Looking for you in reincarnation
Chapter 95 Escorting the Prisoner
The forest at night is when animals are most active. Most of them will come out of their hiding places to look for food.
There are owls on the branches. Their sharp eyes penetrate the night and stare closely at everything in the forest. Occasionally, they glide between the treetops, their bodies very agile.
On the grass, the chirping sounds of various insects can be heard one after another.
In the jungle, there are animals such as wild boars and foxes roaming and hunting.
When Hu Qing stepped into the forest, the insects around him stopped chirping.
The owl on the branch stared at him with its round eyes, not daring to move, and curled up into a ball.
When the wild boar not far away saw him, it seemed as if it saw its natural enemy. It was so scared that it turned around and ran away at a very fast speed.
Hu Qing opened his eyes wide and walked through the forest.
Due to the changes in his body, his body was not very flexible and he could not catch up with animals that ran too fast. So, he wandered around for an hour before he caught a clumsy hare.
After he caught the hare, he opened his mouth and bit it, just like before, drinking the blood first and then eating the meat.
Gulu~Gulu~
Hu Qing swallowed the warm blood in big gulps and found it very sweet, but the taste was still a little worse than human blood.
Now he is a little picky, especially after tasting human blood, which he thought tasted very good. Now when he drinks rabbit blood, he feels it tastes much worse.
After drinking the rabbit's blood, he began to gnaw on the rabbit meat and eat the rabbit hair together.
However, after taking a bite, he became disgusted again, saying that there were too many hairs and the taste was not good, with a mouth full of hairs!
He grabbed the rabbit impatiently and tore it hard. The rabbit was torn apart immediately, leaving a big hole in its belly. He immediately opened his mouth and ate the internal organs and flesh inside. It was very bloody.
There was complete silence all around, not a sound at all, except for the sound of him eating.
……
Deep in the forest, Guo Yi and Liu Xi woke up. Liu Xi was fine, his injuries had improved a little, and he looked more energetic. However, Guo Yi was seriously injured and poisoned, so even though the toxin had been cleared, he was still very weak.
After they woke up, they learned what happened afterwards and felt heavy and helpless.
At this time, Xie Ying had not yet woken up. After taking the medicine, the poison in her body was cleared, but the rotten wounds could only be healed slowly, and her face was completely ruined.
The drug in Xie Meng's body has not been removed yet. Because the drug is unusual, ordinary people can't remove it at all. Anyway, they have no way, so she is still weak all over and in very poor condition.
This was mainly because Hu Qing's escape dealt her a heavy blow.
Chen Jing was still busy taking care of them. In just two days, he had lost a lot of weight. Apart from still having some strength, his condition was not much better than Xie Meng's. He was also in a depressed state.
The people of Baishi Sect were much more energetic after a day's rest. Except for a few injured people, they were in sharp contrast to the people of Taiyi Sect.
They have now made up their minds. Since they have escaped the disaster, they will live well. As for saving people and revenge, they will put it aside for the time being.
Now those who are detained may have already taken effect of the poison, just like Hu Qing, and it is too late to save them.
Moreover, they don't have the ability to save them, and as for revenge, forget it, that would get them killed, and they all want to live.
They planned to leave the forest tomorrow to get the reward that Xie Meng had promised to give them. As for the matter of the elixir of immortality... they would talk about it after they got the reward.
When the time comes, I will leave this Great Yan Kingdom. The world is so big, there is no place I can't go.
In addition, regarding Xie Meng's suggestion of looking for Hu Qing, they let nature take its course. It would be great if they could find him along the way, but they would not take the risk of looking for him. Who knows if Hu Qing has already turned into a zombie by now?
The risks of finding a corpse are different from those of finding a person, and if the noise is too loud, it is easy to attract the police.
……
In Lingcheng, after nightfall, the city gates had long been closed and heavily guarded, but tonight was different from usual.
During curfew, the city gates suddenly opened, and a group of officials escorted all the mortals in the prison out of the city.
All the prisoners were chained and locked in crowded prison vans. Cloth was stuffed into their mouths to block them from making any sound.
Most of these prisoners were bandits who had robbed before, and there were hundreds of them in total. Because there were too many prisoners, there were not enough prison vans. Some of the prisoners could only follow the prison vans on foot, with iron chains on their hands. They were also tied together with ropes and walked one after another, with officers guarding on both sides.
In this way, the convoy carrying prisoners marched through the empty streets and headed out of the city.
Because the noise was so loud, many people in some houses on both sides of the street secretly huddled by the windows, looking at the crowd outside.
After all, escorting prisoners out of the city late at night was too unusual.
Ning Ji took advantage of this opportunity and, as before, climbed over the wall into the city from a less well-defended area at the edge of the city.
At this time, he changed into a black nightgown, climbed over the towering city wall, and quickly blended into the surrounding shadows, landing silently.
He looked around, cleverly avoided the patrolling guards, and ran quickly towards the dark and quiet streets, occasionally taking advantage of the momentum to leap, his movements agile.
He did not go to the pharmacy immediately, but ran to the county magistrate's mansion in the city first.
At this time, because most of the officials were transferred to the convoy escorting prisoners, there were fewer guards patrolling the county magistrate's mansion, and Ning Ji easily sneaked into the mansion.
His eyes were as sharp as an eagle. When he met patrolling guards, he would use his amazing speed and agility to quickly hide in the shadows or some dark corners and go straight to the county magistrate's study.
At this time, the county magistrate's mansion was in a state of peace and prosperity. County magistrate Gao Hua was in the backyard hall, drinking and having fun with a group of dancers.
The order to escort the prisoners came from the Imperial Master. He told his subordinates to do it and there was no need for him to escort them personally.
Recently, the properties of those immortal sects were confiscated. Although the majority of them had been handed over, he only took a small portion of it, but he still made a lot of money. He was so happy that he could even laugh in his sleep.
He was in a very happy mood, so he took some time out of his busy schedule to have some fun.
The banquet hall was brightly lit and filled with music and singing.
The table was filled with delicious food. Each dish was carefully cooked, with good color, aroma and taste. The air was filled with tempting aroma.
A group of dancers dressed in light gauze clothes danced gracefully, like delicate flowers competing with each other for beauty.
Gao Hua held the wine glass, swaying it gently and melodiously, humming a tune along with the sound of stringed instruments. The wine in the glass overflowed and dripped onto the table, filling the air with the aroma of wine.
His eyes were full of intoxication and enjoyment.
On the other side, Ning Ji had quietly sneaked into the study. In front of the study, there were two guards standing there blankly. If you look closely, you can find that there is a silver needle stuck in their heads. At this moment, their eyes are dull, as if they are wooden men.
