Chapter 32: Earth Dragon Poison
Bai Ying suddenly appeared in front of Guo Hongkui and Guo Shiqi and said the word "cooperation", which made both of them a little surprised, originally both of them thought that Bai Ying was here to deal with them. But at the same time, they could hear it, and the White Shadow must have used something like a voice changer.
"Cooperation? What to work with? Guo Hongkui asked, glancing at the distance, worried that such a conversation would not be heard by people in the distance.
"Find the treasure of the Khan Khanate, let's divide it into four or six, I six, you four, how about it?" The white shadow said word by word.
Guo Shiqi sneered and looked at Bai Ying, but Guo Hongkui asked expressionlessly: "Why do you think that I will cooperate with a guy who I don't know and almost killed my relatives?" ”
Bai Ying chuckled, "Isn't your family not dead?" And he almost killed me, so let's settle the bill, and besides, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't be able to find the treasure of the Khan Khanate, and you might die here. ”
Guo Hongkui grinned: "When did I say that I was going to find the treasure of the Khanate?" We were just about to leave for home, and we weren't interested in the treasure. ”
"Really?" Bai Ying smiled, "As far as I know, the Guo family has come from' The Republic of China's beginning has been living in exile, eating the last meal and not the next meal, the purpose is to hide your identity and protect the real Qimen, but sadly, even you don't know where Qimen is, so you have been staring at the Tian family, and now the reason why you follow the torture is entirely because the torture has the most Qimen clues in your hands, and now, you also clearly know that this place has no connection with Qimen, but you are reluctant to leave, and let the person named Bai Zhongzheng go to tell the torture and others about the termite nest, no matter how stupid people are, they know what you want to do? ”
Guo Hongkui stared at the white shadow in front of him, and before he could speak, Guo Shiqi suddenly shot at the white shadow, and was dragged back by Guo Hongkui, and at the same time of pulling back, he pushed Guo Shigui away with one palm, and at the moment of pushing away, the two saw a silver white flying in front of their eyes, penetrating the trunk of the tree in the distance, and nailing it to the trunk of the second tree behind, which was a nail that could be seen everywhere.
Guo Shiqi looked at Guo Hongkui in shock, knowing that if Guo Hongkui hadn't made a move, he would have been penetrated by that nail a long time ago.
Bai Ying looked at the strange "grunt" sound in the throats of the two of them, like laughter, and then arched his hand and said, "It's ugly." ”
Guo Hongkui also stepped forward and clenched his fists: "Excuse me, your Excellency's name?" ”
"You know that if you ask, you will ask in vain." Bai Ying sneered, "It's not the past now, there are not so many rules, whoever has the strength, who can lead everyone to make money, who is the master, so, I will definitely do this deal, you also heard the words of the torture art just now, and now under this ice, in addition to me and you, as well as the torture technique, there is also a group of people, a total of four groups of people, you probably don't know what the fourth group of people do, right?" They are experts, real treasure hunt experts, who have come back from abroad, have a lot of experience, and are the dispatching commissioners of the Cusco company in China! ”
Guo Shiqi looked at Guo Hongkui, obviously asking: What is Cusco Company?
Guo Hongkui didn't have a chance to explain to Guo Shiqi now, but just motioned him to listen quietly with his eyes, but Bai Ying explained directly to Guo Shiji: "That's the top three in the world, and the international treasure hunting company that has been hovering in the top three, the reason why the company is called that name is because of the ancient city of Cusco in the Andes Mountains of Peru, these three people belong to the BM team, that is, Blue Moon Blue Moon, This squad once made a name for itself in the Pacific Ocean by picking up the sapphire named Blue Moon that was lost during World War II, and since then this squad has used the abbreviation BM, and no one in the world is not aware of their strength. ”
As a treasure keeper, Guo Hongkui is of course very aware of the Cusco company, and has also heard of the BM team, I heard that they not only hunt for treasures, but also escort valuables part-time, from this point it is not difficult to see that the people in this team have military experience, but the outside world knows very little about them, but there are many rumors, the most exaggerated legend is that the BM team once killed the rebels in a diamond mine in a certain country in East Africa for two "mandarin duck diamonds", and did not leave half of the mouth, and when the government army arrived, There are only four words that come into view - corpses are everywhere.
