Fast travel: The host is too crazy to shoot, the system can't stop it

Chapter 125 Fantasy ([-]) Old Friend

Bloody smell?How could there be blood in the spices?

"Hey, I told you not to run away. Do you know how much you will pay? This is not an ordinary spice. It is full of treasures that can relax menstrual flow, activate blood circulation, and prolong life. These are the only ones in my shop..."

The proprietress kept emphasizing her loss, and even stepped forward to push Yan Nanxu.

Wen Tian, ​​who was on the side, finally couldn't help it anymore and retorted: "You're being unreasonable. It was obviously you who dragged me to see you in the first place. I said I didn't want to smell it, and you deliberately came closer with the sachet, so I pushed you away." The whole shelf collapsed in one click!"

The proprietress was stunned for a moment, and immediately put her hips on her hips and cursed: "Is there any reason for you to smash my shop, you brat? Hurry up and pay me, or I'll find someone to clean up the two of you!"

To be honest, anyone with a discerning eye would know that the proprietress is here to blackmail, that is to say, Jian Wentian and Yan Nanxu are both foreigners, so she is so unscrupulous.

"These two young masters are distinguished guests of my Yan family. My Yan family will bear all the losses. Please don't worry about it, the proprietress."

A voice came from outside the crowd, Yan and Ling walked here slowly, everyone knew this Miss Yan family and gave way one after another.

Seeing Yan's family, the proprietress lost her temper a lot. She looked at Wen Tian and Yan Heling, forced a smile and said, "This... this spice is really precious and rare, and the price..."

"Of course the price will be based on the selling price," Yan Heling said calmly: "You have account books in your store, you can tell at a glance."

The landlady's face changed again and again, and finally she seemed discouraged, and said in a low voice, "Miss Yan said so."

As soon as the words were finished, the attendants of the Yan family behind him immediately stepped forward to deal with the follow-up matters. Seeing this, the crowd gradually dispersed, and the street returned to calm.

"Thank you, Miss Yan, I will pay back the loss." Yan Nanxu saluted and said slowly.

"No, no, no," Yan Heling waved his hands and said, "Yan's family is not short of money, but they can't be bullied. This proprietress is notoriously fond of extortion, and the things she sells are also good and bad. She is not a good person."

Yan Heling walked to the fallen shelf over there, pointed to the ground and said, "Look, it's just that the shelf fell down, and she shouted and smashed the shop. The intention is too obvious."

While talking, Yan Heling leaned closer to smell it, and said to himself, "But this time it smells really good, the scent is so unique."

Yan Nanxu also took a few steps closer, but just as he approached there, a pungent bloody smell rushed over him. He subconsciously frowned and took a few steps back.

Except for Yan Nanxu and Wen Tian, ​​everyone reacted normally to these spices, but the smell of blood...

Yan Nanxu felt something in her heart. She endured the pungent smell and collected some spices to take back.

Wen Tian was a little dejected, he pulled Yan Nanxu's clothes and said nothing, and he couldn't blame him for this matter, Yan Nanxu said a few words of comfort, and the two went back together.

At night, people are settled.

There were not many spices brought back, Yan Nanxu put them on the table, the fire light moved slightly, illuminating the dark spices.

Yan Nanxu checked briefly. The raw materials of this spice are not complicated, nor are they rare. They are all common plants, but these plants seem to be mixed with some strange red powder.

These powders have a fine texture, sort of like...that kind of ground pearl powder.

"Host, what the hell is this? Are pearls ground into powder and then stained with blood?" the system guessed.

Yan Nanxu looked at the scarlet powder in his hand, and said softly, "Actually, there is a kind of bead, which is coagulated with blood."

"Coagulate with blood? Yes!" The system suddenly realized, "It's blood beads, mermaid blood beads! But it's very strange, mermaid blood beads are not a good thing, how could they appear in an ordinary spice shop?"

The mermaid blood bead itself is extremely difficult to obtain. Currently, it has almost no other use except for ornamental purposes. How could someone grind it into powder and add it to spices?

"Host, it can't be the ghost of the proprietress, right?"

Yan Nanxu shook his head and said, "No, that person is greedy for money. The price of mermaid blood beads is very expensive. If the price of her spices can't be compared, she wouldn't bother with that."

"Maybe..." Yan Nanxu wiped off the powder, and said in a low voice, "The proprietress actually doesn't know what it is, but someone tricked her into adding it."

But why should we add it? What is the use of these things?All are yet to be known.

But no matter what, it is necessary to investigate the store carefully. The matter involves the mermaid tribe. Yan Nanxu does not want others to know about it, so the investigation can only be carried out secretly.

Wen Tian's temperament is jumpy, which is not conducive to the secret mission. Yan Nanxu wants to go out alone the next day, but Wen Tian refuses to do so.

"No, where is Xiao Xuer going? I want to go too."

Yan Nanxu couldn't persuade her, so she finally thought about it, dragged Wen Tian to the lake, pointed to the lotus flowers all over the lake and said, "Well, I'll give you a task, you count the number of lotus flowers here, Let me know when you're done, okay?"

