Volume 1: Ancestral Mountain Burning Immortals - Altar of Caution Chapter 85: Mountain Rain is coming
"It's a corn nest!"
Yue Guanchao lay on the doorway and looked into the distance, a phantom figure walked farther and farther, he brought things closer to the flashlight, and sure enough, it was the yellow corn nest.
"How can someone send us food, be careful of fraud."
Utuman recalled Tang Dianrong's abnormality, and had to suspect that there was something strange about this corn nest, although it would not poison and kill people, other poisons that did not hinder life were still possible!
"I understand, Uncle Utuman, you are afraid that we will be poisoned, why don't you find something to try poison first."
Yue Guanchao had long expected this, and took the silver needle from Ah Ying's hand and pierced it into all the nests, making sure that the silver needle was not blackened, so he was slightly relieved.
"Don't rush to eat yet, feed these beasts some and see how they react."
Utuman looked at the rats in the corner of the wall, Yue Guanchao had to break off a little bit of each nest and throw it into the rat hole, the rats in the prison were not afraid of people, they squeaked and ate the nest head completely.
"It's okay to eat, but when you're out and about, you have to be cautious."
Utu Man saw that it was no problem to test the poison and taste it, so he was relieved to let them eat.
Everyone hadn't eaten since they entered Witch Coffin Town, and their chests were already hungry against their backs, and after Yue Guanchao divided the nest heads, they devoured and ate with relish.
When Hotaru saw the appearance of the nest head, a strange look flashed in her eyes.
"Hotaru, why don't you eat it?"
Lu Fengjian noticed that Ah Ying's eyes were showing sadness, and immediately knew what was going on, and he asked tentatively: "Do you know this person who is the head of the nest?" ”
Ah Ying thoughtfully broke open the corn nest, and a red date was boiled crispy, like a little red bean paste dotted on it.
She looked at everyone, and her eyes flashed: "I remember when I was a child, I didn't think the wotou tasted, and Daddy always boiled red dates and wrapped them in the wotou. ”
The implication of this sentence is obvious, the nest head was sent by Zhong Liangsheng, Song Siyuan recalled that Zhong Liangsheng couldn't bear Ah Ying's sad eyes at dusk, it was definitely not pretending, her eyes flashed:
"If the nest head was sent by Zhong Liangsheng, it means that Zhong Liangsheng is not of the same mind as Tang Dianrong, he may have a clear conscience, or he may simply not bear to be hurt by Ah Ying."
"Either way, it means that he may form an alliance with us, and even help us behind the scenes."
After listening to Song Siyuan's analysis, Yue Guanchao realized that things might take a turn for the better, and his breathing gradually became heavier: "But why doesn't he want to see us?" ”
Song Siyuan's eyes were firmly fixed on the nest head:
"Is it possible that Wu Yueniang and Tang Dianrong are controlling him, he can't contact us directly, he can only tell us his situation by sending a nest."
"That makes sense."
She paused, nodded and said, "Anyway, we are not alone, it is much better than being alone, it depends on how Tang Dianrong acts tomorrow." ”
……
The next morning, the morning finches were noisy.
Not long after Yue Guanchao woke up, the stone gate rumbled, and they pretended to be poisoned and collapsed on the ground according to the plan.
"Hey~hey! I got up and slept like a dead pig. ”
Seeing that they were still squinting, the bandits kept banging on the wall with their fire sticks, and the sound was so piercing that everyone frowned.
"Hurry up, don't embarrass the bandits, if you dare to play tricks again, your brain will collapse for you."
The bandits scolded and set them up and escorted them outside the shrine.
After being escorted out of the Tongniumen, Yue Guanchao took a closer look, Tang Dianrong and Wu Yueniang stood in front of the two carriages with radiant faces, and there were more than a dozen bandits in various costumes standing behind them.
They're all gearing up, ready to do a big job.
The blind old bandit bowed forward, with a flattering expression: "The big boss, Mrs. Wu, we have brought the people!" ”
"Just!"
"Just what?"
Wu Yueniang looked at the blind old bandit.
"It's just that they carry Luoyang shovels and climbing ropes in their backpacks, which look like they are used to dig tombs, should we throw them away?"
Wu Yueniang's eyes flashed with banter, and she looked at the old bandit:
"No, it turns out that they are also tomb robbers, since everything is complete, we are also happy to borrow flowers and offer Buddha, let's bring them all."
"Yes!"
Wu Yueniang is the most femme fatale, she stepped forward and stuck Yue Guanchao's mouth, wanting to determine if he was weak, if he was found at this time, it would be too dangerous.
Yue Guanchao resisted the desire to spit on her saliva, and deliberately let the halazi flow out of her chin, this woman is used to beauty, and she really dislikes it, so she doesn't have time to worry about him anymore.
"Brother and sister, how's that?"
Tang Dianrong asked.
Wu Yueniang frowned: "Chief Tang rest assured, these people have been poisoned by my centipede, if I don't personally develop the antidote, they will definitely not be able to detoxify, we can rest assured, they will not be run away by them along the way." ”
Tang Dianrong was happier than anyone else when he got the new treasure map, he nodded: "Okay, hurry up and stuff these people into the carriage, we are still waiting to go to the back mountain, but don't miss the time, as for the rest of the brothers, wait for my Qingtian whistle to give an order." ”
Since they were dragged to death, there must have been no good treatment, and the one-eyed old bandit stuffed them into the same carriage like cattle and sheep, and sent another bandit to drive the car, so he left with confidence.
With a click, the bandit whipped the horse's back, the carriage rumbled forward, and Tang Dianrong's treasure hunting convoy officially hit the road.
Yue Guanchao took off his backpack and looked behind him through the fence of the back window of the carriage.
Tang Dianrong and Wu Yueniang rode in the same carriage, Zhong Liangsheng happened to act as a groom to drive the horses for them, and the dozen or so bandits all shouted slogans and followed the carriage to step forward.
