Demon’s Diary

Volume 3 Chapter 391 The Antidote

The leader of the middle-aged man seemed calm on the surface, but from the expression in his eyes, he seemed to enjoy the fearful and angry eyes of these miners, so he deliberately walked slowly.

Wherever he passed, whether it was the small and medium forces or the people from the two major forces in the middle, they all silently stepped back a few steps and made way.

After a while, all the guards finally reached the open space in the central square, and stopped in front of a stone platform about zhang high.

The leading middle-aged man did not speak immediately, but looked around.

After seeing a hint of hope in the eyes of the surrounding miners, he nodded with satisfaction, and loudly announced with a light cough:

"I'm Chen Gang, hehe, I don't need to introduce any more. Nine times out of ten, you all know me. The rules are generally the same as in the past, but the exchange conditions have changed slightly this month. Thirty-five rare ores can be exchanged for one. Sea Emperor Pill antidote."

As soon as his voice fell, there was an uproar in the field.

"Last month, it was still thirty pieces of ore for one piece. Why didn't the price increase suddenly be notified in advance?" I don't know who started shouting.

Hearing this, the crowd became even more agitated, and many miners whispered for a while, all with different expressions.

Liu Ming glanced calmly, and found that the clamorers were mostly people from small and medium-sized forces, while the mine slaves who belonged to the two major forces were silent, as if it was no surprise that this scene was over.

"Yeah, now the peripheral ore veins have long been exhausted, and most of the rich ore-producing areas have been occupied, and the amount of ore mining has not been as much as before."

"Not only that, in recent months, those evil beasts seem to have become a little crazy, and their haunts have become more frequent..."

Some other miners were in a hurry, and there were still people shouting.

When Chen Gang, who was standing in front of the stone platform, saw this, his face darkened and he suddenly said coldly and loudly:

"Quiet! The rules here are up to you to decide? Those who don't want to exchange the antidote leave as soon as possible! But for those who don't follow the rules, don't blame Chen for being rude."

This voice resounded throughout the audience, and the miner who had been shouting suddenly fell silent, and the huge cave instantly fell silent.

When Chen Gang saw this, his expression softened slightly and continued:

"Remind everyone, I see the ore as an antidote, and I can also collect it for others, but the antidote can only be stored for seven days, don't think about saving it for the next poison outbreak. If the ore is not enough, don't ask for it at all. It’s boring. Of course, those who have excess ore can also exchange for some medicinal herbs, talismans and other items here. Well, this exchange will start.”

After the middle-aged demon guard finished speaking, he took a step back, carried his hands on his back, and stopped speaking.

After the following time, several demon guards stepped forward, took out a few storage talismans, and released a lot of spirit stones and talisman pills and the like on the stone platform, and then signaled to leave the field. Everyone stepped forward to exchange.

The most numerous of them were hundreds of small green vials that looked the same, apparently the so-called Sea Emperor Pill antidote.

At first, there was a quiet area in the cave, and many miners from small and medium-sized forces were silent one by one, just looking at the two groups occupying the east and west ends of the center of the square.

However, these mine guards were not surprised, they just stood near the stone platform and sneered, without any urging.

But after a while, the golden scale woman named "Xunming" was the first to be surrounded by two people from the sea tribe, and exchanged a large bag of antidote and some medicinal talismans on behalf of her power.

And the old monster from the "Iron Alliance" also came forward to exchange on behalf of the Iron Alliance.

In an instant, the antidote and other items on the stone platform were reduced by as much as half.

After receiving their own antidote for the month, the people from the two major forces left the two passages next to the cave like a gust of wind, presumably because they wanted to take the antidote immediately so that they could return to the depths of the mine as soon as possible.

The large area left behind by the two major forces was immediately occupied by other forces, and at this time, only about two-thirds of the people in the cave were left.

After that, the rest of the small and medium-sized forces also stepped forward and started to exchange.

But in front of the stone platform, after one of the guards took the bag from the exchanger, the other guard would hand over a black leather bag with an antidote to the other.

In addition to the Haihuang Pill antidote, which requires thirty-five rare ores, the excess ores can be exchanged for spirit stones at a ratio of one to twenty, while other low-level talismans and medicinal pills require several ores to be worth it. In exchange for one.

Such a conversion ratio, if placed in the outside world, is simply unimaginable, but here, everyone can only accept it silently except for a few words in their hearts.

Therefore, apart from the previous two powerful forces, the other small and medium-sized forces rarely exchanged other items, and even if they did, they would only exchange some spiritual stones.

