Chapter 157: Actor, Planning, and Beginning
Hearing this, the three of them had different expressions.
Li Xian was dressed in armor and had no expression, Ji Yunxi looked like an old god was behind his hands, Jiang Yu'er stood without a stand, his right leg shook slightly, and he looked at Cui Sheng with interest.
Cui Sheng didn't care about the attitude of the three of them, and with a slight wave of his hand, a small porcelain bottle appeared on the table in front of the three of them, and then the cork automatically flew up and rolled aside.
At this moment,
The three of them raised their eyebrows in unison, and their excellent eyesight allowed them to faintly see that the bottle was a pool of turquoise liquid (actually blood), and as the cork was opened, a very special fragrance of plants and trees drifted into the nostrils of the three of them along the night breeze.
Why is it special?
It was so special that it directly affected the 'green qi' in the livers of the three of them, and they all took the initiative to activate from the silent state, vibrating and feeding back the information to the brain.
Want!
Li Xian's eyelids lowered slightly, looking at the small porcelain bottle on the table.
The scent is familiar...... He had smelled this aroma in Yan Lao's shop, but the impact on him at that time was far less huge than it is now!
At the same time, there are many questions in his mind, but there is never an accurate answer, but he understands that this thing is very important, and its value is beyond his imagination!
Because whether it is the elixir or other medicinal materials that warm and nourish the five qi, in essence, it requires the martial artist to practice and warm for a long time to be effective, and the warm nourishment of the five qi is not as good as qi and blood, just by eating meat, among which the elixir plays more of an auxiliary role, essentially relying on qi to warm up.
And the 'liquid' of the porcelain vase in front of me is exaggerated just by the effect of the fragrance!
Cui Sheng took the reactions of the three into his eyes and smiled slightly: "I believe that the three of them already know the purpose of the things in this porcelain vase."
"If the three of you can take off the head of the Adversary, then ......
"As a reward, it's what is in this porcelain vase in front of you, but ...... Far more than that, the liquid in the porcelain bottle is actually less than one ten-thousandth of it!"
The three of them raised their eyebrows again like a god!
Less than one in 10,000, what kind of concept is this? It has such an effect before it is really taken, if you really want to take it, the green qi is estimated to be able to complete in an instant, or even far more, the five qi are born and restrain each other, and the five internal organs and six internal organs will be greatly benefited by this, and when the time comes, I am afraid that the realm can rise a lot!
You must know that although the Pure Yang Palace put forward the concept of the five qis, usually when the inner forging realm breaks through the unity realm, it is actually the first to cultivate the five temperatures in the body, as a help when breaking through the 'Heavenly Gate', and the cultivation is far from being complete.
The real use of the five qi is to wait for the martial artist to break through to the unity realm, because of the different exercises, the extent to which the five qi can be cultivated indirectly affects the power of the moves.
Therefore, the contents of the bottle have great temptation for both internal forging and unity.
If Cui Sheng hadn't said the latter words, Ji Yunxi and Jiang Yu'er might have gone in and out of the left ear, and it was completely inappropriate.
After all, one is a noble stomach, to do it or not, naturally it all depends on his mood, even if the treasure in front of him is precious, he will not care much, the other is much simpler, interested purely because of temperament.
Before the three of them could say anything, Cui Sheng said amazingly:
"In fact, General Li has also encountered this group of thieves before, and he has fought with them...... Kill one of them!"
"Sa-"
Feeling the gaze of the two eyes, Li Xian raised his head slightly and nodded yes.
At this moment, Ji Yunxi on the side finally became interested, and looked at Li Xian seriously, he found that this Li Baijiang was particularly interesting tonight.
What's interesting is that after he finished speaking, he lowered his eyes, looked like an ancient well without waves, and looked at the porcelain vase, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
'It's greasy. β
Ji Yunxi thought to himself, and then came another question.
'What tricks is Cui Sheng doing?'
Inexplicably, he sent his own pro-soldier lieutenant to the inn to say that he had something important to discuss, but it turned out to be this scene after he arrived.
