Chapter 489: Poisoning
489, [poisoning]
The woman elegantly picked up the teacup and took a sip, noticed Ruyi's gaze, and looked at each other coldly and sharply, Ruyi was stunned, and smiled a little awkwardly, this woman is definitely not very human, not to mention that she doesn't feel cold at all, but this one look seems to be able to see through other people's minds. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Ruyi clasped the stove in her hand with her fingernails, vaguely noticed that a cold air was pressing over, she looked up, it was the woman standing in front of the counter, staring at her inquiringly, she hid the embarrassment of being caught peeping just now, and smiled politely: "Hello, do you need anything?" ”
The woman looked at it for a while, and said curiously: "Your eyes are very unique, deep and dark, like stars, and like deep valleys. ”
Ruyi's fingers on the stove stopped, her face was a little unsightly, thinking that this woman saw the secret of Ruyi beads hidden in her eyes, and hurriedly closed her eyes: "The girl is really good at laughing, how can my eyes be so profound, but they are a little brighter than others', this ...... In fact, if you want to have bright eyes, you should eat more bright herbs, and that's what I do. ”
The woman smiled meaningfully: "So that's the case, then I have to go back and try it." ”
Ruyi was relieved to hear that the woman's attention had been diverted from herself.
The woman looked Ruyi up and down and asked, "Are you the new shopkeeper Ruyi of Ruyi Restaurant?" ”
Ruyi shook his head, reacting that people were asking about his identity, and nodded hurriedly: "It's me, there is a place where the hospitality is not good, please bear with me." ”
The woman smiled and waved her hand, indicating that Ruyi was too polite: "I'm here to invite the shopkeeper to have a drink with us." ”
Ruyi waved his hand and wanted to refuse, but he wanted to know what rare things they had in their hands, so he curiously followed the woman over and sat down.
During the conversation, Ruyi knew that the woman's name was Pranya, and on the way to visit Duan Xizi in the country of goddesses, the two foreigners Tayu and Cookie that they met by chance, although they changed into the costumes of the country of goddesses, they still couldn't hide the rudeness and barbarism of barbarians.
Knowing that they had rare medicinal materials in their hands and wanted to resell them to Duan Xizi, Praruo felt that everyone had the same destination, so he helped them pass through many checkpoints and came to the Holy Capital, and then when he went to Duan Hall to ask to see Duan Xizi, he knew that Duan Xizi had gone out to collect medicine, and if the time was short, it would be ten days and half a month, and if it was long, it might be several months.
If there is something to ask Duan Xizi, you have to wait until Duan Xizi comes back, and Ta Yu and Cookie have special identities, and the people of the Goddess Country hate the Barbarian Country extraordinarily, without the help of Pranya, they can't get out of the Goddess Country, and when they think of having rare treasures in their hands and being able to resell them successfully to make a lot of money, they also forget the danger of being in the wolf's den.
"Ta Yu, what kind of strange medicinal materials do you have in your hands that need to be sold to Dr. Ru?" Ruyi asked curiously to read.
All the way, she only knew that Ta Yu and Cookie threatened to resell strange medicinal herbs, but as for what it was, she didn't know too well, seeing Ruyi asked the doubts in her heart, and looked at the two of them with anticipation.
Ta Yu and Cookie glanced at each other, and didn't seem to believe Ruyi and Prajna very much, but said vaguely: "This treasure was exchanged for our two brothers' lives, so naturally I won't take it with me, and when the doctor comes back, I'll take it for you to see." ”
Ruyi can see that Tayu and Cookie are very cautious, and in the conversation between the banquets, people who don't seem to be liaring are full of curiosity, but they are also people's treasures, so they have to snuff out the flame of curiosity in their hearts.
Prajna looked thoughtfully at the wine in the glass, with a faint sadness and anxiety between his eyebrows and eyes.
Ruyi looked at her suspiciously: "Praruo, is there something you have to do with Doctor Ru?" ”
Praruo smiled faintly, hiding the sadness on his face, and laughed heartily, as if the depression just now was a wishful illusion: "I heard that Dr. Ru's medical skills are superb, and I specially came to ask for medical skills." ”
Ruyi nodded in disbelief, her instinct telling herself that it seemed as if she hadn't said anything.
At this time, suddenly there was a frightened scream from a box upstairs.
Ruyi was startled, quickly got up, and asked the guest who ran down from upstairs in a hurry, she grabbed the guest's arm and asked, "What happened upstairs?" ”
The guest pointed and pointed in the direction of the box, and said a little trembling in fright: "Dead man, dead man inside......
Ruyi frowned, how dare someone kill someone in Ruyi Restaurant?
She didn't have time to think about it, so she threw down the Pranya and rushed upstairs, pushing open the door of the box, and inside was a merchant from Beichen who was selling cloth and was foaming at the mouth on the table, and there were two companions scattered next to him, whose symptoms were the same as those of the merchant, and it seemed that he had also been poisoned.
Ruyi leaned over and probed her nose, fortunately, she still had breath, and she instructed Steward Chen and Xiaoer Wang Jie, who heard the voice and then rushed up: "Go to the Duan Hall and ask Dr. Morber, ...... quickly."
Wang Jie answered and was about to go out, but he heard Ruyi and said: "Wang Jie, you are in charge of this box, you leave me with something to ask, let Yu Fei go." ”
Steward Chen came in and looked at the miserable scene in the box, and shouted angrily, "What the hell is going on? Who poisoned the guests in the Ruyi Restaurant? ”
"Steward Chen, you go to appease the guests outside, just say that this is a performance specially prepared by the restaurant for everyone, go and ......" Ruyi frowned, the business of Ruyi Restaurant was not good, and at this time, it should not be possible to publicize this matter, it is best to calm things down, Steward Chen seems to be confused, and he is shouting and scolding here.
Steward Chen suddenly realized something, his face was full of embarrassment and chagrin, and he hurriedly withdrew, explaining to everyone, but the guests thought the performance was very interesting, and they laughed twice and passed.
Praruo didn't think that was the case, she went upstairs, looked at Ruyi sitting on the stool, crossed Erlang's legs and interrogated the little second Wang Jie in charge of this box: "Who else has come up to this box besides you to deliver drinks?" ”
Wang Jie thought for a while and shook his head: "Except for the small one, there are only three guests in the room, and no one comes in the middle." ”
Ruyi looked at the doors and windows in the box suspiciously, the air outside was cold today, the windows were closed from the inside, and there was only one front door, but Wang Jie said that except for him who went in to deliver food, he didn't see anyone in or out of the box, so there was no possibility that outsiders would break in and poison him.
While she was thinking, Praruo walked in, looked at the guests who had fallen to the ground, and then walked to the food on the table, staring at it for a while: "You can see that these vendors are from other places, and you didn't think that they were murdering each other?" ”
