"Ding!"
"Congratulations to the host for summoning a character: Lai Yao 'er."
Character: Lai Yao 'er
Nickname: Divine Doctor.
Martial Arts: Unparalleled medical skills. Sleeve technique.
Realm: Middle-stage Higher Heaven.
Personality: (External) Arrogant and indifferent to everything. (Internal) Compassionate and benevolent.
Character Origin: "The God in Cloth"
"So it's Lai Yao 'er."
Shenlang had some impression of Lai Yao 'er. The TV series "The God in Cloth" was also a good Wuxia TV series. In it, Ge Shutian and Shen Xingnan's deceit and Li Buyi's chivalrous heart were all quite attractive.
"Buzz!" A white light broke through the fog, and Lai Yao 'er's image also slowly disappeared from the big screen.
"This summoning consumed 300 Slaughter Points. You have 200 Slaughter Points left."
The system reminded him mechanically after summoning Lai Yao 'er.
"Let's keep 200 Slaughter Points for now."
Shenlang exited the system space. Only a moment had passed in the outside world.
.....
At the same time, just as the white light broke through the fog of the system, in an unknown valley in Yunzhou, a white-haired man with a medicine basket on his back was squatting on the ground and coughing non-stop. The man's face was delicate and he was wearing white clothes. In his hand was a medicinal herb.
The man slowly put down his hand that was covering his mouth. Looking at the blood on his palm, he smiled bitterly.
"Sigh, damn the heavens. Is it true that the heavens are jealous of my handsomeness?"
Just as the man finished complaining and was about to get up, a strong wind suddenly blew in the valley. Sand and stones flew everywhere, and the man could not even open his eyes.
A white light streaked across the sky like a shooting star and shot straight into the man's forehead.
"Boom!"
The man felt as if countless unfamiliar memories had rushed into his mind. As the memories emerged, the man's aura also rose.
"Bang!"
The man's surroundings were instantly cleared, and bits of grass flew everywhere. He slowly opened his eyes and scanned his surroundings. He muttered, "Is this the Zhenwu Continent?"
He raised his head and looked into the distance.
"I can sense the Young Master."
.....
A day later, Shenlang and the rest arrived at the Poison City near the Lifeless Mountain Range.
Poison City was specially built for the Lifeless Mountain Range. Every year, people would come to the Lifeless Mountain Range to collect poisonous seeds and bring them back to refine poison.
Most of the people in Poison City were poison masters. Poison was something that many people in the martial arts world loved. Sometimes, a small bottle of poison could turn the tide of a battle, so whether it was the righteous path or the demonic path, they would always carry some with them.
Shen Lang and the others were dressed in bright clothes. They attracted countless gazes as soon as they entered the city. However, Shen Lang and the others were not ordinary people. They turned a blind eye to the scrutinizing and malicious gazes around them.
Those who could come to Poison City were basically poison masters, and those who liked to refine poisons were definitely not good people. Shen Lang and the others' Gale Colts were priceless, each worth over ten thousand taels of silver. Add to that the bright clothes on Shen Lang and the others, and the crowd could tell at a glance that Shen Lang and the others were definitely people of status.
Poison City was not under the control of the imperial court, and the court couldn't do anything about it. The court had sent people to manage the city in the past, but those people either mysteriously disappeared or died of poison. The court knew that it was definitely the doing of the martial arts families in Poison City. However, there was no other way. The martial arts families in Poison City were supported by one of the Six Evils, the Blood Demon Sect.
If they wanted to touch the martial arts families, they would have to go against the Blood Demon Sect. The Blood Demon Sect was a group of perverted people who would massacre cities at the slightest provocation. The court couldn't guarantee that the Blood Demon Sect wouldn't lay their hands on ordinary people if they went up against them.
If things got out of hand, there might be people who would revolt.
This wasn't an exaggeration. The people of the Zhenwu Continent were valiant. Once there was an extreme action, the commoners would cause trouble. At that time, it would definitely be a headache for the Qianwu Empire.
The imperial power in this world wasn't as important as in the twenty-first century. The Qianwu Empire could be considered an empire or a power. It was just that its form of existence was different from those sects and martial arts families.
Shen Lang and the others found a restaurant that looked pretty good and walked in.
"Waiter, bring out your good wine and dishes."
One of the three people Zhao Qi had brought with him said.
"Alright, please wait a moment, dear guests."
A shout rang out. Then, a person with a cloth draped over his shoulder and a teapot in his hand walked over.
The waiter wiped the table with the cloth, then placed the teapot on the table and said, "Dear guests, please wait a moment. The wine and dishes will be served soon."
Gao Jianli walked forward and filled Shen Lang's cup with tea.
Shen Lang picked up the teacup and took a whiff. He frowned and said, "What tea is this? Why does it have a strange smell? "
Zhao Qi chuckled and explained, "Shen Gongzi, the things in Poison City are like this. Although the poisonous fog of the Lifeless Mountain Range hasn't spread here, the things stored in Poison City are more or less different. Many of the food will go bad. That's why you're smelling a strange smell."
"Then how do the people in this city survive? After a long time, won't the poison seep into their lungs and cause them to die an unnatural death? "
Shen Lang asked doubtfully.
Zhao Qi knew that Shen Lang hadn't left Jiang City and didn't know about the situation in the Zhenwu Continent. He patiently explained, "Shen Gongzi, you don't know about this. The reason why Poison City is called Poison City isn't entirely because of the Lifeless Mountain Range.
You know that there are martial arts families in Poison City, right? "
Shen Lang nodded. On the way here, he had also briefly learned about Poison City. Poison City was divided into seven forces. There were gangs and families. The seven families relied on the poison produced by Poison City to develop well.
Among them, the first force, the Poison Gang, was qualified to challenge the first-rate forces in Yun Province.
"The seven forces in Poison City distribute a detoxification pill to the people every year. Not only can the pill cure the poison in their bodies, it can also indirectly help them train their physique. Every citizen in Poison City is courageous and powerful. Although they don't practice martial arts, they are still much stronger than most citizens in the Eastern Region.
Therefore, the citizens of Poison City are very supportive of the seven forces. Because Poison City is a famous poison producer in the Eastern Region, it's given the name Poison City. "
"Then, Lord Commander, do you know what the detoxification pills of the seven forces are?"
Shen Lang asked.
"I don't know about that. The imperial court has also sent people to investigate, but unfortunately, there wasn't any progress. We only know that the detoxification pills don't seem to be exclusive to the seven forces, but someone regularly gives them to them every year."
Zhao Qi shook his head.
Not long after, the waiter served the food and wine.
The dishes were quite sumptuous. There were fish and meat, and the dishes were also very exquisite.
Shen Lang picked up a piece of fish with his chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
"Bah!"
Shen Lang spat out the fish that had just entered his mouth.
Buzz!
As the weapon box opened and closed, a golden light flashed. The head of the waiter, who had just put down the last dish, flew high into the air.
"What's going on?"
The sudden turn of events caused the people who were still eating in the restaurant to jump up one after another.
