Chapter 268: The Tiger's Den is not easy to escape

On the outskirts of the capital

The sudden voice frightened Pei Xiuxiu into a cold sweat, Pei Xiuxiu raised her eyes and looked, who could the person who spoke not be that Wu Yafu?

He was dressed in a lavish lilac robe, with a pair of jade-encrusted boots at his feet, and his eyes scanned her back and forth with great sharpness.

Pei Xiuxiu pretended to be calm and stood up, and replied briefly: "I haven't seen it!"

Wu Yafu carefully observed the little Taoist priest in front of him, his skin was white and pure like a female baby, his height was about six feet high, and his black eyes were clear and bright, which made people wonder if the little Taoist priest in front of him was a man or a woman.

The water by the stream is tinkling, the smoke curls from the smooth rocks, and the grilled fish on the shelves exudes an enticing aroma.

The two of them looked at each other quietly like this, and Pei Xiuxiu couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.

Pei Xiuxiu asked in a panic, "Is there anything else this layman has to ask?"

In order to dispel the doubts in his heart, Wu Yafu asked directly in the next second: "Are you a woman?" Why do you want to pretend to be a Taoist priest? ”

It's really amazing!

Pei Xiuxiu was stunned by his question, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

Here's the thing, Pei Xiuxiu, who thought she was safe, changed into a human pi mask after changing into a Taoist uniform.

Because the weather was hot and there was no one around, she took off her mask and washed her face by the stream.

After washing her face, Xiuxiu, who was busy filling her stomach, carelessly forgot to put on her mask, so she was suddenly seen by Wu Yafu that she was a woman dressed as a man.

Pei Xiuxiu blushed and squeezed out a very ugly smile and said: "Here's the thing, the little girl is afraid that it will not be safe on the road when she goes out alone, so she has to make this decision, and it is really helpless to pretend to be a man."

"Hahaha......" The gloomy man in front of him suddenly burst out laughing, and this laugh frightened Pei Xiuxiu's pores to stand upright.

"You...... You...... Why do you laugh all of a sudden? Pei Xiuxiu asked nervously.

Wu Yafu looked at her coldly, and said with a twitch of the corners of his mouth: "I didn't expect the pockmarked face to be pretended by you?" Am I laughing at myself for being so stupid? There was a yellow-haired girl at the meeting. ”

Pei Xiuxiu was so shocked that her mouth opened into a capital O-shape, pointed at him and asked, "Won't it?" You...... What the hell are you talking about? Why can't I understand? ”

Wu Yafu pointed to the boots that were placed on the stones and said, "Do you think I won't recognize you when I change my outfit?" Let me ask you, why don't you replace those hibiscus boots with you? ”

Pei Xiuxiu was speechless and thinking about how to get out now.

Wu Yafu picked up his boots with his sword and looked at them, and said with a smile while watching: "Your boots are even taller enough, I guess you deliberately wore such heightened boots in order to hide people's eyes, right?" In order to follow us into the city, you are indeed the target of the officers and soldiers of the capital who do everything possible to arrest them. ”

Pei Xiuxiu explained: "Childe, please listen to me, I'm really not a bad person......"

"Not a bad guy?" Wuya

The husband raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Let me ask if a good person will deliberately poison people in order to go out of the city for himself?" You dare to say that the pollen poison on my body was not caused by you? ”

Pei Xiuxiu wanted to cry without tears and explained: "That being said, it is true, but the pollen poison is actually not very toxic, even if you don't take the antidote for two or three days, it will completely heal on its own." Childe, I just want to get out of the city, and I don't have any ill intentions. ”

Wu Yafu asked angrily, "Who told me that I had to take an antidote every four hours or I would die of poison?" Dare you lie to me? ”

"That...... Pei Xiuxiu knelt down in a panic and begged for mercy: "The hero spares his life, the hero spares his life, I will never dare to do it again in the future, please don't kill me!"

Wu Yafu sarcastically said with contempt: "Not only poisoning people, but also defrauding people of money, your women in the Central Plains are really vicious, impressive!"

Pei Xiuxiu immediately said: "I can pay you back that piece of jade and gold immediately, I just ask the hero to surround my life!"

After speaking, Pei Xiuxiu hurriedly took out the jade and gold from the baggage and presented them in full.

"I'm not going to kill a woman, it's just that you're so hateful, I can't stand it anymore to expose you!" Wu Yafu spoke.

"Thank you for not killing! If it's okay, I'll quit! Pei Xiuxiu was anxious to turn around and run away, but she fell straight into the waterhole with her bare feet and was covered with embarrassment.

The soaked clothes clung to her petite and graceful body, and Wu Yafu's pupils closed and stared with interest at the hateful and interesting fake Taoist priest underwater.

Pei Xiuxiu took a lot of effort, swimming and climbing, and it was not easy to climb up from the water.

Pei Xiuxiu gasped and said, "Thank you for not killing, thank you!"

Wu Yafu wanted to say something more, but the woman who was still alive just now seemed to be a different person in an instant.

Pei Xiuxiu couldn't help but tremble all over her body, her lips were purple, and her face was pale, as if she was sick.

Xu is struggle under the water just now caused Pei Xiuxiu's cold poison to attack, although it was hot at noon, she was so cold that she couldn't do it.

