Ru Yue Shu Yun Feng Wen Wan

Chapter 23 Drinking poison to quench thirst

In fact, one could hear He Ru's hesitation in her words, and Qiao Mu felt that he might have a chance.

That was all he needed to know; he had plenty of time for the rest. He smiled knowingly, a handsome smile. His face wasn't particularly striking, but his smile was infectious. He seemed like a very sunny person. But He Ru didn't believe a single bit of it. It was just a pretense. Even if his smile was genuine this time, did that prove he wasn't pretending?

"Let's go!"

Clap your hands, and two strong men come in from outside, escorting two men.

"Take them away. If any of you figure it out, you can come to me anytime. I forgot to tell you that you can't leave Youzhou. You'd better take care of yourselves!" After saying that, he touched the jade pendant on his waist, then took off his purse and threw it to He Ru.

"If you have brought all the contents of the purse, you can come to me."

After that, four people came in from outside and came to the side. He Ru smelled a faint mint scent. He thought, Wow, it's winter, mint scent, I'm not afraid of the cold.

When they reached the door, the two people behind them followed, plus a guard at the door who was not as tall as them. The three of them were put on the hoods again and went down the mountain.

Halfway through their walk, they left on their own. The three men watched He Ru and the others descend the mountain before returning. They also repeatedly checked to see if anyone was following them. He Ru did want to follow them, but if she went back now, it would be like committing suicide.

But she was unwilling to give up, so she finally decided to go back. He Ru said to He Lan and He Yi Xiu, "I'll go back and take a look. You two go first."

Just as he finished speaking, another silver needle was pressed against He Ru's neck. The hand that grabbed He Ru's wrist was He Lan.

He Lan said, "Do you think we are all fools? What are you going to do when you go back? Are you going to agree to him? I'm warning you, you are a member of the He family, you are a Xiqing person. If you want to betray your country, I promise to kill you with my own hands."

He Lan's poison needle was given by He Ru.

Because she had collected all the poison needles she had used before. She had collected twenty poison needles from Zhao Gang, and she gave seven to He Huan, and then gave another seven to He Lan, keeping six for herself. The ones she and He Huan used were all poisonous, while the five she gave to He Lan were not poisonous because He Lan would apply poison on the needles herself.

He Ru knew that she had misunderstood, but she was too impatient to talk to her any more. She was really scared just now and didn't have much energy to argue with her.

"I know, I won't, don't worry." She handed the purse to He Lan to show her determination. In fact, He Lan also wanted to go back, but she knew that they were still too weak and going back would be like committing suicide.

But now that he saw He Ru was determined to go, he took He Ru's hand and said, "I'll go with you. Yi Xiu, you go back first."

After hearing this, He Ru said firmly, "No, I'm too conspicuous. If I don't come back within an hour, you will go and explain the situation to the village chief, and then come to rescue me. I'll leave a mark for you."

He Lan hesitated: "But...Okay, you go alone, I know what to do."

After saying that, he took out all the poison needles from her body, pulled her far enough away, and made sure that He Yixiu could not hear their conversation before taking out another bottle of poison.

His expression was extremely serious. "This is a bottle of poison. I call it Zun Yu Qian Ye. It has a pungent taste. You only need to take out one pill and dissolve it in water. In less than a cup of tea, it will make people hungry and thirsty. If they can't find water, they will bleed to death from all seven orifices. If they can find water to drink, they will burst and die from drinking water. They will drink from Zhao Shui before they are completely out of breath. If there is no water, you can just leave it there. It will just take half a quarter of an hour for the drug to take effect. As long as it emits a smell, the more you inhale, the worse it will be. If you only inhale a very small amount, the desire to drink water will not be so strong."

After a pause, she lowered her voice and said, "Just find a man." Her face flushed after she said that.

He Ru was a little confused, wondering how it could have such a miraculous effect.

Then he took out a smaller bottle from his bosom and handed it to He Ru, saying more seriously: "This is the antidote. There is only one, just one. The effect lasts for 25 minutes. You must be careful."

He didn't stop until He Ru also looked serious.

Seeing that He Ru seemed to have listened, He Lan let her go. He Ru ran lightly and quickly up the mountain. After running for a long time, she finally realized something was wrong. It felt like someone was watching her, but she could sense no ill intentions. If there were any malicious intentions, He Ru would have discovered it long ago.

He Ru stopped, trying to identify the man. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind blew from behind, and He Ru dodged to the side. But the man, as if he had already seen through her movements, swung his fist fiercely to the side. Seeing that the situation was not good, He Ru bent down and barely avoided it. She didn't dare to stop for a moment, and unleashed a powerful core strength. She stood firm with one foot, kicked a stone on the ground with the other foot, and quickly stood up while the man dodged.

But the man's reaction was also ten times faster. He swung out an uppercut with his right hand, but the real power came from his feint, and a sweeping kick was intended to attack He Ru's lower body. He Ru thought he was going to hit him with that punch, but after seeing that his punch did not have much power, she changed her position to defend, jumped high and did a side split to try to pin the man down. When the man was about to grab her ankle, she suddenly bent her front foot and kicked the man's shoulder.

However, the man took a big step forward with the inertia of the sweeping kick, so He Ru only kicked him a little bit. Fortunately, He Ru's core was fine and he kept steady, otherwise he would have fallen.

Neither of them was confident in the other, so they turned around after standing still. He Ru recognized him as the not-very-tall man who had been guarding the door. He was wearing a mask.

He Ru thought he wouldn't hurt her, otherwise she wouldn't have to wait until now. The man walked towards her. He Ru thought he was going to hit her again, so she quickly stretched out her right hand to stop him. "Stop! What are you going to do?"

He Ru could feel that his martial arts skills were superior to hers, and she also felt that he understood her very well. He Ru even felt that he was fighting with her. If he fought with all his strength, she would probably be able to withstand two of his moves at most.

I couldn't see the man's expression, I only heard him say, "Don't go any further. If you can't get out of Youzhou, turn around and go home immediately. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous! Do you understand?"

His tone became softer and softer, and later on, it seemed as if he was coaxing He Ru.

He Ru felt very uncomfortable: "Do we know each other? What's your name?"

The man didn't answer, but just threw a jade pendant over and said, "If you have any problems, you can come to me with the jade pendant." He didn't say where to find it, maybe he didn't know either!

Seeing that He Ru didn't seem to be about to leave, he said again: "Go down the mountain! Don't come back, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!" After that, he turned around and left.

He Ru stood there for two minutes, stunned. Then he put away the jade pendant and went down the mountain.
