Chapter Eighty-Five: Poisoning
After a long time of wandering, Xu Ping'an and the others finally met an official merchant ship on this Grand Canal.
The merchant ship was brightly lit and silent, and several sails were hunted by the east wind, which looked quite infiltrating, and there was not a single human figure in the nearby river, not even a soldier on the official ship, and it was lifeless.
It felt like a ghost ship that didn't stop anywhere.
"Childe, there seems to be no one on the boat?" Li Ji said in surprise.
"There is silence all around, there is no trace of Uncle Yu at all, and the official ship does not move, be careful, no accident, King Kong Lux must be around here. Xu Ping'an said.
In this way, the two waited for half a pillar of incense.
Suddenly, a figure suddenly jumped up on the official ship, and it was very fast, and it flashed away on the deck, like a ghost fire.
Li Ji scratched his head and said, "Childe, is it haunted?"
"Peng!"
Xu Ping'an knocked on his head fiercely: "Ghost, you big-headed ghost, where did you get the bull head and horse noodles in the earth in this world, go, go up and take a look." ”
"Hey, hey, hey!"
"Go ghost hunting. ”
“......”
The two rowed a small boat and took advantage of the night to go around to see if there was any ambush, and then approached the official boat.
Except that it was too quiet, there was nothing special about it.
The two of them moved like cunning rabbits, and climbed onto the merchant ship several meters high.
The ship was so large that there were a few hundred and eighty people on the deck alone, and the lights were bright, making the ship the only light on the river.
The ship was empty, some of them were miscellaneous ropes or something.
"Childe, this is not like a ship transporting official salt, no one doesn't say it, there is no goods yet!" Li Ji said.
"Say it with you!" Xu Ping'an said angrily, then squatted down and wiped the deck with his hands, bringing up a little silt.
"The mud is wet, someone must have been here, maybe even those water ghosts from the ghost docks. ”
Li Ji heard what he said, a pair of copper bells scanned the four directions, and his body was tense and ready to shoot at any time.
Xu Ping'an patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be so nervous, if someone really ambushes us, we will shoot when we get on the boat, why wait until now." ”
"Let's go inside. ”
With that, the two of them walked towards a pavilion at the back of the merchant ship, where the lights were bright, and where the figure had just disappeared.
Pushing open the door, a cold wind blowing on the river blew, making Xu Ping'an shake, and inexplicably made his bones a little cold.
It was like a council hall, with many seats, and even the dust on them, and when I turned my head and threw up a beaded curtain, I saw an incense burner on top of the stool, and a lot of foggy white smoke was wafting out at this time.
The smoke is filled, and there is a faint sandalwood fragrance, which is refreshing.
If it weren't for the Grand Canal, Xu Ping'an would still think that he was in some Fengyue place.
"It's still nothing, what the hell is going on here. His brows twitched in confusion, and he looked around but couldn't find even a trace of official salt.
Suddenly, his eyes flashed, and he saw that some small blood-red spots appeared on Li Ji's neck and the Heavenly Spirit Cover, and what he didn't see when he entered the door suddenly appeared.
"Han Dun'er, what's wrong with you, so many blood-red spots on your neck!" Xu Ping'an's face became solemn, and he felt that something was wrong.
Li Ji Tongling's eyes widened, and he let out a bad breath, and said, "Childe, you are too." ”
"Sting!"
He then ripped off the garment from his shoulders with one hand, and many blood-red spots appeared on his shoulders as well.
Mei Yu twisted deeply: "We are poisoned, and the blood-red spots are all growing in the key places of acupuncture points and tendons, not to mention the use of internal force, even if we use heavy strength, we will have to break the tendons and veins, and the blood will flow backwards and die." ”
Li Ji tried to use his internal force, and the blood-red spots on his shoulders, neck, and even the Heavenly Spirit Cover began to deepen in color, and they were still spreading.
Suddenly, he was in a sharp pain, like ten thousand insects gnawing at his body.
Xu Ping'an immediately made a move, according to the twenty-eight acupoints of the medical scriptures that Li Guiyao had taught him, his fingers continued to poke out, and as soon as he touched Li Ji's body, a subtle sound in the flesh and blood came out, and finally he continuously clicked on the three air points and the five major acupoints, so that he could stop the spread of Li Ji's red spots.
After he finished doing it, he felt dizzy, and his qi and blood were boiling, as if he was about to break through his skin at any time, and the same pain as Li Ji just now instantly swept over his body.
"Childe, you!" Li Ji was a little panicked.
"It's fine. He frowned deeply, grabbed the handle of the pear blossom chair next to him with one hand, and actually imprinted a few finger prints on it, which was extremely terrifying.
Then his eyes looked around, and finally locked on the incense burner.
He shook his head and couldn't figure out how it was poisoned, and he didn't have time to think about it: "Han Dun'er, get out of here!"
"Then the King Kong Lux said to besiege and kill the two, I'm afraid it's us. ”
"Whoa!"
At this time, there was a sound of rushing water around the official ship, as if it was rolling something, and finally dozens of water ghosts jumped up from one of them, all biting *** in their mouths, with hooks and locks for climbing boats on their shoulders, and they made an appointment with the official ship with a bang.
Not only that, but there are also several sturdy men with ** upper bodies hanging on that huge sail, and they all have tattoos on their shoulders, which are the nine-faced Buddha.
The eyes of these people are as dazzling as tigers and wolves, their toes lightly tap on the canvas but they are like feet on the ground, and their breathing is very regular.
Seeing this scene, Xu Ping'an secretly said carelessly!
These people are all wet, and they are also lurking at the bottom of the Grand Canal, covering their own breath with the rapid flow of water, otherwise it is impossible to escape Li Ji's perception.
"Hehe, Xu Shaoxia, Li Daxia, I have admired the name for a long time!"
A joking voice came, and I saw the man who spoke hanging high on the top of the sail, standing above the heads of all the Vajra Lux, shirtless, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and knotted muscles, giving people a great impact.
Not only that, but he was blind in one eye, and he looked even more impressive.
gave birth to a reckless image, but it is definitely not comparable to those ordinary people who walk the rivers and lakes, and being able to sit in the position of the leader of King Kong Lux shows his means.
This person is Ji Chang!
Xu Ping'an asked Li Ji not to support himself, endured the pain of blood spots, stood with his hands in his hands, and said with a smile: "You guys are really competing for brains, in order to lure us up, you don't hesitate to deign to hide a stick of incense at the bottom of this river." ”
"Hahaha, I like smart people like you!" Ji Chang raised his head and laughed.
"It's just that I don't understand who gave us this poison, and it is impossible for us not to be aware of such a poison that penetrates into the flesh and blood. ”
"The smoke in the incense burner just now is not poisonous, but just an introduction!"
Xu Ping'an said as he looked around, thinking about a way to escape.
Even the ancient words are constantly emerging in the mind, and the medical scriptures that Li Guiyao once taught jumped in his mind, hoping to find some way to detoxify.
