Longevity starts from strengthening internal organs

Chapter 381 A deal, heading to the beach
Kong Xiangdong chuckled, not hiding anything at all, and raised his hand to point to his head.

"The poison gas has entered the brain, causing some mental problems, but the problem is not serious, and he will not die for a while."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the wine table instantly became very strange.

Before Zhao Ya said anything, Yang Zhan and Jing Rou, who were sitting far away, both looked shocked.

Can this kind of thing be mentioned casually?

Especially Yang Zhan, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

If possible, he wished he had gone deaf just now.

After all, knowing this kind of secret will do you no good at all!
Jing Rou and Zhao Ya could just leave, but she still had to make a living in the small town.

Just when the two of them were stunned, Kong Xiangdong suddenly laughed.

"Okay, it's useless to say this. Come on, keep drinking!"

Kong Xiangdong seemed not to want to talk about this matter anymore, and instead greeted everyone.

Zhao Ya was also very knowledgeable and did not continue to ask further questions.

After all, everyone has their own past and secrets, and it is normal not to tell others.

But this did clear up a doubt.

That's why Kong Xiangdong, who looks elegant and easy-going, is known as a madman.

In fact, Zhao Ya noticed something was wrong the first time he saw Kong Xiangdong.

First of all, there is a black line between Kong Xiangdong's eyebrows running straight through the top of his head, and secondly, there is a hint of black energy in his eyes. This is not a good sign.

Kong Xiangdong's answer also supported Zhao Ya's guess.

It was precisely because he was infected with the poison that his temperament was moody, good and bad.

When he is good, he is gentle and elegant, like a scholar.

When he is bad, he has a bad temper and kills people easily.

As for who could make Kong Xiangdong, whose mastery of the poison path shocked even Zhao Ya, be infected with poison, it has nothing to do with Zhao Ya.

After all, they met by chance, and Zhao Ya didn't want to meddle in other people's business.

Soon, the banquet was over.

Kong Xiangdong was very drunk, but he was obviously in a good mood, so he said.

"Go, bring up all the good things we have collected over the past few years, and let these two friends who have come from afar open their eyes."

"Yes!"

The men took the order and left, and after a while they walked in carrying a dozen exquisite boxes.

Kong Xiangdong stood up unsteadily, walked to the boxes, and smiled at Zhao Ya and Jing Rou.

"My brothers spent all their efforts and even lost their lives to get these things. Several groups of people wanted to buy them before, but I was not willing to sell them! But today is different. Since this little brother is my fellow practitioner, he is considered to be half of the same disciple, so please keep an eye on me."

Saying that, he waved his hand.

These men all opened the lid of the box in their hands.

It was not as jewel-like as he imagined, and even after the lid was opened, Zhao Ya smelled a strong smell of sea.

Jing Rou couldn't sit still at this time, so she quickly got up and came to the box, checking them one by one.

I saw that the things contained in these boxes had different shapes, and some of them could be recognized at a glance.

For example, there is a short fire gun that is over thirty centimeters long, and its exquisite workmanship is second only to the one in Zhao Ya's hand.

But there are also some things that have no apparent purpose.

For example, a black box the size of a palm has a piece of the shell damaged, revealing the densely packed and stacked gears inside.

The exquisite workmanship of this thing is far beyond ordinary people's imagination, and it is even more complicated than the firearm in Zhao Ya's hand.

But it is precisely because of this that people can't figure out what this thing is used for.

But honestly speaking, the quality of these miraculous creations is indeed of the highest quality.

Jing Rou watched mesmerized.

Although he has always been obsessed with the research of gunpowder, after all, he is in the Machinery Sect, and he is naturally interested in these things full of mechanical beauty.

Zhao Ya's focus was not on the complexity of these miraculous creations.

In fact, the purpose of his coming here is not for these miraculous creations, but to find what he wants from them.

But after carefully examining it for a long time, Zhao Ya finally raised his head, his face full of disappointment.

Then Zhao Ya couldn't help but secretly laugh at his previous wishful thinking.

It's really ridiculous that I actually want to find traces of a familiar civilization in these things that come from the extremely mysterious Wuwang Sea.

how can that be!

Although these things also showed strong civilizational strength, especially the mechanical strength shown by some creations, it amazed Zhao Ya, who came from a world with advanced technology.

But after all, they are not the same category.

Except for firearms, which he was familiar with, even Zhao Ya couldn't tell what their functions were.

"What? Not satisfied?"

