The prince is very fierce

Qinzhou Yulongling is located between mountains. There were originally residents. However, a large area of ​​miasma suddenly appeared near Yulongling sixty years ago. It gathered in the mountains all year round. The people gradually moved away and it slowly became a deserted place with few people. Only brave hunters and herbal farmers occasionally came here.

In late autumn, the ancient trees around Yulongling blocked the sky and the sun, and the mist was filled below. Even on sunny days, visibility was very low.

In the depths of the dense forest, Sikong Zhi used a vine cane to bypass the traps and came to a stone cave below Yulongling.

The stone cave seemed to be naturally formed, and there were many poisonous scorpions wandering inside. Even if ordinary people saw it, they would definitely not dare to set foot.

Sikong Zhi used the cane to sweep away the scorpions blocking the way and tapped the stone wall twice. In a moment, a huge stone leaning against the corner of the stone cave slowly moved away, revealing a passage.

Deep in the deep passage, the lights were as bright as day. A underground palace was at the end of the field of vision. People in black robes were walking in it. The sounds of pounding and grinding medicine were endless. There were also various poisonous creatures wandering in it. There was a deep pit on the side, in which no less than 10,000 poisonous snakes were raised. There were also many coolies with shackles, who were forced to do various heavy work like zombies.

In Qinzhou, it is said that a thousand years ago, an emperor's tomb was built here. The Nanyue court also searched for it several times, but unfortunately it was never found. Until Jiazi years ago, the Hundred Insects Valley, which had been passed down for hundreds of years, was burned down by Dayue. The remaining dozen core disciples fled into the mountains and accidentally discovered this place, and used it as a refuge.

At that time, the Hundred Insects Valley was the most underestimated in history. Sikong Zhi and Zhou Qin were also born in this tomb at that time. At that time, there were only a dozen elders around them. They were hidden deep underground and never saw the sun. Before the age of three, they didn't even know that there was daytime in the world.

Fortunately, after nearly sixty years of recuperation, the Hundred Insects Valley has finally made some progress. The original imperial mausoleum has been slowly transformed into its current size, and the dozen disciples at that time have also grown to nearly a thousand people, most of whom are hiding in various places in South Vietnam.

However, this is still far from the tens of thousands of disciples in the heyday of the Hundred Insects Valley. You must know that the Hundred Insects Valley was the state religion of the Baiyue countries back then, and it could even compete with the Central Plains in the martial arts world. What about Wudang, Longhu, Cao Family, and Lu Family? When they came to the Baiyue land, who dared not give face to the Hundred Insects Valley?

Sikong Zhi had heard about the past glory from his father's mouth, but he had never seen it with his own eyes. However, the development of the Hundred Insects Valley to its current appearance in the hands of him and Zhou Qin was already a great sense of accomplishment.

Moreover, the tragedy before the Jiazi year also reminded the elders of the Hundred Insects Valley that no matter how powerful the Jianghu is, it is not greater than the imperial power. It is unrealistic to rely on poison to prosper forever. The only family that can last for a thousand years is the aristocratic family.

It was from that time that the Hundred Insects Valley changed its direction and stopped mixing in the Jianghu.

Shangguan Qinhe, the direct descendant of the master of the Hundred Insects Valley, was secretly taken away when he was three or four years old. He became the youngest son of a family surnamed Zhou. He used the pseudonym "Zhou Qin" to study and learn to read and take the imperial examination. He became a small county magistrate in a remote place and slowly accumulated his resume.

After sending Concubine Zhou to the palace, the Hundred Insects Valley also managed various relationships and eliminated political enemies. It took more than 20 years to gradually control the court of Nanyue.

Next, as long as Chen Ju succeeded to the throne, the Hundred Insects Valley could change its identity and reappear in another form, and then officially start playing the chess of the world.

But if you want to play chess, you must first have chess pieces.

Even if the Hundred Insects Valley controls the entire South Vietnam, it is nothing but a weakling in front of the world. In order to prevent being killed by Dayue as soon as it appears, it has to control a stronger chess piece.

At this time, the Xu family usurped the country and occupied Guanzhong, Dayue was divided into two, and Xu Buling's woman happened to be from South Vietnam.

