Chapter 44: Infernal Affairs
Only then did He Qianshan react, he was stunned for a moment, and his head was planted from the carriage, his face just turned sideways, towards the place where the pot was cooking.
It was quiet for a while, with the occasional sound of the wind blowing the leaves and horses' hooves scraping against the ground.
After waiting for a moment, He Qianshan seemed to hear the movement of someone getting up, squinted half of his eyes and looked, and sure enough, someone got up.
It was a man in his thirties and forties, of medium stature, of ordinary appearance, of the kind of person who was completely featureless and inconspicuous in appearance, and did not say or do much on weekdays, and had no sense of existence.
He Qianshan also saw him at this time, and only then did he recall that he was the one in charge of making soup, and heard others call him Sun Laojiu!
Sun Laojiu first turned around, checked one by one, slapped this one's mouth, and kicked that one's ass.
He slapped his mouth and kicked He Qianshan's buttocks, but fortunately, he just opened the curtain and looked at the two girls and shouted twice, otherwise if he wanted to touch the girls' bodies, it would be strange if He Qianshan immediately jumped up and beat him!
After making sure that everyone had been drugged, Sun Laojiu blew three whistles in the direction of the way he came, and after a while, two horsemen flew over from the car.
Immediately, the two of them got off the horse and walked in front of Sun Laojiu, and the three of them bowed their hands together, Sun Laojiu pointed to Shao Lei, and then pointed to the carriage.
"Tie up Shao Lei and the woman in pink clothes in the carriage and bring them back, don't miss anything!"
The two of them were stunned, their eyes full of surprise, embarrassment, and overwhelm!
Seeing that the two of them didn't move, Sun Laojiu hurriedly said, "Hurry, what are you doing in a daze?"
The two of them snorted at him, only to find that the two were staring behind him, and he hurriedly turned around and looked, startled!
The ugly-looking and tall Zhao family descendant "Zhao Wu" stood behind him at some point!
Sun Laojiu hurriedly took two steps back and shouted, "What are you going to do?"
He Qianshan said: "I should ask you this!"
Sun Laojiu settled down.
"Zhao Wu, I saw you drink soup, how can you be okay?"
He Qianshan was thinking about this question just now, and there was only one possibility after thinking about it, that is, in his arms, the beads taken from the eyes of the mountain wind, because Xiongfeng said that it was a treasure to ward off evil and prevent drugs!
However, of course, He Qianshan didn't need to explain these things to him, he just stretched out his hand to him and said, "I don't know what you want to do, and I don't want to know!"
Sun Laojiu pulled out a dagger from his waist with a "whoosh", and sneered "hehe".
"I didn't want to kill you, isn't it good for you to lie down obediently? Now I have to kill you! Don't blame me, if you want to blame, blame yourself for your troubles!"
After he finished speaking, he rushed towards He Qianshan.
When the two accomplices saw it, they also unsheathed their waist knives, and were about to step forward to close the circle, but suddenly there was a flower in front of them, and Sun Laojiu, who was the first to rush over, disappeared in an instant......
When they looked for it again, they found that Sun Laojiu was actually lifted upside down by the "Zhao Wu", but his whole face was pestled into the mud, and the dagger had been thrown far aside......
Sun Laojiu desperately propped up his two hands on the ground and tried his best to struggle his face out, but he looked so weak under He Qianshan's divine power!
The two accomplices looked at each other and didn't dare to step forward, not because they were afraid that they would come forward, "Zhao Wu" would be unfavorable to Sun Laojiu, but they had made an accurate judgment on the situation in front of them: they couldn't beat it!
At this time, He Qianshan spoke: "Sun Laojiu, if you are willing to hand over the antidote, clap your hands!"
Before the words fell, Sun Laojiu applauded as if he was watching a play and saw the highlights, and he clapped his two hands without stopping!
He Qianshan raised his arms slightly, letting Sun Laojiu's face leave the ground.
Sun Laojiu coughed and spit out the mud that he had sucked in his nose, choking his face with tears, and the tears mixed with the mud on his face, becoming dirty, it was not as clean as his buttocks!
But this Sun Laojiu didn't know each other yet, and as soon as he could speak, he shouted: "You two are still standing and watching the play, come and save me!"
The two accomplices glanced at each other again, and once again formed a three-word consensus: We withdraw!
So the two of them flew on their horses, shook their reins, and went away without looking back......
In order to let Sun Laojiu see more clearly, He Qianshan also deliberately reversed the direction of Sun Laojiu's body, so that he could face the back of his accomplice.
Sun Laojiu, who was carried by He Qianshan like a dead fish, shed tears again, but this time it was not choked, but sad tears from the bottom of his heart!
But he was still decisive, wiped his tears, took out a snuffbox from his left cuff with his right hand and handed it to He Qianshan.
"Give them a sniff and you'll wake up in a moment!"
He Qianshan opened the lid of the pot and smelled it, the smell was spicy and pungent, but it was cool and refreshing when it entered the lungs, not like a fake.
He picked out some variegated powder from the inside and asked Sun Laojiu to put it in his mouth, but he didn't see anything abnormal.
I thought that although this guy also ate the same rice soup, he hid the antidote in his cuffs in time and kept smelling it, so that he was not affected by the medicine.
"If you lie to me, you will not be spared!"
He Qianshan kicked Sun Laojiu's waist acupoint, threw him aside, and then naturally went to the carriage to wake up the two girls.
The antidote is really the medicine to get rid of the disease, and Zhao Duxue and Fu Mingyue woke up quickly after smelling it.
