025 Po 7
"Is that so? I see. Po nodded, his face still calm.
Little Lady Qiao had already been accustomed to her unhurried and unhurried temperament, and when she saw this, she continued to be desperately anxious: "County Lord, aren't you in a hurry? Do you really want to marry someone surnamed Chu and be the lord's wife here?"
"I don't want to. Po shook his head.
"That ......"
"I can't do this accurately, I'll wait for me to ask Chu Wenzheng. ”
Belch...... The corners of Little Lady Qiao's mouth twitched: "County Lord, do you think he will be honest with you?"
"Why don't you say it, could it be that he can still control me with Gu and let me marry him obediently?"
Little Lady Qiao was suddenly speechless.
A few days later, Chu Wenzheng really came to Ah Bao with a set of Miao costumes. "County Lord, this is the clothes and jewelry that I specially ordered someone to make for you to wear for our Miao Village women, you can wear them and try them on!"
Ah Bao looked at the clothes: "These styles don't seem to be quite the same as those worn by other Miao village women." ”
"You found out all this?" Chu Wenzheng said with a smile, "That's right, this set is actually the clothes worn by the women of Miao Village when they get married." Your clothes are also specially decorated with a phoenix pattern, which is a privilege that only the ladies of the lord's family can have, and how many little ladies can't ask for it in their lifetime!"
"I didn't ask for it. "Bao Dao.
"Of course, I know that you are not uncommon to you, County Lord. But don't you really think that we are a natural couple? When I was in Chang'an, I said that we have the same background and the same pursuit, and we have gotten along very well for nearly a year, don't you think that after we get married, we will love each other as before, and love each other until we grow old?" Chu Wenzheng guided her step by step.
"I don't think so. Bao shook his head steadily.
Even if he knew that she had such a cold and hard temperament, but she rejected it again, Chu Wenzheng's face was still very ugly...... No, it should be said that after returning to his own territory, his face when he was rejected was more than a hundred times more ugly than when he was in Chang'an.
When he was choked back by Ah Bao, he just laughed at himself, and quickly found a topic to reveal the matter. But this time, he sneered and said, "County Lord, you don't have any thoughts about the affairs of men and women, but I am not. When I first saw you in the Peony Building in Chang'an, I knew that you were the person I was looking for in my life, and only you could breed the most powerful Gu Master in Miao Village with me. ”
As he spoke, he couldn't help but wink at her: "The most powerful Gu Master, aren't you excited?"
Po still shook his head.
Chu Wenzheng's eyes turned cold. "Isn't it, you really want to wait until that Gu man of yours is cured, and then grow old with him, right?"
"Why not? I look at him more than you do. "Bao Dao.
"But he can't!" Chu Wenzheng said, "Could it be that you plan to stay a widow for the rest of your life?"
"Can't you?" Po still looked calm.
Chu Wenzheng paused, then smiled again: "Yes, of course." But the county lord, since you have no intention of affection for men and women, then why do you refuse to consider me? Reasoning, I am better than my surname Qiao in every way, and you are obviously much happier when you are with me. Wouldn't it be nice for me to keep you happy for the rest of your life as long as you want?"
"No, you have bad intentions. "Bao Dao.
"Hahaha! I have bad intentions, is he good at heart? He doesn't want to get you!" Chu Wenzheng laughed loudly, and suddenly put away his smile again, "He is a Gu person, to put it bluntly, he is a puppet in the hands of a Gu master, and he actually has the courage to think about Gu Master? In our Miao Village, if any Gu person dares to give birth to such a mind, he will suffer the punishment of ten thousand insects devouring his heart!"
"He is not a Gu man in Miao Village. "Bao Dao.
"I know, of course I know, so didn't I keep touching him?" Chu Wenzheng said with a smile.
