Chapter 254 Shan'ao Manor, Five Realms Poison Cultivator
Thirty miles away, even with one person in his hand, Zhao Ya arrived in just over two-quarters of an hour.
Sure enough, there was a manor hidden in this mountain valley hidden by mountains and forests.
"Who is usually stationed here?" Zhao Ya asked.
Xiang Gui was dizzy from the bumps along the way, but when faced with Zhao Ya's question, he did not dare to hide anything and spoke quickly.
"Cong Bo specifically ordered that I be responsible for developing offline operations on the outside. As for the defense of this stronghold, a person named Li De will be responsible for it."
"Reed? Who is he and what is his strength?"
"He is much stronger than me, but I don't know the specific realm. Although this person is also the leader of the hall, he has followed Cong Bo earlier than me. He is considered the elder of the Five Poison Sect."
"This person is usually not good at words, but he is vicious and vicious, and he is always willing to spend money. Therefore, no one in the church dares to offend him, and I rarely have contact with him." Xiang Gui said.
"What exactly is the layout inside?"
Even though there is a huge difference in strength, Zhao Ya still won't take it lightly.
A lion fights a rabbit with all its strength, not to mention that the Five Poison Sect is backed by the Beast Taming Sect. God knows if there is any special ambush arranged inside.
Xiang Gui told everything, and then Zhao Ya randomly asked a few of the fragments. After confirming that he was not lying, he slapped him unconscious and threw him into the grass on the roadside.
We can't kill Xiang Gui right now. It won't be too late to deal with him after this hideout is completely removed.
Zhao Ya used the spirit turtle hibernation technique, and the overall sense of existence quickly weakened until it was almost nonexistent.
Then Zhao Ya sneaked into the manor quietly.
The defense in the manor was not strict.
At least that's the case for Zhao Ya.
The villagers who were patrolling the night simply couldn't find Zhao Ya who was in a dormant state.
So he came to the core of the manor very easily.
This is a courtyard, but the layout is very strange. There is a small building built in the middle of the courtyard, which looks very abrupt.
Zhao Ya knew that this should be the Five Poison Tower used by Xiang Gui to cultivate poisonous insects.
As the name of the Five Poison Sect suggests, its followers basically use poisons.
However, the insect incense that Xianggui used today is extremely precious. Only the church leader and other middle and high-level leaders are qualified to use it. Ordinary believers can only use ordinary poisons extracted from various poisonous insects.
This has also created extremely huge demand.
Therefore, in addition to developing offline, the Five Poison Sect also has a very important job, which is to cultivate poisonous insects.
This is what the Wu Du Tower is for.
The guards here are much tighter than those outside, but they still can't stop Zhao Ya.
With a slight leap, Zhao Ya silently crossed the night sky and arrived at the top of the Five Poison Tower.
There was no sound during the whole process, not even the warning bells on the roof were disturbed.
Then Zhao Ya moved to a corner of the courtyard where the lights could not shine, leaned down, and clung to the wall like a gecko, moving around silently with the help of his powerful muscles.
Soon, Zhao Ya came to a brightly lit window and listened.
It was silent inside, but Zhao Ya could still infer that there were at least four people in the room just from the sound of breathing.
One of them has the longest breathing, and he should be a warrior who has mastered skin grinding. He should be the Li De that Xiang Gui mentioned.
The breathing of the other three was much heavier, and their strength was at the level of the Three Realms.
Zhao Ya felt confident.
If only the four of them had such strength, Zhao Ya could easily kill them instantly.
Just as he was taking action, he heard someone say: "Hall Master, that boy Xiang Gui went to rob the Yongshun Escort Agency, why hasn't he come back yet? Something must have happened."
"Yes, the Lan family is not someone to be trifled with. Although Lan Tang is old, his grandson Lan Qingshan is quite capable."
"Don't worry, this time Xiang Gui went out and brought the insect incense with him. No matter how powerful the masters of the Lan family are, they won't be able to make a comeback." One person said calmly.
The voice was cold and cold. Even just listening to the voice was like seeing a poisonous snake hiding in the dark and preying on people.
"So that's the case, then we can rest assured."
"Yes, with the cult leader's fragrance of insects, even if Lan Tang and his grandson have the strength of the fifth realm, they can still gain the Tao even if they don't pay attention."
"You said that Xuanhutang spent so much money this time and created such a big battle. Where do you plan to send this century-old ginseng?"
