Maybe it was because Li Dabao's warning had an effect, or maybe Azheng himself had his own little plan.
In short, when Li Dabao fed it the fake golden elixir, there was peace in its eyes.
That kind of calm seems very calm to me, and at the same time there is a hint of cunning in the calm.
This feeling only lasted for a moment. When I looked at him again, my eyes were as calm as ever, and I couldn't see anything.
After entering the elixir, Li Dabao and I both stepped back very vigilantly.
Her eyes stayed on Azheng, wanting to see what kind of reaction he had.
But after staring at Ah Zheng for a while, he didn't notice any strange reaction.
He still maintained that posture motionless, and his originally calm eyes were replaced by a confused state.
Even Li Dabao called Azheng several times in a row without getting any feedback.
Seeing him like this, Li Dabao turned around and asked, "Jiuri, is this guy dead?"
"What do you think he looks like when he's dead?"
"I think it would be more realistic if we lit a fire for him."
I shook my head and said, "You just said he was a member of the Eight Sects. Do you know which of the Eight Sects he belongs to?"
Li Dabao thought for a moment and said, "Actually, to be precise, I'm not entirely sure which faction he belongs to."
"But we can use the elimination method to speculate, right?"
"First of all, we can rule out the Orchid Clan. After all, the Orchid Clan are all girls, and he doesn't look like them at all."
"Secondly, Qianmen and the agency door can also be excluded."
I asked: "Why do you say that?"
Li Dabao clasped his fingers and said, "Look, if he were a member of the agency, it would be too easy to deal with us. Secondly, it would be impossible for him to attack us before entering the main tomb chamber."
"As for Qianmen, do you think that with his poor acting skills, even if he can't deceive me, he is worthy of being a member of Qianmen?"
"I have been kicked out a long time ago...!"
"Now, we have eliminated three, leaving only the Gu Sect, the Divine Tune Sect, the Red Handkerchief and the Life-Calling Sect."
"The bald old man among them is definitely not a member of the Red Handkerchief, otherwise he can kill us if he wants to deal with us anytime and anywhere."
"You know, the most distinctive feature of this red handkerchief is its ultimate illusion, which can make people fall into the trap without even realizing it."
"Let's talk about the last life-seeking gate. To put it bluntly, this life-seeking gate is for assassination. In ancient times, it was called an assassin, but now it is called a killer."
"Whether it is in ancient times or modern times, there are very few such special professions. Among the eight sects, the life-seeking sect has almost disappeared. They will definitely see blood when they attack. Look at Azheng's attitude. If he is from the life-seeking sect, , Mr. Bao, I am the master of the eight gates."
"In other words, there are only two possibilities for him now, either he is like a Gu sect, or he is a Shen Tiao sect?"
Li Dabao nodded and said yes.
"Although we haven't seen what his Gu skills are yet, the fact that he can deal with and kill the blue-striped squid by himself cannot be underestimated."
"As for the way to deal with blue-striped squid, although the foreign devil said that it can only be killed with strong alkaline things."
"But the foreign devil is a foreign devil after all. He knows a lot. Our five thousand years of Chinese cultural inheritance does not necessarily mean that there is nothing else that cannot deal with these strange things."
"The people in this Gu sect are all masters of Gu. Most of them come from Xiangxi, Yunnan, and Sichuan. You know something about Gu, don't you?"
"So it is barely reasonable to say that he is a member of the Gu sect."
"But I personally feel that this piece of shit should belong to the Divine Tune Sect..."
As he was talking, Azheng, who was lying there, suddenly began to twitch all over.
The whole person seemed to be suffering from epilepsy, foaming at the mouth, and his hands and feet were constantly twisting.
Like a rotting maggot.
When Li Dabao saw this, he exclaimed: "Oh my god, Jiuri, I saved your life. You looked at this ruined thing and died of poison..."
I was shocked by Azheng's condition at first, but then I saw an incredible scene.
I saw that although Cong Azheng was foaming at the mouth, every time he vomited out, there would be a lot of black water mixed in.
Even his ulcerated skin began to ooze pus, and finally fell off, revealing the tender skin underneath.
The whole process lasted for about two or three cigarettes.
In the end, his whole body tensed up, and he completely passed out, without any hope of life left.
This scene left both me and Li Dabao stunned.
Li Dabao, in particular, had an expression of extreme surprise on his face.
"Holy shit, isn't it?"
"Is this okay?"
Li Dabao squatted in front of Azheng and slapped Azheng on the face with a dagger.
But Azheng showed no reaction.
Li Dabao casually looked at Azheng's wrist again and said: "My mother, look here, I just picked out his hand tendon, and now the wound is really healed."
"Is this still a pill?"
"This is an elixir, and look at this, it's all new skin."
"But fortunately, his broken arms and legs did not grow back, otherwise I, Li Dabao, would have jumped off the cliff and died."
As he said this, he prepared to continue picking off Azheng's hand tendons.
I stopped Li Dabao and said, "Don't do it yet. The effect of this elixir looks very miraculous, and it really surprised me."
"But have you ever thought about what would be the result if this elixir was really powerful and could be mass-produced?"
Li Dabao raised his head and rolled his eyes and said, "I almost understand what you mean."
"You mean, what we saw is just the surface. After all, it is dead now."
As he said this, Li Dabao touched Azheng's neck, and finally shook his head and said, "He is really dead. It's a pity that this elixir is worth it."
I stared at Azheng and said, "I feel like it's not dead, but the contents of the elixir are treating its internal injuries."
Then, I told Li Dabao my thoughts.
If this magical elixir really had no side effects, how could it be given to a subordinate?
Also, know that this thing was originally meant for me.
I don't think that Ah Zheng and the people behind Ah Zheng are trying to help me without reservation.
So there is only one result, and that is that I need to eat this thing to maintain a peak physical condition.
But this state must not last for too long.
This is a kind of pill that burns life span or body potential.
After a certain peak has passed, people will definitely not be able to survive.
Although I can't tell what this side effect is now, Ah Zheng's performance just now has seriously violated scientific common sense.
It even goes against the laws of the natural five elements.
This is an act that goes against nature, and the final result must be very costly.
When I finished speaking, Li Dabao nodded repeatedly, even gave me a thumbs up and said: "High, it's really high, why didn't I think of this?"
"It seems that some things are really complicated."
After hearing this, I smiled bitterly and said, "Are you praising me or hurting me? Why do I feel that what you said is so offensive?"
Li Dabao chuckled and said, "Look at what you said, of course I am complimenting you."
"I, Li Dabao, have harmed others, do I still need to take detours?"
As he spoke, Li Dabao changed the subject and said, "What should we do now? Let's just stay like this?"
"I'm telling you, we don't have much time left."
I know that Li Dabao is talking about the time when Yabu was outside to meet us.
If we don't go out in two days, Yabu will leave.
Once it leaves me, even if we can get out of the Black Desert, there are still several days of journey outside.
By then, even if we have the ability to walk back, we will eventually die in the desert without fresh water resources.
This does not include those big lizards and sandworms that are very vindictive.
Thinking of this, I said to Li Dabao: "Let's take a brief rest, smoke a cigarette, and stare for a while. If Ah Zheng wakes up, let him take us to the main tomb."
"If he doesn't wake up, it means he is really dead. My guess was wrong."
"Everyone was cremated in a fire as we worked together, which can be regarded as the most benevolent and righteous thing...!"