Guo Hongkui was also speculating on Bai Ying's identity in his heart at this time, Bai Ying looked at Guo Hongkui's eyes and looked at him, and said with a strange smile: "It's useless, you will never know who I am, even if I say my name, you don't know it, there are so many people in the world, there are more than a billion people in China alone, do you know them all?" ”
Guo Hongkui smiled and said: "I understand what you mean, you want to say that our biggest enemy is the three people of the BM team, we had better join forces to deal with them first, and then deal with the torture art and others, and finally we can sit down and divide the treasure equally, right?" ”
White Shadow simply let out a "hmm".
Guo Hongkui nodded: "It's good, I think so, let's cooperate, your skills are good, I will take the wind for you, you go to solve the people in the BM team, and then solve the criminal arts, please rest assured, I am a professional leader, and I have been a professional leader for decades!" ”
Guo Shiqi looked at Bai Ying with a sneer.
Bai Ying said coldly: "You don't believe me. ”
Guo Hongkui said expressionlessly: "You want to use me." ”
Bai Ying smiled and said, "Okay, let's go our separate ways, but you must know that if you go your own way, you will be my enemy, and you will be my enemy......"
"To be your enemy is a dead end, right?" Guo Hongkui said with a smile, "I, Guo Hongkui, have been traveling south and north for so many years, I listen to this kind of words hundreds of times a year, save some tongues, and only then can I see the superiority in kung fu!" ”
The white shadow snorted coldly, turned around and slowly disappeared into the darkness, and the surrounding area returned to the previous dead silence.
"Kui Ye, what should I do?" Guo Shiqi looked at Guo Hongkui.
Guo Hongkui thought about it, put on his corpse face, and motioned for Guo Shiqi to put it on, and then said: "Now that we have to join forces with them, this is the best policy." ”
"Huh?" Guo Shiji was surprised, "What about the middle and lower strategies?" ”
"The middle strategy is that we are doing it alone, and the next strategy is to pretend to cooperate with that guy and wait for an opportunity to take him, but the success rate of the next strategy is very low, and he can show up in front of us, which means that this person has already calculated all this, and it is also good that we cannot cooperate with him. He's just here to make sure, and he's telling us that he's pretty sure and 100% confident that he can easily take out all of us. Guo Hongkui touched his chin, "So, in order to take care of the overall situation, we must cooperate with the criminal arts." ”
Guo Shizhen was a little confused: "What kind of cooperation method?" ”
"You show up to meet them, you have to show up suddenly, you must surprise Zhongzheng, but you don't take off the mask, you can tell them your name, don't worry, they can't find it, you know, we are people who can't be found in the household register." Guo Hongkui said in a low voice, "As for me, I will always follow you and guard you in the dark." ”
Guo Shiqi suddenly understood something: "Kui Ye, you heard the words of that kid in the torture technique earlier, and I heard him speculate that there is more than one of us, so you let me show up and let them relax their vigilance, right?" ”
Guo Hongkui smiled: "Shiji, you are finally enlightened and use your brain." Yes, my plan is this, first, to make them think that only you and Zhongzheng exist, and you are sincere in helping them; Second, after letting them relax a little, the killer can take advantage of it, which is equivalent to me laying out a double insurance game here. ”
"The bureau of double insurance?" Guo Shiji shook his head and said he didn't understand.
Guo Hongkui looked into the distance: "You think, they relax their vigilance in torture, and that killer will have a chance, and then he will only have two choices, one is to attack you, but if you start to deal with you, there is me in the shadows, he will attack you, and I will seize the opportunity to attack him." Second, when he saw that I didn't show up, he could roughly judge what I was doing in the shadows, so I wouldn't attack you easily, so you would be safe, which is what I call double insurance. ”
Guo Shiqi said worriedly: "Kui Ye, but, what if he deals with you?" ”
"Don't worry, he and I are in the dark, dark to dark, I can't suffer a loss, I stare at him to death, he doesn't dare to act rashly!" Guo Hongkui smiled confidently, "Go ahead and do what I instruct." ”
As he spoke, Guo Hongkui walked in the opposite direction of the white shadow, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
Guo Shiqi stood there, hesitated for a moment, tightened his mask, and walked towards the location of Xingshu and the others.
In the woods under the ice, the torturers and others were digging up those bones, and now fifty-six bodies had been dug up, which was already the fastest speed, because Bai Zhongzheng had also joined the ranks of the excavation.
