Chapter 62 The Poisonous Old Ghost Uses Poison Schemes, and the Witty Witch Offers Wisdom
Listening to Zhongli's old ghost's words, He Pingzhang became interested, and said with a joking smile: "Oh? Zhongli, who has always been proud and conceited, and the self-proclaimed upright old ghost actually uses stratagems? ”
Although the old ghost Zhongli was nameless in his heart, he endured it on the surface, and snorted: "You are not a good thing, do you want my plan, give me a happy word." ”
"Yes, why not, but I don't pay you anything." He Pingzhang said.
"Hmph, you don't have anything I can look at, I just want you to kill all the disciples of the Linghua Sect on the opposite side, and leave no one behind!" The old ghost Zhongli gritted his teeth.
"I can promise you this, okay, you can say it." He Pingzhang said.
The old ghost of Zhongli smiled strangely: "Let's go, let's find a place, this is not a place to talk." ”
······
The old ghost Zhongli led He Pingzhang to Lin Yuan Restaurant, chartered the most strict private room, ordered a table of dishes, and toasted with He Pingzhang a few times before saying: "Brother He, if I remember correctly, your He family has a strange poison called 'Soul Killing Scatter', yes or no?" ”
"What, don't you want to inquire about the secrets of our He family?" He Pingzhang said coldly.
"Hehe, Brother He, don't get me wrong, I just want to know if your so-called Soul Killing Scatter is really as magical as the legend says." Old Ghost Zhongli laughed.
"If it's like the legend, you can't try it yourself." He Pingzhang's tone was still so cold and hard.
"Okay, good, my fault, hehe, I shouldn't have any suspicion about the He family, I punished myself with three cups to make amends." The old ghost Zhongli laughed, and drank three glasses of wine directly.
After the old ghost Zhongli finished drinking, he wiped his lips and said, "Brother He, can't we use the soul killing scatter on those boys of the Linghua faction, when it comes to the competition, they are all severely injured one by one, how can they fight with you, it is not up to you to decide when the time comes!" ”
"Hmph, what do you think Soul Killing Scatter is, is it a cabbage on the side of the street, if that's the case, it would have been used on your Heavenly Desolate Sect in the first place, although this medicine is magical, but it is extremely difficult to refine, and the materials required are also very precious and difficult to find, even in my He family, it is very rare, just for such a bullshit competition, you want me to use Soul Killing Scatter, hum, Zhongli old ghost, you are really calculating, not only can you help you get rid of the Linghua faction, which is a thorn in the eye, a thorn in the flesh, Can you still weaken our He family to some extent, hmph, are you as stupid as you are? He Pingzhang said angrily.
When the old ghost Zhongli heard this, his eyes rolled imperceptibly, and he said with a smile: "Brother He, Brother He, you misunderstood, I definitely didn't mean to target your He family, so what do you think, even if you buy your Soul Killing Scatter, how about it, how much is it worth, you name it, as long as you can deal with the people of the Linghua faction, Lao Tzu will not hesitate to spend his money." ”
"Oh!? Brother Zhongli is really angry for revenge, does it really cost him? He Pingzhang asked with a smile.
"As long as you can destroy the miscellaneous pieces of the Linghua faction, Lao Tzu will fight." Old Ghost Zhongli said without hesitation, he knew that He Pingzhang was probably going to open his mouth this time, but in order to deal with the Linghua faction, he really let it go.
"Okay, but Yuanjing doesn't need it, I'll give you a list, as long as you can help me get all the things on it, what's the matter if you kill the soul and exchange it for you." He Pingzhang said happily.
