Chapter 17 Chapter 17

Beyond the realm of the Dragon Clan, there is no completely flat sea or land in Dongying Sea.

The boats made by the Dragon people are pretty reliable, at least they won't be damaged in a few minutes when encountering wind and waves.

Liang Shuang looked into the distance, there was nothing but the ocean.

Jiuyue City is a sect with the pinnacle of military power outside Daxiang, but its lord is a Daxiang native who lives in seclusion. Now the big and small affairs in the city are managed by white-clothed medicine girls.

That woman doesn't know martial arts, she just has excellent medicine and poison making skills.

This is all the information Liang Shuang has obtained from Luo Tao. The only difficulty is that the drug girl in white clothes is very vigilant and may not wait to see them, let alone... all of them are from Daxiang, and A mortal enemy of the Southern Barbarians - the Dragon Clan.

"Since she was kicked out by Nanman, that woman should hate Nanman very much, why would she avoid the Dragon Clan?" Gu Wei sighed, thinking again by himself.

While drinking tea, Liang Shuang looked at the undulating sea water, a little dizzy: "I don't think she hates the Dragon Clan, but rather, she is afraid of being hacked by the Dragon Clan."

"It makes sense." Han Yi and Xing Yuan nodded at the same time.

"Where did the grievances between the Dragon Clan and the Nanman come from?" Luo Tao turned her head. Indeed, she didn't even mention it in the episode, but with such a background, maybe it wasn't important to the episode in the previous game.

Xingyuan was inconvenient to move around in the boat, so she immediately took back the dragon horn: "Then... let's talk about this story."

The year when the Xiang Dynasty rose in troubled times, it almost crushed the Nanman.In July of the second year of Xiangshu, the leader of the Nanman went to the Xiang Dynasty to seek asylum. However, the ministers and emperors of the Xiang Dynasty did not want to see him, and took the opportunity to suppress the self-esteem of the Nanman.

Although the Southern barbarians came from a humble background and the tribal alliances were not powerful, they were also proud. Since other countries were so rude, there was no need to be cold-hearted, so they turned to the powerful forces in the Western Regions, Beiyunzhao, and Dongying Sea for help.Unfortunately, the first two failed, and only Dongying Hailong Palace was willing to assist.

"The southern barbarians were shocked when they saw the Dragon Clan. Although they were afraid of the power of the Dragon Clan, they also wanted to win over the Dragon Clan." Xing Yuan said.

Liang Shuang couldn't help thinking: "It's very contradictory, so the Southern barbarians broke the contract first?"

The power and uncertainty of the dragon clan made the southern barbarians jealous, and even more evil thoughts. They were always doubting themselves and losing their self-confidence.

"Firstly, they are afraid that the Dragon Clan will destroy them in the end, and secondly, they have a sense of inferiority when comparing the situation of the Dragon Clan to the barren land they live in," Luo Tao said.

"Well," Xing Yuan continued, "So, they have started to act, if they can't destroy the Dragon Clan, they will take something away."

"You mean the mine?" Han Yi said.

"There are 96 large and small mines in the deep seabed, and the infiltrated southern barbarians removed the gem crystals in 29 mines."

"Not too much." Gu Wei thought for a while.

Xing Yuan sneered: "Of course, this is only a small amount. The key is...some of the Dragon Clan people who intermarried with the Southern Barbarians even helped to smuggle ore."

"So, later all the Dragon Clan members escaped, including... your little uncle?" Luo Tao seemed to have forgotten something.

Liang Shuang sighed: "You forgot, his little uncle was kicked out by the elders."

Xingyuan shook her head: "So, the one who ran away was my grandfather. Grandpa escaped with the Nanman woman he fell in love with in his later years. Naturally, the elders couldn't keep my little uncle."

Liang Shuang thought about it for a while, and the Southern barbarians really did it on their own. No wonder the Daxiang court looked down on them, and even they didn’t have self-confidence.

After listening to it, Gu Wei didn't think about the inspiration this story gave him, but said nonsensically: "I was wondering, don't the Southern barbarians, especially women... have a lot of beauties?"

Liang Shuang knocked him on the head violently: "Unexpected? My disciple is a pervert?"

"Just out of curiosity."

Xingyuan smiled: "I saw those Nanban girls who didn't wear long gowns when I was a child. Their skin color is not white like that of the Dragon Clan, but their facial features are very delicate."

Liang Shuang remembered that people from the Western Regions were also like this. Their skin color was not fair but their facial features were very three-dimensional. In her modern world, they were collectively called West Asians: "If you see a girl from the Western Regions, you are called a fairy."

Han Yi took a sip of tea, the tea was cold, he refilled another cup: "I've seen it before, it's no different from Daxiang people."

Eh?Liang Shuang wondered, maybe the Western Regions of this world have not yet developed to the point where the West Asians have settled in?

Xing Yuan looked into the distance, her face full of joy: "Here we are, look, that is Nine Moon City."

