Chapter Twenty-Four: The Death
Wang Lu left.
When everyone, whether it was the ignorant people, the people who were stimulated by the performances of the city officials one after another, and the bureaucrats who gained confidence from the constantly improving data, thought that the general situation was timely, Wang Lu actually left.
He ran out of the city single-handedly, leaving behind all the guards and subordinates, and by the time his soldiers found no one in the house the next morning, Wang Lu had already left the city a hundred miles away.
At this time, even the spectators outside the gate of sentient beings couldn't understand, where was he going? After a while, the answer was revealed, and many people's jaws were shocked again.
Wang Lu actually went straight to the main altar of the Demon Sect, he changed his appearance, pretended to be a wandering Taoist, and walked directly to the guards outside the main altar, and reported to his home.
"I am a member of the Giant Yang Dao, and I have come to visit your deputy sect leader on this trip."
"Juyang Daoist?"
The guard was surprised, looked Wang Lu up and down, and then showed a cruel smile, and black smoke rose from his hand: "Where did you come from, I don't know where I ...... alive or dead?"
Before the words fell, a little cold light was dotted in front of his forehead, Wang Lu's Kunshan Sword was not strong when killing, but it was not something that a small guard could resist.
The little soldier said stiffly: "Even if you kill me, I ......"
"I won't kill you, you go back and tell your deputy sect leader, the Juyang Daoist asks to see, he naturally knows the Dao. Everyone is a civilized person, and there is no need to fight and kill when they meet. ”
The soldier fled back in disarray.
Not long after, dozens of demon cultivators came from all directions and surrounded Wang Lu in the middle, but no one dared to make a move. After a while, a rickety old man appeared in the main altar, glanced at Wang Lu, and asked him to follow.
Wang Lu smiled, and followed the old man into the main altar of the Demon Sect without fear, as if it was not the Longtan Tiger's Den in front of him.
Speaking of which, Wang Lu stepped on the right time at this point, at this time, the Demon Sect Leader went out with two deputy sect leaders and a large number of henchmen, and only one deputy sect leader guarded the main altar. It was the emptiest time, but Wang Lu did not show any hostility at all, and the identity of the Juyang Daoist seemed to have been recognized by the deputy sect leader, without intending to provoke disputes, the Demon Sect did not act immediately, and Wang Lu, under the leadership of the rickety old man, soon saw the target of this trip in a secret room, a strong giant man, and also the deputy sect leader at the bottom of the Demon Sect.
"Juyang Daoist? Have you deceived me that there is no one in the Divine Sect, Lord of the City of Wang Lu"
was revealed by the Dao, but Wang Lu didn't care, but instead bit back: "I changed my face to give you face, otherwise I would have come too much to slap my face with my real body, and I didn't think of you but I didn't know how to lift you." ”
"Hmph" The giant man was angry, but he was a little happy in his heart.
For this city lord who suppressed the spread of Gu poison in Yunfeng City in just a few days, the Demon Sect can be said to hate it to the core, what he did in Yunfeng City not only solved the crisis of Yunfeng City, but also popularized it in the Black Country as an advanced experience, so that the Demon Sect's investment in several other cities had little effect, if it weren't for the fact that the Gu poison is still unsolved, the number of walking corpses is still increasing in general, and the Demon Sect's plan is afraid that it will all fail, and the initiator is now throwing himself into the net, which is simply a meritorious feat sent to the door, This deputy sect leader couldn't help but feel that it was time to run.
As long as you take away the head of the other, among the three deputy leaders of this demon sect, your position can be moved forward.
"Anyway, since you're here, don't go."
As the Deputy Sect Master spoke, he smiled hideously.
However, Wang Lu only used one sentence to make the deputy sect leader's expression change drastically and stop his movements.
"I've got the antidote, and you're not going to sing."
"What?"
