Nightwatcher Chapter 509

Published at 21st of April 2023 06:44:03 AM

Dragon God castle is built on the curved dragon river 20 miles away from Yongzhou City, where there is a prosperous town - curved dragon town.

The Dragon God castle is the earth emperor in the eyes of the people of the town and surrounding villages. In the eyes of the people, the words of the Dragon God castle are more effective than those of the government.

The width of the river is more than 20 feet, and the water transport business is developed. The only Wharf in the town is controlled by the Dragon God castle. By this dock, longshenpu is rich in oil.

There are so many people who depend on the Dragon God castle to eat. Because of this, when people in the town encounter disputes, they like to find the "superior" Dragon God castle to deal with them.

As time goes by, even the law and order of the town has been controlled by the Dragon God castle...

Contemporary Castle Lord Lei is just a hot temper. He can't rub the sand in his eyes. He attaches great importance to the rules and deals with things impartially.

He won the reputation of "Lei Gong".

Lei Zheng, the "Lei Gong", is good at using broadswords. He has five grades of martial arts. Different from the Gongsun family leader, he is a boring man who is not close to women.

I only like to practice Dao every day. I dive into the bottom of the river with a machete and wave it. I will never go ashore if I don't wave it 500 times.

People in the town say that if one day they see a section of the river rough, it must be Lei Gong practicing his sword in the river.

Dragon God castle, in the lobby.

Lei Zheng took a sip of tea and touched the machete at hand. His voice was buzzing:

"I'm going to practice Dao. What's the matter with you? To make a long story short, don't disturb me to practice Dao."

Lei Zheng is just over 50 this year. He is 1.9 meters tall. He has a bald head. He has muscles all over his body. His physique is stronger than that of young people. The feeling is that the kind of a word will not carry a knife to chop people.

In fact, he did.

On the side of Lei Zheng's body is Gongsun Xiangyang, a young playboy who loves women. He says with a smile:

"how long have you practiced Dao for so many years, how long can you get into the fourth grade?"

Ray is cold face way: "this has nothing to do with you."

Gongsun Xiangyang said: "I have to guard against you. One day you will be promoted to the fourth grade. What if you cut me off?"

The history of Longshen castle is shorter than Gongsun family. When the ancestors of Longshen Castle came to Yongzhou to fight the world, they often had conflicts with Gongsun family.

The children of the two sides fought day by day, causing a lot of lives. Later, because of the large scale of the regiment war, it affected the people and had a very bad impact on the public security of Yongzhou. The Yongzhou city government intervened and mediated.

Of course, that was more than 200 years ago. Today, although there are still frictions between the two sides, they are within a reasonable range.

"Something's wrong in the grave."

Gongsun Xiangyang's words dispelled Lei Zheng's intention to see off the guests. The muscular bald Castle owner frowned slightly:

"what does this have to do with me?"

The big tomb in Nanshan has been occupied by Gongsun family. Based on tacit understanding, Longshen castle will not interfere in it unless Gongsun family takes the initiative to invite it.

Gongsun Xiangyang tells Lei Zheng the situation at the bottom of the tomb and the story of an expert in Qingyi.

Lei Zheng's eyes are round, just like Gongsun Xiangyang, who has just heard the news, raising the sense of crisis that shells have been buried at the door.

After calming down, he stares at the Gongsun family coldly: "how can I believe you?"

Gongsun Xiangyang said slowly:

"you can go down to the tomb and have a look, well, if you are not afraid of death. I've found out the residence of the expert. It's in Ju restaurant. He asked Gongsun's family to watch Nanshan. Nanshan is too big. If they want to watch it closely, they need a lot of hands.

"The Dragon God castle and the Gongsun family live in Yongzhou. You can't stay out of it. Besides, what I said is true or false. Let's go and visit the expert in person, and we'll know. "

Lei Zheng hummed coldly: "you want to go by yourself, but you don't dare to, so you pull on me to share the risk."

