Chapter 32 Internal Response
The burning bonfire gradually lost its light, and everyone snored one after another, obviously because they were too tired during the day. Next to the bonfire, there was a wooden barrel that stored mountain spring water, which was the one that Qin Chuan had mistaken for the wine barrel before, and at this moment a black shadow was staying next to it, sneakily not knowing what he was doing.
It was about a little loud and made some noises, and suddenly Mr. Yu raised his head and shouted: "Who is it? What are you doing next to the bucket?"
The sleeping crowd was awakened by the sound of Mr. Yu's head, and couldn't help but look at the bonfire.
At this moment, the dark shadow beside the campfire turned around and said, "It's me, I just drank too much spirits, and I was thirsty, thinking of drinking some mountain spring water to quench my thirst." Only by the faint light of the fire did everyone see that it was the fifth man with a scarface.
Qin Chuan had also woken up at this moment, looking at Lao Dao's expression clearly, it seemed that he was not asleep at all.
Qin Chuan asked Lao Dao with swollen eyes, "What happened, why didn't everyone sleep?"
Lao Dao looked in the direction of the bonfire and gloated: "Shhh, don't worry, there is something good to see." ”
Mr. Yu got up at this moment and walked towards the bonfire, and when the scar-faced old five saw this, he took out the water scoop and was about to take another sip of water, but was interrupted by Mr. Yu's head: "Old five, put down the water scoop." ”
Hearing this, the scar-faced old five poured the water in the scoop to the side, and asked puzzledly, "Boss, what's wrong?"
Mr. Yu turned his head but didn't say a word, lit a torch with his hand, and walked towards the place where the old five with the scarred face poured water with a grim expression.
Mr. Yu held his head with a torch and searched casually on the ground, and found out what was the difference, it turned out that the snake spirit grass that was thrown away by Qin Chuan before had been changed at the moment, and it had been wet, obviously someone had soaked this snake spirit grass into the water!
Lao Dao had said before that this snake spirit grass was extremely poisonous, and if it was eaten by mistake, it would poison its lungs. As the saying goes, it is a three-point poison.
Qin Chuan and Lao Dao followed everyone and also took a few steps closer to the side of the snake spirit grass.
"This is the Snake Spirit Grass!"
"Yes, it looks like someone is trying to poison us"
"I really don't know who is so ruthless, if I catch it. Hmph......"
Everyone has discovered the snake spirit grass, and they can't help but be angry, and several people who had suffered from miasma before also stood up, looking at this complexion, it is also a lot better, it seems that the old prescription is still quite effective. At this moment, from the mouths of others, I also know the poison of this snake spirit grass.
And the scar-faced Lao Wu, who is holding a water scoop at the moment, is the most suspicious at the moment.
The scar-faced old five hurriedly threw away the scoop and explained loudly: "Mr. Yu, brothers, I'm afraid you're not suspicious of me!"
Everyone was silent, looking at the scar-faced old five.
Mr. Yu didn't make a hair at the moment, looking at him.
Scarface Lao Wu hurriedly explained: "I used to drink too much spirits, thinking about taking a sip of mountain spring water to quench my thirst, and then I found something in the barrel, so I scooped it out, when Mr. Yu turned his head and asked who was here, I quickly answered, other than that, I don't know anything." ”
The scar-faced old five shouted loudly at this moment, and everyone was also hesitating.
This scar-faced old five is the Dongfu Dart Bureau that has only entered in the past two years, it is said that the former owner deducted the salary, so he came to Qingzhou City, alone, but also at ease, except for occasional entertainment, he rarely intersects with other people. In the past two years, I have walked through several darts, except for a few times when I was robbed of darts, and the others are basically safe, and the brothers who listened to the guards said that the scar-faced old five also gave up their lives to protect the bodyguards, and there were also a lot of injuries on the body, so the dart board did not suspect the scarface.
This dart, it is said that the goods are significant, the value is very high, from Taizhou to Qingzhou, along the way must be troublesome, Yu always thought about the lack of people, only to enter the dart bureau for two years of scarface old five shouted, at least one more helper, maybe there is a great use.
Later, when he came back from transporting the darts, Scarface said that he was familiar with this place, and he led the brothers of the dart bureau to take a shortcut, which could save half a day's journey, but he didn't expect to be shuttling in the dense forest swamp, so several brothers contracted the miasma.
Mr. Yu asked Scarface Lao Wu why this road is so difficult and dangerous, and there is still a miasma.
Scarface explained that he had come when he had taken a dart before, and now he had walked less in the dart game, and he accidentally got lost, so he didn't fall into the miasma.
