Chapter 393: Xuan Wu poisoned Taihao to save him

Xuan Wu carefully cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks in front of Taihao, and there were still a few traces of unfinished soup on the side of the bowl, exuding a faint aroma. He was light-hearted, for fear of disturbing the legendary Lord Taihao. After cleaning up, he raised his head and said respectfully to Taihao: "Lord Taihao, if today's meal is still palatable, I will retire first." I'll come back to see you tomorrow morning. ”

Taihao pretended to be quiet, as if nothing in the world could shake his heart. He nodded slightly, in response to Xuan Wu's words.

Seeing that Taihao had no other instructions, Xuan Wu turned around and left the cave. As soon as he came out of the cave, he saw that Mocking Wind and Baxia were enjoying those two delicious dishes. While chewing the food, Baxia was full of praise and said: "Xuan Wu, your craftsmanship is really amazing, this dish is really a rare delicacy in the world." In the future, we will have to make it for us often, so that we can also taste the taste of this immortal. ”

Mocking Feng also chimed in: "That's right, Xuan Wu, your cooking skills are really worthy of your reputation." Not only is this dish delicious, but each dish is unique and will leave me with a long aftertaste. ”

Xuan Wu was happy when he heard this, and hurriedly responded: "It's good that the two heads like it, as long as you want to eat, I am willing to cook for you at any time." ”

After speaking, Xuan Wu was busy cleaning up the plates on the table, preparing to go back to the back kitchen to continue preparing the ingredients for tomorrow morning.

Xuan Wu stepped into the back kitchen, and suddenly heard movement in the corner, he thought that Xuan Liu was busy. So, he said softly: "Xuanliu, I just went to visit Lord Taihao, his condition is quite stable now, we have to quickly find a way to rescue him from that cave." ”

However, there was silence in the back kitchen, and no one answered him. Xuan Wu frowned slightly, and a trace of doubt appeared in his heart. He turned slowly, only to see a figure looming in the shadows in the corner. Xuan Wu's heartbeat accelerated instantly, he clenched his fists, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" Why here? ”

The man slowly stepped out of the shadows, revealing a resolute face, which was the blow. His eyes were like torches, he looked directly at Xuan Wu, and said, "You don't have to panic, I have no malicious intent. I just heard what you said, and it seems that you are also planning to rescue Lord Taihao? ”

Xuan Wu's heart tightened, he knew that Blower must have heard his previous conversation, but he still wanted to test it, so he pretended to know nothing and denied it: "You...... You heard me wrong, I don't know what Taihao-sama is, who are you? Why trespass in the back kitchen? ”

Drum Feng smiled slightly, as if he had seen through Xuan Wu's thoughts, and he said: "In the lower Drum Wind, it is the one who was captured by the 'Nine Sons of the Dragon' together with Lord Taihao. I don't mean anything, I just want to join forces with you to rescue Lord Taihao. ”

Xuan Wu was shocked, he didn't expect that the person in front of him turned out to be Gufeng, the person who was being searched for by the entire Minions Mountain. He hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Brushing wind? Those minions in the mountains are looking for you today? ”

A hint of determination flashed in Brisk's eyes, and he said in a deep voice, "That's right, so you have to trust me." ”

Xuan Wu didn't think much about it after listening to the words of the blast, he took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I want to believe you." But how can we rescue Lord Taihao? ”

Blower Feng gently took out a packet of medicinal powder from his arms and handed it to Xuan Wu, his eyes were firm and deep, and his voice carried undoubted determination: "Early tomorrow morning, you will mix this packet of medicinal powder into the meal, and let the mocking wind, the tyrants, and those minions who are guarding in front of the cave take it." Once the effect of the medicine is applied, we can take the opportunity to rescue Taihao-sama and quickly evacuate this place. ”

Xuan Wu took the packet of medicinal powder, an inexplicable fear and uneasiness surged in his heart, and he asked hesitantly, "Is this ...... What kind of medicine is this? ”

Gu Feng smiled slightly, and a chill flashed in his eyes: "This is the 'Netherworld Eclipse Heart Dispersion' given to me by the family teacher, just a small bite, it can make people's souls fly away and die in Huangquan." ”

When Xuan Wuyi heard this, his face suddenly turned pale, he hurriedly pushed the medicine powder back to the blast, shook his head again and again, and said, "No, this is absolutely not good!" You asked me to poison and kill the two heads of Mock Wind and Baxia? That's disrespectful! If I do, my brother and I will die! Let's find another way. ”

