Zhao Hai's body reeked of alcohol as he returned to the Saber Spirit Nation's Botanist Master's courtyard. Hu Chen was waiting for him in the living room. Upon seeing Zhao Hai come back, Hu Chen couldn't help but stare. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Crane Grass, where did you go to drink? Did you go to the Dark Soldier Kingdom? "
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "I did, I drank there. My goodness, their Five Poison Wine is really fragrant. However, it's a pity that I can't drink too much. Then those fellows dragged me to drink. It's a pity that I didn't drink the Five Poison Wine." As he said that, Zhao Hai sat down and poured himself a cup of tea before downing it in one gulp.
Hu Chen looked at Zhao Hai with a puzzled expression and said, "You're saying that you drank with those fellows from the Dark Soldier Kingdom? Is that true? Aren't those fellows difficult to get along with? So they aren't hostile to you? "
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "I don't think so. In any case, we're now friends, and we call each other brothers. Right, they weren't difficult to get along with. When I went there, I told them the truth. Then they invited me to drink the Five Poison Wine. After I drank three bowls, they warmed up to me and asked me why I went to visit them. I told them that I wanted to see if they wanted to be my enemy or my friend. If they were my enemy, then I wouldn't be polite. If they were my friend, then that would be great.
So when I saw that, I immediately invited them over. "Hu Chen stared blankly at Zhao Hai. He didn't know what to say. At this time, he seriously doubted Hu Xiang's words. What Zhao Hai was doing right now didn't seem like something that a person with experience would do.
Suddenly, Hu Chen thought of something. He looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Crane Grass, you just said that you drank the Five Poison Wine of the Dark Soldier Kingdom? Was there any poison in the wine? "
Zhao Hai looked at Hu Chen with a puzzled expression. Hu Chen was now looking at Zhao Hai with a nervous expression. Zhao Hai nodded and said, "There are poisonous plants, five kinds of poisonous plants."
Hu Chen's expression changed. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Do you feel any discomfort?"
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "No, that Five Poison Wine was really fragrant. I wanted to drink more, but they wouldn't give it to me no matter what. They said that you can only drink three bowls of Five Poison Wine a day. If you drink too much, it will be poisonous."
When Hu Chen heard Zhao Hai, he felt relieved. Then he nodded and said, "It seems like you passed. Crane Grass, I really don't know what to say about you. You saw that there was poison in the wine and you still dared to drink it. Don't do it again."
Zhao Hai looked at Hu Chen puzzledly and said, "What's wrong, Tenth Uncle? Do they really dare to poison me to death? "
Hu Chen snorted and said, "Of course they dare. Do you think that those fellows from the Dark Soldier Kingdom are easy to deal with? If they were really that easy to get along with, then they wouldn't be feared by everyone. The Plant Masters and Beast Spirits of the Dark Soldier Kingdom would invite people to drink Five Poison Wine. However, these two kinds of Five Poison Wine are different. The Plant Master's Five Poison Wine is made from five kinds of poisonous plants while the Beast Spirit's Five Poison Wine is made from five kinds of poisonous insects. The Plant Master's Five Poison Wine is divided into two kinds. One is the ordinary Five Poison Wine that doesn't contain any poison. Even if there's a little poison, the Plant Master's Five Poison Wine would be able to detoxify it. But the Five Poison Wine that contains poison is different. This kind of wine is generally used to test people. If you dare to drink it, it means that you trust them and are a person worth befriending. If you don't dare to drink it, then you aren't a person worth befriending.
After Hu Chen said this, he let out a long breath. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Not only that, the amount of Five Poison Wine used, the different poisons used, and so on will affect the quality of the wine. For example, some people wouldn't drink the wine in one gulp because they would be poisoned. Some people wouldn't swallow the poison in the wine because they would also be poisoned. Because of this, the Five Poison Wine of the Dark Soldier Empire's Five Poison Wine isn't very tasty."
Zhao Hai didn't think that there would be so many ways. He looked at Hu Chen and said, "Tenth Uncle, according to what you said, if the Dark Soldier Kingdom really wants to kill someone, then wouldn't it be very simple? As long as they do something during the test, then wouldn't the person be dead?"
Hu Chen shook his head and said, "No, the people of the Dark Soldier Kingdom have a special characteristic. During the test, they can cause trouble. But if you really want to make friends with them and don't have any defenses against them, then you're absolutely safe. Just like you, you don't have any defenses against them. You thought that they wouldn't dare to poison you, so you drank three bowls of wine in one gulp and swallowed the poison. In this case, you're absolutely safe."
Zhao Hai nodded. It turned out that he had shown his best side. No wonder Pan Wanjiang and the others were so enthusiastic about him. It was because he was very sincere from the beginning.
However, in Zhao Hai's opinion, Pan Wanjiang and the others' test was really abnormal. There weren't many people who could pass this test. No wonder Hu Chen told him to be careful of Pan Wanjiang and the others. These people were really temperamental.