Then the two chatted for a while, and He Pingzhang opened a list for Zhongli Old Ghost, although Zhongli Old Ghost has many years of accumulation, coupled with the wealth of the Heavenly Desolation Sect, but after reading the list given by He Pingzhang, his facial muscles still couldn't help twitching, and he scolded secretly in his heart: "He Pingzhang, you old bastard!" ”
······
Since the start time of the semi-finals was two days later, therefore, early the next morning, Ling Hua sent everyone to disperse to visit the capital, Fang Lin and Concubine Shu walked side by side on the streets of the capital, Fang Lin said: "Senior sister, not far in front is the largest medicinal herb sales store in the capital, called 'Elixir Collection', it is said that there are often a lot of rare elixirs in it, and you should be able to use the pill prescription of 'Chixiao Pill' that we got before." ”
"Well, I just reached the ninth level alchemist, but if we want to refine the Chixiao Pill, there are still two rare medicinal materials missing, we can just go to the elixir collection to have a look, otherwise we will have to find the medicinal materials ourselves." Concubine Shu said softly.
"Hehe, think about how fast time flies, it's been nearly ten years since we got the Danfang of Chixiao Pill in a blink of an eye, and we were still very weak at that time." Fang Lin sighed.
"Hee-hee, how can I hear you say this as if it came from the mouth of an old man who is hundreds of years old." Concubine Shu pursed her lips and smiled.
Fang Lin also laughed, no longer dwelling on this issue, and asked after changing the topic: "By the way, Chixiao Dan's requirements are so high, what is its effect?" ”
"There are two effects, the first is healing, the strength of the strong above the Yin and Yang Realm is already very amazing, especially Wu Xiu, even if he is seriously injured, as long as he does not hurt the origin of the internal organs, he can recuperate on his own in a short period of time, but once he receives some injuries that are difficult to heal, such as broken internal organs, broken meridians, etc., it is difficult to recover on his own, and at this time, if there is a Chixiao Pill, such an injury can be healed, but if the soul is injured, the Chixiao Pill is useless."
"The second use can make all the powerhouses of the Yin-Yang Realm crazy, the powerhouses of the Yin-Yang Realm need a very large amount of Yuan Force support for each level, if you just rely on your own penance, unless you use a star-level exercise, otherwise even if it is a Huang-level Heaven Rank exercise, it will take at least two years just to accumulate enough Yuan Power, but the Chixiao Pill can speed up the accumulation of this Yuan Power, a Chixiao Pill can probably make a Yin Yang Realm martial artist speed up the accumulation of Yuan Force by six times in a month, think about it, What is this concept? Concubine Shu said softly.
When Fang Lin heard this, he took a breath of cool air, and the excited flames in his eyes couldn't suppress it and flashed, "Doesn't that mean that if the Chixiao Pill can be supplied, the martial artists of the Yin and Yang Realm will be able to upgrade to one level in about four months?" Will you be able to reach the end of the country in about two years? ”
"Of course not, Chixiao Pill can't be taken continuously, it can only be taken every other month, and the materials it requires are also extremely rare, and if we also take into account the loss of refining failure, we can't have too much, so don't think too well." Concubine Shu smiled.
"Well, I understand, hehe." Fang Lin said embarrassedly, just as the two of them were talking, they had already entered the elixir set, this was a very wide hall, there were more than a hundred medicine cabinets in it, among which thousands of medicinal materials were displayed, none of them were low-end goods, there were dozens of people in the hall selecting medicinal materials, and there were people coming in and out from time to time, but even so, this hall did not seem crowded.
As soon as the two of them entered, a guy greeted them and said with a smile: "Is the guest officer going to buy medicinal herbs, the little one is waiting on the side!" ”
"We want to buy some rare medicinal herbs, I don't know what the little second brother has to say." Fang Lin said gently.
"The guest officer wants rare medicinal materials, just come to our elixir collection, there are thousands of high-grade medicinal materials in the hall on our floor, and the second floor is rare medicinal materials, there are about three hundred kinds of medicinal materials, but each one does not have too much inventory, and the third floor, hehe, not everyone can go up." Dude said.
"Okay, let's go around the first and second floors first." Fang Lin Road.
"Okay, if you need anything, just come to me, the little one will satisfy you." The guy stepped aside.
