Chapter 099: Can't Move
"What's the news? How much am I worth? ”
"The merchant who returned from the south brought back a few reward orders, saying that the general Zhenxi of the Nanyue Dynasty was killed by Yan Siniang, the female killer of the Night Rain Pavilion, and the court offered a reward of five hundred taels of silver to capture Yan Siniang......"
"General Zhenxi of the South Vietnamese Dynasty was killed?!"
"Isn't it? Without General Zhenxi, the South Vietnamese army has no leader, and it is losing and retreating, and recently there are people from the Dragon and Tiger Army who have come to Rouge Island to recruit troops, saying that General Wushu is about to launch a general attack on Huifeng Ridge......"
"Why are you so happy about the death of a man in battle?"
"Don't just look at the dead man's business, as long as the war between the two countries is over, the border can be opened, and the caravans on the east and west sides come and go, and I can make money by matching business everywhere, and when the money is saved, I will go to the street to buy a house, and then go to Ji Ye's house to marry you back......"
"You, you muddy mouth, who said I was going to marry you?!"
Listening to the conversation between the kidnapper Li and Mrs. Gu outside, Ling Li clenched his fists.
The hunt in Xiangji Temple has been blamed on Yan Siniang. This doesn't matter much, the most important thing is that the news of his "killing" has spread to Xili! Wushu refuted his fear, and he definitely gathered his forces to storm Huifeng Ridge. And once the Huifeng Ridge is lost, the entire battle situation will be completely reversed! Chu Qing was not far away and took himself to Rouge Continent, it turned out that he had a plan, and only when the Wushu Refutation broke through the Huifeng Ridge, the Xili Wang Court would be able to use himself to propose to Nanyue the conditions of land cession and compensation......
After Ling Li calculated the whole situation in his mind, the vest was even more cold sweating.
He found the three-edged knife hidden under the pillow mat, if he couldn't escape, his best choice was - death!
In the evening, as soon as Shu Mei came back from the Worm Valley, he asked Gu Pozi about Ling Li's situation on this day.
"Your brother is still the same as yesterday, let's talk about changes, he has turned over more times today. In the past, he was lying flat, but today I saw him tossing and turning back and forth a few times......"
"Could it be that you are uncomfortable after taking medicine??"
He didn't say it. But I drink more water today. ”
"Thank you Granny Gu, thank you for your hard work." According to the usual practice in the past, Shu Mei stuffed five copper coins into Gu Pozi's hand. Although Ji Da Pang asked Mrs. Gu to take care of her for free, Shu Mei gave her a few coins privately every day to express her gratitude in order to make this mother-in-law more dedicated.
After receiving Shu Mei's money, Gu Pozi's heart moved, so she pulled Shu Mei's hand close to her ear and said, "Miss Mu, in the future, the abductor Li will sell you news, don't give him money, if you want to know anything, just ask me......"
"Huh? Has Li Ye been here today? ”
"But isn't it, he said that the merchant from the south brought back a court reward order to arrest an assassin named Yan Siniang, just such a news, he is still ready to blackmail your money! I think the girl is a kind person, and I will help you inquire about this news in the future......"
Hearing the "Reward Order" and "Yan Siniang", Shu Mei was stunned, and she didn't listen to a word of Gu Pozi's words.
"Miss Mu, your brother has already fed the medicine for the night and used it for dinner, so I'll leave first."
"Oh. Okay, thank you Granny Gu. ”
After seeing Mrs. Gu leave, Shu Mei's heart went up and down, and she couldn't live in peace. The bounty orders of the South Vietnamese Imperial Court have all been passed to Rouge Chau?! That is, it is not safe here now? Although Brother Ling Li has woken up, he is still sick in bed, where can he hide?!
Shu Mei stood in a daze in the courtyard, and the auspicious omen "tuk tuk" tapped the ground with her hooves to remind her that she was hungry and wanted to eat. Shu Mei reacted, bolted the auspicious omen to the horse stake, went to the side house to pick up hay and came out, and took a water scoop to fetch water in the clay pot.
The moment she leaned over, she was stunned when she saw the face in the clay jar.
There is a portrait of Shen Chan on the reward order, although he went out with either a Mi Li or a face scarf, but Gu Pozi and Guo Dafu, who have been in contact with a lot, have also seen their faces.
- "I advise the girl not to do stupid things, the disguised ointment has already blended with your skin, and if you scratch this layer on your face, you will not be able to see people at all." ”
Thinking of the words of the black-hearted woman in Tianxianglou, Shu Mei touched his face, which was generally touchless, and his heart was ruthless: when he went to Worm Valley tomorrow, he pretended to be dizzy and plunged into the cactus!!
With a plan in his heart, Shu Mei calmed down a lot.
After taking care of Ji Zhao and drinking water, she went to the kitchen to gnaw the chicken bones that Gu Pozi fished out of the soup every day, and after scribbling her dinner, she went to the water point with a clay pot to fetch water and came back. When a pot of hot water was boiled and served in a wooden basin to Ling Li's room, it was already dark outside.
Ling Li lay facing the wooden window, as if he had fallen asleep.
Shu Mei put the wooden basin on the table next to the bed, lit the anointing oil lamp with a fire fold, turned around and was about to call him, her hand was suddenly pulled violently, only to feel a flower in front of her, before she could react, she was restrained hands and feet firmly pressed on the bed, and a cold sharp knife was pressed against her neck.
Shu Mei was frightened not lightly, chest. Her chest fluctuated violently, and when she was ready to breathe, she saw clearly that the person in front of her was Ling Li, not the thief she imagined in her mind, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Brother, it's me." ”
"Say, who are you?!" Ling Li pressed the hand on her shoulder and neck, and trembled a little because the force was too strong.
"I, I'm ...... It's sunny. ”
Shu Mei saw that the green tendons at the corners of his forehead had skyrocketed, his face was red, and although his black eyes were sloppy, they revealed a murderous aura.
"Why are you pretending to be Shen Chan? Did the Vulture Refute send you?! ”
"I don't know the Vulture."
"Then why did you kidnap me here?!"
"As I said, your second brother is going to kill you...... Brother, are you feeling unwell now? ”
Ling Li was indeed very uncomfortable, since he took the night medicine, his body was on fire. He drank a lot of water, but he still couldn't extinguish the fire in his body. And in order to restrain her with one move, Fang Cai used too much force, and at this moment, he only felt that the blood in his whole body was surging and rushing, and it was difficult to control. This woman must have been poisoned in the medicine!!
Seeing that Ling Li bit his lip and was silent, as if he was enduring the discomfort, Shu Mei hesitated, raised his head suddenly, and put his forehead on his face. Even through the thick transfiguration ointment, she felt his face burn badly!
Her sudden approach caught him off guard. The soft and cold skin, with a faint scent of grass, made his hot body feel like touching the cool lake water, and his mind was instantly blank, and he just wanted to devote himself to it, and he couldn't care about it anymore.
"It seems that Dr. Guo has newly prescribed this medicine......"
Before Shu Mei's words were finished, a dark shadow suddenly pressed down, and her lips were sealed by his hot lips. She felt suffocated, but his big hot hand clasped her head, making her unable to move at all.
