Vicissitudes Chapter 209 Eliminate evil
The moonlight was hazy, the flames were vigorous, and the dry wood in the fire crackled from time to time.
"Actually, when I first entered the mountain, I was just out of caution and beware of nonsense, and I didn't know if he was good or bad. But when I arrived in this red mist forest, I had to be reminded by him, escape the trap, and listen to his words, I was relieved of my suspicions, and I felt that he was a kind person. But after separating, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred to Hu Tu to stop them from escaping, but he was repulsed. The two of them are not strong, and Hu Tu's performance is even worse than them, and it is difficult for him to protect himself with such strength when he enters the mountain alone, so how is it possible? So I suspect that he did it on purpose, just to let us relax our vigilance, but unfortunately he pretended to be too much and missed the horse's feet. Then I thought about it carefully, Hu Tu had been talking to us since he entered the mountain, and I thought he was trying to find out who was in charge of the four of us, so that he could do it. But it also makes it easier for us to be on guard, as long as I'm on my guard. But this is all my speculation, I can't be sure, so I didn't tell you, first, so as not to wronged good people and hurt people's hearts. The second is that he doesn't want him to see the clues, so he has a defense. Zhao Ting took the initiative to explain.
Zhao Ting is reasonable, if Li Cao hadn't been troubled, he wouldn't have been seriously injured. And he and Zhao Ting have no worries, and they attack with all their might, and Hu Tu can't escape so easily.
Zu Zhenlin thought about it, but he could only lament, the world was unpredictable, and there was nothing to be done.
"Even if Li Cao is injured, I can't stand him, but fortunately he looks different from ordinary people, otherwise my life will be lost, then my sin will be even greater. Zhao Ting said apologetically.
"Miss Zhao doesn't have to care too much, no one wants to do this. Zu Zhenlin could only comfort, originally he wanted to say that Li Cao knew that his heart was on the right side, so he would rush over to block the sword with his body, but in the end, he didn't say it, so let Zhao Ting think of his kindness of saving him with death. Judging from Li Cao's determination at that time, I am afraid that he knew that it was death, and he did not hesitate, right?
Zhao Ting nodded and said, "Although Hu Tu was injured by me, it was only a minor injury, I don't think he will give up, so on the road, we have to be more careful." ”
"Yes, he let Hu Tu go, leaving us with trouble, he should have come out of the mountain before us, and may ambush us. Zu Zhenlin guessed.
"I'm afraid that he will rush to the front of our road from other places and put obstacles everywhere, which will make it even more troublesome. Zhao Ting worried.
"Well, it seems that we had better find another way out of the mountain, don't you know if there is a way?" Zu Zhenlin pondered.
"I've asked, and the two of them don't know any other way out of the mountains. Alas, originally the guide will generally find two or three, if it is two guides, it is simpler, one route into the mountain, one route out of the mountain. If there are three people, it will be more troublesome, and you will have to go back and forth a few more times. Although it can be guarded against, it is still disturbing because they don't know each other's way. I thought it would be safer for us to find two people who were familiar with the same route, but it backfired, and now it's a hidden danger. Zhao Ting said bitterly.
"Then we have to be careful. Zu Zhenlin said helplessly, and after speaking, he couldn't help but clench the short sword in his hand, and his muscles were exposed. Thinking of being teased by others, he was furious, thinking of Li Cao's serious injury and coma, and he wanted to return him with a sword immediately.
"It's a rare confusion. Zu Zhenlin gritted his teeth.
As the night passed, the fish belly was white in the east. Zu Zhenlin picked up Li Cao on his back and began to follow Zhao Ting out of the mountain, along the way, be careful and vigilant in case of accidents. But fortunately, there was no ambush on the road, and it was smooth and unimpeded.
At noon on this day, the sun was shining and the weather was hot, and everyone rested by the stream and in the shade of the trees. Li Cao woke up slowly, thirsty and speechless. Zu Zhenlin hurriedly helped him up and fed him water.
Li Cao's breath was weak, and his face was pale. When he woke up, his face was full of shame, and after drinking the water, he struggled and said, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble." ”
"Big brother, what do you say? Don't think about it, take care of your injuries. Zu Zhenlin comforted.
"That's it, don't think nonsense, if you hadn't saved me desperately, how could I have been safe? Zhao Ting also said.
Li Cao's face was full of bitterness, "Miss, Zhenlin don't need to comfort me, I know everything." If I hadn't been troubled, I wouldn't have let that kid run away? And the eldest lady doesn't have to be careless, I don't want to die, in fact, I have long known that my heart looks different from others, and I was born on the right side, and I was able to survive because of this. That's why I dared to rush up to block the sword. ”
Zu Zhenlin held his forehead with his hand, which was really sincere.
"Even so, you protected me with serious injuries, and I am grateful to you. As for the rest, don't think about it anymore, the past is over. Zhao Ting said sincerely.
Li Cao still has to speak.
Zhao Ting interrupted: "Okay, you don't have to work hard, just rest." ”
Li Cao was helpless and could only keep his mouth shut.
Suddenly, Tian Qingyun and Chen Qingniu fell to the ground, their faces were hideous and distorted, and they shouted in pain, "Miss Zhao, this is poison, it's going to hurt me, give me the antidote, please, please......"
That day, Hu Tu shouted that Tian and Chen were not eating lethal poison, so Zhao Ting did not give them the antidote again, and wanted to test the authenticity. Today, after the ten-day period, they immediately had a seizure.
Zhao Ting watched coldly and was indifferent.
Tian Qingyun and Chen Qingniu were hoarse, rolling on the ground, their voices gradually hoarse, and finally they were motionless and no longer sound.
