After traveling through time, the four best friends were all targeted by the boss

After saying goodbye to Meng Yin, Gu Ling did not return to his room.

He came to the dungeon, and the guard naturally knew him and let him in.

He Fu and Sun Qing were hung on wooden stakes, with their toes barely touching the ground. Their arms were tied with ropes, and their tendons in their hands and feet had been severed.

They couldn't sleep at all, and even if they passed out they would be woken up by being poured with water.

When Sun Qing saw it was him, he couldn't help but move a little.

Gu Ling walked towards them, a chilling chill revealed between his handsome brows.

"What do you want to do? Even if we are death row prisoners, you can't do it on your own!" Sun Qing shouted.

Gu Ling smiled sinisterly and took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms.

He reached out and pulled out the cork, and two blood-red worms poked their heads out from the bottle.

He Fu and Sun Qing were stunned with fear.

"Are you scared?" Looking at their trembling legs, the sinister smile on Gu Ling's face disappeared instantly, replaced by an undisguised mocking look.

"Don't worry, this is just a very common poisonous insect. It will slowly eat away at your internal organs. As for whether it hurts or not, I haven't experienced it." Gu Ling did not forget to explain and raised his leg to approach them.

"No...no!" Both of them had seen the power of the poisonous insects from Old Han. After hearing what Gu Ling said, they regretted it very much.

If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have listened to that damn old man.

Gu Ling took out a dagger and stabbed them hard on the shoulders. Because of the pain, they opened their mouths, and Gu Ling took the opportunity to throw the poisonous insects into their mouths.

Before the two men could react, the poisonous insect entered their bodies at an extremely fast speed. Endless fear and nausea buried them, and the two men fainted.

Gu Ling suppressed the expression on his face. When they woke up, they would have to endure the pain of having their internal organs eaten.

Who told them to touch someone they shouldn't have touched? Gu Ling left the dungeon, turned his head to look at the yard where Meng Yin was, and flew back to the house to take a shower and rest.

The next day, because of what happened last night, except for Xu Zheng who got up early in the morning to change Pei Xuanxi's dressings, the other three were still sleeping.

Xu Zheng knocked on the door, and Pei Xuanxi's voice came from inside: "Come in."

She pushed the door open and saw Pei Xuanxi was just getting dressed.

"Wait, don't put it on yet!" Xu Zheng ran forward and grabbed his arm.

"What's wrong?" Pei Xuanxi looked up and asked.

Xu Zheng took out something: "The medicine hasn't been changed yet." She put the things on the stool.

"Ahem." Pei Xuanxi coughed twice and said gently, "I haven't put on my clothes yet. Miss Xu, please go out first."

Xu Zheng glanced at him. He was covered in layers of clothes, what could she see?

"Don't put it on yet. Let me change the gauze for you." Xu Zheng bent down. "Do you want me to help you take it off? I think it's inconvenient for you."

Pei Xuanxi shook his head: "No need, let the servant come."

Xu Zheng lowered her head and stirred the medicine in her hand. She was not wearing any makeup, and there was no blemish on her bright face. Her red lips were slightly upturned, making her look very playful.

Pei Xuanxi was thinking of tricking her again.

"It's not very convenient for the servants, so I'll do it myself." Pei Xuanxi said again, with a serious expression, and it was impossible to tell that he had any evil intentions.

Xu Zheng put down the medicine and looked up at him: "Stand up, you only need to take off your upper body."

Pei Xuanxi stood up obediently. Xu Zheng frowned and carefully unbuttoned his inner clothes.

"Why do you wear so many clothes? It's so troublesome to wash clothes." Xu Zheng said.

The two were very close, and Pei Xuanxi could clearly smell the faint fragrance on her body.

After taking off all her shirt, Xu Zheng almost had a nosebleed.

Pei Xuanxi looked handsome and gentle on the outside, and no one dared to insult him when he stood there, but no one expected that he was so mysterious inside.