"No," Po shook his head, "it's not because you didn't touch him. ”
"The county lord is really smart!Actually, you noticed it from the beginning, didn't you?" Chu Wenzheng clapped his hands and laughed, "Qiao Yan, this Gu person, is really the best in the world. Thinking of my father and me, we searched all over the world, but we couldn't find anything as good as him. Over the years, we have also raised a lot of Gu people, but they all died after a few casual tosses. But he, I tried my best to toss him for half a year, and he is still alive and well! Even my father said that he is a rare Gu person in the world. With him alone, he can be worth more than a hundred ordinary Gu people! Of course, this is all thanks to the county lord, you have trained well, and your ten years have been worth it! With this Gu person as a dowry, you don't have to look up at people in my house in the future, it doesn't matter if it's my father!"
"It turns out that you tried to lure me over, and the purpose was him. "Po bowed.
"Actually, at first, I really just wanted you to be the county lord. But in the past six months, you and he have given me a lot of surprises. Such a useful Gu person, don't do it in vain! Anyway, he has always been loyal to the county lord, so we will simply take him in! In this way, it can be regarded as fulfilling his loyalty to you, isn't it?" Chu Wenzheng was full of words.
Po chuckled: "You planned everything so well. But have you ever asked me and his opinion?"
"If it was in Chang'an, I would definitely ask for your opinion. But now, we're on my turf. Here, everything is up to me and my father, does your opinion matter? I'm here today just to tell you the news. Chu Wenzheng's attitude suddenly became arrogant.
"That's right!" Po nodded, as if he understood what he meant.
Seeing that she had no intention of resisting, Chu Wenzheng raised a light smile again: "Don't worry, county lord, I spent half a year with you, and I tried my best to bring you back, which is enough to show my sincerity." As long as you two are obedient, I can guarantee that your life here is no worse than that of Chang'an. When you become my wife, I can also give you access to the deeper and more ancient Gu techniques of our Qiuyun Village, so that your Gu skills can be improved day by day!"
"What about Qiao Yan?" asked Po.
"He, now that my father is interested in him, the county lord, let him follow my father first! Anyway, when my father dies, he will be able to come back again." If you really want another Gu man, I can find it for you. I believe that with your ability, it will definitely not be difficult for you to slowly raise someone who will not lose to him. Chu Wenzheng said with a smile.
"In other words, he can't go back to me now?" Po was upset.
"That's right!" Chu Wenzheng fixed his head.
"Then there's no need to talk about this family business. Po turned his head.
Chu Wenzheng's face sank again. "The county lord is planning to fight against our entire Qiuyun Village for the sake of such a Gu man?"
"He's my Gu man. Po insisted.
"But now that people are in Qiuyun Village, then everything is under the control of my father. My dad wants him, that's his honor, and you can't resist!"
"Then we don't have much more to say. Po said coldly.
Chu Wenzheng chuckled twice. "I know you're not happy, county lord. In Chang'an, you are also a person who can call the wind and rain, and I have followed your rules. But now that you're here, shouldn't you follow our rules, and you should have expected anything bad to happen before you came. ”
"I know, and I don't regret being here. "Bao Dao.
"Okay! With your words, I will be relieved!" Chu Wenzheng immediately nodded, "You can put on this clothes first, and if it is not suitable, ask someone to change it." Two months later, it was the annual village building festival in our village, and Daddy had decided to hold a wedding for us on that day. When the time comes, you will definitely be the most beautiful bride in the history of our Qiuyunzhai. ”
With that, he put down his clothes and turned to leave.
Waiting for Chu Wenzheng to leave, Little Lady Qiao hurriedly ran in. "County Lord, you saw it, he really dared!"
"Why didn't he dare? When we first met, didn't he already express his purpose clearly?"
Seeing that her expression was still so flat, Little Lady Qiao felt that her internal organs were burning: "County Lord, do you really plan to stay here and be their little lord's wife?"
"No, it won't. Po shook his head.
"Then let's find a way to escape!" said the little lady Qiao quickly.
"Do you think they're going to be unguarded against us?" Po asked.
