"Lao Qi, come in." The grim-faced Taoist priest thought about it and thought that he should tell Luo Lao Qi and the others that this is a life-threatening matter. Knowing it as early as possible is the best way to make plans, so he said to He Siniang: "I am a poor Taoist." Go call Senior Xiahou in, and you and the two of you can confirm it carefully. If you are really poisoned, be sure not to let them speak out...especially Lao Qi."
Luo Laoqi entered the stone house as he was told. The Taoist priest with a grimace asked him to go to He Siniang's side, and he ducked out of the doorway.
Once outside, the Taoist Ghostface quietly led Xia Houyun into the house. In order to prevent "others" from noticing, the Taoist Ghostface did not go in, but chose to guard the door with Xia Houxiang.
Xia Houxiang didn't know what happened yet, so he was confused when he saw this and said: "Taoist Master, what is in the stone house, and why is it so mysterious?"
The Taoist priest with a grimace glanced around and then whispered back: "Don't be surprised when you hear the following words. Your second uncle and Luo Laoqi seem to have been poisoned." The Taoist priest with a grimace didn't know whether Xia Houxiang understood what Gu was. To facilitate understanding, just call it poisoning.
Xia Houxiang's expression changed greatly when he heard this, but thinking of the Taoist priest's instructions, he suppressed himself from shouting. He just widened his eyes and asked, "What kind of poison? How could my second uncle Qiu Tianguan be poisoned?" ?!”
The Taoist Priest with a grimace suddenly remembered that the heavenly officials of the Xiahou family had been applying secret medicine to their bodies since they were young, and they seemed not to be afraid of poison. His move was just superfluous, so he could only reply truthfully: "It seems to be poison. You guys, Faqiu Tianguan, can’t even guard against poisonous spells, right?”
"That can't be...what?! My second uncle was bewitched?!"
"Keep your voice down!"
Xia Houxiang quickly covered his mouth and whispered: "Gu is a deadly thing, what should I do?! Will my second uncle be okay?!"
"We're not sure yet whether it's a poison, so don't worry. If it's really a poison, we can just find a way to find an antidote."
Even so, the grim-faced Taoist priests had no idea at all. They didn't even know where the poison came from, so how could they find the antidote? And how can we be sure that there is an antidote for this poison?
After a while, the three people in the stone house came out one after another.
When the grim-faced Taoist priest saw the expressions of the three of them, his heart immediately went cold. He Siniang was silent, while Xia Houyun's face was livid, and Luo Laoqi's face was full of anger, and he looked around with eyes wide open, as if he wanted to Killing the black hand hiding behind the scenes with his eyes.
He Siniang nodded to the grim-faced Taoist priest and said: "It's a poison, but I'm not sure what kind of concubine it is. Judging from the situation of Lao Qi and Senior Xia Hou, this kind of poison may come from It was infected from the wound.”
"Ah?!" The Taoist priest with a grimace was surprised.
He Siniang still didn't know why the grimace Taoist priest was surprised, and continued to explain: "What is obviously different from the three of us is that both Lao Qi and Senior Xia Hou have obvious injuries. Senior Xia Hou's shoulder was chopped by Wu Zi, while Lao Qi was injured in While fighting Shi Xin Po in the tunnel of the underground palace, my back accidentally hit the entrance of the underground tunnel, leaving a two-inch-long gash, so I concluded that the poison was most likely injected through the wound."
"Siniang, please don't scare this poor Taoist!" The Taoist priest with a grimace looked at his arms with a slightly panicked tone.
"Is it possible that the Taoist priest is also injured?"
"Pindao's arm was almost smashed into a sieve by Li Tianwen..."
"How did the Taoist priest react?"
"No…"
"Taoist Master, don't be afraid!" Luo Laoqi interrupted: "If you have any reaction, just say so. You won't die in a while."
"Get out of here, you're cursing the poor guy, hurry up and worry about yourself, you got into this kind of disaster for no reason."
"The Sa family will die if they die, but before they die, they have to be found by the Li Gou thieves, and their bodies will not be broken into thousands of pieces!"
"Can't you figure it out?" The Taoist priest with a grimace turned to look at He Siniang.
He Siniang shook her head: "I haven't figured out the type of voodoo yet, and I can't even find an antidote. But Lao Qi is right, this voodoo can't hurt lives for the time being. We can have time to look for clues."
Xia Houyun said: "I just feel itching on my forehead, and there is no other discomfort other than that. Why don't we continue on our way, even if we can't find the antidote in the end, at worst, we can take a detour to Tianji Temple to find Zhenren Xuanyun. Just help with the poison."
The Taoist priest with a grimace didn't rush to say anything when he heard this. He knew clearly in his heart that Xia Houyun entered the mountain this time with a certain death attitude. In order to find the Faqiu Golden Seal for Xia Houxiang, it didn't matter even if he got lost halfway, but what about himself? Can you risk Lao Qi's life? The Tianji Temple is thousands of miles away. If there is another delay in the city, causing Lao Qi to suffer some shortcomings, wouldn't he have to hold grudges for the rest of his life?
He Siniang didn't say anything at this time. She was a smart person and knew what the grimace Taoist was thinking, but it was not an option to keep the situation so frozen. She could still say some things by herself, so she had to say: "Taoist Master, we There is no way out. Now, if we look back, we may not be able to pass through the stone gate guarded by the beasts. I feel that it is better to sink the boat and move forward. Maybe when we find Li Tianwen, all the questions will be answered."
The Taoist Priest with a grimace looked at Luo Laoqi, who seemed to have not figured out the situation, and let out a long sigh. He didn't understand the current situation, but it was still too difficult to make some decisions. But at this time, Luo Laoqi spoke for the first time, What he said was surprising: "Taoist priest, please don't worry about the Sa family. Si Niang was poisoned at that time, so why not accompany us to the north and south? What should a man in the Sa family be afraid of? Let's continue to do business, or else give it to the people inside Drag Zongzi out and touch the baby?"
"What kind of treasure can the rice dumplings have if they die like that?" The grim-faced Taoist priest smiled, completely giving up the idea of retreating. When talking about the rice dumplings, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed in his mind, and he asked urgently: "Did you guys have any just now? Notice that the rice dumpling seems to have three eyes?"
"Ah?!" Xia Houxiang said in surprise: "Didn't you get it wrong again? Who can have three eyes?"
"I was just paying attention to the poisonous things, but I really didn't pay attention to the appearance of the rice dumplings."
Xia Houyun also shook his head, and Luo Laoqi scratched his forehead and said, "Sajiaguang saw the thief with a face that was so angry that he was as black as a donkey."
"No! This poor Taoist must have kept his eyes open this time!" The grim-faced Taoist priest said as he got into the doorway, and then a voice came from inside: "He really has three eyes! Come and take a look!"
After hearing the words, everyone hurriedly crowded into the stone house. The Taoist priest with a grimace held a torch. In front of him was Zongzi's face hanging upside down. On Zongzi's livid face, in addition to two angry eyes, there was actually one half-opened one. This vertical eye is located right in the middle of the forehead, almost making everyone think of those cricket statues on the bridge outside the city when they first saw it.
