Chapter 62: Powder Sac, Arriving at the Trial Ground [Waiting for the Water Army]

The letter was written on fine jade paper.

The content is also very simple.

"Brother Dajian:

Yesterday's hospitality was not good, there were many slack, I specially presented three Yan family special powder sacs, I apologize, the black sac must hold your breath and stay away after being scattered, and the symptoms of soft muscles will appear after inhalation, and the effect can be maintained for more than an hour.

The white sac is a hidden fragrance that can hide its own smell, and it is true, and it lasts for about three hours.

The green sac is a sobering fragrance, smelling it can boost the spirit, but it should not be used frequently, and the effect can last for two hours.

In addition, there are several corresponding antidotes, please pay attention.

I wish the martial arts to improve.

Friend: Yan Qihao"

……

After reading the letter, Zong Xian suddenly felt a little strange.

The letter was ostensibly intended to convey an apology for the poor hospitality and to give an apology.

But he saw a hint of goodbye in it, as if he would never see each other again.

He thought about it, but didn't come up with a reason, so he shook his head and threw the letter paper into the stove to destroy it, and then studied the three powder sacs.

Each sac is about the size of a fish bubble, tough and slightly transparent, and looks like it is made of something like a sheep's belly intestine, and it is extremely well sealed and does not leak water.

Different powder sacs are smeared with a little different color, which corresponds to the three types of "black, white, and blue" mentioned in the letter.

Each sac is also equipped with a small gourd porcelain bottle, which contains an antidote the size of a mung bean to relieve the effect of the powder in case of an emergency.

Either way, this gift might come in handy.

As for Yan Qihao, he can only find a chance to talk about it after he returns from the trial.

From yesterday's chat, he already knew that the Yan family's industries were mainly rouge gouache, pharmacies, and medical centers.

Gouache involves the knowledge of powder mixing and material grinding.

Needless to say, medicine and medicine should be practiced.

Combining the two, Zong Xian was not surprised that the Yan family could mix poisonous powder with different effects.

After a moment's sigh, he recalled the effects of the powder sacs in his mind, and then carefully put them away in case he needed them.

In a blink of an eye, it was noon, and Qi Shi finally returned.

He didn't say anything more, but had a meal with everyone first, as usual.

It wasn't until after the meal that he took Zong Xian away alone.

There was already a carriage waiting at the door, and Qi Shi walked with him to Anping Wharf to prepare to board the ship.

In the carriage, Master Qi had something else to give him, and at the same time a few words to advise.

"Ah Xian, this is the leather armor made of the skin of the four-eyed bull."

"The actual defensive effect is equivalent to more than three pieces of ordinary cooked cowhide armor!"

"In particular, the defense against arrows and hidden weapons is better, but it is a little weaker in the face of blunt blows."

Qi Shi took out a sleeveless black cowhide armor and handed it to Zong Xian.

He took the leather armor and nodded firmly.

This cowhide armor has the defense ability of almost the four-eyed brute bull itself, but because it lacks a shock-absorbing fat layer, it has a poor defense against blunt damage, and a better defense against stabbing and ranged attacks.

Ordinary hardwood bows probably can't penetrate effectively.

Of course, if Zong Xian encountered the black iron arrow shot by the assassin of Nankai Wu that day, then this leather armor would not be enough!

In any case, this was Master Qi's intention, which brought him an extra sense of security.

Zong Xian changed into a cowhide armor on the spot, and put on an ordinary short cloth coat outside.

"When you get on the boat, someone will ask you to blindfold, don't resist, this is the process and rules of the Magnolia Club."

"Most of the areas where the trials are located are unstable, even if you walk on the road, you may encounter danger, don't trust anyone easily!"

"A lot of times, plain appearances and identities are just vicious disguises."

"In addition, you can only bring a small amount of your own food, and most of the time you have to figure it out yourself."

"After arriving at the trial site, they will tell you the meeting point, three months after the trial began, someone will pick you up at the meeting point with the Magnolia emblem and wait for you for three days.

"In the end, no matter how much trouble you cause in the trial ground, as long as you leave with the receiver alive, someone will naturally deal with it in the future, and there is no need for any burden."

Master Qi explained the precautions, and his eyes were sincere, as if he was telling a child who was about to go out.

This situation moved Zong Xian's heart, and the corners of his eyes were a little sour.

With a sound of admonition and explanation, the carriage came to the port of Anping Wharf.

A merchant ship was already waiting at the port, and there was an old man in black waiting to answer the ship.

……

Two hours later, Zong Xian was in the cabin.

He was blindfolded, and there were two indifferent guys around him who were in charge of guiding him to solve problems such as eating, washing, and serving, which was quite rigid, but it also proved that this trial was indeed arranged by the Magnolia Society.

In addition, he also figured out the original meaning of the trial and some of the purpose of the Magnolia Society.

This organization, called the Magnolia Society, pursues the slogan of saving the world with force.

It is a martial arts organization formed by like-minded warriors from all walks of life, and has a strong and well-established violent organization.

Master Qi is the middle-level backbone of the guild, and the real martial arts cultivation is not the internal strength period he said before, but the grandmaster of the transformation period of the Eight Classics!

You must know that it is not only someone in his sect who can hide clumsy, in fact, martial artists are generally good at hiding clumsy, and rarely directly spread out the hole cards, even if Zong Xian knows the news that Qi Shi has the realm of the transformation period, he can't be sure if there are other hidden parts.

These were revealed by the old man who led him to the boat, and he was instructed by Master Qi behind his back.

Therefore, it can also explain why Qi Shi has always been able to maintain a light wind in the face of the changes in the Bei'an County Government, and there is naturally no need to worry about having strength.

Inland navigation is very stable, with only occasional ups and downs.

Every other hour he could hear the trumpets and singing of the boatmen on the lower decks.

During this period, Zong Xian also tried to peek, but was immediately discovered by the two people guarding beside him.

They gave a stern warning, which made Zong Xian dispel the idea of peeking.

Under such circumstances, two days passed before I knew it.

At this time, Zong Xian's concept of time has become a little blurred.

He only knew that the boat seemed to be on the shore, and with the support of the two of them, he first got into a carriage, and half a day later changed to an ox cart, until in the last few hours, he even turned into a strong man carrying him up the mountain.

He was vaguely aware of these changes.

When his blindfold was removed, it was already three days later.

After such a toss, he finally reached his destination.

After a brief adjustment to the light, the first thing that catches my eye is a secluded cabin in the woods.

Several men in black cloaks stood in front of him, as if they had something to say!