"If they take precautions, can't we take countermeasures?" said Little Lady Qiao in a muffled voice.
"It's just a few of us, and now they really can't help it. Po shook his head.
Of course she knew this fact. It's just that Little Lady Qiao finally has a little hope. But now that Ah Bao took the initiative to say this, she was like a balloon that had been punctured, and with a pop all her breath was discharged.
"Are we at their mercy?" she sat down on the floor in despair.
"Not necessarily. Po shook his head.
"What else can we do?"
"Look at the sky. Po pointed to the top of his head.
That's not what it means to be at the mercy of others! Little Lady Qiao screamed in her heart, and hung her head helplessly.
Two months passed quickly.
These days, Chu Xiong really regarded Qiao Yan as his private belongings, kept them by his side all the time, fed him all kinds of Gu worms, and observed his body's reactions. Father was busy researching this newcomer, and everything in the village was handed over to Chu Wenzheng to do. He was busy cleaning up the affairs of the house, and at the same time, he was also preparing for marriage, and he was very busy. But even when he is busy, he always has a smile on his face, which shows that he is in a very good mood.
The people in the village didn't know if it was for the upcoming Jianzhai Festival or the big wedding of the little lord, and they were all elated.
Only Po, she is still concentrating on those little bugs, as if it is none of her business. Little Lady Qiao whispered in her ear, and called and called, but it was still useless. In the end, she could only lie beside Po and watch her deal with those bugs.
Anyway, she was going to die, and she suddenly felt that those white and chubby little bugs were not so scary. Maybe they'll be her companions when she's buried in the earth!" she thought to herself, grinning at the bugs.
"That's it!"
At this time, I suddenly heard a low cry from Bao, and the little lady Qiao was so frightened that she jumped up quickly.
"What did you say, county lord?"
"My Gu worm has finally been practiced!" Ah Bao said with a smile, "Qiuyunzhai is in the middle of the mountains, gathering the aura of heaven and earth, and raising insects in one day is worth more than a month in Chang'an." Although it has only been a few months, the growth of these Gu worms is very good, and they have completely matured by now!"
As she spoke, she also smiled and showed the fruits of her labor to Mrs. Qiao.
The little glimmer of hope that was so easy to rise in the heart of the little lady Qiao was extinguished by a basin of cold water in front of her.
"My county lord, you're going to marry Chu Wenzheng tonight, but you still have the heart to study these bugs?"
"Why should I not have one?" Po only asked.
"I ......" Little Lady Qiao opened her mouth, but finally closed it helplessly.
She found that she and Po had nothing to talk about.
While the two were talking, they saw the Miaozhai woman who had served Ah Bao these days walking in.
"County Lord, the auspicious time is coming, please change into your wedding dress and follow us to the front to salute!"
"Oh. Po nodded, then got up and let them dress her up.
This unique wedding dress, as well as the tiara, have been modified countless times these days, and now fit her figure and bearing perfectly. When Ah Bao finished dressing, Little Lady Qiao couldn't help but sigh: "County Lord, you look so good in this wedding dress!"
It's a pity that she didn't marry her brother.
"Yes? It's heavy. Po frowned.
When Little Lady Qiao heard this, she burst out laughing. This county lord, at this time, is still complaining about this, and there is no one left. But it can be seen that she doesn't like this family business very much in her heart! In this way, she can still feel a little better in her heart.
Just pity her brother...... Ay!
At this time, a Miao girl came to Little Lady Qiao's side: "Little Lady Qiao, the little lord ordered us to lead you to the back to sit down first." It's getting late, and it's time for you to rest. ”
Are they trying to drive her away?
Little Lady Qiao was shocked. "I'm not leaving!"
It's just that now it's not like she can't leave if she doesn't want to. After the Miao girl finished speaking, she directly grabbed her and began to drag her out. That posture didn't allow her to refuse at all.
