When the man saw the thousand taels of silver, his eyes lit up instantly, and he took out five bottles and said, "Here! This is the antidote."
There were only three people in Chu Younan's group, but there were five bottles of antidote. The secret guards began to be tempted, but they were coughing so violently that they could not use their martial arts. They could only watch Chu Younan and his group take the antidote.
"I, Zhao Yulong, am a honest man. How about my antidote? Does it work?" the antidote seller said proudly.
Upon hearing this, the leader of the secret guards held back his cough and looked at the man.
Zhao Yulong, he was somewhat familiar with this name.
I was coughing so hard just now that I didn't notice that the voice was familiar. The face was also familiar, as if it was...
The person who sold poisonous insects in bulk to the Queen of the Underworld!
The leader of the secret guards wanted to say something, but he couldn't stop coughing and simply coughed up a mouthful of blood. Then one mouthful after another, like a fountain.
Not only him, but his brothers as well.
Chu Younan, Su Bei and Bei Yuanzheng were fine. It seemed that the one thousand taels were not wasted. Before leaving, he threw the remaining two bottles of antidote on the ground.
"Hey? That's four hundred taels!" Zhao Yulong said as he was about to pick it up.
To him, it was four hundred taels, but to the secret guards, it was life! Before he could pick it up, the leader of the secret guards pounced on him.
“You… ahem… sold… ahem… poisonous insects… ahem… why… ahem… can’t be used…” The leader of the secret guards took the opportunity to distract him.
Could Zhao Yulong let his customers see his miserable side? He immediately said, "How could it be useless? The poisonous insects I sell are all effective!"
“The blood... cough cough... has coagulated... cough cough cough..." the leader of the secret guards said as he secretly stuffed the antidote into his sleeve.
"The blood has coagulated? That's normal. Wouldn't it be fine if you just added some water?" Zhao Yulong said as he turned and walked away guiltily.
In fact, even if he added water to dissolve it, his poisonous insects were not as magical as he boasted. But it was okay, the guy looked like he was about to die.
Indeed, the leader of the secret guards was so angry when he heard the news that he almost died. How could he be so stupid and miss the opportunity, causing him to miss the reward from the Queen of Hell...
The Queen of Hell said that after the task was completed, she would give him back his freedom...
He held the antidote in his hand, but he couldn't put it in his mouth. He could barely breathe.
What made him even more angry was that his most trusted secret guard actually came up to snatch the antidote...
He treated that man as a brother...
Chu Younan didn't care whether they were still alive or not. Should someone be left behind to tell the Queen of the Underworld that Bei Yuanzheng was still alive? Otherwise, wouldn't she be living too comfortably? They had just walked forward for a while when they saw Zhao Yulong waiting there, with an earnest look on his face, with two big words written on it: "Make money"...
"Are you coming to Miaojiang to ask for Gu? Let me tell you, I'm a professional in making Gu. Just tell me what kind of Gu you want!" Zhao Yulong introduced incessantly.
Su Bei said something very truthful, "With such a professionalism, do you still need to promote it everywhere? Wouldn't your doorstep be broken down by people?"
Zhao Yulong was embarrassed for a moment, then he forced a smile, "Of course! I was just wandering around outside because I was afraid someone would come to my house to look for me. You guys are lucky, otherwise, you would have been cheated!"
As he spoke, his expression became serious. "By the way, let me tell you, not everyone here is a good person. Buying a fake poisonous insect is nothing, but don't run into a swindler. If you get poisoned, you'll have to pay a lot of money to get rid of it later!"
Su Bei really wants to give him an Oscar statuette...
Chu Younan tugged at her sleeve. He had already concluded that Zhao Yulong was a liar and didn't have time to waste talking to him.
Bei Yuanzheng vomited blood again, and it looked like it was half a bowl this time.
"Hey! Don't walk so fast! Has that brother been poisoned by a poison? I can cure it! It's not expensive, really not expensive!" Zhao Yulong's voice echoed behind them.
But Chu Younan led them to walk faster, and Bei Yuanzheng looked like he was about to die.
The Miaojiang Palace is easy to find, but the door of the palace is not easy to enter. I heard that Xiao Han is in seclusion and won’t see anyone.
"We want to see Queen Miao!" Su Bei said hurriedly.
"You can't just go and see the Queen Miao casually. If you want to see her, wait until King Miao comes out the day after tomorrow!" The soldiers guarding the gate obviously didn't take them seriously.
After three days, the cucumbers will probably be cold...
Chu Younan winked at Su Bei, telling him that if he wanted to go in, he didn't have to go through the door.
Su Bei understood, and the two of them placed Bei Yuanzheng in a nearby inn, preparing to explore the Miao Palace at night.
Coincidentally, they saw an acquaintance in the inn, no, two people.
One is the liar Zhao Yulong from before, and the other is the King of Xian Liao who has not been seen for a long time.
"What do you think Xian Liao is doing here?" Su Bei asked in a low voice.
Chu Younan didn't answer, and after a while he said, "He came to buy a Gu worm. He was the one who put the Gu on Bei Yanming, but the Queen of the Underworld got suspicious, so he wanted to buy another puppet Gu to control the Queen of the Underworld."
"Just buy it from Zhao Yulong?" Su Bei looked over there in disbelief. "Didn't you say Zhao Yulong was a liar? Will the poisonous insects I bought from him work?"
"It can be used, but... the effect is not satisfactory..." Chu Younan looked over there and explained to her while reading her mind, "Xian Liao bought it from an old man last time, but he couldn't find the old man this time. Zhao Yulong said he was the old man's apprentice."
"Really?" Su Bei looked unconvinced.
"Really!" Chu Younan smacked his lips, "But he was expelled from the sect a long time ago..."
"Well, I don't think he has studied it properly. So have they reached an agreement?"
"Not yet. We can't agree on the price. Zhao Yulong wants 100,000 gold, but Xian Liao said he bought it for 50,000 gold last time."
"Zhao Yulong sold a fake Gu for 100,000 gold?" Su Bei's eyes widened instantly.
"It's not fake, it's somewhat effective." Chu Younan couldn't help laughing, "If Xian Liao knew that the puppet Gu he bought for 100,000 gold coins had to be stuffed into the person's ears by hand, and that he had to hold the person's hand when controlling it, and that it might not work every time, he would probably go crazy."
Of course, how could Xian Liao be so close to the Queen of the Underworld? How could he stuff the poisonous insect into her ears? How could he hold the Queen of the Underworld's hand in front of so many people? This poisonous insect is a complete waste! However, Su Bei rolled his eyes and said, "We have to help him. We can't let him come here in vain."
Yes, they had changed their appearances, and Xianliao didn’t recognize them anyway.
So Chu Younan and Su Bei walked downstairs and sat down at the table next to Xian Liao.
"Waiter! Bring me a pot of wine!" Su Bei shouted heroically.
The waiter brought a pot of wine and Su Bei asked, "How much is this wine?"
"Reply to the girl, one tael of silver for a pot!"
"Why is it so expensive!" Su Bei slammed the table.
