Chapter 166: Cutting the Weeds and Eradicating the Roots?
Not long after Chen Feng returned to the hotel, Luo Wanli, who was full of alcohol, also hurried back.
It can be seen that Luo Wanli really drank a lot of alcohol when he went to see his friends today, but with his strength, even if he drank three or five catties of liquor, it would not have much impact.
"Have you found out the identities of those who attacked my medical hall?" asked Chen Feng.
"Not yet, but I think it has something to do with my brother's death. Luo Wan said solemnly.
"What's going on?" Chen Feng wondered.
"I originally had a younger brother with excellent cultivation qualifications, but his temperament was very impetuous, and he couldn't settle down to cultivate at all and didn't want to do business with me. ”
Luo Wanli sighed and said: "At that time, he was like a second ancestor, relying on the money in his family, he traveled the mountains and rivers every day, attracting bees and butterflies, because my parents protected him, and I, the eldest brother, couldn't talk about him." ”
"Until fourteen years ago, he suddenly disappeared for more than a year, at that time my family tried their best to find no trace of him, at that time my parents were so anxious that they thought he was dead, but he suddenly came back, and also brought back a child, that is, Wen Xin. ”
"For this, I was angry and beat him up and asked him what was going on with the child, but he didn't say anything, and the whole person seemed to have lost his soul. ”
"What happened later?" Chen Feng asked curiously.
"Although I was angry, it's always a good thing that people are back, I wanted him to help me manage the company's business and take care of it, but I didn't expect him to disappear again after a few days at home. Speaking of this, Luo Wanli's eyes were already red.
"Where did he go?" Chen Feng asked.
"I don't know, I haven't seen him since, I don't even know if he's dead or alive. At that time, my family was in a mess, my parents couldn't afford to be sick, and they died every six months, I saw Wen Xin's poor child, so I took her home to raise her. Luo Wanli said.
"In that case, how can you be sure that he is dead?" asked Chen Feng puzzled.
"After he left, I found a suicide note he left, saying that from now on, he should be considered dead, don't look for him again, and let me take good care of Wen Xin. Luo Wanli said: "How could I not look for him, but there is a vast sea of people, where can I find him." ”
"Later, I pondered carefully, and the more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, my brother has always been a character who is not afraid of heaven and earth, if it weren't for the big trouble, he wouldn't be like this, and he must be afraid of implicating the family when he leaves. ”
Luo Wanli said: "In order to find him, I spend four or five million every year to hire people to find his traces, although I have never found him, but I found out that he had been to the southwest." ”
"Could it be that you suspect that he has provoked some sect?" Chen Feng asked.
"I didn't think about it like that before, but after the revival of the aura of heaven and earth, I had my own strength, so I thought of this stubble. Besides, you also said that my niece is poisoned, and looking at the world, except for the cultivators in the southwest who are good at using strange poisons, there are not many cultivators who are proficient in this way. Luo Wanli said.
"But have you ever thought that even if your brother really died at the hands of someone from a certain sect in the southwest, why would they poison your niece?" Chen Feng said.
"Maybe it's to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. Luo Wanli said with a gloomy face.
"Your brother has disappeared for more than ten years, even if those sects really want to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, they don't have to wait until now, besides, if they really want to kill people, there are methods, simple and direct, why use poison, and still use so many poisons at the same time. Chen Feng questioned.
"Then why do you say this?" Luo Wanli was stopped by Chen Feng and asked in turn.
"I can't figure it out for a while, but I always feel that this matter is not just as simple as killing your niece, there are many kinds of poison in your niece's body, and it must take a lot of time and energy to make her have a strange poison in her body but not die immediately, if there is no important purpose, who would do it?" Chen Feng said his judgment.
"Do you think the murderer who poisoned my niece will target us?" Luo Wanli said and subconsciously glanced around, as if he was worried that someone would suddenly break through the door and rush in to kill.
"Maybe, maybe not. In any case, it doesn't make much difference to me, since I have received a patient, I will do everything I can to cure it, and whoever dares to stop me from treating the sick and saving people before that is my enemy is my enemy. Chen Feng said lightly. However, there is a sense of firmness and coldness in the words.
"Ding-dong. Suddenly, Chen Feng's mobile phone rang, prompting >
"Boss, after my sleepless and unremitting search, I finally heard the news of the Golden Bat Sand, Swallowtail Grass, and Firetail Scorpion from a cultivator. ”
"I took a little time to contact the owner of the goods, the other party did not want to sell at first, and then after my soft grinding and hard bubbles, he finally agreed to it, tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, Yunjinshan market face-to-face transaction, the other party asked for three million cash. ”
In addition to the two voice messages, the medicine jar also sent a few pictures, which were the three medicinal materials that Chen Feng urgently needed.
"Okay, I'll be there tomorrow at eight o'clock. Chen Feng replied.
"At this time, it's not easy to raise three million in cash. Luo Wanli, who also heard the voice message of the medicine jar, frowned.
