Chapter 334 Cruelty
Chengying was carrying at least two kinds of poison, one was the heart poison of the underworld that he had absorbed before, and the other was the purple poison from the scholar's fan that he had just absorbed.
Although I don’t know what effect the scholar’s poison has, but looking at these four people, at least three of them are using poison, I’m afraid it will be difficult to deal with.
The old man and the woman must have a good antidote from the scholar, but there is no antidote for the poison in the heart.
Zhao Yushu followed behind the two men, but was not in a hurry to catch up. The woman could not use her internal energy, and the old man could not carry her fast enough.
They are exhausted.
Soon Zhao Yushu discovered something was wrong. Jiufengshan told him that the woman had stopped and the old man continued to flee south. The other party was very smart and realized that they could not hide from Zhao Yushu in the mountains and forests, so they took the way down the mountain.
Zhao Yushu stood in front of the woman's body, silent.
The woman did not die from poison. Her head was smashed by someone. The murder weapon was probably a hard cane.
When the four of them besieged him, they cooperated very well and it was not a temporary team.
Companion.
Zhao Yushu sighed and slapped the ground beside him, creating a big hole.
"From dust to dust, be a good person in your next life."
The corpse was covered with mud, and Zhao Yushu felt a little lost. The old man was very fast. As a sixth-level cultivator, his speed was naturally not slow. Even if Zhao Yushu tried his best to catch up with him now, he was afraid that he would not be able to stop him before he went down the mountain.
But it doesn’t matter, at least the scribe provided two key words before he died.
Xiangzhou, Caobang.
The Cao Gang is generally an ordinary local gang. Even if there are cultivators, there are not many of them. Naturally, it is impossible for them to take out two earth-level treasures as a reward to buy their lives.
So the Cao Gang was just a cover.
So who is behind this?
If this problem is not solved, Zhao Yushu feels that he cannot go to Yuezhou with peace of mind, as that will only attract endless killers to Lan Ling and the others.
Since you want to kill me, you must be prepared for my revenge.
The old man hid in a very embarrassing manner. They did not underestimate Mr. Liu and even inquired about his way of doing things relatively seriously. Otherwise, they would not have come up with such a dirty trick as using a mortal to poison him.
But the other party's vigilance was too high, forcing them to face the enemy head-on.
They couldn't wait any longer because the area they had divided only went up to Jiufeng Mountain. Beyond here, it would be the area for other people.
Thanks to the cooperation among the four of them over the years, they did gain the upper hand in one move, but that was just the upper hand.
The opponent is the Sixth Master of the Academy. Regardless of his skills, he has numerous magic weapons, including the indestructible sword, the invisible dagger, and the golden light that can easily see through his most proud invisible poison fog.
There is no chance of winning, absolutely no chance of winning.
Almost all of his companions were knocked down with one move. They were all at the same fifth level, so why were those at the fifth level of the academy so powerful?
I don't want to kill you, but you can't run away by yourself. If I take you with me, none of us can escape. If you live, people will definitely ask where we are hiding. I can't do anything about it.
The old man walked faster. He wanted to leave Jiufeng Mountain as soon as possible. There was something strange about this mountain. It seemed that every tree was looking at him. This feeling was not good.
As long as you leave Jiufeng Mountain and escape to Nanyang, that is the territory of those people. They have higher cultivation, more people, and more brutal methods.
Although he couldn't get the treasure, at least he could save his life.
The old man looked back with lingering fear, and a green whirlwind swept across him, rushing madly to the south.
Zhao Yushu did not pursue further.
A person in the Sixth Heaven who is trying only to escape for his life, if no one is watching him, he can hide in any corner and may not even die.
Zhao Yushu randomly found an inn in a small town to stay in. He carefully recalled the whole process, trying to find all the unreasonable things.
The other party initially wanted to poison the food. Although this trick was crude, it was very practical. It was impossible for me to never touch other people's water and food. As long as there was a slight chance, they could seriously injure me. Of course, they didn't know that I had Chengying, a magical weapon that loved to eat toxins.
But bandits appeared to block the road.
Their acting was poor, but they had to resort to this desperate measure. There was only one reason for this: if they dragged it on, they would not have a chance to take action later.
Zhao Yushu scratched his head. What’s the matter? You killers also have territories.
If I take a detour now and take the small roads, I might be able to avoid the next wave of killers. Then I can sneak into Xiangzhou and attack Huanglong directly, killing them by surprise.
However, after fighting with these four people, Zhao Yushu discovered some problems, that is, his practical experience was still not rich enough. Before, he was more likely to bully weak players or fight one-on-one, and seldom fought with such a well-coordinated team. In group battles, he only relied on footwork to move around and defeat them one by one. This was not good.
How about challenging yourself?
Zhao Yushu, you are so arrogant! Don't you care about your life anymore?
Old Zhao slapped himself hard, spread out the letter paper and wrote a letter to the academy, explaining that he had been offered a bounty and reminding other people in the academy to pay attention to safety, especially the safety of his third senior brother.
Fortunately, Mr. Ge has arrived, so Ji Leng and A Yao’s safety should be fine.
The next morning, when Zhao Yushu finished breakfast and walked out of the inn, he finally realized that he seemed unable to bypass the killer and go straight to Xiangzhou.
A donkey cart was moving slowly back and forth in the town, and onlookers filled the streets.
The two yamen runners shouted in fear at the crowd not to come closer, but did not try to stop the driver.
The driver had only one arm, one eye and one ear.
There was a dead body in the car with a large mole on its chin.
Zhao Yushu pushed through the crowd and walked forward. He ignored the guards' attempts to stop him and grabbed the donkey cart. "What happened?"
The driver stared at Zhao Yushu blankly, and with his only arm trembling, he took out a piece of paper from his bosom: "God, half of us were killed, and the remaining half had one arm chopped off and one eye blinded. They, they asked us to look for you in all the surrounding towns. If we find you, we will give you this."
Zhao Yushu tried hard to suppress his anger. These people were from the caravan that had conspired to harm him before. He had taught them a lesson with silver needles, but he didn't expect to be treated like this the next moment.
They are looking for themselves in this extreme way.
Zhao Yushu shook the paper open and silently read the brief content on it. Then he exerted force on his hand and turned the letter into ashes: "Go find a doctor yourself."
Zhao Yushu slung his sword across his shoulder and strode onto the official road.
"I suddenly heard that Mr. Liu was visiting. I am very honored and afraid that I cannot fulfill my hospitality. I specially invite Mr. Liu to have a drink at my home. I hope Mr. Liu will do me the honor. I present this to Cheng Yuanxiang."
The letter did not mention what would happen if Zhao Yushu did not go. Perhaps he would kill more people to force himself?
The fact that the other party left his address and name so carelessly showed that he was fearless and was absolutely sure that he could defeat me. How could he be so sure?
Zhao Yushu no longer took a detour.
Zhao Yushu never evades.