Little Lady Qiao was angry, and suddenly took out the silver needle hidden in her sleeve and stabbed it at Miao Nu.
"You carry this thing with you, and it might come in handy in an emergency. I still remember what Ah Xuan said to her when she gave her a small needle bag on the day she left Chang'an.
In fact, in Chang'an for more than half a year, she and A Xuan got along well. After being a miracle doctor lady, these little ladies naturally have some medical skills. After staying with them for a long time, she has learned a little bit along with them. She especially likes acupuncture, and Ah Xuan specially taught her a lot, and gave her this before parting.
These days, she has been hiding needles to prevent insects, but she didn't expect that the first time she used needles in such a long time, she actually came to prick people!
The Miao girl was stabbed at the acupuncture point, and immediately let go of her hand and fell to the ground with a bang.
When the other people heard the voice, they hurriedly turned around, and they saw that the little lady Qiao was trembling. She quickly pulled out more needles: "Don't come here!
But when those people heard this, they all began to walk towards her.
"Hey!"
At this time, he heard a helpless sigh, which came from Ah Bao's mouth.
She waved her sleeves casually, and she heard a few plopping sounds, and these Miao girls fell to the ground one after another.
This efficiency is many times higher than her.
Little Lady Qiao's eyes widened in surprise: "County Lord, you are ......"
Ah Bao walked over, casually took a silver needle from her hand, and stabbed it into the neck of the Miao girl who was put down by her. It wasn't until the silver needle was completely submerged in her neck that she looked up and said, "When do you have to pierce like you one by one?"
She was despised again. Little Lady Qiao thought depressedly.
However, she immediately became excited again: "It turns out that the county lord is planning to escape the marriage today? Then why didn't you say it earlier? You told me earlier, we can prepare together!"
"I didn't plan to do it so early. Bao said, "But it's okay now, start early and finish it early." ”
After that, she took the hand of the little lady Qiao, and the two walked out of the bamboo building together.
Today is the annual big day in Qiuyun Village, and everyone is very busy, so there are not many people assigned to Ah Bao's courtyard today. walked out all the way, although he met a few more people, but before they could get closer, Po had already taken the first step to put them down.
What a trick!
Obediently following behind Bao, Little Lady Qiao took this scene into her eyes, and her eyes sparkled. Compared with the county lord, she really felt that the little trick she had just now was unsightly, no wonder the county lord would say this about her! Moreover, even if she really wanted to leave, it didn't make a difference if Ah Bao told her in advance or not, right? By following him, if she didn't make trouble for him, she was already helping.
Hey, she's better not to talk in the future.
The two of them went all the way unimpeded, and when they got out of the bamboo building, Qiao Xiaoniang originally thought that they were going to face thousands of troops and horses in Miao Village, but who would have thought that what came to them was quiet.
It was so quiet everywhere that it seemed that not even a figure could be seen.
The surroundings were too quiet, too unusually quiet, and Little Lady Qiao was so frightened that she hurriedly hid behind Ah Bao: "County Lord, do you think they are brewing some big conspiracy?"
"You're thinking too much. Po said lightly.
She didn't. This place she has always felt is evil, and it is not much better now. And now they are in such a nervous situation!
Just as she was thinking, she suddenly heard a sound of footsteps, and she hurriedly grabbed Po's sleeve.
"County Lord!"
But soon, a cry full of joy came into her ears, and the little lady Qiao listened to it and found that this voice was so similar to her brother's?
Quickly raised her head, but she didn't expect that the person who came was really her brother!
Seeing the oncoming Qiao Yan, the corners of Bao's lips were slightly hooked.
"Is it all done?" she asked.
Qiao Yan bowed. "That's it. ”
"Alright, let's go!"
"Good. ”
After a few brief exchanges, the two of them turned around together and walked towards the outside of the stockade.
Little lady Qiao is like falling into the clouds. "County Lord, Brother, what the hell is going on? Brother, why did you come out? Didn't they say that their lord watched you very closely and wouldn't let you go out?"