"Whatever, if it falls into our hands, it's ours."
These people were talking a lot, and Zhao Ya listened very carefully outside the window.
Because he heard a very useful message.
This time, it was Xuanhutang who entrusted the Lan family's grandson to deliver escorts.
Speaking of Xuanhutang, it is very famous.
This was originally a loose alliance of doctors among the people, but with the chaos in the world, the status of doctors has risen.
Finally, under the leadership of Sun Jingbo, a genius of medical master, Xuanhutang was born and eventually became a huge medical organization.
This century-old ginseng comes from Xuanhutang, so it makes sense.
I just don’t know where it was sent.
Zhao Yazou was born as an escort, so he naturally knew that this information was not very sensitive in normal times, but if the employer asked not to disclose it, then the escort agency with rules would not leak it even to death.
This is related to the brand of an escort agency, and there is no room for any discount.
So Zhao Ya was smart enough not to ask about Lan's grandparents before.
After listening for a while, I found that the people in the room could hardly provide any useful information.
Zhao Ya then stretched out his hand and quietly reached the corner of the window.
The weather is hot now, so for ventilation, the windows have been opened with a crack.
Zhao Ya held some medicinal powder in his hand, and soon followed the gap and floated into the house.
Then Zhao Ya counted silently in his heart.
one two three…….
When the count reached seventeen, a horrified shout was heard from the house.
"What's going on? Why am I feeling numb all over?"
"Me too!"
"No, someone poisoned me."
Amid the chaos, there was the sound of chairs being kicked and pulled. It was obvious that someone was trying to get up and run away.
Then there was the sound of someone falling to the ground, and then the room fell into a deathly silence.
Zhao Ya didn't rush in and waited outside for half a cup of tea. After making sure there was nothing unusual, he jumped lightly and entered the house through the window.
There were four people lying horizontally and vertically in the room, three of them were lying on the ground unable to move, and only one was sitting on a chair in the middle.
This person is a man about forty years old, with a hawk-nosed look.
According to Xiang Gui's description, Zhao Ya knew that this should be Li De who was responsible for guarding the manor.
But at this time, Li De had also lost the ability to move. He couldn't even blink his eyelids and could only look at Zhao Ya with horror in his eyes.
Zhao Ya did not rush to move him, but kicked the three people on the ground first. After confirming that the three people were extremely poisoned, they would probably die of respiratory paralysis in a short time, and then smiled at Li De.
"Your name is Reed?"
Li De could not speak, he could only look at Zhao Ya with wide eyes.
But Zhao Ya still didn't take it lightly. He suddenly flicked his fingers and hit two stones in succession, heading straight for Li De's eyes.
Seeing that the pebbles were about to fly in front of him, Reed sighed suddenly.
"He's really cunning."
As he spoke, Li De suddenly waved his hand and shattered the two stones.
"Both each other." Zhao Ya was not surprised at all and said with a smile.
Li De looked at Zhao Ya and suddenly said: "I didn't expect that Zhao Ya, who is famous all over the city, is actually a master of poison."
"You actually know me too?" Zhao Ya said.
Is my reputation so great that even people in this remote mountain can recognize me at a glance?
"Haha, Zhao Shaoxia is now famous. We, the Five Immortals Sect, naturally have to inquire about it in advance. I have seen your portrait more than once. It is natural that I recognize you. But what I am wondering is, what do you think? Are you saying I'm not poisoned?"
"Your performance is impeccable. You even pretended to have muscle paralysis, but you ignored one thing."
"Which point?" Reed asked.
But at this moment, Zhao Ya suddenly rushed out with his sword and struck Li De's neck with the sword.
"What a boy with no martial ethics."
Reed scolded, then lay back and jumped from the stool.
After dodging the sword, Li De reached out and pulled out his own weapon, a fine iron ruler over one meter long, and then he fought with Zhao Ya.
Zhao Ya was surprised to find that his previous guess was wrong.
This Li De is not a master of skin polishing at all, but a real five-level master.
Why does such a person actually live in this small manor, even with people like Xiang Gui?
But Zhao Ya didn't know that he was surprised, but Li De was even more surprised than him.
Stationed in this place not too far from Yandu City, he naturally heard Zhao Ya's name more than once.
But Li De scoffed at the rumors about Zhao Ya's glorious achievements, thinking that they were all rumors.
