Chapter 134: Poison Venerable's Breath 1
"It doesn't matter, the more times you have been hunted down, the more you have experience." The King of Joy said angrily, Ling Wei was not angry when she heard it, she followed behind Poplar and King Escape, turned the courtyard walls, and walked a secret passage under a high-gate compound, and finally came to the tall walls of the palace. When they got here, none of the three of them dared to make a loud noise, gesturing to each other and communicating in low voices.
"Walk here, this side is close to the cold palace. It's that the road is getting more and more desolate, pay attention to your feet. The King of Joy whispered.
"Brother-in-law, I have an antidote to poisonous insects here." Ling Wei said flatteringly.
"Miss, it's too late to take the antidote when it's really poisoned." Poplar said and sprinkled a handful of poisonous powder at his feet, and immediately the sound of a soo sounded in the dead grass.
"Sister Bai, you are taking precautions in advance and teaching Ling Wei another lesson."
"Yes, whoever dares to visit someone's palace at night when you come to a strange country. The two Dayan people you developed are also brainless. ”
"They think their martial arts are very good, but in fact, I am too impulsive. It's really scary to think about it now, but fortunately I met Sister Bai and Brother-in-law Wang. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape, and in order not to cause trouble for Nanchuan Kingdom, I will also break it myself. Ling Wei said in real fear.
"Okay, let's blame ourselves when we go back, it's within the scope of the cold palace when you turn a corner."
As he walked on, the withered grass beneath his feet became thicker. The night breeze blew through the grass with a rattling sound. There was a dead silence inside and outside the walls. Inside the wall is a cold palace, and outside the wall is a large open space. Presumably no one wants to live here. This section of the wall belonging to the cold palace is very far away, and if the palace is a square, then the cold palace occupies one side.
"Brother-in-law, your palace is so big. It is several times larger than the imperial palace of our Nanchuan Kingdom. Could it be that all the places we walk belong to the cold palace? Ling Wei muttered as she walked.
"The back of our entire palace belongs to the category of the cold palace. No one knows how many people live here, and the guards guarding the cold palace are also the most crowded. It's not that I'm worried that the people here will go out to make trouble, but I'm worried that the people here will die and no one will carry them out. Therefore, the guards who guard this place are often wrong, and the old ones are injured and disabled. The King of Joy also introduced as he walked.
"Lord Wang, it doesn't make much sense for us to keep going like this. Presumably, the poison venerable will not live in the most desolate place. She also has to eat and drink every day, and someone has to bring her food. ”
"Yang'er, you're right, the front is the place where the concubines are more concentrated, and they have their own fixed kitchens. Meals and food are delivered on time every day. There are also some people who live on their own, cultivating wasteland and growing vegetables here like ordinary people. They have the freedom to live, but they don't have the freedom to go out of the palace. ”
"Lord Wang, then this place is more like a prison. Imprisonment for life, come here alive and get out when you die. ”
While Bai Yang and the King of Joy were talking, Ling Wei suddenly stopped moving. and motioned to Poplar and the King of Pleasure not to make a sound.
"Sister Bai, brother-in-law Wang, something tastes wrong here. Let's not walk against the root of the wall, I found that the dead grass here is not a natural death. The grass near the wall is supposed to have been raised by poison. Ling Wei said to the two of them in a low voice.
"Did it by your master Poison Venerable?" Poplar asked.
"Sister Bai, you also know about my master. For the time being, I can't be sure that my master did it. Let's go further and take a look, Sister Bai and Brother-in-law Wang, this time tell me to go ahead. Sister Bai, you don't need to sprinkle the powder, the powder and my master's poison will produce a special flavor when it meets. If my master was nearby, I wouldn't know what kind of person my master would become. Let's be careful. ”
"Is Miss growing up fast?" The King of Joy joked, grabbed the poplar and asked Ling Wei to walk in front.
Poplar and King Joy followed behind Ling Wei, getting farther and farther away from the wall. After walking for about half a mile, Ling Wei stopped.
"Sister Bai, brother-in-law of the prince. This is the center of the poison herb, I can't be sure for the time being, but it's my master who lives inside. It can only be affirmed that the poison herb is spreading from here to both sides. ”
"Can this poisonous weed poison people?"
