Chapter 209 They are from X
These masters usually think very highly of themselves. Yesterday they were entertained by Rakshasa and they were so entertained that they feel superior to others when they walk now.
So now they felt that they should also have a place in the internal exhibition area.
When the place was as noisy as a vegetable market, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door.
The Xuanmen masters subconsciously looked over and saw a row of bodyguards in black suits breaking in first. After quickly isolating them, they picked up the intercom and said: "The idlers have been eliminated and you can enter."
The masters were not happy to hear this.
"Hey, who are you talking about? Open your eyes and see..."
Before the man finished cursing, he saw the first old man walking in on the red carpet outside the door. His eyes widened instantly, "Lu Jiang!"
Lu Jiang.
This name successfully silenced a group of turbulent masters for a second, and even revealed a flattering smile on their faces.
There is no other reason.
The head of the Lu family, the King of Jade by the Yellow River, is a wealthy businessman who owns jade from the entire Yellow River. Who wouldn't want to be favored and appreciated by him?
After Lu Jiang came in from outside, he walked into the inner court surrounded by a team of bodyguards on crutches without even looking at him for a moment.
The masters were all embarrassed and could only hide their smiles, "So Mr. Lu was invited."
Then it's no wonder they are not allowed in.
Although wealthy families and Xuanmen belong to different fields, Xuanmen also has to rely on merchants to make a living, and giant merchants naturally look down on small sects like them.
But the matter was far from over. Just when everyone thought the embarrassment was over, another team of bodyguards rushed in and welcomed the second business tycoon with the same pomp, then the third, and the fourth...
They stopped when their legs were numb.
When he looked around again, every corner of the exhibition hall outside was already filled with bodyguards. They were all powerful and looked like well-trained practitioners.
The masters looked at each other and had no choice but to stand there obediently, not daring to give any advice, for fear that one of them would accidentally bump into the bodyguard and be beaten up.
"Why are there so many rich people here? Will there be any problem with us getting the golden bowl?" Someone began to discuss in a low voice with his companions worriedly.
But most of them still maintained an optimistic attitude and said confidently: "So what if the rich people have it? They have Xuanmen, the imperial capital, to control the situation. If they really want to rob it, they have to weigh their own weight."
Now they have their backs against the big tree to enjoy the shade, so they are not afraid.
After hearing this, the shaken person had just been calmed down when a group of people suddenly walked in from outside.
There were no bodyguards this time, only five people, three of whom were women. The other two men wore glasses, looked elegant and handsome, and carried briefcases in their hands. They looked ordinary.
"Who is this?"
"I don't know, they are all unfamiliar." A group of Xuanmen people looked at them for a long time and confirmed that they were not from wealthy families. They straightened their backs immediately. Seeing that they were all about to enter, they immediately walked over and stopped them, "You can't Get in!"
The leading young woman paused, glanced at the person in front of her with her beautiful eyebrows, and asked politely, "We have already communicated with the curator in advance, why not?"
Seeing the other party whispering softly, the Xuanmen people not only had no intention of giving in, but their attitude became more arrogant and domineering, "Can't we just wait outside without seeing us? Even if you are older, you want to go in."
If you can't beat the well-trained bodyguards, it's better to step on the heads of these weak chickens and show off your power to regain the lost face.
The group of people had the same idea, so they intensified their efforts.
"There's no room here, you go and wait at the door."
At this moment, the five people on the opposite side finally saw the clues.
The beautiful woman in the lead showed a polite smile and asked: "What if we don't want to?"
"Not willing?" The masters laughed collectively as if they had heard a big joke, and then their expressions changed, "Then don't blame us for being ruthless!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a Taoist priest took out a charm from his pocket, held it between his two fingers, and threw it at the woman.
This is a common thunderstorm talisman in Xuanmen. Because it is simple to practice and has little power, it can produce a small electric current when it is attached to a person's body and only needs a little stimulation. Generally, laymen are easily frightened, so Xuanmen people pretend to be masters outside, and use this trick. Tried and true.
But before this move could be used today, the Taoist priest who was swinging the talisman suddenly froze with his fingers in the air.
Seeing that he was motionless, the people next to him tried to shout, "Taoist Master Xuanji?"
"..."
No one responded.
At this time, everyone vaguely felt that something was wrong. The people nearby wanted to pat him on the shoulder, but they inadvertently caught a glimpse of the Taoist priest's face from the corner of their eyes, and screamed in fright.
"what!"
The man took a few steps back, bumping into the team behind him and also retreating.
When a space became available, everyone looked up and saw the Taoist priest falling straight backwards on the floor.
boom.
When he lay down, everyone saw the Taoist priest's face clearly, and couldn't help but step back a long distance.
At this time, the Taoist priest was lying on his back, still reaching out, his eyes were wide open and bloodshot, but his lips were black and purple, and his face was blue. It was obvious that he had been poisoned.
The ones who took action must be the five people he faced.
But the weirdest thing is that they were face to face just now, but they didn't see each other take action at all!
"Time is running out, let's go in." The beautiful woman opposite straightened her collar, then stepped forward as if nothing had happened, stepped over the Taoist priest on the ground, and walked forward.
At this time, the Xuanmen people dared not stop them, so they hurriedly made way for a passage. When the five people passed by, they stayed far away, fearing that they might be tricked accidentally.
"Hey, you guys..." Seeing that the five of them were about to disappear at the entrance to the infield, another Taoist priest shouted tremblingly. He waited for the others to stop again before he said, "We won't stop you. You have to... you have to keep the antidote, right?"
The person who spoke was Taoist Xuanji’s junior brother, who was wearing the same Taoist robe.
The senior brother has a high prestige in the mountain gate, and his skills are also the most powerful. He was sent out to participate in the swearing-in meeting this time, but he didn't expect that he would lie down before taking action.
This shocked him and he had to bite the bullet and ask for the antidote, otherwise he would not be able to return to his master to explain.
"Antidote?" The beautiful woman raised her eyebrows slightly, a smile suddenly appeared on her lips, and she nodded and said, "I'm sorry, people on the Poison Master List never deserve the antidote for poisoning."
what?
Before the little Taoist priest could react, the people around him exploded first.
"Poison Master List? They are X's people!"
I don't know who shouted, and the crowd suddenly dispersed, hiding as far as they could. Their faces were all pale, their lips were trembling, and they were filled with fear.
X Forum.
The most mysterious and powerful existence in the world's dark web, where professional masters and rich people from all walks of life gather together, offering bounties and auctions for murderous poisons... There is nothing you can't think of, and there is nothing you can't find.
The five-person group on this trip is X's review and appraisal team. Except for the beautiful woman at the head, the other four people are all poison masters, killers, weapons experts, and blasters ranked in the top ten on major lists.
