After Wu Hongbo's matter was resolved, Guo Xun basically had nothing to do. According to Wu Bingying, he only had to wait until the time came to refine the Ice Mysterious Saint Fruit.
But for some reason, Guo Xunyi didn't receive any news about refining the Ice Mysterious Holy Fruit after many days. Guo Xun felt a little strange, so he found Zi Kuanglei.
"Brother, what have Sister Bingying been doing these past few days? Why is she nowhere to be seen?"
Zi Kuanglei also had a wry smile on his face. You didn't need to guess from his reaction. He didn't see Wu Bingying either. The two of them looked at each other and smiled wryly, both feeling a little baffled.
Guo Xun also lived a peaceful life for a few days. Although he was at the bottom of the Biluo River, it was no problem for a Nascent Soul stage powerhouse to not need to breathe as long as he had enough spiritual energy.
It's just that Guo Xun is not a human being after all, and it is still difficult to adapt to life in the water. However, fortunately, he observed some situations of Zi Kuang Lei and then simulated them through "The Secret Technique of Deceiving the Sky", which made Guo Xun feel better. , sometimes he even had the illusion that he was a purple electric tuna.
Different from the peace Guo Xun experienced, a big event happened in Bihai City in the past few days.
It seems that this matter has something to do with Guo Xun and the others, but no one knows about this relationship yet.
The law of poison that Hu Shaorong understood caused a big fuss in the Biluo River this time, and ended up costing her own life, but it didn't matter that she died, the consequences of her death harmed the entire Biluo River. The river, especially the creatures downstream.
The location of the Wuyue Ice Bull Demon Clan is further down Bihai City, tens of thousands of miles away from Bihai City, so it will take a long time for the river water in Bihai City to flow to the location of the Wuyue Ice Ox Demon Clan.
Recently, in the early morning, the sky was bright, and the broad Biluo River was covered with mist. It looked very poetic, but at the same time it was also strange, giving people an inexplicable and eerie feeling, which was a bit chilling.
Bihai City's dock by the river, unlike the bustling scene at the beginning of the month, seemed particularly deserted today.
Bihai City held the Linlang Business Expo, and a large number of ships from other places flowed to Bihai City. Now the Linlang Business Expo is in full swing, and Bihai City shows its prosperity every day.
People gradually began to be busy at the docks in the early morning. Although a large number of merchants poured into Bihai City, making Bihai City seem particularly lively and prosperous, the necessary hub for maintaining the livelihood of the people of Bihai City was still going on as usual.
The dock workers kept unloading the fruits and vegetables transported from various places overnight. At this time, no one noticed that the color of the Biluo River was different.
The poisonous river water quietly came to Bihai City under the cover of night last night. The river water followed the various channels built by the people of Bihai City and flowed into the moat of Bihai City, and then entered the thousands of households in Bihai City.
A plague swept through the entire Bihai City.
It was daybreak, and the night and water mist had long disappeared. At this time, people discovered that the Biluo River had turned black and purple.
A large number of smelly fish and rotten shrimps surfaced, and the overwhelming stench swept through the entire Bihai City. The Liming people living in Bihai City could always smell a faint fishy smell in the air. At first, they did not pay attention. .
Later, when they drank water, they found that the color of the water they drank was also strange, and they could even smell the same stench as in the air.
Only then did people really discover that the water was poisonous, but it was too late. At this time, most people in Bihai City had already had breakfast and drank the water.
Gradually, some people began to vomit and have diarrhea. In the end, what came out of the vomiting and diarrhea was no longer food residue, but black, smelly blood.
Then this phenomenon began to become common. In less than half a day, the entire Bihai City was filled with howls and countless dead bodies.
The poison released by Hu Shaorong contains the power of law, which is fatal to the strong people in the Nascent Soul stage. Once the poison enters the body, the strong people in the Nascent Soul stage have to go through great troubles to protect themselves.
Not to mention cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage, if they don’t have good healing elixirs to drive away the poison, they will end up dead.
By night, more than half of the people in Bihai City were dead and injured. Those who survived without drinking water or just a little bit were also panic-stricken, enduring hunger and pain, waiting for the city lord's palace to make a decision, but more people came to the city lord's palace. The city lord's mansion was surrounded by water.
The threat of death is everywhere. No one can stay calm at such a moment. Even those cultivators are trying to escape from Bihai City like crazy. The teleportation array in Bihai City has become the hardest hit area.
At this time, the gorgeous hall of the City Lord's Mansion was already filled with people. The City Lord Cao Yuanzheng, who was sitting in the center, was furious at this moment. He smashed the coffee table with his palm and shouted: "What on earth happened! Why did the wall of the wall become a river?" Black? Where did these poisons come from?"
Many officials were trembling with fear, but when faced with Cao Yuanzheng's questions, they had to explain themselves.
At this time, a group of people came out and fell to their knees with a plop. Among them, a middle-aged man quickly climbed out. His head was like pounding garlic. He banged his head four or five times before shaking. He said tremblingly: "City... City Lord, the Biluo River has been poisoned by someone. This poison is extremely insidious. Once poisoned, ordinary people have no cure, and even cultivators cannot escape the consequences!"
"This poison is so vicious, what exactly is it? Have you found out?"
The middle-aged man suddenly felt that something was wrong. How could such a terrible poison be investigated without beginning or end?
"...I don't know its origin!"
When the middle-aged man saw Cao Yuanzheng's round eyes, he was immediately frightened out of his wits, and kowtowed quickly, "City Lord, have mercy! City Lord, have mercy! We really don't know what this poison is, and we can't see through the contents at all!"
"What are you talking about! Then what use do I have for you people! How can there be no clue about such a terrible poison? What do you people do for food! Drag them out and behead them all!"
Cao Yuanzheng was really pissed off and was a little confused now. As the city lord of Bihai City, he had to bear the blame for what happened to him. He probably couldn't keep his position as city lord.
However, at this moment, an old man next to the city lord suddenly said: "City lord, wait a minute! Although they are guilty of dereliction of duty, their crimes are not worthy of death. There is no need to behead them. Besides, now is the occasion of employing people. Please think twice, city lord." !”
This old man's name is Huo Binglin, and he is Cao Yuanzheng's staff officer. Although he is only Cao Yuanzheng's staff officer, his cultivation has reached the Nascent Soul stage.
As a staff officer, Huo Binglin is only effective when the city lord is undecided or makes some wrong decisions. Just now, Cao Yuanzheng was so angry that he wanted to kill these people. This was obviously a wrong decision. Huo Binglin must stop it. Otherwise, Cao Yuanzheng is likely to make a big mistake.
Cao Yuan was getting angry when he turned around and saw that it was Huo Binglin. He immediately calmed down and said, "Mr. Huo...what he said makes sense! But these people can't escape the death penalty. You must find out what happened to these poisons for me." What’s going on! Get out of here!”
Huo Binglin nodded, and after everyone left, he said: "Mr. City Lord, I actually discovered something, but it's important, so I don't know whether I should talk about it or not!"
Cao Yuanzheng frowned. When did his staff officer become so hesitant? "Tell me! What did you find?"
"There is a power of law hidden in this poison, and the power of this law is much higher than mine. I suspect that someone did it deliberately. As for who it is, I guess..."
Huo Binglin said, pointing meaningfully to the south.
