Chapter 244: Bait
When the dagger in Honggu's hand was only an inch away from her grandmother's throat, a dart rushed sideways and struck the dagger, although the tip of the dagger flew out of the skin on her grandmother's neck, bringing her blood, but in the end it would not lose her life.
The sudden rescue made Honggu and Grandma tilt their heads in surprise, and at this time, Tang Jiu'er had already rushed in, and he raised his palm and slapped it on Honggu.
Honggu knew how powerful Tang Jiu'er was, so she retreated in horror, dodged without saying anything, and hurriedly took out a flying needle and threw it at Tang Jiu'er.
Tang Jiu'er immediately dodged two backflips in a row - at this time, Honggu took advantage of Tang Jiu'er's dodge, took out two darts, and flew up to shoot at her grandmother.
However, as soon as she jumped up, her eyes were already black, and she could not aim at all, so she could only barely throw out in the general direction.
Honggu fell to the ground, convulsive, and the dart was just grazing her grandmother's arm because she lost her head.
Tang Jiu'er had also rushed to Honggu's side at this time.
"Spare her life, I'm going to ask." As soon as Grandma's voice floated over, Honggu was already unconscious.
……
In the secret room of the ancestral hall, Honggu's hands and feet were tied to a wooden frame, and her head was drooping.
Not far from the wooden frame, Tang Jiu'er carefully bandaged the wounds on her grandmother's hands.
At this moment, Grandma's face was very gloomy, and she kept staring at Honggu.
And on the square table in front of her, there was the strip of silk cloth that Tang Jiu'er had intercepted.
After Tang Jiu'er bandaged her grandmother's hand, she was about to apply gold sore medicine on her grandmother's neck, but her grandmother raised her hand to block it: "No need, wake her up." ”
"It's better to be careful with some medicine......"
"I told you to wake her up!" Grandma almost roared, Tang Jiu'er glanced at her expression that she couldn't bear it any longer, and had to put down the gold sore medicine, walked to Honggu's side, and took out two silver needles and pierced Honggu's neck.
After a few breaths, Honggu woke up.
Grandma got up and walked to Aunt Hong, and Tang Jiu'er retreated a little in interest.
Looking at each other, grandma's eyes were sharp in anger, but Honggu was self-deprecating and calm, yes, calm, there was no fear and fear, not even a trace of dodging.
"You know I won't say it, so why waste my life and time." The first to speak was Honggu, her tone was bland.
Grandma raised the finger with the missing knuckle in front of Honggu's eyes: "Don't ask clearly, how can I be worthy of my lost finger?" ”
Honggu laughed: "It's just a finger, and you won't suffer if I'm going to die soon." ”
Grandma stared at her and gritted her teeth: "When did you betray me?" ”
Honggu stared at her grandmother unceremoniously for a moment before saying, "I didn't betray you, from the beginning...... I'm someone else's pawn. ”
Grandma took a step back when she heard this, and then nodded vigorously: "Okay, very good!" ”
Honggu closed her eyes: "Kill me!" ”
"Hahaha......" Grandma laughed gloomily: "Kill you? Isn't it too cheap for you! ”
Honggu suddenly opened her eyes: "You want to use me as bait?" ”
"Of course, even you are Meng Zhi's spy, I want to see how many dogs that surnamed Meng still has with me!"
Honggu nodded and said dejectedly: "Sure enough, it's your usual style, but it's a pity...... You won't be able to. After Honggu finished speaking, she turned her head and bit her collar, but then froze.
"Don't bite." Tang Jiu'er said softly beside him, "I took out the poison in your collar." ”
Honggu let go of her collar and smiled sadly: "It's really difficult to hide poison in front of you." ”
Grandma gritted her teeth at this time and stepped forward again: "What did the dog thief surnamed Meng give you to make you so desperate?" ”
Honggu blinked: "A bite of rice." ”
Grandma was furious when she heard this: "I am the one who gave you a mouthful of food!" ”
Honggu was about to speak, but her expression was distorted, and then a mouthful of blood spurted out of her mouth, and a lot of blood beads splashed on her grandmother.
Seeing this, Tang Jiu'er immediately stepped forward and touched Honggu's neck.