"I poisoned the only well in their village. Qiao Yan said.
"Huh?" Miss Qiao was stunned.
Qiao Yan looked at Ah Bao again and smiled lightly: "Thanks to the old princess's careful teaching over the years, her hard work has not been in vain. ”
"It's also that you learn well. A-Niang has long said that she is not proficient in poison arts, and it is up to you to study what you have today. Po said lightly.
"But no matter what, if there was no county lord and no old princess, I wouldn't be where I am today. We wouldn't be so easy to leave today. Qiao Yan said with a smile.
"That's right. Po nodded.
While following them out, while listening to the conversation between the two of them, Little Lady Qiao can be regarded as sorting things out. Then, she finally reacted: "Don't tell me, you have premeditated this matter!"
"Why not?" asked Po rhetorically.
"Yes!" Qiao Yan also said with a smile, "They can plan against us, why can't we be like this?" Didn't the county lord say a long time ago, everyone takes what they need, and no one should look down on anyone." ”
Uh, that's what that means, and she didn't think about it in the long run, right?
Little Lady Qiao felt that her IQ had received a deep blow again. This time the blow was deeper and heavier than before, so heavy that she could barely lift her head.
Why didn't she think of it? Why did Chu Wenzheng invite him, and the county lord readily agreed? Why did the old princess and the others let them go so easily? Why did Chu Wenzheng and his group act so boldly and presumptuously here, but the elder brother and the county lord were not in a hurry or slow, only they were so anxious to jump their feet all day long? That was obviously because they had already made up their minds!
It's just that I'm stupid, I don't think about it at all, and I'm in a hurry all day long. Looking back now, she found that she was completely making a fool of herself! The county lord had always endured herself, if it was her, she would have already slapped herself to death!
Now, Little Lady Qiao is completely convinced.
She obediently followed behind Qiao Yan and Ah Bao, and the three of them walked out together.
It's just that when they arrived at the exit of the house, they saw a team of people again-it was Chu Wenzheng.
He took more than a dozen Miao men, and the group blocked the way out. Chu Wenzheng's eyes were red, and he looked coldly at Ah Bao and Qiao Yan who came over, and a trace of murderous intent appeared in his eyes: "Do you want to run? Do you think you can still run if you do such a thing in our village?"
"Brother, why are they here, why is he okay?" Seeing this group of people, Little Lady Qiao was shocked again.
"Among so many people, don't you allow a few smart people to be in the family?" Qiao Yan said in a low voice.
Moreover, Chu Wenzheng has been walking outside all these years, and his mind is naturally more flexible than the people in the village. It's understandable that he'll be wary of them.
When Chu Wenzheng heard this, he sneered: "Qiao Langjun, you really opened my eyes! It turns out that I still underestimated you!"
"If you dare to stop us here, soon I will take your understanding of me to a new level. Qiao Yan said with a smile.
Chu Wenzheng's heart sank suddenly, and then he heard Qiao Yan say again: "I have been with the county lord all these years, and I haven't learned anything else, but I have studied some ways to use poison. These days you've been trying your hand at it in your stockade, and you should have seen the results by now. But fortunately, everyone is very enthusiastic about us these days, and the Great Lord has also paid a lot of attention to me, and I still receive everyone's affection. So, now the medicine I gave is not too heavy, and although it makes everyone fall asleep now, as long as they take the medicine within three days, everyone can wake up safely. But if you don't give them an antidote......"
"Where's the antidote, take it out for me!" Chu Wenzheng said immediately.
"Let us out, and we will give you the antidote. Qiao Yan said with a smile.
"Are you stupid for me? Let you go, my efforts over the past year will be in vain!" Chu Wenzheng shouted.
