The prince is very fierce

Chapter 12: Hundred Insect Valley (269/588)

It was raining on an autumn night, and the lights in the small street restaurant were dimly lit. Two tables of guests were sitting there, all dressed in dusty clothes.

Xu Buling held an oil-paper umbrella and accompanied Zhongli Chuchu to the wine shop. He found a table in the corner and sat down, ordered a bottle of wine, and turned his head to look at the two tables of drinkers.

There was a war going on in the Chu region. In order to avoid the war, ordinary people and Jianghu people who could run away had already run away, and very few people came from other places. The two tables of guests sitting in the wine shop at this time were obviously a family, including men, women, old and young. They were carrying packages with them. They didn't look like they were just wandering around, nor did they look like they were running away after committing a crime.

South Vietnam's national strength is very weak, and it has been bullied by Dayue all the year round. The Jianghu people are also looked down upon by the Jianghu people in Dayue. Most people who come to Dayue walk in a low-key manner. When they see Xu Buling and Zhongli Chuchu walking in, wearing clothes that look like they are from a wealthy family, they naturally become He restrained himself somewhat, just bowed his head to eat and stopped talking.

Zhongli Chuchu sat for a moment, and when he saw that the other party was silent, he simply said:

"Cousin, how do you like this wine?"

It was in the South Vietnamese dialect, and the voice was soft and pleasant, but Xu Buling obviously couldn't understand it. He looked at Zhongli Chuchu with a blank expression, thought about it, and laughed.

"Brother Duojun, why are you such a fool..."

A woman at the wine table next to her took a peek when Xu Bu Ling came in. When she saw this scene, she sighed in a low voice. A middle-aged man with a machete at the same table, about forty years old, heard Chu Chu's words and turned around with a bit of surprise:

"The girl is also from Liuzhou? She is from my hometown."

Seeing this, Zhongli Chuchu naturally looked surprised and turned around:

"How many of you are from there too?"

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment when he saw Zhong Li's beautiful green eyes, and then he raised his hand and made a fist:

"The girl is the 'Blue Eyed Scorpion' Zhongli Chuchu?"

Most people in the world of Jianghu have a popular nickname when they are walking around. Zhongli Chuchu did give himself such a name when he first ran away from home and was wandering around. Because he was very skilled in using poison and was beautiful, in South Vietnam It's quite famous.

However, this is obviously the "dark history" of his youth and ignorance. Now that he has seen the world, and when he hears this nickname that is similar to the "Fen River Sword God", Zhongli Chuchu wants to cut himself twice, and his whole body is covered in goosebumps.

Fortunately, the other party also spoke in a dialect, which Xu Buling couldn't understand.

Zhongli Chuchu smiled and nodded slightly: "There used to be such a mixed account, but it has been useless for a long time. I didn't expect that this big brother would still remember it."

Hearing this, the faces of the guests at both tables showed surprise. The middle-aged man stood up and praised:

"Miss Zhongli is so humble. You are a famous person in Liuzhou. You are the only Bagui in South Vietnam. Your name is bigger than the Seven Stars of South Vietnam here. However, I heard that you are married to the son of a prince from Dayue. , that young prince is leading his troops to fight near here..."

Having said this, the middle-aged man's expression changed and he looked at Xu Buling next to him.

Xu Buring couldn't understand what both parties were saying, but he could guess a rough idea by observing their words and expressions. He raised his hand:

"Don't be nervous, everyone. I'm just going out for a walk with Chu Chu. I have no other meaning."

The middle-aged man's body tensed up, and after thinking about it for a moment, he felt that even if Dayue caught the enemy's spies, he would not let the contemporary Wu Kui and the son of the feudal prince come to catch a few of their refugees. This was too flattering to them. Thinking of this, the middle-aged man relaxed a little and raised his hand to salute:

"I'm here in Liuzhou, Dong Qing, to pay my respects to the young prince."

This time he was talking about elegant words that are universally applicable. Xu Buling nodded with a smile: "You don't have to be so polite. Sit down. There is a war in Chu. Why is Brother Dong running to Chu at this time?"

Seeing that Xu Buling was quite easy-going, Dong Qing no longer panicked. He returned to the wine table and sat down, shaking his head and sighing:

"South Vietnam is a small place, and news spreads slowly. The young prince may not know about it. Now that the world is in chaos, the officials there have also gone crazy, arresting strong men everywhere and sending them into the army. There is no peace in the world, and some evil ways have appeared out of nowhere. Poison spells have harmed the villages in the mountains. According to rumors, it seems to be the handiwork of Sikong Zhi. As long as the villages are affected by the disaster, no matter men, women, old or young, they will go crazy and kill everyone on sight. There will be no last one left. It is really tragic..."

Xu Buling frowned slightly when he heard this.

