Chapter 231 Snake Vine(1/2)
"This..."
Da Jinya also calmed down a lot now. Hearing Chen Ziyan's question, he subconsciously began to think.
But after thinking for a while, he said helplessly: "I've been living quietly these days, and I haven't encountered any strange people or things?"
After he completed the task assigned by Chen Ziyan, he stayed in Xiangyin. Since he was unfamiliar with the place there, he had no intention of going out and stayed in the prepared residence all day.
Even if you want to meet strange people or things, you have no chance.
When Chen Ziyan heard this, he thought it was impossible. The residence of Da Jinya and the others in Xiangyin was arranged by his family.
If Big Gold Tooth didn't run around by himself, there shouldn't be any problems.
And more importantly, there is more than just Da Jinya there. To put it bluntly, whether it is Chen Yulou or Yingzi, they are more important to Chen Ziyan than Da Jinya. If there is a chance to plot, they should be chosen first.
Ah.
Thinking of this, Chen Ziyan suddenly thought of a question. If Da Jinya had a problem in his residence, would it be possible to hide it from his uncle?
With Chen Yulou's current hearing ability, if you want to manipulate around him, it is probably as difficult as facing Chen Ziyan directly.
At this time, Hu Bayi said to the man named Miao: "My friend, please think again. Is there any other way?"
He saw that there was no hope for Da Jinya, so he once again shifted his hope to the man named Miao.
The man surnamed Miao kept frowning: "I really don't have any good ideas. I have never even seen this mind-bewildering Gu. I can only recognize it if I know its characteristics. I really don't know how to deal with it. The only thing I can think of now is this."
Two stupid ways."
Wang Kaixuan walked around impatiently and said: "Then what should we do now? This living person can't die of urination!"
This won't work, and that won't work either. It's very frustrating to not be able to think of a solution for a while.
Seeing that everyone was worried about him, Da Jinya suddenly felt warm in his heart, and comforted him: "I told you guys, don't be anxious. I'm fine now, let's take it slow."
Chen Ziyan patted his shoulder lightly: "Lao Jin, keep your mentality."
Then he looked at the others: "No matter who did it, their purpose shouldn't be simple. Let's all pay more attention to our surroundings. There will be times when the other party reveals its flaws."
They have no solution to this situation right now, so they can only look for a solution while carefully taking care of the big gold teeth.
But just as Chen Ziyan finished speaking, the man surnamed Miao next to him seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said: "I thought of something, maybe I can use it to save Lao Jin!"
Wang Kaixuan was the first to react and asked quickly: "What is it?"
Chen Ziyan and Hu Bayi also looked at this man eagerly, waiting for the other person's answer.
The man named Miao slowly spit out a name: "Snake Vine."
"Snake vine?" Chen Ziyan repeated the name, looked at Ding Sitian next to him, and asked: "Miss Ding, do you know this snake vine?"
Ding Sitian immediately said: "I know about the snake vine, but I'm not sure if it's the same thing. The snake vine I know is a medicine and is slightly toxic!"
After finishing speaking, Ding Sitian looked at the man named Miao and asked: "Sir, is this the snake vine you are talking about?"
The man surnamed Miao shook his head slightly: "Although the name is the same, it is not the same thing. The snake vine I am talking about is also a medicine, but it is a poison. It does not say that it can seal the throat at the sight of blood, but it can be regarded as a five-step death."<
/p>
Maybe because he felt that what he said was unclear, he continued to add: "The snake vine I am talking about is not a simple plant. It is the same type as Cordyceps. It just looks like a snake, so it is called snake vine."<
/p>
"This thing... is quite weird." Wang Kaixuan said with a frown.
Ding Sitian is proficient in pharmacology, but this is the first time she heard about this snake vine. She couldn't help but ask: "What about the efficacy of this snake vine?"
She asked this question almost subconsciously.
The man surnamed Miao replied: "This thing has no effect. The only characteristic is that it is poisonous."
Chen Ziyan interrupted the conversation between the two and asked directly: "How can I save Lao Jin and where can I get this?"
He doesn't care about the effectiveness of this snake vine at all, as long as he is sure that it can solve the problem of the big golden tooth.
"The poison of this snake vine is a bit special. It is harmful to both humans and animals, but it is a rare tonic for Gu insects." The man surnamed Miao replied.
Then he thought for a while and continued: "As for where to get it, in the entire capital, only the Crescent Hotel may have this channel."
Hu Bayi asked: "Is this thing rare?"
The man named Miao nodded: "It's a very rare thing."
