There are green willows and spring flowers on Kongliu Island, all over the waterside pavilions.
Spring is everywhere, every step brings a scene, and the fragrance of flowers is floating in the air.
The island owner's house is built on the Valley of Flowers in the southeast.
The house is grand, with a red door and high walls, and a nanmu plaque hanging on the door. The word "Wufu" is vigorous and powerful.
Going in from the gate, bypassing the relief screen wall and passing through a forest of flowers, you will reach the Wufu Hall.
At this moment, the hall was filled with distinguished guests. The head of the family, Wu Hetai, welcomed the distinguished guests and drank tea, chatted and laughed with them.
"In this Poison King Tournament, all the distinguished guests are honored to be invited to come and watch the event together. I, Wu Hetai, are honored to have it. Wufu and Kongliu Island will do their best to make your trip worthwhile!" in the hall! The old man standing was over sixty years old, with gray hair and beard, but he was in good health and in good spirits. "I have ordered people to arrange accommodation for you. If there is any lack of care, I hope you will bear with me. Why not?" Feel free to mention whatever is appropriate."
Everyone present was polite.
"Since the rise of the New Poison King Valley, Lord Wu personally presides over the annual Poison King Competition, which brings surprises to people every year. The Poison King Valley is becoming more and more famous, and the Wu family on Kongliu Island is even more famous. I believe it. This year’s event will definitely be exciting, and I’m looking forward to it.”
"What I'm talking about is that the medicine kings who have won the first place in competitions over the years are all amazing with their medicines such as Qianji, Jiuyu, Miying, Mengluo... and so on. I'm now starting to wonder which drug king this year will be. What kind of eye-catching products will you come up with?"
"In previous years, when those strange medicines came out, people were always the first to buy them. This year, I can't go back empty-handed, hahaha! You all are rushing to grab them, but don't blame me for not giving in!"
While talking and laughing, the young master sitting at the end of the seat raised his lips and smiled, "Qianji, Jiuyu, Miying, Mengluo... It is indeed a rare and rare medicine, but Compared to the old Poison King, the Poison Invulnerability is still slightly inferior. The Huashen that the Old Poison King casually refined at that time attracted people to flock to it as soon as it appeared. The poisonousness of the Huashui is still unmatched by anyone. The asking price is ten thousand taels of silver, and the reputation is unparalleled. I am also looking forward to the emergence of a new drug king this year who can rival the old poison king."
The hall fell silent.
Wu Hetai's eyes darkened for a moment, then he smiled again and said, "I wonder who this young master is?"
"Da Qiao Chi, the Crown Prince of the Prince's Palace, should you." The young man leaned back in his chair, raised his eyebrows and raised his lips with arrogance and arrogance, "I just felt something. With your expressions like this, could it be that this Crown Prince is right?"
"It turns out he is the eldest son of Prince Chi, and Wu was neglectful." Wu Hetai cupped his hands and said with a smile, "The old Poison King's attainments in poisoning were indeed at their peak back then, but he has disappeared for many years. It is said that there are talents in every generation, and this year's Poison King Sai will definitely not disappoint Prince Ying Yu."
Ying Yu smiled lazily and said, "I will wait and see."
…
In an inn outside the island, a 20-year-old nobleman was furious in the room and slapped the accompanying guards one by one.
"A bunch of useless things! The invitation was placed under my prince's pillow, how could it disappear out of thin air!"
"Prince Chi's Mansion has really raised a bunch of losers by raising you! You don't even know if someone sneaks into my son's room and steals things! If that person wants to take off my son's head, can I still live?!"
"This year I finally got a chance from my father to watch the Poison King Tournament. Now I can't even enter the gate of Koryu Island. How will I explain when I go back?"
"Hurry up and check for me! You can only enter Kongliu Island with an invitation. Since the other party stole the invitation, he must be attending a banquet in Wu Mansion! When he is caught, I will skin him!"
Pebbles flew from nowhere, and after a few thumps, the noisy room became quiet.
Prince Tiaojia followed the guards and lay down on the ground.
It was an hour later when I woke up again.
…
Wufu.
After properly arranging all the distinguished guests, Wu Hetai left the hall and walked to the backyard.
The butler followed closely behind him, "Master, the prince of Prince Chi's Palace deliberately made provocations in the hall and had a different attitude. But in previous years, people from Prince Chi's Palace came to watch the game, and it was not this attitude."
"He is just a prince. Among all the distinguished guests, his status is only low. Whether he can successfully inherit Prince Chi's Mansion in the future is still questionable. There is no need to worry about it." Wu Hetai said with a stern face, "You and others will go to various places outside the island." The inn secretly checks to see if there are five young people in a group, four boys and one girl. The boys are about seventeen or eighteen years old and the girls are around thirteen or fourteen. If there are any, come back and report them immediately. Don't alert the snake. Also, let the people on the island pay attention, and if anyone comes with an invitation from Guiyi Pavilion, they will be captured immediately."
"Yes, I'll do it now, slave!"
After dismissing the housekeeper, Wu Hetai went straight to the study and ordered his eldest son Wu Ziqian to be summoned. "The eight kings sent a letter earlier and said they would arrive before the game starts, but now they have not seen anyone. Please take someone to find out." News, let’s see what’s going on. I’m most afraid that something happened to him in Dai Viet, so I don’t trust this matter being left to others.”
Wu Ziqian, who was about forty years old, immediately responded after hearing the words, "Don't worry, father, I will personally contact Dai Viet later. The Eight Kings have always been treated politely in Dai Viet, and even the emperor probably refused to give him three points. Normally No one dared to touch him, maybe something delayed him on the way, so don't worry too much, father."
"No matter what, it's better to be careful. The Eight Kings will stay in Dai Viet, and their goal is the place of exile. They haven't been able to capture that place so far, which shows that those people are not simple. If something happens to the Eight Kings, we will bring them later The troubles will be endless.”
When Wu Ziqian heard the words, his eyes moved slightly, and he lowered his voice and said, "Father, I know a little about the place of exile in Dai Viet. Before, all the countries just sent their subordinates in turn to conduct tests. This time, the Eight Kings actually went there in person. Behind this It shouldn’t just be as simple as dealing with the Exiled Land, right? No matter how big it is, it’s only a city. If all countries join forces, it will be easy to win, so why be so afraid?”
Wu Hetai sneered, his eyes were deep, "It's a pity that we can't join forces for some things, otherwise, the mainland will probably be devastated, and no one can afford that price."
In the past, to suppress a place of exile, it might have been possible for all countries to join forces to attack.
But now it can't be done.
The fragments of the Guiyi Pavilion's Divine Weapon Picture are in the hands of the people in the Exiled Land. There is only one fragment, but there are nine people who want it.
It is not difficult to take over the Exile Land and kill those people, but who should the fragments ultimately belong to?
At that time, the nine countries will have to break up, which is something that the leaders of each country do not want to see for the time being.
Wu Hetai did not go into details, and Wu Ziqian did not dare to ask further questions when he saw this, and hurriedly left the study to do some work.
After he left, a shadow swayed and disappeared in the corner of the outer wall of the study.
