The days when I was fishing in Zongwu

Chapter 195 The Grass on the Grave is Three Feet High
After entering Yushui City, Lu Xiaofeng first inquired about the news.

After confirming the location, the two found the inn where Sikong Zhaixing was.

A while later, under the lead of the waiter who took the money, Huamanlou and Lu Xiaofeng also arrived at the door of the house where Sikong Zaixing was.

After the footsteps stopped, the waiter at the inn knocked on the door: "Guest officer, guest officer?"

However, in the face of the waiter's knocking on the door and shouting, there was no sound in the room.

Regarding this, the shop waiter couldn't help but be puzzled: "Eh? I just delivered food to the guest officer yesterday, why didn't he respond today? Could it be that he went out? Shouldn't it be?"

"Come in!"

It wasn't until the waiter knocked on the door three times that a very faint voice came from the room.

Hearing the obvious sense of weakness in this voice, Lu Xiaofeng narrowed his eyes slightly, and quickly opened the door and entered the room without waiting for the waiter's reaction.

When Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou approached the room, Lu Xiaofeng immediately saw Sikong Zhaixing inside the room.

It's just that, unlike the cleverness in the past, Sikong Zhaixing's face is haggard, with no blood on his face, and there is a bit of purple blackness between his brows.

When Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou entered the room, Sikong Zhaixing was leaning against the wall weakly.

It's like a feeling of half-life stepping into a coffin.

And in the room, even with the windows open, there was a faint smell of blood reverberating.

Seeing Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou entering the room, Sikong Zhaixing said, "You, you, Lu Xiaoji, why did you take so long to come?"

When speaking, Sikong Zhaixing seemed to need all the strength of his whole body to utter a single word, filled with a sense of difficulty.

Seeing Sikong Zhaixing in his eyes, Lu Xiaofeng frowned and said: "The building is full of flowers".

The moment the voice came out, Hua Manlou instantly moved to Sikong Jiexing's side and started the pulse for Sikong Jiexing.

Lu Xiaofeng turned around and gave the waiter a piece of silver to send him away.

After the door was closed, Lu Xiaofeng quickly walked to the bed.

However, at this time, Hua Manlou frowned slightly, and his expression was also solemn.

After removing his hand from Sikong Jiexing's wrist, Hua Manlou took out a pill bottle from his bosom and poured out a mouthful of pill.

After feeding the mixed water to Sikong Zhaixing, as the effect of the medicine began to take effect, Sikong Zhaixing spit out a mouthful of purple blood instantly.

Seeing this, Lu Xiaofeng asked: "Fixed?"

Hua Manlou shook his head and said, "There's no cure, just use the detoxification pill to temporarily suppress the poison on his body."

Lu Xiaofeng was surprised: "You can't do anything with your medical skills?"

Facing Lu Xiaofeng's question, Hua Manlou shook his head and said, "Over the years, I have never seen such a strange poison, let alone solved it."

Hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng took a step forward and sat on the bed.

As if knowing Lu Xiaofeng's intentions, Sikong Zaixing and Hua Manlou said at the same time: "No."

Hearing what Sikong Zaixing and Hua Manlou said in unison, Lu Xiaofeng, who was about to use his true energy to detoxify Sikong Zaixing, also paused.

Seeing that Lu Xiaofeng was puzzled, Hua Manlou shook his head and said: "The poison on Sikong Zhaixing's body is already mixed with true qi, which is enough to prove that this poison can corrode true qi. If you use true qi to detoxify him, the toxins in his body will It will also flow into your body along with the True Qi."

Sikong Zhaixing, who was leaning against the wall, seemed to have regained some strength at this time and said: "Yes! I just wanted to use my true energy to get rid of the poison, and that's why I became like this. Lu Xiaoji, don't hurt me."

After learning about the uniqueness of the poison of Sikong Zhaixing, Lu Xiaofeng could only give up the idea of ​​forcibly detoxifying Sikong Zhaixing, and instead asked: "I said, who did you offend to get this poison?" ?”

Sikong Zhaixing said bitterly: "Don't talk about it, this time it's really bad luck. I just wanted to steal something to get addicted to my hands, but who knew that I met an old bastard who poisoned my house, and I don't even know how I was poisoned, if you come two days later, you may only see my dead body."

Seeing Sikong Zaixing's miserable look, Lu Xiaofeng shook his head and said, "Your letter said that you want nine hundred-year-old chalcedony-level medicines, do you think it's easy to find? Immediately set off for Yushui City.”

Hearing this, Sikong Zhaixing's eyes lit up, "Is that enough? That's good, that's good."