Zhao Ting squatted down and checked the situation of the two of them, and found that they were not dead, and there was still a faint breath. The two gradually recovered, opened their eyes, and staggered to their feet, sweating profusely.
Tian Qingyun said hoarsely: "Miss Zhao, you promised us that we would let us go, why don't you talk nonsense?"
His words were full of resentment.
"Well, why don't I talk, aren't you two okay?" Zhao Ting said with a smile.
"But we almost died of pain just now, why don't you give us an antidote?" asked Chen Qingniu.
"Didn't Hu Tu say that day that the medicine he gave was not fatal? Now it has been confirmed that what he said is true, what's the point of being in a little pain?" Zhao Ting smiled.
"You...... Miss Zhao wants to borrow poison to avenge the previous revenge, and now the revenge is also avenged, and you are also familiar with this road, can you fulfill your previous promise and let us go?" Tian Qingyun asked in a deep voice.
"If you leave, will you retaliate when you come in front of us?" Zhao Ting asked.
"No, thank Miss Zhao for her kindness, it's too late to spare our lives. And I don't dare, the girl is amazing, and it already scares us. Tian Qingyun hurriedly said.
"I didn't expect you to be so talkative. Zhao Ting laughed, "Originally, I didn't want to let you go, because you are so hateful, but now I can agree to spare one of you, and the two of you will discuss who wants to live and who wants to die." ”
"Miss Zhao, you clearly promised us that as long as we take you to the place and make atonements, you will let us go, you can't be untrustworthy. Please let the girl let us go, we have suffered so much just now that we almost died, it should be enough for the girl to be angry, so let us go. Zu Gongzi, Li Gongzi, Miss Leng, you can let us go. Tian Qingyun and Chen Qingniu begged bitterly.
"Well, let's try and see who can survive, and I'll spare him. Zhao Ting decided.
Tian Qingyun and Chen Qingniu were still begging bitterly, and they had no intention of doing anything.
Zhao Ting sneered: "It's quite affectionate, since you don't do it, then don't blame me for being ruthless, so I have to kill both of you." Don't worry, I will give the money and spirit stones to your family. ”
"Miss Zhao, you are too vicious, as brothers, how can we kill each other?" Tian Qingyun shouted.
"That's it, Miss Zhao, please fulfill your promise and let us go. Chen Qingniu was still pleading.
"It seems that the love between you is quite deep, let me say again, if you don't do it, then I have to make a move, and I won't be left alone when the time comes. Zhao Ting said coldly.
"Don't try to stir up a relationship between our two brothers, if you don't keep your word, you will be punished, you ......" Tian Qingyun cursed.
Just as Tian Qingyun was scolding, he suddenly felt a pain in his back, and his body flew out involuntarily. After he landed, he looked at Chen Qingniu in disbelief and swallowed the blood that poured up his throat.
Chen Qingniu succeeded in the sneak attack, took advantage of the momentum to pursue, swept forward, and rushed straight to Tian Qingyun, saying in his mouth: "I'm sorry, I don't want to die yet." ”
Tian Qingyun looked at his brother who was determined to kill him, glared angrily, his qi climbed, and his aura gushed out from his body. Chen Qingniu looked at him in a posture of fighting to the death, and the aura in his palm was even more majestic, but to his surprise, he actually gave up resistance and slapped Tian Qingyun in the chest smoothly.
Tian Qingyun received a palm, desperately refusing to retreat, and vomiting blood irrepressibly. He grabbed Chen Qingniu's arm and looked lonely, "Alas, this is retribution, brother, you can live well, I just ask you to take care of my family." ”
When Chen Qingniu heard this, his eyes couldn't help but redden, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't want to die, don't worry, I will take care of your family and treat your child as my own, even better than my own." ”
"Hopefully. After Tian Qingyun finished speaking, he fell to the ground and died.
Chen Qingniu immediately said to Zhao Ting: "Miss Zhao, now that I have done what you said, can I go?"
"I want to ask you a question, how did you get their things after you took people into the mountains and used the red mist forest to poison them? After you got them, did you let them go?" Zhao Ting asked.
Chen Qingniu's face changed, and he said in a trembling voice: "What does Miss Zhao mean?"
"I think you must have threatened to kill them at the time, and then tempted them to say that if you hand over your things, you would let them go, right?" Zhao Ting said firmly.
"Miss Zhao is really smart, and she guesses it right at the first time. Chen Qingniu flattered.
"Then did you let them go?" Zhao Ting asked.
"I ...... Girl, this has nothing to do with letting me go. Chen Qingniu said hesitantly.
"Why doesn't it matter? I will do the same to the villain who does not believe in his word. Zhao Ting said in a deep voice.
Chen Qingniu's face changed greatly, and he said inwardly: "You ......"
Before he could finish speaking, he fled in a hurry, trying to run to an unknown place in order to survive.
Zhao Ting's expression was stunned, and she instantly slapped a palm, and purple thunder was born in her palm, directly knocking Chen Qingniu away. After Chen Qingniu landed, he vomited blood, and there was no sound for a while.
Li Cao's face couldn't bear it.
Zu Zhenlin also shook his head.
"Why, you don't agree with me killing them?" Zhao Ting asked.
"Kill them, I have no opinion. But why bother to play with them at the end?" Zu Zhenlin didn't understand.
Li Cao also nodded yes.
"Hmph, isn't that too cheap for them? I just want them to taste what it's like to be deceived. Eliminate the evil, what are the means to eliminate the evil, and you can't just let the good people be deceived. Zhao Ting said solemnly.
