Chapter 278 Bad smelling poison
Looking at the osmanthus cake in front of him, Long Xuhu stepped forward and sniffed it, and said angrily: "It smells quite fragrant, but ......" said, he looked up again and looked at the Fang Market in front of him, which was at least more than a mile long, and his heart was suddenly a little entangled.
The food on this street, no matter how big his stomach is, he will definitely not be able to eat it, so he naturally needs to have a choice. He still loves meat the most, and he doesn't particularly want to eat this osmanthus cake.
Hu Ximei saw that Long Xuhu hesitated at this time, and immediately said urgently: "Childe, buy some, this osmanthus cake not only smells fragrant, but also tastes sweet, if you don't taste it, it's really a pity." ”
Long Xuhu frowned and thought about it again, and sighed helplessly: "Forget it, I want to keep my stomach to eat meat, so I won't eat this." With that, he turned and prepared to leave.
Hu Ximei was suddenly a little dumbfounded, hurriedly grabbed the dragon beard, and said hurriedly: "Son, let's try it, it's not delicious and doesn't cost money." ”
In this era, where is there such a concept as "tasting"? Long Xuhu was stunned when he heard this, he was reluctant to buy a bunch of osmanthus cakes, but it was okay to taste one or two pieces, so he asked: "Can you taste it?"
Hu Ximei nodded hurriedly and said, "You can taste it, you can taste it, you don't need money to taste it." ”
Before Long Xuhu could speak, one of the attendants beside him said, "Long Gongzi, since this is the case, let's try it." He has lived in Chaoge City for more than ten years, but he has never heard of such a good thing.
Long Xuhu nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll taste a piece by ourselves." ”
Hu Ximei hesitated at this time, and hurriedly took three pieces of osmanthus cake and handed them to the three of them, but the three of them didn't pay attention, and when she handed over the piece of osmanthus cake to Long Xuhu, she used her little finger to lightly scratch it.
The two attendants took the osmanthus cake, and they couldn't wait to take a bite, and praised it repeatedly: "It's really a good craft, and it tastes really good." ”
Hu Ximei didn't care about responding to the words of the two at this time, just stared at the dragon beard tiger with a little nervousness in her heart, just waiting for him to eat his own poison. This poison is refined by refining more than ten kinds of poisonous insects, as long as the other party eats it, he will definitely fall to the ground and die within three breaths.
The dragon bearded tiger took the osmanthus cake, habitually sniffed it under his nose, and his face suddenly changed greatly. The smell in the market was too mixed, so his keen sense of smell had lost some of its effect before, but at this time, the poisoned osmanthus cake was under his nose, and he naturally immediately sensed that something was wrong.
However, he was simple-minded, and he didn't know that it was poison, so he just frowned and took the osmanthus cake away and said, "Why did your cake smell good before, but if you smell it carefully, it stinks?"
Hu Ximei was suddenly shocked, and said with a forced smile: "Childe said that he was joking, the little girl's osmanthus cake is famous far and wide, how can it be stinky?"
The dragon beard tiger said: "It's stinky, don't believe it, you taste it yourself." ”
Hu Ximei was speechless for a moment, this poison was too toxic, and it was really difficult to rummage through the antidote, so she didn't dare to try it easily, so she had to say: "Since Gongzi said it stinks, it may be that this piece is a little broken, so I'll replace it with one for Gongzi." ”
As she spoke, she took a piece of osmanthus cake again and handed it to Long Xuhu.
Undoubtedly, it still stinks. Hu Ximei was suddenly shocked in her heart, wondering if the other party really had such a keen sense of smell that he could detect the faint fishy smell in the poison.
Long Xuhu walked to the stall by himself, took a piece of osmanthus cake, put it under his nose and smelled it, and said, "Look, this piece is good." As he spoke, he swallowed it in one gulp and praised: "It tastes really good, but it's too bad, so I won't buy it." ”
After speaking, he took two entourages and left, leaving only Hu Ximei glaring at his back with an angry face.
Hu Ximei naturally won't give up, her mind is in a hurry, and she has already come up with a way. Since Long Xuhu said that she wanted to eat meat, she rushed to the front again, disguised herself, and bought a stall selling braised meat.
This time, she had learned her lesson and poisoned an entire pot of braised pork and switched to a milder poison.
This poison, which is extracted from more than 20 kinds of poisonous weeds, does not kill the poisoner immediately, but will die after two hours. Of course, the smell of such a poison will naturally be much lighter, and ordinary people can't smell it even if they smell it carefully.
It's a pity that the person she met was the dragon beard tiger, and that pot of poisonous meat was simply a huge source of odor for the dragon beard tiger, and he would not come up at all, and walked to the stall, without even asking, and hurriedly covered his nose and left.
Hu Ximei was angry, of course she couldn't believe that Huang Xue's sense of smell would be so keen, in her mind, Huang Xue must have already recognized her, so she deliberately didn't eat her poison and played her around.
Thinking of this, she didn't plan to trick the other party into taking poison again, but secretly followed him, ready to find an opportunity to kill him directly with a poison needle.
Long Xuhu ate a lot of things along the way, and at this time he also digested a lot, so he felt a burst of stool in his stomach, and when he heard that there was a latrine in the back street, he staggered over. Hu Ximei suddenly felt that the opportunity had come, so she hurriedly followed.
Seeing that the two entourages were waiting at the entrance of the alley, and there were no pedestrians in the alley, Hu Ximei was overjoyed, so she chased after the dragon bearded tiger in front of her, preparing to assassinate the other party directly.
There were a lot of people in the market before, and there was a lot of food, and the dragon's sense of smell was a little out of order, but at this time, there was no one in the alley, and he immediately noticed Hu Ximei's arrival. With his sense of smell, he naturally also smelled that Hu Ximei was not a human being, but a demon body.
He was stunned for a moment, turned around, looked at Hu Ximei and said, "Where are you a monster, why are you following me?"
Hu Ximei stopped, looked at him and sneered: "I can't imagine that you will fall into my hands again today, and let you see who I am, and let you die clearly." As she spoke, she took off the silk scarf that covered her face and glared at the dragon beard tiger with hatred.
The dragon bearded tiger sniffed and said, "Who else can you be, aren't you just a bird demon! I didn't offend you, so why did you kill me?"
Hu Ximei became even more angry when she heard this, and said hatefully: "You have insulted me many times, and you dare to say that you have not offended me? As she spoke, she suddenly raised her hand, and three poisonous needles shot towards the dragon-bearded tiger.
Long Xuhu heard the other party say the three words Su Daji, and instantly understood that the other party was coming for Huang Xue. Huang Xue is the closest person to him, and if the other party wants to kill Huang Xue, it is actually no different from killing him.
In that case, there's no need to talk nonsense, let's fight.
