"This is natural, Master Jin just mention it, I will continue."
Long Xuan had already prepared that the price would be very high, but this time, even if the price was much higher than the normal price, he was prepared to win it without hesitation.
"No hurry, let's drink first, drink."
Master Jin still had that smiling look. He sincerely wanted to whet Long Xuan's appetite, so he took back the piece of Millennium Ice Marrow that was about to become Ten-Thousand-Year Ice Marrow.
After the two of them talked for so long, Master Jin's disciples finally started to serve the food.
His disciples brought out all kinds of delicious meat and vegetables one after another, as well as fine wine. Of course, compared to Long Xuan's wine, it was completely rubbish.
Although the food is very rich, Long Xuan has already eaten at Qian Clan Tavern, and he is still full, so he still has no appetite.
He couldn't wait to take Millennium Ice Marrow and turn around and leave right now. He had no intention of eating or drinking.
But he couldn't show a very eager look, otherwise it wouldn't give Master Jin the opportunity to offer a high price.
He could only suppress his eagerness and finish the meal before talking about it.
"Haha, come and try this dish. This is the meat of a fourth-grade spiritual beast. It is a prey that only Gu King can hunt. The price is ridiculously high. If I didn't hit it off with my little friend, I wouldn't be willing to eat it."
Master Jin pointed at the hardest meat dish in the middle of the table, then picked up a piece of meat and threw it into his mouth in front of Long Xuan.
After seeing him eat it with his own eyes, Long Xuan also picked up the chopsticks, preparing to suppress the discomfort in his stomach and give Master Jin some face.
However, just as he reached for the dish with his chopsticks, his arm suddenly froze.
It was completely because he had long been frightened by the various unpreventable Gu Recipe tricks in this world, so he developed the habit of checking everything with Eye of Heavenly Secrets first.
So what if Master Jin has tasted it himself? Even if Qian Clan Tavern has an absolutely guaranteed reputation, he will first use Eye of Heavenly Secrets to confirm that there is no problem before using chopsticks.
He just used Eye of Heavenly Secrets to scan subconsciously. He had already developed this habit as a conditioned reflex. Even if he didn't give the order, Eye of Heavenly Secrets would form muscle memory and glance at it.
Unexpectedly, I discovered a problem at this glance. There were bugs crawling in the dish. The bugs were so small that they were difficult to see without magnification.
Long Xuan broke out in a cold sweat behind his back, his Tianling Gai felt cold, and he felt a sense of fear in his heart.
What does this Master Jin want to do? How can there be insects in the vegetables?
Whether it was intentional or unintentional, could this meal today be the Hongmen Banquet?
What a good Master Jin, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, always smiling. He laughs loudly before saying anything. He is kind and generous. This guy is just a smiley guy. I am afraid that today's dish will not be good.
Long Xuan had to be thankful that he had Eye of Heavenly Secrets, otherwise he might have really gotten into trouble today. This Master Jin was so kind. Who would have thought that there would be another face hidden under his smiling face, even if he was deceived by this kind face.
Although Long Xuan's heart was in turmoil and his hair stood on end at this moment, his expression remained calm as he changed the direction of his chopsticks and pinched the vegetarian dishes on the side.
He was about to say that he was vegetarian and wanted to eat some vegetarian food, but before he could put down his chopsticks, his arms stopped in mid-air.
This vegetarian dish actually also contains insects, and the amount is increased.
Long Xuan once again looked at the rest of the dishes, including the wine, and there were actually worms in all of them.
Such a thick-browed and big-eyed Master Jin is really too bad. I wonder if this is a banquet for all insects. Did he throw all his insects into the vegetable?
Long Xuan awkwardly stopped his chopsticks in mid-air, not daring to touch any dish.
What Master Jin did was so awesome that there was no way for him to survive. What could he do? He could only take back his chopsticks in embarrassment and said with a dry smile, "I'm really sorry, I need to pee. I'll go outside for a while first."
"I'll be back in a minute. When I get back, I'll have a long chat with Master Jin and we'll stop after we get drunk."
Saying this, Long Xuan got up and walked out of the cave, preparing to make a peeing escape.
However, how could things end so easily? Before Long Xuan could take a few steps, the formation under his feet had already been activated, and a circular transparent barrier rose up, firmly enclosing the hall. He almost hit the barrier head-on.
Long Xuan's face changed slightly, he looked back at Master Jin and pretended to be confused. "Master Jin, what does this mean?"
Master Jin is still smiling, but at this time he has walked out of the barrier with Formation Key in his hand, leaving only Long Xuan in the barrier.
At this time, Master Jin finally stopped pretending and said with a smile, "Although I don't know how you figured out that there was poison in the food and wine, I'm afraid you're overthinking it if you want to leave so easily."
"This is my home court, and there are formations controlled by me everywhere. Even if you are not poisoned, you will not escape death today."
Long Xuan had already discovered that his Eye of Heavenly Secrets had the ability to break the formation, so he was not worried about being trapped in Binding Formation. Instead, he asked calmly, "I don't know when I have offended Master Jin, please let me know!"
Master Jin said with an undiminished smile, "Haha! Why should we offend someone in Gu World? There are a few who will offend others when they are idle. It is the original sin for a weak person to control wealth."
"Millennium Ice Marrow is a priceless treasure. If converted into Spirit Stone, it would cost hundreds of millions. If you keep collecting this kind of stuff, aren't you telling others that you have a net worth of hundreds of millions? You don't really think that I, a refiner, can't even recognize the materials for the refinement! Do you still need to identify the authenticity?"
"So that's the reason! No wonder." Long Xuan nodded. This reason is really unexplainable. Millennium Ice Marrow He has to collect it. Is he afraid of getting into trouble? Can he not collect it? Divine Ice Flame Can he not practice?
He didn't do anything wrong, it's just that there are some things you are destined to not be able to avoid.
"Master! Now that he is trapped in the formation, let's release poison gas to kill him! The last time we killed Rogue Cultivator named Feng, we used poison gas soldiers to take him down without any bloodshed."
The one who spoke was the young man who had just received Long Xuan at the door. At this time, he no longer looked respectful as before.
From what he meant, this Master Jin is obviously a habitual offender. This is not the first time he has done this kind of thing. It is unknown how many Rogue Cultivators were deceived into cave abode by him and then tricked and killed by him.
No wonder he often gives out Message Transmission Talisman to wealthy people every Treasure Exchange Fair, saying it is convenient for private transactions. It turns out to be this reason. No wonder, Long Xuan understands it.
"No need, he has Cockroach Gu. That thing is incredible. Most methods can't kill him, and poisoning will never do anything to him."
"I'm going to let Gu Insect eat him. I don't believe Cockroach Gu can let him live after he turns into a pile of minced meat."
Master Jin sneered, opened Insect-Rearing Pouch, and put three fierce-looking Gu Insect into the formation.