However, just when Sikong Zhaixing's face showed a look of rejoicing, Sikong Zhaixing seemed to have thought of something, and his expression froze instantly.

After a few breaths, Sikong Zhaixing shrank his neck slightly and said cautiously while looking at Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou: "Well, can you get some more of these medicines?"

Lu Xiaofeng said angrily: "What the fuck, it's just these nine kinds. It took me and Huamanlou three days to piece things together. Do you think this thing is easy to make?"

After finishing speaking, looking at the slumped face of Sikong Zhaixing in front of him, Lu Xiaofeng asked suspiciously, "What's going on?"

Sikong Zhaixing wanted to cry but said without tears: "Before, there were nine kinds, but that guy said, if I detoxify and make the poison stronger, the price will change."

Lu Xiaofeng looked strange and said: "Since I told you not to detoxify early, why do you still use true energy to detoxify?"

Sikong Zhaixing said helplessly: "How did I know this poison would be so strong?"

Facing what Sikong Zhaixing said at this time, Lu Xiaofeng looked at Sikong Zhaixing, and then at the package that he and Huamanlou had just put on the table when they entered the door.

After pondering for a few breaths, Lu Xiaofeng looked at Hua Manlou and said, "Let's go! It seems that there is no hope."

When these words came out, Sikong Zhaixing suddenly felt anxious, "Don't!"

"puff!"

However, just as Sikong Zhaixing said these words, after Sikong Zhaixing's body shook violently, Sikong Zhaixing spat out a mouthful of blood again.

At the same time, as the mouthful of blood was spat out, Sikong Zhaixing became sluggish instantly.

Before Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou could react, another three mouthfuls of blood spit out.

Sensing the situation, Hua Manlou's complexion changed, and he quickly raised his hand to rest on Sikong Jiexing's wrist again.

After a few breaths, Hua Manlou took a light breath and said, "The detoxification pill made from thousand-year-old snow lotus can only hold down the time for [-] breaths. What kind of poison is this?"

Hearing the words "Millennium snow lotus" mentioned by Huamanlou, Lu Xiaofeng's eyes narrowed.

Thousand-year-old snow lotus, known as the holy medicine for detoxification, has the effect of detoxifying all kinds of poisons.

Among the poisons that Lu Xiaofeng knew, there were only a dozen or so poisons that the thousand-year-old snow lotus could not detoxify.

Not to mention the poison that can only suppress dozens of breaths like it is now.

It is conceivable how strong the poison in Sikong Jiexing's body is at this time.

Regarding this, Lu Xiaofeng also put away the previous playfulness, and said in a serious tone: "Who poisoned you?"

Sikong Zhaixing, who was supported by Huamanlou and Lu Xiaofeng, said with difficulty: "South of the city, the third street near the gate of the city, Chu House."

After the last word fell, Sikong Zhaixing couldn't bear it anymore and passed out.

Seeing Sikong Zaixing's current situation in his eyes, Lu Xiaofeng frowned.

"How long can he last now?"

Hua Manlou on the side also said solemnly: "Before I took the detoxification pill, I could last about four days, but now, it may only be four hours."

Lu Xiaofeng was puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Hua Manlou said: "I made a wrong diagnosis before. The detoxification pill refined by the thousand-year-old snow lotus just now did not suppress the poison in his body, but was swallowed by the poison in his body, thus enhancing the toxicity. Over the years, I This is the first time I have encountered such a special poison, which can swallow other medicines, it is truly terrifying."

As he spoke, Hua Manlou sighed and said, "It looks like the only thing we can do now is to find the person who poisoned me. But it seems that these nine medicines may not be enough."

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head and said, "Let's try it first! We can't let him have trouble like this!"

After finishing speaking, Lu Xiaofeng stopped talking nonsense, and directly picked up Sikong Zhaixing and jumped out of the window together with Huamanlou towards the south of the city.

Soon, during the two people's light work, Lu Xiaofeng, who was in the air, glanced around and saw Chu Qinghe's house.

After carrying Sikong Zhaixing on his back to the gate of this house, Hua Manlou asked, "Is this the place?"

Lu Xiaofeng said "um", then walked forward slowly and knocked on the door.

A few breaths later, while the two were waiting, a voice came from inside the door.

In the next second, as the door was opened, an incomparably pretty face was imprinted in Lu Xiaofeng's eyes.

And when he saw that the person who opened the door was so beautiful, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

At the same time, when Lu Xiaofeng saw Qu Feiyan who opened the door, Qu Feiyan's eyes quickly swept across Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou in front of him, and then placed them on Sikong Zhaixing on Huamanlou's back. .

