"A game of chess..." the five girls looked at each other and spoke.
"Your Highness, I guess this game of chess is not easy!"
"Naturally, the world is a chessboard, the situation of the world is the situation of the chess game, and all living beings on the land of Daqin are chess pieces." Ying Xiao said.
"In such a game of chess, Your Highness believes that Lord Chu Nan is actually another player. This Lord Chu Nan is really not a simple person." Duanmu Rong said.
"Everyone knows the legendary master of all schools of thought - Jiang Ziya. There must be a huge connection between Chu Nan Gong and this Jiang Taigong. How can such a Chu Nan Gong not be another chess player?" Ying Xiao said.
“It’s actually related to Jiang Taigong Jiang Ziya…” the five girls repeated.
"The real chess player has appeared, so the real game has begun. In this world, in the end, will it be the three households of Chu that destroy our Great Qin, the Han Dynasty that is established, or will our Great Qin last for thousands of years..." Ying Xiao murmured, with a gleam in his eyes.
......
In Shu, Meng Tian’s camp.
Ying Xiao, who traveled through time, finally met this imperial general, and also finally met this Chinese hero who fought against the Huns in the north.
But unfortunately, this originally tall, mighty, heroic and domineering imperial general was now lying on the bed like a living dead, his whole body was pitch black, and there were terrible lines lingering on his body.
There seemed to be countless "one" characters emerging between these lines.
“This is not just poison.” Ying Xiao said with narrowed eyes.
Chi Lian observed for a while, and just shook his head helplessly, "Even though I have practiced the Hundred Poisons Sutra, I still have no idea at the moment."
At this time, Duanmu Rong's expression changed drastically, and she trembled as she spoke, "This... this is the number one poison... there is no mistake, the number one poison in Western Shu..."
"What is the first poison?" Seeing Duanmu Rong's expression change so drastically, Ying Xiao asked seriously.
“Your Highness, Western Shu is the origin of the Witch Clan. The Witch Clan is good at making poisons. So far, all the poisons in the world come from the Western Shu Witch Clan. It is rumored that the first Witch Lord lived for a thousand years.” Duanmu Rong said.
"For a thousand years, the witch master has been praying to the heavens with witchcraft. His prayers were successful. Every hundred years, the heavens would send him a kind of poison. In the past thousand years, a total of ten kinds of poison were sent."
"These poisons are so terrible that people think no name can match them, so they are named according to the order in which they were born: the first poison, the second poison... the ninth poison, the tenth poison."
"Is there such a rumor..." Ying Xiao murmured.
"Your Highness, it doesn't matter whether the rumors are true or false. What's important is that these ten kinds of poison have appeared again, and General Meng Tian has really been infected by one of them." Duanmu Rong said heavily.
"Appear again? What does that mean?" Ying Xiao narrowed his eyes.
"Your Highness, these ten kinds of poison are too terrible. People who are infected with them will not die. Not only will they not die, but they will also live forever." Duanmu Rong said.
"What, Sister Rong, you said eternal life?" The Snow Girl was shocked.
Ying Xiao and the others were naturally shocked as well.
“Your Highness, that is certainly not true immortality, but rather turning into ten different kinds of monsters. They no longer have human consciousness, their bodies do not decay, their flesh and blood do not decay, and they only know how to kill, like a demon or a ghost.” Duanmu Rong said.
"This seems a bit similar to the medicine man made by Yun Zhongjun." said Da Siming.
"Medicine people can't compare with the undead monsters under the influence of the ten poisons." Duanmu Rong said, "The gap between them is like the gap between the heavenly realm and ordinary people."
"The Wu Clan was so frightened by the horrible poison that they burned everything related to the Ten Poisonous Gu and prohibited any Wu Clan disciple from ever coming into contact with them again."
"After that, gradually, the ten major poisons disappeared from heaven and earth."
"I didn't expect it to happen again... I'm afraid it's a disaster."
"Because the monsters under the ten major poisons have another characteristic."
"What are the characteristics?" Chi Lian asked.
"Whether it's a human or an animal, if they are scratched or bitten by a monster infected with one of the ten poisons, the poison will be transmitted as long as blood comes into contact. Then, the infected person or animal will also become a monster," said Duanmu Rong.
"Hiss..." Upon hearing this characteristic, the women couldn't help but gasp.
"It seems that this is the real terrifying part of the Ten Poisons." Ying Xiao said solemnly, "Then General Meng Tian..."
"Your Highness, in my opinion, the person who poisoned General Meng Tian should have only mastered the first poison. That's why General Meng Tian has been in a state of living dead for so many days." Duanmu Rong said.
