"What do you think, Boss An? Are you feeling any discomfort~?"
About a quarter of an hour later, as soon as Li Tai finished his dinner, Mu Jiao came down with Anshun Shan in his arms. The eyes of Scorpio and Li Tai also fell on Anshun Shan for the first time, and they saw that the latter's face was a little red. Apart from being suffocated, there didn't seem to be anything unusual. On the contrary, the old guy looked very unhappy and angry, as if someone owed him money. Scorpio looked at the latter for a moment before asking.
Anshunshan snorted coldly when he heard this. He twisted his arm and broke away from Mu Jiao's "devil's claws", and then said angrily: "Humph! What discomfort can I have? I'm very good now! It's you, so Treat me like this, I will definitely sue you severely when I see your guard master one day!"
Speaking of being tied up in the room by Mu Jiao to smoke the Huansheng Incense, he was one of the scared ones. Although he believed that his judgment on the ingredients of the Huansheng Incense was correct, he was not afraid of ten thousand, just afraid of what might happen. If he didn't recognize the poison in the incense, wouldn't he be doomed? He still has a lot of money, but he hasn’t lived enough yet, and he doesn’t want to die yet!
So in the room earlier, Anshunshan begged Mujiao to let him go. He was willing to give Mujiao a lot of money. Of course, these words were true. Anshunshan felt that his life was precious, even if there was even the slightest risk. He doesn't even want to take the risk!
But the situation at that time was no longer something he could decide. Faced with Mu Jiao, a guy who "can't get enough oil and salt", it would be useless no matter how much money Anshun Mountain had. He could only stay in the room and smoke. Completely rejuvenating fragrance!
Fortunately, Anshunshan found that after inhaling a whole stick of Huansheng Incense, his body did not appear abnormal except for feeling a little stuffy.
Even so, Anshunshan was still very angry at Scorpio and Mujiao for treating him as a "test subject". It was a pity that he couldn't leave the inn now, otherwise he would definitely hire someone to beat up Scorpio and Mujiao. Relieve your anger!
"Boss An, don't be so angry!"
Scorpio didn't take Anshun Shan's anger to heart at all, he said calmly: "Now we are grasshoppers on the same rope. The guard leader was arrested, and the two leaders Xuan Ye and Tianying were also arrested. The current situation, You don’t need me to tell you, you know it in your heart! We are keeping you safe these days, Boss An, and you have to pay something for us, right?"
Anshun Shan pondered for a moment and understood what Scorpio said. In the final analysis, the relationship between him, Zhao Deyan and the Turkic Wolf Guards was just mutual use. Now his safety in Taiyuan City depends entirely on Scorpio and the others. As a If the weaker party among the two parties has no use value at all, he will probably be abandoned by Scorpio and others soon!
It sounds cruel, but it's the truth!
Thinking of this, Anshunshan calmed down his emotions and got down to business seriously:
"After personal testing just now, I found that the ingredients of this Huanshengxiang are not wrong. They are just some soothing medicinal materials. They should not be poisonous. They can indeed calm the mind and calm the mind and help sleep. But when it comes to increasing vitality, I'm afraid it is The monk who survived the crisis came out of nowhere, and I don’t feel that my body has gotten better!”
After listening to Anshun Shan's words, Li Tai felt both disappointed and happy in his heart. What was disappointing was that the Huansheng incense did not have the effect of greatly increasing one's skill in a short period of time, but what was fortunate was that the Huansheng incense still had the effect of greatly increasing one's power in a short period of time. It's a good thing it didn't have this effect, otherwise Tiedan, Gae and their plans would probably be exposed right now!
"Um!"
Scorpio nodded after hearing this. This result was what he expected. After a pause, he looked at Anshun Mountain and asked: "You said that this Huansheng incense can calm the mind and help you sleep, but does it have any effect?" Drowsy effect?"
He was worried that Huanshengxiang could hypnotize people. If this was true, if Li Tai made Huanshengxiang better, wouldn't it hypnotize everyone in the inn? Then the government can rescue Li Tai effortlessly!
After all, he still had a vague suspicion in his heart that there was "collusion" between Duanyan and the monks of Puguang Temple and the government!
"Won't!"
Anshun Shan shook his head with certainty and said: "The main effect of this Huansheng incense is to calm the mind and calm the breath, and its sleep-promoting effect is very weak. To achieve the drowsy effect, it is estimated that at least hundreds of Huansheng incense must be consumed at the same time. ignite!"
"Well! That makes me feel relieved!"