Gongsun Xiangyang laughed and didn't retort.

Lei Zheng holds the knife and gets up, "wait here for an hour, I'll go with you after practicing the knife."

"Why don't you look down on that man?"

"Oh, if you are an expert, it's up to you to say it!"

Lei Zheng maintains a skeptical attitude. After all, he has neither been to the tomb nor eaten crabs in yangbai lake. Just by Gongsun Xiangyang's words, it seems to scare him?

Gongsun Xiangyang said he was an expert, but he didn't say the poem. Otherwise, Lei Zheng's attitude will be much more correct.

......

restaurant.

At the table, there are some fresh poisonous herbs, some porcelain vases and five Liang sesame seeds. Xu Qi'an asks the shopkeeper for the medicine pot and throws the poisonous herbs into it to smash.

Then pour in the venom and continue to pound.

Sitting by the window, mu Nanzhi sniffed and frowned: "what's the smell? It's so bad."

"Open the window for ventilation, I'm making poison pills," Xu said

As he spoke, he grabbed a handful of sesame seeds and sprinkled them into the pot.

Princess Yiyan opened the window, but she did not take the opportunity to breathe fresh air, but went to the table and sat down, arrogantly patted off Xu Qi'an's hand, grabbed the pot.She dipped some venom into her fingertips and sucked it in her little mouth. Then she "barked" and licked her lips:

"these poisonous herbs are not so powerful, they don't help you much. The venom of snakes tastes good."

For the flower god, poisonous grass is also grass, poisonous flower is also flower, and there is no difference between ordinary flowers and plants.

Xu Qi'an calls for experts, and the two start to discuss it, as if they are discussing a common favorite food.

"this time I went to Palace of the Earth to look for ancient corpses, borrowed some venom, and the essence of thousands of years of corpses, which can stimulate the poison and stimulate them to a great extent."

As Xu Qi'an said, he took out the jade bottle containing the ancient corpse venom and pulled out the plug.

"It's too strong."

Mu Nanzhi covered her nose and slipped away.

Xu Qi'an tilted the small jade bottle, poured out the thick bluish black liquid slowly and dropped it into the jar.

In an instant, the grass dregs in the tamping pot were dyed into deep blue and black. Just look at the color, you can think of toxicity.

Then, he put the pot on a small carbon stove and roasted it gently until it was slightly dry.

The next thing to do is to make them into small pills and take one every day.

The venom of the ancient corpse is too fierce. At the present level, it can't bear excessive toxicity at one time, otherwise it will be poisoned to death.

After the small pills are ready, Xu Qi'an puts them on the table one by one and dries them naturally.

The air is full of toxins. If ordinary people were here, no more than one cup of tea would be poisoned to death.

Mu Nanzhi sat by the window, rolling her eyes and reading the idle books she bought in the downtown street.

At this time, the door knocked, and the voice of the waiter came: "my guest, there are two gentlemen looking for you."

Looking for me?

Xu Qian a Leng, tone calm reply shop small two: "who?"

The shopkeeper said, "one of them calls himself Gongsun Xiangyang, the other calls himself Lei Zheng."

Gongsun Xiangyang, a member of the Gongsun family? Who is Lei Zheng?... Xu Qian pondered for a moment and said, "please let them in."

He guessed that Gongsun Xiangyang was a person of high rank in the Gongsun family, or the head of the Gongsun family.

According to the rules, a hermit expert who has been in the world for eight hundred years is here. Gongsun's family is just a force in the Jianghu. If you want to visit, you must be a highly respected member of the family.

It's impossible to send a younger generation or a small person in the family.

Most of all, it must be Gongsun Xiu, the successor of the family.

As for Lei Zheng, Xu Qi'an has never heard of this figure, but since he came here with Gongsun's family, he should also be a person with a head and a face.

"Do you want me to go to the back of the screen?" The princess raised her eyes and looked over.

"No, go and pull the bolt."

The princess skimmed her mouth, shook the young woman's plump and attractive buttocks, went to the door and pulled the bolt.

