Chapter 110: Master Yu Chi
After waiting for most of the day without movement, Han Mo remembered Xiao Ruyu's words, so he persuaded the prince to go to Qian Yiduo's Zhuangzi to wait. Shizi reluctantly agreed, thinking that he must ask Qian Yi to find more people to inquire about the news, this time they were afraid that there were not many people in the exposure zone, and many things could not be done.
Xiao Ruyu and the two guards successfully escaped the pursuers and hid in a forest. At this time, they didn't care about it, and the three of them found a clean place to sit.
"Miss Xiao, what should we do next?" The guard asked as he wiped his sweat. He ran all the way with Guard B on his back, tired and hot. Originally, it was good to change and let the guard carry him for a while, but the enemy chased too closely and had no chance to change, so he could only grit his teeth and run, feeling that his waist was about to break.
You said that carrying a girl on your back is nephrite and fragrant, but what is it to carry a big man? Guard A looked at Guard B's big man and felt a little embarrassed, he actually ran all the way with a stinky man on his back, and he really didn't have the face to say when he went back.
"Get some rest, and we'll go that way later." Xiao Ruyu pointed to the side of the woods, "After you go out, you will go directly to the Qianjia Villa and wait for the prince." Be careful not to be targeted. ”
"What about the girl?" Guard B asked. Listening to her, she wouldn't go with them to Qianjia Villa to wait for the son.
"I still have something to do, you see the prince to reassure the son, I will go back in a few days." Xiao Ruyu remembered what Wang Quan had said, and when she thought of the poppies all over the mountains, she couldn't sit still. She wanted to go to the Valley of Herbs and find a way to dispose of the poppies by the way.
She didn't know before, but now that she knows, she must not stand idly by. It's better to deal with this harmful thing as soon as possible. It is the flowering period of the opium poppy, and it will be too late for it to bear fruit.
"The prince will blame us." Guard A said in a low voice, and Guard B also nodded, but they didn't dare to say anything, the girl in front of them was not a good stubble, and there was absolutely no good fruit to eat if she was provoked.
"When I see the prince, I will intercede for you." Xiao Ruyu glared at them, two big men, what do they look like two quails with their heads shrunk at this moment.
The three of them parted at the edge of the woods, and Xiao Ruyu walked straight to the eastern part of Lingnan. She thought a lot along the way, and now it is certain that these poppy growers absolutely know the role of opium poppies, and they plant them on a large scale, either to control people or to make money.
According to Wang Quan, a large area of planting was carried out in Baicao Valley last year, so where did the things that were processed last year go? Thinking of Bai Ziqian, she felt that it was very likely that she had entered the capital.
I don't know if Zhang Renhe has it in his hand, this Wei Chi family has a connection with Zhang Renhe, it should belong to the prince's forces, isn't the prince assassinated and injured very seriously, looking at the actions of the people here, there is no meaning of restraint at all, it seems that the prince's serious injury needs to be verified.
I have to check Zhang Renhe when I go back. Even if he didn't have a fairy drunk, he should know something. Can't be so cheap for him, Meng Qianluo's matter hasn't been figured out yet
After getting so many poppies, I don't know what the prince wants to do? Could it be that his injury was fake, and the ultimate goal was to wipe out all these brothers and nephews who were competing with him? That's a lot of appetite.
And who is the one who assassinated the son of the world on the road? It seems that the crown prince is the most likely, he is afraid that the poppy matter will be exposed, so he ambushes the prince on the road, which can be said to be in the past.
But these people in ambush turned out to have something to do with the murderous Gu, the prince should have a place to raise Gu, if this place is in Baicao Valley, it seems that it is not very likely. These Gu are very destructive, and if one is not well controlled, those poppies will become the biggest victims. Those poisonous Gu also like these things, and when they eat it, they will definitely go crazy with excitement, and they can't control it anymore.
I inquired as I walked, and finally arrived at Baicao Valley in the evening. The Valley of Hundred Grass is close to a high mountain, not like a valley, but like a plain backed by a mountain, covering a very large area, and the whole stretches up the mountain. The Villa is in the valley.
Xiao Ruyu walked around the neighborhood and found that the entire valley was not easy to enter except for a well-guarded entrance and exit.
Except for the exit to the main road, the rest of the exposed territory is isolated by various poisonous plants, and if you are not careful, you will be poisoned to death. There are many kinds of poisonous plants, layer upon layer, and there is a deep ditch in the innermost, in which all kinds of poisonous snakes, poisonous insects, poisonous spiders and other poisons are winding and circling, making people shudder when they see it.
Xiao Ruyu scolded: It's really perverted, with so many poisonous plants and poisons, even the gods are not easy to enter. Fortunately, my sister is not a fairy, and my sister has antidote pills and anthelmintic drugs. These toxic areas are really not too much trouble for her. The biggest trouble is that the poison ditch is too wide, how can it be passed without light work. It's a pity that her iron gripper was left on the wall of Huacheng, otherwise she could have climbed over with the help of ropes.
Seeing that the sky was still a little bright, she found a hidden place to sit down and rest, and ate some dry food with her by the way. took out an insect repellent pill and lay on the ground in a daze for a while, and then changed into black clothes, you must remember to modify it a little, it is better to become a man, there will definitely be a tough battle to fight tonight.
