Are you crazy? Who asked you to hunt for treasures in the emperor's harem?

"Yes!"

Ye Fan nodded, "When I was in Jiangzhou City, my younger brother bought Cuilinge's medicine from a drugstore called Huichuntang. It was said to be nourishing, but the effect was not the same as the medicinal wine you just gave me in the teahouse. Similar...it's not nourishing at all, but rather overdrafts the human body's potential...and it can lead to addiction if you drink too much..."

"If you want to verify it, just find someone to drink with for a while~"

Ye Fan quickly explained to Jiangshan.

"this……….."

Hearing Ye Fan's explanation, Jiang Shan's brows furrowed tightly.

He had previously estimated that the worst case scenario was that the medicinal wine sold to him by Cuilin Pavilion was just to make a lot of money, because the price of those medicinal wines was very high, and the amount of medicinal wine he and Cuilin Pavilion were about to trade was quite large... But if As Ye Fan said, drinking too much of those medicinal wines can make people addicted, so things may not be that simple...

It's okay to say that the prisoners in Zuoshi Mountain will be killed at worst, but if the army in Blackwater Town becomes very dependent on one thing, and that thing is not under his control, the consequences will be disastrous...

…………

After a while, Ye Fan and Liu Mengying left the hotel, while Jiang Shan went to Zaishi Mountain after some contemplation.

The night falls,

dry stone mountain,

"Your Highness, I have confirmed that most of the prisoners did have some changes after eating food containing Cuilin Pavilion medicinal wine... But they are all positive... Their strength has become a lot stronger and they are more energetic. It’s…..”

"It's just that they seem to be less able to resist hunger... If the meal starts a little later, those people will be like dried eggplants, and a few will become manic..."

"As for whether it's addiction or not...it's hard to judge!"

The person who spoke was the man with gray temples who was following Jiang Shan before, Gu Dao.

"Let's go and have a look at the city guards!"

...........

the next day,

Ye Fan and Liu Mengying got up early because they were going to the location of the Danhuo mentioned on A Shao's map.

"Brother, what are you looking at?"

When the two of them passed by the Zangxuan River where the submerged black fish was found earlier, Ye Fan looked at the dark green Zangxuan River in a daze. There was no movement for a long time, and Liu Mengying couldn't help but say something.

"Little Douya, do you think that submerged black fish... is very... strange..."

Ye Fan murmured as he looked at the Zangxuan River that was rippling slightly in the breeze.

“Strange….really delicious…”

Liu Mengying was puzzled and said, "Brother, we don't want to go fishing, do we?"

"no!"

Ye Fan breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's go look for the pill fire!"

..........

at noon,

In a dense forest in a remote area of ​​Heishui Town,

"灁灁铿!~"

There was a sound of metal hitting, but it came from the handcuffs and shackles worn by Ye Fan and Liu Mengying.

"Brother, these... these handcuffs are Xuan Qi cuffs, I... I can't use Xuan Qi!"

Liu Mengying looked around for a while out of the corner of her eye and spoke to Ye Fan in a low voice, with obvious worry in her voice.

"Little bean sprouts, don't worry!"

Ye Fan gave Liu Mengying a comforting look.

It turned out that Ye Fan and Liu Mengying were walking along according to the map given by Ah Xia, and met another group of people halfway. They followed them secretly for a while, and unexpectedly discovered that those people were also looking for Danhuo...

And according to those people, the place they were looking for with the elixir fire was guarded by a powerful ferocious beast, so they captured a few villagers who went into the mountain to collect medicine, and planned to use it to lure away the ferocious beast... …

So Ye Fan and Liu Mengying met those people "accidentally" and were arrested... What surprised Ye Fan was that this group of seemingly ordinary Xuan cultivators actually possessed the Xuan Suppressing Cuff. Plant something...

According to Lei Yu, this thing is exclusively for the Mingyuan royal family...

"Hey, what are you muttering about in front of me?"

At this time, a fierce bald man yelled at him, and several villagers were immediately frightened and quickened their pace, because there was an old man walking slower just now, and then his neck was broken.

Seeing a group of handcuffed villagers speeding up their pace in silence, the bald man was very satisfied.

He strode up to a middle-aged man with a tattoo of an open-mouthed snake on his face, looked in the direction of Ye Fan and Liu Mengying, and squinted slightly, "Team leader, the man and woman I met not long ago were not very good. I’m satisfied... walking through this dense forest, their clothes are too clean and neat, they are most likely mystical cultivators who are looking for elixir fire, I don’t know which sect they are from..."

"really!"

The middle-aged man with an open mouth and a venomous snake tattoo nodded, "That woman is a fifth-level Xuanshi... That man's Xuanqi fluctuations are a bit weird, he is probably about the general level... But it doesn't matter, put on the Xuanzhen cuffs, Even the Hou Jie is no different from ordinary people! As for the sect... Even if he is a member of the five sects, who will die in this insignificant place!"

..........

at dusk,

Escorted by a middle-aged man with an open-mouthed snake tattoo and seven or eight of his men, Ye Fan and his group came to a dark mountain stream. Because they were deep in a dense forest and it was evening, it was almost dark in the mountain stream.

"Everyone, please let me go...my...my three-year-old daughter is still waiting for me to come home..."

A middle-aged man was frightened by the surrounding environment and tremblingly begged for mercy from the middle-aged man with the open-mouthed snake tattoo and others. However, the middle-aged man with the open-mouthed snake tattoo all had cold expressions, without any mercy, and even a trace of ridicule.

"Sasha!"

Suddenly, a grinding sound came from the dark cave ahead, and then two oval red balls the size of stone pillars appeared in everyone's field of vision.

"Sure enough, there is a red-eyed iron-scaled anaconda! Quick, behead all those people and bleed them to attract the red-eyed iron-scaled anaconda's attention!"

At this time, the middle-aged man with the open-mouthed venomous snake tattoo gave a deep shout.

Before he finished speaking, two large oval-shaped red balls in front of him suddenly burst out, and a huge figure rushed out quickly.

"I'll go, it's a big snake!"

Seeing this, Ye Fan couldn't help but exclaimed. The two oval red balls the size of stone pillars just now were the eyes of a big snake with black scales all over its body.

"call out!"

The moment Ye Fan made a sound, a strong man in black next to him pulled out the long knife from his waist and slashed at Ye Fan's neck.

Ye Fan grabbed the opponent's long knife with his backhand, and with a swipe, he instantly chopped off the opponent's head, causing blood to spurt three feet high.

"Sigh!"

At this time, the red-eyed iron-scaled anaconda let out a scream and rushed towards Ye Fan.

Ye Fan pulled up Liu Mengying and jumped to the side. The red-eyed iron-scaled anaconda did not chase Ye Fan and Liu Mengying, but swallowed the strong man in black who spurted blood into its stomach and chewed it.

"what!"

"Run away!"

"It's a ferocious beast... Ah... help..."

...........

Upon seeing this, the arrested villagers immediately screamed and ran away. However, because they were handcuffed together, they did not run in the same direction together and immediately fell to the ground.