Si Tianjian's energy, as the second prince, Ji Yunxi can be said to know it very well, if someone is really targeted by the Ministry of Public Opinion and Ghosts, it is impossible to run away, although the seven departments of Si Tianjian have their own dirt behind their backs, but in essence, it is a relationship of both glory and loss, if the truth of the matter is really as Cui Sheng said, the devil has some means to escape, is it really that simple?
The expression on Cui Sheng's face gradually became solemn and serious, and he bowed his hand very seriously, and said in a sonorous voice:
β...... So are the three of them willing to contribute to the safety of the people of Yuanye County?"
What Li Xian and Jiang Yu'er didn't notice was that the direction of Cui Sheng's hand was in front of Ji Yunxi.
As soon as the words fell, accompanied by the slight shaking of the iron pieces on the armor, Li Xian took a step forward, a pair of tiger eyes were very attentive, and the expression on his face was very subtle, with a trace of compassion and seriousness, and he hugged his fists and said:
"The methods and evil deeds of those demons are outrageous, the last general has seen it with his own eyes, and the anger in his heart is even more difficult to extinguish, as a hundred generals of the Shanzi battalion, it is really his duty to protect the people as a soldier, and the most unbearable thing is that the devil is at large!
"It is incumbent upon the people to get rid of this evil. β
Saying this, what a general for the people, his face was full of serious expressions, Ji Yunxi couldn't help but look at Li Xian, his eyes were full of brilliance, and he pondered in his heart.
To tell the truth, he wanted to recruit this Li Baijiang's moral character! The pamphlet specially presented by Xiao Guizi was very detailed about Li Xian's information, which contained Cui Sheng's cultivation of him, which showed that Cui Sheng also took a fancy to his temperament.
He has strength, is dedicated to the people, and has justice in his heart, but now he is only a hundred generals in the Shanzi Battalion, and if he follows behind this great general in the future, the future is immeasurable! As for the position of the county of Yuanye County, what is it?
As a result, Ji Yunxi's eyes looked at Cui Sheng again.
Cui Sheng naturally noticed it and smiled gently.
"Since General Cui requested, for the sake of the people of Dajin, Yun should make a contribution. β
"Yes, yes, I'll go too. "Seeing that the other two had such a 'sense of justice', Jiang Yu'er was not to be outdone and hurriedly responded.
Cui Sheng nodded with satisfaction, and patted his left and right hands lightly.
Xu Ming walked in from outside the lobby with a wooden plate in his hand, and walked straight to the three of them, only to see three golden needles on the wooden plate in his hand.
At the same time, Cui Sheng's voice sounded:
"The escaped demon has been planted with a child needle by the Demon Division, and the three of them can rely on the mother needle to find them.
"At the gate of the city, there is a ghost department to show you the way. β
Li Xian immediately made a decision and directly stepped forward to pick up a golden needle.
"It's urgent, General...... The last general set off first. After speaking, he immediately walked out of the lobby and went straight to the outside of the county office.
Subsequently, Ji Yunxi and Jiang Yu'er also picked up a golden needle and walked out.
Seeing the three of them leave, the smile on the corner of Cui Sheng's mouth was a little bright.
The two major actors are playing at the same time, and someone seems to have misunderstood the meaning.
Xu Ming looked at Cui Sheng and arched his hand: "General...... Will it offend the second prince?"
Cui Sheng slowly sat down on the chair, flicked the non-existent dust on his robe, and affirmed: "No." β
At the entrance of the county government,
Ji Yunxi's steps quickened slightly, looked at the back of Li Xian leaving in front of him, and shouted:
"General Li Bai......"
Hearing the voice, Li Xian stopped, turned his head and found that it was Yun Xi, and clenched his fists and said, "Brother Yun, what's the matter?"
"In this mission to kill the devil, Li Bai will know something about the devil, so the two of us might as well cooperate. β
Ji Yunxi straightened his waist, looked at Li Xian, and asked seriously:
However...... Will General Li Bai be able to tell the truth about this?"
Li Xian looked at the gentle smile on Yun Xi's face, pondered for a moment, and told him what happened to the Zhong Mansion that day, including the methods of the middle-aged man. (Of course, all kinds of things about Yan Lao were selectively ignored by him.) οΌ
Although the two are competitive, but when they meet several times, Yun Xi looks like a humble son, (of course, under the ring) is very friendly, and he has his own careful thoughts at this time, so he chooses to tell the truth.
