C277 A Cloud Piercing Arrow

Hearing that Xiao Wen didn't have any reverence for his ability and instead had a disdainful look on his face, he was stunned for a moment before revealing an astonished expression.

Obviously, he didn't understand why Xiao Wen would look down on his treasure.

However, he still said, "As expected! Daxing Cheng is a man with great ambition and great revenge. This old man is ashamed. However, even you have to admit that I, as a pawn, am still of some use! "

"It's insignificant!" Although Xiao Wen didn't use vulgarities, he still used extremely hurtful words. Hearing Xiao Wen's words, the official let out a sigh and said: "Daxing Cheng, aren't you curious about how we managed to make these people listen to us obediently?"

"If it were me, I would use the power of a powerful country, the threat of the destruction of a nation, and the temptation of great profits to make these people listen to me."

Hearing them say this, the official in charge of this order revealed a strange expression.

Although he didn't think that there was anything wrong with his plan, he had a feeling that it was possible for Xiao Wen to say it out loud.

And this, is also a way that a large country should have.

Vaguely, this order seemed to have a feeling that his faith was shaken.

He only felt that the matter that he'd persisted in for so many years was actually so insignificant in the eyes of others.

However, he had already set up the trap and was unable to turn back.

He knew that if he turned back, his underling, who had betrayed him due to Xiao Wen's arrival, would most likely be a decadent one.

He had to let Xiao Wen fall into his trap and be manipulated by him. Only by doing this could he restore the authority he had lost and the face he had been humiliated by Xiao Wen.

"I want you to kiss my toes on my crotch and beg for more Life Ointment. For this, you still have to pay with all your wealth! " This order, he thought maliciously.

So he said, "I'm going to introduce Daxing to the key to our control of those people."

With that, he pointed at the carbide like substance and said, "This is called the Life Ointment, it's a medicine. If one consumed it, one would feel as if they were floating in the air. After enjoying this feeling, whatever power or reservation he had, would be broken. The only thing that remains is loyalty to His Majesty. "

"Life Ointment?" Hearing this, a strange expression appeared on Xiao Wen's face.

In his time, though, there were few people who used that term to refer to it. However, Xiao Wen still had a vague feeling of what this thing was.

Thus, he asked back, "This kind of thing can be purchased from the sea merchants in the east, and the sea merchants in the east can also purchase it from foreigners. And these foreigners, were they made in Zhu Tian Country? "As for the life ointment, is there a name for it called opium?"

"How do you know?" When the order heard this, it was as if it received a huge blow.

He was like a girl who was stripped naked and thrown in front of a crowd; she couldn't help but scream.

"What's so strange about that?" Xiao Wen laughed coldly, "I'm afraid you don't know that I am from the Southern Tang Dynasty and grew up here. It's the Song Kingdom's territory now, so it's not strange that I know some of the sea merchants. For a thing like you, cheating people in the West is not a problem. It would be wishful thinking to deceive me, who grew up on the eastern seashore. "

"I also know that this opium not only relieves people's pain like boiling water, but also makes them addicted and unable to get rid of it after only taking it once. Furthermore, its body is extremely injured. After consuming it, it might not be able to live for long. "

"So that's how it is." Hearing that Xiao Wen actually told him the information about the opium as if it was his family's treasure, Zhang Xuan gradually recovered from his shock.

He said, "As expected, a wise man always misses something. This old man has been scheming for so long, and you actually left out the fact that you are from the Southern Tang Dynasty. "

"Humph!" With your intellect, you're still scheming? If I can really be tricked by you, then wouldn't I be a fool? "

As he said this, Xiao Wen showed a look of disdain.

However, the official smiled bitterly and said, "Fine! This old man did not intend to trick you into taking the opium in the first place. So I made other preparations. "

With that, he clapped again, and four burly men suddenly walked out with knives in their hands. At the same time, the servant holding the opium quietly retreated.

"So that's how it is." Xiao Wen looked at the order and said, "It turns out that when I was teaching you a lesson in the government office, you had already prepared to use this trap to deal with me. When I asked to come to our inn, although you were surprised, you didn't object. Because you wanted me to come here. "

"Indeed, your curiosity has caused you to come here early. In fact, if you weren't planning to come over, I'd try to get you to come over. I just need to spend some effort. "

Hearing this, Xiao Wen sneered, "Do you think that these people can force me to take opium?"

As he spoke, he pulled out the sword in his hand, and his eyes became sharp.

"Can you? You have to have fought to know." The official sneered and said, "I bought these warriors for a high price. Their bodies have not been destroyed by opium, and they cannot be compared to us, the weaker ones. Therefore, it's best if you don't get too careless. "

"Thank you for reminding me." Xiao Wen also sneered and said.

However, just as he finished the syllable, Xiao Wen took the lead and rushed in front of the command medallion.

He wanted to capture the culprit, and then threaten the warriors to let them go.

As long as they left this place and made the matter of the official Magus public, the people here would definitely be condemned by the entire aristocratic group, especially the king.

After all, no matter who it was, they did not want to be suddenly tricked into this place and taught a lesson!

After making his decision, Xiao Wen's sword moved extremely fast.

Ever since he had been kidnapped by a ranger from the Cloud County, and having experienced Guo Xiong's assassination, Xiao Wen had paid great attention to his own strength.

Although this world was not the kind of world where people could have super powers, where people could massacre cities and wipe out countries. In this world, the strength of nations, armies, and groups was the most powerful.

However, this world was the same as Xiao Wen's original world. Although they had the power of a group of millions of corpses lying in wait for death and blood from the wrath of the Son of Heaven. However, there were also assassins who were so angry that they killed two people and bled for five steps.

As Xiao Wen progressed, he knew that the number of people he would offend would increase. And this would cause his head to become more and more valuable, and more and more assassins to think about him.

Furthermore, Xiao Wen also knew that from the Spring and Autumn War Empire onwards, Confucius had killed Shaozhen and used his blade and sword to settle disputes between guilds.

Although Xiao Wen's household was very popular in the libertarian Han, they weren't particularly popular in the eastern part of the country.

And in the west, because of Lu Buwei, the First Emperor and some of the other legal scholars of the Qin Empire would certainly have a natural hostility towards him.

Thus, even though Xiao Wen didn't expect himself to be an assassin in the future, he took out a sledgehammer and hammered his political enemies to death in the imperial court. However, he did not want to die because of an assassination attempt.

It would be too unfair if such a thing happened.

"Today, let me see how effective my swordsmanship, which has been bitterly trained for half a year, is!" Xiao Wen's treasured sword pierced towards the Dazzling Spring Order. And in his heart, he thought with high spirits.
