Chapter 496 Three lives can be released
As soon as these two groups of people met, everyone, including Wu Mingzi, couldn't help but focus on a "captive" in the Cao Gang team.
But seeing that at this moment, the Shadowless Poison Lord was not only tied up and hung horizontally on a pole, but also removed all clothes except the pants, and tightly sealed the five orifices with wax and thick cloth, leaving only two nostrils for him to breathe.
In this state, it is difficult for others to think that it is not difficult for them to look at him a few more times.
But to be honest, Di Buyi did not make him like this because of humiliating Poison in public. It was simply that the leader Di suffered too many losses, so just in case, he was a bit overkill.
But you have to admit that if he did this, even if the Shadowless Poison Lord had the magical technique of heaven, he would not be able to use it at all.
Unless... like Yu Jianli, the Poison Master has also practiced "Hidden Eagle", of course, in fact, he has never practiced it.
"Long time no see, Gang Di."
"Mr. Murong, don't be fine."
When the two bigwigs met, they had to say hello to each other first, but because Murong Shu didn't know Di Buyi's purpose, he didn't talk too enthusiastically.
As for Di Buyi, because he was not sure that the Murong family simply hired Wu Mingzi to play games for them, or had some collusion with him and participated in the hiring of the poisonous master to kill people, he was also on guard against the other party.
"I am worried about it, but I don't know..." There are so many things happening now, Murong Shu didn't even bother with the other party. After dealing with it for a while, he turned to ask, "...What's the matter with the leader Di's mobilization of troops this time?"
"It's easy to say, I'm here to give me two friends..." Di Buyi said, then turned his attention to Sun Yixie, "Sun Shaoxia and Huang Shaoxia... gave a big gift."
What Di Buyi said was quite cunning.
He did not point out what the "big gift" was, but basically everyone understood that what he was referring to was the one tied in the team.
But Di Buyi didn't mention who that person was and why he was a "great gift". He just wanted to use this ambiguous answer to test the reactions of others.
As for why he said that this gift was given to Sun and Huang, it is easy to understand.
First, although these two guys are just talking and are far from spending money and efforts, they are still the organizers of this competition... Like Huo Ming and Murong Shu, they have a very high voice in today's event.
Secondly, Sun and Huang saved Di Buyi and his "nephew" Di Gui at least once. Even if they had no friendship, they had two favors. In addition, they also had the identity of "Four Gates and Three Gangs", so they were more trustworthy than outsiders.
"Oh? The 'big gift' that the leader of Gang Di is referring to..." After hearing Di Buyi's answer, Murong Shu's response was calm. He just turned his attention to the "captive" that everyone was already paying attention to, hoping that the other party would give him a correct word.
"It's this person." Di Buyi did not deny it, but did not disclose more information about this person.
However, there was a person who was already panicked just by hearing this...
That person is undoubtedly Wu Mingzi who is used to "internal friction".
With Wu Mingzi's character and wisdom, he naturally had a high degree of doubt at this moment that the captive was the Shadowless Poison Lord who had previously escaped from the venue.
If this is true, not to mention that the Dugu father and son who are uncertain about life and death in the tent may be saved, what is even more troublesome is that the Poison Lord is very likely to offer the fact that he was entrusted to kill Dugu Sheng.
By then, Wu Mingzi, a person who is well-known to have a grudge with Dugu Sheng, will inevitably become the object of doubt.
Of course, even if you get to that point, it is not a dead end...
Because the letter Wu Mingzi wrote to the Poison Lord was written with his left hand; the person who sent the letter was the remnants of Wujian Villa, and they had nothing to do with Kunlun... So Wu Mingzi believed that the Poison Lord did not know the identity of the client at all.
Let’s take a step back, what if Poison Master guesses the identity of the client?
People like the Shadowless Poison Master have no credibility when they say something, and he, Wu Mingzi, is a famous Kunlun master at least. If Poison Master really accused him, he could be refusal.
