Chapter Thirty-Eight: Wishing the Night

() "Since then, the academy has begun to set up a lot of things for the west."

Lin Xi smiled self-deprecatingly in his heart, and it was only at this time that he understood why An Keyi said goodbye to him early and left the academy

The more this happened, the more he felt that he was still a very small fish in the great river

"In case we all fall for the 'quicksand', teacher, how many people can be saved by the antidote in your hand?" Lin Xi's god became serious, and he looked at An Keyi seriously and asked

An Keyi stretched out his hand: "Three"

Looking at An Keyi's three jade-like fingers, Lin Xi didn't feel half charming, and thought with a wry smile, this antidote is really very little

"Teacher, since you can smell some of the scents of sand scorpion venom, can't you use it to determine where the person who smelled the moon is in the city?" Bian Linghan couldn't help but ask

An Keyi shook his head, "The smell of the 'tarsus' refined with sand scorpion venom is also extremely light, and it can only be judged by the slightly green sèze, and I can only detect it when I get to the front... I noticed the 'tarsus' configuration, but it was just in an ordinary empty room by the river."

"In other words, the smell of sand scorpion venom is quite special, and you can feel it, teacher, but this sand scorpion venom has already completed the refining of 'tarsal bones'" Lin Xi looked at An Keyi and said: "In other words, the other party may do it at any time."

"'Tarsus' and 'Quicksand', the two poisons that can only be refined by Gongsun Quan" An Keyi snorted lightly and said in a flat voice: "In the rest of the past month, the academy has determined that Gongsun Quan is in this area, maybe Guiyun Province is in charge of him, but he has been secretly operating outside, and the academy doesn't know what he looks like... There are also some poisons that he has refined that will flow out from here to other places in Yunqin to remove the sand scorpion venom There is a unique rancid smell, but in the case of ventilation, as long as it takes four hours, it is impossible for me to feel it, so Gongsun Quan must have refined some poison within four hours."

Lin Xi thought for a while and said, "When the two groups of us meet together, we can solve the problem with one hand... Gongsun Quan, who is under the command of General Wenren, is also very lazy, but if we are all careful not to go out and eat outside, it is not good {/// Book friend upload}"

An Keyi looked at Lin Xi seriously and asked, "Why?"

"When it comes to poisoning and detoxifying, no matter how powerful Gongsun Quan is, how can he compare to the teacher, otherwise the academy will not send you out to deal with him" Lin Xi looked at An Keyi and said: "But it is always more difficult to guard than to plot, and the academy must want the teacher to pull out this nail and never suffer in the future... Because such a cultivator who can refine poison has more influence on this battle in the west than a holy master, no one knows how many cultivators will die due to the poison flowing out of his hands, if he thinks that we are obviously guarded and will not take action... Or the number of shots is too small, presumably you can't find him, teacher, after all, we don't even know what he looks like... Maybe he's just walked right under our noses, and we don't know."

An Keyi's eyebrows furrowed slightly, she knew that what Lin Xi said made sense, but how to find out Gongsun Quan, she couldn't think of any good way, after thinking for a while, she still looked at Lin Xi and shook her head, and said, "Do you want to use bait to lure Gongsun Quan out?" Since he hasn't even revealed his appearance and physical characteristics over the years, it shows that he is an extremely cautious and life-saving person, a drug master like him can poison in many ways, even if he doesn't succeed, he won't show up, and if he finds out that someone like me exists, I'm afraid he will disappear, or leave directly."

Gao Yanan, Bian Linghan and the others nodded silently

Even if it is a sword master or a windranger like Tong Wei to kill someone, there are always some traces of flying swords and arrows, and some clues can always be seen when they do it, but using poison to kill people, with the methods of people like Gongsun Quan, no one knows when it was ordered, and it is impossible to find a cautious poisoner who doesn't know the face at all from the hundreds of thousands of people in the city

Lin Xi also frowned deeply, but unlike Gao Yanan and the others, he always felt that there was an encore, and the other party was already ready to do something to them, and his special ability had not been used today, there should always be a way to find out this person

How can we find out this unknown face, it may be an innkeeper, it may be a cook, it may be a beggar passing by, it may be an old man, it may be a young man, it may even be a woman's Gongsun Quan?

