A drawing is held in such high regard.
Bai Song was a little flattered. He had originally thought of various ways to meet the leader, but unexpectedly, he was able to complete it ahead of time due to this method.
After Bai Song left, he returned to his room. Huo Fenghuang had prepared various medicines. He wanted to calm down and study Baihua Pills.
After taking Baihua Pills, Bai Song felt occasional abdominal pain. It seemed that the drug was indeed quite toxic.
Studying Baihua Pills is not only for the antidote, but also a way to understand the leader of the Holy Lotus Sect.
Bai Song didn't want to stay in the Holy Lotus Sect for too long. As long as he could see the leader, he would find a way to get rid of him.
Bai Song didn't know martial arts, so all he could think of was poisoning if he wanted to kill someone.
Since the leader of the Holy Lotus Sect can prepare Baihua Pills, he must be an expert in using poisons. By studying Baihua Pills, Bai Song can understand the details of the opponent a little bit. When dealing with people who use poisons, you cannot do it casually, otherwise not only will you not be able to succeed, He will also expose himself.
After several days of research, Bai Song had more than 95% understanding of the ingredients of Baihua Pills.
But the remaining five percent is the key. Among them, several key flowers and plants are unknown. More importantly, the source of the poison has never been understood. Currently, we can only prepare some inhibitory drugs, but there is no way to eradicate them.
The antidote has not yet been found, but Bai Song discovered a poisonous elixir.
In the room where Huo Fenghuang kept medicine, Bai Song found some castor beans.
This is a relatively rare traditional Chinese medicine, and it is also the raw material for the world's most famous toxin, ricin.
As a modern person, even if you don't understand medicine, you are probably familiar with ricin.
In the 1978 Umbrella Murders in the UK, the culprit was ricin.
Ricin is so toxic that there is currently no antidote. It is also hidden, colorless and odorless, and the dose is very small, making it difficult for even experienced experts to detect it. Ricin has appeared in many movie stories and has been involved in many major political murders in world history.
Most modern people choose ricin for poisoning, which shows its practicality in poisoning.
The key ricin first appeared in the residue after castor oil refining, and castor oil refining technology first appeared in the West.
In other words, in the fifth year of Zhenguan, ricin had not yet appeared in the world, and castor beans were mainly used in traditional Chinese medicine.
Thinking of this, Bai Song had an idea.
What we are waiting for now is for the leader of the Holy Lotus Sect to appear.
But before the leader appeared, something new happened at Mingjian Villa.
…
This is the sixth day that Huo Fenghuang went to take care of Li Miao.
Bai Song has obviously gained more trust from the Holy Lotus Sect.
Bai Song was planning to go for a walk outside the villa. He said he was going out to collect herbs in the mountains, but in fact he wanted to meet Li Miao.
Hearing that Li Miao had recovered a lot and could speak simply, Bai Song felt that it was necessary to meet with his uncle to avoid misunderstandings.
But today, security inside and outside the villa is tight, and no one is allowed to go out.
Bai Song was taking advantage of being valued now, and was about to argue with the disciples of the Villa. He didn't want to see the Holy Lotus Sect disciples coming later, saying that he wanted Bai Song to go to the main hall to discuss matters.
Bai Song felt something was wrong in the atmosphere, so he went to the main hall of the main courtyard as promised.
In the hall, the main members of the Mingjian Villa and the Holy Lotus Sect were already in place, and their expressions were very serious. It was obvious that something had happened.
Huo Fenghuang glanced at him, winked at Bai Song, and motioned for him to come over and stand next to him.
Bai Song went over and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Huo Fenghuang's expression was serious: "You will know later of course."
At this moment, Mr. Mo was sitting in the guest seat. Seeing that the person had already expired, he said: "Comrades, I have just received news that Li Jing, the Minister of the Ministry of War, has learned that his grandson is trapped in Mingjian Villa, and has ordered five thousand elites to change their route on the way back to Beijing. We are heading towards Mingjian Villa. If the news is correct, we will arrive in two days. Everyone, please tell us how to deal with it."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed.
Who is Li Miao?
Isn't he the soldier who was captured, tortured and then killed?
Both parties knew Li Miao's identity, but they didn't expect Li Jing to react so quickly!
And it was even more unexpected that Li Jing would get the news so quickly.
Less than ten days have passed, and Li Jing's army is only two days away from Mingjian Villa?
How can this be?
If he had known this earlier, he would not have killed him so hastily.
It's fine now. Li Jing probably thought that his grandson was just arrested. When he arrived, he found out that he had actually been killed. How could the Jianshan Villa survive?
The village owner's face was ashen, and his brows were filled with worry.
Even the young master of the village, who never attends such meetings, was present. This shows how big the crisis is for Mingjian Villa this time. !
Those were five thousand elite soldiers who had just withdrawn from the front line after fighting for a year, at the height of their popularity.
These martial arts people, no matter how powerful they are individually, will not be enough to see soldiers who are good at team fighting on the battlefield.
And the entire Mingjian Villa has less than 150 people in total. How to deal with dozens of times more enemies?
After hearing the news, no one spoke.
The atmosphere was extremely depressing.
After a long time, Mr. Mo looked at the owner of the village and said, "Brother Shangguan, seeing that the enemy is approaching fiercely, we should take the initiative to avoid it."
