Chapter 499: Poisoning
In the courtyard where he stayed overnight, Lin Xi pulled out his long sword and used it as Meng Qi's sparring partner.
Just now, he exchanged two sword techniques from the main god to make up for the gap in his own strength, but he didn't choose to instill them directly, but just asked for the sword technique cheats.
And Lin Xi, who was not far away, was pulled over by him as a sparring partner, hoping to master these two sword techniques as soon as possible.
His movements were very slow, pausing from time to time, thinking while moving the knife, looking clumsy and jerky, and every time he was easily picked apart by Lin Xi with a long sword.
"The essence of each sword technique is to create the perception of this life, especially the perception of a top powerhouse, so while you swing the knife, you also try to comprehend it......" Lin Xi used his sword to pick the ring knife apart, and led the knife to the right trajectory, so that he could master it as soon as possible.
"Xiao Meng, have you just learned your sword technique?" Hu Daoren and Jiao Chong took turns to protect Lu Guan closely, and when they came out to breathe, they happened to see Lin Xi guiding Meng Qi to practice his sword.
"No, I'm just figuring it out. Meng Qi put away the knife and replied with a cold face and no disrespect.
Hu Daoren smiled, noncommittal, and asked instead: "Xiao Meng, you seem to have dual cultivation of swords, and Brother Xiaolin's swordsmanship is superb, why don't you see him practicing with you?"
Lin Xi smiled and said for Meng Qi: "Although his swordsmanship is average, it is very dangerous, and blood will be seen when he comes out of the sheath, so I won't guide him anything." ”
Meng Qi nodded coldly and arrogantly, acknowledging Lin Xi's evaluation of his swordsmanship.
The Tiger Road man twitched and walked to the other side.
The heroes of the rivers and lakes resting around and the sons of the Lu family couldn't hide their smiles.
Lin Xi looked at him and asked, "Do you want to continue?"
"Of course!" Meng Qi held the ring knife in his backhand and said in a deep voice: "Only by mastering it as soon as possible can we take the effective power into our own hands." ”
Lin Xi nodded, raised his long sword, and attacked him.
At this time, Ruan Yushu slipped out of nowhere and saw Lin Xi instructing Meng Qi to practice knife techniques.
She watched thoughtfully for a while: "Your sword technique is at a bottleneck?"
"Hmm. ”
Meng Qi nodded, but the movements in his hands did not stop.
At this time, Ruan Yushu no longer had any doubts about the strength of Meng Qi's sword technique, and also saw Lin Xi's insights on martial arts.
With the lyre on her back, her hands behind her back, the corners of her mouth slightly cocked, and she paced back into the room.
At this time, the son of the Lu family, who went out to buy, returned with wine and food, and her pace suddenly slowed down.
As is customary, they carefully examined the toxins and brought in a black dog to try everything.
After a while, the black dog was still unharmed, and then someone took their share of the wine and food, and left the rest for the group that was patrolling and guarding.
Meng Qi, who was pulled off by Lin Xi, was about to lean over to pick up the ring knife, but when he saw Ruan Yushu stunned there, he couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Miss Ruan, why don't you go?"
Ruan Yushu frowned slightly, with a hint of puzzlement: "It doesn't seem to be delicious, it's a little strange." ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw several people covering their throats, and Hehe made a sound, and in a blink of an eye, his face turned black and fell.
And the black dog was still alive and kicking.
"Poisoning, this poisoning ability ......" Meng Qi's pupils contracted slightly.
Lin Xi smiled contemptuously: "It's familiar, right?"
Meng Qi fell silent.
Several people in the rivers and lakes who had not eaten for various reasons threw away the wine and food in their hands like avoiding snakes and scorpions, and the courtyard was suddenly filled with the aroma of wine and the smell of meat.
"Poisonous impermanence!"
At this time, everyone in the courtyard shouted out in unison, their voices revealing obvious fear, and they each assumed a defensive posture.
The black dog happily ate the food on the ground, without any abnormality, but the heroes of the rivers and lakes who fell to the ground were bleeding and no longer breathing, and the scene was as weird as it was.
Lu Guan, Jiao Chong, and Hu Daoren also rushed to this courtyard when they heard the sound, looking at the corpses on the ground, their expressions were equally solemn.
After a long time, seeing that nothing else had changed, everyone gathered and checked the corpse, but the fear and defense in their eyes could not be concealed.
"Brother Zhongqi, what is poisonous impermanence?" Meng Qi retracted his thoughts from the last reincarnation world, pondered for a moment, and asked in a cold voice.
This kind of problem of his, which seems idiotic and eccentric, is better than his age, and it is normal.
Lu Zhongqi sighed: "Poisonous impermanence is a famous demon in Jiangnan, good at concealment and poisoning, the methods are ever-changing, weird and unpredictable, and people can't prevent it, for example, just now, the black dog is fine if he eats it, but I will be poisoned when I eat it, for example, I just fished it from the river......"
The unknown is the most frightening......
Meng Qi bowed his head slightly, just like a ghost, the kind of existence unknown to ordinary people is the most frightening thing.
If it is visible and can be killed, then everything will be a joke.
After introducing the poisonous impermanence, Lu Zhongqi began to introduce the current situation and the top masters in the martial arts to the three of them.
He said a lot in one breath, seemingly reminding the three of them to be careful of poison and impermanence, but Lin Xi could hear that he was taking this opportunity to vent his inner fear.
Although he was prepared for obstacles and dangers along the way, who would have thought that he would encounter such a terrible enemy in the first place!
After examining the corpses and food, the Hudao people found that this was a strange poison, which was ineffective for living creatures other than humans, although the toxicity was not violent enough, but it was more than enough to poison ordinary people in the rivers and lakes.
Fearing that they would be poisoned again, everyone did not eat dinner and waited for dawn hungry.
Lin Xi lay on the beam of the house and pretended to sleep, holding a folding fan in his hand, not minding the current situation at all.
Below the beams of the house is Meng Qi, who is meditating cross-legged.
At the moment, his mind was highly concentrated, listening to all directions, and the illusion Dafa was operating, and he didn't let go of any slight movement.
In the middle of the night, Lin Xi suddenly heard someone quietly get up, step out of the door, climb out of the courtyard wall, and quickly escape.
He was slightly stunned, his eyes full of disdain, but he didn't stop it.
With the first, there was a second and a third, and in just one hour, nearly twenty people escaped over the wall.
The movement was not small, and Meng Qi also heard it, and his face was very complicated.
But in the face of life and death, the so-called righteousness is not worth mentioning.
At dawn, as soon as Lin Xi walked out of the door, he heard Lu Zhongqi's angry voice: "This group of evil species! What are you talking about chivalrous and courageous, as soon as you encounter poisonous impermanence, you will fart and urine, and run away with your tail between your legs!"
At this time, in addition to a few family sons and guards, only Hudaoren, Jiao Chong and two or three heroes of the rivers and lakes remained.
Lu Guan's expression was calm, and he didn't see anger: "It's righteous anger and Lu's honor for friends to come to help, worrying about yourself, it's human nature to want to leave, it's a natural reason, and there is nothing wrong with it." ”
Then he solemnly saluted Lin Xi, Hudaoren and other remnant heroes: "This trip is dangerous, nine deaths, and I ask all friends to think carefully before setting off with Lu." ”
"Since the poor Dao has come, life and death have been put aside!" said the Tiger Dao man impassionedly.
Lin Xi pinched the folding fan and said, "Since you have decided, you naturally won't regret it!"
Meng Qi pressed the long sword, and said with a pity of gold: "Don't go!"
Ruan Yushu didn't speak, just nodded lightly, signaling that he would not leave.