He could say: "The whole martial arts world knows that Dugu Sheng and I had a little grudge back then, so now the scum Wuying Poison Zun tries to pull me in and muddle the water."
After all, a letter with unknown handwriting cannot be used as evidence.
Unless someone can come up with another letter that is sure that it is written by Wu Mingzi himself, and it is also written by his left hand for comparison.
Or someone can stand up and prove that the true hero who was given to the Poison Lord as a reward was Wu Mingzi.
Otherwise, everyone will rely on their own words, and then they will rely on their status and strength to discuss the truth or falsehood. A person like Poison Zun will only rely on confessions and will never be able to defeat Wu Mingzi.
However, when it really comes to that situation, it will be very unfavorable to Wu Mingzi. Who knows what else will happen next?
"Who is this?" On the other side, while Wu Mingzi secretly settled the score, Murong Shu asked again.
But Di Buyi would not continue to say this after he came here, but just replied: "Well... I'm afraid it's inconvenient to say it here. I wonder if Mr. Murong could lead Di to meet Chief Huo and Young Master Huang. When they were also present, Di should make it clear."
When Murong Shu heard this, his brows frowned slightly, and his thoughts also flew.
He seemed to have vaguely noticed that the person sent by Di Buyi might be related to the poisoning incident in the venue, but he was not completely sure.
"Well... it's OK." After thinking for a while, Murong Shu replied, "But the leader of the Di gang has many men, if all..."
"Oh, Di understands." Di Buyi took the initiative to answer before he finished speaking, "My brothers from the Cao Gang can stay here and wait. Di can only bring several people with Mr. Murong."
Even if Murong Shu didn't mention it, Di Buyi did not intend to let his team of troops pour into the venue. These people stayed here just in case.
In the venue in front of you, there are thousands of martial arts people from all walks of life, and there are dozens of senior executives of participating sects with great strength in the backstage. If you really want to fight, can Wu Mingzi make a big splash alone?
Even Di Buyi was looking forward to Wu Mingzi's last desperate attempt. At that time, he, Gang Master Di, joined hands with the heads of major sects to rush forward... The chance of getting you is much higher than having one-on-one fight, right? And after that, I, the leader of the Cao Gang, who exposes your true face, will remember the first merit.
"Okay, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's go to the backstage to talk about it." Sun Yixie watched the side for a long time, secretly analyzed the situation, and began to help Di Buyi.
From Sun Yixie's perspective, this account is actually better calculated - it is known that Wu Mingzi must have a problem, so when he returns to the backstage where experts gather, he is more confident to start, and stay here to continue to argue. If this guy feels that the situation is not good and wants to run away, and then suddenly starts to kill someone, then only the leader of the Di here may be able to withstand one or two... The Murong family's few are either fucking or disabled people. It's better to rely on them than to rely on me.
In this way, everyone returned together.
Di Buyi only brought a few people responsible for carrying the captives, and the remaining troops were all here; Hu Wenzhi also stayed, saying that he was "responsible for leading the team", but in fact, Di Buyi took care of him, knowing that his martial arts skills were not good, and he was afraid that any chaotic fight would kill him later.
As for Wu Mingzi, no matter how paniced he felt in his heart, he did not show any flaws on his face. He kept following Murong and his son without saying a word, as if he was just a spectator.
After all, according to the accounts he had calculated before, he thought that even if the Poison Lord pointed out, he would not be able to confirm anything, so he was still ready to stretch it down.
Let’s talk about this group of people walking quickly to the backstage. When they passed the venue outside the ring halfway, many of the outfield spectators gathered around, talking and asking questions about their length and weakness.
It was not their fault... It was nearly half an hour before Huo Ming and Dugu Yong left the ring. Under Sun Huang's instruction, the Norwiski brothers were sitting on the commentary stage and chatting and joking.
Then let alone the audience is a little impatient, the people who brag are also scolding themselves.
"Don't panic, the next game will start soon! Give it first, let it go..." In the end, it was Sun Yixie who shouted a promise that he had never thought about being responsible, and then he opened a path.
