Chapter 214: Fighting Poison with the Jade Toad Scholar
Seeing this, Bai Youlan said, "Is the owner of the Chen Mansion too suspicious? β
Chen Minghui's gaze swept to Bai Youlan, and he turned around on Ning Lu's body again, and suddenly picked up the small vase and drank the decoction inside!
As soon as he drank the antidote, Chen Minghui felt a hot current rise in his body, and he couldn't help but sit on the chair and carry his internal force.
The Jade Toad scholar stared at Chen Minghui intently, as if he was afraid of missing a trace of his expression.
And Bai Youlan took this opportunity to pull Ning Lu aside and asked, "Mother, what does Chen Minghui want to do, why does he refuse to let us go, will we play a big role in his plan?" β
Ning Lu peeked at Chen Minghui, shook her head slightly, and replied in a low voice: "My mother doesn't know, no one can guess the landlord's thoughts, and no one can get the landlord's complete trust." Xiaolan, if you have the chance, you can escape, King Jing is still a good person, I believe he should be able to shelter you. β
Bai Youlan also turned her eyes to look at Chen Minghui, seeing that he was about to finish her luck, she quickly took out a few poisonous powders from her arms, stuffed them into Ning Lu and said urgently: "Mother, don't worry about me, take care of yourself, these things are all highly poisonous, they must be hidden, and they can save their lives in an emergency." β
When Ning Lu had just hidden a few packets of poison powder close to his body, Chen Minghui had already slowly gotten up.
"Hey, hey, hey......"
Chen Minghui laughed a few times, waved his hand, and immediately someone stepped up and forcibly took the condensation away.
"Little Orchid......"
Before Chen Minghui's words were finished, he was immediately interrupted by Bai Youlan, who said with a solemn expression: "Bai Youlan, my name is not Xiaolan, nor is it Xiaolan!" β
Chen Minghui smiled and said: "No matter if you are Xiaolan or what Lan, now the owner of this building has given you a task, if you complete it well, the condensation can leave the wind and rain building unscathed and return to you, otherwise it will ......"
"Otherwise?" Bai Youlan looked at Chen Minghui coldly and said, "Isn't it that the owner of the Chen Mansion has forgotten, I, Bai Youlan, am not your person from Fengyu Building, not your subordinate, I will be sent by you!" β
"Oh?"
Chen Minghui was not angry, but just looked straight at Bai Youlan with his gloomy gaze, and a cold momentum slowly pressed towards Bai Youlan.
That kind of momentum is the coercion issued by a martial arts master, and ordinary people can't fight it, but Bai Youlan's momentum in the face of Chen Minghui is not once or twice, at this time, he is standing firmly on the ground with a light car, looking at Chen Minghui with a cold gaze.
After the two of them were deadlocked for a while, Chen Minghui spoke: "Bai Youlan, if you are interested, you can go to the torture hall and ask, what is the fate of the people who betrayed and escaped from the Wind and Rain Building!" Even if you are not a person from the Wind and Rain Building, but the person from the Wind and Rain Building, if you are not afraid that she will die as well as life, you can refuse the order of the owner of the building! β
Hearing Chen Minghui threaten Condensation's life again, Bai Youlan pursed her lips, she knew what to do next.
At this time, Chen Minghui said again: "Do you think you can escape from here with your means? Don't expect Luo Mingxuan to save you, he has now led his troops back to the capital of the Northern Tang Kingdom, you think he will take you to heart, it's naΓ―ve! β
"Whether you are naΓ―ve or not, you don't need to worry about Lord Chen. If the owner of the Chen Mansion has anything to say, he will say it directly, and there is no need to beat around the bush. β
"Good! It's also a pleasure. Chen Minghui said, took out a rouge box, put it on the table and pushed it to Bai Youlan's side, and continued: "As long as you go back and give this to Luo Mingxuan, you can say anything." β
Looking at the rouge box that was very familiar and should have belonged to her, Bai Youlan frowned slightly, she didn't quite understand what Chen Minghui meant, wasn't he afraid that when she went back, she would get out of his control and poison Luo Mingxuan at all?
Gently picked up the rouge box and took a look, Bai Youlan immediately found that the poison powder in it had been replaced, and after thinking about it, Bai Youlan said that she needed to think about it.
Chen Minghui did not force Bai Youlan to agree immediately, nodded and asked Bai Youlan to be taken back to the original room.
Bai Youlan was lying on the bed, playing with the rouge box in her hand with her eyes closed, but she was thinking about it repeatedly in her heart.
Although Chen Minghui's words were not listened to, Bai Youlan also heard some useful news from them, that is, the Battle of the Border Pass had ended, and Luo Mingxuan had returned triumphantly.
It's just that at this point, Bai Youlan still has some doubts, she has already learned enough about Luo Mingxuan's personality during this period of time, and it is impossible for him to completely abandon her and lead the troops back to the capital when her whereabouts are unknown.
Maybe......
Bai Youlan's heart moved slightly, and she thought of a possibility, maybe it was Gu Xiaoran who was leading the troops back to the capital, after all, Gu Xiaoran had pretended to be Luo Mingxuan not once or twice.
