Yangcheng

Wu Xianrong was awakened by a strange itching on the back of his hand.

The itching felt like some insects got into her flesh and blood when she didn't notice, scratching her bones and pulling her tendons.

Wu Xianrong exclaimed and turned over, shaking his hands vigorously, trying to shake off the bugs on the back of his hands.

But after the shaking, the severe itching and pain were still there, and the bugs didn't seem to disappear due to the strong shock.

Wu Xianrong was particularly puzzled, what kind of insect is this, why is it sticking so tightly?

Being in the darkness, she couldn't see anything, and when she reached out her hand, she found that there were no bugs on the back of her hand, only two small, uneven blood holes.

She remembered that this place was bitten by a star spider that appeared out of nowhere before, this is the wound left by the star spider.

"Don't worry about it, you are hit by the poison of the red-faced spider who grew up eating poisonous toad venom. You still have an hour to live, so I advise you to think about your last words."

Not far from her, a woman suddenly spoke, and she was so startled that she immediately turned around to face the source of the sound.

Instinctively want to grab the snakeskin whip, but the whip is not at hand, and there is no trace of the snakeskin whip when I touch my waist.

Wu Xianrong remembered that when she was fighting fiercely with the little thief, she saw that Hu Guozhizi behind her was pierced through the brain by an arrow, and then the roof tiles under them collapsed, and she and the little thief both fell into a place from a high place. place.

The shock of falling from a high place made Wu Xianrong fall into a deep coma, and he just woke up now.

Then, the person who speaks to her now must be that little thief.

Since the little thief woke up earlier than her, but didn't kill her, and kept a certain distance from her at this time, it means that the little thief was not seriously injured, and it should be that he couldn't move anything except his mouth.

Wu Xianrong's whole body ached, and the itching pain on the back of his hand gradually became clear.

But she needs to know where she has landed first.The trip was in such a rush that I didn't have time to prepare anything.

Fortunately, there is a sky lantern given to her by Ah Shen.

There is a simple one-time fire box inside the sky lantern, and Wu Xianrong lit the sky lantern.

With a "hiss", the sky lantern lit up in Wu Xianrong's hand. She was already prepared and narrowed her eyes slightly.

On the other hand, Li Zhou's eyes had long adapted to the darkness, and when he suddenly saw the flames, he immediately turned his head in discomfort.

Wu Xianrong let go of the sky lantern, and the sky lantern floated up unsteadily, about six or seven meters away, as if it was blocked by something, hovering over Wu Xianrong's head.

If the sky lantern can float out, and Ah Shen sees the signal, maybe he can come to rescue her.

But if it can't float out, it can also become a lamp, illuminating the darkness and helping Wu Xianrong see the situation in front of him clearly.

What she was in at this time was a deep hole.

The length and width of the hole are only three or four steps, but the depth is six or seven meters. It looks like a trap.

There were several sharpened wooden stakes erected inside the trap, and the pointed ends of these wooden stakes made Wu Xian's hair stand on end.

If she was accidentally pierced by these wooden stakes when she fell, she might have died by now.

She looked back, and there was still blood on the wooden stake that pushed her back, and there was a long burning pain on her back, and when she reached out to touch it, she felt blood on her hand, which must have been scratched when she fell .

It's just a scratch... what a stroke of luck.

Wu Xianrong was somewhat afraid.

She looked up and saw by the light that the sky lantern was blocked by the remains of a cracked plank.

The other side of the board was cracked, and some vague tree shadows could be seen.

This trap should have been set in the yard of someone's house. She fell from the roof and fell right into the trap.

The owner of the yard may have been the No. [-] figure in Boling Mansion.

As far as Wu Xianrong knew, during party disputes, some high-ranking officials were afraid that assassins would enter from the backyard to assassinate, so they would usually dig traps on the main roads in the backyard and wait for the rabbit.

As for why it was "once", Wu Xianrong thought that when she fell, there must be a lot of noise. Up to now, no one has appeared to check who fell into the trap. The yard must have been abandoned long ago. The master Moved away, it became an abandoned house.

Thinking of this, Wu Xianrong wanted to use lightness kung fu to step up to have a look.

Unexpectedly, luck just now, the severe pain in her waist and legs made her break out in a cold sweat.

