Immortal Devil Transformation
Chapter 38: Wishing This Night
“Since then, the College has been targeting the West and setting up a lot of things. ”
Lin Xie laughed at herself in her heart. Until then, he understood why Anchor had left the college early.
The more so, the more he felt he was still a very small fish in the river.
“What if we all got quicksand, teacher, how many people can you save with the antidote?” Lin Xi's divine colour got serious and looked seriously at Anchoy and asked.
Anchor reached out: “Three. ”
Looking at Angkor's three onion-like fingers, Lin Xi did not have half a sense of indifference and smiled bitterly and thought, this antidote is indeed very little.
“Teacher, since you can smell some sand scorpion poison, can't you use it to determine where the people who smell the moon are in the city?” Linghan couldn't help but ask.
Angkor shook his head, “The smell of 'skeleton' made from sand scorpion poison is also extremely faint. It can only be judged by the slightly green colour. I can see it in front of me… I sense the 'skeleton’ configuration, but it is only in a normal empty room by the river. ”
“That means the smell of sand scorpion is quite special, teacher, but the sand scorpion poison has been refined.” Lin Xi looked at Anchoy and said: “That means that the other party may do it at any time. ”
“‘Skeleton’ and ‘quicksand’ are two highly toxic substances that can only be refined by Grandson Springs.” Anchor Yi softly, bluntly said: “In the past month and more, the college has determined that Sun Quan is in this area, maybe Guiyunxiang Province is sitting by him, but he has been out there secretly, and the college doesn't know exactly how he looks... and some of the poison he refined will flow from here to other parts of Yunqin. Sand scorpion poison has a unique smell of rot, but in ventilation, as long as it lasts more than four hours, I can't feel it, so Sun Quan must have refined some poison within four hours. ”
Lin Xi thought about it and said: “When the two of us meet together, we can solve the problem by doing one thing... This smells like the grandson spring of the general, but he is also lazy. But if we're all careful not to go out and eat outside, it's not good. ”
Angkor looked seriously at Lin Xi and asked, "Why? ”
“With all this poison and detoxification, Grandson Springs is no better than your teacher. Otherwise, the Academy wouldn't have sent you out against him.” Lin Xi looked at Ankoei and said: “But the defense is always harder than the reckoning, and the college must want the teacher to pull out this nail, and suffer from eternal illness… because such a practitioner who can refine dramatic poison is more influential than a saint in this West War, no one knows how many practitioners will die as a result of the poison spilled out of his hands. If he thinks we have obvious precautions, can't do it... or too few times, I'm sure you can't find him either. After all, we don't even know what he looks like... maybe he just walked right under our noses, and we don't know. ”
Angkoye's eyebrows slightly wrinkled. She knew Lin Yi had a point, but how to find out Grandson Springs, she couldn't figure out a good way. After a moment of thinking, she still looked at Lin Yi and shook her head. “Do you want to lure Grandson Springs out with bait? Since he has not even revealed his physical appearance and posture over the years, he is a very cautious and lifeless man. Poisoning a man like him can be done in many ways, and if he doesn't succeed, he won't show up, and if he finds out someone like me exists, he won't necessarily disappear or leave. ”
Gao Yanan and Ben Linghan nodded silently.
Even a royal sword saint or a wind pedestrian like Zhuwei kills, the flying sword and arrow always have some traces, and can always be seen at the time of the attack. However, using poison to kill with the means of a man like Sun Quan, nobody knows when or under, it is simply impossible to find a careful poisoner who has no idea of his face from among the hundreds of thousands of people in the city.
Lin Xi also deeply raised his eyebrows, but unlike Gao Yanan and others, he always felt there was an anchor, the other party was already ready to attack them, and his special abilities have not been used today, there should always be a way to find this person.
How the hell do we get this unknown face, possibly the innkeeper, possibly the cook, possibly a passing beggar, possibly an old man, possibly a young man, possibly even a woman's grandson spring?
Lin Xi tried to think that the whole room was in silence for a moment.
……
……
In the northeast corner of Hourglass, there is a famous winery called the Star Picking Building.
The star picking building brings together the wisdom of some of the most famous carpenters in Hourglass, and all nine floors are constructed in the form of wood rivets, without a nail, which is amazing.
At this moment, in an elegant room on the ninth floor, a skinny middle-aged man with a very clean beard was drinking alone against several delicate dishes, and his eyes were not on the stars in the sky, but on the pine boulders in the distant night.
Apart from the fact that his cheekbones were particularly prominent because of his lean skin, his face was not very different from that of most of the natives of Waterpark, very ordinary, but his fingernails were a little too thick and had some shrinking curls, which made his ten fingers look a little like paws, which suddenly made his breath a little strange and pungent.
Footsteps sounded at the entrance of this studio, followed by a knock.
“Come in.” The middle-aged gentleman tapped his finger gently on the glass in his hand and made a slight noise.
A pot of the star-picking building's signature bamboo shoots came in.
Chopsticks clamped a piece of the tenderest fish eye flesh and slowly chewed it with a delicious sour yellow shoots. After eating it, the middle-aged man took out a white handkerchief and rubbed it on the corner of his mouth, then let go, leaving the white silk handkerchief to fall and float in the thick and slight night of Marquis City.
In a distant night market, there is a small stall selling bamboo. The staller is a prudent, honest, middle-aged man about forty years old.
His eyes were always unintentionally looking at the window of the star picking building, and no one else saw that light white silk handkerchief floating in the air at the moment, but he saw it.
Then he silently put away a stall that few people had asked about, and walked towards an alley.
Upstairs, the middle-aged skinny monk turned the fish over, picked out the other tenderest piece of fish eye meat, and chewed it in his mouth with a sour yellow shoots. Then he put down his chopsticks, as if he was no longer interested in the expensive signature dishes of the star picking building, luxury to the whole pot of large dishes he just wanted to eat those two small pieces of meat and two small pieces of sour shoots.
He didn't drink any more, just took a cup of tea and rinsed his mouth.
Then he revealed his gratification and sarcasm, because without any wine companion present, he raised his head slightly, looking at the stars in the sky, and whispered to himself: "Anchoy... my poisoning and detoxification skills naturally cannot compare to those of the youngest generation of you, the Qing Dynasty of the College of Medicine. But this is war, not fairness. How could you possibly take advantage of me? ”
“Though you are great, like the Empire of Yunqin, the bigger you are, the easier it is to have traitors… Unlike me, in order to fight you, all those who have revealed my identity in no way have been killed by me. So I know you're in there with your escort, but you can't possibly know who I am or even know someone like you are in this team. ”
“As now, I can poison all of you without fear, yet you can't be as unscrupulous as I am... and you don't know that I have an apprentice who can do these things for me, so from the beginning, Green College and you can't beat me. I have stood undefeated. ”
“Wish me that night. ”
The middle-aged, skinny monk had washed his mouth and stopped drinking, but after a few words, his eyes were greased with some warmth and fanaticism, and he drank another drink and then poured a glass of wine from the night sky toward the area of his somber residence, softly saying: “This must be a wonderful night. ”
“We will win! ”
Again he bowed to the western sky, to the place where his life and the respected man were, * interwoven with fanaticism, and said in his heart.
Wine turns into wine and floats on the roof of the star picking building.
The hustle and bustle of Marquis City just started before midnight.
In the eastern corner of the city, there was a forest called the Kong Ming lamp, and what the world called the flame lamp floated and flew to high altitude.
Many people in Marquis City discovered that the lamp cover of this flashlight was rare and green, flashing strange phosphorescence in the night sky, and some people couldn't help but point out the novelty.