When they successfully came to the backstage, the leaders behind them were not fuel-efficient. They were also asking what you were doing? Why did one of them carry in? Who is this?
The group did not answer, but after Murong Shu's comfort, they rushed to the medical tent.
At this time, Huang Donglai and the abbot were still guarding the door of the tent. In the tent, Huo Ming, who was still using his skills to help Dugu Sheng control poison, his forehead and temples were covered with fine beads of sweat, and it seemed that he could not hold on anymore...
As for Dugu Yong, although he was very worried about his father's condition, his own condition was not good - the "Soul Chasing the Underworld" only saved his life. However, his meridians did not completely recover after he returned to the yang, but only recovered to the point of "not being able to die". So not long after he got up, he had to sit down again to regulate his breathing and heal his wounds, while the Gao family father and daughter who dared not use their skills could only worry.
"Hiss...Di is still one step late!"
On the way he had just walked, Sun Yixie had already whispered to Di Buyi about the situation of Dugu and his son, so as soon as Di Buyi entered the tent, he started acting, showing off a chivalrous and tender heart, and was very concerned about the life and death of other colleagues.
"Gang Master Di?" Huo Ming was also a little surprised to see the leader of the Cao Gang suddenly appear.
"President Huo, please relax. The poisoned person has been captured by Di. I will let him explain the way to detoxify." Di Buyi said the lines of taking credit, while tearing open the cloth strips and wax seals on the face of the poisonous master in a few seconds.
"Hu..." The poisonous master, who was still hanging on the pole, took a breath. When he opened his eyes, he saw Huo Ming and Dugu Sheng at first sight, so he immediately sneered, "Hmph... Master Huo has really deep internal skills. Judging from your appearance, Dugu Sheng has been poisoned for a long time, right? You can still hold on."
The Poison Lord would say this, naturally because he knew the method of "others use their internal strength to protect the heart meridians of the poisoned person to force their lives to prolong their lives."
When Huo Ming heard this gloating speech, he did not show any anger. He just asked calmly: "Dare you ask me, yes?"
"It's easy to say." The Poison Lord replied, "The person who is known as the "Shadowless Poison Lord" in the martial arts world is here."
Although the Poison Lord has now become a prisoner, he is so arrogant when he speaks, because he also knows in his heart that if he deserves to die, he will die if he surrenders and begs for mercy. Then it is better to bet on the verge of the end.
"You used to suck the poison on Senior Dugu?" Huo Ming asked.
After asking this question, Wu Mingzi, who had been infiltrated with everyone, had already raised his heart to his throat.
"Not bad." The next second, the Poison Lord replied without thinking, "Someone hired me to take his life."
"Who?" Huo Ming said again.
When the word "who" came out, Wu Mingzi's heart could be said to be almost spit out of his mouth.
"Tell me, can I change my life?" But how could Poison Lord reveal such a key information so easily? He was going to bargain.
"This... I don't count if I say it alone." Huo Ming replied.
Even though Chief Huo is exhausted now, his speech is still very organized, and this kind of thing is indeed not something he can decide alone.
"Then you first figure out how many people you have to nod before you can count, and then come to me to ask?" The Poison Zun said in a fearless tone, "Anyway... I'm not in a hurry."
"Then if I ask..." Murong Shu interrupted again at this time, "How should the poison on Senior Dugu's body be relieved? I believe you will also say..."
"Hmph..." The Poison Lord took the other party's words, "I'm still the same sentence... I can change my life after saying it?"
"Everyone, I think he doesn't cry until he sees the coffin." Di Buyi wanted to show it again at this time, and he spoke sternly, "It's better for Di to help him loosen his muscles and bones first..."
"Oh~" Seeing this, Sun Yixie waved his hand immediately to stop Di Buyi, "Gang Master Di, you are impulsive... Look at his dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, you know that he is soft and not hard. Maybe the more you torture him, the more he will stop talking, or just make a bad move for you, and tell you a fake method. Before you die, you will harm the leader Huo and senior Dugu. Who can we argue with?"