"Huh? Sikong Zhaixing?"

After staring at Lu Xiaofeng's back for a moment, Qu Feiyan said crisply, "Who are you looking for?"

Hearing this, Lu Xiaofeng opened his mouth and said: "Please tell me the story, Lu Xiaofeng, please see me all over the building."

"Lu Xiaofeng, the building is full of flowers?"

Knowing the identities of the two people in front of her, Qu Feiyan frowned slightly, then said "Wait!" and closed the door again.

In the next second, both Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou sensed the fluctuation of true qi in the early stage of the Xiantian state inside.

Noticing the fluctuation of true qi, Hua Manlou sighed and said, "The maid who opened the door was in the early stage of the Xiantian realm. It seems that this time, Sikong Zhaixing really messed with someone who can't be messed with."

Regarding this, Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help sighing.

Just looking up at the words "Chu House" on the plaque, doubts appeared in his eyes.

At the same time, in the courtyard, upon hearing what Qu Feiyan said, Lian Xing said in a somewhat surprised tone, "Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou? Why did they come?"

Yaoyue said softly, "Because Sikong Zhaoxing came here."

It's just that the other women heard what Chu Qinghe said and understood the reason. Poor Xing himself only came to this courtyard yesterday, and facing what Chu Qinghe said, he was naturally even more puzzled.

Seeing this, Jellyfish Yinji briefly told Lian Xing about Sikong Zhaixing.

Chu Qinghe on the side gestured to Qu Feiyan: "Bring them in!"

"Oh!"

Qu Feiyan nodded, then quickly turned around and walked towards the front yard.

When Qu Feiyan walked outside, Chu Qinghe chuckled and said, "It's a few days sooner than I expected."

As soon as these words came out, Yao Yue and Yin Ji, the jellyfish, immediately heard another meaning from Chu Qinghe's words.

However, before Yaoyue and Jellyfish Yinji could open their mouths, they saw Chu Qinghe waving his sleeves, and a burst of energy rushed out from under the sleeves, causing a breeze to reverberate in the courtyard.

The next second, when Qu Feiyan returned to the inner courtyard, there were already two more figures behind him.

Seeing the person coming, the jellyfish Yinji and Yaoyue could only suppress the doubts in their hearts.

Facing such well-known talents as Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou, Chu Qinghe looked up at them.

While Chu Qinghe looked at the room between the two, Lu Xiaofeng, who had already stepped into the inner courtyard, also focused his gaze on Chu Qinghe and the others.

When his eyes swept across Chu Qinghe, Yaoyue, jellyfish Yinji and other girls, Lu Xiaofeng became more and more surprised.

From Lu Xiaofeng's point of view, in the courtyard of Chu Qinghe at this time, even the two girls who are fifteen or sixteen years old already have excellent looks and have the wealth of a country and a city. Able to meet the standards of Hundred Flowers Ranking.

Not to mention the other four, each of them is beautiful and has a unique and detached temperament.

Even Lu Xiaofeng rarely sees women who are as beautiful as these people.

In the past, even seeing one was enough to make people's eyes bright, let alone seeing so many at the same time?
However, when Lu Xiaofeng's eyes fell on Chu Qinghe, the doubts in Lu Xiaofeng's heart were instantly resolved, and he was instantly relieved.

Based on Lu Xiaofeng's experience, it is clear that women care more about a man's appearance than men like a good-looking woman.

With Chu Qinghe's appearance, Lu Xiaofeng felt that if he were a woman instead, there would be a scene of love at first sight.

For the first time, Lu Xiaofeng actually felt ashamed when facing other people.

This is hard.

Here, as Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou approached, Yaoyue looked indifferent, sipping the tea with a teacup in one hand.

A posture that didn't take Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou seriously at all.

The jellyfish Yin Ji at the side also raised her face slightly, and the smile on her face had completely subsided at some point, and she had the same cold and arrogant expression as Yaoyue at the side.

Where is the sweetness and cuteness when facing Chu Qinghe before?
Soon, following the approaching Qu Feiyan, he walked to the back of Chu Qinghe and stood there. Lu Xiaofeng, who also walked to the stone tabletop, lightly put Sikong Zhaixing on the ground on his back, and then cupped his hands at Chu Qinghe. : "Lu Xiaofeng has seen the young master, and he dared to come to the door, so don't be surprised."

Hua Manlou beside him also opened his mouth and said, "Hua Manlou has seen the young master."

Chu Qinghe nodded and said: "You are welcome, please sit down, both of you."

Hearing this, Hua Manlou and Lu Xiaofeng nodded in response, and then sat down together as Chu Qinghe said.