There was also a dry and hot turbid air in her heart, making her dizzy, her heart felt like a fire, her consciousness was confused, and she was sweating profusely.

The feeling of alternating hot and cold immediately vented more than half of her strength, Wu Xianrong was holding on to the earthen wall, and it took a long time to control her consciousness.

"There is no need to waste your energy. The more force you exert, the faster Hongyanku's toxin will work. It will only take a moment for you to become a corpse."

Wu Xianrong looked at the other side, and the words were full of little thieves who were watching the show.

The thief was indeed a woman, and the reason she couldn't move was because her left thigh was pierced by a sharp wooden stake, and the blood had already stained the ground beneath her red.

In order to be able to breathe more smoothly and control the speed of blood flow, she untied the mask of the night gown and tied it tightly to the wound on her leg.

She appeared to have struggled, trying to free her leg from the stake, but the sweat glistening on her face and neck proved that she hadn't succeeded.

Wu Xianrong tried to move Qi, but the tendons were congested and the Qi couldn't move at all.

She was indeed poisoned.

Looking at Wu Xianrong's appearance of trying to detoxify himself, Li Zhou couldn't help but sneer: "It's useless, Hongyanku didn't feel much at the beginning of the poisoning, but once he noticed something strange about himself, Hongyanku had already merged with your blood, It cannot be lifted."

The more lucky Wu Xianrong became, the more dizzy she felt, her blood felt as if it was boiling, and a bad pressure filled her heart, causing her to fly into a rage, and she stepped forward to hug the leg pierced by the wooden stake, and lifted it down forcefully.

Li Zhou was suddenly tense from the excruciating pain, and the scream rushed to her throat, but she swallowed it back with the willpower she had honed for many years.

"The antidote." Wu Xianrong stared at her extremely dangerously.

Li Zhou found out that Wu Xianrong's eyeballs had started to congest, which meant that the toxin of Hongyanku was already spreading.

Li Zhou took a few deep breaths, forcibly regained his slack consciousness, and continued to mock with his white lips: "How could I give you the antidote."

Wu Xianrong lifted her leg up again.

Chu Zhou was seriously injured and weak, while the toxin from the beauty made Wu Xianrong manic and restless.

In comparison, Li Zhou was no match for Wu Xianrong at all.

"There is no cure for this poison..." Chu Zhou said harshly, "How many times do I have to say it before you understand?!"

"Okay, then I'll change the question." Wu Xianrong asked her, "Are you from the Lan family?"

Chuzhou sneered: "What blue family and green family, I don't understand."

"Last time in Juxingfang, you were the one who monitored Shi Gongyu and the others. Lan Wanjin told you to do the most dangerous things, let you walk on the tip of a knife, just treat you as a dog, and don't kill you at all. When people look at it, why do you have to protect this wicked woman?"

Li Zhou instinctively wanted to refute, but stopped immediately when the words came to his lips.

If you refute here, wouldn't you be in the middle of this woman's trick and let her grasp the evidence that she is the Lan family?

Li Zhou didn't make a sound, the smile on the corner of his mouth remained the same.

"Don't try to get any answers from my mouth." Chu Zhou's eyes sharpened, and he was about to bite the poison sac hidden in his mouth.

Wu Xianrong realized what she was about to do, and immediately clasped her chin forcefully to prevent her from biting.

"Hmm..." Chu Zhou was in a stalemate with her. Naturally, Wu Xianrong couldn't let the key person who had finally obtained him die just like this. He must squeeze more useful clues from her.

Wu Xianrong took a deep breath, opened her mouth with his fingers, and forcibly took out the poison sac.

Chuzhou's jaw was in severe pain and he coughed continuously, and Wu Xianrong also exhausted his last bit of strength.

Wu Xianrong's consciousness became more and more blurred, and with the last bit of willpower, she took a look at Li Zhou.

Unexpectedly, the last person she saw before she died was this little thief.

Wu Xianrong slowly fell on the ground, and when she was hazy, she thought of Wu Xianyi.

"Wu Xianyi..." She gritted her teeth, "The relationship between you and my sister is over, why are you still pestering me..."

When Li Zhou heard her words, his eyes suddenly focused, as if returning to the light.

Wu Xianyi?Sisterhood?

Wu Xianyi only has one direct sister, and that is Chilian's wife Wu Xianrong!

