Chapter 125: The Poison King Changes
How to get past nowhere?
Mu Junwu raised his eyebrows in surprise, and immediately looked up to the top, and sure enough, there was a boulder hanging at the top of this attic.
Mu Junwu followed the stone to find the rope and mechanism to hang on, and then he shook his head helplessly, and had to give up the idea of entering the stone gate—he could use the mechanism to connect to this path, but who knows how big the movement was? Before he was sure, he had to explore elsewhere first.
At that moment, Mu Junwu went down to the bottom floor and was about to sink into the cobwebs of the bookshelf, the door of the pavilion opened with a "squeak", and an old man with a hunched waist walked in slowly with two books in his hand.
The old man who came in was Tang Xiu, who was responsible for sorting out and repairing tens of thousands of books and volumes here.
When Mu Junwu heard the movement, he naturally did not move, but carefully observed Tang Xiu's actions by covering himself on the bookshelf to see how he put the books and took the books.
He thought that Tang Xiu would leave after putting down the book, but after Tang Xiu took out a new book, he leaned in front of the similar candlestick and flipped through it.
Mu Junwu thought about it for a while, quietly approached Tang Xiu, raised his hand and slammed it on his neck.
Tang Xiu fainted in Mu Junwu's arms, and after Mu Junwu gently put him down on the chair on the side, he immediately searched for books related to poison on the bookshelves in the pavilion.
Turning to a book of soldiers, Mu Junwu turned around and changed to a bookshelf.
Flipping to a volume of array diagrams, Mu Junwu swept it and directly changed a column of bookshelves to look through.
In this way, after Mu Junwu quickly searched for a few bookshelves, he walked to a bookshelf in the outermost corner of the entire spider web.
This bookshelf suddenly looked very old, with a thin layer of dust, and a few sporadic books, which was quite deserted and desolate, making it difficult for people to have a desire to get close.
But Mu Junwu noticed in a blink of an eye that the carvings on the bookshelf were rare gluttonous patterns, and he stepped forward curiously.
Gluttony, originally a greedy beast, the appearance of this ornament in addition to the meaning of warning, more of a fear of divine power, royal power.
In such a place full of books, it is naturally the most special compared to other ordinary bookshelves.
Mu Junwu cautiously stepped forward, flipped through a few books on them, and found that they were all descriptions of herbs, and there was no secret book at all.
Disappointed, he felt unwilling, squatted down to look at the bottom of the bookshelf, and actually saw two rolls of bamboo slips in the corners.
Mu Junwu carefully pulled out a roll to look at, but as soon as he opened it, he didn't know if the braided rope had already rotted, or if the inside was already broken, and it was actually crackling!
Mu Junwu quickly protected it in time to avoid the complete fall off of the bamboo slips, but some of them were still scattered on the ground.
No way, Mu Junwu could only carefully put the bamboo slips he was holding in the gap of the bookshelf first, and then picked up the scattered bamboo slips on the ground and began to restore them.
The content of the bamboo slips is messy, it is not easy to restore it, and it is also thanks to Mu Junwu's poisonous eyes, and he roughly scanned a few bamboo slips in his hand, and faintly had a clue and began to restore and piece together.
He read while spelling nature, but he paused as he spelled out, because the content on the several bamboo slips in his hand was somewhat special.
"The Poison King Change?" Mu Junwu felt faintly uneasy, and looked at the other bamboo slip in his hand: "There are poisons everywhere, and there is no life."
Hey, what is this about?
Mu Junwu thought about it, first quickly scanned the content of the remaining bamboo slips, and then picked up all the bamboo slips that had not yet been picked up and quickly pieced together the contents.
This bamboo slip is about too old and has been lost, Mu Junwu fought for a while, and knew that some of it had been lost, but only the remaining part of the recorded content was enough to make him, a well-informed person who read poetry and books, secretly surprised.
The content of this bamboo slip is that there was once a master of the Tang Sect who had a terrible situation of "Poison King Change", which caused a terrible scene of poisonous corpses all over the ground and no life, so that the entire sect of the Tang Sect had to move away from the old site, settle down again, and start all over again.
However, there is no mention of what this poisonous king change is and how it happened, just emphasizing back and forth what words like "blessing and misfortune depend on each other, prosperity and decline border", "the will of heaven, life and death".
Although Mu Junwu didn't find the answer in this volume, he only read such a confused record, and he still felt that it was still a little interesting.
At that moment, he carefully recycled and wrapped the bamboo slips, but he didn't want to see a thin line on the innermost bamboo slip, which seemed to be a small character drawn with the tip of a needle.
"The method of overcoming poison has been obtained, which can overcome ten thousand poisons and make the king of antidote"
There was no head, no tail, and the fourteen words were very abrupt, which made Mu Junwu feel strange, and he immediately moved the candle flame to the bamboo slips, and carefully examined them to find similar scratches, but there were no scratches on the other bamboo slips.
Unable to find it, Mu Junwu sighed, and had to carefully put away the bamboo slips and put them back, and then he was unwilling to go and get another roll of bamboo slips.
Although I don't know what the method of defeating poison is, since it is recorded, there must be one, and it can cure ten thousand poisons......
Mu Junwu was secretly saying in his heart, but at this time, there was a sound of breaking wind behind him, and subconsciously he dodged sideways, and a dart flew by his neck, just cutting out the candle flame on the bookshelf.
Mu Junwu quickly turned around, but he couldn't see the person who made the shot, and then he had an idea, grabbed two books nearby and threw them at the remaining two candles.
The candle flame was extinguished, and it was pitch black inside the pavilion, which attracted the attention of the guards outside the pavilion, who immediately rushed in with a shout.
When the lights and candles in the pavilion were lit again, except for the two books scattered in front of the lamps and candles and the unconscious Tang Xiu, the pavilion was already empty.
Even the darts that had been extinguished were gone.
"Pavilion Master! Pavilion Master! After the disciple on duty called a few times, Tang Xiu woke up slowly.
"Huh? You guys, you are ......"
"Pavilion Master, someone has broken into the pavilion!"
Tang Xiu was shocked when he heard this, and immediately grabbed one of the disciples, took off the token hanging from his waist and put it in his hand.
"Hurry up and go to the Soul Snatcher Room and give this order to Grandma! Also, if someone breaks into the cabinet, don't make a noise! ”
"Yes."
When this disciple rushed out of the Secret Pavilion with the token and went to the Soul Snatcher Room, Mu Junwu had already fled back to the organ room, he quickly took off his clothes, hung up his sweat towel, and got into the bed.
He lay there, letting himself breathe soothingly and steadily, pretending to be asleep, his ears picking up the sounds around him, trying to discern if he had been tracked.
Night, quiet.
The insects sang a cappella, and no one followed him.
But despite this, Mu Junwu's heart was not at peace, because he knew that his poisoning was definitely not a coincidence!
It's a trap!
This was a deliberate attempt to lead me to investigate, just in time for the assassination...... It seems that I have been targeted for a long time!
