Mountains and Seas

Chapter 103: Highly poisonous Tibetan Gu

Views:

He just fell on his back and rolled over, using the lazy donkey roll technique to perfection, thus he managed to dodge the Taoist's fatal move of falling from the sky.

The move of "Lazy Donkey Rolling" is a commonly used move in ancient and modern times. Everyone can do it. Zhu Li learned it by himself and used it without any scruples, without paying any attention to the looks of Zhou Chenghui and the Taoist priest Yanshan.

Zhu Li is an expert after all, but he is so disregarding of his image that he even uses such a rogue move. The old Taoist can only feel aggrieved.

The old Taoist is a hermit who has mastered swordsmanship that is extremely exquisite.

Zhu Li was in a state of panic and in danger, but the more he tried, the more he refused to give up. When he was out of breath and running out of strength, the Classic of Mountains and Seas in his sea of consciousness began to vibrate, and a voice like a huge bell kept ringing out: "In the mountain of Lun, there is a tree. It is shaped like a hub and has red grains. Its sweat is like lacquer and its taste is like honey. Those who eat it will not feel hungry and can relieve fatigue. It is called white and can be like blood jade."

Something as white as lacquer or honey flashed out and condensed in the sea of consciousness. It appeared and dispersed instantly, and turned into a bright light that immersed in Zhu Li's body. Zhu Li suddenly felt refreshed, his fatigue disappeared, and his physical strength suddenly recovered. He fought again.

The old Taoist moved very quickly, to the extreme. When Zhu Li was unable to cope with it, the Classic of Mountains and Seas roared out again: "In Zhaoyao Mountain, there is a beast. It looks like a monkey with white ears. If you eat it, it will run fast."

As soon as the loud sound died down, a strange beast with a snow-white body, like a white monkey, flashed out, and then turned into a bright light, dissipated and immersed in Zhu Li's body. Zhu Li immediately felt his movements become more agile, and he ran and attacked faster, as if assisted by a god. His speed just caught up with the old Taoist, and was not inferior to him at all.

... ...

Zhu Li's perseverance and hard work surprised and shocked both Zhou Chenghui and Yanshan Laodao.

Obviously the old Taoist had drained all his strength and was about to take his life, but Zhu Li just made a slight mistake and his body shook, then he became full of energy again.

It was obvious that Zhu Li's movements could not keep up with the old Taoist's sword speed, and it was even difficult for him to resist. But in a blink of an eye, he moved as fast as flying and his speed suddenly increased. He attacked the old Taoist without slowing down at all.

These miraculous changes were simply puzzling. What was even more shocking was that the battle lasted for so long. With the frequency of Zhu Li and the old Taoist's attacks, the blood from his wounds should have dried up. However, Zhu Li's face was only slightly pale until now, with no signs of massive blood loss. This was also the result of the continuous emergence of spiritual fruits and ginseng to replenish the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but the two people outside had no way of knowing it.

This counterintuitive scene made Zhou Chenghui and Yanshan Taoist priest tremble with fear and horror.

Judging from the faces of the three men, the old Taoist who was unharmed looked even paler than Zhu Li. As for Zhou Chenghui, he had already stopped bleeding. His expression flickered and he had a gloomy face. He stood silently in the distance, as if he was looking for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow, but he never succeeded.

As the battle continued, the three men seemed to smell a faint fragrance. At first, they did not pay much attention to it, but as time went on, the fragrance became stronger, like plum orchid, and seemed to be mixed with a sweet taste, with a subtle aroma floating in the air, filling their stomachs with fragrance.

But this fragrant aroma, as soon as it entered Zhu Li's

Nostrils, the Classic of Mountains and Seas in Zhu Li's mind immediately rioted, and a grand voice sounded again: "In the Qingqiu Mountain, there is a beast, it looks like a fox with nine tails, it sounds like a baby, it can eat people, and those who eat it will not be poisoned."

In Zhu Li's sea of consciousness, a fox with nine tails quietly appeared. The bright light shattered, and the rain of light penetrated into the skin, sinking deeply into the body, as if it was setting a net inside Zhu Li's body, blocking something.

When the fragrance entered his body through his nostrils and mouth, it touched the crystal light and was instantly wiped out like white snow melting in the sun.

This strange scene made Zhu Li secretly alert. There might be something wrong with the faint fragrance. Otherwise, the Classic of Mountains and Seas would never have condensed a nine-tailed fox to dissolve the fragrance.

Moreover, as the fragrance continued to invade her body, some tiny strange insects, mixed in the wind, came quietly along the fragrance. As soon as they entered Zhu Li's body, they were annihilated and wiped out by the light spots transformed by the nine-tailed fox.

Looking at the old Taoist and Zhou Chenghui again, they felt relaxed and refreshed in the subtle fragrance, and a look of comfort appeared on their faces.

Zhou Chenghui, who was standing on the side, even took a few greedy puffs. However, as the fragrance continued to come, the old Taoist's steps gradually became slower, and even his sword-drawing speed was not as fast as Zhu Li's.

You should know that the blessings bestowed upon Zhu Li by the Classic of Mountains and Seas are generally permanent. Since, under the pressure of the old Taoist, Zhu Li's speed has increased a lot compared to before, it will not decrease any more.

