The strongest ruler of the heavens

Chapter 486 Poisoning
In the courtyard where they stayed overnight, Lin Xi drew out his long sword and served as Meng Qi's partner.

Just now, he exchanged two sword skills from the main god to make up for the gap in his own strength, but he didn't choose to instill them directly, but asked for the secret book of sword skills.

Lin Xi, who was not far away, was pulled over by him as a training partner, hoping to master these two sword techniques as soon as possible.

He moved very slowly, sometimes pausing, thinking while moving the knife, looking clumsy and jerky, every time Lin Xi easily picked it away with his long sword.

"The essentials of each sword technique are the perception of creating this life, especially the perception of a top powerhouse, so when you swing the sword, you also try to comprehend..." Lin Xi picked Jie Dao away with his sword, and held it The knife leads to the correct trajectory, enabling him to grasp it as quickly as possible.

"Xiao Meng, have you just learned how to use a sword?" Daoist Tiger and Jiao Chong took turns to protect Lu Guan closely. When they came out to breathe, they happened to see Lin Xi guiding Meng Qi to practice the sword.

"No, I'm just trying to figure it out at the moment." Meng Qi withdrew his knife and replied coldly and politely. .

Taoist Tiger smiled, noncommittal, and asked instead: "Xiao Meng, you seem to be a master of both swords and swords. Brother Xiao Lin has superb swordsmanship, why don't you see him practicing with you?"

Lin Xi smiled and said for Meng Qi: "Although his swordsmanship is average, it is very dangerous. He will see blood when he draws it out of the sheath, so I don't give him any instructions."

Meng Qi nodded coldly, approving Lin Xi's evaluation of his sword skills.

Taoist Tiger's face twitched, and he walked to the other side.

The heroes of the rivers and lakes and the children of the Lu family resting around couldn't hide their smiles.

Lin Xi looked at him and asked, "Do you want to continue?"

"Of course!" Meng Qi held the Jiedao with his backhand, and said in a deep voice, "Only by mastering it as soon as possible can we hold the effective power in our own hands."

Lin Xi nodded, raised his long sword, and attacked him.

At this time, Ruan Yushu wandered out from nowhere and saw Lin Xi teaching Meng Qi to practice sword skills.

She watched thoughtfully for a while: "Your sword skills are in the bottleneck period?"

"Ah."

Meng Qi nodded, but the movements of his hands did not stop.

At this time, Ruan Yushu had no doubts about the strength of Meng Qi's saber technique, and also saw Lin Xi's views on martial arts.

With her lyre on her back, her hands behind her back, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, she paced back into the room.

At this time, the son of the Lu family who went out to buy food returned with food and wine, and her pace suddenly slowed down.

As usual, they scrutinized the toxins and had a black dog try each.

After a while, the black dog was still unharmed, and only then did someone take away their own share of food and drink, and leave the rest for the group that was patrolling and guarding.

Meng Qi, who was taken away by Lin Xi, was about to lean over to pick up the Jie Dao, but saw Ruan Yushu standing there in a daze, and asked in confusion, "Miss Ruan, why don't you go?"

Ruan Yushu frowned slightly, with a hint of puzzlement: "It doesn't seem very tasty, it's a bit strange."

As soon as the words fell, several people were covering their throats, He He made a sound, and fell down with black skin in a blink of an eye.

And the black dog was still alive and kicking.

"Poisoning? This poisoning ability..." Meng Qi's pupils shrank slightly.

Lin Xi smiled contemptuously: "It looks familiar, right?"

Meng Qi fell silent.

Over there, several people from the rivers and lakes who hadn't started eating due to various reasons threw out the wine and vegetables in their hands like avoiding snakes and scorpions, and the yard suddenly overflowed with the aroma of wine and the smell of meat.

"Poison impermanence!"

At this time, everyone in the yard shouted in unison, with obvious fear in their voices, and each put on a defensive posture.

The black dog happily ate the food on the ground without any abnormality, but the hero who fell to the ground was bleeding from all his orifices and was no longer breathing. The scene was as weird as it could be.

Lu Guan, Jiao Chong and Taoist Hu also rushed to this yard after hearing the sound, looking at the corpse on the ground with the same serious expression.

After a while, seeing that there were no other changes, all the people tidied up and checked the corpse, but the fear and defense in their eyes could not be concealed.

"Brother Zhongqi, what is Du Wuchang?" Meng Qi withdrew his thoughts from the previous reincarnation world, pondered for a while, and asked in a cold voice.

His question seemed idiotic and weird, but since he was young, it was normal.

Lu Zhongqi sighed: "Poison Wuchang is a well-known devil in the south of the Yangtze River. He is good at hiding and poisoning. His methods are ever-changing and unpredictable, making people hard to guard against. For example, just now, the black dog is fine to eat, but I will suffer from a catastrophe if I eat it." Poison, like just fishing from the river..."

The unknown is the most frightening...

Meng Qi nodded slightly, just like a ghost, the kind of existence unknown to ordinary people is the most frightening thing.

If it is visible and can be killed at will, then everything will be a joke.

After introducing Du Wuchang, Lu Zhongqi began to introduce the current situation and the top martial arts masters to the three of them.

He said a lot in one breath, seeming to remind the three of them to be careful of poison and impermanence, but Lin Xi could hear that he was taking this opportunity to vent his inner panic.

Although he was prepared for obstacles and dangers along the way, who would have thought that he would encounter such a terrifying enemy at the very beginning!

After checking the corpses and food, the tiger Taoist found that it was a strange poison, which was ineffective against living things other than humans. Although the toxicity was not strong enough, it was more than enough to kill ordinary Jianghu people.

For fear of being poisoned again, everyone didn't have dinner and waited for dawn hungry.

Lin Xi was lying on the beam, feigning sleep, holding a folding fan in his hand, not minding the current situation at all.

Under the beam of the house is Meng Qi sitting cross-legged in meditation.

At this moment, he was highly concentrated, listening to all directions, and the Dafa of phantom was working, not letting go of any slight movement.

In the middle of the night, Lin Xi suddenly heard someone getting up quietly, stepping out of the door, climbing over the courtyard wall, and fleeing quickly.

He was slightly taken aback, his eyes were full of contempt, but he didn't stop him.

With the first one, there will be the second, and the third. In just one hour, nearly twenty people escaped over the wall.

There was a lot of movement, Meng Qi also heard it, and his face was very complicated.

But in the face of life and death, the so-called righteousness is not worth mentioning.

At dawn, just as Lin Xi walked out of the room, he heard Lu Zhongqi's angry voice: "These bastards! What are you talking about being chivalrous and courageous? Whenever you encounter Du Wuchang, you'll fuck off and run away with your tail between your legs!"

At this time, apart from a few family members and guards, only Taoist Hu, Jiao Chong and two or three heroes remained beside Lu Guan.

Lu Guan's expression was calm, without any anger: "It's a sense of loyalty and an honor for Lu to help you. It's natural to worry about yourself and want to leave. It's a natural reason. There is nothing wrong with it."

Then he solemnly bowed to Lin Xi, Taoist Tiger and other remaining heroes: "This trip is dangerous, and there is a narrow chance of death. Please think carefully before setting off with Lu."

"Since the poor Taoist has come, life and death are out of the question!" Taoist Tiger said impassionedly.

Lin Xi pinched the folding fan and said, "Since I have decided, I will naturally not regret it!"

Holding his long sword, Meng Qi cherished his words like gold and said, "Don't go!"

Ruan Yushu didn't speak, but nodded slightly, signaling that he would not leave either.