Scorpio breathed a sigh of relief. He has now confirmed that the Huanshengxiang has absolutely nothing to do with the government. Maybe today's ceremony is really just a coincidence? Are the monks from Du Nan and Puguang Temple just here to preach and attract believers in the name of the Dharma Assembly? So, Scorpio handed the remaining Huansheng incense to Li Tai and said: "Since this incense is not poisonous, then King Wei will take it!"
"Um!"
Li Tai quickly reached out and took it, but he was a little uninterested because he found that things were a little different from what he had initially expected. Logically speaking, there should be some Huanshengxiang made by "Du Yan" himself and delivered by Tiedan himself. It's a special effect, otherwise why would they go to so much trouble? But now Anshun Mountain has confirmed through personal experience that this so-called Huansheng incense is just a very ordinary soothing incense!
The little fat man suddenly felt a little unhappy. He thought these two Huansheng incense could create a chance for him to escape!
"Chief, the little beggar who brought incense to Cao An is here again, saying that he has received two more pieces of Huansheng incense~!"
At this moment, a Turkic spy who was guarding the door of the inn quickly walked in and bowed to Scorpio.
"Oh? He really received two extra sticks of Huanshengxiang? Call him in quickly, I will reward him~!"
Li Tai's eyes lit up and he immediately became energetic. He looked at Cao An and said, "Take out the reward money. I want to reward that little beggar!"
He had no money, and he had said before that he would ask Cao An to help reward the little beggar.
Cao An touched the money bag that had not yet been warmed, and then looked at Scorpio, hesitant on his face. He had to wait for Scorpio's instructions.
Scorpio glanced at Li Tai and said, "I won't bother the King of Wei with such a small matter! Cao An, go outside and reward the King of Wei, and bring in the Huansheng Incense!"
"Yes~!"
Cao An quickly accepted the order and turned around.
He liked Scorpio's instructions very much, because if he called the little beggar in and rewarded him in front of Li Tai, according to Li Tai's wishes, he would give the little beggar two pounds of reward; and let him go out to reward him. , he can intercept most of the rewards privately!
When he thought about it, two useless sticks of Huanshengxiang were not worth two cents. Giving the little beggar two hundred cents was already pretty good!
Li Tai was a little "bored" at this time. He originally planned to call Tie Dan in and then find a chance to spend some time alone with Tie Dan so that he could ask Tie Dan what the official's plan was tonight so that he could learn from it. Cooperate!
He never expected that Scorpio wouldn't give him a chance!
Li Tai, who was "bored" for a while, planned to go back to his room to sleep after getting all the soothing incense.
At this moment, the voices of Tiedan and Cao An also came from outside. The volume of their conversation was not loud. Li Tai was not a warrior, so he could only vaguely hear the words "Tie Dan", "Instructions", "Effectiveness Overbearing". " and so on, but he couldn't hear clearly what the two said specifically.
Scorpio narrowed his eyes, said nothing, and listened carefully to the conversation outside.
After a while, Cao An walked in with two sticks of Huansheng incense. He bowed to Scorpio and said:
"Leader, the little beggar just now told his subordinates that the monk who was in trouble told him when he gave him the rejuvenating incense, saying that the rejuvenating incense is so powerful that the average person can only withstand the power of one incense a day, so he When giving it to his father, don’t use up all four Huansheng incense sticks at once. And for people with weaker health, it is best not to close the doors and windows when burning incense, otherwise they will inhale too much Huansheng incense. The body won’t be able to bear the fragrance!”
After Cao An finished speaking, Mu Jiao couldn't help but spit and cursed: "Bah~! This old bald ass is very bad! Not to mention selling fake incense, he even boasted about it! The efficacy of bullshit is overbearing. Boss An just said Didn’t he just stay in the room and inhale a whole stick of Huansheng Incense? Isn’t he fine now? This is just for bluffing people!”
Anshunshan also stroked his beard and nodded: "Well! These monks usually like to bluff and act like a god, otherwise why would the people be willing to go to the temple to offer incense?"
Scorpio didn't pay much attention to what he said to the little beggar when he was in trouble, but he didn't say much about it. At this time, he told Cao An: "Ignore this for now, go and guard the man on the west side of the inn. Fu Quan calls over~!"
"Yes~!"
Cao An bowed to accept the order, and after handing the two sticks of Huansheng Incense to Li Tai, he went out to deliver Scorpio's orders.
