Chapter 327, Poisoning
Mu Yanran was stunned for a moment, looked around, turned back to point at herself, and asked, "Me?" ”
The old man's gaze seemed to fall on her through the hood, Mu Yanran only felt panicked, and couldn't help leaning towards Mu Jin, and then looked at Tang Xiao.
Tang Xiao was still motionless, like a stone statue, Mu Jin pulled Mu Yanran behind him, arched his hand and said: "Thank you seniors for your kindness, the little sister has a temperament, I'm afraid I'm going to surprise my seniors." ”
The old man smiled in a rough voice: "It's okay, young man." ”
Mu Yanran rolled her eyes, shook her head and said, "I won't sit with you bad old man." ”
"Little sister Hugh is rude!" Mu Jin said in a stern voice.
Mu Yanran glanced at the old man, snorted, and walked straight to Tang Xiao's side, Tang Xiao still didn't react, as if he hadn't heard their conversation, and he hadn't seen Mu Yanran coming.
Mu Yanran sat down beside him, looked at the old man and said, "I want to sit with this good-looking son, old man, why are you wearing a hat, are you hiding from someone?" ”
The old man didn't seem to expect Mu Yanran to ask like this, so he paused for a moment, and then smiled: "Yes, someone wants to kill the old man, and the old man escaped all the way from southern Xinjiang, hey, it seems that he can't escape today." ”
The old man's giggling laughter made Mu Yanran lose goosebumps again, Mu Yanran reached out and touched her arm, couldn't help but look at Tang Xiao, and said, "Then you have done a lot of bad things, right?" Otherwise, who would have nothing to do to chase you so far? ”
She put her hands on her cheeks and looked innocent, indescribably cute and cute, but the old man's laughter became more and more cruel: "The old man is a bad person, but the person who wants to kill the old man is also a bad person." ”
"Oh, it's the nest?" Mu Yanran turned her head and asked Mu Jin, "Brother, is that what you mean?" ”
Mu Jin cupped his forehead, "Almost." ”
Mu Yanran looked like a child who had been praised, and turned her head with a smile, "You turned against another bad guy because you want to monopolize your spoils, right?" ”
The old man didn't speak, but Mu Yanran could feel that his gaze was falling on him, Mu Yanran blinked, and continued: "Hmm, you said that you came from southern Xinjiang, I heard that the place in southern Xinjiang is full of poison, flowers and plants are poisonous, and small animals are also poisonous, it's terrible, what do you have to fight about?" ”
The rain outside had almost stopped, and the stone statue named Tang Xiao beside Mu Yanran finally moved, and his palm moved to the hilt of the sword.
Mu Yanran glanced at him quietly, and smiled at the old man: "The rain has stopped, I'm leaving, take care senior!" ”
The moment she stood up, Tang Xiao suddenly became difficult, and the old man also flew up, the two of them moved amazingly fast, and before the people in the tea shop noticed what was happening, the two of them had already turned into two afterimages and left the tea shop, Mu Yanran chased after her, and Mu Jin stopped her quickly.
"What are you going to do?"
"I'll help Tang Xiao!"
"Just don't mess with him." Mu Jin said helplessly.
Mu Yanran sat down dejectedly: "I don't want to make trouble for him, I just want to go over and take a look." ”
She looked up at Mu Jin, her big eyes were full of water, what Mu Jin was most afraid of was her move, so she had to compromise, "You follow me and don't run around." ”
Mu Yanran grinned and grabbed the hem of his clothes: "I know that little uncle is the best." ”
Mu Jin flicked her smooth forehead lightly: "At this time, you know to call me little uncle." ”
The two followed the traces of their fight all the way to a small forest at the bottom of the mountain, Mu Yanran suddenly saw a bloodstain, she was startled, pulled Mu Jin's sleeve and said in a panic: "This can't be Tang Xiao's blood, right?" ”
Mu Jin looked down and picked up a piece of clothing from the bushes on the side, Mu Yanran sighed softly and snatched the piece of clothing away: "This is Tang Xiao's." She looked along the bushes, where a tree had been cut off at the waist, and a tree next to it had been slashed three times, and the whole bark had almost fallen off.
Mu Yanran imagined the scene of the two of them fighting, and couldn't help but be frightened, pulling Mu Jin and continuing to chase over there, but Mu Jin grabbed her and said, "Don't move." ”
Mu Yanran was stunned: "What's wrong?" ”
"Here," he pushed aside a pile of grass, a purple flower snake suddenly opened its mouth and pounced towards him, Mu Jin stretched out his hand and drew his sword, the cold light flashed that the snake had broken into two, but the snake's venom spewed out, Mu Jin pulled Mu Yanran, the purple venom splashed on the back of his hand, and the skin instantly turned black.
"Ah Jin!" Mu Yanran screamed, Mu Jin covered her mouth, raised her head and looked around, because it had just rained, it was quiet in the woods, Mu Jin forcibly pressed the dizziness in her head, and helped Mu Yanran weakly, "Let's get out of here." ”
It is impossible for this kind of snake to appear in the capital, the old man said that he came from southern Xinjiang, then there is a chance that the old man fell here, maybe he still has a poison on his body, Tang Xiao is powerful, the old poison does not seem to be a simple person, maybe Tang Xiao really can't help him.