As if sensing Zhao Ya's disappointment, Kong Xiangdong raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with some confusion.

Zhao Ya shook his head, "No, it's just that I don't have what I want!"

Kong Xiangdong was thoughtful.

Jing Rou on the side also raised her head at this time.

Unlike Zhao Ya, he was very satisfied with the quality of this batch of miraculous creations.

But the buyer is the buyer of praise and blame, and of course he cannot show his true inner thoughts at this time.

On the contrary, I saw him frowning, shaking his head and saying: "Leader Kong, to be honest, these things are very good! But as my little brother said, there is not much we want."

"For example, this thing looks sophisticated and complicated, but firstly, it's hard to tell what it does, and secondly, it's very difficult to repair, and it won't be of much use if you buy it back. So the firecracker and the other two things are just fine."

Kong Xiangdong didn't say anything, just listened quietly.

It wasn't until Jing Rou finished speaking that he smiled slightly.

"So what you mean is..."

"If the price is right for this batch of goods, I can consider taking them all as ordered, but if not, there is nothing I can do." Jing Rou said calmly.

When bargaining, the best way is to first establish yourself in an invincible position.

For example, now, Jing Rou has the upper hand in negotiations.

He did not bid, but kicked the ball back to Kong Xiangdong at a suitable price.

In this way, one can advance, attack, retreat or defend, which can be described as cunning and calculating.

Zhao Ya couldn't help but be a little surprised.

He had always felt that Jing Rou was naive in her behavior sometimes.

In fact, not only him, but also Liang Xin'an and others from the Guan Sect also gave Zhao Ya this feeling.

This is also in line with the character design of the iron and steel engineering man from the Guan Zong!
But he didn't expect that during the bargaining period, Jing Rou would show off her sophistication.

Kong Xiangdong stopped talking after hearing this, and just slowly drank the tea in his cup, the alcohol on his face gradually receding.

Jing Rou pretended to be calm and waited, but in fact she was getting anxious inside.

He really wanted to take possession of these miraculous creations.

And what attracted him the most was the broken box.

Although she couldn't tell what its specific purpose was, the sophistication and complexity of this box deeply shocked Jing Rou.This is much more valuable than a firecracker.

But in order to keep the price down, he deliberately hid his true intentions and disparaged the box.

But now Kong Xiangdong's long silence made Jing Rou feel a little unsure.

Finally, just when he couldn't hold it any longer, Kong Xiangdong spoke.

"If anyone else had talked to me like that, I would have told them to get lost."

"But you are different, so I can give you a chance."

Speaking of this, Kong Xiangdong pointed at these miraculous creations in front of him.

"I can give you all these things for free."

As soon as these words came out, Jing Rou was dumbfounded.

Not because of the surprise.

On the contrary, Jing Rou's heart was full of uneasiness.

Because there must be evil when things go wrong, especially if you give such a huge benefit as you say, how can there be such a good thing in the world.

So there must be another plan for this hole heading east.

really.

Then Kong Xiangdong continued: "But this is conditional, and it requires the cooperation of this little brother Zhao!"

Speaking of this, Kong Xiangdong looked at Zhao Ya with bright eyes, with expectation in his eyes.

Zhao Ya looked calm, completely ignoring Jing Rou's crazy wink at him, and smiled slightly: "Oh? It has something to do with me, so let's talk about it!"

"Actually, it is very difficult to say that this is difficult, but it is also very simple to say that it is difficult. It is said to be difficult because if ordinary people want to do this, there is no life or death, but it is also extremely risky."

"It's simple because if you participate in this matter, it will be a success immediately."

Speaking of this, Kong Xiangdong's eyes gradually glowed red, and crazy hatred appeared on his face, as if he was recalling some unpleasant memories.

"The reason why I was infected with such poison that the poison gas entered my brain and turned into this kind of crazy and immortal ghost is all thanks to a powerful strange beast that lives on the shores of Wuwu Sea."

"Over the years, I have been thinking about eradicating this alien beast all the time to relieve the hatred in my heart. However, this alien beast is too strong. I cannot eradicate it with my own strength. Moreover, this alien beast is too strong. Beasts are naturally good at poison and very cunning.”

"Relying on human lives or siege by ordinary warriors will not help. Only people like me who have a deep study of poisonous paths can have an effect."

"Although the land outside of Huawai is vast, there are not many people who delve into poisonous ways, and the people who come to Wuwu Seaside are even rarer. So this matter has been put on hold until I met you today, and I knew that my The opportunity for revenge has arrived."

