Witch Gate? Poison Gate?

Ling Yun is known as the Poison King, and it is impossible for her to go to the Witch Gate. Without hesitation, I pushed open the poison door and walked in.

Behind the door was a round table large enough for ten people, on which were already seated eight people dressed as warlocks, and about two dozen people stood around the table. When I entered, the people in the room didn't even look at me, their eyes were fixed on the dishes on the table.

I reached out and patted one of them, "What's going on?" ”

The man whispered: "There is only one dish on the table that is not poisonous, and whoever eats it wrong will die." If you don't eat the same, you die. ”

As soon as the man finished speaking, a bell suddenly rang on the roof, and the eight people sitting at the table invariably picked up chopsticks and sandwiched a plate of cold lotus root slices, some people stuffed them directly into their mouths, and some people ate the dishes after hesitating for a while.

Is there no single (poisonous) even (lotus)? Could it be that these people don't know how to distinguish drugs, but are just gambling on luck? Or is it the person who poisoned them deliberately exploiting their psyche?

As soon as a thought flashed through my mind, the eight people sitting at the table bled at the same time and fell to the ground.

The onlookers exclaimed in fright and retreated to the side. Before they could stand firm, a sluice gate appeared on the ground, sinking the dining table and the eight corpses, and in a few moments the ten-course table was rising again.

"Sit-"

The sudden sound frightened the people in the room at the same time, and some people gritted their teeth and sat down on the table, while others were struggling to retreat.

A man standing next to me said coldly, "You go and sit." ”

I squinted and looked the other party up and down: "I want to sit on you, I haven't seen enough!" ”

"You're looking for death!" The man drank coldly, pulled a knife out of his cuff, and stabbed me in the chest without saying a word.

"Humph!" I snorted, raised my hand and grabbed the other person's wrist, brought his palm back, twisted his arm behind me, pressed the other person's shoulder with one hand, forcibly pressed him to the chair, and immediately let go and retreated.

"I didn't think about it......" Before the man could finish speaking, a mouthful of black blood spurted out of his mouth, and he fell to the ground with a dark face.

"Sit—" Another roar came from the hall.

I looked at the remaining four empty seats, stretched out my hand to pull Xie Yuwei, and sat down with her. The two of us had just sat down, and several of the people standing on the side screamed at the same time, clutching their stomachs and rolling to the ground.

Someone screamed miserably: "Why poison? It's not our turn yet......"

The voice above the room sounded again: "Whoever does not sit three times, die!" ”

I distinctly heard a crunch in the man's stomach, and all the limbs that had been shrunk in front of me stretched out, and broken internal organs gushed out of his mouth.

His intestines are broken! I just glanced at each other when a bell rang from above the hall. Everyone picked up the chopsticks, but no one put down the chopsticks for a long time, and in the end, Xie Yuwei took away the bamboo shoots in front of him with chopsticks. I quickly followed her.

When I put the bamboo shoot in front of me, I stopped the chopsticks in the air. At the same time, everyone in the hall looked at me, and I let go of my hand and dropped my chopsticks on the floor.

Xie Yuwei was taken aback: "Li Xi, what are you doing?" Aren't you afraid of death? ”

"After eating this dish, I will really die!" I looked at Xie Yuwei with a smile and said, "Barrow, is it interesting to still play this kind of guessing game?" ”

Xie Yuwei was surprised: "What nonsense are you talking about?" ”

"I said you're Barrow!" I raised my hand and pinched Xie Yuwei's neck: "The items sold at the ghost stall should be the things you use to send souls, right?" The four major law enforcement wizards in Blood City are all doing this! ”

"You sell things to different people just to gamble on the odds. In other words, it's a bet on who will survive the battle of life and death in Blood City. As long as you occupy the husks of the living, you can use their identities to continue to power the Blood City, right? ”

Xie Yuwei's eyes, which were terrified just now, suddenly became gloomy: "Smart! When did you find out that I replaced Xie Yuwei? ”

