Chapter 21: Poisoning
She shouted a few times, but no one answered.
At this time, it was already the second watch, except for the people who patrolled regularly, there was no sound in the five tents, and most of them fell asleep. Where will Dali go?
The two went to find Ahuda, but Ahuda was by Minglang's side. Ming Lang has been in a bad mood and didn't go out in the tent after dinner. Ahuda was not at ease, so he stayed in his tent. When the Tairan siblings entered, they saw Minglang studying the map under the lamp, Xiao Wa lying at his feet, and Ahuda quietly reading a book. Yan Ran's eyes widened in surprise, she really couldn't imagine that Ahuda also had such an elegant and quiet time.
Hearing that Dali was missing, Ahuda also became anxious, saying that she was not looking for him in the future.
Things are getting unusual. Yan Ran left him to find Tai Ran, and came back after a conversation, where would she go in such a quarter of an hour?
Ahuda mobilized eighteen warriors (now there were only seventeen), and everyone scattered around the tent to search. Hopefully she's just out for a walk.
Yan Ran shouted as she walked, and walked out for two miles, but she didn't see a single person. Calmly grabbed her. Now the enemy is eyeing the enemy, and it is very unsafe to stay far from the place.
Eighteen warriors also returned one after another, and nothing was found.
Ahuda was manic. Although Dali is his cousin, the two have grown up together since childhood, and their temperaments are the same, and he can't accept the fact that she is gone. Minglang said: "Could it be that those assassins did it again and captured Dali?" ”
Tai Ran and Yan Ran glanced at each other. Everyone knew in their hearts that there was no other possibility.
Minglang felt sorry for Ahuda: "Dahula, it seems that I have caused you ......"
Ahuda frowned, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it after all.
Calmly suggested that each of them rest first, and then expand the search area at dawn. Ahuda had no choice but to acquiesce.
Calmly sent Yanran back to the tent. When Yanran lifted the curtain, she suddenly screamed.
Dali sat quietly on the mattress, her hands on her cheeks, thoughtful, as if she was still waiting for Yanran to come over with Tairan.
Yan Ran was surprised and delighted, and walked over and shouted, "Dali! Where have you been? Are you okay? ”
Calmly walked into the tent.
Dali shook her head and said to Yanran, "I've been playing around for a while." ”
She didn't even look at her.
Yan Ran faintly felt that she seemed to be a little different, but what was different was it, and she couldn't say it for a while.
When Ahuda heard the news, he rushed to see Dali in the tent in good manner, and shouted angrily: "I don't know how to say hello when I go out, so I'm worried in vain!" ”
Dali lazily raised her eyes to look at Ahuda: "Hmm, I'm sorry! ”
Seeing that Dali was fine, Ahuda's spirit suddenly relaxed, yawned in a row, and left with a greeting to Tai Ran Yanran.
Calmly took his leave, and Yanran sent him out of the tent. The two glanced at each other and said, "Don't you feel wrong?" ”
Nodding calmly. "She's very wrong......" He groaned for a moment and said, "Mr. Qiu wants to agree with me on a plan to lure the enemy, and he will definitely have no sleep tonight." Be vigilant, too. Tomorrow I'll go to town and buy a carriage so you can catch up on your sleep. ”
He took out two small firecracker-like things from his arms: "This is the spark of news that I used to communicate with the sword when I was on the mountain, and you just need to pull the twist and throw it into the air." ”
Yanran took the small firecracker and sent it away. Back in the tent, Dali was already asleep face down on her mattress.
Yan Ran lay down beside her lightly, not even taking off her clothes. Dali's breathing was steady, and she thought, maybe she was thinking too much.
There are too many things I have experienced this day, and as soon as I calm down at this moment, the scenes will reappear in my mind. For a while, I thought that Ahuda was Ashina's son, my half-brother, and I thought about the terrifying battle of Luming River, and I thought about riding with my brother on the lightning god steed.
I don't know how long it took, Dali on her side suddenly let out a moan. She sat up, and saw that Dali was still lying on her side, her body trembling, and her nose made a strange moan, light and long, as if it were happy and painful. Yanran was a little stunned, not knowing whether to wake her up. Dali suddenly sat up with a "whew", stared at Yanran in a daze, and said, "I want to go out." ”
Yanran shook her head: "Dali, it's late at night, you can't go out." ”
Dali's eyes widened, the corners of her mouth pulled up strangely, and she showed a smile that made her heart chill: "I'm going out!" Come out with me! ”
"Dali, be sober, you can't go out now!" Yanran suspected that she was sleepwalking, but Dali stood up and walked out without hesitation. How could Yanran let her go out alone? Hurriedly got up and followed, and walked out of the tent.