"However, in ten days at most, General Meng Tian will turn into a monster."
"Ten days, this is why Lord Chu Nan wants to stop me for ten days." Ying Xiao said, "Miss Duanmu, is there a way to break this first poison?"
"Since Sister Rong knows the number one poison, there should be a way to break it, right?" Snow Girl said expectantly, "Also, Your Highness, you and Sister Chi Lian both practiced the Hundred Poisons Sutra, don't you have any solution?"
"The core of the Hundred Poisons Sutra is to make practitioners immune to all poisons, and to develop various powerful poisons. In terms of rescue..." Chi Lian shook his head.
"Unless you can use poison to fight poison."
"But this first poison is too overbearing. Any poison I have now can only serve as its nutrients."
In the end, all eyes fell on Duanmu Rong.
"The ancestor of medicine is Bian Que, who is known for bringing the dead back to life. Sister Duanmu must have a way." said the Great God of Destiny.
"Your Highness, the ancestor of medicine, Bian Que, did leave behind a medical book called the Ten Great Poisonous Gu. The reason why I know about the Ten Great Poisonous Gu is because of this medical book," said Duanmu Rong.
"There is indeed a way to crack it above."
"But, that method of cracking has never been used..."
"so..."
"I can't care about that now. Besides, Miss Duanmu, I believe in you." Ying Xiao said, "Tell me, what is the solution?"
"Your Highness, preparations in four areas are required," Duanmu Rong said.
"First, we need to find the Heavenly Silkworm."
"Secondly, we need to mix and match a hundred kinds of special medicines and a hundred kinds of toxins to develop a unique medicine that is only effective against this first poison."
"Thirdly, we need a great witch to use witchcraft to guide the medicine into the body and travel to every part of General Meng Tian's body."
"Fourthly, we need the fruit of the sacred Fusang tree from Western Shu."
"Hiss..." Hearing what Duanmu Rong said about the four aspects, Da Siming, Xue Nu and Chi Lian all took a breath of cold air again.
Duanmu Rong continued, "Your Highness, the second aspect is not difficult. Sister Chi Lian has practiced the Hundred Poisons Sutra, and I have also obtained many medical books passed down by Your Highness. It just takes some time."
"But now, what we lack is time. We only have ten days at most." The Snow Girl said worriedly.
"Internal force, unable to suppress the spread of the first poison?" Ying Xiao asked.
"I'm afraid not..." Duanmu Rong shook her head.
"Your Highness, it would be great if Lady Moon Goddess was here. Her sleeping seal might work." The Great God of Destiny suddenly said.
Chapter 61 Snow Mountains in the Western Regions!
"Sealing Curse, Your Highness, this may be a good idea." After hearing what the Great God of Destiny said, Duanmu Rong said, "I have heard that the sealing power of the Yin-Yang family's Sealing Curse is unparalleled and can seal all powers."
"But it's too late for Lady Moon Goddess to come now. Although Shao Siming and I know a little bit about the Sealing Curse, when facing this First Poison..." said Da Siming.
Having said that, Da Siming looked at Ying Xiao.
Ying Xiao started to laugh. "Finally, I heard some good news. Great Sima, Junior Sima, please use all your strength to cast the Sealing Spell on me."
"Yes, Your Highness..."
As the Great Sima Ming and the Lesser Sima Ming jointly cast the sleeping spell, Ying Xiao began to understand.
[Ding! The host personally feels the sleeping seals of the Great Sima and the Lesser Sima, and comprehends the most powerful sleeping seal! ]
"It's done!" Ying Xiao said to Duanmu Rong.
"Your Highness, let me observe and see how many layers of sleeping spells are most appropriate to plant on General Meng." Duanmu Rong whispered and immediately performed acupuncture on Meng Tian.
After a while, Duanmu Rong said again, "Your Highness, first use all your strength to cast the Sealing Spell on General Meng's head."
"Okay!" Ying Xiao nodded and immediately exerted his full strength.
Under Ying Xiao's full strength of the sleeping seal, the poisonous marks on Meng Tian's body immediately decreased a lot.
"Your Highness, continue. This time, perform it on your heart." Duanmu Rong said again.
After seven times of the sleeping seal, Duanmu Rong called for a stop.
"Seven times is General Meng's limit. Although it is not the limit of the Sealing Curse against the First Poison, General Meng is not a master of the Heaven and Man Realm after all. He can't withstand too much collision of the two forces." Duanmu Rong said.