Hu Chen looked at Zhao Hai and said, "But fortunately, it seems like those guys really don't have any hostility towards you. The people of the Dark Soldier Kingdom have a very special characteristic. Once they think that you can become their friend, then they won't easily betray you or sell you out unless you let them down first. They consider betraying their friends and selling out their friends as the greatest shame of their lives."
When Zhao Hai heard Hu Chen, his eyes couldn't help but light up. Then he said, "Does that mean that if I become friends with them, they wouldn't help me in this competition?" Hu Chen nodded. Zhao Hai's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Hu Chen nodded and said, "Right, that's what I mean."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "That's good. This matter has finally been resolved. One less enemy is always better than one more. Ah, I can't take it anymore. I drank too much wine. I'm going to sleep for a while."
Hu Chen looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Crane Grass, wait a moment. I still have something I want to ask you."
Zhao Hai, who was about to get up, stopped and looked at Hu Chen in confusion. Hu Chen looked at Zhao Hai and said in a low voice, "Xiangzi said that you went out on the night of the lost ginkgo tree? Does this matter have anything to do with you? "
Zhao Hai looked at Hu Chen and then looked around. After making sure that no one could hear him, he lowered his voice and said, "Yes, I was the one who took the ginkgo tree. However, the ginkgo tree has indeed been demonized."
When Hu Chen heard Zhao Hai, his eyes couldn't help but light up. Then he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "How did you do it?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Natural energy conversion. How else can I do it? Hehe, Tenth Uncle, you're looking down on my Soul Space."
Hu Chen looked at Zhao Hai and didn't know what to say. After a while, he let out a long sigh and said, "Don't mention it to anyone. Right, where's the ginkgo tree?"
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "I don't know. You should know that it's a demonized plant. Although I helped it, I also received a lot of benefits. Therefore, after it leveled up, it immediately left. It has lived for thousands of years and has seen many things. It knew that if the plant masters of the Sword Spirit Country found out that it had been demonized, they would certainly try to subdue it. It wouldn't stay there and wait for others to subdue it, so it ran away."
Hu Chen nodded and said, "That's good, there won't be any doubts about you. Remember, don't tell anyone about this, especially when you send a message to your family." Zhao Hai nodded, then he stood up and cupped his fist towards Hu Chen before turning around and leaving.
Hu Chen looked at Zhao's back and suddenly laughed. Then he muttered, "Good boy, you really have some skills. It seems like this competition will be interesting. I really want to see what the final result will be." Hu Chen looked at Zhao's back and suddenly laughed.
Not long after Hu Chen finished speaking, Hu Xiang came in from the outside. Just like Zhao Hai, he was also reeking of alcohol. When Hu Chen saw Hu Xiang's appearance, he couldn't help but have black lines appear on his forehead. He really didn't know what to say to this little brother of his.
Hu Xiang didn't care about how Hu Chen looked at him. He walked into the living room and sat down. Then he reclined on a chair and said, "Tenth Brother, it's done. I invited those guys from the Spear Spirit Country to drink. Looking at their appearance, it seems like they won't go against us this time. How about it? Not bad, right?"
Hu Chen looked at Zhao Hai, then he coldly snorted and said, "What a good-for-nothing. You still want to invite people to drink. Look at Crane Grass, he went to the Dark Soldier Empire. Those fellows from the Dark Soldier Empire called him brothers and even invited him to drink. What kind of ability is this?"
When Hu Xiang heard Hu Chen, he couldn't help but stare. Then his eyes turned round as he said, "Tenth Brother, are you serious? Those guys from the Dark Soldier Country really invited Crane Grass to drink? What kind of soup did Crane Grass give them? Why would they invite him to drink? "
Hu Chen coldly snorted and said, "This is Crane Grass's method. You should learn from him in the future. Really, if you want to make friends, you don't have to invite them. What a failure." After he said that, Hu Chen stood up, then he shook his head and slowly walked upstairs.
On the other hand, Hu Xiang looked as if he was struck by lightning. He was stunned on the spot. After a while, Hu Xiang reacted. He looked at the direction where Hu Chen disappeared and suddenly laughed. Of course, he knew that Hu Chen was just joking with him. However, he didn't expect that Hu Chen, who was always very serious, would joke around. It seems like Hu Chen was in a good mood.
It took Hu Xiang a while to calm down. Then he leaned on his chair and kept thinking about Hu Chen's words. He muttered, "If it's just because of the Dark Soldier Country, then Tenth Brother wouldn't be so happy. There must be something else. What is it? Right, Crane Grass. This matter must be related to Crane Grass. Crane Grass went to see the people from the Dark Soldier Country and then came back. Before that, I went to see the people from the Spear Spirit Country. Right, could it be that matter? Did Tenth Brother ask about Crane Grass? Did Crane Grass tell Tenth Brother? Moreover, it seems like this matter really has something to do with Crane Grass. Otherwise, Tenth Brother wouldn't be so happy. Good kid, you really have some skills. Hahaha. This time, the Sword Spirit Country will definitely suffer a loss. Too secretive, too secretive! "
