56. Wait for the rabbit
Even if he was squeezed by his sister like this, Tong Shi was not too angry.
He knew that he was really unreliable before, and it was still difficult to change his sister's concept of himself in a short time.
"Sister, let me tell you, I used to be very ignorant, but now that I have grown up, during this time, I have followed Brother Jiang to walk the rivers and lakes, and I have experienced a lot of things. I know I still have a lot of shortcomings, but I will gradually get better and become a real man. ”
Tong Shishi said and took out the jewelry, silver taels, and silver tickets on his body, and handed them to Tong Xiangyu: "All this money is put here for you." I'm going to go out and look for a job from tomorrow onwards and learn to support myself. ”
"Wushuang, you wait, I will definitely be able to become a man who stands up to the sky and the earth, and I can take good care of you."
Tong Shishi turned his head to look at Zhu Wushuang again, and said in an extremely firm tone.
"I'm sure you can do it."
Wushuang listened to his words, and couldn't help but be moved, and nodded heavily.
After getting along with each other during this time on the road, she also saw that Tong Shishi was born rich and noble, and he had never suffered anything since he was a child.
Now it is indeed not easy to be self-reliant for yourself.
Tong Xiangyu didn't expect his younger brother to be able to say such a backbone word, so he was impressed with him for a while, and said with emotion: "It seems that you are indeed a lot more mature than before, but I underestimate you." ”
While a few people were talking, Xing Zhutou walked in with Yan Xiaoliu.
Seeing Jiang Yi, both of them said hello: "Little Jiang, you're back." ”
"Long time no see." Jiang Yi nodded.
After Xing Zhutou briefly talked about the old days, he came to the seat and sat down to look at everyone, and said with a solemn expression: "Something is wrong." ”
"What's going on again?"
Looking at his expression, everyone also guessed that things might not be simple, and hurriedly asked.
Xing Zhutou beckoned everyone to gather over, and then said in a low voice: "According to reliable sources, Ji Wusheng's younger brother Ji Wuzhi is coming to Guanzhong from the Western Regions to avenge his brother. ”
"Didn't his brother kill himself, what are you looking for us for?" Tong Xiangyu was puzzled.
Xing Zhutou was a little embarrassed: "After Ji Wusheng died, we publicized that Xiucai used his great mercy and compassion to beat him to death. In this way, Xiucai can become a hero in Guanzhong. Therefore, Ji Wuxian must have come to seek revenge from Xiucai this time. ”
Yan Xiaoliu continued: "We plan to use Xiucai as bait to lure Ji Wuxian out and then capture it." ”
As he spoke, Xing Zhutou raised his eyes and looked around, frowned and asked, "By the way, what about Xiucai?" ”
Guo Furong sighed in her heart, had an ominous premonition, and said worriedly: "I asked him to buy some rouge for me in the morning, he hasn't come back since he went out, could it be ......?"
Bai Zhantang was also anxious: "That Ji Wuxian won't come so quickly." ”
As he spoke, there was a scream, and a short arrow burst out, and with a thud, it nailed to the doorframe of the inn.
Bai Zhantang hurriedly ran to the door, condensed his eyes and looked around, but he didn't find the person who secretly fired short arrows.
Then he turned his gaze to the short arrow, and saw that there was still a note on it.
He pulled the arrow off the doorframe, took out the paper, looked at it carefully, and returned to the inn in silence.
Everyone gathered around and looked at the words on the note, and their faces sank.
Yan Xiaoliu was illiterate, pretending to look at it for a long time and couldn't understand, so he couldn't help but ask eagerly: "What is written in the letter?" ”
Bai Zhantang's tone was heavy: "Ji Wuxian is here, and he has arrested Xiucai." He wants us to exchange the Iron Thief with him as a hostage. ”
"What is the Iron Medal of the God of Thieves?" Wushuang asked curiously.
"It's a token of Ji Wu's life." Xing Zhutou replied.
Guo Furong was puzzled: "But doesn't he want to avenge his brother, why do you want this thing?" ”
"If he has this brand, he will be able to unify the underworld and command the heroes. Maybe this is the real purpose of Ji Wu's illness in Guanzhong. Old Xing Mo rubbed his chin and groaned.
"Then let's give the sign to others, and save Xiucai first."
Guo Furong didn't care about any iron cards, and just wanted to save Xiucai first.
Tong Xiangyu also nodded again and again: "Yes, we'll just give him this broken brand." ”
Xing Zhutou's expression was distressed: "That brand is no longer in our hands, what about the exhibition in Six Doors?" ”
"Then we'll forge one?"
Tong Xiangyu paid attention.
"No, that brand is made of strange materials, and the knife and axe don't leave a trace."
Xing Zhutou shook his head and rejected his proposal.
"Then what should I do, if I don't have the God Thief Iron Card, will that Ji Wuzhi tear up the ticket?"