Xu Zheng couldn't help but look at them several times. The pectoral muscles, the waist, and the abdominal muscles, eight of them at a time, with even skin color. They looked so good to touch. She really wanted to try it out.

Although Xu Zheng is straight, she also likes to look at handsome guys. It’s just that Pei Xuanxi is too serious, so she doesn’t have any other ideas.

It shouldn't be a problem if she just takes a few glances now, right?

"Miss Xu, what's wrong with you?" Pei Xuanxi saw her staring at him in a daze, smiled slightly and asked.

Xu Zheng came back to her senses and was glad that she didn't have a nosebleed. She smiled awkwardly: "Haha, it's okay, it's okay, Master Pei usually exercises very hard."

Pei Xuanxi saw her slightly red cheeks and smiled: "Yes, I practice martial arts every day."

Hearing this, Xu Zheng sighed and said, "Alas, you are injured and can't teach me Qinggong."

Pei Xuanxi thought for a moment and said, "I can teach you in less than a month, but before that, I can give you a few other things for self-defense."

"Oh? What is it?" Xu Zheng's eyes lit up and she immediately became interested.

Pei Xuanxi smiled slightly, "Miss Xu will know in a few days."

Xu Zheng blinked and nodded, not quite understanding.

Pei Xuanxi said hesitantly: "Miss Xu."

"What's wrong?" Xu Zheng was still wrapping the gauze.

"Why do I have to take off my entire shirt and only take off my sleeves...isn't it possible?" Although Pei Xuanxi asked shyly, he looked at Xu Zheng without blinking.

Xu Zheng coughed twice, "I took it off without realizing it..."

After saying that, she added: "This is more convenient."

Pei Xuanxi pursed her lips and smiled, but said nothing.

Thanks to Yiqing's methods, Sun Qing and He Fu only told the old man's whereabouts. They also didn't know Han Lao's real name and identity. They only knew that he was very powerful and could mix various poisons and make Gu.

When Yiqing was interrogating them, bloodshot eyes appeared on their faces from time to time, accompanied by screams.

Yiqing narrowed his eyes. He had seen this thing before. It was a poisonous insect.

Of course, he chose not to see it.

The news that the murderer of the dozen murders had been captured soon spread to the people of Ziyang City. They cheered and decided to light lanterns on the Flower Festival on the fifteenth day of next month to pray for the dead and wish them a speedy reincarnation.

"So that guy He Fu doesn't have any sister at all, he's just lying!" Meng Yin took a big bite of the steamed bun. She really wanted to rush into the dungeon and kick him.

"That's right, and He Fu has confessed. Chunxue is just a pawn they used to divert our investigation. They are worse than beasts." Xia Nian cursed.

Tao Tao was a little sad: "The man who said he wanted to take Chunxue away was Sun Qing. It's really hard to imagine how she felt at that time."

All three of them fell silent.

Yes, he said lovingly that he would take you away in the last second, but poisoned you in the next second. You regarded him as hope, but he regarded you as a pawn.

Xia Nian frowned. It turned out that men could not be trusted.

"Niannian, what are you thinking about?" Meng Yin asked.

Xia Nian raised her head and sighed: "I was just thinking that the most unreliable thing in the world is a man's heart."

"There are good men too." Meng Yin said.

Xia Nian smiled calmly, "It's not certain that we will meet him."

"That's true." Meng Yin nodded.

Tao Tao was about to say something, but out of the corner of her eye she saw a corner of black clothes behind the gate.

The three of them sat in the yard eating and chatting, Tao Tao facing the gate, Meng Yin and Xia Nian facing the gate sideways.

"Is there anyone outside?" Tao Tao shouted.

Xia Nian and Meng Yin looked towards the door at the same time. Xiahou Yu lowered his eyes and walked out.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to listen to you." Xiahou Yu lowered his head slightly. He was wearing a black suit with a waistband. He stood there, looking handsome, but for no reason he gave people a feeling of grievance.

Xia Nian looked at him and guessed that he heard everything.