The two of them walked around unhurriedly on the first floor of the elixir set, this elixir set is worthy of being the largest seller of medicinal materials in the whole merchant country, with all kinds of high-grade medicinal materials, including such treasures as moon lingzhi, red blood ginseng, and green yao fruit. ”
Although the second floor is a hall similar to the first floor, there are many fewer medicine cabinets, but the quality of the medicinal materials displayed in it is much higher than that on the first floor, and these can be regarded as real rare medicinal materials.
"Biling root, hehe, it's actually a five-hundred-year-old Biling root, I didn't expect that the first medicinal herb we saw was what we needed!" Concubine Shu exclaimed excitedly.
Fang Lin also had a smile on his face, called his man, and bought it without hesitation, and then bought more than a dozen kinds of medicinal materials that they didn't have at all, but the medicinal materials needed to refine the Chixiao Pill still couldn't be collected, and Concubine Shu said with some regret: "It's a pity, I still haven't bought the Three-Leaf Pure Yang Grass and the Ice Spirit Xuanyin Fruit." ”
Just as Fang Lin was about to say some comforting words, the guy next to him interjected: "If the guest officer has any medicinal materials needed, you can also order them from this store, but the price is slightly higher." ”
"Oh? Hehe, this is very good, I wonder when we can get the goods if we order the two flavors of three-leaf pure yang grass and ice spirit Xuanyin fruit from your store? Fang Lin said.
"Hehe, please forgive me, because what you want belongs to the rare medicinal materials, and our store does not have them at present, so we can't guarantee the arrival time, but please rest assured, our store will definitely help you purchase the medicinal materials you need in the shortest possible time." The guy laughed.
Concubine Shu nodded when she heard this, she also knew that these two medicinal materials could not be artificially cultivated casually, but a merchant like the Elixir Collection naturally had their channels, and it was better to entrust them to help buy them than to go to the clueless mess by herself, she pursed her lips and smiled: "Okay, we will order these two medicinal materials from your store, the more the merrier." ”
After completing the ordering procedures, the guy became more attentive, chattering endlessly for Fang Lin and them to introduce things related to the elixir collection, seeing that the relationship gradually became familiar, Fang Lin asked seemingly casually: "Little second brother, do you have better medicinal materials on the third floor, or what kind of rare treasures, can't you show them at will?" ”
"Hehe, the guest officer is really wise, our third floor can indeed be called a real treasure, not only that, there are many high-level Dan Fang inside, but if you want to go up to the third floor, you must have a clear personal identity, either you have the guarantee of a second-rate sect or above, or you have to be an alchemist of at least seven levels." Dude said.
Concubine Shu smiled when she heard this, and didn't say anything, and directly took out a bright golden hexagonal metal plate, the front of the brand was engraved with a medicine tripod, with nine leaves hovering on the tripod, and the back was carved with nine big characters of "Alchemist Association of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry".
When the guy saw the brand in Concubine Shu's hand, his eyes almost fell out, he thought that Concubine Shu should be an alchemist, but he never imagined that she was actually a ninth-level alchemist, and there were only seven or eight ninth-level alchemists in the entire Shang Kingdom, each of them was a highly respected figure, and the woman in front of him was so young······
Suddenly, the guy thought of a person, covered his mouth and was about to exclaim, looked at the concubine in front of him, his eyes were full of respect, forcibly suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and smiled a little flatteringly: "The girl has the qualifications to go up to the third floor, the little one will lead the way for you, please!" ”
The layout of the third floor is completely different from that of the first and second floors, it is a small independent room, the door is closed, and there are various medicinal herbs and some pill names written on it, obviously, this room is this medicinal material, and this medicinal herb will occupy a room, which shows the preciousness of these medicinal materials and Danfang.
"Purple Jade Dragon Ginseng, Deep-sea Fluorescent Reef, Polar Xuanyang Fruit ······" The more they read the names of these concubines, the more excited they became, as a top alchemist, what could impress them more than the rare medicinal materials in the world.
