Chapter 13: Chaos
Although he didn't get the white purple orchid, but he also knew where it was sold, Shangguan Yi could barely accept it, but the threshold was a little higher, and he just worked hard.
Shangguan Yi walked around the street twice, bought some jackdaw grass, and went back to the inn where he lived.
Jackdaw grass, there is a kind of crow called jackdaw in the far north, it likes cold, and it is prone to extremely cold weather, and its nest uses a special grass weaving. This grass grows in the far north and is adapted to the cold, but it is not very useful, because the jackdaw likes to use it to weave nests, hence the name jackdaw grass.
Shangguan Yi's intention to buy it was naturally to make drugs.
There is a mixture of purple orchid and jackdaw grass, which can be used when heated to boiling with a lamp and then cooled. It's just that the toxicity is average, and the advantage is that the outbreak is fast and lasts for a long time. The effect is not to let the poisoned person feel the sensation, basically when the skin is cut, you will not feel the sensation near the wound. Yes, it's very poisonous, but for Shangguan Yi, it is a necessary thing to kill people and set fires.
Yes, murder and arson.
Rich and dangerous, Shangguan Yi plans to prepare to find clues, the task clues that may get uncapped ghost street points!
People die for money, and birds die for food, this sentence is very reasonable and true in most cases.
Shangguan Yi said that he didn't dare to take risks, and he didn't dare to wade into this wave of troubled waters. But now, for the sake of Bai Zilan, he has to find a way to enter the Yin Ghost Street, let alone lie in the muddy water, even if he muddies the water and clarifies the muddy water, he will dare to do it!
It's just that he needs to be prepared, so as not to respond to all changes, if he doesn't make a move, he will kill.
Shangguan Yi was tinkering with his things here, but he didn't know that the ghost street was about to make a commotion, and at the beginning of the bidding for the fragments of the mountain and river map, the price went all the way up, and as the price went all the way up, few people who participated in the bidding could afford it. Conscious rich people feel that it is not worth the price, and give up decisively, and people who are not conscious and have money are different, they frantically refresh the price, stimulating those who are not conscious and have no money.
Finally, when another climactic price arrived, a few people flew up and rushed to the mountains and rivers.
"Boom", a few ghosts almost came out of nowhere, blocking in front of the stall, and at the same time there were several sound of crossbows firing, a few flowers of blood blooming, and crossbow arrows nailed to the ground or wall with their bodies. There were only two or three people who were really close to the fragments of the mountain and river map, and the ghost cha quickly dealt with these people, and then after explaining the situation to the stall owner, he left with these people, and everyone knew that it was impossible for these people to leave alive. After this change, the fiery scene is like being poured a basin of cold water, and there is no longer the feeling it had before.
The faint smell of blood in the air reminded them of what happened before, as long as they showed their intention to rob, they would kill them on the spot without saying a word, this is the bottom line of the ghost street and their warning, warning the young people not to do things in the ghost street!
In the end, the fragments of the mountain and river map were taken away by an upstart, the goods were cleared, and the transaction was completed.
But everyone knows that the real drama tonight is when the deal is completed, and the nouveau riche leaving the ghost street has just begun, and now it's just foreplay.
"He's not too stupid, he knows to hire some bodyguards, and even entrust those forces to escort him away. The woman stood on the second floor of Huangquan Road, which was not lonely, holding a wine glass in her hand, and still said coldly.
"Isn't it too stupid?" Zhao Han asked as he sat at the wine table and was a little puzzled. It's not too stupid after all, it's still stupid, he hasn't been here for a long time, and he doesn't quite understand why the woman said this.
"There are only so many forces in the ghost street who have the strength to keep him, how can these forces be mobilized because of a fragment of a mountain and river map? Even if someone wants to, it would be good to directly participate in the bidding or robbery, just an upstart, vainly trying to reach out to something that does not belong to him, and the result will be death no matter what. The woman explained to Zhao Han, and there was still no superfluous emotion in her words, just telling the truth.
Zhao Han nodded and asked, "What about you? Do you also want to intervene? With your temperament, you don't care about this kind of thing for no reason." ”
The woman shook her head and said, "Her secret letter, there may be an accident in the ghost street recently, let me pay attention to all kinds of changes and be careful." There was a hint of caution between the words this time.
