Chapter 426: Poison Village (text)
On the outskirts of Qinuma, where the car passed, you could see some bamboo buildings made of bamboo, most of which were residential buildings, and there were very few shops here, because there were few tourists in Qinuma over the years, and the shops were of little use to the local residents. The local population still lives a traditional subsistence life, and the largest part of their income is the cultivation of a plant.
This plant is the poppy, and Qinuma is the largest producer of poppies in China, and it was originally famous for it, not because of its beautiful scenery.
Local gangsters also mainly process poppies into poison through guò, and then sell them to drug dealers across the country at high prices to make huge profits.
Therefore, the people who enter and leave the Qi Marsh are basically some people who are engaged in the drug business, and there are also a very small number of tourists, of course, there are some more rare botanists, zoologists and the like, because the primeval forest in the Qi Marsh is also a rich treasure for these people.
"Can we get out of the car?" Ye Tianzhi looked at the buildings passing by on both sides and the scattered local residents, turned his head and asked.
"Drive a little further." Poison Rose said expressionlessly.
Hearing this, the driver was a little embarrassed: "Two, you can go further and be in the Qinuma Walled City." ”
The walled city of Qinuma is a place where local residents gather, and it is also a place where local gangs operate, so of course the driver is reluctant to enter. At first, Ye Tianzhi said that he would only let him be sent to the periphery of Qi Nuan.
"Master driver, you drive forward a little, and I'll add another 20,000 yuan to you." Ye Tianzhi said with a smile.
"No, little brother, this is really not good." The driver said with a sad face.
Ye Tianzhi saw that this driver was afraid of this, and he didn't want to force him, so he turned his head to look at the poisonous rose.
Poison Rose said lightly: "Don't worry, even if you encounter a local gang, I will protect you." ”
Hearing Poison Rose's words, the driver was even more frightened, and even the hand holding the steering wheel trembled a little: "Miss, that's not what you said, we said okay at the beginning, I will only send you to the periphery of Qi Swamp ......"
Before the driver could finish his words, he heard a loud sound, and the long whip of the poisonous rose wrapped around the driver's neck.
"If you don't want to die, give me a quick drive." Poison Rose's cold voice rang out.
Seeing this, Ye Tianzhi couldn't help but smile slightly, and said in his heart that this poisonous rose is really domineering, and it is difficult for this driver.
The driver was so frightened that he almost didn't drive the car into the ditch, he suppressed the fear in his heart, slammed on the accelerator, and the car rushed forward.
At this moment, the driver is crying bitterly in his heart, he should not be greedy for money to take this business, but he didn't expect these two little couples who look harmless to humans and animals to be so fierce, they are really unseemly. net
The car drove forward for more than ten minutes, and then drove into the walled city of Qinuma.
Ye Tianzhi found that the walled city of Qinuma was still quite lively, but as far as the eye could see, there were local residents, and after entering the walled city, Ye Tianzhi seemed to smell a faint fragrance, with a hint of sweetness and erosion.
Ye Tianzhi thought to himself that this should be the smell of poppies, there are large poppy fields in this walled city, so the air carries that smell.
"Miss, can we park our car?" The driver asked cautiously, his voice a little shaky.
Poison Rose didn't answer, so the driver didn't dare to say any more, and continued to drive forward, and after driving for a short while, Poison Rose glanced out the window, and then said, "Stop here." ”
The driver immediately applied the brakes and pulled over to the side of the road.
Ye Tianzhi followed the eyes of the poisonous rose and saw a dilapidated hotel on the side of the road, called "Yuanlai Inn".
"The name of this inn is quite interesting." Ye Tianzhi looked at the hotel with a smile, its signature paint peeled off and was mottled.
Poison Rose said, "I'll go in and get something, you wait for me here." ”
"Don't we have to go in together?" Ye Tianzhi asked with a smile.
"You're afraid I'll run away?" She turned her head and glanced at Ye Tianzhi, and then said, "If you want to follow, just follow." ”
"Then I'll follow." Ye Tianzhi said with a smile.
She didn't say anything, opened the car door and got out of the car, and Ye Tianzhi also got out of the car.
Just as the driver breathed a sigh of relief, Ye Tianzhi suddenly said again: "Driver, you wait here first, we will come out soon, and we will take your car when the time comes." ”
Hearing this, the driver's expression suddenly froze, Nima, is this still not a way to live?
"What, do you have an opinion?" Ye Tianzhi asked with a smile.
"Don't dare, don't dare! I'm waiting for you right here. The driver nodded hurriedly, but said in his heart: "You treat me as a fool?" Now I promise you, I'll drive away as soon as you're in, and he'll be terrified of staying in this place for a while. ”
Ye Tianzhi chuckled, then reached out and patted the driver on the shoulder.
The driver felt that his upper body suddenly stiffened, and he couldn't move, not only did he stare at Ye Tianzhi with a shocked expression, but he didn't know what kind of demon trick Ye Tianzhi had used.
"Brother, you just wait here obediently, I'll go first." Ye Tianzhi turned around with a smile, only to see that the poisonous rose had already walked into the inn at this moment, and Ye Tianzhi immediately followed.