She didn't know anything here, but she also thought that it was very likely that Xiangdie was pretending to be her at this time to fool around, which was the most beneficial thing for Luo Mingxuan.
I don't want to put these aside, I believe that Luo Mingxuan will handle it properly, even if Luo Mingxuan is not there, Gu Xiaoran is not a vegetarian.
Now, what makes Bai Youlan hesitate the most is Chen Minghui's attitude.
Before, Chen Minghui could be said to be threatened by the poison of the Nine Turns of Clear Wind Dispersion, so he would have been forbearing, but at this time, the poison of the Nine Turns of Clear Wind Dispersion had been resolved, why didn't he attack immediately?
Why is he so sure, even if Bai Youlan returns to Luo Mingxuan's side, he will still obey his orders, just because the condensation is still in his hands.
Bai Youlan was wondering if she should promise Chen Minghui first, and then find a way to rescue Ning Lu after meeting with Luo Mingxuan.
It's just that when she leaves here, can she find where Condensation is again, you must know that Luo Mingxuan has countless shadows, and she still can't find Condensation before.
Time gradually passed, Bai Youlan suddenly opened her eyes and walked out, only this time she saw not Chen Minghui, but the Jade Toad Scholar.
Seeing that it was the Jade Toad Scholar, Bai Youlan couldn't help frowning lightly, although the Jade Toad Scholar had the name of a scholar, but he decided not to have the style of a scholar.
Before, Bai Youlan poisoned him in front of him with a poison technique, and the vicious eyes when he woke up, Bai Youlan believed that he was not wrong.
The Jade Toad scholar had a grudge against Bai Youlan in his heart, and it was even more difficult to deal with him.
And the Jade Toad scholar, who was sitting there steadily, didn't say anything, just poured a cup of tea and pushed it to Bai Youlan.
Before taking the cup of tea, Bai Youlan had already sniffed out that the tea in the cup was poisonous, and it was obvious that the Jade Toad Scholar did not mean to hide it.
Bai Youlan didn't say or move, but just looked at the jade toad scholar coldly.
"As long as you're brave enough to drink this cup of tea, I can let you leave with the condensation!"
"Why don't you dare?"
Bai Youlan directly picked up the teacup, and in the smile of the Jade Toad Scholar's successful plan, when there were two figures in the dark who wanted to jump out to stop her, the cup of tea that was delivered to her lips stopped there.
Slowly bursting into a cold smile, Bai Youlan said, "But why should I believe you? Scholar Yuchan, you think you can call the shots, but you don't know that you are just a dog by Chen Minghui's side! A dog can call the shots, don't laugh here! β
Bai Youlan's words could not be described as poisonous, and the face of the Jade Toad scholar suddenly became extremely ugly, and he stood up suddenly, and his entire body trembled.
The jade toad scholar raised his hand, and Bai Youlan also raised his hand slightly, if it weren't for the sunlight, he could see two clouds of almost transparent powder from a distance, floating in the air one after another!
When the powder gradually dissipated, the Jade Toad Scholar and Bai Youlan took a few steps backwards almost at the same time, but Bai Youlan only took these few steps back, and the Jade Toad Scholar's figure couldn't stabilize at all, and kept falling backwards, falling directly to the ground.
With a "snap", Bai Youlan threw the cup of tea in her hand in front of the Jade Toad scholar, and said with a somewhat ugly face: "You should go and ask Chen Minghui first, if you solve me here, he will not agree." β
The jade toad scholar coughed twice, a trace of blood slowly overflowed from his lips, and he smiled with an ugly and abnormal smile: "Don't worry, you can't die." β
"You can't die either."
Turning around, Bai Youlan walked back and said, "However, if Chen Minghui will let you continue to live, I don't dare to guarantee it." β
In fact, Bai Youlan also supported herself to prevent herself from falling, and as soon as she returned to the room, her body collapsed on the ground, and it took a while to move.
Slowly took out a paper bag from his arms, Bai Youlan's fingers shook off some powder in his mouth, and after a while, the color finally returned to normal.
In the previous matter, Bai Youlan had already seen that the Jade Toad Scholar was not empty, but indeed he was also good at using poison, and she didn't want to fight with the Jade Toad Scholar, but the situation at that time made her unable to choose to retreat!
Although the Jade Toad scholar looks like a thin scholar, he has martial arts, and his shot is bound to be a few points faster than Bai Youlan.
It's just that he didn't expect Bai Youlan's shot to be slow, almost at the same time as him, and what was even more wrong was that he was poisoned once before but didn't let people find out the poison on Bai Youlan's body, so he was also poisoned by Bai Youlan.
Although Bai Youlan wanted to poison this guy directly, she knew that if she did this, she would definitely anger Chen Minghui completely, and she would definitely be retaliated by Chen Minghui's madness, and as far as the poison in her hand was concerned, it really couldn't poison him, so she gave up.
And the jade toad scholar over there looked at Bai Youlan's figure as if she was leaving leisurely in her own backyard, took out a few pills from her body and took them, and then slowly got up.
At this moment, a person stepped out of the shadow behind him and suddenly grabbed his life!
