"It smells so familiar." As soon as Master Chen Jing stepped into the water house in Chenyue Bay, Lin Jiu sniffed inadvertently.
"The smell of poison." In just a moment, Lin Jiu understood where this familiar smell came from.
As the saying goes, there is no separation between medicine and poison.
A person who is good at using medicine will have a medicinal smell on his body after being with medicine for a long time. When people smell it, they will know that this person has been dealing with elixirs and let people know that this person is quite accomplished in using medicine. .
The same goes for poison.
People who have been dealing with toxins for a long time will also have a unique smell of toxins lingering on their bodies - but the toxins are secretive, and ordinary practitioners cannot smell the toxins, but for those who have mastered the source of the toxins in the Great Poison Heaven In front of me, the poisonous questions wrapped around Old Taoist Chen Jing's body were as eye-catching as the sudden fragrance of flowers among the green grass.
"This kind of poison..." For a moment, when Old Taoist Chen Jing was already talking in the main hall about the various responsibilities that Shen Yuewan must shoulder after accepting the authority of Youmen Gorge, Lin Jiu finally It reminds me of where this familiar feeling comes from.
Red Snake.
Eight golden suns.
Cloud thief!
The smell of toxins on Chen Jing's body was exactly the same as the toxin that Lin Jiu had come into contact with on the Eight Golden Suns!
"Is this old Taoist the one among the Cloud and Mist Thieves who specializes in preparing toxins?" Lin Jiu still closed his eyes and remained silent, letting Old Taoist Chen Jing wag his lips and talk in the hall.
"It's finally here."
"I almost thought you were going to give up on me as your prey." Lin Jiu's heart moved slightly. "I've caught you!"
The toxins on the eight golden suns are extremely exquisite and are not made by nature. This means that among the Yunwu Thieves, there must be someone who is proficient in preparing toxins - the Yunwu Thieves are proficient in the use of poisons. The one who prepares toxins This person, that is, the old Taoist Chen Jing in front of him, must have a pivotal position among the Yunwu Thieves.
"Your Majesty, the people from Youmen Gorge have bad intentions. Why should you listen to his noise? Let's drive him out first." Qi Honghui's voice sounded in the main hall.
As another Yuanshen-level powerhouse in Shenyue Bay, and as the former Water God of Shenyue Bay, Qi Honghui naturally has the qualifications to enter the Water God's Mansion - in fact, there are many things in the Water God's Mansion that the All Saint Princess cannot reach. Qi Honghui is in charge of everything.
Therefore, at this time, when Old Master Chen Jing came with the "apology" from Youmen Gorge, Qi Honghui would naturally listen in the main hall.
As a well-rounded person, Qi Honghui could of course hear the unintended meaning in Chen Jing's words - the Pylorus Water God used the power of the Water God as an apology to gain a head start. It seemed sincere to the extreme, but in fact, it was just trouble. It's just a strategy to divert people to the east.
It seems that this water god's authority is an apology, but in fact, what this apology means is a huge trouble.
Once they accept the authority of the Water God, they must send manpower to support Youmen Gorge.
At that time, what should be done with the former Pylorus Water God in Youmen Gorge? What should he do with the Water Tribe soldiers he single-handedly raised?
If we want to forcefully subdue the Youmen Water God, how much force will be sent to Youmen Gorge?
After Shen Yue Bay sends such a force, can Shen Yue Bay's own safety be guaranteed?
These are all things Qi Honghui needs to consider.
"Come here, beat this person with bad intentions out!" Qi Honghui shouted sternly, fearing that Princess Wan Sheng was young and energetic and could not resist the temptation of the water god's authority, so she agreed to the request of the Youmen Water God and fell into his trap. In a carefully woven trap.
"Sure enough, there are still sensible people in Chenyue Bay." Seeing Qi Honghui's reaction, Chen Jing was proud, but there was a look of fear on his face.
"Misunderstanding, Qi Shui Shen, this is really a misunderstanding!" Old Taoist Chen Jing bowed to Qi Honghui repeatedly, "Youmen Gorge is already in danger now. If there are no reinforcements from Chenyue Bay, the destruction of Youmen Gorge will only happen overnight. between."
Old Taoist Chen Jing kept trying to excuse everyone in Youmen Gorge.
"Before the old man came, Youshui God had already fought several battles with the Rakshasa people. In Youmen Gorge, they were almost out of ammunition and food. Even Youshui God himself was seriously injured and now he has no time to take care of himself."
"In such a situation, how can Youshui God still have the intention to scheme against Chenyue Bay?" Old Taoist Chen Jing said eagerly - although his words were excusing Youmen Gorge, his words inadvertently If the situation in Pylorus Gorge is exaggerated by another three points, the risks in Pylorus Gorge will be doubled, while the benefits will be close to nothing.
"Senior Qi, please step aside." Just when Qi Honghui was trembling with anger at Master Chen Jing's words, Princess Wan Sheng's voice rang out.
"From what the messenger said, the situation in Youmen Gorge is indeed not good." Princess Wan Sheng said. "Let's do this. You go back and inherit the Pylorus Water God first..."
"Hey, the foreign minister will go back now." After listening to Princess Wan Sheng talk about the disadvantages of Youmen Gorge, Master Chen Jing finally felt at ease - obviously, Qi Shuishen's advice was very effective, and it was obvious to others The new Shenyue Bay Water God does not intend to take advantage of this.
"But the dragon tribe is the leader of the water tribe after all, and I don't want to see many water tribes die in Youmen Gorge."
"Let's do this. The envoy will go back and tell the Youmen Water God that I, the princess, will relinquish the authority over the Youmen Gorge." Princess Wan Sheng said.
"Yes." Old Master Chen Jing turned around and walked out of Shui Mansion - but he had already stopped before he stepped out of the door of Shui Mansion.
"What did your Majesty just say?" Old Master Chen Jing's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
"Just like what you heard, envoy." Princess Wan Sheng said solemnly, "I have taken over the authority of Youmen Gorge, and I have also taken away the lives of many water tribes in Youmen Gorge."
"Your Majesty, no!" Qi Honghui stepped forward again to dissuade him.
"That's it." Princess Wan Sheng stretched out her hand to stop Qi Honghui, and then turned her gaze to Chen Jing, "The envoy seemed unhappy. Could it be that he didn't want to see me take over Youmen Gorge? "
Old Taoist Chen Jing only felt that everything was in chaos.
What happened between Youmen Gorge and Shen Yue Bay started as he expected, but the development of the process and the final outcome were completely beyond his expectations.
Even with his incomparable scheming, he still felt his scalp numb at this moment.
"How could it be possible?" Old Taoist Chen Jing said reluctantly, "It's just that the changes in these days are beyond the old Taoist's expectation."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The old Taoist will return to Youmen Gorge and inform His Majesty of his decision."