At this time, Guo Shiqi hid from a distance and watched, he remembered Guo Hongkui's words, the timing of his appearance should be appropriate, so appropriate that Bai Zhongzheng was surprised, he knew that this was done to make Bai Zhongzheng's surprise appear naturally, this kind of naturalness would make the criminal art they think that Bai Zhongzheng did not expect him to appear at all, in other words, that is, let the criminal art turn the previous speculation of "there are two people plus Bai Zhongzheng" into a confirmed fact, in this way, At least for a short period of time, the fact that there is still a Guo Hongkui can be concealed.
The excavation was going on, Guo Shiji continued to wait for the opportunity, and this opportunity came soon, because he smelled a very strong smell of medicine, which was stronger than what he had smelled before, something suddenly flashed in his mind, and he immediately took out a small bowl from his pocket, grabbed a handful of lime and put it in it, and rushed towards the torture and the others.
The moment Guo Shizheng rushed over, Yan Gang was the first to find out, he immediately put the shovel in front of him, and after seeing clearly that Guo Shizheng was wearing the same corpse face as Bai Zhongzheng, he was very surprised, and the torture technique also subconsciously looked at Bai Zhongzheng, and found that Bai Zhongzheng was obviously shocked, and his head kept turning in the direction of Guo Shizheng, which obviously did not expect this to happen.
"You're poisoned!" Guo Shiqi stopped when he rushed to Yan Gang, "It's the earth dragon poison!" ”
As he spoke, Guo Shiqi put the small bowl on the ground, poured some water into the small bowl, and after the water was mixed with quicklime, it immediately began to boil, and then Guo Shiqi crushed the peeled garlic in his hand, and then spread it out and said: "Put it in your mouth, hurry up!" ”
Xingshu and the others didn't understand what was going on, Yan Gang and Tian Lianfeng both looked at Guo Shizheng who suddenly appeared vigilantly, while Xingshu and He Chenxue looked at Bai Zhongzheng who was standing there not far away.
Bai Zhongzheng's mind was spinning fast, he was thinking about how all this could happen, although he didn't think it through, but he also knew that this matter must have been instructed by Kui Ye, otherwise, Guo Shizheng would not have the courage to reveal his whereabouts, and then he raised his head towards Guo Shizheng and said, "He is my brother, the other person you saw in the tube building that night." ”
Xingshu nodded, revealing an expression of "sure enough", this expression was seen by Guo Shiqiu, Guo Shiji knew that Guo Hongkui's arrangement was half successful, but immediately said urgently: "Hurry up, with crushed garlic can avoid the dragon poison, I will use lime water to disinfect, otherwise if you dig like this, everyone will be in danger." ”
Yan Gang didn't take it, but just asked, "What is Earth Dragon Poison?" ”
Bai Zhongzheng, who was not far away, immediately said: "Believe him, he is an expert, and it depends on him for first aid when he goes out, he is a doctor, but a doctor who writes home remedies." ”
"Garlic won't poison you! But Earth Dragon Poison can! Guo Shiji almost gritted his teeth and said this, Yan Gang looked at the torture technique, the torture technique nodded, and took the lead in grabbing a little bit and holding it in his mouth, and the rest of the people followed suit.
At this time, He Chenxue looked at Bai Zhongzheng and asked, "Why don't you have it?" ”
Before Bai Zhongzheng could explain, Guo Shiji, who was squatting on the ground and fanning the smoke produced by the boiling lime water with his hands, explained: "The mask we wear is soaked in medicinal water, and ordinary toxins can't erode it, so it can be regarded as half a gas mask. ”
Yan Gang asked again, "What is the Earth Dragon Poison?" ”
Guo Shizhen replied without raising his head: "It's earthworm poison, but the earthworm poison here is a mixture of a powdery poison called earthworm grass and laurel grass, the first time I smell it is very irritating, but soon the nose will adapt to this smell and ignore it, because I am in this business, I have been smelling medicine since I was a child, so I can't hide my nose, the closer I get, the stronger I feel, and finally it is determined that it is the earth dragon poison, and the person who poisoned it is very powerful, and this poison has been planted when these people die." ”
Xingshu and the others glanced at each other, and they couldn't understand what Guo Shiji was saying at all.