Mu Jin wiped the snake blood on the sword, and another sword cut the back of his hand, releasing the black poisonous blood, he cut a big hole, and the bushes soon became black and red, Mu Yanran tore off a piece of cloth from his skirt and quickly bandaged Mu Jin, and the two chased all the way along the traces of the fight, until sunset, they finally arrived in the capital, and Tang Xiao stood at the gate of the city, and was stopped by the people guarding the city and asked for a search.
Mu Jin bothered his spirits, walked over and patted Tang Xiao's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Brother Tang, why did you come to the capital?" Don't let me know in advance, I'll have someone to receive you! ”
Tang Xiao looked at him inexplicably, the person guarding the city obviously knew Mu Jin, and when he saw him, he smiled and said, "Second Master Mu, why do you have time to come to the capital today?" ”
"Accompany the eldest lady to the White Horse Temple to ask for a signature." As he spoke, Mu Jin took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and put it in the man's hand, and said, "This is my friend, and I ask the military master to let him go all the way in my face." ”
The city keeper's eyes were straight when he saw the silver in his hand, and he might not have so much money to guard the city for a year, so he let go without saying a word: "Since it is a friend of the second master, it is a friend of the next one, please, please." ”
Tang Xiao didn't seem to understand how this person could change his face so quickly, and he was still fierce at him, and now when he saw Mu Jin, it was like seeing his own father and mother?
He glanced at Mu Jin's face again, knowing that he was obviously poisoned, although he had a way to enter the city, and he didn't care about Mu Jin's help, but this favor did let Mu Jin help, and this favor was indeed owed.
He reached out and grabbed Mu Jin's wrist and pinched his pulse, Mu Jin's eyes darkened, and he grabbed Mu Yanran's shoulder on the side dangerously and held it, and said with a smile: "It's okay, go into the city and find a doctor to take a look." ”
"You've been poisoned, and only that old poison has an antidote." Tang Xiao said in a deep voice.
Mu Jin saw that Tang Xiao had a double vision, but he was still strong and did not faint, he frowned vigorously, shook his head again, Tang Xiao made a wooden face and didn't say a word, and directly hit Mu Jin with a hand knife on his neck.
Mu Yanran was dumbfounded: "Ah, Ah Jin......"
"Let's send him to the hospital first, the old poison has entered the capital, I'll go find him."
Mu Yanran nodded, stretched out her hand to help Mu Jin, Tang Xiao carried Mu Jin on her back, and said, "Are you familiar with the capital?" Lead the way. ”
Mu Yanran glanced at the unconscious Mu Jin worriedly, and then beckoned, "Follow me." ”
Finding a place to settle Mu Jin, Tang Xiao turned around and left, Mu Yanran was about to follow, Tang Xiao said: "You stay here to take care of - is he your brother or your uncle?" ”
Mu Yanran didn't expect Tang Xiao to actually listen to their conversation, but she didn't have the heart to explain to him at this time, so she waved her hand and said, "Whatever, anyway, we are not related by blood, you go to the old man to ask for an antidote." ”
Tang Xiao turned around to leave, but Mu Yanran caught up with two more steps and said, "You must come back!" ”
Tang Xiao glanced at her meaningfully, then nodded, mumbled, and disappeared into the medical hall in a blink of an eye.
Mu Yanran didn't know how long she waited in the medical hall, during which Mu Jin launched a high fever, the doctor in the medical hall was really helpless against the snake venom, Mu Jin's fever couldn't go down, and a few times she couldn't even feel his pulse, Mu Yanran looked at Mu Jin, blaming herself in her heart, holding Mu Jin's hand and praying that Tang Xiao would come back soon.
Tang Xiao came back wearing a blood-stained robe, and when he came back, his steps were a little staggering, Mu Yanran saw that he was almost about to burst into tears, so he hurriedly went over to support him and asked, "How are you?" ”
Tang Xiao shook his head: "I'm fine." He stretched out his blood-stained hand with a small medicine bottle in his palm: "This is the antidote." ”
Mu Yanran took the antidote and fed it to Mu Jin, watching Mu Jin's face gradually improve, and finally spit out a mouthful of black blood, Mu Yanran finally breathed a sigh of relief, and Tang Xiao had already cleaned herself up and walked up to her refreshed.
Mu Yanran said: "What about the old poison? ”
Tang Xiao said lightly: "It's dead." ”
Mu Yanran was silent for a moment, and laughed: "Such a bad guy, he is innocent." ”
Tang Xiao showed a very faint smile and didn't speak, Mu Yanran leaned over a little more, rubbed against him, and asked, "Are you hungry?" Shall I make you something to eat? I'm pretty good at my craft. ”
Tang Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then nodded slowly: "Thank you." ”
Afterwards, Tang Xiao ate a meal with good craftsmanship in the legend, and he thought that the reason why Mu Yanran was so confident was probably because Mu Jin was used to it.
But Mu Yanran still blinked at him: "How is it?" ”
Tang Xiao swallowed the unripe eggplant with difficulty, nodded and took two mouthfuls of rice in a muffled voice, and said vaguely: "It's okay." ”
Mu Yanran immediately ran to harass Mu Jin with a smile, and Mu Jin, who had just woken up, turned her head to look at Tang Xiao, and clearly expressed a meaning in her eyes: Big brother, I feel sorry for you.
Tang Xiao finished eating this unique meal, and felt that he didn't have so hard to fight against the old poison, he put away the dishes and chopsticks, and Mu Yanran had already pounced like a butterfly: "Don't move, I'll clean it up." ”