There is a huge building hidden behind the sea fog, which cannot be seen clearly, but Liang Shuang is sure that it has at least fifty floors.

It wasn't until she got closer that she realized that the mountains on the island were just overlapping, and the buildings of Jiuyue City were scattered on each mountain.

The customs and customs of Dongyinghai are not bad, and even the building materials are similar to the Dragon Palace, but the buildings in Jiuyue City are not white and blue like the Dragon Palace, but red and black.

"Jiuyue City is really rich, and the Gorefiend Stone is used as a building." Xingyuan's eyes see through everything: "However, under the island where Jiuyue City is located, only the Gorefiend Stone is produced."

Liang Shuang was a little surprised, whether Jiuyue City was related to the Nanman Gu poison, after all, there was a powerful poison maker sitting here, and he was even a Nanman.

Suddenly the sound of the piano came to mind, Liang Shuang couldn't determine what it was, but felt that the music was surprisingly familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere.

Yes, that's the killer sound of the town bagpipe, but how could it be used for a certain sound?

Liang Shuang, Han Yi and Xing Yuan were not affected, but Luo Tao and Gu Wei were in trouble.

She walked forward: "Your Excellency, this junior is being rude. I suddenly visited Jiuyue City because I have important business to discuss."

As soon as she finished speaking, the woman's voice gradually rose: "Important matter? Hmph, Jiuyue City doesn't welcome you. Also, you should be the third highest martial artist in the Hunan Dynasty, right? To call yourself a junior, could it be that you are offending me."

Anyway, it's not the first time Liang Shuang has reported her family, so why not go all out, when she was about to tell the truth, Han Yi stopped her.

Xing Yuan immediately answered: "There is something urgent, otherwise, as the Dragon Emperor, I wouldn't come here in person. I'd better find you, the sworn enemy of the Dragon Clan."

The woman stopped playing, and Gu Wei and Luo Tao calmed down.

Luo Tao was in a trance: "Sure enough, you should practice martial arts more... The young master can't even summon the weapons used by this bad heroine..."

The drug girl in white descended from the high platform of Nine Moon City: "Dragon Emperor? Are you the new Little Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Clan?"

"Yes."

Seeing Xingyuan, she seemed relieved: "Fortunately, it's not your former emperor, otherwise, you must kill me."

"So confident, do you think I won't kill you?"

"I often hear that Kuan Ren, the new Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Clan, is a wise king. Everyone praises you so much. Naturally, I also respect you a little bit." After she finished speaking, she looked at Liang Shuang, who was guarding behind Han Yi.

Han Yi frowned, after all he knew that the drug girl in white had a grudge with Ji Liangjing in the early days, and he was afraid that she would regard Liang Shuang as Ji Liangjing.

But she looked at Liang Shuang at the side, Liang Shuang's eyes seemed to be crystal clear: "Are you not her?"

Liang Shuang came back to her senses: "Yes...so it shouldn't be a problem for me to call you senior."

"It's a strange thing in the world. No wonder. A few months ago, Bei Hechuan came to ask me what was going on with Ji Liangjing. I didn't know where Ji Liangjing was missing or even broke the contract. But now, I understand." To her, there seemed to be a smile under the white veil: "My name is Gu Wenxi, what about you?"

"Liang Shuang." She was still puzzled by that question, after all, she guessed that Gu Wenxi and Ji Liangjing must have had grievances before: "I have a question, Palace Master Ji and you before..."

"She pretended to be friends with me, but in the end she stole my medicine."

Right on!So Ji Liangjing has been the villain in this world from beginning to end. She stole the medicine to make Gu poison. The key point is, who is making poison for Ji Liangjing after stealing the medicine?
Gu Wenxi was at the forefront, and Jiuyue City had traps arranged. In addition to preventing intrusion, some traps existed as special tools, for example, the small room that Liang Shuang stepped into now.

Liang Shuang didn't realize at this time that they only need to pull the switch in this small room, and they will reach the highest peak of Jiuyue City.

Until she felt like she was going up, like taking an elevator in the real world, she patted her thigh!Isn't this the ancient version of the elevator? !

Gu Wenxi's voice was low and muddy: "Since it's time to check the Gu poison, then come directly to the Herbal Hall."

When we arrived at the Hall of Herbs, the dense fog covered it up. It was common to plant herbs in the courtyard in front of the hall, but nothing special.

Gu Wenxi took off her veil, a pair of slender phoenix eyes and a small bridge of nose under her eyes, flesh on her cheeks, and full lips, her sweet smile is somewhat charming to all beings.

Liang Shuang was dumbfounded. When will such a beautiful sister be in his pocket? !Thinking of this, she was speechless. This otome game can only accept men, not women.

Gu Wenxi wears a white gown all the year round, which seems to be consistent with the customs of Daxiang. After all, she has already declared herself that she is not from the Southern Barbarians.

She took a Blood Demon Stone and a bottle of medicine, and handed them to Liang Shuang: "Sister Shuang'er, please keep it safe. If you are not careful, you will be regarded as the culprit."

