Chapter 267 Longevity Pills, Black Market Merchants Transaction

Arriving at the destination, it was a village with dozens of households, still under the jurisdiction of Lijiu City.

In addition to Dayan Huazong, there are actually many sects in Lijiu City. They are all martial artists who follow the Tongqiao Dao, but they are all under the jurisdiction of Dayan Huazong.

Li Changxiao looked from afar and saw that the ground was full of wounds. It seemed that a big battle had taken place last night.

He did not expect such a tragedy to happen here.

He got off the horse and walked in the ruined village. There were corpses everywhere, men, women, old and young. Li Changxiao frowned slightly, and he could see from this place that there was a breath of Dayan Huazong martial arts.

Last night, an elder of Dayan Huazong came here and fought a big battle with a group of people.

However, according to the traces at the scene.

That elder has an overwhelming advantage.

Li Changxiao speculated that the elder was probably Zhang Mo. With her vigorous character, she was probably still worried about the case and came to investigate overnight.

If it was really her, then it would be normal.

As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune go hand in hand. Zhang Mo once ate a spiritual fruit in the depths of the pollen forest, and absorbed the purest spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the corner of the sky. These effects on the body have a lot of benefits. In addition, her own talent is good enough to help her martial arts to a higher level.

The group of people who fought against Zhang Mo are most likely the ones who massacred the village.

But why did they massacre the village? ... Li Changxiao thought silently. He explored the remains of the village and finally stopped in front of a yellow mud house.

This family has traces of a recent funeral.

It should be the hometown of the sick servant of the Wang family, but Li Changxiao searched around but did not find the servant's body.

Could it be that the group came for the body?

Although the body was not found, it does not mean that nothing was found. On the contrary, this just confirms Li Changxiao's guess.

According to the housekeeper of the Wang Mansion.

The servant is already very old. He grew up with the master since he was a child and took care of the master's food, clothing and daily life for most of his life.

In other words, he also lived for a long time.

Li Changxiao returned to Lijiu City and sneaked into the palace. No one opened the coffin. As he thought, the body of Mr. Wang disappeared.

Li Changxiao did not stop.

Zhang Mo's presence could indeed help him save some trouble, but if she joined in the strange case, it would only bring risks.

So Li Changxiao did not call her, but acted alone.

The fragmentary clues in his mind had already been connected by him.

He quietly left the palace and went to the wine shop where he drank and recruited a bride.

The case of the mummy in the wine shop and the strange case seemed to have no connection.

In fact, they have one thing in common.

That is, they both involved the life-stealing path.

The death of the parasite master who walked the Tongqiao path can be regarded as an accident.

The couple was indeed innocent.

The key lies in the word "business". The parasite master is about to die, and his strongest desire is naturally to prolong his life. However, the parasite master is obviously not a local and is not familiar with Lijiu City.

It can be imagined that the parasite master heard a rumor and came to Lijiu City specifically to find a certain type of person to do the longevity business. It can also be said that he came to ask for medicine, medicine for longevity.

But he found the wrong one.

He wanted to find a black market merchant of the Life Stealing Dao, but he found the Yin-Yang couple of the Life Stealing Dao. Both of them are Life Stealing Dao, so the skinny man got confused.

The warm jade under Mr. Wang's bed is also related to the black market merchant of the Life Stealing Dao.

Combining the two cases.

It is not difficult to see that the black market merchant of the Life Stealing Dao is the one who really controls the longevity business.

It was him who made Mr. Wang live to more than 170 years old.

And the servant followed Mr. Wang since he was a child and lived to more than 100 years old. His ability to live so long must be related to Mr. Wang and the longevity business.

In other words, the illness of the Wang family servants shows that this strange disease is closely related to the longevity business, and there is an inevitable connection.

Li Changxiao speculated that it might be a black market merchant who sold a pill with the effect of prolonging life. Taking it can prolong life, but it will also cause illness.

As long as the black market merchant is found.

Everything will be clear.

The black market merchant hides deeply, and I am afraid that only people who have lived in Lijiu City for a long time have heard of it.

Li Changxiao's eyes showed a thoughtful look. The base of the black market merchant should be near the wine shop where the mummy case occurred, otherwise the parasitologist would not have made a mistake.

Li Changxiao came to that street and took a look. He really found a shop that was a little strange.

It was a jade shop.

There were various jades on display inside, and in addition to jade, there were also various rare things.

One of the jades looked familiar to Li Changxiao. It had a toad body and a human head. From Zhang Mo, he knew that the life-stealing sect had different factions. This toad swallowing longevity statue was the faction symbol of the life-stealing sect in the Baiyu area.

