Chapter 679 The evil thing in the lake
The two of them entered Jiangnan City to spy on the Governor's Mansion of Jiangnan. Of course, it was not for the purpose of assassination, but for a serious visit. Mo Yunzi had already conveyed his intention to meet with him through Yun Canghai's relationship. Of course, in order to avoid exposing their relationship, Yun Canghai only said that these were two people he could guarantee had no ill intentions towards the Song Dynasty. Just a high-level demon who wants to work with him.
Without such a relationship, Mo Yunzi agreed to meet at a place that Yang Jiao felt was the safest. No matter how tempting the cooperation method proposed by Mo Yunzi was, he would not agree to meet with two powerful demons.
Of course, Yang Jiao was indeed very tempted by Sufina's proposal to cooperate with Rose and help him eliminate most of the poisonous insects and evil creatures in the Jiangnan area.
Therefore, after the two of them admired the scenery of the Jiangnan Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, Mo Yunzi crushed a jade tablet and sent out a secret message. Not long after, a secret message with the same frequency came. , which contains a map that leads to a secret room in the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion.
According to the map instructions, the two went invisibly, dodged several sentries, and finally entered a rockery. The interior space of the rockery is spacious, the decoration is low-key yet luxurious, and it is illuminated by pearl lamps and candles. Three seats and a stone table have been set up in the main hall. A man with a majestic look like a dragon and a strong body is sitting at the table, pouring himself a drink. .
This person is none other than Yang Jiao, the newly promoted Governor of Jiangnan. It can be seen that with the promotion of his official position and the expansion of his territorial power, his cultivation has entered a stage of rapid progress, as evidenced by his majestic dragon-like aura.
Seeing the two people entering, Yang Jiao's eyes flashed, and then his expression changed slightly, but he recovered in an instant and said with a smile: "You two distinguished guests have come from afar. It is a great honor for Yang. Please take a seat." After that, he stretched out his hand. Pointing to the wine glass on the stone table, "This is the 'Demon Spirit Wine' that my Jiangnan brewing master extracted the essence of spiritual fruits and magical beasts and brewed it with a complex process. Drinking it regularly can increase your magic power and improve your physique. Unfortunately, the right spiritual fruits and magical beasts It is rare and difficult to brew. There are only a few jars in the entire Jiangnan. Please, you two."
This is not only a courtesy, but also a test. In order to show my kindness to the landlord, I even brought out such a precious product, but if you are afraid of poisoning and dare not drink it, your aura will naturally be lower than mine.
After all, he is used to being the leader of one party and always wants to gain the upper hand.
However, Yang Jiao used the wrong opponent for this move. Not to mention that this kind of wine brewed with the essence of Warcraft, in the eyes of Sufina and Mo Yunzi, who are high-level officials in the demon world, it is just an intermediate-to-upper level in their own collection. It is nothing special. Even if it is really poisonous, is it still poisonous? Can it poison the "Poison Queen" and the "Nine-Headed Demonic Dragon"?
Therefore, the two of them took their seats immediately without hesitation, and then raised the wine glasses in front of them in front of Yang Jiao's surprised eyes, and drank them all in one gulp. Then Mo Yunzi signaled Sufina to take charge of the communication, and he himself began to close his eyes and rest. stand up.
Sufina knew that Mo Yunzi didn't want to pay attention to such trivial matters, so she smiled and said to Yang Jiao: "It is indeed a good wine, and it is qualified to entertain guests even at our demon god's banquet. However, my companion and I today Are you here for cooperation, I wonder what Lord Yang thinks about it?"
After Yang Jiao heard this, he immediately understood that his actions had no effect. In the eyes of other demons, the exquisite wine he thought was just a standard wine for banquets. Moreover, the two demons seemed to be extremely confident in their own strength. , not afraid of any conspiracy on his part.
He immediately shook his head with a wry smile, "The Demon God's background is indeed not comparable to that of a mortal like me. Since the two of you have the guarantee of Venerable Canghai and are sure to help me eliminate poisonous insects and evil things, even if there is no common enemy like Rose, I I will also cooperate with you." After saying that, he said seriously: "As long as you two can help me eliminate these poisonous insects and evil things that have recently appeared in the Jiangnan area and restore peace to us, I, Yang Jiao, am willing to sign an alliance with you to help each other. , but I want to see your sincerity!"
It's not that he doesn't know the risks of cooperating with demons, but it's the lesser of two harms. Now evil things are rampant and poisonous insects are breeding. It's impossible for ordinary people without cultivation to survive. Even if he sits in the center and commands the army and worshipers to fight everywhere, It can only barely guarantee stability within a radius of three hundred miles centered on Jiangnan City, but it can do nothing for further areas.
Now victims are pouring into Jiangnan City. Although food and supplies are temporarily sufficient, if the evil and poisonous insects continue to cause harm like this, the territories he cannot protect will soon turn into desolate wastelands, and the people under his rule will also suffer heavy casualties. This will seriously affect the human dragon energy in the Jiangnan area. By then, his cultivation will not advance but retreat, so he cannot delay.
Sufina also didn't expect Yang Jiao to be so resolute when talking about business, but this was exactly what she wanted, so she immediately nodded and agreed, "No problem, as long as Lord Yang is willing to join forces with us to deal with Rose, I can show you right away To my sincerity.”
"Without further delay, let's do it now!" Yang Jiao stood up immediately, "Qingcheng Lake three hundred miles away has also been occupied and polluted by evil things recently. It has not only devoured the aquatic life in the lake, but also multiplied and bred many evil monsters. Poisonous insects attack all living things near Qingcheng Lake, even the wandering demons and monsters! According to reports from spies, there have been huge waves and demonic energy billowing in the depths of Qingcheng Lake recently. It seems that a powerful evil thing has been born. Once it is true, Yes, it will definitely cause harm to a larger area. You two, why not come with me and let me see what you can do."
Sufina was stunned. She didn't expect that Yang Jiao was quite eager. She turned her head slightly and looked at Mo Yunzi. Mo Yunzi didn't express anything. He obviously didn't have any objections, so she said, "No problem, Lord Yang, please lead the way." .”
Yang Jiao was very happy and didn't pack anything. He just led the two of them out of the secret room and walked out of the city. When he arrived at the Jiangnan Governor's Mansion, he called a close confidant to explain some matters that he needed to handle after going out. , he took his own weapon - a Qinglong Yanyue Sword, and flew towards Qingcheng Lake with Sufina and Mo Yunzi using magic weapons to hide their figures.
At this time, more than 300 miles away, there was a large lake covering an area of more than 100 hectares. The waves were rolling in the center area, and streams of filthy black water surged upward from the depths. Accompanied by faint roars and wailing sounds, a wave formed in the center of the lake. A black-gray shadow is constantly squirming and expanding, like a huge beast in pregnancy.
