Lord, he teased me again

Chapter 159

Baique received a signal from Xia Jingrong last night.

He and Bai Shubing parted ways, and led the people around the mountains all night, but they didn't find Qingxuan and the others.

In a hurry, he had no choice but to ask the birds in the mountain for help, and then followed the clues to find the neighborhood.

Until dawn, I finally touched it.

Honeysuckle came with him.

Liandong walked in front of Qingxuan, and immediately knelt down: "Master, forgive me, this subordinate is late."

Qing Xuan pulled her up: "It's none of your business."

The incident happened so suddenly last night, even Xia Jingrong didn't expect that someone would lie in ambush here.

Whether it's Qingxuan or Xia Jingrong, yesterday they came to the mountains to look for herbs, purely with the mentality of trying their luck.

No one thought that the other party might have deliberately set this trap in order to lure her into the bait.

Of course, the fake plague was definitely not aimed at her, and it should be a coincidence to bring her along.

Bai Que first went to complain to his Highness, and then came to apologize to Qing Xuan: "Sister Fairy, I'm sorry, we haven't found this place after searching for most of the night, and Bai Shu still doesn't know where to go in circles. It's too big..."

Qingxuan thought for a while, and couldn't help but understand.

In fact, I can’t blame Baique and the others for not being able to provide support in time, but, she found it following the smell of medicinal herbs. After walking in the mountains for several hours, Baique and the others had no clue at all. No, it is not easy to find them at dawn.

"Okay, we're all fine, let's go, let's get rid of the fake plague of the villagers first."

According to Xia Jingrong, there is more than one village that has been poisoned now, and it must be resolved quickly, otherwise they will be mistaken for a plague, and they will be in trouble.

A group of people hurried out of the mountain, and before they had time to rest, Qingxuan began to direct the trail leader who followed her down the mountain to decoct the medicine.

...

Night falls.

In a courtyard in the capital, the man leaned on a recliner, half closed his eyes, and listened to the report of the man in black next to him.

"Two assassinations, both failed?"

His voice sounded a little careless, making it impossible to guess whether he cared or didn't care.

The man in black standing beside him was sweating from the brows.

Thinking of the scene he went to check today, I still have lingering fears.

They sent three groups of people to ambush Qingxuan and Xia Jingrong.

In the first wave last night, some were killed by long swords, and some were killed by poisonous needles, which sealed their throats with blood.

They quietly checked the corpse last night, but they couldn't find where Qingxuan and Xia Jingrong had gone, so they didn't move the scene.

Then another group of people was sent to search nearby while ambushing.

As a result, the next day, when they rushed over without receiving any news, they were lying on the ground...

Even though he has led the dead for many years, this is the first time he has seen such a bloody method. The people who did it were disorderly, as if they were tearing those people to pieces with their hands. Like a beast.

There were even a few corpses, all of which had been drained of blood... They looked horrific.

Thinking of this, the fear in his heart spread again, and he knelt down with a "plop":
"Master, this subordinate feels... that group of people this morning, I'm afraid, I'm afraid they died at the hands of human beings."

"Oh? What is that?"

"Subordinate, this subordinate suspects... yes, it's a beast."