When Xiao Ruyu was resting, Han Yixuan was also rushing to Baicao Valley. He and Master stayed in a small inn in the middle of nowhere. The innkeeper was Master's men, and there they heard what they wanted to know.
The Lingnan forces are very complicated, and even the forces in Huacheng have their own masters, in order to be more hidden, they opened such a small inn, so that they can cover people's eyes and ears to facilitate contact, and do things more flexibly.
The innkeeper's name is Zhang Qing, a middle-aged man about thirty years old, with a mustache, and the whole person looks very shrewd and capable. He told Yan Feiyu's master and apprentice that he had already inquired about it, Chen Xiao and they went to Baicao Valley to buy medicine, and that medicine was only available in Baicao Valley, but Baicao Valley was not sold out, and they didn't bring any money, so it was unlikely that they would buy it, and it was not easy to steal it.
They have been going for several days, and there is no news of them coming back until now, and they heard that Baicao Valley is very well defended, and there are all kinds of poisonous snakes and poisonous plants outside, and they may be caught or killed.
Han Yixuan discussed it with his master and felt that it was necessary to go into Baicao Valley to have a look on the spot. What is planted in this Hundred Grass Valley, which is mysterious? If you can't find Chen Xiao, maybe you can find clues in the valley.
Now it is certain that this Baicao Valley and Chen Xiao definitely do not belong to the same force, otherwise Chen Xiao and they would not have to secretly enter Baicao Valley to steal medicine.
When I came to Baicao Valley, it was already dark. He knew that there were a lot of poisonous plants and poisonous insects outside Baicao Valley, so he didn't dare to hold it up, so he took out the two pills that the master gave him and swallowed them. I heard that this elixir was given by General Xiao's goddaughter, and the detoxification effect is good.
Relying on his light skills, he stepped on the top of the poisonous plant and kept leaping, and finally crossed the poisonous ditch and successfully entered the Baicao Valley.
Xiao Ruyu was more struggling here, she relied on the antidote pill in her hand, vigorously peeled off all kinds of poisonous plants, and slowly passed through it. When she came to the poisonous insect ditch, she chopped a long stick, and finally crossed the poisonous ditch with a pole vault.
Xiao Ruyu clapped her hands and let out a long breath, she was really depressed, if her light skills were good, she wouldn't have to work so hard. Look at this body as if fleeing, it's all tears.
Walk through a large medicine field and run towards the brightly lit courtyard. The courtyard was very large, and there were many lanterns hanging on the courtyard wall, which illuminated the courtyard outside and inside the courtyard very brightly.
Xiao Ruyu originally wanted to see where the poppy field was first, but suddenly remembered that the prince of England had said that his younger brother, Han Wenbai, the second son of the British Prince's Mansion, had disappeared near Baicao Valley, and maybe he could find clues by looking here.
found a secluded spot and climbed the courtyard wall, Xiao Ruyu leaned against the wall and looked down, the yard was very large, and the layout was also very elaborate and chic. Although at night, you can see the garden and gazebo, rockery and promenade in the courtyard. There are also lanterns hanging all over the yard, especially the path that leads to the garden, and there are even more lanterns, one at almost every step.
There is a pavilion in the middle of the path, and there is a stone table on it, and various snacks and fruits are placed on the stone table. Who is so particular? Xiao Ruyu pouted, it was really an idle egg, but she hated that she could only drink the northwest wind here. No, it's the end of summer, and I don't even have a northwest wind to drink.
I almost drooled at those snacks, and I was a little hungry again. Xiao Ruyu lightly climbed down the courtyard wall and hid behind a bush of flowers, ready to take a look at the situation first.
There was a sound of hairpin ringing, and the rich fragrance of women's rouge gouache came from the air, Xiao Ruyu rubbed her nose vigorously, her nose was too sensitive and not very good, she smelled the fragrance before she saw anyone, and she really wanted to sneeze.
"Owner, the gazebo in front is ready, you can go to the garden with all the beauties." A flattering voice came, and a middle-aged man with a thin body and a sheep's beard who described obscenity said to a middle-aged man with a somewhat serious face with a smile. As he spoke, several maids walked towards the pavilion with lanterns, and when they walked into the pavilion, they separated, holding lanterns and standing quietly.
The man was dressed in a light-pigmented coat, and although the lights were bright, he could not say what color it was. He hummed, then walked slowly towards the gazebo with his hands behind his back with a relaxed expression.
This person should be the Zhuangzi Wei Chixiong of Yuchi Villa, the cover of the night can't see what he looks like, he only feels that his aura is a little gray, his figure is not tall enough, and he walks a little vainly, isn't he eating too many poppies, right? Xiao Ruyu thought maliciously.
He was followed by seven or eight brightly dressed women, and the strong smell of fat powder came from them.
Although there are many women, they are very quiet, no one laughs and fights, it seems that either the owner of the village is good at teaching the rules or the owner of the village is particularly vicious and vicious, and no one dares to cause trouble. Xiao Ruyu felt that the latter was the most likely.