Of course Ye Tianzhi will not fully trust this woman, this poisonous rose is quite cunning, otherwise it would not be possible to commit so many big cases in the world and still run all over the world, even the dragon group can't help her.
For such a woman, it is not enough to keep a heart, you must pay a lot of attention.
After Ye Tianzhi walked into this inn in one step, she felt that it was very dark inside, and at this moment there was a thin old man sitting behind the counter of the inn, wearing a gray cloth dress.
"I'm looking for Huai Wu." Poison Rose walked to the counter, looked at the old man and said.
As she spoke, she reached out and knocked on the counter a few times, first three times, then twice, what seemed to be a code for a joint.
This woman is really mysterious, and I don't know what her relationship is with this inn.
The old man looked up at her with cloudy eyes, then stood up and said in a hoarse voice, "Follow me." ”
Then Ye Tianzhi and Poison Rose followed the old man upstairs, and after going upstairs, the old man walked to the door of a room and knocked on the door, and said a bunch of words in his mouth, which sounded like Laos or Vietnamese.
"I see, you go down." A man's voice came from inside, speaking in Huaxia.
The old man turned and went downstairs, and a moment later a man in a coarse cloth coat pushed open the door and came out, tall and thin, pale, and sickly-looking, but his eyes were bright.
The moment he saw this man, Ye Tianzhi could see that the other party was a martial artist at the peak of the Teng Realm.
The man first glanced at it, and then turned his gaze to Ye Tianzhi, with a look of doubt and vigilance in his eyes.
"I'm here to get something like that, give it to me." Poison Rose looked at the man and said lightly.
The man and Poison Rose looked at each other, and then the man turned and retreated into the room.
Ye Tianzhi's heart moved, just now, when Poison Rose and this man looked at each other, he seemed to read something from this man's eyes.
Ye Tianzhi's keen intuition told him that there were ghosts in this!
Soon the man walked out of the room, holding a tin box in his hand.
"That's what you want." The poisonous rose didn't reach out to take it, but turned to look at Ye Tianzhi and said, "Now I give it to you, as your life-saving grace to me." ”
Ye Tianzhi smiled and asked, "What exactly is in this box?" ”
"I don't know." She shook her head and said, "I haven't opened this box yet, it's just that since the Holy Heaven Sect attaches so much importance to this thing, it must be something very important." ”
"You haven't opened this box?" Ye Tianzhi looked at the poisonous rose suspiciously.
"Not bad." Poison Rose nodded: "Because the lock on this box is very unique, the Meridian Mandarin Duck Lock, you should have heard of it?" This kind of lock cannot be forcibly opened, and if it is forcibly opened, the mechanism inside will be detonated, and the contents will be destroyed. I've been looking for a craftsman who can open the lock, but I've never been able to find it. As long as you find those lockpickers who are skilled in this way, you can open this box, and I wish you good luck. ”
"Is that so?" Ye Tianzhi looked at the poisonous rose with a smile: "Are you joking?" ”
Hearing this, Poison Rose frowned and said, "You don't believe what I said? ”
"I'm just worried that when the time comes, I'll stupidly get a locksmith to open the lock, and it will only end up with a stone inside, or nothing at all." Ye Tianzhi said with a smile.
"I've already handed it over to you anyway. Believe it or not is your business. Poison Rose said coldly.
Ye Tianzhi chuckled, touched the small iron box, and then suddenly exerted force with both hands, so the iron box made a loud noise, and under the agitation of Ye Tianzhi's internal force, the iron box exploded directly.
The iron box was blown into a few pieces of iron, but there was nothing inside, seeing this, Ye Tianzhi sneered.
He knew that Poison Rose was playing such a trick, fooling himself with a broken box with nothing, and making up the so-called meridian mandarin duck lock.
Seeing this, Poison Rose's face changed, and a murderous aura suddenly rose on her body.
It was at this time that Ye Tianzhi suddenly smelled a very strong, choking fragrance in his nose.
Ye Tianzhi was shocked in his heart and felt that something was wrong.
So Ye Tianzhi's heart moved, and his consciousness immediately escaped into the Qihuang Holy Pillow.
And Ye Tianzhi's body fell straight to the ground, falling on the wooden floor, making a muffled sound.
Poisonous Rose looked at Ye Tianzhi who was lying on the ground, snorted lightly, and a sneer appeared on her face.
"Although what I said is false, if you believe it, at least you can save your life. It's a pity that you are a little clever, but you are smart but you are mistaken by cleverness. Poisonous Rose looked at Ye Tianzhi's face and sighed faintly.
"Lord Incense, what now? Kill this person? The tall and thin man on the side said to Poison Rose.
Poison Rose nodded, so the man kicked Ye Tianzhi's head, if he kicked it this time, then Ye Tianzhi would have to burst his brain.
"Wait." Seeing this, the poisonous rose suddenly frowned, and rolled the long whip in his hand, rolling Ye Tianzhi aside, so the man kicked to the floor, and the hard wooden floor was kicked out of a big hole.