Suddenly, Concubine Shu frowned, and muttered softly: "Xuanyin Water Lotus, Fengyan Black Lotus, Golden Leaf Three-third, and Flower on the other side!" How come these rare poisons in the world are actually bought at the same time!? ”
Hearing this, Fang Lin also looked at these doors, and sure enough, these doors were all hung with the sign "Trading", not only these four, but also three or four other highly poisonous medicinal materials such as Tianxing Begonia were also being traded, although he was a little surprised in his heart, but Fang Lin didn't think much about it, and said softly: "Maybe it's a coincidence that there are many people." ”
Concubine Shu shook her head, and just when she was about to explain, suddenly, the door of the "Flower on the Other Side" opened, and a slender figure walked out of it, her steps were extremely heavy, seeing this person clearly, Fang Lin exclaimed in his heart: "Zhongli Meng!" ”
At this time, Zhong Limeng's face showed an extremely painful expression, after seeing Fang Lin and the others, he couldn't react at the first time, or the people who came out of several other rooms soon woke him up, Zhong Limeng saw Fang Lin and the others, and the anger in his heart suddenly broke out, and he sneered: "Man, when will the rules on your third floor be changed, any cat or dog can come up." ”
The guy was just about to explain but was stopped by Fang Lin, looking at Zhong Limeng playfully, Fang Lin sneered: "Yes, yes, aren't you all coming up." ”
A handsome young man standing beside Zhong Limeng was furious when he heard this, and shouted: "Where did the little scraps come from, no one is watching, just barking there." ”
"Who is the little crumb?" Concubine Shu said coldly.
"Little crumbs call you!" The young man didn't think about it, and blurted out a word.
"Haha, there are strange things every year, especially this year, and someone even admitted that he was a little miscellaneous person." Fang Lin laughed.
The young man also reacted, looking at some of the same people next to him who couldn't help laughing, and suddenly turned red with anger, Zhong Limeng saw that he couldn't bargain for anything in his mouth, and his reason was instantly replaced by anger, and he screamed: "The miscellaneous people of the Linghua faction, you just wait, we have prepared good things for you, you can't be arrogant for a few days!" ”
Just when Zhong Limeng wanted to continue to say something, another young man beside her pulled him behind him and shouted, "Senior sister, there's no need to play tricks with a bunch of miscellaneous people, let's go!" After speaking, regardless of Zhong Limeng's screams and resistance, he pulled her straight towards the stairs, however, although Zhong Limeng was forcibly pulled away, he still kept yelling: "You will not have a good end, cherish these last two days, I want you all to die, extremely miserable to die, die······!"
Watching the people of the Heavenly Desolate Sect gradually move away, listening to Zhong Limeng's increasingly weak hysterical cry, Fang Lin didn't say anything more, just a short moment ago, the performance of these people from the Heavenly Desolate Sect could already attract Fang Lin's attention.
Pulling Fang Lin who was in deep thought, Concubine Su frowned and said, "What did you think of?" ”
Fang Lin smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's just a crazy woman, let's look at our medicinal materials." ”
From the elixir collection, Fang Lin's mood was a little heavy, although Fang Lin didn't say it, Concubine Shu was not a fool, how could he not understand some of the Dao, back at the station, Fang Lin asked Concubine Shu: "Senior sister, did you say that those people in the Heavenly Desolate Sect bought so many highly poisonous medicinal materials for their own alchemy?" ”
"Poisonous medicine is not necessarily bad, on the contrary, they are still rare treasures, it depends on how to use them, for example, Tianxing Begonia, which itself contains highly poisonous, but if it is combined with some other medicinal materials such as Wet Condensation Grass and Ice Heart Leaves, it can be refined to produce 'Tianxing Ning Shenlu', which is a holy medicine for the treatment of madness."
"However, the flowers on the other side of the sea bought by the Heavenly Desolate Sect are terrible, they all say that life is like the ups and downs of the bitter sea, life is endless, the bitter sea has no shore, only life comes to the end to reach the other side of the bitter sea, this flower is named 'the other side', which is enough to show its domineering." Concubine Shu explained.
"So what is the effect of the flower on the other side?" Fang Lin asked.