Sun Yixie was still very accurate in grasping this bad attitude. When he said this, the poisonous master immediately burst into laughter and said, "Good boy, you have understood all my thoughts. It's well said, it's well said! Hahaha..."
Di Buyi looked at the arrogant look of Poison Lord. Even though he hated him, he could not take the initiative to publish the information that Hu Wenzhi told him, that is, "The person who instructed Poison Lord to kill Dugu Sheng was Wu Mingzi", because that exposed that he had known who Poison Lord wanted to harm, and just to make contributions, he deliberately made a "yellow bird behind".
Di Buyi can only follow the words "Actually, I have been tracking the man Wuying Poison Master, wanting to remove this damage for the martial arts world. Then I recently received information that he might appear in this "Jiangxiong Cup". I then secretly led the team here and set up this net, but I don't know if he will take action today, and who will harm him if he takes action."
Only in this way can he be morally blameless "coming one step later" but "save the day".
"I have a suggestion." Sun Yixie paused for a few seconds and then said, "Today, as long as this Poisonous Elder brother is willing to tell us how to detoxify, help us save senior Dugu's life, and then explain the mastermind who hired him, then we might as well let him go."
"What?" Di Buyi couldn't believe his ears when he heard this, "How can this work?"
"This is indeed inappropriate..." Huo Ming said, "but this seems to be our only choice right now."
After he finished speaking, everyone in the tent was silent for a moment.
These few dozen seconds were enough for everyone to understand the meaning of this sentence.
To put it bluntly, if you are a person like the Shadowless Poison Lord, even if he dies, he will not let you live a good life... Not to mention that there are still many people who are poisoned at the scene, even if only Dugu Sheng is the only one, if you continue to waste this, the final outcome is likely to be Dugu Sheng dies in front of the Poison Lord, and even if the Poison Lord dies, he will not tell you who the mastermind behind him is, and he does not do this because of loyalty, but to disgust you.
But if he reaches a deal with him, at least Dugu Sheng can survive, and any other poisoned people in the venue can be rescued. As for whether the mastermind he confessed later is true or false, we can discuss it later.
"It seems you have figured it out." After a while, the Poison Lord spoke first, as if he, the person who was stripped of only his shorts and hung up, had the initiative. "Haha... all the famous leaders and heroes... must be the masters of Yigong, so they won't turn against each other after I told the detoxification method and the mastermind?"
Huo Ming, Murong Shu, and Di Buyi didn't speak at this moment.
The abbot, Huang Donglai, Wu Mingzi, and the brothers of the Murong family did not speak.
With everyone's acquiescence, Sun Yixie finally said, "Are you satisfied? Then say it."
"Okay." The character of Poison Zun was also erratic. He was bad, but after reaching this agreement, he did tell the truth about the detoxification method. "The poison in Dugu Sheng is called 'Chengmai San', which is my unique secret recipe. To eliminate this poison, not only does it require an antidote, but also acupuncture points in a specific way to make the antidote work..."
Then, he reported the antidote and the method of using qigong to detoxify. The two doctors who had been waiting for the opportunity to pick up their pens and copy them. After copying, they went to the medicine cabinet next to them to grab and make them.
After reporting the news, the Poison Lord continued, "As for who instructed me about this, haha..." He said, and his eyes swept into the tent.
At this moment, Wu Mingzi's scalp was numb, and he could clearly feel the ill-intentioned look as Poison Lord's gaze swept across him.
"I think you can guess that those who can do this will never be a little person, because the little person does not have the courage and cannot ask me for help." The Poison Lord's words continued, "It will not be the so-called 'evil devil' you call it, because those people will do this by themselves if they want to do this. Instead, they do not need to use my hand to kill people like some hypocrites and conspirators in your right path..."
"That is to say... the one who hired you is a well-known figure in the world, right?" The abbot was a little impatient when he heard this. When he answered this, his light was glancing at Wu Mingzi.