"How much time can that buy?" asked the Great God of Destiny.
"Be conservative, a hundred days will be fine." Duanmu Rong said.
"A hundred days should be enough." Ying Xiao said.
"Your Highness, it's best to find the Celestial Silkworm first. The Celestial Silkworm is the natural enemy of all poisonous insects. As long as we get the Celestial Silkworm first, I can ensure that General Meng will not become a poisonous monster." Duanmu Rong repeated.
"The Heavenly Silkworm can only be found at the end of Western Shu, on the top of the snow-capped mountains in the Western Regions."
"There is no time to lose. Chi Lian, you will follow me." Ying Xiao immediately arranged, "Grand Sima, Junior Sima, Xue Nu, you will take turns to explore the military camp. There must not be any mistakes."
"If those tribes from Western Shu come to challenge us, we are not allowed to fight them. We just need to be prepared."
"Yes, Your Highness."
"Miss Duanmu, until I bring back the Heavenly Silkworm, General Meng's safety is entrusted to you."
"Don't worry, Your Highness. There will be no problem."
......
There were many ferocious beasts and poisonous insects in the jungles of Western Shu. Chi Lian used several red lotus king snakes to clear the way, thus avoiding the battle with the beasts and poisonous insects, which greatly saved the time for the two to reach the foot of the snow-capped mountains in the Western Regions.
It only took three days for the two of them to arrive.
The sky and earth are vast, and the snow is endless.
In the center of the mountain range, there stands a solitary peak, which is the Snow Mountain of the Western Regions.
The wind is howling and the cold is biting. There is no life here, only cold death.
"Your Highness, this snow mountain..." Looking at the snow-capped mountain that was as straight as a waterfall and covered with layers of black ice, Chi Lian's tone was no longer as charming as before, but solemn.
She couldn't get up.
If she forced her way up, there would be only one result, that is, she would become an eternal ice sculpture halfway up the mountain.
"Don't worry, I'm here. I'll carry you up the mountain." Ying Xiao said. Chi Lian must go up. Without Chi Lian's ability, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack for Ying Xiao to find the Heavenly Silkworm on the top of the snow mountain.
"Your Highness, this..." Chi Lian's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment.
"Let's go..." Ying Xiao smiled.
By activating the Nine Yang Divine Art, Ying Xiao's internal energy was endless, and the internal energy of the Nine Yang Divine Art was extremely hot, so the two were not afraid of the biting cold.
Even for Ying Xiao, it took two days and two nights to reach the top of the snow mountain.
"Your Highness King Wu, we have been waiting for you for a long time..." At this moment, a teasing voice came from the top of the snow-capped mountain, and a barbarian army from Western Shu appeared there.
"Your Majesty, the King of Qin, is truly heroic. He came up against such black ice, such cold wind, and such snowy mountains with nothing on his hands, and he even carried a beauty on his back..."
"Could it be that His Majesty the King of Wu knows that we brothers are lonely and asked the beauty to accompany us to relieve our boredom?"
"Hahaha..."
"Don't worry, I will accompany you to entertain you..." Chi Lian said charmingly and coldly, and she had inadvertently performed the fire charm technique.
Immediately, many barbarian soldiers were caught in the trap and all became wretched, "Beauty, we are here..."
Then, they jumped off the snow mountain one by one. When they reacted, all they could hear were desperate screams.
"Hand on..."
At this moment, those barbarian soldiers who were not affected by the fire charm were frightened and kept roaring.
Immediately afterwards, rows of huge ice rocks rolled down from above.
Between the ice and the rocks, there were spears soaked in poison and pierced down.
"Dragon God Skill..."
At this distance, Ying Xiao could use the Dragon God Skill to reach the target in one breath without any problem.
The dragon's roar echoed, and the dragon's shadow wrapped around Chi Lian and soared upwards. The internal force of the Nine Yang Divine Art was gushing out like the legendary dragon's breath, directly wiping out one third of the barbarian soldiers, as many as a thousand.
This is an army of three thousand men.
"Look at the attire, they are indeed Yiqu barbarians." Ying Xiao said coldly, "General Meng's expedition to Western Shu this time was mainly caused by the Yiqu barbarians."
"During the reign of our previous king, King Huiwen of Qin, Yiqu was not completely wiped out. Since Yiqu fled to Western Shu, they have been secretly uniting with the various tribes of Western Shu, waiting for an opportunity to rebel against the Qin Dynasty."
"This time, I have come in person, vowing to destroy Yiqu and to ensure that there will be no more war in the west of Great Qin."