South Vietnam is not a big country, but it is still a country. There are many outstanding people in the world. The "Seven Stars of South Vietnam" mentioned by Dong Qing are the most representative masters of South Vietnam. Xu Buling knows something about them.

Qixing is just a collective name, just like Shi Wukui, it is not a powerful person.

In the Jianghu of Nanyue, the most common people are strange people who practice evil ways. In terms of martial arts attainments alone, they are definitely not as good as the famous and upright sects in the Jianghu of the Central Plains. But when it comes to using evil methods, no one in the world can match them; just Zhongli Jiujiu can come out. To be able to force half of the military commanders to not dare to get close, one can only imagine the level of these people.

The Sikong Zhi mentioned by Dong Qing was considered a tycoon in the world of South Vietnam. He was very good at using poisons and had a lot of blood debts on him. When Xu Buling was caught by the dragon poison, King Su sent people to South Vietnam to find the antidote. Sikong Zhi, it’s a pity that I couldn’t find it.

Sikong Zhi was massacring a mountain village in South Vietnam, which naturally had nothing to do with Xu Buling. The reason why he frowned was because of some records of the founding battle before Jiazi.

Sikongzhi is not a murderer, but an expert in using poison. According to rumors, Sikongzhi and Shangguan Qinhe in the "Seven Stars of South Vietnam" are both remnants of the South Vietnam Poison Sect Baichonggu in the pre-Jiazi period.

After the founding of the country, Emperor Xiaozong of Dayue specifically ordered to send heavy troops to clear out the evil sects in the Jianghu of Nanyue. The biggest reason came from Baichong Valley.

For a political power to be so valued by the emperor of the Central Plains, it must have a few tricks up its sleeve. The ‘Dragon Locking Gu’ that still makes the masters in the world change their minds after hearing about it is the masterpiece of Bai Chong Valley, but the Dragon Locking Gu is by no means the most lethal poison in Bai Chong Valley.

During the war between the Three Kingdoms, some hostile forces recruited poison masters from South Vietnam to cast "Mad King Gu" in the military camps. This poison is not fatal, but has a strong hallucinogenic effect, which can affect people's sanity and willpower. People who are not strong fall into a state of extreme fear or extreme excitement.

It was this poison that directly led to several camp-wide mutinies and thousands of people killing each other. To prevent the spread, the surrounding armies had to use crossbows to shoot all the soldiers to death in the barracks and set them on fire.

To this day, when Dayue's army is camping, there are still people who clean up the surrounding area to prevent birds, rats, snakes, etc. from bringing poison in from the outside. This shows how deep the scars left in the memory are.

Before Jiazi, the Hundred Insect Valley was burned to the ground, and all kinds of poisons were burned away. Only the King of Gu, Suolong Gu, was kept by the head of the Xiao family. The Mad King Gu was a key cleanup target of the imperial court and could not be left behind.

But what Dong Qing said, "Both men, women, and children, all went crazy and killed everyone on sight, leaving no one alive" is very similar to the Mad King Gu recorded in the Jiazi archives. Xu Buling was naturally alert to this. If South Vietnam was secretly studying something that was no less than a plague, that would be no small matter.

Zhongli Chuchu didn't feel much about Sikong Zhi's evil deeds, because in that hellish place in South Vietnam, evil deeds of massacre of villages were not uncommon. After listening to Dong Qing's words for a while, she asked:

"Brother Dong, what's going on over there in Feishui Ridge?"

Dong Qing shook his head and sighed: "The imperial court is looking for young men everywhere. I don't want to fight, so I took my family and ran here. There are eighteen villages around Feishuiling, with tens of thousands of people in total, there is no chance of running away. I heard The old village was wiped out by the imperial court, and most of the people were captured. Now the leader is Zhan Bao from Erniu Mountain. I don’t know the details. "

Zhongli Chuchu's face darkened when he heard this.

Xu Buling frowned, but he couldn't believe everything the Jianghu people said. He still had to go back and send someone to investigate, and then make a decision after careful discussion with the military staff. If South Vietnam is really secretly launching an army, Chu Land will be beyond Liuzhou, which will be a big threat to the rear of the Xiliang Army. If it is confirmed, it is estimated that they will have to strike first and divide their troops to destroy South Vietnam.

Thinking of this, Xu Buling stood up, took a waist badge from his waist, and handed it to Dong Qing:

"There is a war in Yueyang. I have no status and my family cannot stay there permanently. Take the sign and go to the government to settle down and find a place to settle down."

Dong Qing's eyes lit up, and he quickly stood up and bowed: "The young prince is so polite. This solves a big problem. Dong is really grateful. In the future...well, I probably won't be able to repay the young prince with my status."

Xu Buring chuckled lightly, and just let people settle in Dayue, which was not a help. He didn't say anything more at the moment, and quickly walked out of the wine shop with Zhongli Chuchu...
