Possessing a Murim Clan’s Youngest Son - Chapter 113
Episode 113. A Feast of Deadly Poison
“I’ll say it again, first is safety, second is safety, third is safety. You are a valuable asset to the Murim Alliance. ha ha ha. The route of movement has also been determined in advance, so please be careful not to deviate from the route.”
Then, Dang Ho-yeon took the first step towards the building.
Wang Qinglin said.
“It’s called poison, so it’s a bit scary to actually get into it.”
Wen Wenbi said.
“I’m sure it will be much safer than the last institution.”
Han Yi-bi said while looking at Baek Mi-hu, who was quietly walking behind Tang Ho-yeon.
“You’ll find out when you go in.”
Han Ibi was the last of the group to catch up.
As soon as he went inside, Wang Qinglin’s voice was heard.
“Oh my goodness! Unbelievable! So pretty. I think it smells nice. “Is it okay if I try it?”
When Han Ibi turned her gaze, there was a light purple flower similar in color to a violet.
It looked quite beautiful when it was in full bloom.
Wang Qinglin clapped his hands and said.
“So pretty. “I want to take it later.”
Han Ibi said with a pitiful expression.
“Have you forgotten that I said it was creepy outside? “If you feel confident, try smelling it.”
At that time, Tang Ho-yeon smiled and said.
“That’s right. It’s just as the story goes. As I said first, you must not tamper with anything here. “You must only follow the route I give you.”
Then Wang Qinglin said with a disappointed expression.
“iced coffee. It’s so pretty like that. “So, are you saying that that flower is also poisonous?”
Dang Ho-yeon said.
“Sure. Everything here is non-toxic. “If I ever carry out a mission in the future, I hope to relive today’s experience and not accidentally touch it.”
Wang Qinglin answered dejectedly.
“Yes…”
“That flower is called Dalchoo (澾草烏), and although it emits a sweet scent, it is dangerous to smell. Dalchoo is mainly used by boiling the stems and petals, concentrating it, and applying it to the diseased or dark organs.”
Han Ibi and the others moved further forward.
There were even more interesting-looking poisonous plants.
Wen Wenbi asked, pointing to the plant.
“Is this also a poisonous plant? Ugh. “It’s really huge.”
Wang Qinglin also spoke with great amazement.
“Oh my, it looks really strange. “It looks like a huge tray.”
Tang Hao-yeon said with a smile.
“It’s a type of poisonous plant called Posahwa (捕蛇花).”
Han Ibi said, narrowing her eyes.
“Ohh. So, it’s like a ‘trap’ of sorts.”
Dang Ho-yeon said.
“you’re right. “You saw it correctly.”
Then he threw the tree branch that had fallen on the ground towards the wide leaf that looked like a tray.
widely.
“Wow!”
The companions could not help but be impressed.
This is because as soon as the branch touched it, the huge tray-like leaves closed in an instant.
It was a movement reminiscent of a flytrap.
Dang Ho-yeon said.
“This grass emits a scent that attracts poisons. “It also lures out poisonous insects, but the ones that attract the most are poisonous snakes.”
Wang Qinglin asked in surprise.
“So does that mean you catch and eat snakes?”
“That’s right. Then, it grabs the caught poisonous snake or venomous snake with tremendous pressure and immediately secretes deadly venom and digests it.”
“Ahh! “It is truly a terrible flower.”
“Furthermore, since it eats and digests poisonous substances, it can be said that even though it is a plant, it has reached the state of being immune to all poisons.”
Han Ibi also let out an exclamation.
“If only I could walk, I would be invincible.”
Then Dang Ho-yeon laughed as if it was fun and said.
“The digestive juices it has are extremely poisonous and extremely acidic. However, it is quite difficult to collect, so it costs a lot of effort to use it as poison. So it is only used for very important things.”
Han Ibi said while shaking her head.
“I won’t ask what that important matter is.”
Tang Ho-yeon said with a chuckle.
“I’ll leave that to your imagination.”
After finishing his explanation, Tang Ho-yeon walked slowly and explained about various poisonous trees, poisonous plants, and poisonous flowers.
There were truly many different types, and the types and symptoms of poison were endless.
After finishing the explanation, Dang Ho-yeon walked toward the next room first.
Ebi Han said.
“It looks like the space is divided.”
Dang Ho-yeon said.
“sure. Because the habitat environments are different. Poisonous plants are often difficult to grow and require great care when growing them. But funny enough, the reason poisonous plants are poisonous is to protect themselves.
“It makes me feel sorry to think that they are being thoroughly used by humans because of their poison for protection.”
“Well, it’s up to your interpretation. “Now…”
Dang Ho-yeon said as he entered the next room.
“This is where poisonous mushrooms are grown.”
Baek Mi-hoo said.
“As I learned first, its appearance is nothing short of gorgeous.”
Dang Ho-yeon said.
“haha. Yes. I brought it here on purpose so you could feel how pretty the poisonous mushrooms are. Even if you starve for ten days, you must never eat…”
Wang Qinglin said.
“Ugh. “I think it’s even creepier now that I know about it.”
Tang Ho-yeon laughed and said.
“But there is nothing to worry about. As far as I know, there has never been a case where a plant attacked a human first. So, if you come across a plant or mushroom like this, you should never touch it, throw it away, or eat it.”
Han Ibi had firmly stored the scenes she was seeing in front of her in her mind.
The group finally entered the next room.
The inside of that room…
was very boring compared to other rooms.
It looked like a workroom or laboratory, but it contained liquids and powders tightly sealed in ceramic vessels.
Han Ibi asked.
“Dang Bridge Head. “What are those?”
Dang Ho-yeon said.
“These are taken as reference for educational purposes. “These are things that come from the ground, not from animals or plants.”
“On the ground?”