In a moment, two footsteps stopped outside the door. Then, a mellow voice said respectfully:

"elder, I'm the master of Gongsun's family, Gongsun Xiangyang."

Xu Qian light way: "the door is not locked."

When the door opened, a middle-aged man in Royal dress came in. He had a smile on his face and obvious crow's feet around his eyes. It was a wrinkle caused by habitual smile.

Another old man was a burly man with a machete on his back. He had a bald head and a fierce temperament. He gave the impression of being fierce and difficult to get along with.

"Lord of Dragon God castle, Lei Zheng."

The bald old man's voice is loud and powerful.

Xu Qi'an nodded slowly and raised his hand to indicate: "sit down."

At this moment, his eyes are gentle, his eyes contain the vicissitudes of time, his attitude is calm, but he has a natural dignity.

It's a pity that two patches of white are missing from the temples.

Gongsun swept the room quietly, glanced away from Dafeng's first beauty, and sat down with reserve and caution.

Lei Zheng is about to appear a lot careless, looking at Xu Qi'an's eyes full of examination.

He had already been to the underground palace and only made a circle around the periphery. After all, he did not venture into the main tomb. Therefore, he was always dubious about Gongsun Xiangyang's words.

"Thank you for saving my daughter's life. The Gongsun family will take good care of Nanshan and prevent anyone from entering the tomb."

Gongsun Xiangyang is also the first time to see an expert. His curiosity is no less than Lei Zheng's. He looks at him vaguely, but he doesn't see anything strange about this expert.

But that's why it's more respectful.

Lei Zheng said tentatively, "master, what's the identity of the ancient corpse in the underground palace?"

Xu Qian's voice is gentle: "it's just a small person."

Gongsun Xiangyang was just about to speak when he suddenly twitched his nose. With dizziness, he stood up in surprise:

"yes, poisonous......"

Lei Zheng also stood up and stepped back. They turned their eyes to the small black ball on the table.What is it? Just the smell, I can't bear it.

When it comes to Wupin Huajin, most poisons in the world can be detoxified by powerful liver function. I'm afraid that one of these pills will kill Wupin.

Xu Qian's tone was mild and apologetic: "I just made a few poison pills, and I'm going to take them as snacks. I'll put them away."

After that, he twisted a ball, put it into his mouth and chewed it carefully.

Eat, eat down..... Gongsun Xiangyang numb, face stiff, back cold.

Lei Zheng's pupils contracted violently, and his cold hair stood up all over his body. His panic was explosive in an instant.

The two five grade masters stare at Xu Qi'an, his mouth and his throat. When they see the Adam's apple rolling, it means that the ball has been swallowed.

Why take poison pills as snacks? No, that's not the point. The point is that he is really a terrible figure and a top expert in seclusion.

Gongsun Xiangyang didn't cheat me...... Lei Zheng was deeply shocked. He quickly reviewed his attitude and felt worried and chagrined for his previous contempt. He was afraid that it would cause the dissatisfaction of this seemingly gentle expert.

"All right!"

Xu Qi'an put the jade vase in his arms.

In fact, in terms of real combat power, he can't beat Wupin unless he has a way to pour poison directly into the stomach of Wupin masters.

In addition to poison, he lacks effective means to break through copper and iron.

Of course, the martial arts can't beat him either, because the seven Jue Gu's methods are treacherous and there are too many ways to be invincible.

When I digest all these poison pills, I should be able to win five products......

"it's just right that even if you don't come, I'm going to visit you."

Gongsun Xiangyang and Lei Zheng looked at each other, the former immediately respectfully asked: "I don't know what I can do for you."

Xu Qi'an looked at them with warm and calm eyes:

"I'd like to ask you to help me hold the Yongzhou Wulin conference in a month and a half."

This is the way he came up with not long ago. Instead of aimlessly looking for the Dragon Gas host, he should try to get them together and catch them all.

