Chapter 38: Detecting Linglong Village at Night 4

"Young master, don't deny it in a hurry, there are more than a hundred men in this cottage..." Yue Tong looked up at Chu Shou, smiling sinisterly.

"Yes, sister, my mother and the others have also passed out, sister, you can save them!" Luzi plopped, fell to his knees, and shouted at Chu Shou with tears in his eyes. Song Yanqing's cold face did not dare to approach.

Meng Liang held Luzi tightly, and motioned him not to shout at Chu Shou. Seeing that Luzi was crying heartbreakingly, Ke Yanyue frowned and said, "Yes!"

Chu Shou turned her head and sneered, but without paying attention, she took out a small white porcelain bottle from her bosom, and said, "In the final analysis, you just want to refine medicine, ready-made medicine... Do you want it or not?"

She casually tossed the medicine bottle to Yuetong, who caught it steadily, held it in her hand and looked left and right, turned around and offered it to Cangcuo respectfully, Cangcuo stretched out his hand, slowly caught the white porcelain medicine bottle, and placed it on the Hesitating in the palm of her hand, she gently uncorked the bottle, retracted it into the waist-length veil, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it lightly, but she threw the bottle on the ground as if she had seen a ghost, and the bottle was full of bones. rolled to Chu Shou's feet.

Chu Shou bent over to pick up the cork of the bottle, showing a faint smile, at this moment, following Cang Cuo's muffled snort, she took a few steps back and collapsed to the ground.

Yuetong was also in a hurry, and crawled down on the ground to check Cangcuo's condition, "Master! Master!"

Cang Cuo was lying on the ground with her face exposed, she was anxious to cover her face again with the white gauze, but her hands and feet were limp and limp. The medicine Chu Shou gave her just now was not the drunkenness she wanted, but a colorless and odorless ecstasy. The medicine is in the form of a milky white solid, which does not melt under high temperature. Just a little smell can make people feel sore and weak. It is an exclusive secret formula~

"You majestic young master of the witch clan, how can you be so insidious and cunning!" Yue Tong supported Cang Cuo with one hand and pointed at Chu Shou and scolded, Cang Cuo raised his hand to hold Yue Tong's arm, frowned and shook his head.

There was a large red spot on Cangcuo's face, covering almost half of her face. She frowned, and there were tears in her eyes whether it was washed by the drug or something.

Chu Shou folded his arms around his chest and looked down at them and said, "Don't talk nonsense, just say whether you will give the antidote or not, and if you don't give it, then let your master bury the whole cottage. Anyway, you will die left and right, and I am not the one who died... ..."

Yuetong looked down at Cangcuo who was in some pain, silently clenched the dagger hidden under his robe, his eyes gradually moved away fiercely, when Fang made a gesture to rush out, a gleaming big knife was put up on his neck, that The cold light of the big knife dazzled her eyes, and she let go of the dagger helplessly.

With one hand behind his back, Song Yanqing held the big knife copied from the table in the other, staring straight at Yue Tong with indifferent eyes, telling her not to dare to do anything else, and said in a cold voice: "Be careful!" , A sword has no eyes."

Yuetong took out a small package from her bosom, which should be the antidote for everyone. She bit her lip hard, and without looking at Chu Shou, she just lifted it up slowly. Chu Shou slightly raised his eyebrows, stepped forward to take the antidote, After opening it, there was only a small packet of greenish powder. She raised her hand and twisted a small amount, slightly bent her lips, looked at Meng Liang and said, "Meng Liang, for the antidote, take a bucket of water, sprinkle it in and mix well, and take a sip for each person." detoxify."

Although the antidote is small, it is precise and precise. This female apprentice, Hatoyama, is not very temperamental, but her professional ability is quite good.

"Where's the antidote?" Yue Tong raised his head and asked, gnashing his teeth.

Chu Shou glanced lightly, then squatted down, his eyes were at the same level as Yuetong, and he leaned closer and said lazily, "I'll give it to you when I get down the mountain."

"You!" Yuetong wanted to move, but was forced back by the knife on his neck.

"Don't worry—I'm not as black-hearted as you are. People can't die. Get a good sleep and don't make trouble. I will protect your lives."

As soon as Chu Shou finished speaking, Yue Tong's neck was severely hit with a knife. She groaned, rolled her eyes, and fell straight backward.

She raised her eyes and looked at Song Yanqing with a smile, and said with a thumbs up: "It's really good."

After Song Yan listened, he curled his lips into a smile, shook his head helplessly, put away the big knife, put it on the table beside him, then stretched it out towards Chu Shou, raised his eyebrows, and hooked his long fingers.