"The other side flower itself is not actually toxic, but it can fuse any number of poisonous properties together to form some unknown and more terrifying strange poisons, for example, the medicinal properties of the Xuanyin Decay Water Lotus and the Sealing Flame Black Lotus are in conflict with each other, under normal circumstances, if the two are put together, they will attack each other, and eventually the toxicity of the two will cancel out and become waste, but if there is a flower on the other side, they can fuse, and form different poisons according to the different proportions, and the toxicity will only be more violent!" Concubine Shu said.
"That is to say, the Heavenly Desolate Sect wants those highly poisonous medicinal materials not to alchemy at all, but to make poison, to make a kind of poison that they can't control themselves, and then, hehe, it's going to be used on us." Fang Lin sneered.
At this moment, Fang Lin's transmission note suddenly vibrated violently, Fang Lin was startled, and hurriedly opened the spell, and Lin Shouxin's eager voice came from inside: "Brother, where are you, I have 100,000 urgent news to inform you!" ”
"Big brother, I'm at the station, what's wrong?" Fang Lin asked.
"Okay, I'll come over immediately, you must wait for me!" Lin Shouxin said.
Fang Lin's heart suddenly moved, he thought of a possibility, and immediately said: "Big brother, don't come to our station, there may be surveillance, let's go to Ziyunxuan for tea, but it's better for big brother to hide his identity, I'm afraid it will cause you some trouble." ”
"Okay, brother, you're thoughtful, I'll go over in a quarter of an hour." Lin Shouxin finally calmed down and said.
After a stick of incense, Fang Lin and Concubine Shu pretended to be nothing, walked out of the station, and went around a few big circles on the street, and after making sure that no one was following, they walked into Ziyunxuan and asked for a first-class private room.
It didn't take long for Lin Shouxin, who was dressed in black and covered his face with a big black hat, into their private room under the leadership of the guy, and waited for the guy to respectfully exit the door, close the door, and then after Fang Lin laid down a layer of soundproofing prohibition, Lin Shouxin spoke: "Brother, I'm afraid your Linghua faction is going to be in big trouble this time!" ”
"Did Big Brother get any news?" Fang Lin asked.
"Yesterday, the old ghost Zhongli of the Heavenly Desolate Sect and He Pingzhang of the He family came to our Lin Yuan Restaurant for dinner, and the two chatted for a long time in the private room, during which we guys happened to hear the old ghost Zhongli say to He Pingzhang that he was willing to pay the price in exchange for the He family's soul killing to deal with your Linghua faction, brother, you better find a chance to escape first, this is better than not participating." Lin Shouxin said.
Hearing the words "Soul Killing Scattering", Fang Lin was also shocked in his heart, this kind of poison that even a powerhouse in the life and death realm accidentally hit a trick and caused the soul to suffer irreparable wounds can be said to be famous in the Yeyue Empire, of course he knew, but he never imagined that the Heavenly Desolate Sect would be crazy to such an extent in order to deal with them, combined with the situation he had seen in the elixir set before, Fang Lin had already reasoned about the matter.
Fang Lin clenched his fists at Lin Shouxin, and said solemnly: "Thank you, big brother, for informing me of such important news in the face of great danger, such kindness, Linghua Sect Minggan!" ”
Lin Shouxin hurriedly grabbed Fang Lin's arms and said: "Brother, you have always been giving my Lin family great help, and you have made my Lin family survive the catastrophe of exterminating the clan several times, it can be said that without you, there would be no current Lin family, I can do something for you, my brother is very happy in his heart, don't say anything if you are grateful, otherwise you will not be a brother to me!" ”
The two glanced at each other, both laughing, and then the two talked for a while, Lin Shouxin put on his big black hat and left, and after about a quarter of an hour, Fang Lin and the others left Ziyunxuan to return to the station.
