Chapter 54: VIP Cell
There was a brazier in the dungeon, and Yun Zhou followed me to inspect everywhere in the morning, and when he should have been sleeping, he followed me into the dungeon, and began to yawn after sitting in front of the brazier for a while, I was afraid that his head would sink into the brazier, and I saw him go to bed. The guards Jia and Xin couldn't stand the sleepiness and went to sleep in a group.
The other cells are deep underground, but the VIP cell we live in is a semi-basement with a 10-centimeter-high and half-meter-wide window.
The air window is not equipped with a railing, because no normal person can get out of it.
I heard the sound of rain coming in through the window, and the dry cell was gradually filled with dampness.
I covered Yunzhou with a quilt and added a few sticks of firewood to the brazier.
According to modern time, it should be 10 o'clock at night, in ancient times, basically everyone should sleep at this time, but the footsteps of the Lu family have not stopped tonight.
Even in the middle of the night when the rain was pouring down, there were still people coming and going from the courtyards.
There were also people who tried to get close to the dungeon and were stopped by the guards.
At about half past ten, someone from the Lu family came and told me that the second master had found evidence, the master of the Lu League died of missing internal organs, and today I am the only doctor in the Lu Mansion who has this ability, and I can not use poison, do not release Gu, and do not destroy people's epidermis, causing people to die.
Second Master Lu asked his subordinates to tell me and admit the crime happily, he allowed me to commit suicide, one life for another, and this matter was over, and it would not affect others.
The subordinates in charge of the communication never dared to look me in the eyes, and their tone and attitude were very humble.
"You go and tell Second Master Lu that my family is asleep, and it is inconvenient to wake them up, tomorrow morning, I will use my actions to give him an answer."
The servant secretly glanced up at me, and saw me smiling at the corner of my mouth, looking at him with a 'sincere' gaze.
He shuddered and saluted, and went back to deliver the word.
He came alone, carrying only a lantern, and walked so light that he could not hear the sound of footsteps.
He spoke softly, so he didn't wake up the guards Jia, Xin, and Yunzhou.
After a while, there was another sound of the piano outside the window, although the sound of the piano was pleasant, but there was always a sense of depression when it sounded.
Moreover, the sound of the piano seems to be transmitted into the courtyard at the same time from all directions, and the specific location of the piano cannot be distinguished.
The Lu family nursing home looked for the sound, and a team exchanged hands with someone, and the sound of the piano changed from low to high, from leisurely to rapid, before it seemed to be humming a lyrical tune, and then it seemed to be singing rock and roll.
The voice woke up the guards and them, and Yun Zhou sat up with a hazy look for the source of the sound.
"Sleep, it's okay, someone is fighting outside, can't get in."
Yun Zhou and the guard Jia immediately lay back, covered their heads with the quilt and continued to sleep.
The guqin performance artists outside were actually killing, and the flames of life were extinguished in the sound of her piano.
"Hey, your last name is Ann? Hum! Are you really a miracle doctor? A figure suddenly flashed outside the cell door, and the delicate voice asked in a tone full of disdain.
I saw that the person who came was the little girl who was hiding in the rockery before, she was locked up in the depths of the ground, and she was released so quickly?
Wrong!
The soles of her shoes were stained with blood, and there was a spot of blood on her skirt, except for the burned place, the other parts of her dress were still intact, and she should not have been tortured after coming in, and the blood was not hers.
She killed the guards and escaped from prison......
"I'm not a miracle doctor, I'm just an ordinary secret guard."
"Heh, hell, I don't care if you're a miracle doctor or not, I just ask if you can cure strange diseases? If I could, I'd take you out! ”
"No, you're good to go."
"But you cured Old Ghost Lu's strange disease."
"That's his luck, I'm just a quack doctor who cares about it, who knows that the blind cat has met a dead mouse, if you want to heal someone you cherish, it's best not to look for me."
"I'll pay a lot of money!"
"How much?"
"Ten thousand taels, gold."
"Take me to see the patient, some diseases can't be delayed."
"But you can't go with them."
"Forget it, don't ask for wisdom."
"It seems that your master is more important than ten thousand taels of gold."
"Yes."
"Very well, I'll pick you up when I'm back." The little girl walked as she spoke, and when she reached the entrance of the VIP cell, the guards spotted her, but did not make a move with her, and immediately ran out to inform the others.
After she was gone, the poisoned servant who had been caught came running up and stood outside our cell door, staring at me with a wicked grin.
"Doctor An, what does it feel like to lose your freedom? You worked hard for the Lu family, but they were locked up as a murderer, hahaha, it's ironic, anyway, the surname Lu will definitely find evidence to prove that you killed the leader of the Lu League, and tomorrow, you will definitely die, so it's better to send you on the road now, so you won't suffer the pain of being stabbed. ”
"Have you ever heard a word?"
"What?"
"The villain died from talking too much?"
"Hahahaha, I know how the surname Lu arranged you, could it be that he made it right? Do you really have the means to win people's hearts and minds from the air? ”
"What do you think...... Do I have any? ”
"I don't think you have!" As he spoke, the servant spat out a small pill from his mouth, rubbed it twice in his palm, and threw it into the cell.
I activated my ability and turned my qi into a needle, which passed through the gap in the bars and struck the servants outside.
He was about to throw the pill into the cell when he felt something strange and quickly dodged, but unfortunately his skills were not strong enough to avoid all the qi needles.
A few of them penetrated his arms and calves, and if it was an ordinary hidden weapon, as long as it was not highly poisonous, the wounds would not be tight in the limbs.
However, my qi needles did not hit the target and it was over, they entered the human body and re-transformed into 'qi', and I controlled them to jump at will, jumping straight into his heart and making him die of a 'heart attack'.
The pill in his hand didn't have time to be thrown out again, so it fell to the ground, and a puff of yellow smoke rose to the ground, and I luckily pushed the air current, and the yellow smoke was 'blown' to the servants.
The yellow smoke was like dust, and when it was raised, it fell back to the ground, right on the corpse of the servant.
The corpse turned into yellow pus in an instant, and even the clothes melted together.
"Ann~"
"Madame!"
"What's wrong with you, ma'am?"
Yun Zhou, the guard Jia and Xin were awakened by the shouts of the servants, got up and jumped out of bed, came to my side, saw a puddle of yellow water on the ground outside the door, and hurriedly checked if I had any injuries.
"I'm fine, you guys go back to sleep, it's still early."
"We don't sleep, it seems that someone wants to harm you, we have to fight up to protect you and your son."
"yes, what kind of poison is this? Is it so domineering? ”
Yun Zhou didn't say long sentences, just nervously took my hand and looked at it over and over.
"Corpse powder, extremely corrosive, don't worry, I can solve it." The first half of this sentence was for the guards Jia and them, and the second half of the sentence was for Yun Zhou.
"Huh? What's the sound outside? It seems that someone is playing the piano. The guard Jia noticed the movement outside the window at this time, and hurriedly ran under the air window to listen.
"It's raining so hard, who's playing the piano? Tonight is the ...... of the Lord of the Lu League" The guard Xin also looked puzzled, and leaned under the window, he wanted to look out, but the window was a head higher than him, and he couldn't see outside on tiptoe.
