The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent
Chapter 844: Poison, Imprisonment
The three Nantai people spat out a mouthful of black blood, and Wei Song asked seriously: "Who sent you here?"
The leader gritted his teeth and continued, "The masters we obey include those from Nantai and the Eastern Empire."
Netherworld Jiuchong's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he asked in a cold voice: "Who are the masters you follow?"
"One is Nan, the six of Nantai..."
However, the following words cannot be said at all!
"Puff!" The leader vomited a large mouthful of green blood before he finished speaking. The two men in black lying next to him also vomited green blood at the same time and died instantly.
Netherworld Nine's eyes darkened when he saw the struggle in the leader's eyes. His eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. He wanted to speak but couldn't.
He whimpered twice, a very complicated look revealed in his eyes, and he actually vomited blood and died.
Wei Song was shocked: "Did they die of the poison so quickly?"
They used poisoned swords to stab the three Nantai people, but the swords were only slightly poisonous and would not kill them so quickly. Moreover, the three men looked energetic and did not seem to be dying immediately.
"Yes." Netherworld Nine Coldly withdrew his gaze from the Nantai people, "He was poisoned, but not the poison on the sword."
His tone turned cold and he said in a deep voice - "Or rather, none of them are poisonous at all."
Ying Yi thought for a moment and added, "The poison on the sword made them spit out black blood, but in the end they spit out green blood."
In other words, the real reasons behind the vomiting of blood of two different colors by the people of Nantai are different.
Wei Song and other guards were shocked and looked puzzled. They didn't quite understand what was going on.
Netherworld Nine pointed at the green blood on the ground and said, "Look."
Everyone looked over and saw a strange green blood on the ground that looked like coagulated chicken and duck blood and did not spread out at all.
The Nantai man had just vomited blood, and that blood was no different from normal blood, just like water, but with a different color. But when the blood fell to the ground, it changed its appearance and became as thick as unground ink, which was really weird.
Netherworld Nine reminded: "Look carefully, what's in the blood."
Everyone looked intently and saw that there seemed to be something wriggling inside the stagnant blood clot. The movement was very small, but they could still see a hint of movement if they looked carefully.
Soon, they saw what was inside the blood clot!
It's a bug!
In each blood clot there is a long worm as big as a silver needle. The worm is green all over and is poking its head out of the blood clot, as if trying to escape.
But in the blink of an eye, the three green worms struggled twice and then became motionless.
"The bugs are dead, what happened?" A guard looked at him strangely, his tone full of deep doubt.
Everyone doesn't understand why the three Nantai people died suddenly, and the cause of death seemed to be related to another toxin? They also don't understand why they vomited green blood, and the shape of the green blood was so strange, and there were strange insects in the blood? What was that strange insect, and why did it die suddenly?
Netherworld Nineth Level slowly opened his mouth and explained to everyone: "This group of black-clothed people have been poisoned. Someone has secretly put a child Gu in their bodies. And the person who controls the mother Gu is the one who poisoned them. In my opinion, the person who poisoned them is one of the masters they are loyal to."
"Then why did the master poison his subordinates?" Wei Song murmured, his thick brows twisted into a knot.
Netherworld Nineth Level glanced at the corpses on the ground, "The reason why he poisoned them is probably because he wanted to control this team."
"You also saw the complicated expressions on the eyes of the three Nantai people before they died. They were shocked, confused, and unwilling. Before they set out to Zhongyue, they didn't know that they were poisoned by the master they followed."
"Therefore, once they reveal some secret information, especially when they mention some key words, they will automatically be poisoned and die instantly."
So this is exactly why the three Nantai people vomited green blood and died when they wanted to continue confessing.
Everyone gradually understood. A guard said with a bitter face: "Just now, the leader of the men in black didn't have time to tell us more key information."
Ying Yi said calmly: "He can't continue. Even if he doesn't mention the word 'six' he just said, he can't escape the punishment of Zi Gu's death if he mentions other key words. The same goes for other Nantai people. If they say it, they will die. Others can't ask anything. After all, these Nantai people can die suddenly at any time."
Their master had imposed multiple restrictions. Even if the leader did not say certain words, he would still be punished if he said other words. No matter what choice he made, he could not escape that restriction.
A guard looked thoughtful and puzzled, "When the leader confessed his master's identity, he mentioned the number 'six'. Is there any special person in Nantai who has the number 'six'?"
He was a personal guard of the Night King's Palace and had some understanding of the situations in various countries, but it was not a good idea for him to guess which Nantai person had the word "six" at the moment.
Youming Jiuchong gently wiped the soft sword in his hand with a handkerchief, then folded it, inserted it into the scabbard, and hung it around his waist.
In response to the guards' confusion, he curled his lips slightly and spoke directly about a person.
"The Sixth Prince of Nantai."
Wanyan Sen, the sixth prince of Nantai, was a prince whom the Emperor of Nantai valued very much.
Although Nan Tai had already decided on the candidate for the crown prince, the sixth prince of Nan Tai, Wanyan Sen, had an extraordinary status and some means, and in recent years he had won over a group of supporters in the Nan Tai court.
Wanyan Sen is an ambitious man who has been eyeing the position of Crown Prince of Nantai and has ulterior motives for the position of Heir to the throne of Nantai.
When talking about important figures in Nantai with the word "six" in their names, the first person that comes to mind is the Sixth Prince Wanyan Sen, not any other names like the Sixth Prince, the Sixth Princess, the Sixth Young Master, etc.
Now that the Sixth Prince Wan Yansen has sent new assassins to Zhongyue, it can be seen that he has begun to target the neighboring country Zhongyue. Unknown people have quietly come to three counties in Zhongyue. Wan Yansen is one of them, and there is also a hint of involvement from the Dongyang Empire...
Netherworld Nine's eyes were calm, and his pair of blood-red eyes were full of composure.
Tong ordered: "Pass on my order. First, search the cave carefully."
"Second, find the antidote inside the stone wall."
Based on the antidote, they speculated that the arrow was contaminated with poison, and then found out which people were related to the poison.
Li Yan glanced around and saw that the cave was in chaos, with traces of fighting everywhere. There were corpses all over the ground, and many torches and candlesticks around were extinguished. The dim light made the scenery in the cave even more bizarre.
Looking further back, the row of small stone doors at the back of the hall were all open. When the men in black rushed out, they did not close the stone doors where they slept.
Netherworld Nine retracted his gaze and gave the final order: "Three, search their bedrooms and look for more clues."
"Also, check if there is any other space or way out in this cave in case someone could hide or escape."
Three orders were given and the guards began to act.
Nether Nine looked at Ying Yi and said faintly: "It's time to tip off the emperor."
The situation inside the cave has been controlled by the Ninth Layer of the Netherworld, and there is also unrest outside the cave...
Ying Er and Ying San had been holding their ground at the back of the cave, but unexpectedly they actually managed to spot some escaped men in black!