After Xiao Zhao stepped forward and placed two cups of tea in front of Lu Xiaofeng and Huamanlou, Lu Xiaofeng took the package that Huamanlou had carried on his shoulders and put it on the table.

As the package was opened, nine boxes of different sizes were immediately revealed.

"According to what you said, Mr. Chu can take a look at the nine hundred-year-old chalcedony-level medicines."

While speaking, Lu Xiaofeng opened the nine boxes one after another to reveal the medicines in the boxes.

After glancing at the medicines in the nine boxes one after another, Chu Qinghe nodded lightly and said, "In terms of value, it is indeed not much different from century-old chalcedony."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled and said: "Then, would you be willing to detoxify Situ?"

Chu Qinghe shook his head lightly and said: "The nine medicines are the conditions given by the poison in his body to maintain the state when he left my yard."

"But now, the poison on his body has changed twice. It's not enough for me to detoxify him with these nine medicines alone."

Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou's expression became slightly condensed.

After pondering for a while, Hua Manlou opened his mouth and said, "I don't know how many more kinds Mr. Chu needs?"

Chu Qinghe said calmly: "Not much. Since there are two more changes in the poison in his body, he will double the original amount and take eighteen kinds of drugs of the same level as the price."

Faced with Chu Qinghe's asking price, Lu Xiaofeng frowned slightly.

Sikong Zaixing didn't know the value of the century-old chalcedony, but Lu Xiaofeng did.

To put it bluntly, the value of a penny of century-old chalcedony is already comparable to that of a thousand-year-old ginseng.

Like now, the nine kinds of medicinal materials that can be collected are entirely because Huamanlou is the most wealthy in the world, and Lu Xiaofeng has many friends.

Otherwise, not to mention just a few days, even a few years, it may not be possible to come up with nine such drugs.

Not to mention, as Chu Qinghe said now, come up with [-] more drugs of the same level.

Not to mention whether it was the lion who opened his mouth, even if Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou were all gathered, the grass on Sikong Jiexing's grave would be three feet high.

At this time, Hua Manlou suddenly said: "The matter is urgent. If Mr. Chu can trust me, after Mr. Chu detoxifies Sikong Jiexing, I will try my best to order people to collect the remaining medicine. After three months, Definitely offer these eighteen medicines with both hands, I don't know what Master Chu wants?"

Hearing what Hua Manlou said, Chu Qinghe smiled lightly.

After picking up the cup in front of him and taking a sip, Chu Qinghe said leisurely: "Two questions, I allow you four months to collect them."

Hua Manlou said with a smile, "Master Chu, please tell me."

Chu Qinghe said slowly: "Will the Taoist Mu of Wudang participate in the decisive battle between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng?"

When the question came out, Hua Manlou and Lu Xiaofeng looked suspicious, not understanding why Chu Qinghe would ask such a question.

But after pondering for a while, Lu Xiaofeng still responded: "Yes."

Chu Qinghe: "When will Taoist Mu arrive in the capital?"

Lu Xiaofeng: "August [-]th, the day of the decisive battle."

"August [-]th?"

Facing the answer given by Lu Xiaofeng, Chu Qinghe lightly tapped the teacup twice with his fingertips, and the corners of his mouth curled up.

After asking Xiao Zhao to bring another cup of warm water, Chu Qinghe raised his hand and sprinkled some powder into the cup.

After shaking it lightly for a few times, Chu Qinghe flicked his wrist, and immediately swung the cup towards Lu Xiaofeng.

The moment Lu Xiaofeng caught the wine glass, Chu Qinghe's gentle voice sounded slowly.

"After four months, I will wait for the good news."

Hua Manlou smiled and said, "Thank you, Young Master Chu."

Chu Qinghe smiled and said, "Tea, please."

Hearing this, Hua Manlou nodded lightly, then picked up the teacup on the table and sipped lightly.

Next to him, after taking Chu Qinghe's teacup mixed with medicine, Lu Xiaofeng got up and walked to Sikong Zhaixing, and then fed Sikong Zhaixing to drink the water in the cup.

A moment later, under Lu Xiaofeng's observation, although Sikong Zhaixing's face was still a little pale, compared to before, his breathing was obviously a little more stable, and even the remaining breath between his brows The purple and black air also disappeared completely.

While Lu Xiaofeng helped Sikong Zaixing up, Hua Manlou also got up and walked to Lu Xiaofeng's side to help Sikong Zaixing.

However, when supporting Sikong Zhaixing, Hua Manlou's left hand rested on Sikong Zhaixing's wrist, and three fingers sank slightly.
