Chapter 12 Valley of Insects (269/588)

The rain never stops in the autumn night, the lights in the small tavern on the street are dim, and two tables of guests are sitting in it, all covered in dust.

Xu Buling held an oil-paper umbrella and accompanied Zhongli Chuchu to the restaurant. He found a table in the corner and sat down, ordered a pot of wine, turned his head to look at the two tables of drinkers.

The Chu area was fighting. In order to avoid war, ordinary people and the people in the martial arts world could run away long ago, and very few people came from other places. At this time, the two tables of guests sitting in the restaurant were obviously a family, with men, women, old and young, carrying packages with them. It was not as simple as simply walking in the martial arts world, nor was it like running away when they were making trouble.

Nanyue's national strength is very weak and has been bullied by Dayue for many years. People in the martial arts world are also looked down upon by Dayue's martial arts world. When Dayue walks, he is mostly low-key. When he sees Xu Buling and Zhongli Chuchu walking in, the clothes he wears look like the children of a large family, so he naturally restrains himself, but he just lowers his head to eat and stops talking.

Zhongli Chuchu sat for a while, and saw that the other party stopped talking, he simply spoke:

"Cousin, how about this wine?"

He used the Nanyue dialect, and the sound was soft and nice, but Xu Buling obviously couldn't understand it. He looked at Zhongli Chuchu with a blank look on his face. After thinking about it, he laughed.

"Brother Duo Junyi, why is he a fool..."

A woman at the dinner table next to her was sneaking a glance when Xu Buling came in. Seeing this scene, she sighed in a low voice. A middle-aged man with a scimitar at the same table was about forty years old. When she heard Chuchu's words, she turned around and showed a little surprise:

"The girl also came from Liuzhou? A fellow villager."

Seeing this, Zhongli Chuchu naturally showed a look of surprise and turned her head:

"Several people came from there too?"

The middle-aged man saw Zhongli Chuchu's green eyes and was stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and fisted:

"Is the girl the 'Blue-eyed Scorpion' Zhongli Chuchu?"

When people in the martial arts world are walking outside, they mostly have a cool mixed account. When Zhongli Chuchu was just running away from home and strolling around, she did give herself such a name because she was superb and beautiful in Nanyue because she was very famous.

However, this is obviously the "black history" when he was young and ignorant. Now that he has seen the world, when he hears this mixed number similar to the "Fenhe Sword God", Zhongli Chuchu wishes to cut himself a few times, and he gets goosebumps all over his body.

Fortunately, the other party also used dialect, so Xu Buling couldn't understand it.

Zhongli Chuchu smiled and nodded slightly: "I used to have such a mixed number, but it was useless. I didn't expect that this elder brother still remembers it."

Hearing this, the guests at both tables showed surprise on their faces. The middle-aged man stood up and exclaimed:

"Miss Zhongli is too modest. You are a celebrity in Liuzhou. You are the only one in Nanyue now. You are the most famous person than the "Seven Stars of Nanyue" in our place. However, I heard that you married the son of a prince Dayue. The little prince is fighting in the vicinity with his soldiers..."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man's face changed and he looked at Xu Buling next to him.

Xu Buling couldn't understand what both sides were saying, but he could guess the rough idea by observing his words and expressions. He raised his hand:

"You guys don't have to be nervous. I just accompany Chuchu out for a walk, there is no other meaning."

The middle-aged man's body was tense. After thinking about it for a while, he felt that even if Dayue caught the enemy's spies, he would not be in the right place to let the contemporary Wukui and the son of the vassal kings catch some of them. This was too polite to them. Thinking of this, the middle-aged man relaxed a little and raised his hand to bow:

"In the summer of Liuzhou, I will pay homage to the little prince."

This time, he was talking about Yayan, who was familiar with the world. Xu Buling nodded with laughter: "Don't be so polite, sit down. Chu is fighting, why did Brother Dong run to Chu at this time?"

Seeing that Xu Buling was quite easy-going, Dong Qing was no longer afraid and returned to the table to sit down, shook his head and sighed:

"Nanyue is a small place, and the news spreads slowly, and the little prince may not know. As today's chaos, our government has gone crazy and captured strong men everywhere to serve as troops. The world is not peaceful, and some evil ways emerge from somewhere, using poison to harm the villages in the mountains. It seems that Sikongzhi's work is done by him. As long as it is a disaster village, men, women, young and old, they go crazy and kill people when they see them. The last one is left is really tragic..."

Xu Buling frowned slightly when he heard this.

The border of Nanyue is not large, but it is still a country after all. There are not without outstanding people in the world. The "Seven Stars of Nanyue" mentioned by Dong Qing are among the most representative masters of Nanyue, so Xu Buling has some understanding.

