Miao Qi Miao
Chapter 1486 Prey and Hunter
Although the two were meeting for the first time, they seemed like old friends, without the slightest bit of unfamiliarity.
Yu Qingzhu stood up and personally poured a cup of wine for Lao Liu. "Brother Liu, please!"
"And the ladies as well!"
At first glance, Xia Mengying saw Gu worms swimming in the wine cup. Upon closer inspection, she discovered that what was swimming in the cup was a red phosphorus snake, no bigger than a toothpick.
Lao Liu, however, picked up the wine cup without a care and drank it in one gulp. "Good wine!"
Yu Qingzhu clapped his hands and laughed. "Brother Liu is indeed a delightful person."
"After drinking this cup of wine, within half a month, you will be able to roam freely in the Miao region. Apart from the natal golden silkworm cultivated by A Yao Duo, no Gu poison will dare to approach you within a meter."
Lao Liu smiled. "Brother Yu, I have a few things I don't quite understand, and I would like to ask Brother Yu to help me clear up my confusion."
Yu Qingzhu said with a smile, "Brother Liu, please speak. I will definitely answer everything I know without reservation."
Lao Liu said, "I want to know Brother Yu's position."
Yu Qingzhu said leisurely, "Once, I was willing to serve the Samsara Division because of Zhu Ziyan."
"I pride myself on being a wise man, but I couldn't get past the hurdle of love. I'm making a fool of myself in front of Brother Liu."
Lao Liu laughed. "Who hasn't had a period of infatuated love in their youth?"
Yu Qingzhu didn't want to dwell on this issue. "Let's put it this way! My obsession with Zhu Ziyan is half due to her, and half because of the Nine-Headed Serpent Jade on her body."
"The secret hidden within the Nine-Headed Serpent Jade is even greater than the Samsara Division."
"Of course, I'm afraid that Secret Lord Li himself will need to investigate this secret."
Yu Qingzhu changed the subject and said, "Later, I realized that the Samsara Division was not the righteous jianghu organization I had imagined, but a pawn in the hands of the Yi Tian Chess Master."
"I began to gradually dilute my position in the Samsara Division until I withdrew from the Samsara Division to form Wuxing."
"I was nominally helping the Samsara Division to explore secret realms, but in reality, I was looking for a way to escape."
Yu Qingzhu pointed to the table and said, "My way out is here."
Lao Liu said, "Brother Yu wants to use the Miao Jiang war to feign death and escape?"
"That's right!" Yu Qingzhu did not deny it. "Therefore, I still need Brother Liu's help."
Lao Liu looked at the empty venue and said, "If I'm not mistaken, there should be a group of masters from the Samsara Division lying in ambush here, right?"
Yu Qingzhu said, "If there is an ambush here, what would Brother Liu do?"
Lao Liu swept around the venue and said, "I would use myself as bait to lure out the Miao Jiang witches, and then use the plague to eliminate my opponents."
Yu Qingzhu nodded. "I thought the same as Brother Liu. However, I just didn't let them come out."
Yu Qingzhu clapped his hands in the air, and the surroundings of the wine table immediately changed to another scene of corpses lying all over the field.
Hundreds of corpses lay all over the venue, each with a狰狞 face and distorted limbs. Some even clenched their hands tightly in the soil, showing how painful and unwilling they were before they died!
Yu Qingzhu sat calmly in the venue where hundreds of people were wailing and struggling, pouring and drinking wine.
Yu Qingzhu waited for Lao Liu to turn his head before gently waving his hand to turn the venue back to its original empty appearance. "Drinking should be leisurely and contented in order to taste the wonders of it."
"Drinking and singing wildly while sitting in a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood is Secret Lord Li's character, but it's not suitable for you and me. That's why I hid those things that disturb the enjoyment of wine."
Lao Liu said, "It seems that Brother Yu also obtained the plague from Jing Henyun!"
"As a strategist, when I see something useful, of course, I have to collect one or two for future needs." Yu Qingzhu did not deny it, and at the same time asked Lao Liu, "If you were standing in my position, how do you think I would help Zhu Ziyan in her layout?"
Lao Liu knew that Yu Qingzhu was giving him a question.
Although Yu Qingzhu had already begun to arrange a way out, preparing to feign death and return to seclusion, this did not prevent him from competing with Lao Liu before he left.
This is like a peerless swordsman who may not covet the false name of being the best in the world, but if he fails to have a good fight with a swordsman of his level before sealing his sword and returning to seclusion, it will inevitably become a major regret in his jianghu career.
Yu Qingzhu's attitude towards Lao Liu is probably the same!
However, he chose the way of "armchair strategy," a way that did not hurt the peace, to compete with Lao Liu.
Lao Liu laughed and said, "Brother Yu, are you testing Liu? Well, Liu will make a fool of himself."
"Zhu Ziyan simultaneously led Liangjie Hall and the Feng family to Yan Yu Lou in Miao Jiang. The main purpose is not to wipe us out in one fell swoop, but to concentrate certain conditions to open a secret burial."
"Zhu Ziyan was able to be led to Miao Jiang, I'm afraid it was Brother Yu's doing, right?"
Yu Qingzhu nodded. "A small trick is not worth mentioning."
Lao Liu said, "Zhu Ziyan thinks she can control the situation, but she has fallen into the trap designed by Brother Yu. Soon, Zhu Ziyan will change from a hunter who lays out the plan to a prey being hunted."
"I think that time should be when the three of us gather at Yan Yu Lou, right?"