"It's not easy, it's not that it can't be done, right?" Chen Feng smiled.
"That's natural, with my thin face, let alone three million, even if it's ten million, I can find it, but I can't help but owe some favors. When Luo Wanli shook his head and smiled bitterly, he had already taken out his mobile phone and started contacting friends.
Chen Feng leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and listened to Luo Wanli's continuous search for someone to borrow money, but a sneer appeared on his face.
..............................
Unzen Gate.
Wen Shaochong was sitting cross-legged in a secret room, his hands pinching the magic technique, and he kept hitting a one-meter-high Dan furnace in front of him.
The appearance of this Dan furnace is quite strange, completely different from the traditional alchemy furnace, it looks like a crouching toad, and the runes scattered on it are like the poisonous glands on the toad's body, which looks very strange and terrifying.
However, Wen Shaochong didn't seem to be affected, his eyes looked at the faint green flames dancing in the furnace, and his expression even showed a little cold mockery from time to time.
After more than half an hour, Wen Shaochong's pinching speed suddenly accelerated, and his mouth couldn't stop chanting weird spells.
"Huhu ......" Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi surged, frantically poured into the Dan furnace in front of him, so that the faint green flame became more and more vigorous and green.
"Quack. When Wen Shaochong finally finished pinching, there was a sound like a frog croaking in the Dan furnace, and then the mouth of the furnace shaped like a toad's mouth suddenly opened, and there was a turquoise smoke spewing out of it.
Wen Shaochong seemed to have expected it, his left hand was weak, but his right hand greeted him with a turquoise vial.
The turquoise smoke seemed to be suppressed by an invisible hand, and then dragged into the vial, condensing into drops of turquoise liquid.
"That's it. Wen Shaochong smiled smugly, sealed the mouth of the bottle with a stopper that shimmered with rune light, and then walked out of the secret room with his head held high.
"Young Sect Master, several businessmen who have a relationship with us have called one after another, saying that Luo Wanli has indeed come to Yunjin Mountain, and has just borrowed a lot of money from them, with a total of more than three million. It looks like they took the bait. One of his men came over and reported.
"Good. Tomorrow, let's go to meet Luo Wanli and the helper he found. Wen Shaochong played with the delicate jade bottle in his hand, and the killing intent on his face was already as cold as ice.
..............................
At about seven o'clock in the morning the next day, people came to visit Luo Wanli one after another, and they brought along with three or five hundred thousand in cash.
For the sake of safety, Luo Wanli borrowed a total of 3.5 million cash from someone and filled a full box.
"We don't necessarily need that much money. When he got out of the taxi, Chen Feng casually picked up the heavy box and said with a smile.
"Be prepared, I have gained experience in business over the years, no matter when, as long as I have enough money in my hand, I will feel solid no matter what happens. Luo Wanli said.
"Most of today's things can't be settled by money. Chen Feng thought in his heart, but he didn't say anything.
With Chen Feng leading the way, the two quickly crossed the dead end and came to the trading market located halfway up the mountain.
"Boss, you're here, I thought it would take a long time. The medicine jar was waiting at the entrance of the market accompanied by several powerful people, and when he saw Chen Feng, he was very excited to greet him, and he directly came to a warm hug.
"Boss, be careful, I think something is not quite right with today's seller, I'm afraid there is no good intention. When he hugged Chen Feng, the medicine jar said in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Since I said I was coming, I will definitely not break my promise, let me introduce you, this is the real boss, I am just a suitcase now. Chen Feng raised the box in his hand and teased himself.
"Lead the way. When Luo Wanli heard Chen Feng say this, he cooperated very tacitly, and said directly to the people who were staring at the medicine jar.
"Please. The first person looked at Luo Wanli, and then glanced at the medicine jar with a warning look, and then led the way.
"Where did these people come from?" Chen Feng asked in a low voice.
"Ask the people of Xianmen, what you want is only for them, I heard that there is a backer behind the market here, it is not so easy to provoke, this time they asked to trade with you face-to-face, it is probably not a good thing, boss, you have to be careful." The medicine jar said with his head down.
"If you tell me this, you're not afraid that they will retaliate against you afterwards?" Chen Feng looked as usual, and was not frightened by the name of the Immortal Sect.
At the beginning, in the secret realm, he was not even afraid of the recognized big sects such as the Ten Thousand Sword Sect and the Qingyang Sect, and he would kill if he should provoke it, where would he care about asking the earth overlord of the Xianmen.
"Of course I'm afraid, but my medicine jar is a reputation for business, if I pit you this time, my brand will be smashed, how will I gain a foothold in the future?"
"Really?" Chen Feng asked, glancing at him.
"Really, but I'm not afraid they're true. At this point, the medicine jar showed an indescribable confident look on his face.
Chen Feng didn't know what he relied on, but he didn't ask any questions, after all, everyone has their own secrets to survive and don't want to be known by outsiders, Chen Feng doesn't need to be disliked.
