Chapter 307: The Secret of the 4th Realm Guardian and the Divine Wandering (3)
"and then?"
After listening to this, Wen Yanzhao asked without raising his eyelids.
Nangong Chunshui adjusted the silver hair on his forehead and said casually:
"And then? Then comes the serious matter I want to tell you!"
"Soon, I will have to bid farewell to this world I've been reluctant to leave and go guard the northern border for my master."
He was Su Baiyi's disciple, so he naturally knew the dangers of the Four Realms.
Immortals from outside the domain would appear from time to time. In order to resist the invasion of immortals from outside the domain, even Li Changsheng, who had reached the peak of the Profound Realm of the God of Travel, had to try his best, otherwise he might be besieged and killed by those damn immortals at any time!
Upon hearing this, Wen Yanzhao frowned. He remembered that there was such a saying in the original story of the young white horse.
When he was in Tang Sect, Nangong Chunshui borrowed the power of Wen Yanzhao to remove the Dachun Power.
Shensi Wanli said goodbye to Mo Yi for the last time, perhaps not because he would suffer from old age, sickness and death after dispersing the Dachun Gong, but also because he had to go to guard the northern border and might die at any time.
During the conversation with Mo Yi, he mentioned that if his disciples found Mo Yi in the future, he would also invite them to have a glass of wine.
The deeper meaning of these words is probably to allow Mo Yi to help his apprentice in the future, and then entrust the apprentice's future to Mo Yi.
But this is not the crux of the problem. The Mo family, Su family and other noble families that guard the four borders each have a lifespan of hundreds of years. Even if Nangong Chunshui has given up the Dachun skill, if he goes to guard the northern border, he will naturally have such a lifespan.
Then there is only one possibility, the speed of time flow in the Four Realms is different from that in the Central Plains.
However, these were just Wen Yanzhao's guesses. He did not say them out loud, but listened quietly.
Nangong Chunshui glanced at Wen Yanzhao and saw that he looked calm and composed before continuing:
"So I should be enjoying myself in this world for a while, and then I'll go to Kunlun in the northern border. If the world becomes what you want by then, you can come find me!
Of course, if you also want to accompany me to guard the northern border, that would be great!"
After saying this, Nangong Chunshui's figure transformed into thousands of shattered golden lights and dissipated in the tent, leaving only Wen Yanzhao who was deep in thought and silent.
"Tsk, why should I help them protect the four borders? And they won't give me any benefits!"
Wen Yanzhao muttered inwardly, then took out a handful of cobalt blue powder from his bosom and sprinkled it into the big cauldron.
In an instant, the sound of thousands of insects biting and crawling in the cauldron became clearer and clearer, making people break out in cold sweat on the back of their spines.
However, this sound was like the sound of nature to Wen Yanzhao's ears, and it sounded extremely pleasant.
Nangong Chunshui's consciousness left her body tonight and came to talk to him, but it didn't surprise him at all.
This was something he had expected a long time ago, but the old man Nangong Chunshui was still keeping it to himself. He hoped to use this to delay Wen Yanzhao's plan to overthrow the Beili Dynasty.
However, all of this was completely refuted by Wen Yanzhao's verbal attack.
Even Nangong Chunshui had to admit that by the time of Xiao Chongjing's generation, the grace of a gentleman had indeed dried up.
Even if Xiao Chongjing had ten more outstanding princes like Xiao Ruofeng, it would be difficult to change the current situation of the Beili Dynasty which is rotten to the core!
Wen Yanzhao tiptoed out of the tent and came to the Gui-shaped alchemy room where Captain Lou was.
"Young Master Wen!"
Lou Guangmou, who was directing the soldiers to pour the medicine, saw Wen Yanzhao enter the medicine room and saluted him with his hands clasped together.
"Captain Lou, there's no need to be so polite. Are the three medicine rooms, Geng, Xin, and Ren, ready?"
"In reply to Master Xiao Wen, as you instructed, the medicine, shackles, and chains are all ready. We're just waiting for your order to throw those bastards guarding the prison into the medicine pool!"
As Lou Guangmou spoke, a glimmer of anticipation appeared in his eyes.
The prison was filled with fugitives and bandits captured by Marquis Zhenxi and Baili Chengfeng from several southwestern states and counties. They usually committed murder, arson and all kinds of evil deeds.
