Chapter 171: A Dilemma (2nd Update)
After breakfast that day, all the future fishermen of the new fishing village collapsed along with a martial arts instructor.
There is no bustle in the fishing village as it was a few days ago, but there is no chaos and chaos, just silence.
There are only three active people left, and none of these three are the fuss type. Shui Xin wondered if she had missed something, and Xu Shanyin was a little at a loss.
Shen Mu is face turned pale.
Shui Xin prevented evil spirits, but he and Xu Shanyin, including Hou Qian, could they do nothing and enjoy Shui Xin's protection with peace of mind?
Among the many assassination methods, the use of poison is a very common one. The three of them either lived in the mountains and forests for a long time, or roamed the rivers and lakes, or were born and died many times. They have considerable experience with poisons. How could it be that he was unprepared?
"It's in isolation at the moment. Even after the inspection, Shen Mu was still a little puzzled, "The clothes and bedding are all prepared, and they have not been added." Needless to say, houses and the like. The food is also the result of the stock of food brought by the county and the local materials. Every time we checked. And I've been monitoring the neighborhood all the time, even if a low-level monk is close to poisoning, it's impossible for me not to know!"
Shui Xin looked around, and was also a little depressed, "You don't know what kind of poison it is, do you?"
Shen Mu nodded with a pale face.
"Since you don't know what poison is, how can you guarantee that you will be able to detect it?"
"I've been experimenting with living creatures. Shen Mu felt that he was very cautious, so he was a little crazy, "Don't you see that I always keep a few small fish and a few mice that I haven't killed?" This is a poison specifically for humans!"
Shui Xin doesn't know much about toxins, but ......
"What happened together after breakfast, of course, the biggest possibility was that there was a problem with breakfast. But it shouldn't be poisonous, because at least I had breakfast. You can start by thinking about this. ”
Shen Mu regained his identity as a monk, and consciously accumulated a lot of impurities in the process of pretending to be a mortal. He doesn't have the same good rejection ability as the soldier's soul, so he has been eating Bigu Dan for conditioning during this time.
Xu Shanyin regained his past habits and demanded it from the mountains and forests. Even three meals are self-sufficient. Didn't eat with the fishermen at all.
In this regard, the fishermen are in sync, and among the three people who are fine, only Shui Xin is the only one.
But Shui Xin's body is self-contained, not to mention. The sword element is also a very exclusive energy. When ordinary toxins enter the body, they are directly driven out like other food impurities that cannot be absorbed, and they really can't cause any trouble.
As long as it's not too strong a toxin, Shui Xin can't feel it.
At this time, because she didn't notice it, Shui Xin judged that this was not a very powerful toxin.
"And I think ......" Shui Xin was shocked to find that she had taken on the duties of a detective again?
"If you can sneak into the neighborhood and poison everyone. That would be enough to kill you before I could react. So, if you're not mistaken. It should be poisoned from a distance. So you might want to think about it, is there a way to poison you from a distance but you can't find out?"
Xu Shanyin watched on the side for a long time, and finally came to a conclusion, "It seems." After a reckless temptation, the man who wants to kill you has a tighter plan. ”
- He said a practical but meaningless nonsense.
Shen Mu's face turned completely black, and he went to check it again. This time he used his spiritual powers. Check the meridians and organs of those children and teenagers.
He also had some antidote pills and the like, but he didn't figure out the nature of the toxin. If you use it rashly, it may be self-defeating. His early experience had already made him understand this.
After another half an hour, Shen Mu walked to Shui Xin's side again, "Poison can be cured." ”
Shui Xin looked at him puzzled-then you should do it!
Shen Mu took a deep breath, "But the toxin is attached to the stomach and intestines, and if I detoxify it according to my method, the bones of these children will be destroyed." The internal organs will be damaged. You must know that none of these children have the qualifications to cultivate immortals. ”
"Can you guess where the poison came from?"
Shen Mu sighed, and turned his gaze to the small square reserved for the fishing village, a round ball was half a person's size "salt machine".
"If your guess is correct, Miss Shuixin, it's probably attached to the salt of the sea. We control the amount of salt we use, and only take a portion of the seawater every day to separate the sea salt. It's very simple, I'll go and check the salt I received yesterday. But Miss Shuixin, this time, probably a monk's means. ”
Shui Xin's gaze turned to the north at this time, and the person also walked in that direction, "...... Well, I think so too. ”
After a pause, he said meaninglessly, "I almost forgot, even if it is a farming stream, it must come with a few superb ones." Since I might be stabbed to death by the best of the best, I must have a higher combat power at this time, right?"
Even in this case, Shen Mu and Xu Shanyin were still speechless all of a sudden.
But at this time, Xu Shanyin also discovered the restlessness in the mountains and forests, and Shen Mu also discovered the fluctuation of aura.
Xu Shanyin was fine, but Shen Mu couldn't help but laugh sarcastically, "I knew that the person who poisoned him wouldn't be hiding for a long time! If I simply made a ruthless decision and directly detoxified those little guys, wouldn't his efforts be in vain?"
Sure enough, soon, a young man with a somewhat strange appearance—about the same from the heart—swept out of the northern mountains and forests with a blast of wind.
With an undisguised smile on his face, he said, "I am here for Shen Mu or Mu Shi, and I specially ask Miss Shui Xin not to interfere." ”
After a pause, he said, "The people in this village, human life is not a pity, and it is always a pity for Hongchen to think of fire." Miss Shui Xin doesn't want her hard work to go in vain, right? If Miss Shui Xin doesn't interfere, when I solve Shen Mu or Mu, she will naturally take the antidote and detoxify the people in this village. ”
There was a clear meaning in his words.
That is, the antidote he did not put on his body!
Of course, if the antidote was on him, Shui Xin could kill him with a sword. Then search the storage bag. If he could have the storage tools that could withstand the search of the other monks, there would be no need to resort to such a despicable method.
- Judging from the power of the Yuan Shen that he exuded, he was also a monk in the early stage of foundation building.
But now it has to be said that despicable means often work.
Originally, she was full of confidence and felt that she could keep Shen Mu, but when she was completely caught off guard, she was in a dilemma.
On one side are dozens of lives that trust her and follow her, or the subsequent Hongchen Nianhuo.
On the one hand, Shen Mu, who she had indirectly promised to keep before.
Does she have to choose one side?(To be continued) R466