Seeing Wang Lu's calm face, the deputy sect leader was shocked in his heart, the Gu poison was accumulated by the Demon Sect for decades, and it was only developed once it broke out, how could it be so easy to crack? But the other party swears, but it doesn't seem like a bluff...... Nonsense, how can there be any reason to risk your life to come here and bluff? Is he sick?
Wang Lu said: "You don't believe it, so I'll verify it for you...... You recognize this, right? ”
Wang Lu shook a bottle of black thick juice in his hand, and the deputy sect leader naturally recognized that it was a highly concentrated Gu poison, which was enough to ⊥ hundreds of people to turn into walking corpses in an instant. Thinking of this, the deputy sect leader's face changed, if this guy broke the bottle, could the formation of this place be suppressed? If the Gu poison spreads rapidly in the main altar, it will also be troublesome...... However, that is the trick that will end up together, this concentration of Gu poison, even if it is a special antidote made by the Demon Sect, it can't save lives. What's more, the antidote is a highly confidential resource of the Demon Sect, and there is a record of the whereabouts of any of them, and there is no news of the disappearance of the antidote in the near future, so he has no reason to get it
However, in the next moment, what Wang Lu did surprised the deputy sect leader even more than directly breaking the bottle to spread the Gu poison.
He actually uncorked the bottle and swallowed the black juice into his mouth
With a dashing swallow, there was not a drop of Gu poison left.
"You ......" The deputy sect leader was stunned for a long time, completely speechless, and then silently activated the formation, preparing to face a walking corpse who did not know whether to live or die, but had amazing strength.
Even if the sect leader cultivates with the golden pill, even if he takes the antidote, swallowing such a bottle of high-concentration Gu poison raw is a dead end......
However, in the shocked gaze of the deputy sect leader, Wang Lu's smile did not change, and he even spoke: "This taste reminds me of the craftsmanship of a friend of mine. ”
The young man in front of him looked at ease, and he didn't suffer at all, let alone be eroded by Gu poison...... The deputy sect leader was bitter in his heart, but he had to believe his words, indeed, there was no stronger proof than this. The other party got the antidote, and it was a more clever antidote than the Demon Sect.
At the same time, outside the Gate of All Living Beings, all the Ten Thousand Law Immortal Sect cultivators frowned.
When did Wang Lu get the antidote? They hadn't seen it at all, let alone when Wang Lu would have time to develop an antidote? The Gu poison in this illusion will be different every time the illusion is activated, even if he has just witnessed the whole process of developing the antidote in the night of the slash, it will not save much research and development time. Unless he already has a very high attainment in the pill Gu poison side, he can deduce the formula by himself at a glance, but...
This group of academic monks naturally couldn't guess that Wang Lu simply used the brute force to crack the method, and relied on the inviolability of all poisons that he had cultivated to carry the Gu poison that was hard to carry back then, and when it came to the power of the yin poison far superior to this Gu poison, they couldn't help Wang Lu, and it was indeed not a problem to swallow the Gu poison alive at this time.
But this trick frightened people inside and outside the phantom realm.
It took a long time for the deputy sect leader to calm down the turmoil in his heart, and he spoke with great difficulty, and confirmed it for the last time: "You really got the antidote?"
Wang Lu smiled: "Otherwise, what do you think? You don't know how powerful the Gu poison you produce is in your own heart? ”
"......" the Vice-Sect Master fell silent again, "So, what exactly do you want to do here?" ”
"There's no need to pretend to be stupid, I brought such a domineering trump card to your Demon Sect General Altar, what are you going to do, you can't guess?"
"Are you trying to persuade you to surrender? Whimsical" The deputy sect leader was categorical, "If you want to deceive me with this kind of rhetoric, you will inevitably underestimate me too much......"