The old Taoist's sword speed could not keep up with Zhu Li, which meant that he was either tired or had problems; and Zhou Chenghui, who was standing far away, was actually a little shaky and seemed to be half drunk.

"Oh no, the fragrance is poisonous, Zhu Li, you are despicable." The first person to discover the abnormality was not the Taoist master with the highest martial arts skills, but Zhou Chenghui, who had been watching the battle and standing on the side. When he found out that he was poisoned, Zhou Chenghui was immediately horrified and furious.

Following Zhou Chenghui's shouting, the old Taoist didn't bother to fight with Zhu Li anymore. He swung his sword to knock away Zhu Li's long knife, forcing Zhu Li to retreat backwards. He quickly turned around and floated away until he was several meters away from Zhu Li, then he stopped with a serious face.

The old Taoist looked unfriendly. He concentrated and used his energy to probe. His unfriendly expression changed again and instantly turned red. He pointed his sword forward and gritted his teeth and said, "He is indeed a traitor. He actually poisoned me secretly. How shameless."

Zhu Li leaned on his sword, sweating profusely. After taking a few deep breaths, he said disdainfully, "Thugs? Shameless? Haha, it's ridiculous. You two still have the nerve to rebuke me. Aren't you here to assassinate me?"

"As an assassin, you still have the nerve to call others shameless. It's really ridiculous." Zhu Li was indignant, but he was secretly concentrating. Facts proved that someone did poison him secretly. He didn't expect that tonight would be so full of twists and turns. It seems that there are many people who want to kill him.

The fight stopped quietly, and the three men each concentrated and waited with complicated expressions. At this moment, the wind broke through the air, and a woman flew like a fairy and came gracefully.

"Hehe, you two have worked hard. You have made my mission target so embarrassing. It has saved me a lot of effort. Jiaer would like to thank you very much."

As the sweet and joyful voice came from the place where the three people's voice came from, a slender woman with a white veil covering her face and a white dress as white as snow appeared in the sight of the three people.

The woman's words undoubtedly exposed her identity. It was obvious that the person who poisoned her was not

It was not Zhu Li, but the woman in front of him.

It was not until this time that Zhou Chenghui and the old Taoist priest realized that they had wronged Zhu Li. It turned out that someone secretly wanted to hunt Zhu Li down. The two of them had been busy for a long time, only to find that they had been used as a pawn.

The old Taoist looked grim. He looked at the woman in white who was flying slowly towards him and said gloomily, "Young lady, who are you? If you want to hunt Zhu Li, you don't have to include me in the plan."

"That's right. We are here to hunt down Zhu Li as well. Why would you poison us, madam?" Zhou Chenghui echoed.

"Hehe, I'm sorry. Swords and guns are blind, poisons are merciless. You two are masters. To be on the safe side, I have to inconvenience you two for a while." The woman in white smiled happily, and in her seductive laughter, there was no seductiveness, but instead a boundless chill.

"Haha, young lady, do you think this little poison can do anything to me? I can kill you with my sword before the poison explodes." The old Taoist's eyes twitched, and he spoke fiercely.

Zhou Chenghui, who was standing on the side, had already fallen silent. His eyes flickered, and he seemed to be thinking about a countermeasure.

Facing the old Taoist's murderous intent, the woman in white remained calm and composed, and rang out in a clear voice: "Master, don't waste your energy. Do you think that this is the only trick I have?"

"What? Isn't it?" Upon hearing this, the old Taoist felt even colder in his heart and blurted out in panic.

"Of course not. It is extremely poisonous. Among the poisons, there is also a poisonous worm that is unique to my Nanzhao. This kind of poisonous worm is lurking in the bodies of the three of you. It will not be fatal for the time being. As long as the three of you take action forcefully and the poison enters the blood, it will be the most deadly at that time." The woman in white raised her jade hand, stroked her right hand with her left hand, and said leisurely.

The old Taoist and Zhou Chenghui, suddenly hearing that they were not only poisoned but also poisoned by a poison insect, dared not act rashly anymore. They just stood there with gloomy faces and unwilling expressions.

The woman in white walked towards Zhu Li gracefully and said in a leisurely manner, "General Zhu Li, right? Speaking of which, I have to thank you. You single-handedly encouraged the warlords in various towns in Yangzhou to raise an army to attack Gao Pian. Gao Pian and I have a deep hatred for each other. Do you think I should thank you?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Li remained silent with a flickering expression. He got rid of Gao Pian only in the hope that the tragedy that had occurred in Yangzhou in history would not happen again, and he had not thought of anything else.

Seeing Zhu Li silent, the woman felt bored and continued, "But I have to kill you. Li Sigong promised generous conditions and asked us, Jiuzan, to do it. I was just following orders. I hope the general will not blame me."

"Jiuzan? What is that?" Zhu Li was puzzled.

"Hehe, Jiuzan is not a thing, but the highest administrative chief under my king. By the way, you people in the Central Plains call him the 'Pingguan'. Do you have any other questions? If not, I'll have to ask you to leave." The woman in white, the Nanzhao female assassin who called herself Jiaer, said as she bent down and took out two daggers from her calves.

Then, when she stood up again, she shook the dagger in her hand, stretched out her hands immediately, and grabbed the handle of the dagger with her backhand. The two daggers instantly turned into two fangs in the mouth of a poisonous python, flashed two cold blue lights, and suddenly stabbed towards Zhu Li in the chest.