He Qianshan was not in a hurry to wake up the others, and told the two girls what he had just seen, and the first reaction of the two girls was: "Why are you okay?"
He took out the two snake beads from his bosom and said that it should be the work of this thing!
Zhao Duxue and Fu Mingyue are both from rich backgrounds, and they have seen a lot of gold beads and night pearls, but they have never seen such magical pearls.
He Qianshan was afraid of frightening them, so he only said that he had obtained it by chance in Yushan, and gave them two beads one by one.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Duxue and Fu Mingyue took the beads, and almost at the same time stuffed them back to He Qianshan, and even the words they said were exactly the same: "I don't need it, you keep this one for yourself!"
After speaking, they glanced at each other, and then turned their heads, the atmosphere was quite awkward!
He Qianshan didn't know why, so he only insisted on giving them the beads, and said to Fu Mingyue: "What started was the fine work that infiltrated Liuyun Castle, and this matter must be coming to Liuyun Castle, so it's not strange to tie Shao Lei up, but why do you want to tie you up too?"
Fu Mingyue couldn't think of a reason for a while, He Qianshan proposed to interrogate Sun Laojiu, but Zhao Duxue thought it was inappropriate, saying that when Shao Lei woke up, knowing that Mingyue didn't go to save him but interrogated him first, he would have a mustard in his heart!
He Qianshan thought about it, but sighed again: "I can't imagine that this Liuyun Castle is also an eventful place?"
What he means by saying this is that no matter what his Shao family's character is, being able to do such a thing shows that Liuyun Castle is not stable, and he is not at ease when Mingyue marries him!
It's just that I don't know if Mingyue really belongs to Shao Lei, so I can't say it so clearly!
Although Fu Mingyue is young, she is very clever, she can hear the meaning of He Qianshan's words, but she does not answer, and only uses actions to show her meaning.
She took the snuffbox containing the antidote and went to wake up Shao Lei and everyone in Liuyun Castle one by one!
When everyone woke up, they heard that they were drugged by Sun Laojiu, and they were angry, so they all rushed over and beat him, but fortunately they were drunk by Shao Lei, otherwise these many people rushed up, and Sun Laojiu was not beaten into meat puree!
Although Shao Lei saved face, he still expressed his gratitude first, but did not thank "Zhao Wu", but thanked Zhao Duxue, the master of "Zhao Wu", and also questioned why "Zhao Wu" was not drugged?
Zhao Duxue explained.
"This subordinate of our family has been a medicine jar since he was a child, and he drills in the pile of medicinal herbs every day, and this little medicinal property can't help him!"
Shao Lei asked again: "Does he know kung fu?"
"Yes, that's why my family asked him to accompany me out. But martial arts are very superficial, only with great strength!"
These are all the words that Zhao Duxue and the three of them thought of in advance, and they barely make sense, plus they come from the mouth of a beauty, Shao Lei is convinced!
When Sun Laojiu was mentioned in front of Shao Lei, he already had a blue nose and swollen face, and the corners of his mouth were bleeding, and it seemed that someone still secretly gave him a few blows to relieve his anger!
"Your name is Sun Jiu, right?" Shao Lei asked Sun Laojiu, who was kicked and kneeling on the ground.
"Exactly!"
Sun Laojiu's waist was straight, his head was held high, and in the face of the young castle master of Liuyun Castle, his expression was not panicked at all, and even his eyes showed disdain!
"How long has it been in Flowing Cloud Castle?"
"I don't remember!"
"Smack!" one of Shao Lei's subordinates went up and slapped him, and came back to Shao Lei and said, "Young Castle Master, this person has been in the fort for more than two and a half years!"
"Have you been lurking for so long?" Shao Lei was a little surprised, and said in a low voice: "How did you recruit people at that time?
The subordinate whispered: "Don't you remember, young master, at that time, the old man felt that there was a shortage of manpower in the fort, so he urgently recruited a group of people, as long as they had a good kung fu foundation, they were all let in!"
Shao Lei remembered that there was such a thing, and then asked Sun Laojiu: "Who sent you here? East or West?"
Sun Laojiu actually pulled his throat and shouted eight words in a high-pitched voice: "Righteousness is in charge, like the sun!"
"Oh!" Shao Lei seemed to suddenly realize, "It turns out that you are a member of the Zhongtian Alliance! Which sect and sect of the Zhongtian Alliance?"
"Don't ask about this, let Lao Tzu go quickly, otherwise I will kill you in the same door, and I want you to stay in Liuyunbao Chicken Dog!"
Shao Lei frowned, he should be very disgusted by Sun Laojiu's disrespectful words, and laughed angrily: "Are all thieves so arrogant now?"
Just now, the subordinate went up again and gave Sun Laojiu a big ear scraper!
Shao Lei asked again: "Do you have any other accomplices in Liuyun Castle?"
"Yes, he, he, he, and him!"
Including the person who slapped him just now, Sun Laojiu actually identified a few "accomplices" on the spot! Needless to say, these should be the people who secretly beat him just now!
Shao Lei saw that he couldn't ask anything for the time being, and he didn't want to delay the trip, so he asked someone to tie Sun Laojiu to his horse, and ordered him to pack up and go on the road, saying that he would go back to the fort and interrogate him carefully.
He Qianshan and Zhao Duxue glanced at each other, and He Qianshan said in a low voice: "Sister, something seems wrong!"
Zhao Duxue nodded.
"Yes, he didn't even ask why people wanted to tie him up and Mingyue!"
