speaking, Lan Yan'er interrupted me and said, "Okay, for your sake, I'll forgive you this time, but if there is a next time, your hands won't be yours." ”
Hearing Lan Yan'er say this, I hurriedly put my hands behind my back and said, "No, there will definitely be no next time, let's not stand here, hurry up and get the medicine and leave, so as not to cause more trouble." ”
After entering the room, we saw that a medicine shelf in the room was full of smallpox pollen, and there were two medicine shelves next to it, and some unknown herbs were placed on it, because we mainly came for smallpox pollen, and we were not interested in the herbs on the medicine shelves next to us, so we didn't bother to look carefully at what kind of medicine was on the two medicine shelves, and walked directly towards the medicine shelf where smallpox pollen was placed.
Lan Yan'er directly took out a pocket, and happily filled it with smallpox pollen, I was naturally not far behind, I was much faster than her, walked to the medicine shelf and waved my hand with the space ring on the herb, and most of the smallpox pollen was received by me into the space ring.
Lan Yan'er saw that I had filled most of the day's pollen with a wave of my hand, and said a little unhappily: "No, after you go out, you must give me some smallpox pollen in your space ring, I have too little in this pocket, and it's too troublesome." ”
After saying that, he looked at me with a blank look, and I was embarrassed, so I had to nod my head and agree, since this is the case, I am no longer polite, and directly waved my hand again, and put all the smallpox pollen into it.
Looking at the empty medicine shelf, he was about to leave, when he suddenly heard an old man's voice behind him: "You guys are quite polite, you directly stole all the smallpox pollen we bought with great difficulty without saying hello, what do you say I should do with you?"
"Heh, it's really shameless, you're embarrassed to say that you bought these smallpox pollen, I'm afraid you snatched it directly from someone else, right?" Lan Yan'er said with a sneer.
The old man's face became gloomy, and he said with a little displeasure: "These days, whether the pollen is bought or robbed, what does it have to do with you?
Seeing that the atmosphere is extremely tense, it is possible to make a move at any time, we are blocked in the room by them, and we are definitely not an opponent if we really make a move, they are overwhelming, so we will delay for a while and think of a way.
Afraid that Lan Yan'er and the old man would soon fight if they confronted each other, I hurriedly pulled Lan Yan'er behind me and said with a smile: "No, don't get me wrong, we have long heard of the great name of the Blood Poison Sect, how dare we go to your territory to make trouble, it's just that we really need smallpox pollen urgently, so we came to get it without permission, I hope the seniors don't have the same knowledge as us." ”
The old man smiled and said, "You kid is quite good at talking, but you just want to settle this matter with just a few words, I'm afraid your wishful thinking is wrong." ”
The old man paused and sneered: "Heh, if you obediently put all the smallpox pollen on the medicine shelf now, I can leave you a whole corpse, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless." ”
After speaking, the old man motioned to his subordinates to do it, and I hurriedly stretched out my hand to stop it: "Listen, don't rush to fight first, we have something to say, it's a big deal that we spend money to buy your talent powder, and you can double the price." ”
"Hehe, boy, are you funny here? I haven't figured out the situation yet, our Blood Poison Sect will care about your little money, don't talk nonsense, quickly take out the smallpox pollen and put it back on the medicine shelf, lest we do it." The old man said impatiently.
Seeing that I couldn't delay time, I hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "Since the two of us will definitely die here today, I wonder if the seniors can answer me a question?"
Before the old man could speak, Lan Yan'er spoke first and whispered: "Why are you talking so much nonsense with him, if we really fight, we don't have any hope of escaping." ”
I didn't answer Lan Yan'er's words, I just pulled her hand, afraid that she would be impulsive and move directly, which would only make the situation more and more dangerous.
Then I continued to look at the old man, waiting for his reply, and after a while, the old man nodded and said, "Okay, just fulfill one of your wishes before you die, and if you have any questions, ask them quickly." ”
Seeing that he agreed, I asked the doubts in my heart and said, "What are you going to do when you collect all the smallpox pollen in the vicinity?"