Mr. Yu turned his head and thought: "After all, this scar-faced old five has been injured for the dart game, if you suspect him just because he is holding a water scoop, I am afraid it will chill the hearts of the brothers again." ”
The scar-faced old five said to Mr. Yu at this moment: "Mr. Yu, in the past two years, I have been born and died for the dart game, and I have suffered a lot of knives, so it can be said that my body is incomplete, if you suspect that I have poisoned the snake spirit grass because I am holding a water scoop, then why don't you suspect that it is this old Taoist and Taoist boy who did it? I have seen that they are wrong, after all, only they know that snake spirit grass and angelica leaves can cure miasma." ”
When Qin Chuan heard what Scarface said, he couldn't help but say angrily: "Hey, don't spew blood, I sat with you before, I didn't put anything in the bucket, and besides, after I drank a few sips of mountain spring water, I would have rested a long time ago, I can't poison myself myself, right?"
The scar-faced old five said with a smile: "I went with you to pick snake spirit grass before, but I remember that you picked five plants, but in the end you only used two, so let me ask you, where did the remaining three snake spirit grass go?"
Hearing this, everyone stared at Lao Dao and Qin Chuan.
Seeing this, Qin Chuan stammered a little and said, "I, I, I...... I drank so much that I don't know where to throw it?"
The scar-faced old five shook his head and said: "You said that it was a coincidence, only when you were drinking, you were next to the bucket, and now you say that this snake spirit grass is gone, I think, you two are the most suspicious." ”
Qin Chuan replied, "In front of you before, I drank a few sips of water in this bucket. ”
"Then what's the matter!" Scarface Lao Wu said as if he knew it well at this moment: "Since you know that this snake spirit grass mixed with angelica leaves can solve this miasma, then you naturally know how to solve the toxicity of this snake spirit grass." Therefore, you can take a few more sips, and it will not get in the way! I think that you took advantage of our inattention and put this snake spirit grass in it, and when we all drank the poisonous water, you two can sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman. ”
Qin Chuan was speechless at the moment, and stepped forward a few steps to find the scar-faced old five theory, Mr. Yu stopped his head when he saw this and said, "In this way, you two are indeed the most suspicious. ”
Qin Chuan couldn't tolerate others wronging him, and he was anxious for a while, and tears began to appear in his eyes.
Scarface saw it, but said mockingly: "Hypocrisy, if someone sees through the poisonous plan, you will sell and cry to survive, hmph, I already knew that there was a problem between the two of you, but I didn't expect that it was to poison us and swallow this goods alone." Brothers, beware, these two people are afraid that there is still poison on them. ”
Hearing this, Qin Chuan scolded: "Guapi, you actually framed me, I fought with you." After that, he picked up the stone next to him and was about to throw it over, first smashing this nonsense-filled scar-faced old man to death. Unexpectedly, his wrist was clasped by Mr. Yu's head, and he couldn't move, Qin Chuan screamed in pain.
Seeing this, everyone pulled out the cold knife on their waists, as before, the tips of the knives were all aimed at Lao Dao and Qin Chuan, and it seemed that they had already determined that these two people were the ones who poisoned them.
And the few dart brothers who had just relieved the suffering of the miasma were also embarrassed to raise their cold knives.
Seeing this scene, the old Taoist standing behind Qin Chuan touched his beard and said, "Mr. Yu, can you listen to the old man." ”
Mr. Yu nodded his head and said, "You say, it's okay." In his hand, he was holding Qin Chuan, unwilling to let go.
Seeing this, Lao Dao was not annoyed and said: "This snake spirit grass has two leaves, one purple and one green, after being picked, this juice will flow out from the surface of the leaves, ordinary people touch the snake spirit grass with their hands It is very likely to be contaminated with color, and it is difficult to eliminate this blue and purple color in less than a day, so let's look at this brother's palm, don't we know?"
When the scar-faced fifth heard this, he hurriedly wiped his right palm on his trouser leg a few times while it was dark.
Mr. Yu turned his head and heard Lao Dao's words, turned to the scar-faced old five and said: "Old five, the clear one is self-purifying, turbid and turbid, spread out your hands, let us see, if you are wrong, I will naturally give you justice." After all, the lives of so many brothers are in my hands, and I have to guard against them. ”
When the scar-faced fifth heard this, he also shook his head and said, "You still can't trust me." I'd rather believe in outsiders than believe me, I was born and died for the dart game, Mr. Yu, you really make me chill. ”
Mr. Yu laughed, but still insisted: "As the leader of the dart game, I would rather blame you and apologize in the future than let my brothers die in a different place because of my negligence." ”
Seeing that Mr. Yu insisted on his head so much, Scarface Lao Wu also sighed and said: "Since Mr. Yu is so insistent, then I will meet your wishes, brothers, you can take a good look at it......" Before Scarface Lao Wu finished speaking, he rushed towards the nearest person next to him and buckled his neck.
