Chapter 100: Calculation

The sudden change seemed to make the night even longer.

Whether it was the people of the Wang family led by Wang Tianyue, or the disciples of the Golden Handle Daozhuang led by Ye Xiu, they didn't know that in a Tianzi room of the inn where they were, there were two pairs of eyes, quietly watching their every move.

"Boss, now it seems that things have become simpler, that kid really has some means, which can be regarded as a great favor for us, since Qin Xuan has been bound, it is better for us to take this opportunity ......"

In the room, two beardless men sat opposite each other, and one of them, a man dressed as a scholar, was talking while flipping over two golden and smooth Dazhou Tongbao, and after speaking, his five fingers were put together, and he made a gesture of cutting his neck with a knife.

Opposite the scholar, there sat a scholar dressed in a Confucian shirt, wearing a scribe's scarf, about thirty years old, looking like a scholar, but if you look closely, you will find that this person is not gentle and elegant at all, but is full of a bottomless gloomy atmosphere.

The scholar took a sip of tea, nodded, and said in a low voice: "Yes, that kid did help us unintentionally, hehe, it's easy to do this way, but it's better not to do it easily, my father-in-law said that we must do it without a trace, and I can't let anyone find out about the head of the celebrant afterwards, I have never seen my father-in-law so worried about the revelation of things, so it can be seen that Qin Xuan's identity is definitely not ordinary." ”

"However, before I came, I checked the files in our intelligence network, Qin Xuan is only from the market, he is the son of a man in the market, what identity can he have?"

When the scholar said this, his voice was even lowered, "I guess the master is so cautious, it's all because of Qin Xuan's brother, I met that person once, called Mu Linchun, young but scheming, far from Qin Xuan's comparison; ”

If Qin Xuan was here, he would definitely recognize that the scholar who spoke was the scholar An Xiaoliu who rushed to Dongxuan with Mu to find medicine, and when he first met Ye Feifei in Longwei River, the other party followed him.

This person is the righteous son An Deshun of the great eunuch who is in charge of the celebrant seal, and because he is ranked sixth, An Xiaoliu is not a fake name.

And sitting opposite An Deshun was Song Daofu, the head of the nine righteous sons who flowed eastward.

When Xiang Dongliu traveled away from Beijing with King Ye, An Deshun followed him, and many matters of the celebrant were handled by Song Daofu, and his transcendent status in the palace can be imagined.

"Mu Linchun, I've heard of it, it is said that he is the young master of the Red Lotus Sword Sect, but this person is a waste who can't practice martial arts, since King Ye wants to use him, it means that this person has some ability. ”

Song Daofu said this, smiled, and continued: "This also makes sense, if you can't practice martial arts, then you can only read, read a lot of books, and if you are smart enough, you will naturally be able to have a strategic mind." King Ye took a fancy to Mu Linchun's future and was bound to be limitless, thinking that his father-in-law didn't want Mu Linchun to know that his brother's death was related to the celebrant eunuch, so he made enemies in the court. ”

When Song Daofu said this, he paused, pulled the corners of his mouth and said: "In this way, the father-in-law also attaches great importance to Mu Linchun, otherwise why would he be so troublesome, but I don't know how this Qin Xuan offended the father-in-law." ”

An Deshun didn't know about this either, so he had to shake his head.

"Qin Xuan is naturally going to kill, but it's better for us not to do it ourselves, wait and see what happens, and in three or four days, we can reach Luoyang, before that, if Qin Xuan is not dead, then we might as well add some more heat." ”

An Deshun nodded, although he was faintly unconvinced in his heart about Song Daofu, he never dared to show it, and he was still quite jealous of him, so no matter what Song Daofu said, he was also submissive and pretended to be very obedient.

Song Daofu picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea gently, it seemed that the clouds were light and light, but he was secretly calculating in his heart, he just asked casually, in fact, it was intentional, he wanted to see what An Deshun still knew, but at present, An Deshun didn't seem to know Qin Xuan's specific life experience.

At this moment, a meaningful smile suddenly appeared on Song Daofu's face.

In the early morning of the day, Ye Xiu and his party left the inn and set off again.

Qin Xuan was tied up and thrown into a carriage, where he was guarded by two disciples of the Golden Handle Dao Village.

Qin Xuan's body curled up in the carriage, after he was poisoned and tied up last night, he had been feeling the changes in his body, only to feel the qi and blood in his body churning, and the pain was unbearable, as if there was a flame swimming around him, burning his seven tendons and eight veins, making his internal force condensed in the sea of dantian qi unable to function normally.

But fortunately, the flame was not always strong, after a few hours of streaming, it seemed to be much weaker, and at this moment, Qin Xuan could feel that the hands tied behind him could actually move.

Qin Xuan pretended to be extremely difficult and turned over, and said weakly to the disciple of the golden-handled knife village in the carriage: "This big brother, can you give me a stutter?"

The carriage was bumpy, and the disciple didn't sleep well because of what happened last night, and was napping there, when he was suddenly woken up by Qin Xuan at this moment, revealing a look of disgust.

"Wang Sanshi brought you food just now, you didn't open your mouth, now you know that you are hungry? Hmph, bear it, let's wait until noon, if you don't eat a meal, you won't die of hunger." After saying that, he continued to take a nap.

Qin Xuan was helpless, no longer silent, silently thinking about some things, when he set off, he vaguely remembered that Wang Sanshi seemed to have come to bring him food, but at that time, he was fighting against the poisonous fire in his body wholeheartedly, and he couldn't be distracted at all.

What Qin Xuan was about to eat was actually trying to break the person in front of him, because in his sleeve, there was a bottle of elixir hidden from his father, which was made by his father Qin Zhiguan himself, and it was said to be able to detoxify all poisons, but now that he was tied with ropes all over his body, he naturally couldn't put the elixir in his mouth.

