Song of Adolescence
Chapter 257: Everything has its price
After Jincuo docked, the two snakeheads in black robes and the snake catchers recruited from the harbor took the lead to get off the ship. They all put on tight-fitting leather jackets inside and black robes on the outside. , With an iron mask on his face, extremely tightly protected.
"Is the golden thread snake so poisonous?" Lei Wujie was puzzled.
Tang Lian nodded: "If you are bitten by a golden thread snake, then you can probably live a cup of tea. The golden thread snake we saw on the shore has been domesticated, and most of the toxin has faded, but if Ordinary people will faint on the spot if they are bitten."
Lei Wujie sighed, "Since it's so poisonous, let these people go out to take risks. They just prepare a dose of medicinal materials so that a person can... Uh, can..."
"People die for money, and birds die for food. They also took gold, and they also knew the risks involved." Seeing Lei Wujie couldn't go on, Xiao Se interjected lazily.
"Brother Lei is talking about me being rich and unkind?" Mu Chunfeng smiled, "For my own sake, I will not hesitate to pay for these people's lives."
After spending so many days together, Lei Wujie naturally understood Mu Chunfeng's character and knew that he was not such a person, but after thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the same thing, and for a while, he didn't know what to say.
"But you can see that the gold I gave is something that they have not earned for decades after fishing. With this gold, some fishermen who help others can own a fishing boat of their own. The fishermen's families who are still unmarried can finally pay the expensive bride price. They know the risks involved, but they are still rushing to take over this errand one by one. Do you know why this is?" Mu Chunfeng said lightly.
"Why?" Lei Wujie asked very cooperatively.
"Because everything has its price." At this moment, Mu Chunfeng suddenly became a bit like the son of the Mu family in Qingzhou. "Our Mu family believes in this rule, so I came personally. No one can be here. To ensure absolute safety away from the sea, this is the price we paid!"
Xiao Se suddenly said, "Actually, I think you are quite suitable to inherit the Mu family."
"It doesn't matter whether you inherit the Mu family or not. The important thing is to help your eldest brother find Spring." Mu Chunfeng suddenly turned around and carried the medical box, "And with me, no one can die."
Xiao Se and the others immediately followed. The snake catchers had dispersed on the island, but the scene on the island was different from Lei Wujie's imagination. At first glance, this is always a very ordinary island, with prosperous flowers and trees, birds and beasts singing together, which is different from the snake island that he imagined to be covered with golden snakes. Mu Chunfeng seemed to see through his question: "Even if the Golden Snake Island is the island with the most golden snakes, it will not be all over the island. It will naturally take some time to find it."
Two hours passed, and the crowd didn't see a golden thread snake after turning for a long time, so they found a shady place to sit down and drink water to rest. A snake head in a black robe suddenly appeared beside them: "The son."
Mu Chunfeng drank some water and asked, "How many are there?"
"Thirty." The snake head replied.
"No one was injured?" Mu Chunfeng asked again.
"The snake catching suit designed by the son is very strict. No one has been injured yet. If he is injured, he will send a signal to ask the son to come over." The snake head replied respectfully. It is not just flattering, or the snake catching suit really works.
Mu Chunfeng smiled: "Go ahead."
Seeing that the snake's head is gone, Xiao Se asked, "How many golden thread snakes are you going to catch this time?"
"If you want to make that medicine, of course only a few golden snakes are enough. But in order to make up the cost of this voyage, at least two hundred are enough." Mu Chunfeng said lightly.
Tang Lian was surprised: "Two hundred golden thread snakes? If you extract all the venom of two hundred golden thread snakes, you can poison people in a city."
"We are not interested in poisoning, but the snake gall and snake venom of the golden thread snake are good things. To enter the deep sea, a lot of money is stuffed into the government. The Mu family does not make a loss-making business, so this time they recruited so many snake catchers. It was mainly for this," Mu Chunfeng said.
Xiao Se shook his head: "The speed is too slow now. I can't wait."
Mu Chunfeng glanced at Xiao Se and naturally understood what he was saying: "Indeed, with my medical skills, I can't wait any longer. I can borrow your boat, and you will go east directly, and you agree to still count."
"No." Xiao Se shook his head, "You just said that everything has its price."
Mu Chunfeng smiled and drank again, noncommittal.
"Brother, pay the boat fare." Xiao Se also drank.
Tang Lian nodded, took out a bag of powder from her arms and waved it violently. The scattered powder circled the crowd. The powder seemed to choke his nose. Sikong Qianluo coughed and complained: "Big brother, What are you missing, choking to death!"
Lei Wujie, who is familiar with gunpowder, recognized it immediately; "Sulfur?"
Tang Lian immediately took out another stick of incense from her arms, leaned over and inserted the stick into the soil, and then gently twisted her hand, and the stick immediately ignited. There was a faint fragrance, but mixed with a strange rancid smell, and the few people sitting there couldn't help frowning.
"What is this again?" Sikong Qianluo asked.
Tang Lian stood up: "This is the smell of rot, and all the poisons in the world can't refuse its taste." His words are absolute, but they are absolutely convincing, because regarding the use of poison, except for the well-established Wen family, Tangmen is the best.
After a while, Xixi Suosuo's voice came around. Everyone hurriedly looked around, but saw that the grass was full of golden snakes, and the branches were also covered with long snakes. They all curled up, spitting out the snake letter, and stared at the crowd, but seemed to be afraid of the ring of sulfur. Not dare to move forward.
"How many hidden weapons of Tang Sect do you have?" Xiao Se asked.
Tang Lian shrugged: "I haven't counted them, but there are many."
"Use it just before returning to Beili, and it's over." Xiao Se said quietly.
Tang Lian nodded. With a movement, he had already walked out of the circle. His figure swiftly shuttled, the silver light in his hand kept flashing, and the leaping golden thread snakes quickly fell down again.
Lei Wujie carried the sword and was about to go out, but was stopped by Xiao Se: "When you draw the sword, the golden thread snake will have to be cut off by your laziness. People want to take snake gall, not stew snake meat."
Lei Wujie raised his eyebrows: "Why not eat snake soup at night?"
Sikong Qianluo immediately made a vomiting expression.
When the rot incense burned halfway, Tang Lian returned to everyone's eyes, leaned down and pinched the incense, and said lightly: "Enough. Let people clean it up."
Xiao Se nodded, and followed Tang Lian to the boat with Lei Wujie and Sikong Qianluo casually. Looking at their backs, Mu Chunfeng suddenly thought that on the streets of Qingzhou, the vulgar vendors would always scold the nobles carefully and privately.
"Smelly awesome."