Liang Shuang sighed, after all, the big villain lived in her body now, no matter how she explained it, it would be useless, maybe in the end the Daxiang court had to pull her back.

Very depressed, she wanted to die at the beginning, but now she doesn't want to die, but all the plots belong to her.

"By the way, Sister Wenxi, are you sure Ji Liangjing arranged the poisonous poisons circulating in the world recently?" Liang Shuang asked.

"If there is no accident, it should be, and they are all the same, but..."

"But now Ji Liangjing is me, and I haven't done anything."

Gu Wenxi nodded: "If you don't do anything, and those ambitious people can't find your whereabouts, then they will act on their own."

Life is not easy, Liang Shuang sighed!It seems that if she is a villain in this world, she is not bad, and she is not bad!
In this way, everyone understood a little bit, taking advantage of the night, the five of them went to Liang Shuang's room together for the purpose of holding a "symposium".

"The development of the matter is very clear, it is Bei Hechuan." Luo Tao firmly believed.

Gu Wei also echoed, "Yes, I think so too."

Han Yi and Xing Yuan shook their heads at the same time: "Don't think about things too simply."

Liang Shuang also felt that perhaps Bei Hechuan was right in the dark, and he was just pushing the boat along with the flow.If Ji Liangjing is still the real Ji Liangjing, then he is pushing Ji Liangjing's boat; but if Ji Liangjing does nothing, then whose boat is he pushing?

"How about we sort out the information we got before?" Gu Wei asked.

Liang Shuang nodded quickly: "Good way."

"The Gu worms were first discovered in my house, when the King of the North Sea was there," Gu Wei said, "The matter of the prefect of Yancheng is definitely related to these things."

"Absolutely?" Han Yi chuckled lightly, "Is there any proof?"

Liang Shuang really wanted to be laughed to death by her innocent and deceitful little apprentice: "We can't say absolutely before everything is settled."

"At that time, no matter how the case was judged, it was on the King of the North Sea. It could only temporarily mean that the court used this matter to get rid of the King of the North Sea, but... His Majesty the Emperor came by himself."

Luo Tao suddenly understood: "His Majesty the Emperor came here in person, just to save the King of Beihai?"

Xingyuan nodded: "There is such a possibility."

"I only heard that the king of Beihai and the current emperor had a grudge, how could the emperor personally save the king of Beihai?" Liang Shuang was puzzled.

"Your Majesty doesn't want to investigate the matter of the prefect of Yancheng anymore, so we can only let it go." Gu Wei got to the point.

Liang Shuang suddenly thought: "Before leaving, Shen Yanxu asked me to help him find out the secrets of the world. I don't think there is any problem."

"He is the emperor, so there is nothing wrong with being so cautious and concerned about the overall situation." Han Yi said.

"Well, if the emperor is excluded from this matter, it is suspicious that the prefect of Yancheng died of Gu poison."

Gu Wei thought for a moment: "Yes, I'm sure that Gu poison is consistent with what we saw in the underground palace."

"By the way, the underground palace you mentioned shouldn't only hide one type of poison?" Xing Yuan asked.

"Look carefully, they are all the same kind. The manager of Cangxue Villa and the waiter probably discovered the underground palace and the Tibetan medicine room by accident." Liang Shuang said.

"Because I opened the poison out of curiosity, I was poisoned." Luo Tao frowned.

The crowd nodded.

"Xue, and Xue." Liang Shuang suddenly realized that there were two other people: "There is another person named Hao Changmeng."

Gu Wei nodded: "I have an impression."

Luo Tao said: "Xue has always lived in seclusion, even if she helped them hide the poison in the underground palace, she didn't even know what the poison was, let alone wonder what those people used it for."

Liang Shuang sighed: "Yes, he is an accomplice, but without knowing it."

"The poison hunters are really clever. How could anyone know that there is an underground palace in Beiyun Marsh, and no one would believe that the reclusive Beiyun Marsh expert Xue actually helped to hide poison." Luo Tao shook his head, feeling depressed.

"Because no one would know, the man in black killed two people who knew about the underground palace by the side of the road, and the waiter and shopkeeper couldn't stay either," Liang Shuang said.

But the few of them also know about this now, why didn't the mastermind behind the scenes take action against them?Is it to lure them into the game on purpose?Liang Shuang couldn't figure it out.

"By the way, you just said that the person named Hao Changmeng..." Han Yi asked.

"He didn't say anything, he just said that we will meet again." Liang Shuang replied.

Speaking of this, Liang Shuang suddenly realized, no wonder he said that he would meet again, he clearly didn't want to kill them, the insiders, to silence them first, and then catch them all at the end.

Luo Tao frowned: "Shuangshuang, do you know something?"

"That Hao Changmeng is definitely not a kind person."

 The name is useless!Occasionally I can get a nice name, let alone I will go to Yi Jiyuan to see if I can find inspiration for the name (╥_╥)