However, Qin Xuan was not too anxious, there was always a chance, Dad's bottle of elixir was his last hope, if he couldn't take it smoothly, then what was waiting for him might really be death.

After the carriage traveled for more than an hour, the big man who guarded him switched places with the disciple who was driving the carriage.

The previous disciple who drove the car was named Huang Lao Er, who had thief eyebrows and rat eyes, and as soon as he entered the carriage, he looked at Qin Xuan with malicious intentions.

"Boy, looking at your dress, you don't look like a poor ghost, you should still have silver on you, right?"

After Huang Lao Er finished speaking, he reached out to Qin Xuan's chest and waist to touch it, Qin Xuan hurriedly and honestly explained, he still had a dozen taels of silver in his arms, but the rope was tied tightly, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to take it out, otherwise I would loosen the tie and you would take it again, anyway, I was already highly poisoned and couldn't move.

Huang Lao Er sneered, still searching Qin Xuan's chest, and sure enough, he felt something bulging.

Huang Lao Er was overjoyed, but he didn't let Qin Xuan go, but pulled out a short knife, cut through Qin Xuan's clothes, and pulled out the money bag hidden inside.

After counting the points, there were more than twenty taels of silver, which was a huge amount of money for an ordinary disciple of the Golden Handle Sword Village.

After rejoicing for a while, Huang Lao Er put the silver into his arms, and suddenly his face turned cold, and he knocked the short knife in his hand on Qin Xuan's face a few times.

"You kid is not sincere, it is clear that there are twenty-five taels of silver, but you say that it is only more than ten taels, hmph! I see that you are a treacherous person!" As he spoke, Huang Lao Er continued to search Qin Xuan's body again.

Qin Xuan couldn't use his internal force, so naturally he couldn't break the rope, in order to prevent Huang Lao Er from detecting that his hands and feet could move, he had to obediently let him search his body, hoping that this guy would not find the bottle of pill hidden in his sleeve.

But the house leak happened to rain overnight, and Huang Lao Er quickly touched the thing hidden in Qin Xuan's sleeve, and a smile appeared on his face, and he cut Qin Xuan's clothes again and took out the bottle of elixir.

Qin Xuan fell into despair.

Huang Lao Er was also a little disappointed, "Boy, what's in here?"

Although this bottle of elixir is very valuable, because there is no name written on the bottle, Huang Lao Er does not know what is inside, and can only preliminarily judge that it is a bottle of medicine.

When encountering a problem that could not be solved, Qin Xuan couldn't help but think: If it was wood that encountered the same problem, what would he do?

After being silent for a while, Qin Xuan's aura flashed, and there was a hint of mystery in his tone, "This is a good thing, it's not a secret, this is a bottle of poison that I bought at a great price specifically to torture people, called the Thousand Ants and Ten Thousand Insects Pill, after taking this pill, although it will not die, it will be tortured, and it will be poisoned every other hour, and every time it attacks, it is like thousands of ants and poisonous insects gnawing in the body, making people unable to survive and die." ”

When Huang Lao Er heard this, he suddenly shuddered, and almost didn't throw the bottle on the ground, but after thinking about it, this is indeed a good thing, and when he returned to Luoyang City, he took this bottle of medicine and sold it, maybe he could exchange it for a lot of silver, or give it to the owner in private, maybe it was also a great achievement.

So, Huang Lao Er still put the bottle of pill into a cloth bag around his waist.

Qin Xuan smiled: "Such a good thing is given to you, can you pay me back half of the silver just now?"

When Huang Lao Er heard this, his originally happy face immediately turned cold, "Hmph, you are all about to die, what do you want silver?" Senior Brother has signaled, let me serve you well along the way, since I have just received so many benefits from you, I will not embarrass you for the time being, you better be honest with me!"

"How do you know I'm going to die?" Qin Xuan looked nervous.

"Hehe, you killed the second owner, do you think you can still live?"

Qin Xuan was a little sluggish, his face was full of despair, and then he suppressed his voice and said angrily: "Bastard, you don't have a good thing in the Golden Handle Dao Village, your master deserves to die, looking at your face, you must also be a short-lived ghost!"

Qin Xuan's voice was not loud, but the scolding was extremely ugly, Huang Lao Er was bloody, he was furious, he stepped on Qin Xuan's chest, and punched him in the stomach.

Qin Xuan bared his teeth in pain, but he still scolded in a low voice.

Originally, Huang Lao Er got benefits from Qin Xuan and planned not to embarrass him, but Qin Xuan's abuse made Huang Lao Er very angry, and he wanted to slaughter Qin Xuan with a knife.

But the senior brother didn't give orders, and he didn't dare to commit suicide privately.

Huang Lao Er was afraid that he would be too heavy and accidentally beat Qin Xuan to death, so he planned to gamble his mouth and beat him up, but then he seemed to remember something, and took out the bottle of "poison" that was scavenged from Qin Xuan's body from the cloth bag on his waist.

Huang Lao Er shook the bottle of medicine in front of Qin Xuan's eyes, and looked at the other party with a malicious look.

"What do you want to do, don't mess around!" Qin Xuan immediately stopped scolding, revealing unprecedented despair and fear.

Huang Lao Er poured out a pill from the bottle, pinched it in his hand, and sneered: "Keep scolding, why don't you scold?"

Qin Xuan's face was shocked, and he closed his mouth tightly.

Huang Lao Er only felt a surge of happiness in his heart, and then grabbed Qin Xuan's face, pinched his mouth open, and poured the torturous "poison" down.

This young man, who was born in the market but has the dream of a hero in the rivers and lakes, really felt for the first time what the rivers and lakes are sinister.
