The Three Kingdoms with extraordinary powers, gather money and grain to bring peace to the world

Chapter 55 Going to see Lai Gong
  Su An opened the letter. There was no official seal or signature on it, it was just an ordinary letter.

He smiled. It seemed that Magistrate Liu was also very cautious. He was afraid of being caught by others and deliberately left no trace.

"The letter has been received. I already understand the matter. I just received the news that the Lulongxian Temple Guard Army has been dispatched. I hope to make preparations as soon as possible."

"In the case of Guanyang Village, you can fight but not kill. Since you can unite the twelve villages to fight, you must have the means. I will come in person, but I don't want to see bloodshed happen, so please consider it carefully."

Seeing this, Su An thought about how this was possible. The two sides were confronting each other, and there would definitely be bloodshed in a back and forth.

What's more, this is still a struggle with religious power. A little carelessness will be the cause of the destruction of the religion.

Unless this evil fire is extinguished, Lulong Immortal Temple will not be able to stop it. The same thing applies to him.

"In addition, I would like to recommend a person to Village Chief Su, Lai Gong. This person is well versed in poison techniques and may be able to help you resolve this crisis."

"It's a coincidence. He happens to be near Yunshan these days. If you rely on this trust, maybe he can help you."

The letter ends here. There is a seal left at the right end of the letter, which is an irregular plum blossom. It must be a testimony to Lai Gong.

Su An frowned. He had heard of Lai Gong, but not that he knew medicine or poison. His ability to poison must be due to destiny.

The meaning of Liu Ba's letter was also very clear, which was to let Su An get some poison to stun the Skitarii, so that he could deal with the rest of the matter.

And judging from what he meant, he and Lai Gong should be old friends, or they have known each other for a long time and even had a long conversation.

This matter has a lot to do with it. If you are not one of our own, we will not involve others in advance, so Lai Gong should be a like-minded person.

As for Yunshan, it is not that far away from here. Most of the twelve villages are connected to Yunshan, and even Kuangfeng Village is included in Yunshan.

Finding Lai Gong is very simple. As long as Su An sends someone to ask, he will soon know where he is.

Judging from the meaning of the letter, Liu Ba was indeed on his side. As for how he would do it, Su An couldn't guess.

The letter didn't say anything clearly, it just pointed out the path of Lai Gong. Su An sent someone to find out Lai Gong's location and showed the letter to Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan recommended Liu Ba because he knew his character. He was not too surprised by what was said in the letter.

"I know Lai Gong, a famous person. I met him a few years ago. However, I have never heard of the fact that he can poison. He must be hiding his ability."

People who practice poison will naturally be ostracized by celebrities. After all, they belong to the heretic.

Hiding and tucking is a normal reaction, and Su An can understand it.

It's just that he didn't know what Liu Ba wanted to do when he pointed this way, let him fight but not kill, and let Lai Gong use poison to sneak attack. This layout was really puzzling.

Su An naturally asked the difficult problem that he couldn't figure out to his first adviser, Mr. Jiang Wan and Jiang Gongyan. Someone with such great ability is not in vain.

Su An believes that if Liu Ba's thoughts are not figured out, it will be difficult to cooperate in this matter, and there may even be hidden dangers of being passive.

"Sir, what do you think? You are familiar with Magistrate Liu, so you must be able to guess his thoughts."

Jiang Wan immediately made a hypothesis, put himself in Liu Ba's position, and conducted a detailed analysis with the goal of defeating the Lulong Immortal Temple.

After Su An heard this, he felt it made sense, but he didn't know whether it was Liu Ba or Jiang Wan who was insidious. He could think of such damaging tricks.

As expected, all the famous ministers and counselors in the Three Kingdoms world are not fuel-efficient lamps. Everyone has his own little ninety-nine.

Su An's reply was just chattering. It was said to be a compliment, but in reality it was a detriment.

After hearing too much, Jiang Wan couldn't stand it anymore, so he quickly stopped his tirade and said:
  "Don't boast yet. This matter is very risky for you. If it happens, everyone will be fine."

"If this thing doesn't work out, I think Magistrate Liu will let you take the blame."

Su An had already guessed this. In his letter to Liu Ba, he specifically hinted at this point. He wanted to use it as the sword to cut off the Lulong Immortal Temple.

He did this mainly because he was afraid that Liu Ba would not help. Without the mediation of the government or a third-party force, this matter would not end well.

"It's human nature. There are often people who make things difficult among acquaintances and relatives, not to mention major matters related to life and death, or the decline of one's own family. I can understand it."

Seeing that he was mentally prepared, Jiang Wan didn't say anything else. Taking a small risk to make a big gain is a risk in itself, not to mention it is a game involving interests.

Zhou Xiaosi came back from each village soon. He was lucky enough to find information about Lai Gong when he searched in the first village.

Currently, I am in Hongye Village and have not gone up the mountain to collect herbs. I happen to be resting at a farmer's house.

"Collecting medicine? He is not a doctor. What is he doing collecting medicine?"

Zhou Xiaosi didn't know either. He spread his hands and said, "I don't know. I heard from people in the village that he often goes to the mountains to collect herbs, sometimes for several days at a time."

