Chapter 55: A Jar of Good Wine
Nie Mobei said: "Lightning Gate, the head of the door is called Jiang Yi." I heard that his martial arts are strong, and his family is rich, and he has hundreds of disciples and many family members under his hands, all of whom are not weak in martial arts.
Although he was ruthless, he heard that he generally did not do it himself. Today, you should have also met his son Jiang Minghui, the man in his twenties. ”
"It turns out that his full name is Jiang Minghui, and his phantom swordsmanship is really powerful......"
This was the first time Chu Junwen had fought such a sinister battle with someone, and now that he thinks about it, he still has some lingering palpitations.
Although the last fight with Ximenhong was also dangerous, neither side had any murderous intentions, they just wanted to defeat the other. Even if he fought with Miao Xiaohuan, Miao Xiaohuan was ruthless at that time, but after all, it was different from this man's ruthlessness.
"Phantom Sword?"
"Yes, I don't know what the path is, I've never heard the master talk about such swordsmanship. Didn't Brother Nie fight him?"
"I didn't play against him. Is that phantom sword a wonderful swordsmanship?" Nie Mobei asked curiously.
Chu Junwen explained the situation of the fight to Nie Mobei in detail.
Nie Mobei listened and pondered:
"As far as I know, Jiang Yi fought with people, and no one knew what weapon he used, because his speed was so fast that most people couldn't see it clearly. But he must not have used a weapon like a long sword, but a very small weapon.
Then his son's swordsmanship should not be the same as him, and I don't know what the origin of this phantom sword is...... When you have the opportunity, you must see and learn. ”
Chu Junwen said: "...... That's the case, then why did Brother Nie have a holiday with the Lightning Gate?"
Nie Mobei pondered for a moment and said, "It shouldn't be that there is no festival, maybe they have also joined the Netherworld Sect......"
"That's ...... Didn't Jiang Minghui mention to you the reason for dealing with you?"
Nie Mobei shook his head and began to talk about the beginning and end of this incident-
After Nie Mobei and Yin Tiancheng said goodbye to him, they went all the way southwest. His days of training in the rivers and lakes have not been short, and he has been cautious all the way, so he has not encountered any non-entanglement, and he arrived at Qifeng City smoothly in the morning.
At ten o'clock in the afternoon, he hurried into the dense forest on horseback. Because in the corner of the forest, there is still a family living in an old couple who he rescued in a ranger a few years ago.
The old man's surname was Yang, and he was a former imperial brewer in Guiyin, and the wine he brewed was particularly strong and sweet, which could not be bought with money on the market. Since he drank at his house that time, Nie Mobei has never forgotten it, so when he passed by today, he decided to ask for a glass of wine.
About a mile north from the forest path, the farmhouse that had been blurred in my memory came into view. The courtyard is quiet, the yellow bamboo fence is surrounded by green vines that have not withered for many years, the door is open, and a few chickens not far away are pecking leisurely.
Nie Mobei raised his voice and shouted, "Is Brother Yang at home?", and after a long time, no one responded, so he tied the horse to the tree outside the courtyard, went straight into the courtyard, and walked into the living room.
The house was tidy, but empty, Nie Mobei estimated that they should have gone to work in the fields, so he sat down at the table and waited.
Sure enough, after only a moment, I could hear the sound of footsteps outside. Nie Mobei went out to see that an old man in his fifties approached the courtyard with a hoe, his face was still stained with some mud, although his body seemed to be more stiff than before, but his face had not changed much, it was Brother Yang who he hadn't seen for a few years.
Lao Yang also saw Nie Mobei by the door at this time, and he hurriedly put down the hoe, and greeted him with a smile:
"Oh! Is Brother Nie here? What a rare guest! I dreamed last night that there were seven-colored flowers blooming in our courtyard, and in the morning I said to my wife, could it be that there would be some noble person in the house, but it turned out that Brother Nie was really here!"
"Where is a nobleman, he is a good wine worm, passing by here today, I want to ask Brother Yang for a glass of wine, and it is good that Brother Yang doesn't bother me.
But I didn't expect that after not seeing each other for so many years, Brother Yang could still remember me so quickly. Nie Mobei said with a smile.
"People say that the grace of saving lives is unforgettable, you see my brother and my teeth are still very good, only a few years have passed, how can I not remember it?"
Lao Yang said "haha", invited Nie Mobei into the living room again, and busily took out a jar of wine, brought a plate of beef and braised tofu to the table and said:
"It's been all these hours, Brother Nie must be hungry, you drink two cups by yourself first, I went to the field and called the old woman to come back and cook a few hot dishes, brother, I will accompany you again." ”
"Brother, don't bother too much!" Although Nie Mobei has a bold and uninhibited personality, he feels a little uneasy after letting them and his wife be so busy with themselves.
"No trouble! No trouble! My brother is willing to come, it's too late for us to be happy!" said Lao Yang, who had already walked quickly to the door.
Nie Mobei had no choice but to let him.
Sitting back at the table, the aroma of wine in the wine jar had wafted out, "Good wine!" Nie Mobei couldn't help but take a deep breath, took the wine jar, and uncovered the lid, the aroma of wine was even worse.
