Chapter 148: Peeling the skin and scraping the meat
Tak City, located in the southernmost part of Tardan, is one of the most important strategic military points in Tardan, and for a long time, the inventory of entering the city here has been very strict, especially for those who are suspected of being the subjects of the Great Wei, they are all refused to enter here.
Today, however, it was a little different here, and a small caravan of less than ten people swaggered into the city without going through any formalities, which naturally attracted the attention of the people around it.
"Oh my God, who are these people, why are they so bullish, the guards let them in before they checked."
"yes, not only did they not search, but they also smiled!"
"You guys are stupid, take a good look at the flag on the carriage."
"Flags? Huitong Commercial Bank! β
"It turned out to be Hall Master Mo...
Someone among the people watching the excitement happened to know the background of the caravan, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was glared at by a chubby guy in the caravan, and quickly closed his mouth.
"A few heroes, not far from the front is the post station of our Chamber of Commerce, and these goods are stored there first. The road on the right hand leads to the City Council Hall and the City Lord's Palace, and on the left hand side is the branch hall of the Northern League in Tucker City. If you're looking for a place to rest, follow this road all the way to the city's largest inn, 'Jing Yaju', where the service is absolutely top-notch. After glaring at the passers-by, the fat guy immediately changed his smiling face and said to a few people around him with some flattery.
This caravan was naturally the one kidnapped by Lei Tianyi and Lu Ming, and under the cover of the fat steward, they pretended to be the entourage of the caravan and smoothly blended into the city.
"Where does that holy woman live? Did Granny Kim stay with her? Who else is around him? "The purpose of Lei Tianyi's visit this time is to find the saintess who is good at poisoning, so he attaches great importance to this information.
"Daxia, I've been away from here for more than half a month, and I've only heard about the news before, and I still need to go back and inquire about the specific situation." The fat steward replied honestly.
"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you're thinking, let you go back now, I'm afraid what you want to do most is to report us."
"No, no, the little ones don't dare." As if he was told the central matter, the fat steward was startled after hearing it, and waved his hand again and again.
"Fatty, come here."
At this time, Lu Ming on the side suddenly beckoned to him, and the fat steward had just taken two steps closer when he heard the sound, but he was unexpectedly stepped on by Lu Ming
"Ah!!γγγγ Uh-huh. The fat steward's screams attracted the curiosity of passers-by, but Lu Ming's eyes were quick, and he covered his mouth, and at the same time, a black pill in his palm was forcibly stuffed in.
"You... What did you give me to eat? Barely had time to swallow the pill as it slid down his throat and into his stomach, which made the fat steward's heart chuckle.
"Hey, hey!" Lu Ming showed a rather evil smile at this time, and said: "This is a good thing, it is a 'peeling and scraping meatball' that I refined with seven kinds of poisonous herbs and seven kinds of poisonous insects, ordinary people will gradually numb their limbs after eating it, and their bodies will become extremely itchy, and they need to keep scratching with their hands." But after the limbs are completely numb, they can't stop itching by themselves, but they have to find a place to rub everywhere until the skin of the rub is opened. In the end, the whole body can't move, but it's still itchy and unbearable, so I can only rely on others to brush my body with an iron brush. β
Lu Ming explained the medicinal properties of the poison while looking at the fat steward's expression, and when he saw the fear in the other party's eyes, he asked while the iron was hot: "Do you know what will become of the brush in the end?" β
"Whew... What it looks like ... β
"In the end, all the skin and flesh on the body were brushed off layer by layer by the iron brush, leaving only the internal organs and bones inside, which is definitely a real peeling and scraping of meat!"
"How... How could there be such an evil thing?,Thisγγ It's also too toxic. The fat steward's voice was already a little trembling, but he still couldn't believe it.
"You don't believe it? Okay, then you try, now raise your legs as hard as you can, and then stomp the ground. Looking at the fat head of the fat steward, Lu Ming suddenly thought of a once famous whole-person method on the earth.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! β
The fat steward was really obedient enough, his right leg was full and stomped to the ground, and as soon as it was over, Lu Ming asked, "Is it numb!" Do you have numb legs? β
"Hemp. It's numb."
"This proves that the effect of the medicine has started to work, your limbs have begun to numb, and it is estimated that by the evening your body will start to itch. Friendly reminder to you, if you really can't stand it, you can commit suicide, I guarantee that this medicine will not be of any use to the dead! β
"Grandpa, grandpa, don't!" The fat steward's last psychological defense line collapsed, and he knelt down in front of Lu Ming on the street, hugged Lu Ming's thigh and cried: "Grandpa save me, I will agree to whatever you say!! I don't want to die like this. β
Being held like this by a man, Lu Ming was also a little embarrassed, and hurriedly reprimanded: "What do you look like, stand up quickly!" As long as you are obedient, we will naturally let you go in the end. β
As soon as he said that he wanted to be obedient, the fat steward immediately stood up, looked at Lu Ming with tears in his eyes, and waited for the dispatch. Lu Ming stretched out his finger and pointed at Lei Tianyi and said, "Did you listen to the words that our master just asked?" β
"I understand, I'm going back to find out the news of the Holy Maiden, and I'll definitely send it to the masters as soon as possible."
"Well, that's good. It's like it. Lu Ming has always liked people who cooperate like this, and he continued: "In addition, you can help me inquire about two more people, one is named Wang Fugui, about forty years old, his hair is shorter than your local people, he looks very oily and neat, he likes to wear a big wrench and a gold ring on his hand, and his accent is very heavy." There is also a young girl named Wu Keke, who is white and clean, looks very delicate, and has a very sweet voice, but usually as soon as she is excited, she will stutter when she speaks. β
"Don't worry, sir, as long as these two people are in our territory in Tatan, I have the confidence to find them. Will they all be killed, or will they be tied up for you? β
"it!" As soon as Lu Ming heard this, he immediately slapped the fat steward on the head and said, "The two of them, if you can bring them to me, bring them over, don't use force if you can't bring them, protect them, we will look for them." β
"Understood, master, don't worry, I'll do it right away, I can inquire about the information of these three people before the sun goes down." The fat steward can't help it, if there is no news before the evening, I'm afraid Lu Ming will not give the antidote, so this guarantee ticket has to be played.
However, Lu Ming was still a little uneasy, and warned: "Let me tell you, don't think about finding someone to detoxify, the types of these seven poisonous insects and poisonous weeds, as well as the proportion of their concoction, are only known to me, even your golden granny can't guess it, once the detoxification fails, the effect of the medicine will be fully exerted in an instant, and it will be difficult to save the immortals at that time." So you only have one way now, which is to cooperate with us obediently, and when you hear the news, you will meet at the Jingyaju Inn you mentioned before, and I will naturally give you half of the antidote at that time. β
Actually, this is completely superfluous, as a fat man, where did he invite Granny Jin to detoxify him, this guy's only wish is to quickly inquire about the whereabouts of those three people, so as to exchange for an antidote. Therefore, after Lu Ming finished his order, he ran away without looking back, and even the goods he transported fell on the street.