Su An reacted instantly. Liu Ba said that he could use poison. It seemed that this was the problem.

The village was close to the corner, but not far away. Su An directly used the power of running and moved away from Guanyang Village at a very fast speed. After his realm has been improved, the power of the valve is enough to support him in squandering the power of sprinting. Moreover, the consumption of the destiny of sprinting is different from the consumption of magic powers.

In less than half an hour, others had already appeared in Hongye Village. It was his first time to come to this village, but the layout of the village entrance was not much different from that of Guanyang Village.

All the young people in Hongye Village were recruited to form a defense team. There were only a few elderly people at the entrance of the village. Su An asked them about Lai Gong's residence.

Everyone in the village is an acquaintance, and they look up to each other without looking down. Once an outsider comes in, they all know about it.

In addition, Lai Gong is a scholar with a unique temperament. When Su An asks, they will easily know who they are talking about.

"Which distinguished guest from the city are you talking about? He lives at Li Tiezhu's house. You walk along the entrance of the village, turn in from the fourth house, and count to the seventh house, and you will arrive."

Seeing that it was getting dark, Su An was in a hurry, and an afterimage passed by. His figure appeared directly in front of Lai Gong, and he saluted and said hello.

"This little brother is probably not from Hongye Village. I have been here for seven or eight days, and I have met everyone in the village, big and small, but I have never met you."

Lai Gong looked at the young man. His temperament was different from that of ordinary people. Coupled with his ability, it was easy to conclude that this man was not simple.

"Your shoes are full of mud, and there are traces of walking in the forest on your body. I'm afraid you came from outside to look for me. You didn't ask me your name? Why are you looking for me?"

After introducing herself, Su An fully informed her of her purpose of visit and Liu Ba's recommendation.

Lai Gong was more cautious and did not believe it at first. He also claimed that he did not know Liu Ba and did not know how to use poison.

"Sir, there is no need to deny it. I have a letter here. You will understand it after reading it."

Su An took out the letter and saw the special plum blossom seal, which made Lai Gong put down his guard.

After reading the letter, Lai Gong quickly understood what Liu Ba meant, which was to ask him to take action and not to make things irreversible.

"Liu Ba, not many people know that I can use poison, and he still publicizes it everywhere."

Su An behaved very respectfully. When he heard this, he knew that Lai Gong was very concerned about his reputation and didn't want others to know that he was poisonous.

Lai Gong was searching for medicine in Yunshan, and he had also heard of Su An's name. After all, he had persuaded Kuangfengzhai to be a good man.

This time when I went down the mountain, I heard that Su An was confronting Lulongxian Temple and asked each village to form a guard team, so I had long wanted to visit.

He also didn't expect that such a bold and knowledgeable person would turn out to be just a young man in his weak years, so he immediately took a high look at him.

"Brother Su has become the head of a village at such a young age, which shows that he is very courageous and has a big heart."

Su An was used to exchanging compliments as soon as they met, so he followed suit with a few polite words.

"Actually, I'm quite curious. Kuangfeng Village has been running rampant for many years and there has been no solution. What did you do to make them behave?"

When it came to the incident in Kuangfeng Village, Su An did not take all the credit to himself. He specifically mentioned Jiang Wan, saying that he was still in Guanyang Village.

When Lai Gong heard Jiang Wan's name, he instantly became interested and guessed that he must have participated in the fight against Lulong Immortal Temple.

However, Su An refused to admit it. He only said that he was here to collect food. He was injured by bandits and was recovering in the village. Other matters had nothing to do with him.

Lai Gong understood what he meant and knew that this matter was of great importance. It was all for the sake of his family, so he didn't ask further.

Regarding Liu Ba's invitation, Lai Gong was very willing to help. After all, the evil deeds of Lulong Immortal Temple had become so heinous in Lingling City that they had become a cancer.

Moreover, Jiang Wan was also involved in this matter in Guanyang Village. In terms of reputation and interests, it was worth the risk for Lai Gong.

"Village Chief Su is interested, and thanks to Brother Liu who thinks highly of me, and Brother Jiang's promotion, I, Lai Gong, am willing to go for this operation."

He immediately decided to go to Guanyang Village with Su An and contribute his small strength in the subsequent defensive operations.

Su An used the power of the mirror to see Lai Gong's destiny and Qi gate. He was at the ninth level of the earth level and had twenty-nine Qi gates open.

There are two kinds of destiny, both of which are blue destiny. Poison awareness belongs to the destiny of life, and poison spell belongs to the supernatural power of combat type.

The former's ability can identify herbs containing toxins, analyze the components of toxins, and also extract toxins.

It's a medicine that contains three parts of poison. Although Lai Gong's destiny was a bit off, Su An felt that he might be able to analyze the ingredients of Lulongxian Temple's pills and use them.

The pill was on Su An's body. He didn't expect an unexpected gain, so he took the pill out immediately and told Sun Gang about the symptoms he had when he escaped.

"That's the thing. Please help me, sir. What are the specific ingredients?"

"I personally think that this pill is a good thing. Once I figure it out, maybe I can mass produce it and develop it in batches."