As soon as Chu Shou grasped it, he was firmly pulled up by him. Meng Liang, Ke Yanyue, and Xiao Luzi were busy feeding them the antidote at this time. Some young and strong young men took the antidote for a while. He already had a little consciousness, lay down and relaxed for a while, and helped to prescribe the antidote.

Seeing that everyone slowly regained consciousness, Meng Liang came forward holding a bowl of antidote, and said to Chu Shou worriedly: "Princess, please go and see the head of the family, he has already been in a coma in bed, Xu is related to these people." Poison is different."

After hearing this, Chu Shou nodded, glanced at Cangcuo and Yuetong, and promised him: "Okay! Find two people to tie them up first, so that they can be taken care of. You lead the way, and I will let you go and see." Master."

Meng Liang nodded, his eyes were full of joy.

@
The head of the family was poisoned that night when he was married to Cangcuo, and he has been in a coma since then. Everyone thought that he was ill, so they just put him safely in the room, and there were special people to guard him.

The head of the family is Yang Ben, who was originally a villager at the foot of the mountain, and he is a brother of Yang Hu. Since his father and brother died in the mine, no one cares about him, so he brought the people who had suffered the same experience to occupy the mountain and become king.

The two brothers are quite intelligent, and soon they built a cottage, led the villagers to reclaim wasteland on the mountain, weaving and farming, and the resources in the mountain were insufficient, so they often robbed the caravan passing by the Nanshan Valley in the name of robbing the rich and helping the poor. Money and goods caused the caravans passing by to complain.

In order to eradicate the banditry, the government often sent troops to encircle and suppress. He was originally a frontier veteran. In order to resist the encirclement and suppression by officers and soldiers, he trained many villagers in the style of military camps.

Chu Shou is not good at judging the Qingzhou bandits. The government ignores the people who died in the mine collapse and forced the villagers to go to Liangshan. The villagers occupy the mountain as king and become bandits. They want to harass the innocent caravans passing by. It is not unreasonable to send troops to eliminate the banditry... Who is right and who is wrong, how can it be said in a few words.

Meng Liang traveled all the way from Kyoto to Qingzhou. In order to resolve conflicts internally, he became a military adviser to bandits and taught them to be self-sufficient.

This is nothing more than covering up their hatred caused by the unjust death of their relatives with peace and prosperity.

But the peace and prosperity of the people is not something that is hard-won or even more difficult.

Cang Cuo planted Gu worms to manipulate people so easily, but he just grasped the obsessions in their hearts. Once the fig leaf is pierced, it will be hard to get over the water and hard to resolve the resentment. Now it seems that the only way to go is to trace the source The best way.

Yang Benan lay quietly on the bed, his lips were purple, his forehead was blue, and his fingertips were white. Chu Shou followed the same position as Yang Hu and caught the Gu insect. Shou put it in a white porcelain bottle.

Went to check his pulse again, Yang Ben seemed...not poisoned, he was really sick, according to the usual method of taking care of him, his own illness is not a problem, but the purple lips are probably caused by Gu insects themselves. poison.

She took a pen and wrote a prescription, handed it to the people beside her, and instructed a few words, as long as she took the medicine on time, within a few days, the poison of the Gu worm would be dissipated, and then she would take good care of her body and recuperate her illness, and then she would be able to recover .

When he and the others went out, they met Yang Hu who was pacing up and down in a hurry outside. He was a tall and reckless man, and he was so anxious that he was at a loss and his face was red.

As soon as he saw Chu Shou going out, he hurriedly bowed, stepped forward to inquire about his brother's condition, lowered his head, and said in a rough voice: "Princess, military advisor, I was wrong! The female thief provoked a few words, and couldn't hold back the anger, and ran down the mountain with the brothers, violating the rules set by the elder brother, I heard that the officers and soldiers are surrounding me now, I am really useless!"

Meng Liang stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, comforting him: "It's nothing, it can be recovered now, don't worry."

"Yes, I drew up a prescription for the head of the family, and you will drink it for a few days. You don't want to drink alcohol during the medicine!" Chu Shou also persuaded.

Yang Hu scratched his head in embarrassment, so he could only answer naively, and hurriedly rushed into the room to guard Yang Hu's side.

Then, Song Yanqing and Chu Shou looked at each other and reminded her not to forget their real purpose of coming to Qingzhou. Chu Shou nodded slightly and asked Meng Liang, "Meng Liang, have you heard about the Qingzhou Copper Mine recently?" About smuggling to Youyan?"

After hearing this, Meng Liang tried hard to remember, frowned and shook his head, and said seriously: "I have never heard of it."

