Chapter 41: The People of the Green Underworld [Four Watches]
Gu Nuochu was forced to give them some silver because he was afraid of the two of them, but who knew that these two people recognized him and followed him all the time. Gu Nuochu was already upset, but he didn't dare to do anything to the two. Angry, he said, "You can follow Young Master Ben if you want, but you have to help me earn money." I can't eat enough now, how can I have money to support you! ”
Gu Nuochu inadvertently knew that these two people would use poison, they were aliens from the Qing Netherworld, and they were driven out of the family after doing something wrong, and they flowed all the way to the capital of Xia Lai Kingdom. Gu Nuochu, who was obsessed with money, did not have any doubts because of this, but pondered how to use the two of them to make some money. After thinking about it for many days, he finally thought about it. found Ye Shengnan, who was also suffering from lack of money, and the two of them summed up.
These two people can administer poison and detoxify, and Gu Nuochu used them to attack those vendors. Because those people are the best to deal with, and it is also the easiest for him to observe whether the poison has any effect or not. made some requests to the two, but unexpectedly, the two of them were unexpectedly able to do things, which matched Nuochu's appetite. Half a month later, many people in Beijing had physical problems, and then they were bedridden and died later.
As soon as this news reached the ears of Gu Nuochu and Ye Shengnan, it made them extremely happy. Let those two people continue to do it, restaurants, teahouses, as long as it is a good place to start, they have all been there. More and more people are being poisoned, and the number of people dying is gradually increasing. The reason why Gu Nuochu and Ye Shengnan felt a little scared was that they learned that Lan Ruoyan had started to investigate this matter. They began to relent, no longer poisoning, but choosing to heal people.
That pharmacy was originally Gu Nuochu's own, built next to Huajie, and has always been maintained by selling medicine to the girls in those brothels. No one in the entire Gu family knew about this matter, let alone outsiders. Gu Nuochu will not appear there again except for going to the account to get money every month. So when Lan Ruoya went to check the pharmacy, she couldn't find him.
The first person they healed was a prostitute. When the woman returned, word spread that they could save lives. More and more people are coming, and even if they raise the price, there are still so many people who have to live. The large sum of money blinded the eyes of Gu Nuochu and Ye Shengnan, but they also realized that it was easy to make people suspicious if they focused everyone's eyes here, so they began to think about finding other pharmacies to cooperate, so that they could also cure these people's diseases. It's a pity that before they could implement this plan, they were all caught by Lu Zhiyao.
These two people are not hard bones, and after a beating, they should all be recruited. Lu Zhiyao personally interrogated the two, and the moves they used were all learned from his brother Xia before.
The truth of the matter made everyone angry, and there was another thing that worried them, that is, the two people that Gu Nuochu found.
With such a skill, you can live anywhere, so why bother to come all the way to the country of Charais to enter the capital? And they are still from the Qing Netherworld, which makes people care even more. Just two people can stir up such chaos in the capital, if every town sends two people and encounters bastards like Gu Nuochu and Ye Shengnan, then there is no need to send troops to attack, and Xia Lai Kingdom will also cause panic.
"I'm going to get those two guys." Lan Ruoyan stood up and turned to leave. Lu Zhiyao and a few other people sat at the table, and no one spoke for a while.
"Gu Nuochu and Ye Shengnan can't stay longer, the Nangong family has also started looking for them, and there is also Mu Wangye, sooner or later they will find out about us." Lu Zhiyao was silent for a long time, gritted his teeth and said: "Leaving them in the world is simply redundant. ”
"What does the master mean, to kill?" Ling Yi lowered his head and asked Lu Zhiyao what he meant, but he didn't hear Lu Zhiyao's answer.
Ling Yi slowly turned his head to look at Lu Zhiyao, this woman would always let them see a lot of different aspects from her. I thought that she was not a ruthless person, but today, I saw that the moves she used against Ye Shengnan and Gu Nuochu were not inferior to the methods they used when interrogating the enemy.
"Kill." Lu Zhiyao noticed Ling Yi's gaze, looked at him with four eyes, and slowly opened his mouth. "But you have to blame the Nangong family, don't show any horses, do you know the way?"
"Understood, I'll do it."
After Ling Yi left, Lu Zhiyao sat there with his forehead propped up, his brows furrowed. So many lives were lost because of the whims of these two people. How many families will be scattered because of them, and how many people will die because they have no money to cure their diseases. Everything made Lu Zhiyao feel the cruelty of reality again, it turned out that in this world, no money and no power mean that anyone can kill you. There's no reason for it, as long as they want to kill you, they can do it.
How ironic, but true.
For a moment, I suddenly missed Lin Yinan very much and wanted to return to his side.
During this time, Lu Zhiyao was protected too well, Lin Yinan handled almost everything well and took all the things that took care of his brain, so now, Lu Zhiyao felt so tired.