"Shut up, idiot" Wang Lu interrupted the other party mercilessly, facing the anger of the deputy sect leader, his eyes turned cold, "Rhetoric? In this Gu poison crisis, the defeat of your Demon Sect has been decided, is it a rhetoric that you don't know? Although your Gu poison is powerful, as long as it is effectively prevented and targeted, it will not really cause an uncontrollable situation, not to mention that I still have an antidote in hand. The turmoil in the Black Country will soon be over, and how long will you be able to hold out in the face of our nationwide retaliation? ”
The deputy sect leader wanted to say a few hard words, but he couldn't say the words when the words came to his lips, he was not stupid, it was difficult to lie to himself.
So back to the old question: "What do you want?" ”
Wang Lu's cold and mocking gaze made the deputy sect leader feel cold and tired. The silent old man in the secret room of the deputy sect leader is his confidant, and there is no need to shy away from some words.
"You shouldn't look for me about Zhao'an, I don't have the right to call the shots."
Wang Lu sneered: "So since you're looking for you, it's not for Zhao'an, like you demon sect demons, I can't afford to recruit An." ”
"So what are you here for?" The deputy sect leader was a little angry.
Wang Lu was silent for a while, but his eyes became more contemptuous: "Actually, as long as you empathize, it is not difficult to come up with my reasons, I am the biggest contributor to the resolution of this Gu poison crisis, whether it is the prevention and response in the early stage, or the current antidote development, it can be said that I have saved millions of people in the Black Country, right?" ”
The deputy sect leader snorted coldly and did not answer.
Wang Lu continued: "I will be a hero, a hero like the sun and the sky, a hero like a savior, poets sing my praises, fools worship me, young women regard me as an idol and a dream lover, and even the most jealous man will have to bow his head in my light."
"Are you showing off?"
"No, I just want to ask, if you are the king of the black country, how do you feel in the face of such a hero?"
The deputy sect leader of the Demon Sect was only stunned for a moment, and then guessed the purpose of Wang Lu's trip, and for a while, he only felt extremely ridiculous
Well, I knew that today would be a great achievement, why did I act so high-profile in the first place, and play the role of a savior? Don't you think it's ridiculous that now that heroes are enough, but they come here to complain to their opponents?
Seeing what the deputy sect leader was thinking, Wang Lu sneered: "I'm not here to ask for sympathy and comfort, in fact, you are not qualified to sympathize with me, even if the king is jealous, I don't dare to do anything to me, I am the hero of this country, but you are not at all."
The deputy sect leader snorted, "What do you want?" ”
"It's very simple, in three days, I will invite His Majesty the King to come down to my Yunfeng City, and at that time, you will have a chance to do it. I will give you the information, you should know how to teach the initiative and do it. ”
The deputy sect leader was not surprised, but he felt ridiculous: "And then? We remove the king for you, and then you uproot us with your hands, and then you step on the bones of all and crown us? ”
Wang Lu almost laughed out loud: "Your brain seems to be a mess, it will be the Demon Sect Leader and his most loyal deputy sect leaders who will be uprooted, as for you, you will integrate the Demon Sect after this catastrophe and become the new Demon Sect Leader......"
"And your dog." The Deputy Sect Leader said coldly, "Although I'm not that smart, I'm not stupid either. ”
"Since you are not stupid, you should know the Tao, being my dog is better than being a dead man, you have my biggest secret, you and I live and die together, this is the only opportunity you can grasp."
"Or I can keep you here forever, and without you, we may not have no chance."
Wang Lu sneered: "Since I dare to come, do you think I will worry about your methods?" I want to leave, even if your sect leader comes, you won't be able to keep me.
As he spoke, he took a step back, and the entire secret room shook, and half of the formation that the deputy sect leader had arranged here was destroyed by the brutal force
"You ......" The deputy sect leader stared at the other party like a ghost, it seems that this Yunfeng City major is not a high-grade Qi cultivator, but this ability to break the formation seems to be a few points stronger than the self who is the best grade in building the foundation?
But he didn't know that Wang Lu didn't have the patience to analyze any formation at all, let alone study the way to break the formation, he just inserted the innate phaseless sword qi into the demonic power cycle of the formation under his feet, and then ...... The formation collapsed on its own.