He is a great benefactor who has great kindness to Longzhou!

Chu Zhou immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and turned Wu Xianrong's head to her.

At this moment, Wu Xianrong had fallen into a coma, with his eyes still slightly open.

Although I met him twice, but the first time I couldn't get a good look at Wu Xianrong.And this second time, Li Zhou was seriously injured, so he didn't have the energy to look at her face.

At this time, carefully pondering in front of the faint light of the sky lantern, it is indeed...it is Wu Xianrong, the lady of Chilian!

That's right, Mrs. Chilian is holding a whip, and this person's weapon is also a whip. Chu Zhou hates himself, why didn't he think of it!

Wu Xianrong once beat a heartbroken man to pieces with a snakeskin whip. What the heartbroken man failed was the fifth lady who helped Lian Zhou to bury his mother and raised her.

When Lian Zhou was five years old, her only relative died. She guarded her mother's body for several days. She had no money on her body and could not be buried.

Seeing that she was pitiful, Wu Niangzi bought a thin coffin for five hundred Wen and buried her mother.She remembered this kindness and served by Wu Niangzi's side ever since.

Wu Niangzi asked her to practice martial arts diligently, saying that there would be major tasks to be done by her in the future.

When Li Zhou was 15 years old, she was so good at lightness kung fu that Wu Niangzi gave her to a female official surnamed Lan as a flattering gift for her use.

The female officer surnamed Lan is Lan Wan.

Although he is already the secret guard of the Lan family and works for the Lan family, Li Zhou still misses Fifth Lady very much and visits her whenever he is free.

For Li Zhou, Wu Niangzi is her own sister.

The good times didn't last long, the family of Wu Niangzi suffered a huge change, the family wealth was wiped out, and both Ye Niang died, and the originally arranged marriage was also rejected.

The heartbroken man was none other than Xiang Erlang, the ninth-rank official who had pursued Wu Niangzi for a long time before, and exhausted all means to make Wu Niangzi fall in love with her.

Because the marriage was pushed away and the family suffered a catastrophe, Wu Niangzi couldn't bear the blow and became a little crazy.

Lian Zhou hated this betrayer in his heart, but Lan Wan didn't let her do it, so she must not show up and expose herself, lest people would find out when she was doing important things in the future - after all, Lan Wan is her master now, She needs to fully obey the command of the Lord.

Wu Niangzi met Xiang Erlang by chance in the busy market, and she caught up with him and asked Xiang Erlang when he would marry her. Then Xiang Erlang fell in love with a rich girl at this time, how could he marry a crazy girl?It was shameful even for her friends to find out about it, so they threw her down in the street and insulted her for being a beggar who would recognize her indiscriminately.

Wu Niangzi followed him silently, reluctant to leave, and Xiang Erlang beat her to death, almost beating her to death.

Fortunately, he was bumped into by Wu Xianrong who was passing by.

When Wu Xianrong heard what Xiang Erlang had done, he was furious and beat him up in the street.

Xiang Erlang was beaten to bed for two months, and then Wu Xianrong found a place to live for Wu Niangzi, and paid some silver taels for monthly visits, and Chu Zhou also knew about it.

Li Zhou's identity is special and cannot be exposed in front of others, so he rarely has close contact with Wu Xianrong.But she has always remembered the title of Mrs. Chilian

I didn't expect... to inadvertently make my benefactor suffer!

Long Zhou regretted it so much!

Why wasn't it discovered earlier? !

Is there still time now?

Li Zhou immediately smeared a lot of blood from his leg on his fingertips, ignoring the pain in his heart when the wound was torn apart, he struggled vigorously towards Wu Xianrong.

Holding Wu Xianrong in his arms, he wiped the blood from his fingertips on her lips.

"Quick... swallow it quickly."

Hongyanku is the poison that Chuzhou took Lan Wan's order and tempered for a long time.

This poison is extremely ferocious, and there is no medicine to cure it, but in order to leave a way out for herself, Lan Wan refined Li Zhou to become a medicine man.

There is no medicine in the world to cure the beauty's dryness—except for the blood of the boat.

Li Zhou's blood is the antidote.

But at this moment, Wu Xianrong had already fallen into a deep coma. Even though the blood had been smeared on her lips and teeth, she couldn't complete the swallowing movement on her own, and it didn't have any effect.

