The Elixir is for You, The Poison is for Me

#154 - condition

Although Yazdan had shown amazing restraint in the previous conflict, giving Lu Jing plenty of face.

However, in order to express his position, Lu Jing still had to frequently bother this old brother in the following three days.

Basically, Lu Jing visited all of Yazdan's territories, and everyone in the city now knows that Lu Jing is investigating Yazdan and his subordinates.

The relationship between the two has also become very tense.

However, the person Lu Jing was looking for was still nowhere to be found.

Just when the female shopkeeper began to suspect whether the little girl was still alive.

An uninvited guest finally knocked on the door of the tailor shop at midnight.

At this time, it hadn't been long since the new sandstorm had passed, and the sand and dust outside hadn't completely dissipated, and the visitor was very likely to have gone out as soon as the sandstorm weakened.

You must know that even now that Lu Jing is attracting the attention of those things in the sandstorm, such a move is still very dangerous.

So the female shopkeeper opened the door immediately.

She saw the tightly wrapped figure standing outside the door.

However, after the person came into the room and took off the headscarf on her face, Nada was a little disappointed.

Although there was a girl's face under the headscarf, judging from her age, this girl was at least sixteen or seventeen years old, which was a big difference from the twelve or thirteen years old that Kaff had said.

But the female shopkeeper still asked, "You are…"

"Sarah." The girl announced her name, and then asked, "Is this Lu Jing, the residence of the great hero Lu?"

"That's right." The female shopkeeper nodded.

"Then why don't I see the great hero Lu?" The girl asked vigilantly.

"He uses himself as bait to attract those things in the sandstorm and protect the people in the city. He hasn't come back yet."

Although Sarah seemed a little rude, asking why Lu Jing wasn't there before stating her intentions, the female shopkeeper still tried to make her tone sound gentle enough, and then said.

"It's the same if you tell me anything."

"It's not the same," Sarah shook her head, "I will only say my words to the great hero Lu alone."

The female shopkeeper was amused by her, "The great hero Lu is not from here and doesn't understand your language. I will still have to translate it at that time."

"Then I'll talk when he comes back." Sarah said in an unquestionable tone.

So the female shopkeeper was too lazy to pay attention to her, poured her a bowl of water, and went to the yard to sweep away the sand and dust.

After waiting for about a cup of tea, Lu Jing finally returned in the moonlight.

He was out for a little longer this time than usual, and his face looked a little strange when he came back.

However, because there was a more eccentric Sarah in the shop, the female shopkeeper didn't pay much attention to the change in Lu Jing's expression.

On the contrary, Lu Jing noticed an extra person in the house as soon as he entered the door.

"Nikar?" Lu Jing asked the female shopkeeper.

The latter shook her head, "She said her name is Sarah."

The two were communicating in Chinese, but probably because she heard the three words Nikar, Sarah, who had been sitting there with her mouth shut, suddenly spoke again, "Nikar is my friend."

"Nikar is your friend? Where is she now?" The female shopkeeper's eyes lit up immediately when she heard this.

"A place where no one can find her." Sarah said coldly.

"I can understand your situation and caution, but you don't actually need to be so hostile to us." The female shopkeeper shook her head, "We are not with Yazdan."

"Then prove it to me." Sarah said.

"Prove it to you? Haven't we been proving it all this time? Now everyone in Marasaar Khan knows that we are at odds with Yazdan."

"But how do I know that this isn't a play you and Yazdan are putting on for us?" Sarah retorted.

The female shopkeeper frowned, feeling that the girl named Sarah in front of her was simply being unreasonable, but she still patiently asked, "Then how do you want us to prove it?"

"It's very simple, kill Yazdan." Sarah said simply.

The female shopkeeper was stunned when she heard this, seemingly not expecting that a little girl who didn't look very old could talk about killing people without changing her expression.

Lu Jing, who had been listening quietly without speaking, finally spoke at this time, "Does Nikar want to avenge her father?"

Sarah didn't speak, seemingly acquiescing to this statement.

"But Nikar doesn't actually know who killed her father, right? It's just because the person who took her father away earlier was Yazdan's guard, so she blamed her father's death on Yazdan.

"She can't even be sure whether her father's death was really just an accident, after all, her father was also a well-known drunkard."

"That's not something you need to worry about." Sarah said lightly.

"This is ridiculous," the female shopkeeper shook her head, "We are not elders and cannot arbitrarily convict anyone, let alone even the elders have to hold a public trial, and as for the execution after conviction, it is even more not something we should do."

"They don't want us to hold a trial for Yazdan, they just simply want me to be an assassin and kill him." Lu Jing said.

Then he looked at Sarah again, "What if I don't agree?"

"Then you can kill me now." Sarah puffed out her chest and said without fear, "Then you will never see Nikar and won't know how to stop this disaster."

So Lu Jing raised his eyebrows and said to the female shopkeeper, "In that case, there's no other way, let her go."

"Let her go?" The female shopkeeper was anxious when she heard this, "Then what about the sandstorm and the things in the sandstorm?"

"Ah, well… the problem is actually not that big." Lu Jing scratched his head and said, "I actually wanted to tell you when I came back that I seem to have found a solution."

Lu Jing didn't lie. Including today, this was already the thirteenth sandstorm he had experienced.

And in this sandstorm, Lu Jing accidentally discovered something.

That is, the armored warriors in the sandstorm are almost all killed by him.

According to his observation and research during this period, the number of these things is around two hundred, which seems to be quite a lot, especially when they are together, their momentum is even more amazing.

But no matter how many people there are, they can't stand Lu Jing always going to take advantage of them.

Moreover, Lu Jing can now take away a dozen armored warriors at a time after finding the trick. After thirteen rounds, he has saved up one hundred and fifty black stones, plus the eighteen that he has already used.

In other words, the number of armored warriors he has dismantled has reached an astonishing one hundred and sixty-eight.

Moreover, this army has not been replenished with fresh blood afterwards, and Lu Jing is increasingly convinced that these armored warriors are non-renewable.

At least they cannot be reborn after the core black stone is taken away.

In other words, this sheep has almost been plucked bald by someone.