Li Tai took the two Huansheng incense sticks handed over by Cao An. He looked at them for a while and then smelled them. After finding that the two Huansheng incense sticks were the same as before, he was a little disappointed in his heart, but on the surface he was lazy. The ground yawned and saw him stand up, smiling at Mujiao and Anshunshan:
"You two are disrespectful to the eminent monks of Puguang Temple, and even more disrespectful to the Buddha. You may be punished by God! I believe the words of Master Duan. Maybe this Huansheng Incense can really rejuvenate your life and prolong your life?"
Anshunshan sneered and said: "I'm afraid King Wei hasn't woken up yet! I have already tried it just now. This rejuvenating incense is just an ordinary soothing incense. How can it have the effect of rejuvenating and prolonging life?"
"Maybe it's because you are old and don't have much vitality left in your body! That's why this rejuvenating incense is of no use to you!"
Li Tai curled his lips and saw Anshunshan's face turned dark and his eyes were about to burst into flames. He chuckled, waved his hands and said, "Forget it! I'm too lazy to explain this to you. I'm going back to my room to rest!"
Li Tai went back to the guest room to rest. Anshunshan and Scorpio didn't talk much about each other. They didn't even eat, so they went upstairs directly. Scorpio didn't say anything about it. Although the fragrance test happened just now, they They still maintain a superficial courtesy with Anshun Mountain, because in the future, after they rescue Zhao Deyan and successfully leave Taiyuan City, they may still need to cooperate with Anshun Mountain. At this time, it is not good to completely cooperate with Anshun Mountain. Break the skin.
"...Fu Quan, you stay on the west side of the inn, closest to the small market. Did you see the little beggar just now who went to get out of trouble to receive the Huansheng Incense?"
At this moment, Cao An led a short, thin but muscular armored warrior in. When the two stood still, Scorpio asked in a deep voice.
Although he had basically determined that Huanshengxiang was harmless, and that both Duanyan and the little beggar were people who had nothing to do with the government, he was still cautious and did not want to miss a single detail, so Cao An asked Fu Quan to bring him in for questioning. The details of the meeting between the little beggar and Feng Di just now.
"Yes! My subordinates saw it! At that time, all the people in the small market received the Huansheng Incense and left. The distressed monk called the little beggar, gave the little beggar two Huansheng Incense, and explained some things to the little beggar. What happened was that my subordinates were a little far away at the time, so I probably could only hear things like the powerful medicine, one pill a day, opening the windows and doors for ventilation, and then the little beggar thanked the monk for saving his life and left!"
Fu Quan bowed and replied.
"Um!"
Scorpio was relieved now. He waved his hand and said, "I understand, just go down! Guard your position and don't let down your guard!"
"yes!"
Fu Quan solemnly accepted the order, turned and left.
"Second brother, you will stay in the guest room at Tianzihao for the first half of tonight. You must guard King Wei every step of the way. If anything goes wrong, all of our lives will have to be taken care of in Taiyuan! In the second half of the night, I will come over and take your place. You can go back to your room and rest for half the night!”
After Fu Quan left, Scorpio looked at Mu Jiao aside and spoke seriously.
He knew what a simpleton his brother was. Normally, he would definitely not be willing to hand over such an important task to the latter, but he had not slept much for two nights in a row. In the evening, he sat on a chair and squinted for a while. Not only did he not After recovering from fatigue, he became even more sleepy. Scorpio felt that he had to have a good sleep. Otherwise, if a battle broke out, his mental state would probably lead to his death due to slow reaction. At the moment, apart from him, there was no one else in the inn. Mu Jiao has the highest martial arts skills, so he can only leave the task of guarding Li Tai to Mu Jiao in the first half of the night.
Fortunately, everything was calm in Jian'anfang today except for the Dharma meeting in the small market, so there shouldn't be any accidents at night.
"Ang! Brother, don't worry! I will keep an eye on that kid every step of the way, and there will never be any accidents!"
Mu Jiao patted his chest and promised firmly.
"Um!"
Scorpio nodded expressionlessly, and then went straight upstairs to his room to sleep. He didn't even eat dinner. He was obviously very sleepy.
Mu Jiao scratched his head and followed, but he went to the Tianzihao guest room.
In his opinion, the task assigned to him by Scorpio was not difficult. Li Tai did not know martial arts and was as weak as a chicken in front of him. Moreover, he had spent some time with Li Tai in the afternoon and felt that Li Tai was a prince. It's still relatively easy to talk to. As long as the other person doesn't take the initiative to act like a monster, he has nothing to worry about.