Listening to Li Xian's narration, especially the tragic situation of Zhong Yuan's family of three, Ji Yunxi's face gradually became difficult to see.
And that thing...... I really can't let them go!"
As the second prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, the whole world is not the king's land, in fact, it is not wrong to exaggerate to be his people, after all, this is the world of the Ji family, not the world of the world.
Ji Yunxi was about to speak, when he heard Li Xian's words.
"But this matter, Brother Yun, I plan to handle it by myself, please forgive me if I have any helplessness!"
After speaking, Li Xian immediately turned around and ran back to his small courtyard, and then quickly ran straight in the direction of the outside of the city.
"Heyβ"
Ji Yunxi, who was watching this scene the whole time, blinked, looking at the tall back of the soldier and became angry.
Did he know what he was missing?!
The second prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, the best martial arts master in the One Realm, was rejected? Growing up so big, Ji Yunxi has never been rejected by anyone other than his father and eldest brother!
Of course, Li Xian didn't know, he only knew one thing, that is, Cui Sheng had made such an obvious conspiracy, forcing him to cut off the head of the 'mission target' before the other two.
It's just that the other two don't know the inside story and don't understand it, but in fact, the two of them are both accompaniments to a certain extent, and he is the leader, as for the consequences...... He didn't bother to think about it now.
As for why he rejected Ji Yunxi, the reason is very simple, people will follow by themselves, and ...... The most important hole cards are also not easy to play in front of people. (Except for the dead)
But before he left the city, he brought a certain tool snake with him!
"Hey...... Why don't we go together. β
Ji Yunxi turned his head, and there was a man sitting on the head of the stone statue with a dog's tail in his mouth, which was Jiang Yu'er.
"Don't ......"
"Come down! How can the stone statue of the pig sit around!"
Jiang Yu'er scratched her cheeks, her face showed an embarrassed look just right, and she jumped down with both hands.
"Hmph-"
Ji Yunxi raised his feet, as if shrinking into inches, and disappeared at the end of his sight.
"Heyβa disciple of a family who hasn't suffered hardship. β
Jiang Yu'er snorted, her eyes gurgled, and she spit out the grass roots in her mouth with a bang, looking a little excited.
"But...... Now there is some play. β
To tell the truth, this whole conversation gave him the feeling of being so scheming that he didn't even bother to hide it, as if he expected that you would definitely eat this bait.
Jiang Yu'er guessed, no! He felt that these words were actually said to the hundred generals just now. So it would be much more interesting for such a precious treasure to be related to the hundred generals who were fierce at first glance.
Treasures or something are secondary...... The point is that it's such a fun thing, and it would be a shame not to have fun.
With a gentle whistle, a little sparrow fluttered down from the night and landed on the shoulder of the river fish, chirping.
"Can you keep up?" Jiang Yu'er asked with a grin.
The little sparrow slapped its chest with one wing, as if you were relieved.
"Okay!"
I saw that a mist spread out from the feet of Jiang Yu'er, and the wind blew gently, leaving only two red lanterns swaying in front of the county yamen.
......
Time goes back half an hour ago.
Outside the county town, in a pile of messy weeds, two figures sat up abruptly.
"Ahh
The Seven Emotions Daoist let out a painful roar, only to feel that his head was in pain, and he subconsciously covered the back of his neck, and he could feel that someone had been injected with a needle in his spine.
At the same time, cold sweat poured down on the old man's old face.
Before they fell unconscious, they were still in the inn discussing countermeasures, but they all passed out somehow, and when they woke up, they were lying in a mess of grass.
In the distance, there is a black and oppressive city wall, and the lights are on, and you can faintly hear the noisy voices.
Today's 'variables' are really unexpected in their imagination, and it is reasonable that among the countless results that the two have speculated, the current situation is actually a blessing in misfortune.
But they almost didn't figure out what they were used for this chess piece.
Having said that, the purpose of coming to Yuanye County in the first place was no longer important to them, and even if the Seven Emotions Dao people knew why the plan was revealed, it would be useless.
Now they are only manipulated like marionettes, and their lives are all in the thoughts of others, how can they be the master.
