Chapter 146 Assassination Success (1/2)

"Is this right here?"

Li Yan walked into a somewhat cramped alley.

The width of the alley can only accommodate about the size of a carriage. The spacious alleys seen along the way with Li Yan are simply incomparable.

However, there are a lot of people here, mostly people who live nearby.

Because the shops in this alley sell all kinds of things at a cheaper price than other places.

Living in Nanshan City is not easy.

Saving as little as possible is the survival principle of most people in this city.

Li Yan's clothes made of good materials seemed a bit out of place here.

Coupled with his own warrior temperament, he stands out among this crowd of mostly untrained people.

This resulted in him attracting the attention of many people as soon as he entered the alley.

Some people stared at his money bag, while others stared at his clothes. Others were staring at his face.

"Hey, where is this handsome young man from? Do you want to come in and sit for a while?"

A woman with scantily clad clothes and a somewhat attractive appearance was sitting at the half-open door, waving a pink handkerchief at Li Yan.

As long as you are not a young girl, you can know what this woman does.

There was no look of disdain on Li Yan's face. Instead, he actually came to this woman under the other party's greeting.

This made the woman a little confused. She was just giving it a try. If Li Yan refused, she would not recruit him a second time.

People at the lower levels are the most observant, and Li Yan is obviously not in the same class as them, so she doesn't dare to be too presumptuous.

After being stunned, she immediately reacted, with a look of joy on her face, and stepped forward to lead Li Yan into the house.

At this time, she was already thinking about how to serve this man well and get more money.

As for some of her colleagues next to her, they even looked envious and jealous.

The regret in my heart, if I had known earlier, I would have recruited him, anyway, I wouldn’t have lost a piece of meat.

"Let go."

Li Yan shouted low, causing the woman in front of him to turn pale, and quickly retracted the hand that had just grabbed Li Yan's arm.

The originally unattractive faces of those colleagues around him who were originally envious and jealous suddenly looked better.

There was even more excitement in his eyes.

However, they were afraid they would be disappointed.

"Take me to a shop called [I have a shop], you should know it."

Li Yan asked looking at the woman in front of him.

"I know, I know."

The woman stuttered in reply. It was obvious that she was already a little afraid of Li Yan at this time.

"Then take me there."

The woman did not dare to resist, closed the half-open door, and led the way obediently.

This made everyone who had not seen the excitement feel a little disappointed.

There was no words along the way, and after walking for about a cup of tea, deep in the alley, Li Yan saw the shop called "I Have a Shop".

It gave Li Yan a very ordinary feeling, no different from the surrounding shops.

Maybe the only difference is its name.

If it weren't for the information about [Baixiao Pavilion], Li Yan would never have imagined that such an ordinary store could contain poison that could kill an innate master.

"These are five gold leaves. Hide them. If someone discovers them, I don't need to tell you what will happen to you."

Li Yan took a step forward and quickly stuffed five gold leaves into the woman's hand.

"This is your reward for showing me the way."

"Let's go."

After saying that, Li Yan walked into [I Have a Shop], a shop with a strange name.

Men seem to have the idea of ​​persuading others to do good, and Li Yan is no exception.

Li Yan didn't want to care about whether the woman would continue to work in her old profession after receiving the money or find an opportunity to become a good person.

Since coming to this world, as his cultivation gradually improved, he felt more and more like he was doing whatever he wanted.

The woman stood blankly for a while before she woke up and quickly stuffed the five gold leaves in her hand into herself.

When she went back, she kept pretending to be calm and even a little angry.

"I'm back. Did that man like to play outside, so he called you out?"

The colleague joked.

"Stop talking, that's just a stingy guy. I showed him the way, and he sent me away without giving him a penny."

"If I had known, I wouldn't have screamed that way, but it would have been a huge loss for me. It has simply delayed my business."

The woman was cursing and walking towards her house.

Hearing this, the other women laughed happily.

After she opened the door, she did not close it immediately. Instead, she kept the door ajar as usual.

And it wasn't until she arrived at the hut where she usually receives guests that she jumped up with joy.

She smiled happily, but in order to prevent others from suspecting, she always covered her mouth with the quilt during the process.

After all, the house she lives in doesn't have much sound insulation.

However, she cried while smiling, and she didn't know why she was crying.

At this moment, she looked at her small room, looking at herself blurred in the bronze mirror, and tears couldn't stop flowing down.

"Xiaoyan, we have a guest, but you haven't come out yet."

"He's your regular customer."

Suddenly, someone shouted outside.

"Coming, coming."

Xiaoyan hid the gold leaf in a hidden place, wiped her tears, and walked out.

"Xiaoyan, why are you crying?"

"Nothing, I just bumped into something and it hurts."

"You came here so early today."

"Isn't it my day off today? I just wanted to come early to take care of your business. You don't know how much I miss you."

Xiaoyan was chatting with a familiar customer, but her eyes couldn't stop wandering, and finally looked at the narrow sky.

Her sight turned to Li Yan.

When Li Yan entered the house, he found that there was no one in the store, so he shouted: "Is the boss here?"

No one responded.

"The boss is..."

