Beauty and the Bodyguard

"It is indeed the real Nine-leaf Red Golden Ginseng, but it has been manipulated!"

Lin Yi lazily leaned against the rock wall with an inexplicable smile on his face: "Actually, something was wrong from the beginning. The aroma of the Nine-leaf Red Ginseng was too strong, and it actually took us away from such a distance. Attracted.”

"And there are no magical beasts guarding this kind of heavenly material and earthly treasure. This is even more strange! You must also feel that something is wrong, right? The process of obtaining the Nine-leaf Red Golden Ginseng is really easy!"

When Lin Yi said this, Huang Shanmao and others were really awe-inspiring. Indeed, the process of obtaining the Nine-leaf Red Ginseng this time was incredibly smooth. If their team had such good luck, they would have been able to wash their hands and become one party long ago. You are a rich man and you still take such risks!

It's just that they were all blinded by the Nine-leaf Red Ginseng at that time. Even if they thought of this, they would rationalize it in their hearts with good luck.

Looking back now, I realize that there was indeed something fishy about it!

"In addition, there is an almost imperceptible strange smell in the aroma of Nine-leaf Red Ginseng. My nose is particularly keen and I am particularly good at distinguishing medicinal materials, but I was not completely sure about this at the time."

Lin Yi lightly shrugged, spread his hands and said helplessly: "I am a low-key person in the team. Without evidence, I can only give you a little warning. Believe it or not, I can't influence your decision!"

"And to be honest, I just had suspicions at the time. I didn't dare to be really sure. Naturally, I didn't have the guts to stick to my own opinion. The final facts proved that my suspicions were correct!"

"The Nine-leaf Red Ginseng has indeed been manipulated. Another medicinal liquid has been injected into its interior. It is non-toxic in itself, but after being fused with the Nine-leaf Red Ginseng, it becomes highly poisonous!"

"There is no doubt that this is a well-designed conspiracy, and the target is our team! If the prediction is correct, the mastermind behind the scenes may have surrounded us outside the cave, waiting to hit us in one fell swoop!"

Huang Shanmao's expression changed. What Lin Yi said was reasonable. Nine-leaf red golden ginseng, such a precious treasure, was used as bait and injected with venom. The other party used it in a big way, so he naturally had a big goal!

There is no doubt that their team is the opponent's target. If they throw out the irresistible treasure Nine-leaf Red Golden Ginseng first, they might be able to provoke internal strife in the team and eliminate a group of enemies by killing each other first.

Huang Shanmao's team is relatively united and has not experienced such extreme situations, but in fact it doesn't matter whether there is internal strife and cannibalism, it is just incidental.

The most important thing is that the Nine-leaf Red Gold Ginseng itself is a treasure that can enhance strength, and Huang Shanmao's team just needs to increase their combat effectiveness as quickly as possible. It will hardly take too long before the Nine-leaf Red Gold Ginseng will be divided and eaten. Of.

The amount of Nine-leaf Red Ginseng is not too much, and it cannot be given to every member evenly, so the people who can take Nine-leaf Red Ginseng must be the most important and powerful ones in the team.

If the plan goes well, the strong ones in Huang Shanmao's team will be wiped out in one fell swoop, and the remaining weak ones will naturally be no threat!

Huang Shanmao can become the captain of the adventure team, so he is certainly not an idiot. After he figured out these key points, his expression changed rapidly, and he was filled with fear.

If Lin Yi hadn't warned him in advance, Huang Shanmao and others might actually have taken the poisonous Nine-leaf Red Ginseng together instead of doing it in batches and letting Lao Liu try it alone!

When the five earth-opening warriors are poisoned, Sima Zhongda may not be able to treat them in time. The chance of the entire team being wiped out is really high!

"Damn it! Who on earth actually put so much effort into designing and arranging such a sinister plan to target us!"

Huang Shanmao gritted his teeth with a ferocious look on his face: "If I find him, I will cut him into pieces and execute him in Ling Chi! Otherwise, it will be difficult to understand the hatred in my heart!"

"Boss Huang, although what Sima Zhongda said makes sense, this conspiracy may not be against us, right? When we came out of Meteorite Town, no trace of our enemies was found. It is impossible for someone to get ahead of us and plan an ambush for us, right? "

Jin Ziduo glanced at Lin Yi with some suspicion: "Besides, the Nine-leaf Red Golden Ginseng is such a precious thing. Our enemies really want to deal with us, so a direct ambush and sneak attack would be more in line with their behavior, right?"

"Who is so generous about using such precious nine-leaf red golden ginseng as poison bait? With such financial resources, wouldn't it be nice for them to take it themselves to increase their combat effectiveness and then sneak attack us?"

Huang Shanmao heard that it made sense. If he thought about it from his perspective, if he had the Nine-leaf Red Ginseng, he would never use it as bait to deceive his enemies.

If you can do it yourself, why spend so much money?

It is obviously more cost-effective to improve your own strength level!

Before he could figure this out, Lao Liu finally made some noise. His face was still pale, but his brows were relaxed and he was no longer as painful as before.

With a slight groan, Lao Liu slowly opened his eyes, looking at the top of the cave with a slightly dazed look. After thinking for a while, he gradually realized what was going on.

"Lao Liu, you're awake! It's great!"

Jin Ziduo put aside the question of Nine-leaf Red Ginseng and looked ecstatic.

It is not certain whether he is really so happy, but as the vice-captain, it is obviously beneficial to have a good relationship with the only alchemist in the team, so although his expression is a little exaggerated, it is still sincere.

Huang Shanmao also came over and expressed his condolences happily. Other team members also gathered around to say hello to Lao Liu.

No matter what they think, at least on the surface, this adventure team seems to be relatively united.

Lin Yi was still sitting where he was, with no intention of leaning in to show his affinity, and there was a hint of sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth.

After Lao Liu received a round of condolences and figured out the ins and outs of the matter, he was very surprised by Lin Yi's methods and struggled to get up to thank Lin Yi.

"Sima Zhongda, I really want to thank you this time! If it hadn't been for your timely help, I would have definitely died! I cannot thank you enough for your kindness. I will do my best to help you wherever I can be useful in the future. Under the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​fire, I will not hesitate!"

Lao Liu thanked Lin Yi solemnly, and Huang Shanmao also expressed his gratitude, expressing his gratitude to the important members of Lin Yi's rescue team.

Lin Yi waved his hand and interrupted them casually: "Let's not mention these trivial matters for now! Boss Huang, don't you think we are in danger now? Since the other party has arranged such a meticulous conspiracy, how could there be no follow-up plan to follow up? "