The Seven Stars are just a general term, just like the Ten Martial Arts, and are not people of the same power.

The most common things in the Nanyue Rivers are strange people and strange things. In terms of martial arts attainments, they are definitely not as good as the famous and upright sects in the Central Plains. However, when it comes to using evil tricks, no one in the world can surpass them. Any Zhongli Jiujiu can force half of the martial arts to dare not get close to them. You can imagine the level of these people.

The Sikong Zhi mentioned by Dong Qing is considered a hero in the Nanyue River. He is good at using poison levels and has a lot of blood and debts. At that time, Xu Buling Zhongluo Dragon Gu, so King Su sent someone to Nanyue to find the antidote, and he wanted to find Sikong Zhi, but unfortunately he didn't find it.

Sikongzhi was in Nanyue and had nothing to do with Xu Buling. The reason why he frowned was because of some records of the founding battle before Jiazi.

Sikongzhi is not a murderer, but an expert in using poison. According to rumors, Sikongzhi and Shangguan Qinhe in the "Seven Stars of Nanyue" are both remnants of the Baizhai Valley of the Nanyue Poison Sect before Jiazi.

After Emperor Xiaozong of Dayue founded the country, he specially ordered to send heavy troops to clear out the evil paths of the Nanyue River and the Lake of the River. The biggest reason was that it was Baishou Valley.

A powerful force in the world can be so valued by the emperors of the Central Plains. The "Dragon Lock Gu" that has made the masters of the world still change their qualities is the masterpiece of the Baimeng Valley, but the Dragon Lock Gu is definitely not the poison with the most lethality of the Baimeng Valley.

During the chaos of the Three Kingdoms, some hostile forces recruited drug soldiers from Nanyue and threw the "Crazy King Gu" in the military camp. This poison does not kill, but has a strong hallucination effect, which can affect people's minds and cause people with weak willpower to fall into extreme fear or extreme excitement.

It was this poison that directly led to several mutinies in the entire battalion and thousands of people killed each other. In order to prevent the spread, the surrounding troops had to use crossbows to shoot all their robes in the barracks and set fire to the fire.

Until today, when Dayue's army set up camp, there were people who specially cleaned up the surrounding areas to prevent birds, rats, snakes, etc. from bringing poison from outside, which shows how deep the scars left in memory are.

Before Jiazi, Baizeng Valley was burned all over, and all kinds of poisons were burned. Only the Gu King Lock Dragon Gu was left behind by the head of the Xiao family. The Crazy King Gu was the focus of the imperial court to clean up and it was impossible to stay.

But what Dong Qing said, "Everyone, both men, women, young and old, goes crazy and kills everyone you see, and the last one is not left." It is very similar to the Crazy King Gu recorded in the previous Jiazi file. Xu Buling is naturally alert to this. If Nanyue is secretly studying such a thing that is not inferior to the plague, it would not be a trivial matter.

Zhongli Chuchu didn't feel anything about Sikongzhi's evil deeds, because the evil deeds of slaughtering villages in the ghost place in Nanyue were really uncommon. After hearing Dong Qing's words for a moment, she asked:

"Brother Dong, what's going on in Feishuiling?"

Dong Qing shook his head and sighed: "The court recruited men everywhere. I didn't want to fight, so I took my little brother to this side. The eighteen villages around Feishui Mountain, with a total of ten thousand people, had no choice but to run away. I heard that the old village was suppressed by the court and most of the people were captured. Now the head of the family is Zhan Bao from Erniu Mountain, and I don't know the specifics."

When Zhongli Chuchu heard this, her face darkened.

Xu Buling frowned, but he couldn't believe all the words of the Jianghu people. He still had to go back and send someone to inquire, and then discuss it carefully with the staff in the army before making a decision. If Nanyue is really in secret, he will be in Chu territory after leaving Liuzhou. This is a big threat to the rear of the Xiliang army. If it is confirmed correctly, he will probably have to take the initiative first and divide the troops to destroy Nanyue.

Thinking of this, Xu Buling stood up, took a waist sign from his waist and handed it to Dong Qing:

"Yueyang is fighting. He has no identity and cannot stay in a house. He has a sign to settle down in the government and find a place to settle down."

Dong Qing's eyes lit up and he quickly stood up and bowed: "Young prince is so polite. This will solve the big problem. Dong is really grateful. Tomorrow... Alas, my identity probably won't repay the little prince."

Xu Buling chuckled, but he just let someone settle down in Dayue, which was not worthy of help. He didn't say anything more at the moment, and took Zhongli Chuchu out of the restaurant quickly...
Chapter completed!