"What are you arguing about? Can't you see I'm sleeping?"

A figure stood up from the pile of debris and looked at Li Yan with a bad face.

"I really didn't see it."

Li Yan looked at the old man in front of him calmly and stated.

This is an unkempt old man, and a red rosacea is his biggest feature.

The smell of alcohol and the scattered wine jars at his feet show that he is an old drunkard.

"You..."

The old man has a bad temper and wants to curse at Li Yan when he points at him.

However, Li Yan interrupted the spell in time.

"I came here to find [Half-step Fall], [One Breath of Extinction] and [Three Sounds of Extinction]. Do you have any here?"

Li Yan was very direct.

He didn't want to waste time, as they would have to gather back later.

"No."

The old man whose spell was interrupted was angry and didn't hear Li Yan's words clearly, so he replied directly.

"I thought these banknotes could be bought, but it's a pity."

Li Yan took out a stack of banknotes from his arms, waved them in front of the old man for a few times, and then put them back in his arms.

Then, he walked back without looking back.

When he walked out of the door, he happened to see Xiaoyan's back leaving.

At this time, an anxious shout came from behind: "Little brother, don't go, don't go."

Li Yan stopped immediately.

"Oh, do you want to sell it?"

The reason why Li Yan did this was completely according to the strategy on [Bai Xiao Pavilion].

The guide on [Bai Xiao Pavilion] said that this person loves money and alcohol. If you have a lot of money or top-quality wine, you will have the opportunity to buy the three poisons from this person.

Li Yan didn't have time to prepare top-quality wine, but he did have some money, but he didn't know if it was enough.

"Not enough, I can only borrow some more from others."

Li Yan thought as he looked at the old man's smiling face.

"It can be sold, of course, but I don't know if the silver notes in your hand are enough."

The old man no longer had the decadent feeling before.

His eyes narrowed, and a shrewd temperament suddenly emerged from him.

"I only have this much. If it's enough, give it to me. If not, I'll come back next time."

window._taboola = window._taboola || ; _taboola.push({ mode: 'thumbs-feed-01', container: 'taboola-below-article-thumbnail---300x250', placement: 'Below article thumbnail - 300x250', target_type: 'mix' });

Li Yan didn't want to bargain, or it could be said that the price of this thing couldn't be negotiated.

As for robbing, Li Yan didn't think of it.

The strategy on [Bai Xiao Pavilion] said that it was not recommended to rob by force, and Li Yan didn't want to take the risk.

The old man took the stack of banknotes, just shook it, and then shook his head in disappointment.

"Not enough, even the worst [Three Sounds of Extinction] is a little short."

In the end, he heard the news he didn't want to hear.

"Do I really have to raise money to buy more?"

"It's too troublesome, and it will increase the chance of being exposed."

Thinking of this, Li Yan gritted his teeth and took out five white spirit beads from his pocket. The five inferior spirit beads were all less than one inch in diameter.

I don't know how Li Hong got the spirit beads. Anyway, Li Yan's clone in Jin Mansion has been in Jin Mansion for several months and has not found a way to get spirit beads.

"Is it enough to add these?"

Inferior spirit beads are worth one thousand taels per catty. The actual price is even more exaggerated, because many people don't have channels to buy them. This leads to the fact that once some spirit beads appear in the black market, they are often overpriced several times.

The density of spirit beads is high. Generally, an inferior spirit bead can weigh about one catty.

After all, less than one inch is already very small. Smaller spirit beads will not be circulated on the market after being dug out. They will be used as fertilizers for cultivating spiritual medicines.

In other words, if the five spirit beads in Li Yan's hand are sold well, they can even be sold at a sky-high price of 20,000 taels.

"Oh, a spirit bead!"

When the old man saw the spirit bead, his eyes lit up, and he grabbed it.

That instantaneous action made Li Yan completely unable to react.

"So fast, it turns out that those who can do this kind of business are not simple people."

Li Yan wiped the cold sweat in his heart.

"Yes, it is indeed a spirit bead. Although it is inferior, it is much better than silver."

"Well, the old man will not take advantage of you. You can buy two of the three poisons, or buy the best one."

"Which way do you choose."

The old man held the spirit bead tightly in his hand, stared at Li Yan, and asked kindly.

Obviously, it seems that even if Li Yan wants to get the Lingzhu back, it won't be that easy.

However, Li Yan had no intention of coming back, although he was a little reluctant to leave. After all, these five spirit beads were only in his body, and they would be gone after not more than a day.

However, as long as his plan is completed and he can return to the royal city, he can still get some spiritual beads based on his status.

The most important thing is to get the innate skills.

The current body is almost ready to contain the third internal organ.

On his side, he can't hold back the main body.

"If you want to buy it, buy the best one, and give me your best poison."

Li Yan gritted his teeth and chose the best poison.

"good."

The business was done, and the old man was also happy. He grinned at Li Yan with big yellow teeth.

Then, the old man took out a fist-sized jade bottle from nowhere.

He ran to the back again, carrying a cage, and walked out.

"What's inside this bottle is [half-step pour]. As the name suggests, as long as you put a little bit on it, it will be poured half-step."

