Chapter 162: What are you afraid of?
Yu Tang frowned and looked at Hao Jun.
"What are you afraid of in the end?"
Hao Jun looked at the girl with red eyes and answered Yu Tang's words in a solemn voice.
"The thing in her hand is plague!"
"What?"
Yu Tang's eyes fell on the glass bottle in the girl's hand, thinking that he heard wrongly.
"Plague? No...are you sure you're not joking? Even if you don't want us to embarrass her, there's no need to make up such a lame excuse."
Hao Jun tilted his head fiercely.
"I'm not lying. Don't you want to know her purpose of hiding in Xiaobeizhuang? If she doesn't tell you, I'll tell you that the thing in the glass bottle is a liquid developed by the Oriental people.
Once the liquid is spilled into the water, everyone in the village will be infected with the plague if they drink the water.
Or, if she spills some liquid on the ground now, and snakes, insects, rats, and ants crawl over the liquid, the plague will spread to the entire village.
Now because of me, she would rather disobey her father's order than harm the people in the village... Mrs. Xiao, if you have any problem with me, don't force her, just let her go."
When Hao Jun finished speaking, Yu Tang frowned and looked at the girl with a frown.
The girl stared at Hao Jun.
Her nails, painted with bright red cardamom, had already gently pushed the cork of the glass bottle open to create a gap.
But after listening to Hao Jun's words, she suddenly pressed the cork with her thumb, held the glass bottle tightly in her hand, and then looked at Hao Jun reluctantly.
"Brother Jun, for your sake, I won't do anything today, but... I'm sorry, there are some things I can't stop.
You listen to me, take your family and leave Xiaobeizhuang, the farther away the better, it’s best to leave today.”
After saying this, she dropped the word "take care" and jumped off the courtyard wall.
Yu Tang's expression changed slightly and he quickly chased after him.
But the girl had disappeared without a trace.
Yu Tang cursed in a low voice and stopped chasing. Instead, he turned around and went down to the cellar.
When Yun Er and others arrived after receiving the news from Li, Yu Tang happened to carry the unconscious Yun Yi out of the cellar.
"lady!"
"Boss Yun!"
Yun Er and the others exclaimed in surprise and hurried over.
"Madam, are you okay?"
Yu Tang was sitting next to the cellar, the wound on her waist opened again, but she said nothing, shook her head, and looked down at Yun Yi.
There was a shuriken stuck in Yun Yi's left shoulder. His face was black and his lips were purple. He was obviously poisoned.
But fortunately, his chest was still rising and falling slightly, and it was obvious that he was still breathing.
Yu Tang's voice deepened.
"Hurry up and take Yun Yi back to find your grandmother, Yun San, and take Hao Jun with you."
"yes!"
…
An hour later.
Zhu Ruoyi walked out of the room sweating profusely, and Yu Tang hurriedly spoke out.
"Grandma, how is Yun Yi?"
Zhu Ruoyi sighed.
"This is the first time I've encountered the poison in him. It's a bit troublesome. To eradicate it, I have to go back and study it. But don't worry. I gave him a needle for half an hour and gave him a Bailing Pill.
, he won’t die for the time being.”
Yu Tang's eyes darkened when he heard this.
Zhu Ruoyi was already very tired as he had to take care of the Supreme Emperor, worry about Xiao Yening, and have to give himself injections for two more days.
If Yun Yi is thrown to her again, her body will collapse from exhaustion.
After thinking about it, Yu Tang turned around sharply and looked at Hao Jun coldly.
"You have such a close relationship with that stinky girl. Do you know what kind of poison Yun Yi was poisoned with?"
Li, who was following, heard this and rushed forward, grabbing Hao Jun's arm.
"Jun'er, Mr. Yun has done us a great favor by helping to drive away locusts. If you know anything, please tell us quickly.
If, because of you, Mr. Yun is in trouble, the lives of your father and I will not be enough to compensate for it."
Mrs. Li cried bitterly.
Hao Jun quickly comforted her, and then took out a pink, neatly folded handkerchief from his arms.
He opened the veil and handed a pill wrapped inside to Yu Tang.
"Xiang'er gave this to me before. It was said to be life-saving in critical moments. I don't know what its use is. Take it and see if it's useful to Mr. Yun."
Zhu Ruoyi narrowed his eyes, stepped forward quickly, grabbed the antidote, and went back to the house to study it.
Yu Tang looked back at Hao Jun critically.
"Did you reveal our previous whereabouts in Baishui Town to the Dongyang people?"
Hao Jun shook his head.
"No, even at that time, I didn't know that she was also an Asian."
Yu Tang frowned.
"Then you went to Baishui Town on the same day as us. Is it a coincidence?"
"no."
Hao Jun was honest. After denying it, he confessed honestly without waiting for Yu Tang to ask again.
"On the day the second son of the Zhao family died, I came back to the house from working in the fields, and Xiang'er was in my house.
She said that three years ago she went to the mountains and met Zhao Laoer, who wanted to bully her. In order to preserve her innocence, she jumped off the cliff and was later rescued by a person from a passing escort agency.
She followed the escort to the south. It wasn't until the escort came to the north to escort the goods that she found the opportunity to come with me.
I didn't think much about it at first, but she wouldn't let me tell anyone about her return, and one night, she suddenly went out and didn't come back until very late.
She told me that she went to the back mountain to get some fresh air, but I found out that she lied because the mud under her feet was red. In the whole Xiaobeizhuang, only Mrs. Xiao had red mud near the small ditch outside the back window of your courtyard.
So I suspected that she was spying on you. That morning, when I learned that Mrs. Xiao was going out, I was afraid that something would happen, so I followed her in the name of buying seeds.
It wasn't until Mrs. Xiao was captured by the Japanese that I finally realized that she might be related to the Japanese.
I asked her when I came back, and she admitted it, saying that the person who rescued her at the foot of the cliff was actually her biological father, an Asian, and that she had been on Fufeng Island all these years.
The reason she came back this time was because her father wanted to occupy Xiaobeizhuang, so he intended to send people to spread the plague and kill all the people in Xiaobeizhuang.
She was afraid that if someone else came and Xiaobeizhuang would be unable to take precautions, she would suffer disaster, so she recommended herself.
She originally wanted to take us away quietly, but she discovered that there were Japanese people watching Xiaobeizhuang outside the village, so she did not dare to act rashly.
And no one thought that you would come to Xiaobeizhuang.
Her father kept urging her to take action, but she had no choice, so she negotiated terms with her father, using you in exchange for the lives of the people in Xiaobeizhuang."
After a pause, Hao Jun closed his eyes gently.
"Now that the Japanese people haven't caught you, she has been exposed. If she goes back, her father will definitely punish her...
And by letting us go, she was telling us that the Japanese might soon attack Xiaobeizhuang."
After Hao Jun finished speaking, Yu Tang looked stern.
At this moment, Yun Qi suddenly rushed in from outside the hospital with an excited tone.
"Madam, I have just received news that the Xiao family's army defeated the Nanyue Kingdom. All the people in the world have written letters, requesting the imperial court to give an explanation to the Northern Palace.
The people in the imperial court are frightened and are searching for your whereabouts all over the world. Also, the emperor issued a decree to summon King Bei back to the imperial city to report his duties and receive rewards. King Bei was furious and killed the eunuch who issued the decree.
I don’t know how the King of the North knew we were here. According to the news received on the 18th floor, the King of the North led a million soldiers and horses, broke through several cities on the north-south border, and headed towards Xiaobeizhuang!