Seeing this, Blower sighed softly, he knew Xuan Wu's worries and fears, but he also knew that this was the only way to rescue Lord Taihao. He took a deep breath, handed the medicinal powder to Xuan Wu again, and said in a deep voice, "Xuan Wu, I know what you're worried about. But trust me, it's the only way. ”

Xuan Wu's brows were tightly locked, and his heart was turbulent. He looked at the blast, and his voice trembled with a hint: "This minion on Shude Mountain is tightly guarded, I'm really worried that if we fail to save Lord Taihao in the end, we will even take our own lives." ”

Hearing this, he smiled slightly, and his eyes revealed a kind of calmness and confidence: "Xuan Wu, don't worry, everything is under my control." If you're really afraid of getting yourself in trouble, put less powder. As soon as the dose is small, they will only fall into a coma, and they will not worry about their lives. ”

Xuan Wu listened to the words of the wind, and his heart throbbed. He knew that Blower had a point, but the fear and worry in his heart still persisted. However, when the calm and majestic figure of Lord Taihao appeared in his mind, the hesitation in his heart instantly dissipated.

He took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and took the powder: "Okay, I promise you." For the sake of Lord Taihao, I fight! ”

Seeing this, a hint of gratitude flashed in Blaw's eyes. He patted Xuan Wu on the shoulder, and his voice was firm: "Okay, tomorrow morning, we will act." Remember, do everything with care, not carelessly. ”

Xuan Wu nodded, his eyes shining with determination.

Xuan Wu returned to his bedroom and closed the door lightly. He looked around and saw that Xuanliu's bed was still empty, and it was clear that he had not returned yet. Although Xuan Wu had some doubts in his heart, he thought that Xuan Liu might have something to delay, so he didn't think much about it, and lay down on the bed, and his tired body soon fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, the sun shone on Xuan Wu's face through the window lattice, and he slowly opened his eyes, only to see that Xuan Liu was already sitting on the edge of the bed. Xuan Wu rubbed his sleepy eyes and said with a smile: "You woke up quite early, why didn't you come back so late last night?" Isn't it where to go and have a good time? ”

When Xuan Liu heard this, he put away his long sword and said to Xuan Wu: "Fifth brother, I didn't go to have a good time last night. I asked a few minions for an important piece of news. Lord Taihao was originally escorted from Wurong City by several masters, and they seemed to want Lord Taihao to hand over some cheats, but Lord Taihao resolutely refused. ”

When Xuan Wu heard this, his heart was shocked, he knew that Lord Taihao's martial arts were strong, but now he had fallen into such a situation, which was really suffocating. A look of determination flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "I met Master Taihao last night and said a few words to him. I'm going to find a way to get him out today. ”

When Xuan Liu heard this, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes, and he nodded and said, "Fifth brother, I'll go with you." What you need me to do, you ask. ”

Xuan Wu patted Xuan Liu's shoulder and said, "Good brother, I feel much more relieved to have you." But you can't come with me, you go pack your things now, and throw them down the cliff, and remember to be careful so that no one finds out. After throwing it away, you immediately go to the bottom of the mountain and wait for me, and if the master asks you, you will say that you will go down the mountain to buy meat. ”

Xuan Liu's face showed a look of confusion, and he asked, "Fifth brother, how are you going to rescue Lord Taihao?" Do you have any ideas? ”

Xuan Wu smiled slightly, and his eyes revealed a kind of mystery and firmness: "Don't ask more, I have my own clever plan." You just have to do what I say and wait for us at the bottom of the mountain. ”

When Xuan Liu heard this, although he was still a little puzzled in his heart, when he saw Xuan Wu's determined eyes, he didn't ask any more. He nodded and said, "Okay, I believe in you, Fifth Brother." Then I'll go pack my things and get ready to go down. ”

Xuan Wu looked at the back of Xuan Liu's departure, but his heart was full of ups and downs. He knew that this operation was full of unknowns and dangers, but he was ready, and he was willing to pay any price in order to rescue Lord Taihao.

He turned around and walked to the window, looked at the rolling mountains in the distance, and silently thought in his heart: "Lord Taihao, you must hold on." I'll definitely find a way to get you out. His voice was low, but it was full of determination and determination.

At this time, the sun shines through the clouds and sprinkles on the mountains, covering the land with a golden glow. Xuan Wu took a deep breath of fresh air, his heart full of anticipation and hope.

When Xuan Wu came to the back kitchen, he saw that the wind was curled up in the corner, obviously spending a long, silent night. When Blower Feng saw Xuan Wu, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, but he quickly covered it up and returned to his former composure.

Xuan Wu smiled slightly and said, "Blast Hero, you have worked hard, you have been staying here last night." ”

Blower nodded, not saying more.