"Because people die too quickly, sometimes it will cause the zhenqi in the person's body to explode, causing the person's bones to explode."

"So, be careful when using it."

"If you are dealing with acquired warriors, you don't have to worry about this, but from the look of you, it doesn't look like you are going to use this thing to deal with acquired warriors."

Li Yan didn't show any expression in this regard, but looked straight at the jade bottle in the old man's hand.

"By the way, this [Half-Step Pour] also has another feature, that is, although it is colorless, it has a faint aroma. When using it, be careful not to be smelled by the user."

Li Yan frowned slightly when he heard this.

"What's the fragrance? Can I smell it?"

"Of course you can. [Half-Step Pour] will only be effective if it is taken orally or enters the human body with the blood. If you smell it, there is no problem."

As he said that, the old man opened the [Half-Step Down], swung it a foot in front of Li Yan, and then immediately capped the bottle.

Sure enough, Li Yan smelled a faint aroma. Although it was weak, an innate warrior's sense of smell would definitely be able to smell it.

"Like the aroma of some kind of fruit."

This thought flashed past and was successfully captured by Li Yan.

As a result, his originally frowned brows quickly relaxed.

Here, the old man hasn't finished speaking yet.

"In this cage, there is a strange animal rat, and its physique is no worse than that of ordinary people."

"We can use this alien rat to verify this [half-step fall]."

Obviously, this was telling Li Yan that what he was selling was not fake.

After speaking, the old man lifted the black cloth on the cage, and a mouse with long arms and blood-red eyes appeared in front of Li Yan.

Suddenly seeing the light, the alien rat became violent and ran around in the cage.

But no matter how violent it was, it still couldn't escape. Even in the old man's hands, the cage didn't sway at all.

Li Yan stepped forward, stretched out two fingers across the gap in the cage, and pinched the mouse's head tightly.

"Yes, it is indeed an alien rat."

After waiting for Li Yan's confirmation, the old man began to conduct experiments.

The old man took out a needle, carefully inserted it into the jade bottle, tapped it gently, and then put the needle into a porcelain bowl that had been prepared long ago and filled with half a bowl of water.

Not all of the large bowl of water was used, but less than one-tenth was used for the animals and rats to drink.

After the alien rat drank it, Li Yan planned to count the seconds for it, but who knew, it would not be used at all.

You'll die after drinking it.

"Damn, it's really poisonous, I like it."

Li Yan looked at the jade bottle in the old man's hand with bright eyes.

After that, Li Yan took the jade bottle from the old man and left without looking back.

On the other hand, the old man looked at Li Yan flying across the wall, and then turned around after walking far away.

"We have to change places again. This kid is not a good guy at first glance. With that [half-step fall], I am afraid that a group of innate warriors will die in Nanshan City, and I can't let them find him."

"Change your identity and go to other cities."

"[Baixiao Pavilion] is really good. I take the initiative to spread my information, and they can help me find customers as soon as possible. It's really a good organization."

By the end, the voice had turned into a pleasant female voice.

And when he turned around, the old man with a rosy nose had turned into a young girl in her twenties.

"This looks fine, let's go."

Taking out a very smooth polished bronze mirror, the girl looked at herself in the bronze mirror with a very satisfied expression.

Then, he went back and changed into a girl's clothes, then disappeared directly from the place without a trace.

Most of the things in the store were not taken away.

On this side, Li Yan and his subordinates gathered together.

"Have you bought Chunyuan Guo?"

Li Yan asked.

Chunyuan Guo is a fruit that bears fruit in spring. Li Yan ate it once when he was training in the Siheyuan in Linshan City.

"No."

The subordinates looked at each other, a little confused, and then shook their heads.

"Why don't you hurry up and buy it? I just remembered that some of those gentlemen want to take a bite of the Chunyuan fruit. If their request is not met, I can't stand it if they cause trouble."

Li Yan found a random reason.

And the masters he mentioned naturally refer to the group of surviving messengers.

So, what he said was actually not wrong, because he was also one of those masters, and he really needed this Chunyuan fruit.

Soon, Li Yan's men bought a basket of Chunyuan fruit.

Everyone fought back to the mansion.

An hour later, it was noon time, and it was time for lunch.

One by one, food boxes were delivered to the courtyard where Li Yan and other messengers lived.

"Are there any fruits today? Not bad, you are thoughtful."

"Hey, Chunyuan fruit, such an ordinary fruit, if it were in the past, I wouldn't even look at it."

"Hey, it's good to have something to eat. I'm afraid that one day, our Shannan Dao master will not even give us a bite of food and drive us out."

"Shut up, is this something you can say?"

"Why can't I say it, I..."

"Well..."

An envoy was eating Chunyuan fruit, and then fell directly to the ground.

Before others could react, another one fell down.

Then the third, fourth, and fifth person exploded.

The loud noise resounded throughout the Daoist Mansion.

At this time, the clone dressed as Li Hong had already left the Daoist Mansion with the entry and exit token.

At that time, as long as he hid in the crowd and changed his face and figure, no one would be able to find him.