After all, in the special environment of this place, spiritual stones are extremely scarce things. At the juncture of life and death, one more mana can give a chance to save one's life.

The exchange has been going on in a rather strange atmosphere.

Although many people from small and medium-sized forces came forward, looking at the guards, especially the leader named "Chen Gang", their faces were gloomy, but the whole process was still orderly.

"Boss, there are four of us, why did you only exchange three antidote?" Suddenly a questioning voice broke the peace in the cave.

The voice came from an alien youth with purple lips in the corner of the cave, and the head of the four was a man with hanging eyebrows, who just took a bag of ore but only exchanged three antidote.

"Brother Weng Xian, there is no way to do this. I didn't expect Chen Gang to raise the price privately. There are more than 20 pieces of ore left here. You should think about it yourself." It was also quite a headache. After throwing a bag to the thin young man, he gave an expression that I had done my best and had no other way.

When the young man surnamed Weng saw the blank expressions of the other two companions, a look of disappointment flashed on his face. He immediately picked up the bag without saying much, and took out the bone sword and spirit stone around his waist. I started to look for some other forces to find a way to collect ore.

The same scene continued to play out during this period.

Many small gangs had to give up their weak companions because they could not gather enough ore.

Among those who were abandoned, there were those who stumbled and left sadly, and when they suddenly heard the news, they were furious with their accomplices, and wanted to get back a detoxification pill, but they were killed by their former comrades instead.

Chen Gang, who was standing behind the stone platform, watched the scene in front of him with a smile that was not a smile, completely gloating.

However, some gangs that still have spare strength have begun to take the opportunity to collect companions at the price of ore and expand their power.

The unfamiliar young man who had carried a huge iron rod on his shoulders used an antidote to collect a human race companion in the early stage of liquid condensate, and then took the rest to leave through the passage on the side.

Passing by Liu Ming's side, this person smiled meaningfully at Liu Ming.

...

Liu Ming stood on the spot and quietly observed a cup of tea. When only one-third of the people were left on the field, he touched his chin, and finally grabbed the huge leather bag nearby and joined it.

When he was waiting here before, he had quietly scanned the ore in the bag with his spiritual sense, and found that together with the ore he had obtained from the five sea clansmen, there were about 200 pieces in total at this moment, but its quality Most of them are ordinary rare ores similar to water mysterious stone.

However, this number has already surprised those guards.

As for Chen Gang, facing Liu Ming who was personally sent into the mine not long ago, he didn't blink a single eye, and looked like he didn't see it.

Liu Ming's thoughts moved, and he immediately exchanged three antidote with the guard in front of him. At the same time, he exchanged the extra ores for some low-level medicinal pills and talismans.

The reason why he did this was naturally with the intention of preparing to study two more antidote elixir.

After Liu Ming finished changing things, he immediately did not want to stay here, and left the exchange area from the previous passage without saying a word.

On the way back to the depths of the mine, nothing happened.

After two days,

Liu Ming finally returned to the original abandoned passage based on the homemade animal skin map.

After confirming that no one had entered his temporary cave during this period, he patted the leather bag on his waist and released the bone scorpion again to be on guard here.

And he turned around and entered the cave, sat on the ground, and after taking an elixir to restore mana, he began to meditate and adjust his breath.

An hour later.

When Liu Ming woke up from meditation, he took out the leather bag containing the antidote from his waist, and took out an antidote from the Sea Emperor Pill.

But the view medicine is like the Haihuang Pill that was swallowed in the giant boat before. It is about an inch in size, and the whole body is black. The surface exudes a faint brilliance, and there is a faint fragrance coming from it, which makes people unable to help themselves. Vibrate.

"This is the antidote for the Sea Emperor Pill! But it can only restrain its toxicity for a month. If you can know its ingredients..." Liu Ming murmured thoughtfully, looking at the black pill in his hand.

Judging from the information obtained so far, after taking this black Sea Emperor Pill antidote, it can temporarily suppress the erosion of the internal organs by the black mist formed by the Sea Emperor Pill.

When Liu Ming was learning the art of alchemy from Fan Baizi in Xuanjing, he heard the alchemy master specifically mention about such temporary antidote.

In order to achieve the control purpose of the poisoner, there are only two possibilities for such antidote.

First, although the antidote contains a small amount of symptomatic elixir, it also contains a small amount of the same ingredients as the poison. While suppressing the poisonous attack, it also buried the opportunity for the next attack. eventually become a disaster.

Second, the antidote contained in this type of antidote is not a detoxification elixir, but another overbearing poison, which is only temporarily suppressed by forcibly suppressing the poison for a period of time. of endless troubles.
