Dressed as a subjugated princess, I will take my husband into exile with me

The mute girl glanced at her and the men, and then said in sign language, "If you want to have fun, don't come to this place. It's very dangerous here."

Perhaps it was because Zhao Lingshan could communicate with her that she became more kind.

"Why did you want to kill him just now?" Zhao Lingshan naturally had no intention of leaving.

"My task is to look after the medicine garden. If any outsider wants to talk to the medicine slave, I will kill him." She continued to communicate with Zhao Lingshan, not worried that others could understand.

"Did you voluntarily work here, or were you poisoned and controlled by them?" Zhao Lingshan continued to communicate with her with confidence.

"I was originally alone, homeless and wandering around without care."

"I met the village chief by chance, and she took me in and gave me a place to live and food to eat."

"I know some martial arts, so she left the medicine garden to me."

"She didn't use poison on me. I volunteered to do things for her." It was rare for someone to "chat" with her, so she was very happy to "talk" to this person.

"Haha, really?" Zhao Lingshan said in sign language with a sneer on her face.

The mute girl didn't know why she asked this, and her face suddenly became confused.

Zhao Lingshan no longer gestured, but stepped forward and gently held the mute girl's wrist.

Within a moment, she determined the mute girl's physical condition.

"Your village chief really doesn't trust anyone!" Zhao Lingshan took two steps back and started communicating with the mute girl again.

"You mean, I was also poisoned?" After she asked, there was an expression of disbelief on her face.

Zhao Lingshan did not reply with any sign language, but nodded firmly.

The mute woman couldn't accept it for a moment and took several steps back.

She was grateful to the village chief and had never had any thoughts of betrayal.

She has always fulfilled her duties when working for the village chief, and she has never flinched even when doing these dirty things.

But why did the village chief still not believe her and even wanted to poison her?

"No, you lied to me. The village chief trusts me. She can't do this to me!"

"Besides, don't you know whether I was poisoned or not?" She gestured quickly, her hands almost dancing into afterimages.

Although she denied it, her intuition told her that the woman in front of her did not lie to her.

"The poison she gave you will not affect your ability to use martial arts, nor will it make you feel any discomfort."

"However, if you have any rebellious thoughts or do something extraordinary, she can activate the toxins in your body at any time, making you unable to survive or die!"

"It's just that before that, these poisons won't hurt you." Zhao Lingshan told her with a calm expression.

"But one thing you definitely don't know is that if you continue to work in the medicine garden, sooner or later, you will die."

"Because in this medicine garden, there happen to be some herbs that can make you poisonous."

"Although it is not as dangerous as taking it directly, long-term exposure can still cause toxin attacks."

"I believe that your village chief who is good at using poison will not know this." After Zhao Lingshan expressed these, she silently watched her reaction.

If the mute girl knew what kind of poison she had been poisoned before, she still felt that the village chief's behavior was excusable.

Then the news she knew now directly overturned her own understanding.

It turns out that it doesn't mean that he has always been loyal, so he won't have the chance of getting poisoned.

But the village chief she had always been loyal to had never trusted anyone and had no intention of letting anyone go.

"I...I don't believe it..." The more she gestured, the weaker her hands became.

Just like a speaker, his voice becomes quieter the more he speaks.

This is a sign of lack of confidence.

"It just so happens that I have a way to prove it for you." Zhao Lingshan felt that this mute girl was someone who could help her, so she took the trouble to continue to express her feelings to her.

"The herb with white flowers is called Bai Qingshao, and it is one of the many antidote medicines used."

"As long as you put your own blood on it, if it's poisonous, those flowers will turn red."

"On the contrary, if you are not poisoned, they will not change in any way." Zhao Lingshan happened to see the bunch of herbs clearly through the light in the medicine slave's hand.

At this time, the mute girl's belief in her heart had collapsed.

She walked to where the white herbs were growing, cut her finger without hesitation, and dripped a few drops of blood on one of the white flowers.

Then, visible to the naked eye, the flower quickly turned red.

Then, Zhao Lingshan took out a dagger, grabbed Mu Wu's finger and cut it off.

Because she briefly used some powers, the blood Mu Wu shed did not contain any toxins.

Everyone could see that Mu Wu's blood was dripping on another flower. The flower was still white and unchanged.

The white ones are flowers and the red ones are blood.

The mute woman couldn't bear the blow, and the sword in her hand fell to the ground.

But the strange thing is that no matter what happened on their side or what she just did, the medicine slaves acted as if they didn't see it and still concentrated on what they were doing.

Zhao Lingshan didn't give her a chance to breathe. She came to her and started signing again, "What are these people doing?"

After the mute girl was briefly sad, she didn't know what her psychology was about, "They are looking for a poisonous insect. These insects especially like to eat the medicinal materials in the medicine garden."

"They are only active at night, and you can't see their shadows at all during the day."

"I remember the village chief said that this kind of insect is extremely rare and precious."

"If you use them as medicine, whether it's a poison or an antidote, you'll get twice the result with half the effort."

After watching her compete, Zhao Lingshan nodded to show that she understood. Then she asked another question, "Can you hear others talking?"

After a brief hesitation, the mute woman answered truthfully: "I was not born deaf and mute, but after a serious illness, I can neither speak nor hear."

"But if I can see the speaker's mouth shape, I can know what he is saying."

Zhao Lingshan knew that what she said was that she could read lips.

Because of those female bandits. He thought she couldn't hear anything, so he didn't cover up anything he said in front of her.

From this point of view, I made the right bet on this treasure. This mute girl must know many of their secrets.

"What's your name?" Zhao Lingshan had no intention of stopping.

At this time, the mute girl was no longer on guard against her, "I...I don't have a name, they all call me little mute."

"All I remember is that I had a serious illness and when I woke up, I forgot who I was."

"Then soon after, I couldn't speak, and eventually I couldn't even hear."

"But I know martial arts, maybe it's an instinctive memory."

After the mute girl communicated with her for a while, she felt more and more like talking to her about her innermost feelings.