This is the way of the wicked who have their own evil grinding, and the way of heaven is good reincarnation! There is nothing worthy of sympathy.
The Seven Emotions Taoist looked at the old man, his tone was a little indescribably complicated, and said, "Grandpa......"
After waking up, the old man was in a very wrong state, the black spots in his pupils became clearly visible at this time, and he sat in a daze and did not respond to the shouts of the Seven Emotions Daoist.
The Taoist looked a little subtle, and said something that made people scratch their heads.
"Come on......"
I saw that the sound of mosquitoes and insects suddenly came from the old man's body, and the cheeks suddenly became sunken, and a piece of skin and flesh disappeared directly under the right side of the face, and the figures of locusts loomed under the flesh and grass (flesh and blood sandwiched with straw).
Like the middle-aged man (father), the old man's skin is full of locusts and straw, but it is more special. Visibly starting from the ankles, the flesh and skin began to disappear little by little.
"Buzz...... Buzzing. β
The sound of the sorrow became louder and louder, which made people irritated.
And the Seven Emotions Daoist on the side always looked at all this expressionlessly.
After a while, the old man was left with only his head, and thousands of locusts were already flying densely under his body, which was a terrifying sight and terrifying.
The tattered eyeballs took one last look at the Seven Lovers and closed their eyes slightly. As if the curtain was over, the locust swarm below swarmed up, devouring the skull in the blink of an eye, but it also revealed its hidden 'true face', a different Gu insect was flying, and the blood in the compound eyes was wanton.
The golden needles in the spine also fell from the swarm to the grass, and there was no sound.
A strange scene ensued, the locusts in the sky were motionless in mid-air as if they were frozen, while the Gu worms shook their wings, shuttling through the locust swarm like a blood-colored lightning.
If you use a magnifying glass and slow down the multiple, you can see that this Gu insect is much larger than the locust, but it is full of sharp teeth and sharp teeth, and the locusts are eaten one by one in the shuttle, and the saliva flowing down is flying in the air, and the locust swarm is also visibly decreasing with the naked eye.
Time passed little by little, and the locusts that covered the sky and the sun had been eaten at all, leaving only the Gu worms that fluttered their wings in place, and the scarlet in their compound eyes became more and more demonic.
The Seven Emotions Daoist, who had been silently looking at everything in front of him, stretched out his hand...... The Gu worm consciously flew to his palm. Swallow it in one bite and keep chewing on it.
A trace of tears seemed to flash in the corner of the Taoist's eyes, and then the shadow under his feet continued to distort, and his face seemed to gradually become painful, and he didn't exhale in pain, but chewed harder.
At the same time, on the slope of an unnamed hill ten miles outside the county seat of Yuanye.
It was still the same child, hovering over the head of the huge figure.
"I can smell them. β
Behind him, the ugly-looking man smiled wickedly, and his finger bones cracked.
The child seemed a little surprised, in his imagination, the three people should not be able to leave the wilderness county.
In the night sky, a dark cloud in the distance was blown by the wind, obscuring the bright moon, and the moonlight on the ground disappeared little by little, and the ensuing darkness swallowed everything. At last...... On the dark earth, there is only the light of lanterns and candles in the county town in the distance.
The child's eyes seemed to reflect the moonlight behind the dark clouds, and he said softly:
"There's a lot going on here......
"Si Tianjian and I have dealt with me a few times, and if the three of them are discovered, there is no way to escape.
"But...... Now that they have appeared, they cannot sit idly by,
"And most importantly...... Is the dryad in their hands?
There was silence for a moment.
In fact, things have evolved to this point, and they all know the final result.
What we do now is nothing more than to make the results a little bit easier.
"Then I'll go. β
A flash of blood rose in the darkness.
"Hmm...... I'll answer you!"
"Hmmm......"
I don't know how long it took...... The dark clouds were blown away by the wind.
On the haystack, the young man of the Seven Emotions had disappeared, and was replaced by a middle-aged man who had looked about thirty years old.
The appearance is somewhat similar to the middle-aged man (father) killed by Li Xian before, but not only does it not look wooden, but it is more vicious and cunning.
β......β
"There are so many memories missing this time......"
Pupils glowing with scarlet blood appeared in the darkness.