Their small tent was in the middle of five tents, and she expected to see the patrols, and they would definitely stop Dali, but she found that the camping area was as silent as death, where had everyone gone? She remembered what Tairan said, could it be that she lured the enemy? She didn't dare to make a sound, she only prayed silently in her heart, hoping that her luck would not be so bad, and Dali was just sleepwalking.
Walking out of the camping area, Dali stopped. Yanran thought she was finally sober and hurried to catch up. Unexpectedly, Dali covered her mouth, clamped her under the armpit, and ran away to the southeast like the wind under her feet.
I don't know how long it took, Dali stopped and threw Yanran on the ground. Yanran spit out two mouthfuls of saliva, spit out the sweat smell of Dali's palms, and raised her head. A man in a black robe stood in front of them.
Dali smiled at the man and didn't speak. The man's hand was raised, and Dali fell on her back.
Yan Ran quietly took two steps back: "Who are you?" ”
"Little doctor, I heard that you will poison you?" The black-robed man spoke, his voice was soft and sweet, and it was actually a woman.
"This sister, why did you lure me here late at night?"
The black-robed woman laughed: "Your mouth is very sweet, but your life is not sweet, you are dying, I brought you here to take your life." ”
Yan Ran sighed: "As expected. You first bewitched Dali, made her obey you, and then used her to lure me in, right? ”
"Very smart!" The black-robed woman raised her hand: "Entrusted by people, loyal to people, accept death!" The five fingers of her hands were furious, and ten long nails glowed blue in the moonlight, and she grabbed Yanran at the head. Yan Ran hurriedly unfolded the phaseless step, avoiding the head-on blow. The black-robed woman missed a blow, toe a little, and rushed to Yan Ran's body with a "whoosh", blocking her retreat, and continued to stretch out her claws to grab her. The light skills of the two of them were not weak, and they caught up with the rabbit in the hazy moonlight.
Yan Ran smelled that her hands had a faint fishy smell, and knew that they were highly poisonous, and she couldn't help but be frightened. I wanted to reach out and take out the little firecracker again and again, but the woman in the black robe seemed to see that there was something hidden in her arms, so she just didn't give her a chance to be empty. After a while, only listening to the sound of "snort", Yan Ran dodged a little slower, and the clothes behind her were torn by the black-robed woman, almost grabbing her skin.
The black-robed woman laughed, threw the broken steps in her hand, and said to Yanran: "Little doctor, in fact, they are making a big fuss, with your martial arts, the third-rate characters in the rivers and lakes can kill you, and they even want me to deal with you!" ”
Yan Ran gasped and said, "That's because they exalted me too much." Anyway, who are you, can you let me die? ”
The black escort woman took off the hood on her head, revealing a snow-white face, apricot eyes, red lips, willow eyebrows, and about twenty years old. "My name is Wu Jiang, and the people in the rivers and lakes call me Poison Rose. Alas! It's useless to tell you, you don't understand fart. Wu Jiang said in frustration. The little doctor in front of him is not from the rivers and lakes at all, how can he know her name?
"Sister Wu Jiang, you are very beautiful, why do you obey the orders of others and do murderous things?" Yan Ran was playing tricks with her while nervously thinking about a way to get out.
Wu Jiang saw through her trick: "Little doctor, don't use your brain, it's useless." She flicked her nails: "Today's Luminghe, the poison you use should be called bone erosion powder, that poison is too violent, and the poison I specially prepared for you is called ecstasy." Made with the powder of seven poisonous insects and the Soul Leaving Grass. Colorless, odorless, and scattered by the wind, it can make you fall asleep and then die, without any pain - how, do you feel heavy eyelids now? ”
When she flicked her nails, Yanran held her breath. But she doesn't have deep internal strength, and she can't hold her breath for long. Wu Jiang flicked ten fingers in a row, Yan Ran held his breath, and slammed back. In mid-air, he took out the Ruthless Flower and bit the leaf in his mouth.
Wu Jiang saw that she was going to escape, and laughed: "You can't escape, suffer death!" The figure was pulled out, and it pounced on Yanran's back like a big black bird.
Yanran's action of eating the leaves was facing away from Wu Jiang, so Wu Jiang didn't see it. Just as she was about to pounce on Yan Ran, she suddenly saw Yan Ran's body stagnate, falling straight like a broken kite.
Wu Jiang hoped that she was poisoned, but he suspected that she was cheating.
Yanran lay on the ground, taking advantage of Wu Jiang's hesitation, she finally took out the small firecracker in her arms and threw it out.
She was really poisoned.
The small firecracker shot into the air and exploded again.
Wu Jiang said viciously: "You are actually cheating! I'll kill you! ”
Seeing her black nails like ten daggers rushing towards her, Yanran smiled slightly: "Sister, you are so beautiful." ”
Wu Jiang trembled, and his hands stopped abruptly.
Yanran raised her hand and touched her face, pinching the ruthless flower in her palm.
Then, the world went dark......