It turned out that this person was Wang Dagui, this person had just recovered from the miasma, and his physical strength was quite lacking.
The speed was so fast that many people present did not react. It turns out that Scarface is a strong man! This can explain why he was able to survive after so many robberies.
Seeing this scene, there was no need for any explanation, everyone in the dart game already knew that Scarface was the one who poisoned him, so they aimed their weapons at him.
Mr. Yu put down Qin Chuan with a slight apology, and turned his head to look at the scar-faced old five.
Qin Chuan rubbed his sore wrist and ran to Lao Dao, cursing Mr. Yu tens of thousands of times in his heart.
Seeing that Qin Chuan was fine, Lao Dao looked at the scar-faced Lao Wu who was surrounded by everyone and said: "Actually, I lied to you, no matter who touches the snake spirit grass, there will be no color left on the hand, because the snake spirit grass is neither colorless nor tasteless." ”
When the scar-faced old five heard this, the hand that clasped Wang Dagui's neck tightened: "Bullnose Old Dao, from the time you appeared, I knew that you were not simple. Isn't that why you're here for this trip?"
Lao Dao shook his head and said, "I don't even know what this dart is, why do you want to covet it? ”
At this moment, the most anxious is Mr. Yu's head, this Wang Dagui is his distant nephew, followed a few darts, if something happens at this time, there is no way to go back to explain, but at this moment his life is in the hands of others, but there is nothing to be done.
After thinking for a long time, Mr. Yu turned his head and said: "Old Five, although I don't know your real name, but I have worked together for a long time, I naturally know who you are. ”
The scar-faced old five smiled at this moment: "Mr. Yu, don't you know at this moment? Two years ago, I entered your dart game, it was for the darts, and I missed the darts on my own two trips. Now this dart is even more valuable, how can I miss it? It's just that the sky is not as good as the people, and it has been ruined by this bull-nosed old way. ”
The meaning of Scarface's words is very obvious, there are already other people waiting behind him to prepare for the robbery.
Hearing this, the people of the dart bureau really knew that the scar-faced old five had always been the internal response of the bandits, so he revealed the whereabouts of the dart bureau to others, and even introduced the people of the dart bureau into the swamp and infected with miasma, and tried to poison the mountain spring water that everyone drank, almost making the brother of the dart bureau die, thinking of this, everyone present couldn't help but sweat coldly, but the hand holding the knife was grasped tighter.
Lao Dao and Qin Chuan stood behind without saying a word, and they were not interested in interfering in the internal affairs of the dart game.
Mr. Yu took a few steps forward and said: "I know that you are here for the dart, but you have promised the owner, that is, you can't hand it over to others, otherwise it will ruin the reputation of the dart game, which is much more important than my life." Therefore, if you want a dart, you naturally know that this is impossible, it is better for you to let Wang Dagui go, I will definitely let you live, so you will not lose. ”
When the scar-faced old five heard this, he snorted coldly and said, "They raised the cold knife, they must be ready to do it at any time." ”
Mr. Yu put his head down, motioned for everyone to put down the cool knife, and said to the scar-faced old five: "I, Yu, do what I say, don't worry, you let Wang Dagui go, and I will let you go." ”
The scar-faced old five said without any anxiety: "I can't trust you, bring a horse over, and the others quickly retreat." ”
Mr. Yu put his head on the saddle of a guy from the dart game, and drove the horse to the side of Scarface's old five, and the others waited fifty steps back to watch.
Seeing this, the scar-faced old five knocked Wang Dagui unconscious and put him on the saddle, then turned over and got on the horse, and galloped along the trail, seeing that the people of the Dongfu Dart Bureau did not follow, he threw Wang Dagui down halfway and disappeared into the dense forest.
Qin Chuan's anger did not subside at this moment, and he asked the old man beside him: "Why didn't they directly kill this Scarface with their swords, and even let him run away." ”
Lao Dao yawned and said: "You are really a martial arts master, there are as many swordsmen as mustard, not to mention that this is so far away, even if you are a swordsman in the Gathering Spirit Realm, you can only do nothing." ”
Mr. Yu turned his head and saw that Wang Dagui was thrown down, and hurriedly stepped forward with everyone holding torches, leaving Lao Dao and Qin Chuan to rest here, a gust of mountain wind blew, Qin Chuan shivered and said: "How do I feel that someone is staring at us." ”
