098 Hit (second update)
(This is the second update. There was another update before. You guys missed it.)
Marquis Pingyang played with the teacup, "I wonder if the sword she used to stab me has been washed clean. If the snake king's poison has not been washed away, it must be very interesting to let her stab you."
The corner of Ling Yun's mouth twitched, he coughed again, stood up and walked away, "I still have a dose of medicine that I forgot to mix. I have to get it out quickly."
How could Pingyang Hou believe him, but when he saw Ling Feng coming, he knew something was wrong, so he let Ling Yun slip away, moved Ling Yun's tea cup away, replaced the clean tea cup, and poured new tea.
Ling Feng sat down on the stool and drank the tea in one gulp. Still not quenching his thirst, Marquis Pingyang poured him three cups of tea before he wiped the tea from the corner of his mouth with his sleeves. "The Marquis of Nanchao wrote a letter, saying about those Acacia springs. In order to 'conceal' people's eyes and ears, I was put around several times and finally entered Yanjing."
Pingyang Hou narrowed his eyes, "Can you find out who received the water in Yanjing?"
"Looking at his clothes, he looks like a big nomadic businessman." Ling Feng frowned.
Yanjing holds some large-scale business associations from time to time, and nomadic tribes from various places often come to exchange local products.
Some caravans are extremely large, but because the nomadic tribes have no fixed settlements, it is almost impossible to trace them.
Marquis Pingyang also frowned slightly, "Is the caravan still in the capital?"
Ling Feng looked a little embarrassed and shook his head, "There were many experts in that team. As soon as our talents got close, they were discovered and almost killed. We changed people and went back. That team had already brought water out. Come to Yanjing."
There was a chill in Pingyang Hou's eyes, "The water must still be in the middle of the capital." Mapo Town in front of Yanjing extends in all directions, and things coming from the Snake Country must pass through Mapo Town if they want to enter Yanjing. The water collector comes from elsewhere. He only needs to wait in Mapo Town, so why go to Beijing?
Ling Feng thought for a moment and figured out the mystery behind it, "I'll check it out later."
Marquis Pingyang nodded, "Did my second brother say when he would be back?"
Ling Feng's eyes darkened slightly, "The Marquis of Nanyang said that he wanted to walk around and not come back for the time being. He said that the debt has been paid off... It's fine for the daughter of the Feng family to live in peace. If she passes, the Marquis doesn't have to. Cherish."
The daughter of the Feng family relied on the brother-in-law of Pingyanghou and Qing to do whatever she wanted. Lingfeng had suffered enough. He really wished that Pingyanghou could find out the charming girl in the palace and kill her. See if she can still How to bring disaster to Yan country.
Marquis Pingyang raised his eyes and looked into the distance. Why didn't he want to look back?
In the next few days, Shiyi never saw Marquis Pingyang again, but was forced to learn how to serve her husband every day.
Mammy accepted Zhenniang's benefits, and she didn't care much about how well Eleven learned, so her teachings were just a formality. As long as Eleven sat there honestly, regardless of whether she read the scrolls or not, she didn't care at all. Pay attention.
Logically speaking, these days, the eleventh day is extremely easy.
But Eleven clearly felt that Pingyang Mansion was unconsciously trapped in a layer of shadow, and this shadow was getting thicker and thicker, as thick as if someone had died in the mansion.
Ever since it was confirmed that Marquis Pingyang was using dead bodies, Eleven tried his best to keep his ears to the outside.
But the flames soaring into the sky every day in the side courtyard made her feel upset.
Finally, he couldn't help but walk towards Pingyang Hou's dormitory.
When he arrived at the door, he was stopped by Ling Feng.
Ling Feng's face was very ugly, but he tried his best to be polite and said, "Master Hou is resting and it is not convenient to see Miss Eleven."
Eleven didn't want to force his way in, so he went around, thinking about finding a hidden place to climb in and explore the situation, but he was afraid of looking at something he shouldn't, so he hesitated for a moment.
At this time, there were rapid footsteps in the courtyard. Eleven huddled behind the flower tree, only to see the housekeeper leading several servants to carry out a quilt. The gray arms hanging outside the quilt were covered with bruises.
Eleven couldn't help but feel nervous.
Ling Feng's thick eyebrows were knitted into knots, he looked at Ling Feng who was slowly walking out from inside, and approached him, "How is the situation with Lord Marquis?"
Ling Yun looked solemn and shook his head, "It's very bad."
Ling Feng was a little anxious, "That girl has only been here for a few days, and the Marquis has not really touched her. How come she is like this before the new moon comes?"
Ling Yun sighed, "That evil fire is not something that ordinary people can bear. The one who can keep suppressing the evil fire like this is the only one in the world, Mr. Hou. And Mr. Hou does have intentions for that girl, and he hates and loves her at the same time. , Seeing her at this time, it is inevitable to trigger the suppressed evil fire. I just didn’t expect that the Marquis would be so obsessed with that girl. "
Ling Feng cursed secretly that beauty is a disaster, "That Shuo Yue..."
Ling Yun sighed softly, "The current method has little effect. Even if he has the courage of the Snake King, the Marquis will still live or die."
Ling Feng was slightly stunned, "We are divided between life and death. How can we say this?"
Ling Yun took a deep breath, and his face twitched slightly, "There is a half chance that the poison from the Marquis will be detoxified and he will survive; but there is another half chance that the poison in his body will collide with it and he will die."
Shiyi, who was huddled behind the flower tree, took a breath of air-conditioning. It was indeed too late.
Ling Feng became anxious, "So, Mr. Hou might not be able to survive the new moon?"
