Chapter 313: Sneak Attack

"Master Taifu, Brother Fengying, are you going back?"

"Well, there are still things to deal with in Kyoto, so I asked him to go back first, I see that the current rain is beyond my expectations, last night I thought it would be a sunny day."

Cao Li said with a smile: "Lord Taifu is modest, if this celestial phenomenon is not a reincarnated immortal, otherwise who can accurately predict it?" ”

Xie Chengli smiled and didn't speak again.

In the afternoon, the rain gradually decreased, and under this circumstance, the rain should stop in the evening, but if you want to enter the mountain, I am afraid you will have to wait until tomorrow.

Xie Chengli sat on the chair, took out the jade pendant from last night, put it in the palm of his hand and rubbed it, and suddenly felt that a certain detail carved on the jade pendant was a little abrupt, so he turned out a set of tools for carving the jade pendant from the luggage, chose a smaller one, and polished it carefully.

This jade pendant turned out to be carved by Xie Chengli himself.

I don't know how long it took, Xie Chengli was polishing the jade pendant in the candlelight, his eyes were a little sour, so he couldn't help but stop, closed his eyes, and rested for a while.

However, he suddenly heard a sound outside the tent, which was strange.

Xie Chengli suddenly became vigilant, walked to the edge of the tent, listened attentively, and found that there was no footsteps of the soldiers patrolling outside the tent.

Cao Li's men are all well-trained soldiers in Kyoto, and they will never be lazy, and the outside of the tent is surprisingly quiet.

Xie Chengli didn't know what the situation was outside, and he didn't dare to go out easily, for fear of causing unnecessary trouble.

Just then, he heard the sound of approaching footsteps, which were chaotic and not as well-trained as zombies, and it seemed that something was indeed going on outside.

Fortunately, when he was setting up the tent, Xie Chengli kept an eye on it and secretly opened a small door on the other side of the tent.

Xie Chengli walked out through the small door, but he didn't leave immediately, but squatted in place, secretly lifted a small crack, and observed carefully.

It didn't take long for a man's voice to come over, "You go in first and see what's going on inside." ”

"Why don't you go in? I heard that there are people living here, but it is the Taifu of the dynasty. ”

"What are you afraid of? What if it's Master Taifu? It's just a little white face, besides, the medicine we put in the teapot, even the strong soldiers outside can't stand it, he is a weak scholar, I'm afraid he has long been stunned now, if you are timid, just say it directly, you don't have to make these excuses. ”

The man was also a man who could not stand the agitation, and when he heard this man say this, he immediately said, "Who said I was cowardly? Isn't it just to go in and check the situation, you guys are waiting for me here, I'll go in first, I want to see what this Taifu can do to me? ”

After Xie Chengli listened to their words, he noticed the pot of tea on the table.

Xie Chengli remembered that he had just been out of his mind because of the carving of the jade pendant, and he didn't touch the pot of tea, but now that he thinks about it, he is a little happy, but he is a little worried about Cao Li's current situation.

Soon the man cautiously walked in.

But as soon as he lifted the tent, and the scene inside the tent was unobstructed, he cried out in surprise.

The companion outside the tent asked anxiously, "What is your situation?" ”

"Why don't you come in and see for yourself?"

When his companions saw that he was not nervous when he spoke, they knew that there was no danger inside, so they rushed in together.

"What about people? Why isn't Xie Chengli here? ”

"You ask me, who do I ask? That's it as soon as I come in, I'm afraid Xie Chengli won't be here. ”

The companion was also a little puzzled, "Is this impossible?" The secret report from the adults to us, Xie Chengli lives in this tent, how could the person disappear? Look for it again. ”

"What are you looking for, this tent is so big, can he still fly away? I think, eighty percent is that this Xie Chengli is lucky, something happened to go out, don't panic too much, our operation this time is quite smooth, we captured a Cao Li, I believe that adults will not blame us, okay, let's go, those drugs can't fool those soldiers for long. ”

"Okay, let's let go of that Xie Chengli this time."

Then the group left.

After Xie Chengli confirmed that they were really gone, he returned to the tent, opened the teapot and put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, there were indeed drugs in it, but these drugs were not lethal, they would just make people fall asleep for a while.

And the group of people who just came in, judging by their words and deeds, were not well-trained killers, but rather like farmers and hunters who often did farm work.

Xie Chengli ran outside to check the situation in the camp, and sure enough, as they said, all the soldiers fell asleep on the ground.

Xie Chengli carried the antidote given by Meng Hanyuan with him, and he should be able to solve these elixirs, but the amount of medicine was very small after all, so he could only find Cao Li's deputy first and give him the antidote.

It didn't take long for the deputy to wake up.

When he saw Xie Chengli in front of him, he asked with some confusion: "Master Taifu?" Why are you here? What's wrong with me? ”

"Someone just attacked the camp, they drugged the water you drank, and now Lord Cao has been taken captive by them, I will go to save Lord Cao."

"What! Master Cao has been taken captive! What can I do? As soon as the deputy heard the news, he instantly became anxious, and when he saw his brothers lying beside him, he didn't know what to do.

Xie Chengli sighed slightly, if the Wind Shadow was here now, he would not be so at a loss.

He patted the shoulder of the armrest and said: "You calm down first, I don't have enough antidote, I can only let you recover first for the time being, but these drugs will not kill people, they will wake up later, you watch here, and when they wake up, they will bring someone to look for me, and I will leave a mark along the way." ”

"Master Taifu, wouldn't it be too dangerous for you to go alone? The other party actually made such a big battle and kidnapped Master Cao, it must be menacing, you ......"

Actually, the deputy wanted to say that Xie Chengli was a weak scholar and didn't know martial arts, so it was better to let him chase Cao Li, but he didn't dare to say it.

Xie Chengli didn't want to explain to him more, only said: "Although I don't know martial arts, but I still have foot strength, they have a person, and now the mountain road outside is relatively slippery, and it will definitely not be fast, I keep you for a reason, after all, the soldiers here are all Lord Cao's personal guards, if I stay here, I'm afraid I can't explain to them why Lord Cao was taken away, they only listen to you now, and you can only stay." ”