Chen Ziyan breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I'm not afraid of his scarcity, as long as I can get it."
He was afraid that this was a rare treasure and there was no place to get it, which would be really bad.
Now that we know where to get it, it will be much easier.
Then, Chen Ziyan looked at the man surnamed Miao: "I haven't asked for advice yet, how to use this thing?"
He doesn't plan to involve this person in what happens next.
Through the conversation just now, Chen Ziyan has already figured out that although Da Jinya's friend is a Gu Master, he is also the type who can only scratch the surface.
Their current situation is not suitable for rashly involving each other. As for recruiting this person into the team, Chen Ziyan doesn't think it is necessary.
His core team is very strict in selecting people and will not rashly let such a stranger enter.
As for the non-core teams, that's not something he needs to worry about. Once King Jinya solves this problem, he can just let him talk about it.
The man surnamed Miao didn't hide anything, and said directly: "The use of this thing is also simple. Just take out the juice inside, and then make an opening on Lao Jin's wrist, and you should be able to use the smell to draw out the poisonous insects."
"Should?" Chen Ziyan heard the uncertainty in his words and asked.
The man surnamed Miao said: "I have only heard of this method and have never practiced it, so I am not too sure. But if you only open the mouth at the wrist, it will be fine even if it fails."
"Okay, I understand." Chen Ziyan nodded.
As long as there is no danger, there is no harm in trying it.
At most, it is a waste of money, and this loss is nothing to them.
Afterwards, Chen Ziyan sent the man named Miao away.
When there were only a few of them left in the store, Chen Ziyan said: "Let's go to the Crescent Hotel later."
Since this person just said that the Crescent Hotel is the only place in the entire capital, there might be a way to get those snake vines, so they would naturally make a trip.
Hu Bayi and the others had no objection at all to Chen Ziyan's proposal, and they also wanted to help Da Jinya solve this problem as soon as possible.
But at this moment, Da Jinya suddenly said: "Mr. Chen, today is not the day for the auction at the Crescent Hotel. I'm afraid it will be useless for us to go."
Compared to Chen Ziyan and the others, he knows the rules of the Crescent Hotel better.
The auction is held in the middle of every month. At other times, Crescent Hotel is just like its name, just a hotel.
Hu Bayi didn't believe it: "You're open for business, but you still don't receive guests?"
Da Jinya immediately gave a bitter smile and explained: "Master Hu, this Crescent Hotel is not an ordinary place. It can be said to be the largest auction house in the entire north, and even in the country. It is a place with good reputation."<
/p>
Crescent Hotel never accommodates its guests, but requires guests to accommodate it.
Wang Kaixuan was astonished when he heard this: "It sounds like this means it's pretty good."
Chen Ziyan said: "It's not that the Crescent Hotel doesn't accept guests on weekdays, it just doesn't accept ordinary guests."
He doesn't know the rules of the Crescent Hotel, but he still knows this.
Hu Bayi glanced at Ding Sitian next to him and asked: "Sitian, do you know this Crescent Hotel?"
"I know." Ding Si nodded and said: "Although I have never been in contact with him, I have heard some rumors. Not only is the Crescent Hotel itself powerful, but there is also a big shot behind it, one of the top forces in the capital.
."
Wang Kaixuan asked: "How does that compare with the Nine Gates?"
Ding Sitian thought for a while and said: "It depends on the comparison, but generally speaking, the Crescent Hotel is similar to the Nine Gates, and even surpasses it in some aspects."
Ding Sitian's words instantly made Wang Kaixuan give up some of his little thoughts.
Just now, this guy was still thinking, if Crescent Hotel doesn't know how to adapt, can it use some tricks?
Now that I hear someone is so powerful, I immediately know not to think about such small tricks.
Chen Ziyan looked around and said, "Let's go back and clean up. Let's go to the Crescent Hotel."
……
An hour later.
Chen Ziyan and his party were already standing outside the Crescent Hotel.
Looking at the ancient building in front of him, Wang Kaixuan said: "This style is quite similar to yours, Mr. Chen."
Chen Ziyan ignored this guy, but reminded: "When you get in, look more and talk less, especially don't say anything you shouldn't say. Having ears in this wall is not as simple as just talking."
Hu Ba nodded: "Don't worry, Mr. Chen, we are all aware of it."
On the way, Chen Ziyan had already given an overview of the situation at the Crescent Hotel, so they all knew that there were a group of listening slaves with amazing ears here.
Chen Ziyan didn't say anything more and walked into the open door first.
