After talking for a while, Zhou Xiaozhi opened the water bag and handed it to her father: "Dad, drink water."
Zhou Jiuzhong waved his hand: "I'm not thirsty yet, let Brother Lei drink!"
Zhou Xiaozhi responded and handed the water bag to Lei Xingkong: "Brother, drink some water!"
"Thank you Xiaozhi!"
Lei Xingkong smiled and thanked him, then took the water bag and took a sip into his mouth.
"Um?"
Before he could swallow the water, Lei Xingkong felt that his tongue was slightly numb, something wasn't right.
"This water...is poisonous?"
Lei Xingkong suddenly woke up, paused for a moment, and quickly spit the water aside.
Since the heart tempering was completed, his tongue has become a hundred times more sensitive to taste than ordinary people. If the toxins in the water were drunk in other people's mouths, they might not feel anything, but there was no "taste" in his mouth.
, he drank it as soon as he drank it.
He stuffed the water bag casually and put it aside. Lei Xingkong thought for a while and said to Zhou Xiaozhi: "Xiaozhi, the water in my water bag seems to have a strange smell. Give me the other one."
"Ah? Weird smell? Hmm...Brother, here you go!"
Although Zhou Xiaozhi was a little strange, she didn't ask any more questions and handed the other water bag to Lei Xingkong.
Lei Xingkong opened it and took another sip, feeling numb again on his tongue.
The water in the bladder is still poisonous.
After spitting out the water, Lei Xingkong frowned slightly. He no longer asked Zhou Xiaozhi for it, but went over to pick up the third water bag and took a sip.
This is the last water bladder on the carriage.
poisonous!
The three water bags on the carriage were all poisoned. The poisoner obviously wanted to poison all three of them to death.
"Who is it?"
Lei Xingkong turned his head and thought.
That day at the Qingtian City Station, an assassin wanted to kill him. Today, someone secretly poisoned the water bag. Who wanted to kill him?
Is it protecting the north? Jianzhong? Marquis of Jieyi?
If it weren't for these three families, then the only one who had enmity with him recently was Jin Hongwu.
But he and Jin Hongwu just had a small conflict. As for sending a killer or poisoning him?
After thinking for a while, I couldn't come up with a clue.
At this time, Zhou Xiaozhi asked from the side: "Brother, what's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this water?"
After coming back to his senses, Lei Xingkong thought for a moment, lowered his voice and said to Zhou Xiaozhi: "Xiaozhi, do you believe me?"
Zhou Xiaozhi nodded vigorously and said: "Believe! Apart from my father...oh, no, you are the best person in the world, just like my father."
Lei Xingkong put the three water bags into Zhou Xiaozhi's hands, and then whispered: "Pour all the water in these three water bags secretly, don't let anyone see it."
"Why is this?" The little girl was puzzled.
"Do not ask!"
Lei Xingkong said seriously: "If you believe me, just do as I say, and remember not to let anyone see you."
Zhou Xiaozhi heard this and agreed: "Okay, brother, I believe you and I will do as you say!"
After a slight pause, she dug out a smaller water bag from the pile of goods in the car: "Fortunately, there is another one."
Lei Xingkong took it and took a sip.
It was obvious that the water in this water bag was normal and had not been poisoned.
"Xiao Zhi is so smart!"
Lei Xingkong couldn't help but praise him, and then put the water bag back into the pile of goods before continuing to sit in front of the car and chatting with Zhou Jiuzhong.
The little girl picked up a poisonous water bag, sat behind the carriage, secretly opened the cork, and poured the water in the water bag along the carriage wheels little by little.
After pouring one water bag, pour another...
In the blink of an eye, all the water in the three water bladders was empty.
…
In the evening, the caravan checked into another inn.
This inn is also not big, but with the caravan members living in it, it is slightly rich...
After settling in properly, everyone in the caravan took a shower, chatted, and slept...
At this moment, a valuable carriage, surrounded by eight cavalry guards, arrived in front of the inn door.
"We want this courtyard, and everyone in it should come out!"
Four of the eight guards jumped off their horses very quickly, broke into the inn on their own, pointed to the largest courtyard in the inn, and started shouting.
"What happened?"
The movement here quickly alerted everyone in the caravan. They looked at the four guards one by one and whispered.
Lei Xingkong also followed behind everyone.
He recognized at a glance that two of the four guards were the Yulin Army he met at the inn the night before.
In other words, the young master and his Yulin army that I met last night also arrived at this inn.
"I've seen a good show. Well, I wonder who is more ruthless?"
Lei Xingkong turned his head and glanced at the courtyard.
There are only two independent courtyards in this inn, one is allocated to Deacon Li and his cronies, and the other is allocated to Jin Hongwen and other bodyguards.
The courtyard pointed by the Yulin Army in front of them belongs to Jin Hongwen and his friends.
Hearing the shouts of those Yu Lin soldiers, Jin Hongwen quickly led his people out.
"Oh, these are some military masters!" Jin Hongwen also recognized the two Yulin soldiers at a glance, and greeted them with his hands raised: "I don't know if you have any advice?"
The leader of the Yulin army waved his hands and said impatiently: "Stop talking nonsense and give up this courtyard quickly!"
Jin Hongwen frowned slightly and said, "Masters, we have already settled in this courtyard. There is another room over there. You can go there."
There is no longer a separate courtyard, but there are still a few rooms, enough for these Yulin troops to live.
"presumptuous!"
The Yu Linjun snorted coldly and said: "My young master has a noble status, how can he live in those rooms? If you are sensible, you should give up this courtyard as soon as possible, otherwise there will be no good fruits!"
Jin Hongwen's face darkened slightly and he said: "I have been in the Yulin Army before, and I hope some military masters can give me some face."
"Stop talking nonsense!" The Yulin Army directly drew the knife in his hand and said angrily: "No matter who you were in the past, please give up the courtyard quickly, otherwise don't blame us for being rude."
Jin Hongwen half-squinted his eyes as he looked at the Yulin Army. After pondering for a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, military masters, please wait a moment. We will free up the courtyard right now."
"You are smart!"
The Yu Linjun put the long sword back into its sheath, and without even looking at Jin Hongwen, he turned around and went back to report back to the young master.
On the side, everyone watching the excitement dispersed.
Jin Hongwen glanced at the carriage, turned to the people behind him and said: "You all heard it, go in and clean up immediately, and free up the courtyard."
The bodyguards agreed and went back to clean up.
Jin Hongwu looked angrily from behind and asked tentatively: "Brother, just let me out like this? How about..."
Jin Hongwen waved his hand and said in a cold voice: "The territory of Luohu Mountain will be reached in one day. We can't miss important events just because of our anger. Well, if we have the chance, we can kill them all together!"
Jin Hongwu understood it and said nothing more.
After thinking for a while, Jin Hongwen lowered his voice and asked: "Did that kid drink the venom of the hazy snake?"
Hearing this, Jin Hongwu smiled sinisterly and said proudly: "Brother, don't worry, I sent someone to take a look. The water bag in their car has been drank clean, and that kid must have drank it too."
"That's good!"
Jin Hongwen's eyes flashed, and he chuckled: "The poison of the hazy snake is colorless and odorless. I don't think that boy can detect it. As long as he drinks the poison, even gods will be unable to save his life."
