NOVEL NEXT Chapter 65: Gelsemium Poison
Entering the Moon Palace is more meaningful than Zhou Yuan imagined.
As soon as day broke, Captain Jing'an arranged for his bodyguard Jiang Yong to lead the Xiaoqi camp with one hundred soldiers.
Escorting the medicine pestle, medicine jar, and two square-hole coins as big as a washbasin, they rushed to the Huaizhou camp.
"Zhou Yuan, Yue Palace gave copper coins to the robe. Although it can deepen the friendship and exchange for some benefits, there are many people talking about it, so the news will inevitably leak out.
Therefore, you still have to donate some of your profits to the Governor of Huaizhou, so that everyone can enjoy the happiness and happiness together. "
"Sir Captain, I am lucky enough to enter the secret realm of the Moon Palace. It is worth it. I am not happy to keep a few foreign things. It is better to give them to my colleagues and share the joy."
"Okay, that's enough if you have this intention. Don't worry, I won't let you down.
I asked Jiang Yong to bring along the documents of your achievements in attacking the secret realm during this period.
If nothing else, after the Governor of Huaizhou receives the rare artifact from the Moon Palace, it’s time for you to be promoted. "
Originally, according to the tradition of the Wei Dynasty, children of non-honorable families would not be promoted consecutively. After obtaining an official position, there would be a stable period for each promotion.
However, special treatment can also be given in special situations. For example, if you have sufficient merit and extraordinary talent, and you give some strange things, the Shangguan will naturally act impartially.
In order to express his gratitude, Zhou Yuan gave the remaining medicine pestle to Captain Jing'an.
Although Lieutenant Jing'an said it was inappropriate, he happily took away the two-meter-high white jade pestle after several attempts to avoid it.
He also said that the Jade Rabbit Medicine Pestle and the Golden Toad Copper Coin should be placed in the Government Hall of the Colonel's Mansion to nourish the military fort's wealth and longevity.
At this point, Zhou Yuan only had one golden toad copper coin in his hand as a souvenir.
For this reason, the magic armers also borrowed the molds one after another, saying that they wanted to pour a few golden toad copper coins with copper juice, so that they could also be placed at home to attract wealth.
The same goes for Xuan Jiashi, but what they chose to borrow was the golden toad copper coin that Zhou Yuan gave to Cai Cheng.
Due to the large number of Xuanjia soldiers, Cai Cheng had to urge his subordinates to pay back the money every time after attacking the secret realm, and then lend the golden toad copper coins to other soldiers.
In the days after the Water Moon Festival, the interior of the military fort and Jing'an City were both stable.
Zhou Yuan also got some free time, and continued to clear the dungeons in the camp with the team. He successfully activated the 'Jade Rabbit Pounding Medicine Technique' and reached the full level.
Since there was no shortage of restorative medicine, he gave priority to extracting a bottle of venom, intending to enchant the cone-headed arrows produced in the copy.
The source material is Gelsemium elegans, also known as poison hemlock, which is in stock in the camp.
After squeezing it with the full-level ‘Jade Rabbit Pounding Medicine Technique’, Zhou Yuan obtained a bottle of turquoise transparent liquid.
[Drug: Gelsemium venom]
[Introduction: Slightly sweet, warm in nature, and highly toxic. It is extracted by pounding medicine. It is highly toxic and has no medical effect. It can be used to poison weapons.]
[Effect: After hitting the target, different degrees of 'poisoning' status will be superimposed according to different measurement sizes, causing the target to continue to lose blood and trigger a weakening effect]
Since quenching poison on arrows is also a skill, simply soaking the arrows will not allow much venom to attach to them.
Therefore, Zhou Yuan went to the Metallurgical Department of the camp and found a professional arrow quencher to help poison the arrows.
After hearing his request, the craftsman's eyes immediately lit up, as if he finally understood.
"Uncle Zhou Dub, I am not boasting, our skills and shooters are a perfect match.
If the archer's arrows are not quenched with poison, it is like the swordsman's sword that is not sharpened. "
"There are only two quenching methods commonly used in the camp, one is the adhesion and smear method, and the other is the high-temperature quenching method.
