Chapter 84 [Frequency of Secret Hands]
In the guest room, Luo Xiao saw the appearance of Mr. Luo. At this time, the rich man had long lost his previous arrogance. His face was pale, his eyes were blue, his eyes were dull, and his breath was as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.
There was no obvious injury in his body, and he only exposed his left forearm, and there was a bleeding point as big as an needle. He couldn't tell if he didn't have enough eyes. It was obviously a hidden weapon like poison needles, which showed that the opponent was secretly vicious when he took action.
Luo Xiao tried to sense it and shook his head secretly. The other party's original fifth-level Great Perfection cultivation level suddenly fell to the early stage of the fifth level, which was a damaging his foundation.
"It's the venom of the two-headed and belly snake." Luo Yangde next to him looked scared, obviously knowing a lot about this poison, and looked at Luo Xiao with gratitude, "If there was no help from Mr. Luo, I'm afraid that I would not be able to survive the fifth update... Mr. Luo is the benefactor of the Luo family's mansion in Yunzhou!"
The young master Luo also forced himself to hold his sick body and sat up and saluted Luo Xiao: "Luo Zifeng thanks for the merits given by brother. I will be rewarded in the future..."
He was kind to say, but he turned the grace of saving his life into the meaning of giving medicine, and he faintly expressed that he would not owe each other a sum of money. He was grateful to Luo Xiao for a "wild warrior" with unknown origin, but he remained vigilant.
Luo Xiao knew it well, but he didn't care. For him, this was a deal, so he wouldn't care about the other party's favor. He was kind-hearted and said a few unnutritious words like "It's just a little effort, no need to worry about it", and then he stepped down without disturbing the other party's rest.
Luo Yangde sent Luo Xiao out and asked him that he lived in Datongpu. He suddenly realized that his family had occupied most of the single rooms. He quickly apologized and asked the servant to pack up a room for Luo Xiao.
Luo Xiao didn't refuse. Compared to what he gave to the other party, this matter was nothing.
When the servant cleaned up the house, Luo Yangde couldn't help but take out the remaining half of Ziyunzhi and asked Luo Xiao where he bought the medicine. Luo Xiao's answer immediately made Luo Yangde's remaining words hold back: "This is the only thing left of the ancestors."
Luo Yangde took a deep breath, held the medicine bottle in both hands, and returned it to Luo Xiao with reluctance: "It's a good thing, a good thing!"
At this time, Manager Tao also brought a plate of golden ingots to Luo Xiao. Seeing his difficulty holding his arms, he was afraid that this plate of golden ingots would be no less than a hundred taels, or thousands of taels of silver. Even in Shengjing, he could still buy a good house, and this gift of thanks was not bad.
Luo Xiao thought about it, only stretched out his hands to grab a few ingots, and pushed the rest back.
Luo Yangde was surprised and was about to say something. Luo Xiao raised his hand to stop and said, "I am not refusing the gift. I want to ask Luo Weng for help to purchase the medicines in Bencao Tang."
Luo Yangde and Manager Tao were both stunned. The remaining gold ingots were at least 70 or 80 taels. Buying medicines? What kind of medicines can be worth so much?
Luo Xiao smiled and said, "The amount of medicine needed is very large, and there are many precious varieties..."
Now Luo Yangde and Manager Tao both understood and secretly wondered. If you buy so many medicines, you should build a medicine garden? This medicine garden is not something that ordinary people can build. It requires a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources... This young master Luo seems to be of some background.
Since it was a matter of duty, Luo Yangde naturally agreed readily. He learned that Luo Xiao’s purpose was the same as theirs, and they were all going to Shengjing, so he sincerely invited Luo Xiao to go on the road together: "Shengjing is the main office of Bencao Tang, with the most complete medicine and the best quality. If Mr. Luo goes to the capital to buy seeds, he will definitely get what he wants."
Everyone has the same purpose and it is good to go with each other, and Luo Xiao is absolutely fine.
The matter was done properly, and Luo Yangde was worried about his son, so he naturally would not sit for too long and retreat.
Luo Yangde returned to the room, stepped back from the person, looked at his angry son, and stopped talking, and finally asked the most worried words: "Has cultivation really fallen?"
Luo Zifeng nodded bitterly: "Although the poison is removed in time, the remaining poison erodes the internal organs, and the vitality is difficult to solidify and continues to dissipate. Now it has fallen back to the early stage of the fifth level..."