Honggu's mouth was blood, and she said with difficulty: "I'm sorry...... In this life, I have repaid his kindness...... Next...... Still...... You ......"
Honggu hung her head.
Grandma looked at Tang Jiu'er.
Tang Jiu'er said helplessly: "She's dead." ”
"Didn't you search for poison? How did she ......"
"She should have taken the Heart-Splitting Pill before she started, and the poison had already entered her viscera, and it was difficult for me to detect it."
Grandma staggered back two or three steps: "Deliberate, another traitor, good, very good......" Grandma rolled her eyes and planted backwards before she finished speaking!
"Door Master!" Tang Jiu'er hurriedly caught her, but grandma was already unconscious.
……
After all the medicinal materials were placed one by one, Hua Rou caressed Tang Xiao and walked to the edge of the pool.
"Hua Rou, after I enter the pool for a while, this sacred tree will slowly sink into the water, and the medicine will also dissolve in the pool water, I am injured, I don't know if I can withstand these poisons and successfully complete the inheritance, if I feel unwell, I will call you, please be sure to drag me out of the pool."
"Okay." Hua Rou nodded, and said with a worried face: "Then if you can't hold it, call me quickly, don't hold it hard!" ”
"Okay." Tang Xiao took a deep breath, stepped into the water, and then sat cross-legged on the stone platform in the pool.
At this time, the sacred tree really began to sink slowly.
Tang Xiao also began to pinch the trick with both hands.
Hua Rou was standing on the edge of the pool, and she was worried about Tang Xiao while curiously watching as the first layer of the sacred tree was completely submerged in the pool.
Soon, the clear pool water gradually turned pale green after the drug penetrated.
……
Tang Jiu'er held the silver needle and pierced it on her grandmother's tiger's mouth, gently twisting the silver needle.
Grandma woke up and opened her mouth to spit out a mouthful of phlegm.
"It's good to spit it out, you're too sad, and the phlegm is blocked......"
Grandma was so angry when she heard this: "A traitor! Where is it worth my grief? I'm angry that I'm missing a bait. ”
Tang Jiu'er frowned and looked at her stubborn donkey and said distressedly: "In front of me, you don't have to hold on......"
A sentence that knows the roots, and the grandmother is speechless.
Tang Jiu'er sighed lightly: "Why deceive yourself again? ”
Grandma lowered her head: "There are not many people who can make me really trust, and I ...... to her I don't fully trust it either, but ......"
"But on weekdays, after all, she stands in front of you and fights side by side with you, and it is common sense to believe her."
Grandma nodded, with some pain in her eyes.
"She hid it so well, and I was tricked by her."
Grandma looked up at Tang Jiu'er: "I'm cold and it's not good for me to guard against thieves, and what's even more angry is that the person surnamed Meng actually stuffed people into the Tang Gate before he asked me to cooperate." Grandma had a helpless wry smile on her face at this time: "Seeking skin with the tiger? This is really a game against the tiger! ”
"He is so scheming, his ambition must be not small."
"Indeed, if you plot against me alone, you will have a few calculations in the open and in the dark! The other ......" Grandma saw Tang Jiu'er's desolate eyes as she spoke, and her words stopped abruptly, and after a while, she lowered her head and said, "At the beginning, I shouldn't have agreed." ”
Tang Jiu'er was silent for a moment and whispered, "If you really feel indebted, just let Hua Rou go!" ”
"It's too late to say this, I've confessed everything I should have confessed, and this time I'll ...... Look at her creation! ”
Tang Jiu'er seemed to be a little more down-to-earth when she heard this: "As long as you are willing to let her go." ”
Grandma looked at Tang Jiu'er and stopped talking.
"By the way, what to do with Honggu's body?"
Grandma frowned and thought for a moment: "Bury it quietly, don't erect a monument." ”
"Okay."
"Also, if you follow the pigeon, there are still a few such points in the door."
"Yes."
"If the message doesn't come out, the two dogs are still useful."
"What if there was more than one?"
"Then use Honggu as bait."
Tang Jiu'er was stunned and looked at her grandmother in confusion: "But she has ......"
"If you don't say it, I don't say it, who knows?" Grandma's eyes returned to sharpness: "Who do I want from the Tang Sect to live, is it difficult?" ”