Guo Furong was extremely worried.
Tong Xiangyu could only hug her and comforted: "Don't worry, we will definitely be able to save Xiucai." ”
Bai Zhantang, Xing Zhutou, and Yan Xiaoliu thought hard about countermeasures.
Jiang Yi didn't stay at the inn for long, and said to everyone that he wanted to go home first, and left the inn.
Naturally, he didn't go home, but took some dry food and hid on a roof not far from the inn.
After reading the original book, he naturally knew that Na Ji Wuxian would not wait for them to take the God Thief Iron Card and then exchange it with them. Instead, he will wait for the time to be almost there, and he will go to the door to scatter everyone with a hundred flowers and soft tendons, and then start to steal the god iron card (if the head catcher has already obtained the iron card).
Although Jiang Yi has various detoxification pills from the Five Poisons Sect on his body, there is no antidote to the strange poison of Baihua Soft Tendon San. So he also had no way to take that Ji without illness.
If he stays in the inn with everyone, I'm afraid he will be served by Ji Wuxi.
Helpless, he could only wait in the dark and wait for Ji Wu's illness.
In the blink of an eye, it was night.
Everyone in the inn was still discussing countermeasures, and Yan Xiaoliu proposed: "It's better to let Lao Bai pretend to be a thief, have a relationship with Na Ji Wu's disease, find out Xiucai's whereabouts, and then take the opportunity to take him down, what do you think?" ”
Bai Zhantang's feet softened, and he shook his head unswervingly and refused: "No, I have clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and I don't look like a thief." ”
Guo Furong's eyes lit up, and she said supportively: "This method is good, Lao Bai, if you come to pretend to be a saint, there will be no flaws." ”
Tong Xiangyu also persuaded: "Yes, Zhantang, it is most appropriate for you to pretend to be a thief." ”
Bai Zhantang didn't want to take on this kind of errand, if his identity was revealed, Xing Zhutou and Yan Xiaoliu would never let him go, but he was worried about Xiucai's safety, and it was extremely difficult for a while.
Just when Bai Zhantang was entangled, he suddenly smelled a faint fragrance of flowers, like an orchid and musk, refreshing.
He couldn't help twitching his nose, sniffed, and said strangely, "What does this smell like?" ”
As he spoke, plopping and plopping a few times, everyone in the inn collapsed to the ground one after another, as if their bones had been pulled out.
A vigorous figure appeared at the entrance of the inn and said proudly: "This is a hundred flowers and soft muscles." ”
Bai Zhantang only felt that the internal force in his body was disordered, and he couldn't mobilize it at all, his whole body was soft and sore, and he couldn't exert any strength, so he could only slump softly on the chair, and he relied on his two hands on the table to support his body, so as not to let himself slide to the ground.
He looked at the person who came and asked in disbelief: "You, is Ji Wusick?" ”
"Haha, that's right."
Seeing that everyone had been tricked, Ji Wuxian laughed proudly:
"Next, I'll send you on your way."
As he spoke, he pulled out the long knife at his waist and was about to kill the two officials, Xing Zhutou and Yan Xiaoliu.
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out.
Boom!
A bullet tore through the sky and shot at an unparalleled speed.
Before Ji Wuxian could react, the bullet popped and burrowed into his calf, bringing up a small puddle of blood.
"Ahh
Ji Wuxi was suddenly attacked by this kind of attack, and couldn't help screaming, staggering and falling to the ground.
Woohoo.
Two small black lights flashed again, and the next moment, two hidden arrows had already been hit on his right hand.
Two rounds of hidden weapon sneak attacks in succession abolished Ji Wuxi's hands and feet, making him completely lose his combat power, and he could only lie on the ground and cover his wounds and wail.
At this time, a figure jumped down from the roof diagonally opposite, and then slowly walked over, it was Jiang Yi who had been hiding.
He held his breath and came to Ji Wuxi's side, first kicked the knife beside him away, completely cutting off the possibility of a counterattack, and then cast the sunflower point acupoint, which pointed at the acupuncture points on his body and sealed his action.
Then, Jiang Yi rummaged on him.
After taking out a few bottles and jars, Jiang Yi asked, "Which is the antidote to the flowers and soft tendons?" If you don't want to taste all the tortures, you'd better be honest. ”
Ji Wuxian was interesting, and honestly ordered one of the bottles of antidote.
Jiang Yi took the antidote and let everyone sniff it, and everyone recovered from the soft state of muscles and bones.
As soon as Guo Furong regained her mobility, she ran to Ji Wuxi's side and asked:
"Come on, where did you lock Xiucai?"
Ji Wuxian had no intention of resisting, and directly told the place of detention.
When everyone went to rescue Xiucai, Jiang Yi asked Ji Wuxian about the formula for the soft tendons of Baihua.