Li Zhou was so anxious that he had no choice but to bite his arm hard, sucking all the blood in, and after saying "I'm sorry" three times in his heart, he opened Wu Xianrong's lips with his lips and dissolved the antidote into her. in the mouth...

Familiar with the roads in this area, Tang Jianwei easily escaped the patrol.

She returned to the place where the sixth prince was killed and Wu Xianrong disappeared, and carefully climbed up to the roof. In order to avoid being discovered, she walked lightly on the roof with a low body.

When she found a pool of blood, she knew that this was the place where the sixth prince was killed.

She looked around, and there were signs of fighting where roof tiles were overturned, which was normal.

However, one edge collapsed so badly that it seemed that the entire roof had been smashed through.

Tang Jianwei lay down here and looked down, only to see a courtyard below, basically he couldn't see anything in the pitch-black courtyard, but what was quite strange was that he could see a little moonlight yellow light.

What's up with this light?

Tang Jianwei took a closer look and saw...

Is this the light of a sky lantern?

Could it be that Ah Zi fell down?Probably!

Tang Jianwei immediately cheered up, and carefully went to the edge of the roof, trying to find a tree and climb down along the trunk.

"Who!" Someone called out to her in the darkness.

Tang Jianwei paused instinctively, but she seemed to have heard this voice somewhere before, and it was a little familiar.

"Wu Yushi? Are you Wu Yushi Wu Mingyan?"

"You are... Tang Sanniang?"

The people in the yard recognized Tang Jianwei hesitantly, and it turned out that this person was Wu Mingyan.

"Why is Yushi Wu here?"

"I still want to ask you, Tang Sanniang, why are you on the roof?"

At this time, the sky was gradually turning white, and the eyes that had been accustomed to the darkness were assisted by bright light, so they could see things in front of them more clearly.

This was a courtyard full of signs of ruin. Wu Mingyan was holding a sword tightly in his hand. He seemed to have just climbed over the wall and sprained his ankle, shaking his leg.

"I'm here to find Azi."

"Me too!" Wu Mingyan said anxiously, "I didn't look for her all night, and almost searched the whole Boling and found no one, but I was so worried. I told her not to take risks, She just didn't listen! Now it's all right! Everyone is gone! I heard that Azi was fighting with thieves on the roof before, and it took me a long time to find this suspicious place!"

Tang Jianwei: "Look at that light, it should be a signal from A Zi, but unfortunately it was blocked. Wu Yushi, come here and do me a favor."

"what?"

"I want to come down, you give me a hand."

Wu Mingyan still finds it strange that this Tang Sanniang has always walked like the wind, and she looks like a person with martial arts skills. Why is she so embarrassed on the roof now, and she needs my help when she wants to get down?

Wu Mingyan just got this thought when Tang Jianwei climbed to the treetop closest to the eaves with his slightly protruding belly.

"I'm coming down now, Wu Yushi will help me."

"You...you're pregnant?! Are you still coming down? Are you crazy!?"

Just as he was talking, Tang Jianwei slid down deftly along the tree trunk. Wu Mingyan was so scared that his face turned pale, and immediately went up to meet her.

No one followed, Tang Jianwei stood firmly by himself.

"It's not bad, it's lighter than I thought." Tang Jianwei rubbed his belly in satisfaction, "Good boy, did you startle me?"

Wu Mingyan: "..."

For so many years in Boling, Wu Mingyan has heard a lot about Tang Jianwei's deeds. It is said that this man has been restless since he was a child.

"Is there anyone—is there anyone—"

A few cries for help came from behind them, as if they were coming from the ground.

Tang Jianwei and Wu Mingyan immediately searched for the sound and left.

……

When Lu Lanxin returned to the Lu Mansion, her steps were heavy, and her footsteps were restrained by pain, but there was still a happy smile on her lips.

"Ashin."

A suppressed angry voice came from in front of her, and Lu Lan raised her head to see that it was her, Lan Niang.

"Lan Niang." Lu Lan stepped forward to salute, just as she raised her arm, Lan Wan slapped her hard on the face, causing her fair face to swell immediately.

The corner of Lu Lan's heart, which was still smiling just now, was torn, and scarlet blood immediately leaked out.