Lin Xi thought hard, and for a moment the whole room fell silent

......

......

In the northeast corner of Hou Que City, there is a famous restaurant called Xingxing Building

Built with the wisdom of some of the most famous carpenters in Hou Que City, the Tower is nine floors high, but all of them are built in the form of wood riveting, without a single nail, which is breathtaking

At this moment, in a private room on the ninth floor, there was a middle-aged thin scribe with a very clean beard drinking alone in front of a few jīng side dishes, his eyes were not looking at the stars in the sky, but at the pine and cypress residence in the middle of the night in the distance

Except for his cheekbones that are particularly prominent because of his thinness, his face is not much different from that of most of the locals of Houque City, very ordinary, but his fingernails are a little too thick, and they are a little shrunken and curly, which makes his ten fingers look a little like dove claws, which suddenly makes the aura on his body a little mysterious and yīnsen

Footsteps sounded at the door of the room, followed by a knock

"Come in," the middle-aged scribe tapped his fingers lightly on the wine glass in his hand, and said indifferently

A pot of star picking's signature vegetables, sour bamboo shoots and big fish were sent in

After stretching out his chopsticks and sandwiching a piece of the most tender fisheye meat, and slowly chewing and eating a piece of delicious sour yellow bamboo shoots, the middle-aged scribe took out a white sè handkerchief, wiped it on the corner of his mouth, and then let go of his hand, letting this white sè silk handkerchief fall down and float in the thick and slightly drunk night sè of Hou Que City

In a night market in the distance, there is a small stall selling bamboo utensils, and the stall owner is a middle-aged man in his forties

His eyes had been looking at the window of the Star Picking Tower, consciously or unconsciously, and no one else saw the soft white silk handkerchief floating in the air, but he saw it

Then he silently put away the stall that was not much of a crowd and walked towards an alley

On the Star Picking Tower, the middle-aged thin scribe turned the fish over, picked out another piece of the most tender fish eye meat, and put a piece of sour yellow bamboo shoots in his mouth to chew, and then he put down his chopsticks, and seemed to have no interest in this extremely expensive signature dish of the Star Picking Building, so extravagant that he just wanted to eat the two small pieces of meat and two small pieces of sour bamboo shoots in this whole pot of vegetables

He didn't drink any more, just took a cup of tea and rinsed his mouth

Then he suddenly showed a satisfied and sarcastic look, because there was no wine companion present, he raised his head slightly, looked at the stars in the sky, and whispered to himself, "Encore... Naturally, my poisoning and detoxification skills can't be compared to you, the most powerful figure in the young generation of the Imperial Medicine Department of Qingluan Academy, but this is a war, not a fair competition, how can you take advantage of me?"

"Although your Qingluan Academy is powerful, it is the same as the Yunqin Empire, the bigger it is, the easier it is to have traitors... I'm different, in order to fight you, all the people who reveal my identity in the slightest have been killed by me, so I know that you and the people you escort are inside, but you can't know who I am, and you don't even know that I know that there are characters like you in this team."

"Right now, I can be as unscrupulous as I am, poisoning and killing all of you at will, but you can't be as unscrupulous as I am... And you don't know that I have an apprentice who can do these things for me, so from the very beginning, it is impossible for Qingluan Academy and you to defeat me, and I am invincible."

"Wishing this night"

The middle-aged thin scribe had already rinsed his mouth and stopped drinking, but after muttering a few words to himself, there was some enthusiasm and fanatical expression in his eyes, and he drank another glass of wine, and then poured a glass of wine from the night sky towards the direction of Songbaiju, and said softly: "This night must be very jīngcai"

"We Will Win"

He bowed slightly to the western sky, to the place where the man he had served and respected, and said in his heart a strange mixture of solemnity and fanaticism

The wine turned into wine and fluttered out on the eaves of the Star Picking Tower

The hustle and bustle before noon in Hou Que City has just begun

In the east corner of the city, there was a lantern called Kong Ming Lantern in the world before Lin Xi, and something called the Flying Fire Lantern in this world floated up and flew into the sky

Many people in Hou Que City discovered that the lampshade of this flying fire lamp turned out to be a rare turquoise sè, shining with strange phosphorescence in the night sky, and some people couldn't help but point out in surprise