Chu Shou looked at Song Yanqing again, but it was rumored that the bandits in Qingzhou colluded with You Yan to smuggle copper mines and was intercepted by the border crossing, but he looked at Meng Liang's face of harmless to humans and animals, could it be... there is really something else in it... Strange?
"But the rumors in the market and the news we received are that the bandits in Qingzhou colluded with You Yan to smuggle copper ore."

Song Yanqing narrowed his eyes slightly, and made a straightforward statement without probing, with an indifferent tone.

Chu Shou hastily "coughed coughed" a few times, leaned close to him and pulled his sleeve robe, motioning him to keep quiet, thinking why this kid is so reckless...

Chu Shou was about to open his mouth, but Meng Liang shut his mouth with a sleeve of his robe. He raised his eyebrows, blushed furiously, snorted coldly, and said sternly: "Our cottage can be self-sufficient, but it's just a matter of doing something. The timber business is done by honest villagers nearby, where did they collude with other countries? Besides, the collapse of the mine is an eternal pain in their hearts, aren’t you ruining people by saying this?”

Meng Liang looked at Song Yanqing and persuaded himself that he was also the savior of the whole village, so he suppressed the anger between his brows, and his tone was restrained and calm.

Chu Shou opened his mouth again to say that he didn't mean that, but Song Yanqing preempted him, and he said seriously: "Mr. Meng is so clear?"

Meng Liang met his questioning eyes, and suddenly his emotions were released like a flood of beasts, and he turned back: "Oh——If this young master is worried, Meng will swear to God..."

Chu Shou: No...no need...

"If Meng...does something that betrays the country and disrespects morality in his lifetime, let these five thunderbolts blow up the grave of my Meng family's ancestors, and let Meng be crushed and die! Never cross the cycle of reincarnation!"

Chu Shou: Not so...not so...

Song Yanqing stood with his hands behind his back, and when he heard him make a poisonous oath, he nodded slightly, satisfied... with a cold face, he cupped his hands and said, "Offended."

Chu Shou: Offended...

After everyone settled their affairs, they followed the cellar, entered the cave, and descended the mountain. Cangcuo and Yuetong were tied to something similar to a sedan chair. Carrying it, followed by Chu Shou, Song Yanqing and Keyanyue.

Before they left, they also asked Meng Liang about the gate in the cave which was equipped with traps. He said that it was indeed done according to the book. He has been doing it for quite some time...

Chu Shou said again and again: No wonder no wonder.

No wonder there is a bit of clumsiness revealed in the simplicity...

Although the cave was still damp and dark, the mood of the few people was quite different from when they went up the mountain, and their steps couldn't help being a little lighter.

Chu Shou followed Song Yanqing, and explained with a broken mouth: "Meng Liang is an upright man, but he is a little stubborn. He has always admired the demeanor of a gentleman. Whenever you question him, he will be anxious. If you are anxious, he will swear that I am not It is unbelievable to say that he swears, if he swears poisonously, then... Shan... ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmhmhmhmhmhmhmhmhm, I think we have to start with the government if we want to find out.”

Song Yanqing nodded slightly, and replied: "Well, did you see that the officers and soldiers are on defense today? I just checked that the bandits are not better equipped than the officers and soldiers, and the men who can compete with them are also good and bad. If you go down the mountain rashly, you will be dead. , then the officers and soldiers will not be surrounded by Nanshan at night, and even pretend to rest, and use a trick to lure the enemy into deep..."

"That's right, and their patrol direction is not aimed at the inside of the valley, but outside the Nanshan Mountain. It seems to be on guard against someone entering the mountain. As Meng Liang said, since the smuggled copper mine was found at the border gate , The officers and soldiers were surrounded at the foot of Nanshan Mountain, which also led to the blockage of their news, so that the various actions of the government seem to be deceiving their ears and blocking their bells." Chu Shou touched his chin, frowning slightly and thinking.

Song Yanqing took up the quarrel again, "First, label them treasonously with other countries, and then use this as an excuse to besiege them on the mountain. As soon as you speak later, you can immediately send troops to encircle and suppress."

Chu Shou immediately raised his eyebrows, curled his lips in agreement, and said, "At that time... it won't matter who colluded with You Yan, who smuggled the copper ore, what matters is who wiped out the bandits, and who killed the people for the people." , thinking carefully..."

"That..." Ke Yanyue interrupted their back and forth, quietly raised her hand, and said timidly: "Well, do we have to go down the mountain? Both of them have sedan chairs... One came and one My feet hurt from walking back..."

Chu Shou smiled, as if reaching out to hit her, Ke Yanyue hugged herself and hurried to hide, Chu Shou said angrily: "The road is steep enough, you hold yourself tight, it's not bad to roll down. "

She opened her round eyes, and she spoke very sincerely...