Seeing that all the means had no effect, the deputy sect lord weighed it for a while, and finally made a decision: "Okay, I promise you. ”
"A wise choice." Wang Lu nodded, "Remember, it's the Juyang Dao people who came today, and you are old friends...... Control the mouths of those below. ”
Three days later, the king of the Black Kingdom came to Yunfeng City, warmly commended the outstanding contributions of the city lord Wang Lu, and delivered a passionate speech in the city. Subsequently, despite Wang Lu's dissuasion, he went to the outskirts of the city to visit the victims in the disaster area, which brought tears to the eyes of countless victims.
Naturally, people of insight just sneered at this, when the outbreak of the Gu poison epidemic was at its most intense, His Majesty the King was trembling in the royal city, and now that the order of Yunfeng City has been decided, he came to the front line to buy people's hearts But since ancient times, whether it is a king or a minister, his style of action is like this, and there is no surprise. When the king has had enough of this place, he will leave when he has bought enough people's hearts.
But then, the unexpected happened.
On the way back to the capital, the king was ambushed, and the Demon Cult leader led a large number of his men to suddenly kill him, and fought the king's guards in a valley in the dark.
If it weren't for the Yunfeng City Lord Wang Lu leading the army to rescue the driver in time, it would have been a massacre without suspense, after this battle, the Demon Sect Leader and his generals were all killed, and the Black Country's Protector Immortal Master and the captain of the personal guard were also unfortunately killed. His Majesty was seriously wounded and died three days after returning to the capital, and his only son, who was only three years old, succeeded to the throne, while Wang Lu ruled as regent.
The change of royal power in the black country is like a rabbit falling and falling, which is unexpected. But few people know that before the death of the king, he had a secret conversation with Wang Lu
colluded with the Demon Sect to assassinate the king, Wang Lu did not leave evidence, but the dying person did not need evidence. In the face of the king's doubts, Wang Lu was very calm, and put forward a condition that the dying man could not refuse.
"I will have no wife, no children, no offspring, but kingship for the rest of my life. This is a demonic oath, and you don't have to worry about me not keeping my promise.
Faced with a city lord in the ascendant, the king had no choice.
At this point, this illusion seems to have come to an end, outside the gate of all beings, the elders are amazed, in the past experience, it is not that no one has walked to the throne, but few people can make the black country change hands in a short period of time, and it is so logical
"Then, according to the established rules, as long as the last Gu poison in this illusion realm dies, Wang Lu's victory can be declared." Yuan Chaonian sighed, he didn't know what to say, he originally wanted to use this immortal treasure to deter the Spirit Sword Sect, but it was himself who was shocked.
But after a while, looking at the development in the illusion, Yuan Chaonian opened his mouth wide and found that he still underestimated Wang Lu.
In the illusion, Wang Lu has successfully established authority within the Black Country, the three-year-old new king is like a puppet in his hand, and the Demon Sect, which is greatly injured, can only survive in secret, as for the Gu poison crisis that once almost affected the whole country?
Now, the only remaining Gu poison patient in the country has been bound by Wang Lu with a special formation and kept in a museum in the capital of the Black Country, which is called a beautiful name, so that people will never forget that crisis.
The walking corpse had endless fresh meat to eat every day, and there were many people who were proficient in magic to maintain its body, and as the host of Gu poison, it was actually living comfortably
But the spectators outside the gate of all living beings can't be comfortable, Wang Lu, this kid is dragging the illusion until it ends, what is he thinking?
At this time, in the Black King's Palace, the regent finished a day's court meeting, and on the way back to the bedroom, he suddenly asked his soldiers a question.
"Xiao Li, if I say that what you know and see now is an ethereal dream, how would you feel?"
The loyal and wooden soldiers were stunned by the question, and thought for a long time: "I don't know how to ...... way"
Wang Lu smiled: "It's okay, I'll know the way." ”