Xuan Wu didn't ask any more questions, he turned around and started to get busy, preparing to cook a few delicious dishes for Mock Wind and Baxia. He skillfully wielded the kitchen knife, with a neat hand, and pieces of meat as thin as cicada's wings flew under his knife. Next, he lights the fire, heats the pot, pours in the golden cooking oil, and when the oil is hot, gently puts the slices of meat into the pot.

The slices of meat quickly change color in the hot oil, giving off an enticing aroma. Xuan Wu quickly added various seasonings, stir-fried a few times, and a piece of meat with good color and flavor came out of the pot.

Then he moved on to the next dish. I saw him wash and cut the tender vegetables and put them in a pot to steam. When the vegetables are cooked until they are medium-rare, he adds a special sauce and stirs gently to coat each slice of vegetables evenly.

As the dishes are completed, the entire kitchen is filled with mouth-watering aromas. Brisky couldn't help but swallow, his eyes revealing a desire for food.

Xuan Wu looked at the appearance of the blower and said with a smile: "Don't worry, there is still one last soup." ”

As he spoke, he began to make the soup. He used the finest herbs and ingredients, and after careful boiling, he finally boiled a nourishing soup with good color and flavor.

By the time all the dishes are ready, the whole kitchen is full of aromas.

Xuan Wu took a deep breath and slowly took out the bag of "Netherworld Eclipse Heart Dispersion" that exuded a gloomy cold air from his arms. His fingers rubbed the paper bag lightly, as if caressing an extremely dangerous yet powerful creature. He silently recited the instructions of the wind in his heart, and carefully sprinkled the powder on top of the steaming meal. The medicinal powder was silently integrated into the meal, as if it was a messenger of death, quietly waiting for the arrival of the mocking wind and the tyrant.

Xuanwu's technique of sprinkling medicine is extremely skillful, and he knows the importance of the amount of medicine, not more or less. He just wanted to make Mocking Wind and Baxia temporarily ineffective, not really take their lives. Therefore, the amount of medicine he sprinkled was just right, which could not only ensure the onset of the effect of the medicine, but also not let the two of them die.

After sprinkling the medicinal powder, Xuan Wu covered the meal and held it in his hand, with a hint of determination on his face. He turned to the blast and said, "I'm going, and you're waiting here." As soon as they get their strength, you act immediately. ”

Blower nodded, a trace of gratitude and trust flashed in his eyes: "Fifth Brother Xuan, you must be cautious. Remember, our goal is to rescue Taihao, and don't let Taihao eat these meals. ”

Xuan Wu nodded deeply, his eyes flashing with determination: "Well, I know. You can rest assured. ”

After saying that, Xuan Wu turned around and walked out of the back kitchen and walked towards the cave where Taihao was held. His steps are firm and powerful, as if each step is on the node of fate.

Outside the cave, the sunlight shone dappled light and shadow through the treetops, and Mock Wind and Baxia were standing at the entrance of the cave, and they saw Xuan Wu coming with a few plates of steaming food from a distance. The aroma of the meal drifted in the wind, causing his nose to move, and a hint of approval flashed in his eyes.

Baxia smiled: "Haha, I just smelled a mouth-watering aroma in the distance, and I knew that our Xuanwu Imperial Chef had displayed superb cooking skills and prepared a good meal for us." Tell me, what delicious dishes did you make this time? ”

Xuan Wu smiled slightly, and carefully placed the food on the stone table, the dishes were brightly colored and fragrant, which made people appetize. He said respectfully: "Two heads, please take a look." Today I made a few good dishes and brought them to enjoy with the two heads and all the minions and brothers. ”

Mocking Feng glanced at the dishes on the table, raised his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly asked, "Oh? Xuan Wu, did you make food for that Taihao who was locked up in the cave? ”

Xuan Wu's heart tightened, but his face was silent, he deliberately pretended to be disdainful, and said, "Are you talking about the man who was imprisoned?" Hmph, how can that kind of thief deserve such a delicious meal? I prepared some coarse chaff leaves for him, barely filling his stomach. How can such a good meal be enjoyed by him? ”

Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a meaningful smile, and he responded: "Xuanwu, it's not right for you to say that. It's okay for us to go hungry, but we must not starve this guest in the cave. You know, we brought him all the way to him, and what he has in him is very important to us, and it is the key to our operation. ”

He bowed his head and said, "Yes, the master is teaching." I'm going to prepare some more good wine and food, so that the distinguished guest can also taste our handiwork. With that, he prepared to turn and leave.