It is definitely a pleasure to see with your own eyes these bastards suffer and be turned into medicine men by Wen Yanzhao.
Lou Guangmou is an honest soldier who has followed Baili Luochen for seventeen years. He has been deeply influenced by the old marquis and is a man who hates evil.
That's why he was so looking forward to seeing the thrilling scene of those beasts jumping into the medicine pool.
"Once this medicine room is ready, go capture them from the prison and bring them here. Put 120 people into each medicine room first, for a total of three rounds. If anyone dies suddenly during the process, replace them with new ones!"
"Remember, you must absolutely ensure the right ratio of the liquid medicine and the right temperature for the fumigation. If there's too much or too little, or if it's too cold or too hot, all these thousand-plus embryos will be wasted!"
Wen Yanzhao gave instructions to Lou Guangmou in a serious tone as he looked at the soldiers who were mixing the medicine.
Lou Guangmou straightened his body and said loudly:
"Please rest assured, Master Xiao Wen. I, Old Lou, will definitely not let you down!"
Wen Yanzhao gave Lou Guangmou a trusting look and turned to leave the Guizihao Pharmacy.
It was already past the hour of You and the sky was already dark.
The entire West Camp began to make medicine in an orderly manner, and teams of prisoners were escorted from the Shouzhuo Prison to various medicine rooms by soldiers.
Soon, the prisoners' heart-wrenching howls could be heard from the four medicine rooms: Geng, Xin, Ren and Gui.
Wen Yanzhao knew that this group of medicine men had started to perform medicinal bath fumigation.
He ignored the screams that came from his ears and walked back to the tent where the big tripod was built.
The noise of the poisonous insects in the cauldron had become much quieter, like the rustling of rain in a late autumn night.
Wen Yanzhao waved his sleeves, and immediately, small snakes about half a foot long and as thick as four chopsticks, in red, ochre, blue, and green, emerged, wrapping themselves around Wen Yanzhao's arms and spitting out scarlet tongues.
These four colored snakes are called red snake, split-headed pit viper, long-striped coral and the most well-known bamboo leaf green snake.
The direct descendants of the Wen family would keep these four kinds of venomous snakes with them. Although these four slender snakes looked small, they were breeds selected and bred by the Wen family for hundreds of years.
Although its size is only one-fifth of the original species of venomous snake, its venom is many times stronger.
This is all thanks to Wenhujiu's "poison-feeding-poison method", which feeds the larvae of killer bees, wolf-faced spiders, hourglass spiders and golden scorpions to the little snakes as soon as they hatch.
When these little snakes gradually mature, the adults are crushed and the toxins of other poisons and minced meat are added to feed them.
After four or five years, these slender little snakes have accumulated toxins and become the most poisonous snakes in the world.
Because of long-term feeding, they have also developed basic spirituality and obey their owners' orders.
In this way, the Wen family kept the little snakes in their sleeves or underwear, so that it would be convenient for them to extract and refine the poison, and also for self-defense.
"My dears, now is the most critical moment. I have to ask you to add some ingredients to 'it'!"
Wen Yanzhao spoke to the four-colored little snake with some pity.
The four little snakes seemed to understand what he said and shook their bean-sized heads up and down.
Immediately, it transformed into four rays of light of different colors and rushed into the huge stone tripod.
After the four little snakes jumped into the cauldron, several heavy breathing sounds were heard from inside!
Wen Yanzhao held his chin and waited for half a minute. Then the four little snakes crawled out from the side of the tripod. They looked weak and slid down the stone tripod to the ground with their heads drooping.
Seeing the little snakes fall to the ground, Wen Yanzhao flashed over and held them in his hands like treasures, then used his true energy to protect the little snakes and stuffed them back into his sleeves.
"It's almost done!"
Wen Yanzhao's face remained calm, completely ignoring the beast-like panting coming from within the cauldron. He tapped his feet lightly, scurried to the edge of the stone cauldron, and peered inside...
Thousands of poisonous insects, snakes, and geckos of all kinds were densely packed together, and they actually formed a human figure inside the cauldron!
Wen Yanzhao took a deep breath with one hand and slapped the humanoid collection of poisonous insects and snakes—"Buzz!"
The group dispersed instantly, revealing a man's body. With the faint light of the fire in the tent, it could be vaguely distinguished that the owner of this body was actually one of the four great eunuchs of the imperial palace - Zhuo Luo!