This batch of arrows are of the same size, and the arrow shafts and feathers are all of the best quality. They cannot be heated at high temperatures or quenched in venom. "
"I recommend you use the attachment method. In order to attach more venom, you can soak the arrowhead in water and place it in a cool place to allow it to develop a thin layer of red rust.
Then soak it in the venom and dry it in the shade. If you keep it, one arrow will kill the immortal. "
"According to what the master craftsman said, I will leave these arrows to the master craftsman for disposal. I will give you a generous reward after they are cured."
"Okay, I will definitely return you a batch of weapons for killing."
Zhou Yuan gave the arrow hardener 3 pots of arrows, each with 60 arrows, for a total of 180 arrows.
After these arrows exploded from Niutou Village are poisoned, they will become a powerful weapon to suppress the life of flesh and blood.
There is no secret about the large-scale improvement of weapons by the generals in the camp.
Not long after Zhou Yuan requested that the arrows be poisoned, Captain Jing'an received the news.
He recalled Zhou Yuan's precise and swift archery skills, and had to admit that poisoning arrows was one of the best ways for Zhou Yuan to improve his strength in the short term.
Therefore, not only did he not ask too much, but he ordered the Military Supplies Department to exchange the Yuegong Medicine Pestle and Copper Coins in return for a batch of blood evil arrows.
When Zhou Yuan got the arrows back again, the cone-headed arrows exploded in the Niutou Village copy had already changed to another name.
[Weapon: Rusty poison-condensed arrow]
[Introduction: The arrows are lightly rusted and the gaps are soaked in Gelsemium, which superimposes the poisoning state on the target, and has a certain chance of causing the infection state. 】
Good guy, this modification is different, ordinary cone-headed arrows can also make a difference.
In view of this, Zhou Yuan extracted a batch of poisonous weeds such as Salmonia sibirica, Gelsemium elegans, and Ricinus communis from the military supply department, intending to squeeze out a batch of mixed poisons.
This move sent chills down the spines of the generals in the camp, and they all wondered where the hot-blooded young man had gone and why he suddenly became interested in poisons.
"Lord Captain, Zhou Yuan has either been killing or on the way to kill since he entered the camp, so his mentality will inevitably be a little extreme.
It would be better to take advantage of the county warrior's return to the local area and let him lead some soldiers to the local area to deal with the banditry. "
"That's good. There is a big difference between leading troops and fighting alone. Let him become a famous general, and he can also change his mentality of fighting alone.
There are many pirate attacks in Chongyu County, so let him go back with Hu Hua, the county lieutenant of Chongyu."
"It just so happens that Hu Hua, the county lieutenant of Chongyu, is injured and can't patrol the shore, so let Zhou Yuan kill the pirates and let them know the power of our Wei."
Zhou Yuan didn't know that in order to prevent him from going astray and becoming a poison master in the camp, the Jing'an school lieutenant was going to assign him troops and make him a general officer.
When he learned about the proposal to command troops, it was at his promotion dinner.
After receiving the gift, the governor of Huaizhou chose to protect his subordinates and act impartially. The governor's seal was stamped and Zhou Yuan was promoted to the governor of Jing'an Qu.
In this way, Zhou Yuan was only one level away from Cai Cheng's military Sima. This promotion speed made the local nobles a little ashamed.
At the end of the promotion dinner, warriors from various subordinate counties took the opportunity to return the gift of Yuegong copper coins, and each gave Zhou Yuan three portions of Yuzhen Powder.
Captain Jing'an not only gave six portions, but also a large pot of blood evil arrows, a total of 60.
It was at this time that Captain Jing'an talked about leading troops into Chongyu County.
Zhou Yuan thought about going to Chongyu County to refresh the new copy, so he did not refuse and agreed directly.
"Zhou Yuan, Chongyu County is close to Quhe River, which flows into the sea. Thieves often drive boats into the riverside and rob.
When you go to Chongyu County this time, ask the county lieutenant Hu Hua for advice and learn some methods of defending the place and suppressing the pirates.
If you go to a place in the future, these methods will still be useful, otherwise you will inevitably be overwhelmed and unable to fulfill your duty of guarding the place."
"Thank you for your support, Lieutenant. Yuan Ding is sincere in seeking advice and is not arrogant and reckless."