Wen Tian was puzzled and said: "But, is the number of lotus here important?"

"It's very important," Yan Nanxu said seriously, "This determines whether we can go back early."

As soon as he heard the words "go back early", Wen Tian immediately became interested and asked: "Really?"

Yan Nanxu nodded.

After getting an affirmative answer, Wen Tian immediately sat down by the lake and started counting lotus flowers one by one, with an extremely serious attitude.

Yan Nanxu felt relieved and went out alone.

The spice shop is not like other shops where the supply of goods is well-sourced. The purchase of raw materials in this shop is very complicated. There are individuals and groups, and basically they come as cheap as possible.

Fortunately, probably because the store had suffered some losses yesterday, the proprietress specially found two charlatans today, as if they were asking for something.

The whole process was not complicated, and it wasn't even considered hidden. Perhaps, as Yan Nanxu guessed, the proprietress didn't know what these powders were, she just thought they were some strange powders.

After meeting the proprietress, the two warlocks immediately left the city and walked towards the barren hills without stopping for a moment.

Yan Nanxu didn't want this clue to be broken, so she immediately released the water thread, and the transparent water thread followed the two of them silently, guiding Yan Nanxu in the direction.

The system tried to check the information of the two charlatans. There were no specific names, but there were some characteristics that coincided with the characters in the original plot.

"Host, in the original plot, there is indeed a non-governmental organization that specializes in catching murderers. They often dress up as quack warlocks and wander among the crowd, looking for buyers of blood beads."

"But something is wrong. How could they sell that kind of powder? The price is obviously not very profitable, or is there some magical effect?" The system was confused.

Yan Nanxu looked at the water silk used for tracking in his hand, pointing to the depths of the barren mountain, and said slowly: "So, they are selling powder now probably not for money, but probably following orders."

However, who was the order?What is the purpose?
When Yan Nanxu followed the two warlocks to the interior of the barren mountain, it was completely dark, the moon was high, and the forest was dark and windy.

The two finally stopped in front of a village in the deep mountains, which should be the base camp of their organization.

The village is not small, it can accommodate hundreds of people. Yan Nanxu made a brief observation in the dark, not wanting to startle the enemy, and planned to leave a mark first, and then think of countermeasures.

However, the two people who went back knocked on the door, but there was no answer for a long time. It was too quiet in the dark mountain forest, only the "rustling" sound of the trees...

Yan Nanxu frowned slightly and quietly released the water threads. The water threads floated close to the village, absorbing some water vapor nearby. When they came back, the water threads that should have been transparent had been faintly stained with light red...

With a loud bang, the gate of the village suddenly opened!

A long knife mixed with strong aura galloped towards the two of them!

The two of them knew some magic and evaded immediately, but one of them was unable to dodge and was directly pierced through the chest by the long knife. The thunder spiritual power on the knife swept across his body instantly, his heart suddenly broke, and he died on the spot!
Under the moonlight, a young man walked out slowly holding a long knife. Behind him were bloodstains of corpses all over the place. The lightning-type spiritual power on the long knife appeared and disappeared from time to time, but there was no trace of blood...

There were still a few drops of blood on the boy's face. Looking at the only person left, he tilted his head and smiled, "I'm finally back. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

The light of the knife flashed, and the man's head fell to the ground!

Then a few more people walked out of the village, they were supposed to be secret guards by their attire, they saluted the young man and lowered their heads to report something.

The young man wiped the long knife and the blood on his face casually, giving instructions from time to time.

"Wow, host, this person, this person is in the original plot," the system reminded in time, "He is the adopted son of the Luo family, and he is a ruthless person. He is the leader of the Luo family's secret guards and is responsible for secretly cleaning up."

Where there is light, there is shadow in the world, and this adopted son of the Luo family was specially trained to be a "shadow".

"How did we meet him? He has a bad temper, host, let's go, host?"

The system talked for a long time, and suddenly noticed that Yan Nanxu seemed to be staring at the young man in a daze, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were both puzzled and surprised.

Adopted son of the Luo family...

"Host? Host!"

Yan Nanxu suddenly came back to his senses, subconsciously took a step back, but unexpectedly stepped on a broken branch.

The subtle sound of rubbing was not obvious in the woods, but the boy's hand wiping the long knife suddenly paused, and then a strong wind accompanied by aura accurately hit Yan Nanxu!
The sheltered trees were blown away by the strong wind, and the moonlight shone into the originally pitch-black darkness, barely allowing people to see the true face of the person in front of them──
The long knife deviated from its original trajectory at the last moment, and the strong aura couldn't hold back, and it directly split a big tree beside Yan Nanxu!
"Host──!!" The system's heart was in its throat, and it wished it could turn into a real entity and drag Yan Nanxu away!

But the expression of this murderous young man gradually changed from surprise to surprise, he looked at the person in front of him and laughed loudly: "Teacher Yan!"

"Mo Tao?"