"Big Brother Bai, Brother Liu, I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you this time. We don't have enough manpower, and when Ling Yi and them come back, I'll tell you what to do. ”
"Okay, then we'll go out first. You're tired these days, too, and now that things have been sorted out, you should take a good rest and then think about other things. ”
Bai Lixuan nodded, got up and walked away after talking to Lu Zhiyao. Lu Zhiyao was the only one left in the room, and she also wanted to close her eyes and sleep well, but for some reason, as soon as she closed her eyes, she would think of those who died because of this disaster. Many, many unfamiliar faces appeared in Lu Zhiyao's mind, making her unable to dodge.
If it weren't for his luck to find out the facts, how many people would have died because of this? Lu Zhiyao didn't dare to imagine, and realized that the road ahead would be more and more difficult. Some people, being soft-hearted towards them, is simply torturing themselves.
Gu Nuochu and Ye Shengnan had already been immobilized by Lu Zhiyao, Ling Yi locked the two of them together, looking at Ye Shengnan's surprised expression when he recognized him, he smiled and said, "There's nothing to be surprised about, I was originally working for the Eighth Prince and the Eighth Imperial Concubine." ”
"You ...... Didn't you leave the capital? "There is a blood mark on Ye Shengnan's throat, which was drawn by Lu Zhiyao. The wound is not particularly deep, but it is not shallow, as long as Ye Shengnan moves a lot, or his voice is a little higher, he will feel pain, so at this time, his voice is very small, and people who are farther away will never hear it.
"If you leave, you can't come back?" Ling Yi hooked the corners of his mouth and stared playfully at the change in Ye Shengnan's expression. "You don't know who the people who brought you back are still in the Dao, do you? I'm telling you, it's the Eighth Imperial Princess. ”
The three words of the Eighth Imperial Concubine made Ye Shengnan lose his anger all of a sudden, and looked at Ling Yi fixedly, Ye Shengnan asked in a complicated mood: "Lu ...... Far away? ”
"Yes." Ling Yi nodded, and glanced at Gu Nuochu, who was still a little confused next to him. "You two have done a great job, let's go, I'll take you to a good place."
Ling Yi carried one in one hand and led the two out of the room. Lu Zhiyao stood in front of the window, watching Ling Yi take them to the backyard, leaning on the window frame top-heavy, thinking a lot.
Lan Ruoya hurriedly returned, and the look on her face made Lu Zhiyao know that something was wrong with Lu Dao at a glance. Hearing her say that the two people ran away, and I don't know where Lu Dao went, Lu Zhiyao's heart suddenly chuckled and sank.
"As long as you don't leave the capital, it's not a big deal. I'm not afraid of anything else, I'm just afraid that these two people will get in touch with the Nangong family. Ye Shengnan said that they are people from the Qing Underworld. Don't forget that Yi Nan is now at the border because of something, I always feel that there is something strange about this matter. Send someone to keep an eye on Nangong Mansion, even if these two people are really found by Nangong Lingfeng, I must arrest them, I can't let Nangong Lingfeng get his wish! ”
Lu Zhiyao told Lan Ruoya her decision with a firm attitude, and there was no time to rest at all, she strode out of the house to help Lan Ruoya find the whereabouts of the two people.
Lu Zhiyao originally came back to deal with Lu Yuan's expedition, thinking that he would go back to meet Lin Yinan after it was over. But seeing that so much time has passed, there are more and more troublesome things, and as soon as the two separate, there is no chance to meet.
In the border valley, Lin Yinan sat on the ground, leaning on the carriage and blowing the cool breeze, looking at the letter in his hand with burning eyes. Slowly raised his head, glanced at Su Mozi who walked in front of him, dodged her action of wanting to grab the letter, smiled slightly, and said softly: "I can't show you this." ”
"Cut." Su Mozi pursed her lips disdainfully, and sat opposite Lin Yinan. "It can't be written by your lady, so you can't read it, right?"
"You guessed it." Lin Yinan nodded happily, making Su Mozi look at him a little helplessly. "I'll tell you a serious matter, why didn't you see my old man when you came over this time? Or are you running out of business? ”
Lin Yinan didn't answer, but directly stretched out his hand and motioned for Su Mozi to take his pulse. Su Mozi frowned and pressed his wrist, and after a while, he said in a low tone, "You are really too bold." ”
"With you here, it's the same as the master, I can trust you." Lin Yinan's smile made Su Mozi feel uncomfortable at all, she didn't understand what Lin Yinan was all this for. The accumulation of toxins in his body for a long time is not to say that it can be solved by applying a few injections and taking a few medicines, and the emperor has been continuously poisoning him over the years to suppress him.
"Haven't you ever worried that your body will not be able to hold on to it one day?"
"I'm afraid it's not this what you're asking, right?" Lin Yinan's face did not have a trace of waves because of his physical condition. He looked at Su Mozi with a smile and said jokingly: "If you're really worried about me, help me go back early." I've had enough of this place. ”