Zhao Han also straightened his expression and said, "Have you found anything? If you need help, just say it directly." ”
The woman groaned for a long time and said, "I don't know, it's just that I remember that you have a good relationship with Su Wei." ”
Zhao Han nodded: "Although this person's reputation is not very good, his temperament is top-notch, and his means and intelligence are quite high, and I am still in love with him." ”
The woman shook her head and said, "Even if you praise him like this, it is useless, he is not qualified to come in." ”
Zhao Han was pierced in his mind, and he was not embarrassed, he laughed and asked, "Do you need Su Wei's help?"
The woman seemed to hesitate for a moment and said, "I remember that the Su family has a forging god in the power of Yin Ghost Street?"
Zhao Han was stunned for a moment and said, "You need this?"
The woman held her forehead and said with a little headache: "He has been in the ghost street recently, you just need to tell him that I want to talk to him about this matter, and if he wants to, he can come here to find me, if he doesn't want to, forget it." "I don't know why she is willing to accept this person, it's just a piece of rotten wood, not as good as Su Wei.
Zhao Han thought about it for a while, the left and right are just a matter of passing words, and the woman and Su Wei are not the kind of people who fight or settle grievances if they can't get along. To put it bluntly, both of them are very lazy, if it is not necessary, the woman likes to drink and enjoy flowers and chess, Su Wei likes to drink and practice swords, and visit the Qinglou, so it is too difficult for them to take the initiative to do things.
Zhao Han thought about the stakes for a while, and should get off this errand, he was not afraid of trouble or anything, the main thing was that he always had a bad premonition, feeling that something would happen to Su Wei and Ye Xuetian, and he didn't know who to help.
On the other side, the nouveau riche found a bodyguard and walked out of the door of the ghost street with confidence, and nothing happened. There are still some people on the street who are hurrying away, it's getting late, most of them should go back to rest, and the night in the ghost capital is not so peaceful.
It's a pity that the one who should come will always come, and when they walked out a few streets and couldn't return to the ghost street for a short time, there were cannon fodder who jumped out and said some high-sounding words, and then successfully received the bento and started the main show tonight.
Although the nouveau riche invited a lot of people, they were also very strong and experienced, but unfortunately, as Ye Xuetian said, there were few people who could keep him, and he couldn't move.
The current situation is that there are more people who come to kill him, all of them are veterans in black clothes and masks, whether they can grab it or not, they will cover up their identities first. Whether this cover is useful or not, do you see my appearance, after tonight, who is here today, I don't know if you don't know, everyone slept at home last night, and they are all model people who work and rest on time.
It's lively here, and the people watching the play are also enjoying it, and in this thick dark night, I don't know how many praying mantises, how many yellow finch, and how many are theatergoers who really don't plan to get involved in this matter.
In the inn, Shangguan Yi had just packed up his things, came out of the state of concentrating on what was going on outside the window, and was about to sleep, but suddenly felt that something was not right, why was it a little noisy outside?
Shangguan Yi cautiously opened the window and looked out, the whole person was a little dumbfounded, this is the wildness of the ghost capital? Although it is night, it is too much to be so open-minded and undisguised in a large-scale fight, right?
Although it is not very real, Shangguan Yi can still see the fight between the two streets from his street to the back, the sound of fighting, the soft sound of swords colliding, the shaking firelight, and the scattered innocent people.
Shangguan Yi had palpitations, but fortunately he was a good boy who listened to persuasion, and according to the admonition of his predecessors in the book, he returned to the inn early, otherwise he didn't know how he died.
A group of people are fighting around, but the attackers are not aligned, and the defenders are fighting to the death, so even if the attackers are much more numerous than the defenders, they will not be able to take advantage of them for a while.
But on the other hand, if it is said that it is a group of great evil people who encircle and suppress the good forces, Shangguan Yi said that he believes that you are a ghost, and good people will dress up like this to do good deeds? But on the other hand, if it is said that it is a group of big evil people who encircle and suppress the good forces, it doesn't make sense, they can do this but they won't, those people are actually a pile of scattered sand, what is really the matter, that is, the attitude of each family to sweep the snow in front of their own door.
Could it be that he is killing people and overselling goods? Shangguan Yi's eyes lit up, he thought of this possibility, and after speculating carefully, he really felt that it was possible.
