Chapter 1235: Corpse Poison
Chapter 1235: Corpse Poison
The next day, the king of Huainan really prepared 100,000 taels of silver, and used ten boxes, each box was 10,000 taels, and loaded a cart full of them.
That's right, it's a cart, a carriage.
I was a little vague about the concept of 100,000 taels of silver before, and it wasn't until Li Qingqing explained to me that I didn't know how valuable this cart of silver was.
In this era, one tael of silver was almost equivalent to the purchasing power of about 600 to 1,000 yuan in later generations, and its value varied according to the different price levels in different places.
Even if you compromise and calculate it as 800 yuan, this 100,000 taels of silver is equivalent to 80 million in later generations.
Eighty million!
According to the city with the right price level in later generations, a house is 1 million, 80 million, that is also 80 houses!
No matter how you look at it, it's a huge amount of money.
What's even more rare is that it's still cash.
I thought that the king of Huainan would send Wei Gonggong and Tianyuan to Lin'an with us, but I didn't want to, he prepared the carriage and didn't even entertain us, so he sent us away directly:
"Two, remember our agreement, when you arrive in Lin'an, I will find someone to contact you. ”
As he spoke, he took out a piece of jade pendant from his waist, and with a slight force in his palm, the jade pendant was broken in half.
Kindness?
It seems that this King of Huainan is deeply hidden and is also a master.
After King Huainan broke off the jade pendant, he handed me half of it: "Jiang Shaoxia, you take this half of the jade pendant, if someone comes to you with the other half of the jade pendant, as long as the two halves of the jade pendant are closed and restored, it will be my person." ”
I took the jade pendant, and I felt that the material of this jade was good, at least it was worth a thousand taels of silver, and the king of Huainan was really wealthy, and he was destroyed casually.
Since he had no intention of keeping guests, I, Li Qingqing, also happened to save trouble, so I immediately said goodbye to him, left Huainan City, and went to Luzhou, which was Hefei in the future.
The two horses pulling the cart were the horses that Li Qingqing and I brought from Bianliang before, and the driver was a big man, with a rough face, looking a little brave, but he didn't know martial arts.
Li Qingqing and I asked him a few words, and when he turned around, he opened his mouth and pointed to his ear again.
He had no tongue in his mouth, and it seemed that his ears could not hear.
"This King of Huainan is very smart, this is to clear up the relationship with us, if we miss at that time, at least he will not be implicated. Li Qingqing looked at the big man driving the car in front of him, and said with a smile: "King Huainan is cautious in his work, and even the coachman has arranged a dumb man to avoid leaking the news." ”
I shook my head: "A person like him seems to be extremely cautious, but it is this caution that makes him unable to achieve great things." I feel that King Huainan has no intention of becoming emperor, but should want to support others. ”
"The Seventh Prince?"
"Nope. Li Qingqing denied my speculation: "Although the Seven Princes are ambitious, they don't have a city government, so they are very easy to be used by others and can't do big things." ”
"Then do you think that behind the back of the Seven Princes, there are other people who are using him?"
"That's right, someone wants to use the power of the Seven Princes to overthrow the current imperial court. Li Qingqing concluded.
"Then let's kill Qin Hui, wouldn't it be just right for this person to reap the benefits of the fisherman?"
"So, we can't make a rash move. Li Qingqing's eyes flashed with a sly light: "Let's take a look at the situation first." ”
......
After walking a few steps, just out of the city gate, I heard the sound of horses whistling, followed by a horse galloping, black clothes and black robes, appeared in front of us, blocking the way.
I looked up, "Huh", and recognized the woman on the horse: Isn't this the "Heavenly Demon Sound" Yi Zhuxin?
At the beginning, Yi Zhuxin was scratched by me with my fingernails, and she was infected with corpse poison, but in fact, under the influence of the rules of this world, the corpse poison is not very serious, as long as you are proficient in the inner family heart method, you can easily expel it.
I was in a coma and fell asleep in the palace of King Huainan for three days, and when I woke up, I didn't see Yi Zhuxin, and later I also asked Li Qingqing, and Li Qingqing told me that the next day, Yi Zhuxin saw me sleeping and left.
Unexpectedly, she would appear here at this time.
I looked at Yi Zhuxin, not knowing what she meant by blocking our way.
Li Qingqing had already reached out to hold the sword at his waist and pulled out a small section.
When Yi Zhuxin saw me, he turned over and jumped off the horse, kneeling in front of the carriage: "Jiang Shaoxia's swordsmanship is unparalleled, please accept me as an apprentice." ”
I:......!
How did this come to another apprenticeship?
And judging by the way she looks, she came to me to learn swords.
As she knelt down, I noticed one detail: one of her sleeves was empty.
That arm is the same arm I left behind the corpse poison before.
As soon as the thought turned in my heart, I immediately understood the reason: it is estimated that after Yi Zhuxin left, the corpse poison on her arm attacked, and she simply cut off that arm.
"Brother Jiang doesn't accept apprentices, you should leave quickly. Li Qingqing urged: "Otherwise, I will kill you with a sword." ”
"Qiang!" Before Li Qingqing's words fell, Yi Zhuxin pulled out a short knife from his waist.
I thought that she was going to do it with Li Qingqing, but she didn't want to, she waved her hand, and the short knife actually hit her neck.
"My right arm has been broken, and the Heavenly Demon Sound stunt can no longer be used, if Jiang Shaoxia doesn't accept me as an apprentice, then I will die here. ”
After saying that, she pulled hard with her hand, and she was about to cut her throat.
This woman is so ruthless!
The corpse pill in my chest was running, and with a flip of five fingers, I flew out, and with lightning speed, I fell to her side and knocked down the short knife in her hand.
Then he pressed his fingers and pressed her wrist.
Sure enough, all the internal strength in her body has been dissipated.
It seems that the corpse poison I planted on her at that time was still very strong, not only causing her to cut off her right arm, but even eroding her heart.
Not only that, but the corpse poison still remained in her body, making her face blue and faintly dark.
No wonder she came to me.
If she doesn't come to me, in three days she will surely die.
I still underestimate the power of corpse poison.
And now, after having the corpse pill, the corpse poison in my body is even more powerful and domineering, and if it is contaminated with people's bodies, I am afraid that it can kill people in minutes.
After thinking about it, I sighed, this Yi Zhuxin's situation, after all, was caused by me, and I saw that she was sincerely apprenticed, so I nodded: "Forget it, you follow us." ”
Yi Zhu was overjoyed and kowtowed to me three times: "Thank you, Master." ”
Li Qingqing snorted coldly, obviously hating Yi Zhuxin very much.
In this way, our team went from three to four.
I helped Yi Zhuxin remove the corpse poison, but her skills can never be recovered.
......
Along the way, taking advantage of the boredom of the road, he saw that there were patches of bamboo forests on the side of the road, so he asked Yi Zhuxin to cut three sections of bamboo in the past, and used bamboo as a sword to teach her and Li Qingqing swordsmanship.