At this time, it was already unitary time, it was the time to eat, Ling Hua sent a group of people to sit around the dinner table, but no one moved their chopsticks, Qu Shan'er said: "Fang Lin, in order to prevent the people of the Heavenly Desolate Sect from being poisoned, don't we eat anything, not even drink water?" ”
"Killing souls is not harmed, destroying the soul, and the most terrifying thing is that it will not kill people all at once, but let your soul slowly dissolve, so that you can obviously feel that you are weak day by day, and the strength you have worked hard to cultivate is passing little by little, and you are slowly dying in pain and despair; Therefore, we have to be careful, now that the Heavenly Desolate Sect and the He family have joined forces, I guess they are going to poison us before our match with the He family, and then let the He family kill us all properly in the game, so we only need to hold out for two days. Fang Lin said.
The Great Elder sighed and said, "At present, we have no better way, so we can only do this first. ”
Huai Ming said: "I don't know how many souls are scattered in their hands, if there are a lot of them, I'm afraid our entire Linghua faction will suffer." ”
"Hehe, this can rest assured, not only is it extremely difficult to find medicinal materials, but it is also extremely difficult to refine, even if the most powerful alchemist of the He family comes to refine it, it will not exceed the success rate of thirty percent, so this Soul Killing Scatter will never be much." Fang Lin Road.
"Then do you know how this Soul Killing Scatter is poisoned?" Qu Shan'er asked.
Fang Lin shook his head, but at this time, Dongfang Lei said, "I have heard a spirit pill master talk about some things about this soul killing scatter. He paused, and continued under the eager gaze of everyone: "The Soul Killing is scattered into a white powder, with a slight sweet fragrance, but it cannot be used in food or drinking water, because, in that case, food or drinking will emit a very strong odor, and the best way to poison it is to apply it to the edge of the weapon, and it will be poisoned while injuring the enemy, but the pure dust and dew are its nemesis. ”
Concubine Su was already shocked when she heard this, the spirit pill master was beyond the existence of a ninth-level alchemist, and Shang Guo did not even have a spirit pill master, such a master, Dongfang Lei had talked to him, and Concubine Shu's eyes flashed with envy and regret.
Qu Shan'er grinned and said, "I have an idea, do you want to listen to it?" ”
"Xiao Nizi, don't sell Guanzi, say it quickly!" The Great Elder scolded with a smile.
"According to what Senior Brother Dongfang said, if the Heavenly Desolate Sect wants to poison, it will inevitably have to do something with us, and due to the regulations of the imperial court, they don't dare to force it, so there are only two ways, one is to sneak attack, but this is not very likely, unless it is Zhongli Old Ghost who personally makes a move, otherwise, with the strength of their disciples, with Shizun and Elder Huaiming, they don't even have a chance to get close."
"This second is a challenge, a challenge in the name of revenge, and then at the cost of the disciple's life to hurt us, but, hehe, he doesn't know that this soul killing is useless for the seven of us."
"So, I think we should pretend to be injured, and then angrily kill the people who came to challenge, and then pretend to be wounded, and then, in the game, we should be caught off guard by the He family, so that we can not only win easily, but also make the old ghost Zhongli carry a big black cauldron." Qu Shan'er said brightly.
"That's a good point, but He Pingzhang is also a treacherous and cunning character, will he be fooled?" Li Haoran questioned.
"Yes, definitely, just because he is cunning and cunning, so he will speculate in many ways, and it is because of his confidence in his own poison that he will doubt others, but he will never think that we will have such a thing as pure dust and dew, so he will only suspect that the old ghost Zhongli is secretly playing ghosts, I am sure that even if the old ghost Zhongli poisons us, he will not use all the poison, he will inevitably leave a part, and this part ······" Fang Lin Road.
Grabbing Fang Lin's words, Li Haoran said: "This part will become a yellow mud that fell into his crotch, haha." ”
Everyone laughed heartily when they heard this, this time Qu Shan'er didn't say the vulgar words that hit Li Haoran, but Li Haoran said even more proudly: "This time, we will call the little witch to fight the big old ghost!" ”
Everyone laughed again, Qu Shan'er finally couldn't help but attack Li Haoran, but Fang Lin ignored this, his eyes flashed coldly, and he muttered in a low voice: "Heavenly Desolate Sect, He Family, I won't let you have a good time!" ”
······