"If he is willing to use a living person to release some of the evil poison and no longer let the corpse poison deepen, things will turn around. But you know that this living person can only be used for seven days, and any woman under him will be dead within seven days. Because of dry bones... I'm afraid the Marquis won't..."
"That day there was a 'girl'."
Ling Yun shook his head, "The poison of the Snake King is extremely overbearing. It has to be cultivated in a woman's body for some time before her body can take the drug, so the poison can only be released in the last two days."
Ling Feng was confused when he heard this, "What will happen if it doesn't last seven days?"
"Backlash."
Eleven was stunned there, as if a sharp blade was slashing straight down from the tip of her heart. She could not help but tremble slightly in pain, her head was buzzing, and she stared at the Ling brothers slowly walking away. Far.
She couldn't hear the words behind her and wanted to follow, but now she had lost all her skills, and Ling Feng was a martial arts master.
She hid here without being discovered simply because Ling Feng was focused on Marquis Pingyang.
But if she followed him, he would definitely find her. She would have to wait for the two of them to go far away, turn out of the flower tree, and walk back in disaster.
The Ling brothers felt heavy and did not notice Eleven hiding behind the flower tree.
Ling Feng grabbed his brother's sleeve, "You have a way, right?" Based on his understanding of Ling Yun, if there was no way at all, he wouldn't be so calm.
Sure enough, Ling Yun sighed and said: "Girl Eleven has taken the courage of the Snake King's young snake, so she is not afraid of the Snake King's poison, but the Marquis will not touch her. Unless..."
"Tell me, as long as I can save the Marquis, I can do it even if I get beaten and scolded by him." Ling Feng curled his lips. This guy really had a plan. He was going around, wasn't he planning to take action?
Ling Yun raised his eyebrows and whispered into Ling Feng's ear. Ling Feng's eyebrows raised slightly higher and higher, and finally he couldn't help but laugh, "Sure, let's do it."
Eleven returned to the house, restless.
After midnight, it is the new moon.
If Marquis Pingyang cannot pass this hurdle, his subordinates will never let her and her mother go.
Although she was not afraid of death, her heart clenched tightly when she thought of her mother's situation.
Perhaps, while everyone is worried about Marquis Pingyang, we can try to escape from the house and rescue our mother...
As soon as my thoughts started to move, my heart felt like it had been whipped hard, and it hurt suddenly.
If you can't escape, there is no need to say what your fate will be. If you are lucky enough to escape, then Pingyang Hou...
In front of Eleven's eyes, Pingyang Hou's bottomless eyes and the familiar fragrance of white magnolia flowers appeared.
Thinking that he might die in Shuo Yue, I felt so mixed that I couldn't breathe.
He reached into his arms and held the jade bottle containing the Snake Emperor's gall. He hesitated for a while, then resolutely walked towards the door.
Before they even stepped out of the door, they saw the Ling brothers coming.
His lips pursed slightly, they came just in time.
Ling Feng looked at the small jade bottle on the table with bright eyes, "Is this really the courage of the Snake King?"
Eleven nodded, "It is indeed the courage of the Snake King."
Ling Feng retracted his gaze from the small jade bottle and looked at Eleven warily, "I'm afraid this thing can't buy your freedom."
Eleven didn't look disappointed and said calmly: "I know, I won't leave. I just want to ensure the absolute safety of my mother."
Ling Yun, who had been silent the whole time, pushed the small jade bottle back to Eleven, "We can't control the Marquis. There is only half a chance of this, so it's better for you to hand it over to the Marquis yourself."
Shiyi smiled bitterly, she underestimated their loyalty. In their minds, Marquis Pingyang was heaven, and they would not disobey Marquis Pingyang just to understand the 'medicine'.
Putting away the small jade bottle, I suddenly heard Ling Yun call, "Miss Eleven."
Eleven looked up and saw two halo-like things spinning in Ling Yun's pupils, and secretly said, "Not good."
Just as he was about to turn his eyes away, he saw the two haloes suddenly light up.
Eleven felt dizzy and his consciousness gradually blurred.
After a while, Ling Feng stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Eleven who was sitting there motionless, and asked in confusion: "Is this done?"
Ling Yun gave an instruction to Eleven with uncertainty, "Smile."
Shiyi smiled seriously, looking very charming.
Ling Feng stared at Eleven without blinking, "It looks like it's done."
Ling Yun raised his chin proudly, snapped his fingers, and ordered: "Come to me."
Eleven stood up and walked towards Ling Yun.
Ling Yun smiled broadly, "Come closer."
Shiyi really leaned into Ling Yun's arms softly and weakly.
Ling Feng shouted, quickly grabbed the cushion beside him and put it between Eleven and Ling Yun.
Eleven leaned on the cushion as soon as he leaned back, his expression was lazy and charming to the core.
Ling Yun clicked his tongue twice, "It's really a piece of shit." He threw away the cushion stuffed in front of his chest and said, "Kiss me."
As expected, Eleven came forward charmingly.
The Ling brothers looked at it, and even if they didn't have any other thoughts, their bones softened by three points.
Seeing the moment when Eleven was really about to kiss Ling Yun's face, Ling Feng kicked Ling Yun to the ground, leaving Eleven to kiss him, and glared: "You are crazy, this is the Marquis's treasure."
Ling Yun stared back, "What are you thinking? If you don't try, how will you know if she will be obedient? If the time comes, she will sit here like a piece of wood and everything will be over."
Ling Feng was dumb for a while and then snorted, "You can't touch this girl anyway."