“you’re right. For example, in the case of that rain, it is obtained by heating a stone called Biseok.”
“aha. “This is the famous emergency.”
It is often used for poisoning or assassination…
Dang Ho-yeon continued.
“This type of poison is particularly popular for covert assassinations because its concentration allows you to control the rate of poisoning.”
In addition, toxic substances such as lead and mercury were also seen.
Tang Hao-yeon said with a smile.
“Now, let’s move on to the next column. Even the students who went here first found it interesting.”
Wang Qinglin and Wen Wenbi entered the next room, their eyes widening at his interesting story.
“and!”
They screamed without realizing it.
This is because animals, including various types of bugs, were locked in cages here.
You can tell without asking. They are probably poisonous.
There were truly various types of poisons on display there.
Sacheondangmun wanted to inform the Murim Alliance.
About their true skills in handling poison.
If he puts his mind to it, he has the enormous potential to cause a stir in the powerhouse…
And that strategy was paying off to some extent.
The new members of the Yeom Society, who can be said to be the best talents of the Murim Alliance, will no longer dare to look at the Four Heavenly Hall without permission.
Dang Ho-yeon made a request once more.
“Never, ever go off course.”
Wang Qinglin said.
“All right. Mr. Bridge. But… are there so many poisonous creatures?”
There were typical poisons like scorpions, but there were also somewhat unexpected things like ants, bees, and snails.
Wang Qinglin, Wen Wenbi, Baek Mi-hu, and others were admiring the various types of poisonous substances with curious eyes.
In particular, even Baek Mi-hoo, who showed quite an adult appearance, looked a bit excited, as if she had come to the zoo.
Han Ibi thought as she leisurely watched the scene from behind.
‘It’s Kangho’s small cooperative, it’s an unmanned group. No matter what, when you look at them like this, they’re just children.’
At that time, Wang Qinglin spoke to Han Yi Fei, who was behind.
“and! Zhongli Small Colony. “Look at the color of this frog.”
At her urging, Han Ibi pretended not to be able to resist and went to her side.
She was right.
The frog, which was probably highly poisonous, had bright yellow spotted patterns on its bright red body.
A visual effect that makes you feel like your body is melting just by touching it…
Han Ibi approached with a reluctant heart.
At that time, Wang Qinglin had already left to look at other poisons.
‘It’s burning red… It’s such an old-fashioned primary color… Ugh. Just go. But… something’s a little strange.’
Han Ibi walked a little closer to the frog.
Then I saw a frog writhing.
‘Yes? I guess…’
Hanibi tilted her head and took a step towards the cage where the frog was trapped.
Then the frog flinched and took a step back.
‘This is really strange. It wasn’t like this when Wang Qinglin saw it earlier.’
Han Ibi tried to take a step closer, but stopped when she saw the line marked on the floor.
There was a sign at the Sacheondang Gate telling people not to enter anymore because it was dangerous.
However, the more curiosity is pushed, the more it blooms.
Han Yi-bi caught a glimpse of Dang Ho-yeon and stretched out one hand and brought it closer to the frog.
Then the red frog was acting as if it was struggling to get out of the cage.
It was clear that there was a causal relationship between the two events.
‘Yes? Do I look that strange? ‘Why are you avoiding me?’
Han Ibi this time approached the snakes, which can be synonymous with poison.
Seeing them wagging their tongues made me frown.
Humans are inherently afraid of snakes.
But…
‘They’re like that too!’
The coiled snakes were seen making efforts to spread the distance between themselves.
Just in case, Han Ibi turned around and approached the cage where the all-yellow dragons were.
As expected, their reactions were not much different.
They wriggled as if they were afraid of something and then slowly retreated to the back like a puppy that was tired of pooping.
Even the poisonous snail, which boasted a huge size…
The sight of it slowly turning desperately towards the back wall and running away was truly a sight to behold.
“Waaaa!”
At that time, Wang Qinglin’s excited voice was heard.
Han Ibi was surprised and looked at him.
What she was watching was in front of a cage made of solid wood.
“So…so cute!”
At that time, Tang Ho-yeon hardened his expression and said.
“for a moment. “You absolutely have to be careful with this guy.”
“yes? It looks so cute. “Is this poisonous too?”
“Not only is it poisonous… but it is also extremely deadly.”
“iced coffee. “I just can’t believe it.”
At that moment, Wen Wenbi asked.
“What’s the name of this? Hmm… it’s like… So…”
Dang Ho-yeon interrupted.
“It looks a lot like a marten. But actually, this is not a midfield animal.”
“It’s not Joongwon’s?”
“That’s right. The name of this animal is also known as Hyeongheunseonga (凶很仙家)… It is also a precious poisonous animal that has been carefully raised by the Demonic Cult for a very long time. “Each one is treated as a spirit animal.”
Then everyone looked surprised.
Wang Qinglin said with an expression of complete disbelief.
“But it doesn’t look that fierce.”
Tang Hao-yeon nodded and said.
“That’s right. Normally. However, the people of the Demonic Cult have learned how to control them. “They can excite a person and turn him or her into a ferocious person in an instant.”
“How do you mean?”
“We don’t know either. In any case, it may not be for religious reasons as they claim. In fact, our party is researching that method. Of all the things I learned today, this is the most important. “If you come across this ferocious beast in the west… you must quickly avoid it.”
Wen Wonbi asked back.
“Should I avoid it?”
“That’s right. This is what is said. Donggung-ri Seoseon family. If there is ‘Madokungri’, the king of poisons, in the east, there is ‘Hyeongheunseonga’ in the west. And they say that the two are extremely opposites. According to legend, the moment those two spirits fought, the sky collapsed and the sea turned upside down. It’s just a story from a book.”
Han Ibi was startled to the point where she took her breath away.