"It's a taste I've been thinking about for years! ”
Nie Mobei smiled, poured out a bowl, and took a small bite. The wine is smooth and sweet in the mouth, and the aroma fills all the taste buds, but this time, the taste has a faint floral fragrance in the aftertaste.
"It's such a special taste, the front taste is strong and stimulating, but the aftertaste is peaceful and fragrant, how can there be such a unique wine! Brother Yang is really skilled!" Nie Mobei couldn't help but praise, and drank two big sips: "Happy!"
"Really?" a strange feminine male voice sounded, and at this time the old Yang had returned to the door of the room, with an inexplicable smile on his face, and his eyes were smug and vicious, although the face was still the same face, but the expression before and after was very different.
Nie Mobei was shocked in his heart, and secretly screamed: "Not good!" Hurriedly and secretly tried his true qi, but felt a throbbing pain in his dantian.
"Who is Your Excellency!" Nie Mobei asked coldly.
The old Yang "hehe" laughed dryly, and with a flick of his sleeve on his face, he changed to a white man in his thirties. arched his hand and said with a smile: "Peng Daxia is prestigious, I don't know if you can recognize it as a mere Lingxiuer?"
"Thousand-faced poisonous scholar Ling Xiu'er!"
"Haha...... It's just a little bit below!" Ling Xiu'er smiled proudly: "I have been looking up to the prestige of Peng's heroes for a long time, and I am eager to pay respects, but unfortunately I don't have the opportunity, and I don't want to be lucky enough to meet here today." ”
"Huh...... Is that so, Your Excellency has been thinking about this life for a long time! Nie Mobei was talking, and at the same time, he secretly breathed his true qi, trying to force the poison out of his body.
"I advise Peng Daxia not to do this futile act, or take advantage of the time now to drink a few glasses of wine, otherwise you will not have this opportunity soon. ”
At this time, Ling Xiu'er already had an extra judge's pen in her hand, and she rotated it between her fingers, looking careless and comfortable.
"Is it, since Your Excellency is sure that I have been poisoned, why don't you take action?" Nie Mobei said coldly.
"Why do I want to make a move? Wouldn't it be better to be able to work at ease? Besides, Peng Daxia doesn't want to have a few transparent holes on his body before he dies, right?" Ling Xiu'er said with a smile.
He was more cautious this time.
The previous design to harm Miao Xiaohuan and Li Daochang saw that it had been successful, but after a little carelessness, he went to chase Li Daochang and came back but did not have Miao Xiaohuan's body, so he suspected that she was not dead, and couldn't help but regret his intestines.
This time, he saw that although Nie Mobei had been poisoned, he didn't want to approach him now, in case he could still fight with his life, it would be a very dangerous thing.
"You want to sit back and wait for me to die, but I'm afraid you won't be able to do what Your Excellency wants!"
"That's because Peng Daxia doesn't know what kind of poison he has! I have been carefully developing this poison for three years, and it was finally a great success a few days ago, which is a subtle recipe that my master Poison Zun didn't even think of. It is colorless and tasteless, and no matter how high the internal force is after the stomach, people will not notice it if they do not activate their true power. ”
"So, what kind of extremely clever poison is this? I am also wondering, as long as I drink ordinary poisons, my body will immediately feel them, and when I am forced to do so, they will be expelled immediately. And I am completely unaware of the poison that Your Excellency has succumbed. ”
"Hahahaha......" Ling Xiu'er laughed loudly, extremely proud:
"Of course! How can those ordinary poisons be embarrassed to play under the eyes of Peng Daxia. The poison I use is called the Nine Spices Shroud, Peng Daxia has seen and heard a lot, can you know the origin?"
"Nine Spice Shroud Scattered...... Is it practiced by Nine Spice Flowers and Shrouds?" Nie Mobei was clever in his heart, and asked calmly with a pretending to be on his face.
Ling Xiu'er was slightly surprised: "Peng Daxia is really good, he actually said it!" and smiled proudly:
"If the nine-spice flower and the shroud are not used with the aid of other medicines, the medicinal properties are slow, and even after the attack, they cannot kill people immediately.
But after I blended and concocted it, and then put it in this fine spirit and sealed it for a day, the toxicity was a hundred times more intense, and after taking it, it immediately entered the human heart, and died in a moment...... Peng Daxia, you will soon be leaving this world. Hahaha......"
After Ling Xiu'er finished speaking, she looked up to the sky and smiled.
"So, you arrived here before yesterday, what happened to the second elder of the Yang family?"
"Peng Daxia is dying, and he is still worried about the safety of the deceased, it's really rare, rare! It's just that such a rare person is going to die young......
Ling Xiu'er said with a mocking smile.
"Heh!" Nie Mobei chuckled: "People are going to die sooner or later, I just want to do what I like when I live, and I will die without regrets...... What the hell did you do to them?"
"Hmph! It's just two useless people, and I've already sent them to go first. Ling Xiu'er's face did not change, as if killing two people was a common thing in his eyes.
"You're ......!"
Nie Mobei took a breath, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and then asked:
"I only know that Your Excellency has the title of a thousand-faced poisonous scholar, and is a master of disguise and poisoning, but I haven't heard that Your Excellency can pinch and calculate, and I expected that I would come here in advance. ”
At this time, I heard footsteps outside, and it seemed that many people had come to the vicinity.