The fifth level is also known as the "relief stage", which uses vital energy to cleanse the internal organs, enhance the internal organs of the warrior, and accelerates recovery when internal organs are damaged. The poison of the double-headed viper in Luo Zifeng is severely toxic and has extremely strong erosion on the human body's internal organs. If Luo Xiao had not taken out the spiritual medicine in time, if it were not for the fifth update, Luo Zifeng would have died of multiple organ failures throughout his body, which is absolutely unreasonable. Although he has saved his life now, the damage to the internal organs is irreversible... This is equivalent to being broken, and it is inevitable that his cultivation will decline.
Luo Yangde still held hope: "When I arrived in the capital, can I get the resources promised by the eldest son's house..."
Luo Zifeng wanted to say something to comfort his father, but he knew his own affairs. This time he really hurt his foundation. Being able to maintain his cultivation without falling below one level would be a blessing. If he could get that valuable resource and slowly adjust it for a year or two, he might be able to barely recover his strength, but it would be almost impossible to use resources to leap to a great realm as planned. If he gave his father hope now, but he was disappointed in the end, the blow would probably be even greater.
Seeing his son silent, Luo Yangde finally understood. He clenched his fists with both hands and roared in grief: "They... are such cruel methods!"
Luo Zifeng bit his lower lip, and his originally pale lips almost bleeded: "If I can advance to the samurai in the future, I will not let them go!"
...
In a dilapidated house in a small village more than 20 miles away from the inn, the strong man who had plotted against Luo Zifeng and the old man were clinking glasses with each other to celebrate the success.
"Mr. Wu is a good method. A fine needle of cow hair solved a fifth-level perfect hard stubble. We didn't even lose our hair. Hahaha!" The strong man laughed and raised his glass and drank it all. He grabbed the roast chicken on the table and teared it in half. He chewed it all over. The two golden teeth shone brightly in the lights on the table.
The thin old man, known as Mr. Wu, had a calm expression, but his turbid old eyes could not hide his pride. He stroked the gray-white goat whisper and said lightly: "This errand has been done. The remaining half of the gold must be obtained as soon as possible and leave quickly. Although the Luo family does not have a warrior, the family is there. If something goes wrong, it will leak a little in the cracks of his fingers. Hire one or two wild warriors to block the door, we will not be able to take it."
"I can save this." The strong man's mouth was stuffed with chicken, and Yin Yin said ummy, "Don't worry, Mr. Wu, I have not worked with me once or twice, and I have made any mistakes..."
"Hehe, you two have really made mistakes this time." A sudden voice appeared in the room.
Jintoed Hu and Mr. Wu jumped up, one grabbed the knife and pulled out the dagger, and pointed at a man in blue wearing a hat that inexplicably appeared in the house.
"You, who are you? How did you find this?"
The man in green took off his hat and showed an ordinary face. He sat at the table with a calm expression, picked up the wine glass and filled it, tilted his neck and drank it all, and ignored the sharpness that was close at hand.
This calmness immediately calmed down Jinchihu and Mr. Wu. Both of them were old friends. At a glance, they knew that the other party was not a good person and did not dare to act rashly for a moment.
"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know a little..." The man in blue swept his sharp eyes across his face, "I'm here to clean up the mess for you."
The man in green said while dipping his fingers into wine, and wrote the word "Heaven Kill" on the table, and then erased it.
Jinchihu and Mr. Wu were surprised: "You, you also took on the same task? What you just said is wrong..."
"The idea is not dead, but the cultivation level has fallen..."
Before the man in green finished speaking, Mr. Wu screamed in shock: "How is it possible! The poison of the two-headed viper is the only one in the world. I don't even have the antidote, so how can I not die?"
The man in green looked at Mr. Wu expressionlessly and said, "I have a good luck in my ideas. Among the passengers at the station, someone brought a bottle of Ziyunzhi, which is more than 60 years old."
Mr. Wu was stunned for a while and let out a long breath: "This luck is really..."
"It's okay for poison to be used once without any precautions, but if you think about it, it won't work." The man in blue stared at the two people in front of him, "So, how do you plan to make up for this mistake?"
The golden-toothed tiger inserted his knife towards the table, and as the table and the blade swayed sharply, he said viciously: "Since it's so dark, then come on the spot. Even if the poison is not dead, this kid is still half-destroyed. Let's pretend to be a robber tomorrow and kill him alive!"
The man in blue sneered coldly: "The other party has three fifth-level warriors and more than a dozen third- and fourth-level guards. Can you eat it if you have to eat it?"
The golden-toothed tiger glared and said, "Can you just add you?"
The man in blue didn't say anything, but his body trembled and a powerful aura suddenly burst out.
Golden-toothed Hu and Mr. Wu almost sat down, their eyes horrified: "Sixth level... warrior!"
