Chapter 198 Poison

It had actually started raining when the group arrived. They were not as lucky as Li Ming, who found a place to stay before the rain. So they were actually walking through the mountains when it was about to rain. They walked for a while and got wet in the rain for a while before they found this place.

Therefore, except for the two women, everyone else was actually soaked. Although the two women had umbrellas to cover their heads, the rain came quickly and suddenly, and they were actually wet too, but not as wet as the others.

It is early summer now, but the rain does not bring any sense of stuffiness, but instead a chill. Although they are all healthy people in the martial arts world, if it continues like this, they might catch a cold or even pneumonia.

The leader was also very experienced and quickly organized others to start a fire. However, the firewood they found was all wet, so they borrowed some dry firewood and flames from Li Ming and started a fire in no time.

Then they made a simple rack with the existing materials, and several people took off their clothes and roasted them on the fire.

Everything was normal, but when they started taking off their clothes, the woman in red suddenly screamed.

"Oh my, why are you taking off your clothes? Can't you see that the lady and I are still here?"

The man said somewhat awkwardly, "Everyone is soaked. If we keep wearing wet clothes, we'll get sick. Let them roast them. It's just outerwear anyway, so why not leave the underwear on? Miss Yiyi, please give us a favor."

The woman in red, known as Miss Yiyi, was relentless, saying, "You've gotten sick so easily, so all your martial arts training has been in vain? My young lady and I were both drenched, and I didn't say anything. Can't you, a bunch of grown men, just hold back? It's already annoying because of the inappropriate nature of sex, and now you're taking off your clothes. If this gets out, how will our young lady maintain her dignity? All of you, go sit with that monk and make room for us!"

The man frowned when he heard the sound, but he glanced at Li Ming and saw that he was calm, so he said, "The young master was here first, why is he being so unreasonable? Let's just squeeze in and leave when the rain stops."

The woman in red put her hands on her hips and said, "Huh, who came here first? Does this temple belong to him? He's just passing by. There are so many of us, but we only occupy half of the temple. He thinks he's right? If you ask me, you men should be on that side, and we women should be on this side. That's fair! Miss, don't you agree?"

When she said the last sentence, the woman in red turned sideways and lowered her head to speak to another woman in white who was wearing a veil.

It is true that this temple is not big, and it looks empty even when Li Ming is alone.

The woman in white frowned and thought for a moment, then waved to the woman in red and whispered a few words. After a moment, the woman in red muttered an order to the man.

The man's face looked unhappy, but he still sighed and walked towards Li Ming.

In fact, he himself was not willing to do so. As the saying goes, the world is dangerous, and the people you are most afraid of encountering are beggars, the elderly, children and monks.

Li Ming is not very old, and can barely be considered as a monk or a child. There is a black gold stick at his feet, which can be clearly seen when he enters the door. Facing a large group of strong men with weapons like himself, Li Ming has always maintained a calm and composed attitude, which shows that he is confident. If you say that this man has no ability, he himself will not believe it.

When you are out in the world, be careful and cautious at all times. This is the secret to living safely to this day.

So he actually didn't want to provoke Li Ming. He just hoped that the rain would stop soon so that he could take the two girls back to Jiuliancheng and everything would be fine.

But this girl Yi Yi has a hot temper, and the young lady grew up with her and obeys her every word. She has made things difficult for herself along the way, and now she even wants to squeeze out Li Ming's position. She feels uncomfortable, but she can only do as she is told.

Li Ming sat cross-legged, hearing every word clearly. As he watched the man approach him, he knew exactly what he was going to say. As expected, as he approached, he said, "Thank you, Master, for letting us in to take shelter from the rain. My name is Xu Xiao from Jiuliancheng. As you can see, we have women here with us. I wonder if you, Master, would be willing to make an exception."

Before Li Ming could answer, he took out another ten taels of silver and placed it in front of Li Ming, saying, "As long as the young master is willing, this is a small gift."

But Li Ming shook his head and said, "Buddha said: All beings are equal. In my eyes, there is no difference between men and women. Money is like dirt to me. Giving it away or not, in a single thought, can create a web of cause and effect. Amitabha."

So what does Li Ming mean by this? In plain words, it means, if I don’t allow you to do so, get out!

Xu Xiao sighed softly upon hearing this, turned around and walked away. The next moment, the woman in red started to yell at him.

"He's still not happy? He doesn't even want the money. I don't care. The lady and I are here. You guys figure it out. Just go over there!!!"

These men had no choice but to stand up one by one and look at Xu Xiao. Although Xu Xiao felt uncomfortable, he did not overstep his bounds. Instead, he stood in front of the statue, between the two fires, and forbade others to disturb Li Ming.

The behavior of the woman in red was almost barbaric. Li Ming was unhappy at the moment. Seeing the servant behave like this, it can be seen what kind of character the master has. Moreover, her young lady was right next to him but she did not come out to stop her, which shows what she was thinking.

Xu Xiao is a loyal and honest person, so let's take care of this trivial matter.

When Li Ming read this, his nose twitched twice and he counted to three silently in his heart.

"one two three"

Sure enough, seven or eight men fainted on the ground without any warning. Even Xu Xiao felt dizzy, but because of his strong internal strength, he did not fall to the ground immediately.

"Oh no!!" Xu Xiao sensed something was wrong and quickly pressed several acupuncture points on his body to temporarily stop the poison gas from flowing. He then shouted, "Be careful!"

But apart from him, there were only two or three people who could remain awake, so how could they be on guard?

"Ah!" The woman in red screamed, and then cursed, "Xu Xiao, is this how you protect my young lady? You bastard, look, that monk is fine, was he the one who poisoned him?"

Li Ming sat beside the fire, watching the flames dance, reflecting his face in varying shades of light, half warm firelight, half cold shadow.

You don't say, when this sentence was raised, Xu Xiao's face changed immediately, and he was full of suspicion towards Li Ming. After all, in this situation, everyone is suspicious, and Li Ming, a stranger, is undoubtedly the most suspicious!

Li Ming sighed and said, "If I were you, I wouldn't think like this, but would think about where the poison came from."

ps: Thanks to Yuxudie and Qianqiuwanzaiweiwoyaozi for their monthly tickets, thank you very much.