Then things are simple. As long as Xu Buling is brought over and controlled, he can peacefully encroach on the surrounding areas. Xu Buling doesn't need to do anything, as long as he doesn't order the use of troops against South Vietnam.

As long as South Vietnam is given a few more years to mobilize troops, relying on the various poison techniques of the Hundred Insects Valley, not to mention unifying the world, occupying the south, and forming a four-nation tripod with Dongyue, Xiyue, and Beiqi, there is still no problem, maybe it is stronger than Dongyue composed of the four kings in the east.

It's just that the idea is very beautiful, but it is very troublesome to actually operate it.

Xu Buling is too cunning.

Sikong Zhi was still troubled by this matter. If he could not poison Xu Buling, then the Hundred Insects Valley would have no way to deal with Xu Buling. Now he could only hope that Xu Buling would take the initiative to attack, find the whereabouts of the five hostages, and fall into the trap.

Sikong Zhi leaned on his rattan stick, walked through the deep tomb passage, and came to the intricate huge underground cave.

Gu Ling, the third elder of the Hundred Insects Valley, walked over quickly and asked:

"Second brother, why are you back? Have you finished the matter in the capital?"

Sikong Zhi took off his cloak, handed it to his disciple, and shook his head:

"I came back to wait for the rabbit. Where are the five people I caught now?"

There are too many poisonous substances in the underground cave, and it never sees the sun all year round. Living in it will inevitably be affected.

The third elder Gu Ling is also like Sikong Zhi, with sparse hair and wrinkled face, looking very old. He raised his hand and pointed at several wooden cages on the stone wall in the distance:

"They are locked up there, but they are all ordinary people with no foundation. They couldn't stand the cold in the cave and fell ill. I treated them in case they would be useful in the future, but the old woman is too old and she probably won't live for a few more days."

Sikong Zhi raised his hand slightly: "It doesn't matter if she lives or dies, as long as she is alive. How is the Crazy King Gu?"

South Vietnam's military strength is inferior to that of Northern Qi and Dayue. They have been suppressed by Dayue for sixty years. It is difficult to fight against Dayue's army head-on. They can only find ways to resort to evil ways, and the mad king can make the army blow up camps and kill each other. Gu is naturally the best choice.

It's just that Mad King Gu has such a great reputation. It was because of this thing that Bai Chong Valley suffered a disaster. If it was just a poison like Locking Dragon Gu that could be used to deal with martial arts masters, Emperor Xiaozong of Dayue would not be interested in digging three holes in the ground. Chi, wipe out a South Vietnamese Jianghu force.

Back then, Hundred Insect Valley was burned to the ground, and the disciples were almost killed. Although the remaining disciples rescued many sect treasures, the Mad King Gu could not be saved, and even the method of raising it was lost. Sikong Zhi spent most of his life trying to find ways to restore Mad King Gu, but unfortunately the results were never satisfactory.

Gu Ling also had a somewhat sad look on his face and took Sikong Zhi to a dungeon behind the underground palace.

The dungeon has hundreds of cells, each containing a prisoner and even a few war horses.

At this time, most of the people captured secretly had dull eyes, and the rest were banging their heads against the wall, laughing, etc. They were definitely crazy, but they were obviously not lethal.

"The Crazy King Gu I raised the year before last is considered to be the best in appearance. However, a few of the people who were infected by the poison died violently due to self-mutilation. Most of them were crazy but not vicious. The few who went around killing people were very quick. It is dead and difficult to spread. According to the book, the mad king's poison cannot kill people, and the madness of those infected can last for several days until exhaustion. What we have done now is too far from our ancestors. "

"well……"

Sikongzhi had nothing to do about it. It would take a year or two to raise Gu. Without any examples to refer to, it was basically like endless trial and error. The gods never knew when they would get it right. He thought for a while:

"It can drive people crazy, and it can also paralyze military formations. Let the disciples seize the time to raise poison to collect venom. When fighting, throwing a trebuchet on the city wall can always help break the city and repel the enemy."

Gu Ling thought for a while: "The trebuchet... I have never used it like this. It costs a lot, and I don't know how effective it is..."

"With the support of South Vietnam's national strength, you don't have to worry about the cost, just go ahead and do it."

"good……"