What kind of fantasy is this to defeat Kaimai in the Five Realms?
So Reed didn't believe a word of it.
But he didn't expect that after meeting Zhao Ya and taking action, Li De realized that the rumors were true.
Although they were both in the fifth realm, Zhao Ya was simply ridiculously strong. After just a few moves, he was forced to fend for himself and had no ability to fight back.
In desperation, Li De had no choice but to use his trump card and raised his hand to shoot out a cloud of smoke.
But he never expected that Zhao Ya wouldn't dodge at all, and even walked directly through the smoke, and then stabbed him again.
Really looking for death!
Although he was shocked, Li De's heart soon felt filled with ecstasy.
The smoke that I created was carefully blended with the scent of insects and various poisons. Even a warrior in the fifth realm would have to take a sip without carrying it around.
As a result, this guy actually broke out of it without any fear of being contaminated with poisonous powder. It is true that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers.
Therefore, Li De tried his best to dodge, planning to wait for Zhao Ya to be poisoned.
But a full minute passed. Not only did Zhao Ya show no signs of poisoning, but he became more courageous as he fought.
Reed simply couldn't accept this fact.
"Why aren't you afraid of poison?" he hissed.
"Isn't it the same for you?" Zhao Ya said coldly, while increasing the intensity of his attack.
In fact, Zhao Ya was also wondering, although the poison he prepared to paralyze the muscles and nerves had only been tested on the Half-step Five Realm, and had not been used to seriously deal with the Five Realms.
But it won’t have any impact at all.
But Li De behaved like a tiger, and it really didn't look like he was poisoned.
So Zhao Ya was also wondering what method Li De used to undo his poison.
Reed was already a little panicked at this time.
Even his trump card has no effect on Zhao Ya, so if he continues to fight, he will only become more and more passive.
Thinking of this, Li De couldn't help but want to retreat and planned to escape from here.
But at this moment, Zhao Ya's sword skills became more and more violent and firmly blocked Li De's retreat, making it impossible for him to leave even if he wanted to.
Even if it was for the secret of detoxifying his body, Zhao Ya would not let him go. What's more, he was very likely to hold the secrets about the Beast Taming Sect, so it would be even more impossible for him to let him go.
Reed was hit with a flurry of swordsmanship and was in agony.
Although he struggled hard, when he accidentally cut the iron ruler in his hand into two halves with Zhao Ya's sword, he was quickly defeated.
puff.
The sword flashed and cut off two of Li De's hamstrings.
Li De fell to the ground, roared in pain, and tried to struggle, but then Zhao Ya slashed his hand muscles with two swipes.
No matter how strong the warrior is, after his hand tendons and hamstrings are severed, he is like a fish out of water, unable to make waves anymore.
Then Zhao Ya stepped on Li De's chest, and with skillful movements and superb techniques, he took away everything on his body.
There was one thing among them that Zhao Ya noticed was extraordinary as soon as he got it.
This is a purse, small and exquisite, but Zhao Ya doesn't think that someone like Li De would wear something useless.
Sure enough, when you open it, you will find a round bead inside, all orange and yellow. It doesn't seem that strange at first glance, but if you look carefully, you will find it.
The beads have many tiny holes and exude a cool mint-like smell.
Zhao Ya was very interested, picked it up and asked, "What is this?"
Reed kept silent, his eyes filled with resentment.
"Haha, actually I can guess it even without you telling me. This should be an antidote bead."
"Is the antidote powder inside? What is it made of?"
Reed sneered, "Do you think I would say..."
Then he saw an incredible scene.
Zhao Ya rubbed the bead with his fingers, then put it to his nose and smelled it carefully. This was not enough, and he even put it in his mouth to taste it later.
Reed was simply stunned.
Is this guy so brave?
Although it is an antidote bead, if he tastes it casually, isn't he afraid of being poisoned?
Little did he know that as his cultivation deepened, Zhao Ya's talent in the five internal organs became more and more powerful.
The liver's invulnerability makes him fearless of poisons in the world.
So tasting poison is just a routine operation for Zhao Ya.
"Green Golden Grass, Xiwang Sand, Turtle Fruit Seeds, and Nine-Refined Red Rosewood. Am I right?"
Reed couldn't believe his ears.
Can you tell almost everything about the medicinal materials contained in it after just one taste?
What kind of incredible skill is this?