Qiao Yan spread his hands. "Then you can also try, trapping the three of us, but sacrificing everyone in your village except for these ten or so. Then, your house was destroyed, do you think that you alone can withstand the attack of other stockades? If you want to build another stockade like now, how long will it take? In order to keep us, but let the efforts of your ancestors for generations be in vain, if Brother Chu, you think this deal is cost-effective enough, then you can just do it. ”
This Brother Chu shouted really ironically.
Chu Wenzheng's forehead popped out one after another, and many green tendons jumped out one after another. "Qiao Yan, you are so despicable!"
"Each other, each other. We are just treating others the way we do. Qiao Yan smiled and arched his hand, "How is it, Brother Chu now, have you made a decision?"
Chu Wenzheng grinded his teeth with hatred. However, in the end, he still took the initiative to step aside: "You guys go!"
"Thank you. ”
Qiao Yan thanked him respectfully, then turned around and pulled Ah Bao with one hand, and then pulled Qiao Xiaoniang with the other: "Go, go home!"
"Hmm. Po nodded.
Little Lady Qiao was also instantly overjoyed, and hurriedly jumped up and down to keep up.
The three of them walked in front, and Chu Wenzheng chased after the warriors in Qiuyun Village.
After waiting down the mountain, seeing another mansion in sight, Chu Wenzheng asked coldly, "Now, can you give me the antidote?"
"Okay!" Qiao Yan said with a smile, and took out a small porcelain bottle and threw it over, "The medicine in this bottle is melted in the well and fed to everyone." Feed them three times in a row, and they will definitely not have another accident in a year. ”
"One year?" Chu Wenzheng's face sank again, "What about after that year?"
"In a year's time, if you go to Chang'an City to see us again, I will give you the last antidote. Qiao Yan was still smiling, "It's not out of your Miao Village's sphere of influence yet, I don't dare to get rid of your poison right now." Otherwise, what if you kill us again and capture us again?"
"You're careful enough!" Chu Wenzheng said through gritted teeth.
"There's no way, be careful to sail the 10,000-year-old ship!" Qiao Yan said with a smile.
Chu Wenzheng really hated to pick up a knife and cut him into a puddle of meat sauce!
Moreover, the fact that he had actually fallen for this Gu man that he had never seen directly made him very angry. Especially, now he is still embarrassed in front of so many people, and he almost lost the entire village!
He is too big to plant, which will be the biggest stain on his whole life!
However, now he still has to carry this stain on his back, and watch this person Gu fly away with his wife who he easily deceived back!
"Qiao Yan, you win this time. But next time, you won't be so lucky!What you owe me, I'll let you give me back all the money!" He stared at Qiao Yan viciously, almost squeezing out the words between his teeth.
"I'm afraid you won't have this opportunity in the future!" Qiao Yan smiled lightly and glanced back at Ah Bao, "The county lord will protect me." ”
Po nodded. "Yes. ”
From the beginning to the present, Po has stood quietly by his side, letting him dominate everything. Now he is like a weak little woman, and let him hold his hand! For more than a year, he has tried his best to get close to her, make her happy, hold everything he knows to her, and even bring her to see this good place where she can develop Gu art in depth, and she will give herself a few smiles at most, but she has never let him touch a finger of her!
Sure enough, in her heart, she just can't compare to this Gu person, right?
Chu Wenzheng took a deep breath: "County Lord, since you are leaving, can you answer me honestly?"
"You say. "Po bowed.
"If it weren't for him, would you consider staying in the stockade with me?"
"No, it won't. ”
Such a categorical refusal once again tore Chu Wenzheng's already bloodied heart into pieces.
"I see, I see. He nodded, then turned away, "Let's go!"
"Little Lord, are we really going to let them go like this?" Walking to a distance of about a hundred paces, a warrior couldn't help but whisper.
"As long as they can get out of this mountain, God is going to set them free. But if they can't go out and come back to beg us......" Chu Wenzheng sneered, "Then it's up to them to decide!"
The warrior immediately understood, and quickly nodded: "Little Lord, you are very right!
