Chapter 412 is a genius!
"You, how do you know..."
The old man staggered and continued to retreat.
It seemed that he was quite frightened by Pan Xiaoxiao.
But this retreat did not last long.
Because soon, Li Luo appeared behind the old man without anyone noticing, easily blocking his retreat.
"Take us to him."
Pan Xiaoxiao adjusted her glasses and for the first time used an unquestionable commanding tone.
"Impossible, stop dreaming!"
"As long as I'm here, don't even think about hurting the prince!"
The old man suddenly became extremely excited and shouted loudly, which soon attracted the attention of the guards stationed nearby.
Seeing that a dozen heavily-armored guards holding long-handled axes were approaching, the frightened cat-eared girl quickly took out the Coward's Shield and prepared to fight the enemy.
But Pan Xiaoxiao remained calm and continued:
"We don't mean to hurt the prince."
However, the old man was no longer interested:
"Don't try to fool me. Although I am old, I am not stupid yet!"
"You guys are probably the assassins who killed the prince's mother!"
"You killed the queen of Hatteras, and now you want to harm the prince. I will not let you succeed even if I risk my life!"
The atmosphere was tense.
Pan Xiaoxiao subconsciously turned around and glanced at Lu Li.
I thought the other party would panic.
Unexpectedly, the young man just raised his eyebrows, showing no sign of worry at all.
Even if Mount Tai collapses in front of you, you remain calm.
"What a strong mental quality..."
Pan Xiaoxiao sighed inwardly, then glanced at the heavily-armored guards approaching from all sides.
After taking a deep breath, she said to the imperial physician calmly:
"We don't want to harm the prince. On the contrary, we want to save him."
"We know how to cure the prince's strange disease."
As soon as these words were spoken, the old man's expression immediately changed from gloomy to bright.
"Is this true?"
Pan Xiaoxiao nodded seriously:
"Of course it's true. If we were really assassins, why would we go to so much trouble to find you first?"
"Wouldn't it be more convenient to sneak directly into the palace to look for the prince?"
As he was speaking, a heavily armored guard came forward and asked the old man:
"Imperial Physician, what happened? Are these people assassins?"
The old man was stunned for a long time before waving his hand and saying:
"No, it's a misunderstanding."
"These people are also doctors, claiming that they can cure the prince's strange disease."
"Oh?" The heavily armored guard was obviously surprised and looked at Lu Li and the others with disbelief:
"I never thought that there would be someone in this world whose medical skills are better than those of the imperial physician."
The old man stroked his beard with a strange look on his face:
"Everyone learns things at different times, and everyone specializes in different skills. It is not uncommon for someone to be better than me."
"Let me pack up and go into the palace with them to meet the prince."
……
The other end.
Garden crystal coffin.
After rubbing his eyes again and confirming that the crystal coffin in front of him was open, Wan Jiaxi suddenly became nervous.
Fortunately, there were no heavily armored guards stationed around, which made him feel a little relieved.
"Everyone, stay alert. I feel like something is wrong here. It seems like someone has been here before..."
After instructing his teammates, Wan Jiaxi approached the crystal coffin cautiously.
The expected horrific scene did not appear.
The half-human, half-fish corpse was still lying in the coffin, but there were obvious signs that it had been moved.
After repeatedly confirming that there would not be three hundred swordsmen and axemen who would suddenly appear and hack them to death, Wan Jiaxi began to carefully examine the bodies of the murlocs.
The greasy middle-aged man and the man with gold-rimmed glasses were helping out, and they were often choked by the stench that was rising up, making them cry.
"Oh my god, this smell is too strong..."
"Isn't it said that the crystal coffin can prevent decay? I don't think the effect is very good..."
"Why is the coffin lid open today? Could it be that he came back to life last night?"
"Lin Zhengying can handle the revelation of a human corpse, but who should handle the revelation of a mermaid corpse?"
"I don't know, maybe a witch? The system is different, maybe no one can control it..."
"That makes sense. We have to be careful. If this thing jumps up and bites us, who can we turn to for justice?"
As the topic of whispering in his ear became increasingly off-topic, Wan Jiaxi couldn't help but want to warn them.
But the next second, the fish tail was flipped up by the greasy man.
The scene before him made him stop talking immediately.
"This is……"
A light red jade-like scale was picked up by Wan Jiaxi and appeared in the sight of passers-by players.
"Looks familiar, I seem to have seen him somewhere!" The greasy middle-aged man spoke first.
"The texture of this scale is so special. It's completely different from other curly gray fish scales..." The man with gold-rimmed glasses adjusted his glasses and observed it carefully.
"On the first day, the prince issued a task and asked Lu Li to hand over something to the Goodman Caravan. Is this it..." The two timid female players said to each other:
"It seems so. I thought it was some precious jade piece. After a while, I found out it was the scales from a mermaid's tail..."
"The sea monster is nice to look at, but it's a pity that it's only in the secret realm."
"Yes, if we can take it out and sell it on the market, it will be worth at least a few Yuan Crystals."
"Yes, it's the kind above level 2. There must be female players who like this thing..."
Wan Jiaxi ignored the people's wild ideas and just stared at the scales in his hand in a daze.
I think this is the key.
Shah Rukh suggests that they search carefully for the key to the mermaid's body.
Just what's the use?
It can't be just for the sake of looking good...
Suddenly, the man with gold-rimmed glasses said something that woke Wan Jiaxi up:
"Hey, if we hand this thing over to the Goodman Caravan, can we get something in return?"
"Clothes? Gold coins? Or all kinds of powerful props and equipment..."
That's right!
You can give this thing to the Goodman Caravan!
"It's a clue!"
Wan Jiaxi suppressed his excitement and interrupted:
"Give this thing to the Goodman Caravan and we'll get some clues!"
"Do you remember the specific content of the first errand task?"
Among the two timid female players, the one with a mushroom-head hair obviously has a better memory.
After thinking for a moment, he whispered:
"Give the light red scale to the merchant of the Goodman Caravan, and bring back what you got intact to him."
"I saw it in the secret chat channel. Boss Lu Li and his friends brought back a letter."
"If we follow the prince's request, it stands to reason that Boss Lu Li and the others cannot open the letter and check the contents."
"That's right!" Wan Jiaxi clenched his fists, as if he had grasped the clue to pass the level:
"If we bring this light red scale to the merchants of the Goodman Caravan, we will most likely be able to obtain the letter that Boss Lu Li passed on to the prince!"
"Boss Lu Li can't read the contents of the letter because he accepted the prince's errand task."
"But I can see! We didn't accept the prince's mission!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
Then you look at me and I look at you.
A look of joy gradually appeared on his face.
When looking at Wan Jiaxi again, these expressions quickly turned into admiration.
I didn't expect this unreliable passerby leader with a cockscomb haircut,
He's actually a genius!