Wu Yafu asked coldly, "What's wrong with you?"

Pei Xiuxiu trembled and said, "It's okay, it's an old problem, son, please turn around, I'm going to change my clothes."

Wu Yafu stepped back a few meters, and his eyes obediently turned away.

Pei Xiuxiu took out a set of silver needles from her bag and skillfully pierced the silver needles into various acupuncture points.

A quarter of an hour later, Pei Xiuxiu broke out in a cold sweat all over her body, and the silver needles slowly changed color.

By the time Wu Yafu turned back again, the woman had fainted weakly.

Wu Yafu picked up Pei Xiuxiu and rushed to the carriage.

The unconscious woman in the carriage was in a coma, and kept muttering: "Xianggong...... Xianggong ......"

After a long time, Pei Xiuxiu, who was in a coma, slowly opened her eyes.

"Are you awake?" A man's voice came from the air.

Pei Xiuxiu turned her face to look at Wu Yafu, sat up and asked, "Where is this?" How did I end up here? Did you save me just now? ”

Wu Yafu sneered: "Who is Xianggong?

You called me all the way, I don't know if you are calling me? ”

Pei Xiuxiu looked at the ice cube face in amazement, and pondered in disbelief: This man is still joking? The sun really came out in the west.

Immediately, Pei Xiuxiu touched the clothes on her body and exclaimed, "Why are all the clothes on my body dry?" You ......"

"On such a hot day, your clothes have long since dried automatically, what are you suspicious?" Wu Yafu glanced at her unhappily and said, "With your appearance, it's really a little short to attract my attention."

After listening to his words, Pei Xiuxiu relieved herself and explained: "Son, please don't misunderstand, there is a difference between men and women, and the little girl already has a husband, so she is naturally more suspicious, and I hope to forgive my sins!"

Wu Yafu once again gave her a large number of words and said: "Seeing that you should be less than twenty years old, you are a woman who is not at home and serves her husband well, what are you doing when you come out alone?"

Pei Xiuxiu opened her mouth to explain: "I can't hide it, because I am deeply affected by cold poison, the reason why I came out without hiding it is to seek medical treatment."

"Where to go? Are you also going to find the divine doctor Long Daozi near the Shaolin Temple in Henan? Wu Yafu asked.

Pei Xiuxiu nodded and said, "Yes, if I hadn't overheard your people in the hotel mentioning that you were going to Shaolin Temple, I wouldn't have paid attention to you, because I ...... by the way."

Wu Yafu said coldly: "You are quite clever, who are you?" Why did so many officers and soldiers go after you? ”

"Huh...... Hehe...... It's nothing! Pei Xiuxiu smiled and covered up: "The son misunderstood, my father-in-law is an ordinary Li people, and the people don't know the people who are officials, so it must be that the court is arresting important criminals and has nothing to do with me!"

Wu Yafu's cold light flashed, and he decided to secretly observe her for a while, if the pink pimples on his body really disappeared, he would let go of the troublesome essence in the car.

"Phew!" The carriage stopped, and several of his subordinates lifted the curtain and said, "Childe, it's not early, and my subordinates have found a house in front of me, do you want to rest here for the night tonight, and then set off tomorrow morning when it is dawn?"

"Well, I'll listen to you!"

The group went into the empty house together, some made a fire to cook, some went out hunting, and a few made up a simple sleeping bunk and asked Wu Yafu to lie down and rest.

Pei Xiuxiu found a remote corner and sat down, carefully observing the movements of this group of people.

After a while, the two hunters came back with a few roast chickens.

After a simple treatment, the fragrant roast chicken is grilled on the fire, and the golden skin overflows with oily fat, which makes people swallow their saliva.

After the roast chicken was roasted, the best part was naturally reserved for Wu Yafu, and after everyone divided it, one hand threw the remaining half of the roast chicken to Pei Xiuxiu and said, "Little brother, take it and eat it!"

Pei Xiuxiu picked up the roast chicken and gnawed on it, and sure enough, the roast chicken lacking condiments tasted tasteless.

Pei Xiuxiu, who was a picky eater, took out a bunch of spices in the baggage, sprinkled them full, and then skewered them again in the wooden gang and roasted them on the fire.

After a few minutes, the aroma of cumin and chili peppers on the roast chicken makes the roast chicken even more fragrant.

One of his subordinates came over curiously and said, "Your roast chicken seems to be more fragrant, tear a little and I'll taste it!"

Pei Xiuxiu reluctantly tore him a little, but after he ate a bite, he snatched Xiuxiu's roast chicken away without hesitation.

"Childe, this roast chicken is more fragrant, please taste it!" His subordinates offered the stolen roast chicken to Wu Yafu.

Wu Yafu enjoyed it unceremoniously, the girl seemed to know a lot about cooking, and it seemed that she was not useless.

Others also handed over the roast chicken in their hands to Pei Xiuxiu and asked her to help process and season.

A simple dinner ended with everyone's satisfied expressions, only Xiuxiu, who was still hungry, looked aggrieved: God, I'm still hungry, who can tell me why the meat that came to my mouth was snatched away again?

Pei Xiuxiu secretly made up her mind to find the right opportunity to escape again, lest she wouldn't even have enough to eat when she got it, everything was small, and starvation was big.
