The reason why his expression suddenly changed when he heard the words 'goose-flavored persimmon' was due to the Book of Ten Thousand Poisons that he had read.
It has been recorded above that several combinations of poisons can kill mortals by mixing ordinary vegetables with food. One of them is goose meat and persimmon, which is extremely poisonous.
If a mortal consumes no more than two sticks of incense, his soul will definitely return to Jiuquan.
Of course, there is no solution. As long as the patient is treated promptly with special and mutually exclusive foods, there is a possibility of recovery.
But there are not many such opportunities, because the combined poison will be gone if it doesn't come, and it will be extremely fast and violent. Once the best rescue opportunity is missed, even if it is incompatible, it will be powerless.
Lu Li began to suspect that Xiao Ling was deliberately using this to kill him, and couldn't help but become furious.
But later when she saw that Xiaoling had also been tricked, she realized that the other party probably didn't know the key. Otherwise, even if they wanted to harm her, she wouldn't need to try it herself.
However, this girl had a sudden idea and came up with such a weird dish, which made Lu Li feel a little strange. There are thousands of recipes in the world, so there is no such thing as a coincidence, right?
"Hey! I really don't know what you think."
Lu Li looked back and sighed secretly. He got up and went to the kitchen to boil a pot of hot water. After it cooled down, he fed him some and then continued to wait quietly.
And this time, more than two hours have passed.
It was not until evening that Xiaoling finally coughed lightly and slowly opened her eyes. Just when she wanted to move, she realized that she was tied to the bed by Wuhuada.
I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment: "Sir, I..."
"Are you okay?"
Lu Li was burying his head in a daze. When he saw this, he quickly untied him, "You just had cramps all over your body. I had no choice but to tie you up."
"Thank you, sir, for saving me. What happened just now? I feel like I'm about to die..." Xiao Ling still felt sore at the moment and tried to sit up.
Lu Li reached out to help him and let him lean gently against the bedside railing, "You really don't know?"
Xiaoling shook her head weakly, "I suddenly felt that my head went blank, and then my whole body was in severe pain, and I don't know the rest."
As he said that, he felt sticky on his neck and chest again. When he turned his head and looked, he realized that it was all thick mung bean soup. "I, did I throw up? I'm sorry, I soiled Mr.'s bedding." Already..."
"It's been so long and I still think about this."
Lu Li was a little speechless, and then he told him about the power of goose-flavored persimmons, and explained to him why there was mung bean soup everywhere on the bed.
After hearing this, Xiao Ling immediately understood why Lu Li was so angry before, and regretted, "Xiao Ling knows that he was wrong and is willing to be punished by sir."
"Okay! It doesn't look like you did it on purpose. Just be careful next time and don't mess around with everything. If I weren't around, I'm afraid you wouldn't be so lucky." Lu Li didn't want to pursue this matter anymore. .
"Yes, Xiaoling remembered it. This is all the fault of Sister Qiaoer. If she hadn't said that goose meat fried in persimmons can replenish blood, I wouldn't have cooked such a strange dish. Now I can't help sir. On the contrary, I almost hurt you. I have to ask her for an explanation one day." Xiaoling agreed obediently, but said a little angrily.
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Lu Li suddenly frowned, "What do you mean, Sister Qiao'er?"
"Sir, what you don't know is that Sister Qiao'er is a maid in Ying Mansion. Her real name is Lin Qiao'er. She is from the same village as me and we grew up together. We have a very good relationship.
I happened across this when I was shopping for food today. She told me that goose meat fried between persimmons can replenish blood and is very beneficial to people with deficient qi and blood. So I bought it out of curiosity and wanted to replenish it for you, sir. .
Moreover, I personally ate one before and it was quite delicious and there was no problem, so I dared to serve it to my husband. I never expected that in the end..."
Xiaoling was feeling angry, blaming herself, and a little scared. If Lu Li hadn't rescued her in time, she would probably be dead by now.
Lu Li fell silent after hearing this. After a while, he stood up and said, "You should rest for a while. I'll go sit outside."
After saying that, he walked out of the bedroom and walked into the courtyard with a deep frown.
It seems that this search is really not easy.
He actually came up with such a way to deal with himself.
Lu Li didn't think that all this was done unintentionally by the maid named Qiao'er. It must have been secretly instigated by Ying Xun or Wang Hetai.
"Okay, since you are so impatient, let me practice with you." Suddenly, a cold light flashed in Lu Li's eyes, and he walked slowly towards a corner of the courtyard.
Then he jumped up and landed on the roof lightly without making any noise.
This is the benefit brought by the talent of speed. After being light, one can easily jump up to a height of two feet.
On the roof, Lu Li took advantage of the slightly dim night to carefully move to the back of the house, then jumped down, landed in the alley behind, and walked quickly towards the distance.
Half an hour later, Lu Li sneaked into a closed clothing store, took a set of black night clothes from inside, and dressed himself up.
Immediately, he sneaked into a grocery store and secretly took away a half-foot-long dagger and put it on his waist. Then he took advantage of the darkness and lurked in the direction of Yingfu.
After a while, Lu Li came to the high wall behind Ying Mansion, jumped lightly, and landed on the roof.
He looked down and saw that the layout inside was very similar to his own mansion, but on the verandah around the courtyard, there were far more guards than in his mansion, a total of sixteen people.
Moreover, the verandah was brightly lit, and it looked like it was heavily guarded. There was absolutely no place to hide.
Lu Li frowned and gave up his plan of flying down to the courtyard from here. Instead, he jumped down again and followed the high wall to the front door of Ying Mansion.
At the gate, two guards were chatting and laughing to relieve their fatigue. Suddenly, he saw a man in black who was wrapped up with only his eyes walking towards him. His expression changed and he started to scold him.
But unexpectedly, before they could speak, the man in black took the lead. The dagger in his hand flashed with cold light, and in an instant he came to the guard on the right. With a pull, the guard fell to the ground.
The other man was so horrified that he turned around and ran away.
But just as he started to move, Lu Li's dagger suddenly penetrated the back of the man's head, and he also fell to the ground.
Lu Li dragged the two corpses into the inner courtyard without any trouble, threw them on the ground, then slowly closed the door and walked towards the inner courtyard unhurriedly.
"who!"
It wasn't until Lu Li walked around the screen wall that the two guards at the courtyard entrance noticed him. They suddenly screamed in surprise and prepared to draw their knives to fight the enemy, but before the two of them took their knives out of their sheaths, Lu Li's dagger had already cut their necks.
In an instant, blood poured in!
"There's an assassin!"
"Come here, there's an assassin!"
Suddenly, there were bursts of screams and sounds of drawing knives on the courtyard verandah.
At the same time, there was a crunch, and a bearded man in underwear rushed out of the room with a long knife in his hand, roaring like thunder, "Who is so bold, how dare you break into my commander's house!"
"You're the one I've been waiting for!"
Seeing Ying Xun, the man in black's eyes turned cold. He stepped on the floor suddenly and shot towards Ying Xun like an arrow. At the same time, he held the dagger behind his back and struck hard at Ying Xun's neck!
