Chapter 44: Poison Harvesting in the South
But poison is something that everyone can take, and medicine is something that everyone can eat, and there are not a few human beings who are eager to get medicine and poison.
However, humans and demons are incompatible, and human beings are helpless to get these medicines and poisons.
The only way to do this is through the black market in the border areas.
This kind of illegal action can bring a lot of benefits to both humans and demons.
Smuggling drugs may seem wrong, but if you can save an entire family or even a village, you have to go.
Correspondingly, as long as the southern side turns a blind eye to this kind of behavior, it can get a high profit return.
"Hurry up and pick ...... I'm going to close the stall soon......"
The stall owner looked impatiently at the few customers in front of him, raised his head and yawned.
It was at this moment when he looked up that he suddenly saw a purple shadow flashing in the sky, as if he had seen nothing.
"Huh?!That's ......"
The stall owner rubbed his eyes again, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that he didn't seem to have seen anything just now.
"Dazzled... Sure enough, it's been out for too long, and I knew I should have slept more today-"
As he spoke, the stall owner's eyes suddenly widened.
Suddenly a young man in a purple robe appeared in front of him, and the purple red of this person's clothes was exactly the same as the forgotten light and shadow in his eyes.
'What's going on...... Is it really such a coincidence? ’
The stall owner rubbed his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him, and his originally surprised expression quickly calmed down.
He really didn't see anything special about this young man.
looks like a gentleman, and his muscles look quite strong, but they are nothing compared to those demon clans in the south.
Besides, he was unarmed, and he couldn't see any magic weapon in his thin clothes, which would be poisoned if he didn't live for more than three minutes in the south.
"Just look at it and choose ......"
The stall owner shouted at the young man angrily, and the young man spoke.
"Do you sell poison here?"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked.
Everyone looked at the boy in unison, shocked by his question.
It is normal for humans in the border black market to buy medicinal herbs, but if they buy poison, this human is likely to be a Taoist.
This is because if you want to poison an ordinary person, you can easily do it with just ordinary poison. But if you want to poison the Taoist, ordinary poison will not work.
And the Gu poison in the southern country is extremely ruthless, and it is difficult for Daoists with high mana to parry.
Therefore, the people who want to spend a high price to buy the Gu poison of the Southern Kingdom are generally people who have a grudge against the Taoist and have nothing to do with the Taoist.
"What do you say? What do you want poison for? ”
"It's just a matter of buying something, and that's what I want to tell you."
The young man replied calmly.
"Boy, you dare to come here without even knowing the basic rules?"
The faces of several surrounding buyers gradually turned from surprise to banter.
After all, this young man is not very old, and his speech is quite immoral, and at first glance he is a layman who has not dried up.
The young man bowed slightly.
"I really don't understand the rules, after all, I've only been here for the first day, please advise me on one or two."
Hearing the young man's words, everyone's hearts were finally relieved.
"Really... Lao Tzu thought he was really a Taoist. Shocked. ”
"The first day you came to this kind of place, you can ask for a location."
"Okay, which village are you from? Report your name first, and then say what you want the poison to do. We wouldn't sell it if it wasn't for a very special situation. ”
The young man scratched his head with white eyes, and was already starting to get a little impatient.
"Lin Ye."
"The words of the village are not clear...... It's okay if you don't report it. ”
- "Lin Ye? ”
The stall owner's expression was slightly stunned.
Why do you seem to have heard this name somewhere?
Three years ago was when Lin Ye's name resounded through the Dao Alliance.
However, it was only between the Dao Alliance, and almost no Dao people didn't know about Lin Ye, but the demon clan and ordinary people had only heard of it slightly, or had never heard of it at all.
Lin Ye said and glanced at the medicine jar on the right hand side of the stall owner.
On one side of the draperium, there were several columns of extremely expensive medicinal herbs, and the price was ten times higher than that of ordinary medicinal herbs.
Looking at this medicine jar, Lin Ye couldn't help but smile contemptuously.
Not because of anything else, but because he had seen all these medicinal materials in the Divine Volcano Village, and this was not a medicine imported from the south at all.
This merchant is obviously shoddy and deceiving the uninformed public.
"Are you sick? What are you laughing at here? ”
"It's nothing, it's just that I suddenly think that the poison in your stall shouldn't be very good, so it's better to look elsewhere."
Lin Ye smiled lightly.
"Your medicine is fake, how good can the poison be?"
"Boy, are you getting impatient?"
A tall and burly buyer behind him blocked Lin Ye's way.
"Do you know how long we will have to wait to get the goods this time?! A layman would dare to speak out here? ”
Lin Ye looked at the strong man standing in front of him, his expression was still calm.
"It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, that's all I have to say, get out of the way."
The strong man's body shrugged a step towards Lin Ye's retreat.
Looking at Lin Ye, who turned his back, the stall owner snorted coldly.
"Huh...... Boy, you want to slip away like this because you ruined the reputation of my store, right? ”
"You say my goods are fake?"
Lin Ye turned around and smiled disdainfully.
"Are you going to bet with me?"
"Bet on what?"
"Bet if I'll be safe after I eat all your poison."
“……”
"Hahahahaha!!!"
After Lin Ye finished speaking, the surrounding spectators erupted in overwhelming laughter.
Even the stall owner couldn't help but cover his eyes and laugh dumbly.
"Boy, are you serious? The demon clan and the human race in this area have frequent conflicts, and they are not under the control of any country, and the dead are not illegal. ”
"Needless to say, don't you dare."
"Huh...... Since you're talking about this, I'll open your eyes. ”
The stall owner said as he took two steps out of the area where he was standing, and pried open a stone in the ground.
There was also a hollow space under the stone, which contained several specially made jars.
When the stall owner presented those jars to Lin Ye, all the onlookers showed a terrible expression.
"It's ......"
"Millennial Overlord Scorpion Needle Poison, Longdan Snake Heart Powder, Jiuqu Royal Bee Ginseng, Hundred Marriage Split Lung Grass ......?!"
There seemed to be a few veteran connoisseurs among the passers-by, pointing to the stall owner's vault in surprise, and even their fingers trembled.
"Any kind of poison can pawn a thousand gold......"
Hearing the exclamation of passers-by, the stall owner looked relieved.
"It seems that there are still people who know the goods."
"But it's ruining my stall's business, and I'm not going to let this kid go."
"Boy, come and have a try."