It's too much! How can this group of people be like this? Do they understand if they don't show off their wealth? They have to show off their wealth, and now something has happened? They deserve it! There is another group of people, how can they go so far? They are all people who have come to kill people and steal goods, so why don't they just use their methods neatly?
Obviously, Shangguan Yi entered the theater mode, and he didn't think it was a big deal at all, the more he watched, the more he looked, the more he wanted to point out this group of people or cut people with his own hands.
It's a pity that there is a saying called happiness and sorrow, just when Shangguan Yi was looking happy, several black-clothed masked people chased a black-clothed masked man and ran to the side of the God of Wealth Inn where Shangguan Yi lived, and the person who was chased was seriously injured, and the slower he ran. Finally, he was chased by a person, slammed into the wall after being slapped with a palm, and then fell down, and he couldn't survive.
Shangguan Yi's right eyelid jumped, is this a fight in the nest? It's too ruthless, isn't it that you haven't succeeded yet? You guys are doing this, it's not okay.
Seeing that the victory was in their hands, the black-clothed masked men surrounded him and mocked: "Do you still want to disguise yourself like this and run away with fragments of mountains and rivers? How many ways do you divide the soldiers? Do you really think that we have been in vain all these years? Naive! Let me tell you, none of you want to run, you all have to die." ”
When Shangguan Yi heard this, he understood something, it turned out to be the pot of the fragments of the mountains and rivers before, and he didn't know what happened, he could make it like this, it seemed that the person who got the fragments was a bad move, and he underestimated these old fritters.
The man smiled: "How do you know, have I completed my mission here?Brother, then, take it away!" After he finished speaking, he tried his best to throw a piece of debris at Shangguan Yi, and then blocked the idea that these people wanted to intercept, and was knocked to the ground again, this time it was really going to die. It's a pity that before he died, he saw Shangguan Yi catch the fragment, and before he had time to laugh, he saw Shangguan Yi's next step: throwing it down, and then mercilessly closing the window.
He didn't believe that anyone would be greedy and curious about this kind of thing, even if he didn't know what it was, but so many people risked their lives to rob things, and when he turned around, he went to the ghost street and changed hands for a lot of silver! But this person just gave up casually, and threw it down like garbage.
The rest of the people present were a little surprised, they didn't think that the dead person was sold by the brother upstairs or something, and they didn't even think that the one upstairs was the dead person's gang, and they had seen a lot of blame. The problem is that the man is too decisive, right? I don't care about the appearance of the fragment of the mountain and river map, you know, as long as he is a little greedy, they will kill him. In front of the real big forces, in the ghost capital, it's not enough to see. On weekdays, it's to give you face, blow each other in business, and deceive uninformed hillbillies. If something really happens, it's not easy for Ning Sanye to come over!
They didn't think much about it, they took the pieces, searched the dead man's body and left, if they could, they wouldn't kill if they could, they didn't kill people, they weren't in the devil's way who loved to kill, and the innocent were too lazy to move.
Here, Shangguan Yi closed the window and hurriedly prepared to deal with the broken window, and the people were sitting at home, and the pot came from the sky, it was too much! Is this how the innocent people were killed at will? Shangguan Yi was also a little angry, but the top priority now was how to survive this catastrophe.
Shangguan Yi calmly thought hard about countermeasures here, but there was no movement outside, and secretly opened the window to look outside, except for a corpse, there was nothing, it should have been gone. Damn, it's good that I'm decisive, otherwise I would have been pitted by a fake picture.
Yes, fake picture, the moment Shangguan Yi caught the fragment, he knew that this was not the one on the ghost street, the corners and everything were right, and the materials were very similar, but they weren't. The silk does not absorb water, and it is difficult to get dirty, so it is recorded in the book that dyeing the silk is a very troublesome thing, so the mountain and river map can exist for so long. But just now that person's blood was on the debris, and that kind of touch, it was definitely a little wet from the debris, soaked with blood, is it possible? The answer is obviously no.
Relieved, Shangguan Yi went to get the closet, the inn in the ghost capital will prepare a black masked suit for everyone, change it, although let Xiao Er change into a small clothes, but it is still a little too big, make do with it. Bring your things and set off, he will also do things in Shangguanyi!
Since tonight can't just end so simply, I'll mix it up, and I'll see what you have to do!
