Chapter 24: The Past
After listening to my statement of the source of my grievances with Pu Sheng, the man laughed sadly and said, "This is the truth of heaven, and I finally have a chance to take revenge." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info" After listening to this, I was puzzled, and asked carefully: "You also have a grudge against Pusheng?" β
The man looked up at the sky, uh~~, no, it was the ceiling, and said: "I don't have a petty grudge with him, I was confused at the beginning, why didn't I kill him." β
I was blinded by this, and he continued: "I'm a poisoner now, you probably can't tell that I'm over 70 years old. β
I was even more stupid after listening to his words, although he looked old, but whether it was the way he walked or the ease of his demeanor, I would not have seen that he was so old.
He smiled self-deprecatingly and continued: "I'm sure you've never heard of the term poisoner, because as far as I know, I should be the first poisoner, and I am the ancestor who used poison and made poison. "I heard him pretend that I didn't believe a word, return to my grandfather, blow it. Of course, I didn't dare to say it anyway, so I could only pander, "Wow, that's amazing." β
He glanced at me with contempt, and then said: "I used to be a member of the royal family of Rhodok, and then Rhodok and Swadia went to war, and most of the Rhodok royals were just eating and waiting for death, uh~~, although I am too, so in less than ten days after the war, we lost 15 castles, our king Laru was furious, and basically killed the royals when he saw them, so we had to escape from Rhodok, and many people became traitors all of a sudden, and Rhodok's national power declined, Later, the Ebony Knights of Uxhall besieged Aaron, the capital of Rhodok, and King LaRue committed suicide in the basement, and the kingdom of Rhodok was basically destroyed at that time, with only a small number of guerrillas engaged in roundabout battles with Swadia, and I was 43 years old at the time, and I did not want to lead troops to fight anymore, so I began to engage in business. β
He turned, and continued: "I came to Dehrim for the first time, and I thought that with my assets I could build the most luxurious tavern in the city, and then I did, but it did not belong to me, I met Pu Sheng in a deplorable village, he was dirty, and he was begging on the side of the road with her mother, and I saw that he was pitiful, so I took him in, and then I took him wherever I went, and when I arrived at Deherim, my tavern grew and grew, Many troubles have made me understand the way of running a tavern, of course, Pusheng was very dependent on me at that time, so he also knows the tavern well, I originally thought that he would not betray me no matter what, but I was still too naΓ―ve. β
He hid his pain, tried to look normal, and continued: "After 20 years like this, the tavern has grown considerably, and I was also a popular figure in the city at that time, and in the back streets, no one dared to oppose me, but the salted fish of the Rhodok Kingdom would actually turn over, and after twenty years, Rhodok actually founded the country again, and snatched all the castles from Svadia, when Svadia was at war with Nord and Virgia, and naturally could not take care of the rebellion in the West. β
Hearing this, I was secretly surprised in my heart, wasn't that when I was born.
His words did not stop, and continued: "Because of the rebellion of Rhodok, the relationship between Svadia and Rhodok was quite tense at that time, although it is also tense now, but it is definitely not as serious as it was then, the entire Rhodok people in Swadia cannot operate, and no factory is allowed to recruit Rhodoks, I was worried at that time, the tavern was also in a difficult period at that time, the shortage was serious, and it was basically in a state of paralysis, at that time Pusheng asked to set up a casino and collect poppies, I refused without hesitation, but he was very stubborn, Almost every time I met, I would have a fight, and there was a very loyal old man next to me who once asked me to get rid of him, and I refused, "He will never betray me." "I told the old man this, and fired his squid, and then I didn't expect Pusheng to really betray me, he handed over the certificate that I was a Rhodoc, and soon, I was revoked as the tavern owner, but the tavern was not confiscated, but was taken over by Pusheng, he looked like a good man at that time, arranged a place for me to live, and provided me with three meals a day, I let go of the fact that he betrayed me, and also thought that he would run the tavern very well, but it wasn't until 10 years later, when I finished eating, suddenly my stomach churned violently, and the pain was incomparable, I just found out that the food has always contained a small amount of anhydrous arsenic acid (commonly known as arsenic), he has harmed me like this or still wants to kill me, I was extremely angry at that time, delirious fled from the town, I don't know why I didn't die for ten years, but my hands have become like this, and then I hid in this place, studying poisons, practicing poison skills, and now it has been 7 years, and at the beginning the fancy you saw was just a small result of my 7 years of cultivation. β
Little Syvi was already sitting on the ground, with an expression of listening to the story, Farley had forgotten her current situation, and looked like she was reminiscing, only I was still awake now, he almost castrated me, and it wasn't them.
I asked him again: "Since we both have a grudge against Pu Sheng, that is, people on the same front, why don't you let me go and kill Pu Sheng together." He turned his head with a smile and said, "I don't want to go out at my age, so I will give you two bottles of poisoned water that I developed, which may help you a little, but you have to promise me one thing, bring Pu Sheng's head to me." The moment I listened, I nodded, patted my chest and abdomen and said, "Absolutely no problem." β
He turned around, went to the test table, guided a few test tubes, poured a dark black liquid into a bottle, poured two bottles in a row, and brought it to me.
I took it carefully, held it up again, and looked at it, it was made of camphor wood, and I couldn't see it inside, and I asked him, "Can I open it and smell it?" β
He laughed and said, "Don't say sniff. After that, he picked up a test tube, poured water directly on his arm, and then said: "This only has an effect when you drink it from your mouth, and everything else is fine, but remember, there is no antidote to this." β
Then he loosened our ties and sent us out, and when I got out, I took a deep breath of fresh air, and then put my hand around Farley's neck, and frightened, "You don't think I've forgotten you, ah~~, boy." β
Farley's face was red from being strangled by me, and he spit out a few words with difficulty, until Xiao Siwei shouted angrily at me: "Okay~~, it's time to go." I reluctantly let go of my hand.
I walked in front, and little Siwei quietly walked next to Farley again, and whispered: "I saved you this time, six sheep intestines, no discussion." I saw that no one was following behind, and when I turned around, I saw little Siwei leaning next to Farley again, and couldn't help yelling: "Farley, I think you still have to fight." β