"Brother-in-law Wang, this poison only has an effect on plants. This is something that is cultivated to refine poison. In addition to plants, there are also poisons that are specifically effective for small animals. I only know theoretical things, and when the master is gone, my brothers and sisters have taught me skills. Compared to them, I'm just getting started. ”
"Lord Wang, I'll go take a look first." Poplar said as he prepared to walk into the poisonous weeds.
"Sister Bai, I'd better go first, even if the master doesn't remember me as a child. I also have a way to circumvent my master's poison. ”
Before the three of them could decide who would go in first, there was movement inside the wall. The three of them hurriedly lurked, and saw a figure poking its head out of the wall. After a few moments, the man climbed the fence and put a ladder outside. The figure also followed the ladder to the grass below the wall. It looks like he is not very tall, and he is also dressed in black and masked. The man bent down as if he were harvesting the dead grass outside the wall. After a while, the man tied up a handful of withered grass and scraped off the face towel as he put it on his back. A face full of scars revealed in the moonlight. The three people who were shocked almost shouted out, it was too terrifying. Scarface climbed the ladder and returned to the wall.
"Ling Wei, do you recognize that it is your master?" Poplar asked.
"Sister Bai, that person's eyes can't see anywhere, I was only a few years old when I followed the master. I'm really not sure if that person is my master or not. It's just that cultivating poisonous weeds seems to be my master's technique. Ling Wei said truthfully.
"Your master has been missing for more than ten years, even if you remember her when you meet, she may not remember you. Maybe you can't remember each other. ”
As he spoke, a spicy smell wafted from the wall in the night breeze. The smell is not very strong, but it also makes people's throats uncomfortable.
"Sister Bai, brother-in-law of the prince. The people inside the wall are refining poison. I've got the antidote here, let's eat it quickly. I'm afraid the man found us when he was mowing the grass just now. This is an ordinary poison, although it will not kill people, but we will expose the target ourselves. Ling Wei also took out the antidote as she spoke, only to find that Bai Yang and Xiaoyao Wang had already taken an antidote pill. I didn't have time to ask, so I hurriedly swallowed the powder in my hand and put it into my stomach. What are you trying to say? Poplar and King Loose coughed. Then he picked up Ling Wei and left the lurking place.
"Sister Bai, brother-in-law of the prince. Why cough exposure targets? ”
"Silly boy, we've already been discovered by the other party if we can't make a sound. Coughing is a normal reaction, but it is more troublesome if you don't make a sound. Don't you understand such a simple truth? Poplar reminded.
"That's right, speaking out shows that we don't understand drugs, and if we don't make a sound, we will be more suspicious and guarded by the people inside. I'm so inexperienced, why didn't I think of this? So are we going to go ahead now? ”
"Of course I have to go back, I can't enter the palace tonight. Keep going and find a vantage point to observe the directions inside. "Poplar decided.
The three of them walked forward a few dozen meters, climbed to a big tree, and crouched on the branches to look inside the palace.
"Lord Wang, how does the palace closest to the Cold Palace look like Fengyi Palace?"
"Yang'er, it's really Fengyi Palace, and a little farther away is the Emperor's Palace. This is also a continuation of many years ago. It is said that the feng shui here is the best, although it is not the central point of the palace. But the emperors and queens of the past generations had no intention of moving. ”
"In this way, the person just now is likely to be the Poison Venerable. The queen kept her under her nose so that she could communicate with each other and keep an eye on her. As for the contact with the emperor, I'm afraid it will depend on the poisonous guards. "The King of Joy can definitely say that.
"How did you get in touch with your queen? Could it be that my master is married to your emperor? ”
"Miss Ling Wei, these are still our analysis and speculation. The specifics can only wait until you see your master, or coerce the queen to say it. ”
"Things are getting more and more complicated. Even if your analysis and guesses are correct, since the master has been beaten into the cold palace, why doesn't she leave here? Has she forgotten all of us apprentices? He even forgot that he was a native of Nanchuan in the Xiling Continent. Ling Wei was a little sad.
"Miss Ling Wei, maybe there are reasons that we don't know about, forcing your master to leave here."
"And what is the reason?"