"This is a longevity toad. Don't be fooled by its ugly appearance, but it is very auspicious." The store manager introduced with a smile.

Li Changxiao saw at a glance that this person was not a life-extending toad. His real age was around 30 years old, so he blew a breath at him.

The breeze brought dreams.

The shallow dream controlled the store manager's behavior again.

He turned around woodenly and walked towards somewhere.

Li Changxiao followed behind him.

There was another world in this store. The store manager fiddled with a jade mechanism, opened the secret compartment, and revealed a dark passage.

Go deep into the passage.

Candles were burning on both sides, and a faint fragrance wafted out, but it was non-toxic and even had the effect of calming the mind.

The ground underfoot was wrapped in a soft leather, making it extremely comfortable to walk on. Although the passage was dark, it actually didn't look gloomy at all. It looked more like a secret place for the rich to play.

Passing a corner.

There was a faint sound of bidding in my ears.

Li Changxiao blew a breath of wind, intercepted the wind, pinched it left and right, and rubbed the Heaven Seal in the Ten Immortal Seals into the wind, using it as an eye, and then let go of his hands to let the wind blow along the passage.

This method is like opening the divine consciousness.

Everything in this secret room can be seen at a glance.

This is actually a small auction house. There is a charming woman standing on the stage, auctioning a pale white pill.

And the bidders below the stage are bidding more and more terrifyingly, competing fiercely, and no one is willing to give in.

Even two old men rolled up their sleeves and almost fought for the pill.

That charming woman is probably a black market merchant who steals lives.

And that pill is probably the source of the strange disease, but it can indeed increase lifespan.

If Li Changxiao guessed correctly.

That strange disease is not highly contagious.

The reason why it has been spreading is that people are constantly swallowing that white pill, or in other words, people who have swallowed this pill will be infected in the near future.

Li Changxiao gently exhaled a breath of Fuhuafeng.

The people who were bidding fiercely fell asleep in an instant, and the originally lively secret place suddenly became deserted.

The black market merchant who took the life-stealing road frowned and saw Li Changxiao coming from the dark.

After a negotiation between the two, Li Changxiao asked the black market merchant where the pill came from. The black market merchant didn't say it, and then naturally a competition broke out.

The charming woman's cultivation was only at the Nascent Soul stage, how could she be Li Changxiao's opponent? Li Changxiao only blew a breath of Fuhuafeng and blew her away.

The enchanting woman wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her pupils trembling, and blurted out: "Red Domain Xiao Family's descendants?"

The enchanting woman's words made Li Changxiao frown. Red Domain Xiao Family's descendants? Red Domain Xiao Family is Red Domain Xiao Family, why add the word "descendants"?

Li Changxiao pinched the immortal seal and gently printed it on the enchanting woman's belly.

A mysterious force poured into the enchanting woman's body.

The enchanting woman was horrified, "The breath of the essence?"

"Who are you?"

In less than a breath, she had lost her fighting power. Li Changxiao told her that if she wanted to survive, she should close this business, and then go to Zhaoxiang Restaurant in the middle of the night to find him.

Said.

Li Changxiao turned around and left.

The enchanting woman looked ugly. What was the identity of this mysterious man who suddenly broke in? And what was his purpose?

She had no choice but to do as she was told. When the customers who wanted to buy longevity pills woke up, she drove them all out. She was restless until late at night, then she put on a black robe and went to the third floor of Zhaoxiang Tower.

Zhaoxiang Tower was built by the water and had a pleasant scenery.

The man sat by the window, waiting for her. The contest during the day made the charming woman realize that she was no match for this man, and she couldn't even escape. The other party had the power of "divine essence".

That power made her afraid.

No matter before or now.

"Very good." Li Changxiao showed satisfaction when he saw him coming.

He got straight to the point and asked her some questions. Compared with the daytime, she was obviously much more sensible, but still dishonest.

She lied a lot.

If it were anyone else, it would be hard to tell.

However, she was facing Li Changxiao, who was on a journey of "true and false".

Under his deliberate questioning, there were not many people who could deceive him, and this charming woman was obviously not one of them.

Li Changxiao was too lazy to distinguish every word. He picked up a peanut with two fingers and flicked it lightly, shooting it at the eyebrows of the charming woman.

At this moment.

The charming woman's expression was confused.

After a few breaths, her eyes gradually regained their spirit, but they were still blank. After a few more breaths, they began to recover their clarity little by little.

When she was roughly awake, she shuddered violently.

She breathed in fresh air in big gulps.

The cold sweat on her forehead came out at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Her whole body seemed to be fished out from the bottom of the water.

Fear spread in her heart.

The man opposite only said slowly, "Don't lie."