"It's normal to be separated by mountains, just as I barely know much about anything other than medicine." Guo Shiqi carefully took the small bowl and walked around, walking between the bones that were dug up, waiting for the lime water to stop boiling, and after pouring it out, he made a new bowl, explaining as he walked, "This kind of earth dragon poison is planted, and it was lost in the 'Republic of China', who first found it I don't know, in short, this method was used to deal with those tomb robbers, but they are all methods used by the people, after all, people like civil landlords, even if they have money, they can't build a dungeon, so they can only use the method of using dragon poison." ”
The so-called earth dragon poison is actually a method inadvertently invented by the folk Lang in the Central Plains to deal with tomb robbers, and people who don't understand it are regarded as Gu poison, but in fact it is not.
To make earth dragon poison, you must first dig out earthworms in a cemetery, preferably a place like a mass grave, dry and grind these earthworms into powder, and then steam them in a pot with earthworm grass and laurel grass, steam them for two hours, soak the fungus with steamed water, and then cut the corpse, fill it with earthworm powder, earthworm grass powder, laurel grass powder and soil, and then put in the fungus, this process is a bit like planting mushrooms......
Then the corpse will be put into the coffin, but usually this kind of corpse is a "voluntary donation" or a rich person paid for it, which is a kind of camouflage, put into a fake tomb to deceive the tomb robbers, once the corpse is buried, the weird earth dragon mushroom will grow out quickly, and it will die quickly, after death, the mushroom will become dust, this dust has been spreading and floating around the corpse, forming a unique toxin, that is, earth dragon poison.
"After the earth dragon poison is inhaled, normally it will take at least one to two hours after the poison occurs, which is almost an hour." Guo Shiqi said here and looked up at Yan Gang and Tian Lianfeng in front of him, "After the poison, people will have a strong hallucination, feel that they are attacked, think that everyone around them is an enemy, and kill each other, and the easiest way is to neutralize and decompose with garlic." ”
Then, Guo Shiqi put down the bowl: "It's almost, but if you have to dig up the corpse later, you must keep the garlic in your mouth, otherwise you will still be poisoned." ”
At this time, everyone heard a very clear "grunt", and then everyone turned their heads to look at Tian Lianfeng, who made a sound.
Tian Lianfeng coughed, his eyes moved around, and he showed an embarrassed smile: "Is there anything else?" I just chewed ...... Chewed and eaten. ”
"It's not garlic when you eat dumplings, do you swallow it?" Yan Gang looked at Tian Lianfeng.
Tian Lianfeng smiled embarrassedly, took another clove of garlic from Guo Shiji, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and didn't speak.
"You are ......" Xingshu looked at Guo Shiji, "Friend, you should introduce yourself more or less, right?" ”
"I'm his brother, I'm a doctor, my name is Guo Shiji." Guo Shizheng walked towards Bai Zhongzheng, and the two people wearing corpse faces stood together and glanced at each other.
Yan Gang held the shovel on one side: "Gone?" ”
"It's gone." Guo Shiqi laughed after speaking.
"What do you do? Why follow us? Torture asked.
Guo Shizheng didn't speak, he knew that these questions should not be answered by him, Bai Zhongzheng would naturally answer.
Bai Zhongzheng looked at the torture technique and said, "You don't need to know this, what you need to know is that we are here to help you." ”
"How do you know there's a corpse down here? Do you know what happened here? He Chenxue stepped forward and asked.
"No, we only know that this is a termite nest, and we know how this kind of acupuncture point buries people, but other than that, we don't know anything, we just think you are running around like headless flies, so we came out to help you." After Bai Zhongzheng finished speaking, seeing that Xingshu and the others still wanted to ask, he immediately raised his hand and said, "That's all I need to answer, if you still want to ask, we can refuse to answer; If you are not satisfied with our refusal, we can go, and you will settle the rest of the matter yourself! ”
Xingshu didn't speak, just looked at Bai Zhongzheng and Guo Shiji, he knew that Bai Zhongzheng was forcing himself and giving himself a big problem. Seeing that the two people in front of them are indeed capable, with them, the next thing may be simpler, and they can save their lives at a critical time, but their unknown identity and purpose will also make the next thing add an unknown amount of danger, and it is not easy for him to unite this loose team, and two more people will be killed halfway, and new contradictions will definitely be added to the team.
How to choose? The torture technique was a little uncertain, and he stood there pondering.
