The young man surnamed Zhao listened to his father's words, but he was still full of reluctance, lazily snuffed out the dry tobacco, got up and patted the dirt sticky on his buttocks, and then ran out of the tea shed.

Old man Zhao saw that his son had run down, but he was not idle, he counted the number of Qiu Yizhi's votes, lined up fifteen tea bowls on the table of the Eight Immortals, picked up a big spoon, stirred it in a pot full of tea, scooped a full spoonful, and poured it into a tea bowl. The capacity of this spoon is about the same as that of a tea bowl, and a single spoon fills a whole tea bowl.

Old man Zhao went to scoop another bowl and said to Qiu Yizhi, "Son, please use tea first." ”

Qiu Yizhi just said a lot of words to Old Man Zhao, he was already very thirsty, and when he saw the herbal tea in front of him, he seemed to have smelled the cool breath in his nostrils, and he didn't think much about it, so he picked up the tea bowl and poured it into his stomach.

The ten pro-soldiers who followed Qiu Yizhi actually wanted to drink water for a long time, but because Qiu Yizhi was still talking, they couldn't bear to do it. However, now that they saw that the capital of Qiuyi had drunk tea, they didn't talk about it anymore, and they scrambled to pick up the tea bowl one by one.

Seeing that the herbal tea on the table was almost snatched up by this group of rough people, Yu Chi Ji hurriedly used light skills, squeezed in front of everyone, picked up three tea bowls with two hands, and walked to the carriage where Wu Ruofei and Yang Ying'er were riding with extremely light and fast steps, gently opened the curtain, and said, "Sister Wu, Sister Yang, you all drink a bowl of tea to quench your thirst." There was not a drop of tea spilled in the three tea bowls in his hand.

Yang Ying'er moved her body to sit on the cross wheel in front of the carriage, took a sip of the tea bowl handed over by Yu Chi Jiming, and said to Wu Ruofei, who was still hiding in the car: "Miss Wu, this tea is very cool, you can also take a sip." With that, he took another tea bowl and handed it to the car.

But this Wu Ruofei has been pampered since childhood, and the utensils used for eating and wearing are the best of the best, she saw that this farmhouse tea set was very shabby, so she felt a little disgusted in her heart, and said softly: "I...... I'm not thirsty, drink it. ”

Yang Ying'er listened, so she had to withdraw her hand holding the tea bowl very embarrassed.

Seeing this, the old man who poured the tea smiled and said: "My tea is not ordinary, it doesn't matter if the young lady in the car doesn't drink it, it's the girl who worked hard to bring the water, so it's better to let this girl drink it." The "girl" he said was referring to Wei Chi Jiming.

Yu Chi Jiming is a practitioner, with abundant internal strength in his body, and he can't tolerate heat the most, so he reached out to take the tea bowl in Yang Ying'er's hand.

Unexpectedly, the "iron-headed Jiao" came out from the side, and the splitter snatched the tea bowl from Yang Yinger's hand.

Although Yu Chi Jiming's martial arts are strong, she is a fledgling donkey girl after all, and she is still inexperienced in facing the enemy, and she was caught off guard by the "Iron Head Jiao".

Seeing this, Yu Chi Jiming was very annoyed, and shouted: "Okay, you 'iron-headed Jiao', you dare to rob my things, see that I don't break your legs!" ”

Qiu Yizhi smiled: "Why does Ji Ming have to be like this? It's just a bowl of tea, why don't you scoop another bowl and get it? He turned his head to Zhao Laohan again and said, "Your tea does have some characteristics, and it tastes very refreshing, and it seems to be different from other houses." ”

The old man grinned at the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "That's not it, it is added with jujube flower skullcap, which is a secret recipe brought by my daughter-in-law from her mother's house, and even my son doesn't know how to boil it." Childe tastes it again, there is a different taste in it! ”

Qiu Yizhi nodded and took another deep sip.

But this mouthful, the whole body was filled with strange feelings, and all the refreshing energy when he first drank tea was lost, but he felt that his brain became groggy as if he was used to lead.

Qiu Yizhi hurriedly looked up and looked around, only to see that Lin Shuhan beside him was also sleepy-eyed, and heard a loud "boom" in his ears, but he followed the sound and saw the "Iron Head Jiao" fall on his back, lying on the ground on all fours.

Qiu Yi's heart said: "It's not good", and suddenly remembered the situation when he was poisoned by Miaozhen in the "Dust Palace", and hurriedly shouted: "Be careful, the tea is poisonous!" ”

This shout actually consumed all of Qiu Yizhi's strength, making his legs soften a little, and he quickly held on to the Eight Immortals table beside him, and slowly sat down on the muddy floor.

When he sat down, his mind seemed to be clearer, but he was still weak, and it was extremely difficult to even turn his neck, so he had to move his eyes up and down, left and right, and observe the situation left and right. I saw that Lin Shuhan had already collapsed on the ground unconscious; The rest of the soldiers also sat or lay down; Only Yu Chi Jiming's face was slightly better, but he also sat on the ground weakly, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was lucky.

In this way, among the group, only Wu Ruofei, who didn't drink the bowl of herbal tea, was safe, but she was a weak woman who was powerless, what could she expect in such a situation?

So Qiu Yizhi was already in despair, just hoping that this poisoned old man was just to rob some money and not hurt their lives.

But I saw that the old man who didn't know if he really had the surname "Zhao" smiled and walked around the poisoned person twice, and said to Wu Ruofei, who was the only sober: "This girl looks very standard, and the old man has never seen it in the rivers and lakes for so many years." ”

Wu Ruofei was taken aback when he heard this, and said, "You...... You...... What do you want to do......" She was so frightened that her tongue seemed to be knotted.

