Pagoda Immortality

Chapter 675: The Book of All Poisons

"Qualifications? What qualifications?"

Lu Li looked at the old man with confusion, wondering what kind of treasures he needed to possess like the Longxuan Chamber of Commerce?

The old man smiled faintly, turned around and walked to a nearby doorway, "Fellow Taoist, follow me."

With that said, he walked in first.

Seeing this, Lu Li hesitated a little and followed in. When he got inside, he discovered that behind it was a stone staircase going downwards. There was a stone door at the first turn of the stone steps.

The old man stretched out his hand to push open the stone door and called Lu Li to go in. It turned out that there was a small small room behind the door. After seeing Lu Li come in, the old man explained:

"Guests, don't be surprised. Our host here is personally hosting the third floor. In order to prevent being disturbed for no reason, she requires that guests entering the third floor must prove that they possess no less than 50,000 medium-grade spiritual stones, or treasures of equivalent value..." .”

"So that's it."

Lu Li nodded, secretly put 50,000 medium-grade spiritual stones into a storage bag, and handed them to the old man in front of him, "Let's take a look."

This person was just a foundation-builder, so he wasn't worried about the other person running away with the spirit stone.

"Sorry, guest please."

The old man glanced at it and returned the storage bag to Lu Li, and then took Lu Li downstairs. On the way, they passed a trading hall, but there were far fewer people down here. Lu Li took a casual look. Just a dozen or so people.

The two of them did not stop here, but got into a doorway and continued walking down. After a while, they arrived at the bottom space. There were no shelves here anymore, just a circular space with a radius of ten feet.

There was nothing inside except a round table and a few round stools.

The old man asked Lu Li to sit down and wait. Then he walked to the only stone door nearby and gently pressed the button. Not long after, a plump yellow-robed woman walked out of it.

The pointed face is painted with pink eyeliner, which is quite charming.

When she saw Lu Li sitting at the table, she knew what was going on without even thinking about it. She nodded to the old man and said, "Go and do your work. Just leave this to me."

The old man said yes respectfully and left here without saying a word.

The woman smiled slightly, walked towards Lu Li, sat opposite Lu Li, raised one jade leg and said coquettishly, "What do you call the guest?"

"The last name is Zhang."

"Oh, it turns out to be Fellow Daoist Zhang. I wonder, what kind of treasure does Fellow Daoist Zhang want to buy?" the woman asked with an undiminished smile.

Lu Li tapped his fingers lightly on the table and said calmly, "I need a poison that can make people temporarily incapacitated after eating it. It is colorless and odorless and cannot be easily detected. I wonder, fellow Taoist, do you have it here?"

After hearing this, the woman couldn't help but stiffen her face, but she quickly recovered her composure and said with a sweet smile:

"We have several kinds of poisons here, but judging from the cultivation of fellow Taoists, they must not be used to deal with ordinary people. In this case, these poisons must not be able to get into the eyes of fellow Taoists..."

"Okay, excuse me."

Hearing what the other party said, Lu Li was secretly disappointed. It seemed that this trip was in vain again. He had encountered this kind of thing several times, with the same result.

It is almost impossible for any elixir with a bit of poison in it to be colorless and odorless. On the contrary, it is easier to be colorless and odorless for those cheap things that are so common that even mortals can study them.

However, this was obviously not what Lu Li wanted.

"Hey! Don't leave in a hurry."

Seeing that Lu Li was about to leave after a disagreement, the woman quickly said, "Although I don't have any ready-made poison here, I do have a good thing. Fellow Taoist, you might as well take a look. Maybe there is something you want on it?"

Lu Li was stunned for a moment, then sat back and said, "What good thing?"

"Wait a moment, I'll be back soon."

Seeing Lu Li sitting down, the woman stood up, swung her fat hips and walked towards the stone room on the side. After a while, she came back holding a dusty book-like thing.

Putting it in front of Lu Li, "Let's take a look. Many years ago, our seniors from Jubaozhai accidentally acquired this book. Because this book goes against justice and morality, we don't dare to sell it openly, so No one is interested in it until now. Although it is a treasure book, if fellow Taoists like it, the price can be easily negotiated..."

While the woman was chattering, Lu Li had already opened the dusty book and started reading it. The words 'Ten Thousand Poisons Book' written on the cover made him very interested in this book.

After flipping through it for a while, Lu Li discovered that the book was actually about the pharmacology of medicinal materials, poisons, and other knowledge. There were no less than a thousand poisons listed in it, as well as some that didn't look like poisons, but turned out to be strange poisons when combined. The incomparable medicinal materials surprised and delighted Lu Li.

For him, this was a timely help. With this kind of combination poison, he didn't have to worry about Lin Xunyan discovering anything unusual.

However, there were too many things mentioned above, and Lu Li couldn't read it in detail here. He just glanced through it briefly and put the book back on the table and said calmly:

"Although this book is not as practical as the finished elixir, the knowledge in it does interest me. Please give me a price."

Seeing that Lu Li was so calm, the woman couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. She rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Fellow Taoist is destined to have this thing. I'm also a real person, so I won't call out the price. The price is one hundred and fifty thousand mid-grade spiritual stones!" "

cough! ! !

When Lu Li heard this, he was almost choked to death by the other party's words, "Fellow Daoist, can you please speak properly?"

"Fellow Daoist, you don't think 500,000 is too expensive, right? This is a rare treasure that is hard to come by. If such a treasure book is sold openly, let alone 500,000, even a million will be wanted by many people."

The woman did not give in, but praised the treasure book wildly.

After hearing what the other party said, Lu Li immediately showed a lack of expression, "Since fellow Daoist is not sincere in selling, forget it, I'll continue to buy my poison pills more practically."

As he said this, he pretended to leave.

Seeing this, the woman stood up quickly, "Don't be in a hurry to leave, tell me, name a price! As long as it's not too outrageous, I'll sell it to you at a loss just to make a good relationship with you today."

Lu Li turned around and looked at the woman, and raised his middle finger, "One hundred thousand, I don't want any more."

"One hundred thousand, fellow Taoist, you... OK, OK! I'll sell it, it's OK, give me the money!"

The woman wanted to raise the price a little bit, but seeing that Lu Li left as soon as he said, she quickly grabbed the "Ten Thousand Poisons Treasure Book" and chased after him, grabbing Lu Li's arm and stuffing the treasure book into his arms.

Such a style really made Lu Li doubt whether he had bargained too much.

However, this treasure book is really good, especially for him now. It is too important. After thinking about it, he did not regret it. He divided 100,000 spirit stones into the storage bag and handed it to the woman, saying seriously:

"I don't want the news that this book fell into my hands to be known by a third person, otherwise..."