Speaking of this, Kong Xiangdong gradually became crazy and almost danced.

"You and I will work together to eradicate this beast and relieve the hatred in my heart."

After listening to Kong Xiangdong's words, Jing Rou regretted her bargaining just now.

If we had known this earlier, we might as well have just paid a high price to buy these goods.

But it was too late to regret it now.

Because Kong Xiangdong's condition was obviously abnormal.

If I change my words at this time, I will definitely anger him.

By that time, all previous efforts will be wasted, and it may even lead to greater danger.

While Jing Rou was full of confusion, Zhao Ya was not affected by Kong Xiangdong at all and simply shook his head.

"No, I don't want to."

"Why?" Kong Xiangdong was stunned, and then looked at Zhao Ya with a crazy face, his whole state becoming more and more dangerous.

In this state, Zhao Ya smiled.

"Because the price you gave is not enough."

"To be able to poison you like this and leave you helpless until now, this strange beast is obviously extremely powerful. If you want to ask me to help you deal with such a powerful opponent, this thing alone is not enough."

"This is easy to say. I can give you an additional 10 taels of gold. How about that?"

Upon hearing that Zhao Ya thought the price offered was not high enough, Kong Xiangdong immediately added an additional 10 taels of gold.

But Zhao Ya shook his head again, "When we reach the realm of you and me, money is just an external possession. You must know this very well."

"Then what do you want?"

"Actually, what I want is very simple. I'm very curious about how the medicine you administered in Yang Zhan's tavern works." Zhao Ya said lightly.

After hearing this, Kong Xiangdong's state immediately sobered up a lot.

He stared at Zhao Ya for a long time before finally letting out a long breath.

"Okay, I can tell you the trick."

"Deal!" Zhao Ya agreed immediately.

"But there is a prerequisite. You must help me eradicate that strange beast."

"I dare not say that I must make this promise, but I can promise to do my best and never hide anything."

"That's good. Although this beast is powerful, as long as you and I work together, it's not difficult to kill it."

The discussion was settled and the atmosphere immediately became lively again.

It was already dark outside at this time.

Yang Zhan went back to his tavern to take care of business.

After Kong Xiangdong and Zhao Ya agreed on the time to leave tomorrow, they wanted to hold a banquet, but Zhao Ya refused.

After leaving the brothel and returning to the hotel, Jing Rou said with a worried look on her face: "Xiao Ya, why don't we just give up on these things?"

"Why not?"

"That strange beast is so strong that it can do nothing to Kong Xiangdong, who has been here for many years. It even made him infected with poison. It is obviously not that easy to deal with. If you go there, what if you encounter danger?"

Zhao Ya smiled when he heard this, "Don't worry, Brother Jing, I have a sense of proportion. If the worst happens, I'll just run away. I won't really risk my life for Kong Xiangdong."

Hearing what Zhao Ya said, Jing Rou felt relieved.

Along the way, he had witnessed Zhao Ya's Qinggong strength with his own eyes, so he knew that if Zhao Ya wanted to leave, few people could stop him.

But what Jing Rou didn't know was that even if Kong Xiangdong didn't say anything about it, Zhao Ya would still have to go to Wuwanghai to investigate.

After all, the purpose of his trip was to see what secrets were hidden in this mysterious Wuwu Sea.

Therefore, Kong Xiangdong's proposal was exactly what Zhao Ya wanted.

Silent all night.

Early the next morning, just after dawn, Kong Xiangdong came to the hotel. After meeting Zhao Ya, he left the town and headed to Wuwanghai.

This town is said to be built on the seaside, but it is twenty miles away from the Wuwang Sea.

It’s not that we built it so far away on purpose, it’s just that there are too many dangers on the shores of Wuwanghai.

Not to mention anything else, just the strange beast that often picks up dried fish to eat at the beach is enough for an average person to drink a pot.

Therefore, for safety reasons, this town can only be built far away from the sea.

Only twenty miles away, for Zhao Ya and Kong Xiangdong, it was just a blink of an eye.

"Well, that's Wuwanghai!" Kong Xiangdong stood on a snow hill and raised his hand to point.

Zhao Ya looked in the direction he pointed, and then saw a scene that he would never forget.

It was as if a huge white curtain had been hung between the sky and the earth in the distance, blocking all sight.

Only the sound of the rushing waves and the black tide that washes up on the coast from time to time prove that this is indeed a seaside.