The old man smiled proudly and said, "Don't worry, girl, I am also a little famous in the rivers and lakes, and I never rob sex." I just hope this girl doesn't move, otherwise I'll have to be polite! ”

Wu Ruofei hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, the old man was relieved to make a table of eight immortals, lit a dry cigarette and smoked it "purring", but his eyes were still observing the situation of everyone.

After a short time, the young man who had just walked away had returned.

Qiu Yizhi couldn't raise his head, and he couldn't see the man's expression clearly, but he saw that the young man really brought a woman over, only to hear the woman shouting: "Haha! So many people poured out of the medicine at once! It is also thanks to the old lady's great ability, otherwise in this poor and remote country, where would she find a drug with such a fast drug? ”

Qiu Yizhi was very familiar with the woman's voice, and quickly used her strength to breastfeed, raised her head vigorously, and looked at the woman who spoke. It doesn't matter if you look at this, it turns out that this woman is Qiu Yizhi's acquaintance - it is the old bustard in the "Warm Fragrance Pavilion" in the capital - Gu Erniang.

So Qiu Yizhi was overjoyed, and shouted loudly: "Mother Gu, it's me!" Don't you recognize me? ”

Gu Erniang was stunned for a moment, hurriedly leaned down to look, and suddenly laughed: "Yo, who should I be!" It turned out to be Qiu Gongzi! This is really a big flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple. With that, he helped Qiu Yizhi up with his own hands and sat on a chair at the table.

Qiu Yizhi calmed down a little at this time, and said slowly: "Mother Gu is really a good means, and I am also a little guarded, but I didn't expect that in the end, I still caught the way, which made Gu's mother smile." ”

Gu Erniang was also very polite, and said: "The slave family's medicine is colorless and smellless, no wonder the son took the bait." It's all because the slave family has something to do and walked out for a while, otherwise it's who is the medicine, and the medicine boy can't be the medicine boy! ”

Qiu Yizhi was dizzy and dizzy, and was even more dizzy by Gu Erniang's few rhetorical words, and finally settled down and said: "Since it was a misunderstanding, then please ask Gu's mother to give us the antidote, and we will talk about it in detail." ”

Gu Erniang had a smile on her face, but she said, "I'm not busy." The slave family asked a lot: The son is a nobleman, and he helped the emperor ascend the throne, it is a time when the future is bright, how can he return to this ravine? ”

Qiu Yizhi knew that this Gu Erniang had a complicated background, she was not only a person from the evil sect in the rivers and lakes, but also had an inextricable connection with the Tianzun Sect, and after thinking about it, she almost wanted to explode her brain, so she said: "In this way, the emperor thinks that I am too young to be in a high position, and wants to let me start from the county order and experience step by step." No, I'm just going to take someone with me, and that's why I'm passing through here. ”

Gu Erniang's eyes flashed fiercely, and she said, "So, Gongzi is the new county commander in Shanyin County?" ”

Qiu Yizhi had a splitting headache, and he didn't think about it, so he replied: "That's right, it's down." I also asked Gu's mother to give the antidote now, I really can't stand it. ”

Gu Erniang sneered and said, "This is the slave family who is going to be sorry for the son." Childe offended people and hired a slave to take Childe's life. Childe also knows that we people in the rivers and lakes pay the most attention to integrity, and since we have promised others, it is naturally difficult to break our promises. ”

Qiu Yizhi was shocked when she heard this-although Gu Erniang's kung fu is not as good as that of captain Chi Lianghong, she is also a first-class master in the martial arts, especially the ability to poison herself is unparalleled in the world - if she intends to embarrass herself, it will be difficult for her to get out.

So Qiu Yizhi tried her best to stay calm, pondered for a while, and said: "Gu's mother has an appointment with that employer, and some friendship is also true, so the two can be offset. In that case, we might as well talk about the word 'profit'. First of all, I asked my mother, how much money did the enemy give out to take my life? ”

Gu Erniang didn't expect Qiu Yizhi to encounter such a catastrophe, but she was still so calm, but she also had the heart to talk to him in detail, so she said bluntly: "The head of the son is very valuable, and the enemy is willing to pay 400,000 silver to take the son's life." The slave family has also seen the world in the capital's 'Warm Fragrance Pavilion', when has they seen so much silver, and whether they are court officials or not, they agreed to come down without thinking about it at that time. ”

Qiu Yizhi was shocked when he heard this, thinking about the gold and silver on his body, Wu Ruofei's jewelry, and Lin Shuhan's calligraphy and painting manuscripts, no matter how much he put it together, he couldn't put together more than 150,000 taels of silver. However, now it is a matter of life, so I have to lie first: "It's okay, in the next appointment, I brought the emperor to reward me with gold and silver, which is nearly 500,000 taels, and it is reluctant to buy my team of people and horses for one life." I don't know what Gu's mother thinks? ”

Speaking of this, Qiu Yizhi suddenly remembered that he still had several important items such as Emperor Zheng Rong's name card and gold medal arrows that could mobilize the world's soldiers and horses.

But she heard Gu Erniang laugh a few times and said, "How can a smart person like Gongzi not be able to calculate this account?" If the slave family releases the son, he can get the son's 500,000 silver; If it turns out to you, your 500,000 yuan can't help but be at your fingertips, and the 400,000 yuan on the employer's side is also indispensable to the slave family. One out and one in is 400,000 taels of snowflake silver, which is not a small amount! ”

Qiu Yizhi is used to sharp teeth, and he has never hated his mouth so much - why did he strengthen Gu Erniang's determination to kill him as soon as he opened his mouth today?

He looked at Gu Erniang's rouge-covered lian, and suddenly had an idea, thinking of a joint, if he found it clear, he might be able to save his life today.