"Ever since you kept talking nonsense to me in the torture cell." I said coldly: "Although Xie Yuwei loves to play petty, she is not stupid, and she will not be with me when it comes to life and death." You're doing too fake. Did you occupy Xie Yuwei's body after she fell unconscious? ”

Barrow nodded, "That's right! ”

I asked sharply, "Who is Xu Zhiliu?" ”

Barrow shook his head and said, "I don't know." We have long found out about Xu Zhiliu's existence, but we have never been able to figure out her identity. ”

My palm shrank suddenly: "Where do you want to take me?" What do you want to do? ”

"Wait until you can get out of this cell!" Barrow grinned suddenly, and the light in his eyes dimmed.

Ran away? I was startled, got up from my chair, and looked at Xie Yuwei again, there was no sound, and the other seven people in the hall all fell to the ground silently.

"It's broken!"

I stood up and walked back and forth a few steps before I put my hand in my mouth and gave a long whistle.

Soon after, I felt a wet sensation on my face, as if someone was licking my face with something. I slowly reached out and groped in the direction my tongue had licked it.

My eyes could clearly see that my hand was pushing into the air, but there was a hairy sensation in the palm of my hand, as if it had been pressed against the fur of some animal out of thin air.

I reached out and touched it twice, until my fingertips touched a sharp fang, and then I tentatively said, "Ribs, are you across from me?" If you're across from me, bite my hand! ”

Soon after I finished speaking, I felt a sharp pain in the back of my hand.

"Shhh ”

As soon as I finished speaking, the scene in front of me was like glass smashed by a hammer, and it exploded in an instant. Only then did I realize that I was still standing on the street when I was chasing Xie Yuwei, except for the tail wagging ribs, there was no one around, Du Miao and Xie Yuwei were all missing, and the relics stupa that I had blown up was still standing intact in the middle of the blood city.

I was at a loss when I heard someone say on the stupa of the relic, "Friend, how about you come up and have a drink?" ”

"Good!"

When I walked up to the stupa, the first thing I saw was a scholar in a white Confucian robe. The other party's temperament is as elegant as a fairy, but his face is extremely old, not only his face is wrinkled, but his white hair is also extremely dry, except for a pair of eyes, he can't see the slightest anger, but his eyes are dark, which makes people feel that his age is not too big.

What's even more strange is that the scholar is holding a skeleton in a red dress in his arms. Although the skeleton was devoid of flesh and blood, it made people feel alive. Especially the long black hair hanging down from the skull's head is enough to make many women jealous.

When the scholar saw me walk in, he gently leaned the skeleton on his lap, stretched out his hand and said, "Please take a seat!" ”

I sat cross-legged across from the scholar before he picked up the flask on the table and poured out a glass of viscous and red liquid, if it weren't for the smell of wine wafting in the liquid, I would even think he had poured me a glass of human blood: "I have been preparing this cup of hero's blood for nearly thirty years, and today someone can finally drink it." Please—"

I raised my glass and greeted each other with a slight agreement, raised my head and drank it all. After the hero's blood was in my belly, I only felt like someone had lit a fire in my abdomen, and the heat was unbearable and the pain was severe.

I endured the sharp pain in my stomach and asked in a deep voice, "Your Excellency is the Lord of the Blood City?" ”

"Sort of!" The scholar said vaguely: "You may have heard my name." I am the demon fox Chu Qingqiu! ”

"Chu Qingqiu!" I gasped.

Tan Yue admires Chu Qingqiu very much, and once told me a lot of rumors and anecdotes about Chu Qingqiu. Although Tan Yue didn't know why Chu Qingqiu suddenly disappeared, I couldn't believe it anyway, the old scholar in front of me who was about to die was the legendary Chu Qingqiu who was dressed in white and was as chic as a fairy.

Chu Qingqiu smiled bitterly: "Don't believe I'm Chu Qingqiu? Sometimes, I can't believe it myself. Ever since I failed against the sky, I've become what I am now. However, it's better than the one that broke the sky. ”
