Chapter 219 Try the Blade

He took several deep breaths, but the pain in his chest didn't ease at all. The masked deputy captain touched the spot on his chest where he was kicked, and he gasped in pain.

This kind of pain must be caused by broken ribs.

The damn woman kicked and broke his ribs again. The masked deputy captain's eyes were filled with hatred.

"What do you want... to let me and... my brothers go?" The masked deputy captain asked this question with great effort.

"Let you and your brothers go." Tao Qiuyi took a few steps towards the masked deputy captain, slightly bending over to look at him. "To tell you the truth, I have no intention of letting you and your brothers go."

When she discovered that these people had evil intentions towards her, she had no intention of letting them live.

What are animals doing here? To continue to cause harm to others?

Hadn't they proudly claimed that they had killed many innocent people and yet hadn't seen any retribution? Today, she would let them know that those who do evil will eventually perish. Their retribution had arrived.

"You..." The masked deputy captain was horrified as he had no intention of letting them go.

Could it be that he was really going to die here today? No, it was impossible. He couldn't die here. This woman didn't dare to kill them.

Yes, killing is illegal. This woman didn’t dare to kill them. At most, she would hand them over to the local police.

The police wouldn't dare kill them, they would only interrogate them, at most using some tactics during the interrogation. As long as they refused to answer, the police couldn't do anything to them.

As for the police's interrogation methods, they are people who have undergone rigorous special training and can easily handle them.

Bending down to pick up the knife from the ground, Tao Qiuyi tested the blade, finding it very sharp. He slashed it with his backhand, striking the masked deputy captain's arm, causing blood to flow slowly.

"You're splashing people! How dare you..." The masked deputy captain quickly pressed the bleeding wound and looked at Tao Qiuyi with gritted teeth.

Those ferocious eyes were like a beast staring at its prey, ready to pounce on her and bite her to death at any time.

"I'm just testing whether your blade is sharp or not. Why are you so angry?" Tao Qiuyi said innocently.

Her nonchalant tone infuriated the masked deputy captain. He fiercely declared, "Woman, I will remember you. I will repay you double for the humiliation you inflicted today."

"If you say that one day, I won't let you have a future." Tao Qiuyi looked at him with a smile.

"What do you mean?" The masked deputy captain felt a sudden panic in his heart.

Tao Qiuyi didn't answer, but asked him, "Do you have anything to confess?"

There was no murderous intent in her eyes, and a faint smile on her fair face, in stark contrast to her previous panic, fear, and sobbing.

"Give me the antidote and I will tell you." The masked deputy captain said in a deep voice, not letting go of any chance to survive.

"I didn't poison you, so where would I get the antidote?" Tao Qiuyi continued to deny it. "I'll ask you again, do you have any last words? If you do, please tell me now so we can get going."

Last words, on the road, what was she saying? The boy leaning against the tree felt that he understood every word she said, but he didn't understand the meaning.

"I..." He opened his mouth to curse, but the cloth covering his face fell off, revealing an ordinary face. A small object instantly flew into his mouth, slid down his throat and into his stomach. "What did you give me to eat?"

"Are you crazy? When did I ever give you anything to eat?" Tao Qiuyi looked like you're asking me a question even though you already know the answer, so I won't admit it.

The masked deputy captain was furious. He was now 100% certain that she was the one who poisoned him. His heart sank, and he quickly dug his hands into his throat, trying to vomit the poison out.

Of the four masked men, one was dead, two lay wailing on the ground, waiting to die. The last one, with both legs broken, lay on the ground, trying to spit out the pills he had swallowed. With these four men no longer able to fight, Tao Qiuyi ignored them.

He looked at the knife in his hand and it looked familiar. Judging from its sharpness, it was no ordinary knife. He took the guns of the four people and walked into the woods with the guns.

Pretending to hide it, he actually put it into the ring space.

He came back and walked straight to the backpack, picked up the fallen herbs and put them back into the basket, then carried the basket on his back.

Coming up to the young man, seeing that he had his eyes closed, Tao Qiuyi kicked him. Then he asked calmly, "Are you still alive?"

"Alive." The young man opened his eyes and looked at the pretty face of the woman in front of him. It was the first time he had seen such a beautiful woman. "Has anyone ever told you that your beauty is classical?"

After saying this, the boy was stunned and his face turned red.

Her beauty is very classical, which is not something a child who grew up in the village can say. Tao Qiuyi looked around and simply sat cross-legged in front of the boy.

The boy came back to his senses and looked at her in confusion.

"Who are you? How did they catch you? Where do they want you to take them?" Tao Qiuyi asked three questions in a row.

The boy stared at Tao Qiuyi blankly, his mind swirling with the words she had said to the masked deputy captain: "Last words" and "Going on your way."

If he didn't answer her question, would she ask him if he had any last words, and then go on his way after saying them?

Remembering how she had broken the masked vice-captain's legs, the boy hesitated again. After much hesitation, he mustered up the courage to say, "Before I answer your question, could you please answer a question for me first?"

"Okay." Tao Qiuyi nodded generously.

Such a straightforward and unexpected answer left the young man confused.

"What's the problem?" Tao Qiuyi raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

"No, no problem." The boy shook his head, then looked up at the four masked men on the ground. "Are they...are they going to die?"

"Not necessarily." Tao Qiuyi gave an ambiguous answer. Seeing the boy's confused face, he added, "Food poisoning can sometimes be fatal."

Wei Jingyuan's parents lost their lives after accidentally eating poisonous mushrooms.

The poison she had given the four masked men was extracted from poisonous mushrooms. The poison wouldn't take effect quickly, but it wouldn't take too long either, first corroding the internal organs before killing them.

The most important thing is that nothing can be found out, and people will just think that they have accidentally eaten poisonous mushrooms and lost their lives because they did not seek medical treatment in time.

"Food poisoning." The young man's eyes widened, and he pointed at the masked man and asked, "Are they like this because of food poisoning?"

"What else? Didn't you hear them say that you've been wandering in the mountains for a few days? It's not surprising that you accidentally ate poisonous food." Tao Qiuyi refused to admit to poisoning.

He would not even tell the young man that those four people were doomed to die.

Suddenly, she thought of something and looked at the boy in surprise, "You don't really think I poisoned you, do you?"

"I'm not, I didn't." The boy retorted too quickly, revealing his true thoughts.

"That's good. Otherwise, I can't clear myself of the suspicion of poisoning even if I jump into the Yellow River." Tao Qiuyi knew that he didn't doubt him, otherwise he would have run away by now.