Although the Wulin conference is for people in the rivers and lakes, it is human nature to join in the fun. There will surely be people from good families to join in the event.

The reason why Gongsun family and longshenbao are entrusted to take the lead is to keep a low profile. He has to guard against Xu Pingfeng's backhand, so hiding behind the scenes is the best choice.

As for the time to be set in a month, it is because of the spread of the news and the inconvenience of transportation. It will certainly take a lot of time for people from all over Yongzhou to come to Yongzhou after receiving the news.

"Can you ask me why

Gongsun Xiangyang said tentatively.

... Xu Qi'an originally wanted to say that it would be mysterious to suppress the ancient corpses with the "power" of the heroes in Yongzhou. But when I think about it, as a Gaoren who got eight hundred years old, it still needs the help of Yongzhou heroes to suppress the ancient corpses.

It's very low-level in itself, no style.

So he gave a faint smile: "because it's interesting."

Gongsun Xiangyang and Lei Zheng were speechless for a moment.

He and Lei Zheng chatter on and on. Xu Qi'an drinks tea and listens in with a smile.

Half an hour later, the two of them got up and left.

Waiting for two people to leave, mu Nanzhi looked at him and asked: "were you just playing Wei Yuan?"

Xu Qi'an ignored it and said, "let's leave Yongzhou City tomorrow and go around Yongzhou."

...

Fuyang county.

The little mare was led by the owner, walking, dragging on the horse's back, from the most handsome man to the most beautiful woman.

Mu Nanzhi sat on the horseback, looking left and right, this is not a very rich small county, whether it is the streets of disrepair, as well as the same age of housing, are showing this.

Pedestrian's clothing is not bright enough, style and material are more common.

But the yellow rice wine of Fuyang county is famous throughout Yongzhou.

Xu Qi'an came here to drink, and the princess also liked to drink, so she readily agreed that they would go around the world, eating and drinking wherever they went.

Through a small river, the river has a stone bridge, white walls and black tiles, small bridge water, if there is misty rain, beautiful woman with oil paper umbrella, it will be perfect.Xu Qi'an led the little mare to a stone bridge, and suddenly heard a cry from a distance:

"someone's diving, someone's diving!"

He and the princess looked sideways, upstream, a woman with drinking water ups and downs, the situation is particularly critical.

Pedestrians on both sides of the Strait either pointed or found bamboo poles to reach out to the women, trying to rescue them.

The woman choked a few mouthfuls and twisted her face. She tried to save herself, but the current was so fast that she couldn't get water. The more she splashed, the more water she choked.

Gradually, there was only half a life left.

"Help people, help people..."

when people in the distance saw someone at the end of the bridge, they immediately yelled.

Jump down the bridge, grab the woman's shoulder, tiptoe on the water, and return to the shore... Xu Qi'an completes a series of operations in his mind, and then jump down the bridge.

"Plop!"

He dashed into the cold water and swam hard towards the woman.

None of the seven abilities of seven Jue Gu can fly.

With so many people around him, Xu Qi'an gave up the idea of using the dark poison to save people in full view of the public.

Sometimes, the vulgar martial arts can be more elegant than other systems... The moment he picked up the woman in the water, Xu Qi'an felt this way.

"Young man, hold the bamboo pole!"

An old man stood on the bank and stretched out a bamboo pole to Xu Qian.

With the help of the old man and passers-by, Xu Qian grabs the bamboo pole and is pulled ashore with the woman.

The woman choked and lost her mind.

She was a very pretty little woman with a pale face and pretty features.

Xu Qian slapped her on the back.

"Ouch..."

the woman spat a lot of water, and her lethargy was restored, but instead of the joy of escaping from the dead, she began to cry.

"Let me die, I'll die clean, please..."

she covered her face and cried.

"Isn't this Zhang's daughter-in-law?"

"What kind of water to jump in."

"Alas, she is a poor man..."

the people around her murmured.

PS: if there is a wrong word, change it first and then change it.