"I thought you were going to ask something, it turned out to be this, to be honest, I don't know why I collected these smallpox pollen, I just acted on the orders of the sect master. The old man paused.
I thought he was going to do it directly, his hand was on the sword behind his back, and when he was about to draw his sword to meet the enemy, suddenly the old man opened his mouth and continued: " However, I heard from a few other old immortals, it seems that the suzerain got a secret book, which records the preparation methods and antidote methods of various poisons, there is a poison called a thousand nights, it is said that this poison is colorless and tasteless, it is difficult to be discovered, people who plant this poison will continue to sleep until they die, and the only one who can cure this poison is smallpox pollen, the suzerain let us collect all the smallpox pollen, probably because we are afraid that the enemy will use the antidote for a thousand nights. ”
Originally, when Lan Yan'er told me, I thought it was just her speculation, but I didn't expect that the evil factions were so disunited, fighting openly and secretly everywhere, but it's right to think about it, as long as there are people, there will be fights.
After the old man finished speaking, he looked at me and said, "Okay, I have already told you what you want to know, and now you can go on the road with peace of mind." ”
As soon as the words fell, the old man waved his hand, and the disciples around him drew their swords and walked towards me, looking at the expressions on their faces, it was as if Lan Yan'er and I were already the meat on their board, and it was impossible for them to escape.
Just as they were about to come up to us, their expressions suddenly became very confused, and then they all threw down their weapons, covering their heads with painful expressions, and the old man saw that they had suddenly become like this, and asked in disbelief: "What did you do to them, why did they suddenly become like this?"
I smiled and said with a look of fearlessness, "Do you want to know? I'll tell you when you come here?"
The old man took a step forward, then suddenly stopped, and said, "What a cunning boy, I almost fell for you, and if I really walked over, I would become like them." The old man won't be fooled by you. ”
Hey, it's a pity, just when he answered my question, while he wasn't paying attention, I secretly laid a gossip phantom array around him, the purpose was to tie up the old man, and then Lan Yan'er and I joined forces to defeat his disciples, and then I could escape, but I didn't expect to let his disciples get into the gossip phantom array for him.
Seeing this situation, Lan Yan'er also understood what was going on, and said with a little pity: "Although it's a pity, it's always good to have no people in the way, and it's not impossible for the two of us to deal with this old man." ”
"Hmph, you two wouldn't have been able to defeat me without this waste, but ......" The old man suddenly stopped talking.
Lan Yan'er also asked impatiently, "But what? ”
"Hehe, if this boy can teach me the kung fu that just turned my subordinates into what they are now, I might consider letting you go. After the old man finished speaking, he looked at me directly, as if he had seen a rare treasure, and his eyes were about to glow green.
Heh, it turns out that this old man has taken a fancy to my Bagua Phantom Array, but with the style of the Blood Poison Sect, even if I teach him the Bagua Phantom Array, he will kill us.
After thinking about this, I didn't bother to continue talking nonsense with him, so I directly drew my sword and rushed towards him, Lan Yan'er saw that I suddenly started to move, and hurriedly drew my sword and followed.
The old man thought that I was sure that I agreed to his request, but I didn't expect that I would suddenly make a move, but with his cultivation, although we were the first to start, we didn't take half of the advantage, and said without hurry while beating the old man:" Boy, don't toast or eat and drink, you obediently agree to my request now, so as not to suffer from skin and flesh for a while, otherwise you will be subdued by me after a while, but there will be a lot of suffering to suffer, oh, I forgot to tell you, our Blood Poison Sect has a lot of torturous poisons, and it will not be fatal after eating, but it will make you very painful, and you will definitely not be able to stand the taste of wanting to live and not wanting to die, so it is better to obediently agree to my request now. ”
Annoyed by what the old man said, I said a little impatiently: "Heh, I agreed to your request, will you really let us go?" ”