"Avoid it?" The village owner's face darkened and he asked, "How to avoid it?"
"Brother Shangguan should take his disciples and leave Mingjian Villa first along with the comrades from the Holy Cult. After the limelight is over, we can find another way out."
"My name, Mingjian Villa, has been established for decades, and there has never been a time when I abandoned the village and left. If I leave now and let the court's hawks and dogs come in and do whatever they want, how can I, Shangguan guest, have the face to face the ancestor who founded the sect?"
"But if Brother Shangguan insists on staying, how can he face Li Jing's five thousand elites? Confronting them is like hitting an egg with an egg against a stone. Don't act out of anger."
The village owner was silent, wondering what he was thinking.
At this time, the elder of the villa on one side couldn't help but said: "Master, as the saying goes, if you can leave the green hills without worrying about having no firewood, why not..."
"Shut up, you can't leave at all! I want to live or die with the Villa!"
Seeing the owner of the village being so decisive, people around him were talking a lot.
The guardian on the other side of the guest seat stood up and reminded: "Even if the owner of the village does not think about himself, he still needs to think about the hundreds of disciples under his disciples. Do you just want to see them die in vain?"
The elders all agreed: "Yes, Shangguan, we all know that you are loyal to Zhuangzi, but you cannot ignore the lives of your disciples. The disciples are still young and they still have great years to live."
Hearing this, the village owner lowered his head in embarrassment. Obviously, this was something he was worried about.
After a long silence, the village owner finally nodded in embarrassment: "That's all, let the disciples go!"
As soon as these words came out, both Mr. Mo and the Protector showed imperceptible smiles on their faces.
At this moment, a discordant voice suddenly appeared in the field.
A young man stood up and shouted: "No!"
I looked around and found that the person speaking was Shangguan Xiu, the young master of Mingjian Villa.
Shangguan Xiu is a junior, but he is also the young master of the villa. In addition, he has a high reputation among his disciples, so his words are quite weighty.
Everyone looked at him, obviously wondering why the young master suddenly spoke.
Shangguan Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly, with a fierce aura, staring at the protector of the Holy Lotus Sect, and said solemnly: "No one of the disciples of the Villa can leave!"
"Young Master, don't act out of anger." The protector reminded him in a low voice.
Shangguan Xiu sneered: "People from the Holy Lotus Sect, please stop pretending in front of me! My father has friendship with you, but I don't! Don't try to trick me with your tricks to deceive my father!"
"My dear nephew, what do you mean by this?" Mr. Mo couldn't help but ask.
Shangguan Xiu whispered: "It was your idea to kill Li Miao, but it was our Mingjian Villa who suffered the consequences! How many things has my father done for your Holy Lotus Sect because he misses his old friendship? But you repay kindness with hatred! You know that Li Miao is a member of the Ministry of War The grandson of Shang Shu Li Jing wants to attack the Mingjian Villa. Now he has received the news so quickly that we, the disciples of the Villa, are asked to abandon the Villa. I am afraid that if our disciples had not left the Villa, in a few days they would have become you. A follower of the Holy Lotus Sect!"
"My nephew, what you said is a bit too much." Mr. Mo frowned and explained nicely, "Killing Li Miao is indeed a bit rash, but it was also in front of your father, and your father has no objection. Li Miao is Li Jing. His grandson, Li Jing is now a hero of the imperial court. Killing Li Miao is tantamount to dealing a head-on blow to Li Jing. It will dampen the imperial court's spirit no matter what. Moreover, the Holy Lotus Sect and Mingjian Villa are both against the imperial court. How can we distinguish each other?"
"Old Mo, you are wrong. It is true that you are against the imperial court, but you and I will always have to separate. The Holy Lotus Sect has its own way, and the Mingjian Villa has its own way. As long as I, Shangguan Xiu, can stay in one day , we will not let our disciples become traitors, let alone join the Holy Lotus Sect. If Li Jing really comes with troops, I, Shangguan Xiu, am willing to lead all the disciples of Mingjian Villa to kill the enemy and die."
Shangguan Xiu spoke extremely firmly, which made everyone present look unhappy.
Elder Mo and the protector exchanged glances, the owner of the village looked livid, and all the elders looked anxious.
Someone was about to speak, but was interrupted by Shangguan Xiu: "Everyone, if anyone wants to leave, they can leave. I, Shangguan Xiu, will never stop him. But I believe that the disciples of Mingjian Villa will not be greedy for life and afraid of death."
With that said, Shangguan Xiu walked out of the living room and shouted in front of all the disciples in the courtyard: "Who is willing to follow me to fight against the court's eagle dogs!"
After Shangguan Xiu finished speaking, dozens of disciples in the field raised their arms and shouted: "We are willing to follow the young master!"
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Xiu just said a word, and the disciples of Mingjian Villa were united as one.
Even Bai Song found it incredible. Only now did he understand why the Holy Lotus Sect must find a way to talk through this young master.
Seeing this scene, the owner of the village smiled bitterly and looked at Mr. Mo and the protector: "You two have also seen it. This is the choice of Mingjian Villa. You can escape as much as possible. If Mingjian Villa can stay in If you survive after this incident, you must deliver enough weapons to the Holy Lotus Sect as agreed."
