Chapter 176 - Zhe in Trouble, Poison Comes Along

Chapter 176 Zhe in Trouble, Poison Comes AlongLiu Shuai smiled. Before their quarrel, Zhou Yuan’s phone rang. Hao Ning peeked and unexpectedly found it was Ye.

“I’ll be back to you!” Zhou Yuan gave Liu Shuai a stern look. Then he answered his phone. Ye said anxiously and, didn’t know why, in a very low voice. “Zhou Yuan, is Master Hao Ning there?”

Why called me Master!? I’m not a master in repairing and checking water meter! Hao Ning felt a little upset. If Ye called him brother or handsome brother, he would be happier.

“Yes. What’s up?” Zhou Yuan coughed slightly, cleared his throat, and asked in a husky voice. “What do you ask about Hao Ning for? Maybe I can help you? ”

Suddenly, it seemed that his voice became magnetic and perfect.

“F**k!” Liu Shuai and Hao Ning looked crazy. “Why did you always keep your ‘fake, good and beautiful’ image? Shame on you! ”

“No, no. You can’t do it. You can’t do anything.” That voice seemed not to be affected by Zhou Yuan. She anxiously said: “Please tell Master Hao Ning to save Zhe. He’s dying!”

“You said I can’t do it, and I can’t do anything?” Zhou Yuan got angry and said with a blush: “Hey! Tell me why I can’t do it? I can do more than ten times a night!”

Seeing Zhou Yuan muttering angrily, Hao Ning quickly grabbed Zhou Yuan’s phone: “Ye, I’m Hao Ning. What’s going on? What happened to Zhe!”

“It’s complicated to explain.” Her anxious voice mixed with some noise and knocking. “Could you please come here quickly? We’re in a remote place where…”

Before Ye speaking out, they heard a muffled voice from the phone: “Girl, looking for rescue now? It seems a little late!”

“F**k off!” Zhou Yuan snorted and drew a circle in the air around Hao Ning, Xiao Hong, Liu Shuai and himself. Then he shouted: “Go!” Then they disappeared from the meeting room.

After one second, the four people stood in front of Ye. They had thought Ye would be glad and excited when seeing them as if seeing gods. Who knew she looked in horror and was going to yell? Zhou Yuan noticed that and immediately pointed to Ye. Ye yelled desperately but without any sound at all. Needless to say, it was Zhou Yuan’s “fake, good, and beautiful” art.

But when Ye shouted soundlessly, she madly slapped the four people, even including Xiao Hong. Hao Ning gapped at Ye, wondering that: Didn’t you look for rescues? Now we are coming. You didn’t welcome and thank us, but instead cruelly slapped us one by one. Why we were so stupid?

Hao Ning smiled wryly and shook his head. But from Ye’s soundless and screaming mouth, she said: “Freak! Help! Hooligans! Catching hooligans—”

“Hush!” Hao Ning didn’t know what was going on, but he guessed it might be a misunderstanding. He quickly made a “hush” gesture and said: “It’s me, Hao Ning. They are my friends. You probably knew them—Didn’t you call us?”

At this time, Ye calmed down and saw Hao Ning’s face clearly and then looked at all four people around her. She nodded. When seeing Ye come back to sane, Zhou Yuan took out his art and listened to Ye: “Why you are so fast?”

Zhou Yuan immediately said with a smile as soon as he got the chance to show off his art: “Well, you have to ask me the—”

“Hey.” Zhou Yuan still wanted to boast of his art, but Liu Shuai suddenly muffled his mouth and interrupted: “This place is too small. Can we go out?”

Until he said it, Hao Ning noticed that there were four people of them, adding Ye, and there were five people in all squeezing in a small room. What room? Looking down and carefully, he found there was a toilet in this stall. It turned out to be a toilet! But why did Liu Shuai first realize? Because he just stepped on the toilet lid and sat on the pumping table!

Looking at Ye’s face with blush, Hao Ning realized at once: If this was a toilet, what kind of toilet can a girl phone for help? It must be a women’s room! No wonder Ye looked in horror when seeing them and gave everyone a big slap. Needless to say, if any girl in the women’s room sees several men, she’ll ask for help. Let alone slaps, even if she hit them with her bag whose parents won’t recognize, there’s nobody would feel sympathy for them.

Everyone understood then. They awkwardly scratched their heads and then glared at Zhou Yuan. Zhou Yuan shrugged with his hands innocently at once. He just wanted to show off his art. How could he consider so much?

“Hmm‒we’re not so fast.” Hao Ning wanted to break the ice so transferred another topic. He pointed to Zhou Yuan and explained: “He’s fast. He’s the fastest one here. He’s our fastest man. ”

Zhou Yuan just wanted to proudly nod but saw Liu Shuai and Xiao Hong shyly giggled. Ye also blushed and didn’t look at him. Suddenly he realized that Hao Ning was slandering him. Before Zhou Yuan rejected, Hao Ning had opened the door to the toilet and went out.

Everyone followed him and walked out. They looked around carefully and awkwardly found it was the women’s room. Hao Ning washed his face and heard the knocking of the door outside: “Girl, if you still couldn’t find a helper, your young boyfriend might die soon!”

“Shut up. Did they threaten you just now?” Hao Ning frowned and asked Ye softly. He could see that Ye was very tense. She nodded with hands tightly holding her phone.

Just two soughs, Hao Ning gently filliped twice at the door, and there was no sound outside. Looking at Ye stunned, Hao Ning smiled and explained: “It’s wuxiang-zhi, a kung fu skill that one can attack even with obstacles.”

Zhou Yuan and the others had been numb to that. Wasn’t it! Yesterday when Hao Ning used wuxiang-zhi with apricot bamboo hat, he could beat down those men. Was this door stronger than it?

“What the hell is going on?” The other three came out of the toilet. Liu Shuai asked frowningly: “What happened to Zhe? He was still fine several days ago. How come he’s dying?”

Ye was an articulate girl. She explained in a few words.

After that day, Zhe tried to contact Wang’s collaboratory of Qingbei University—On hearing this, Hao Ning realized if Long Fei had waited for Wang family’s help, this event might not have happened—Who knew Wang Shi Ming would know it? And didn’t know what was wrong with Wang Shi Ming, he asked someone last night to tell Zhe that they must compete immediately. Otherwise, the gambling would be canceled. Zhe had no idea and had to do. But he was very cautious and consulted with Ye. He pretended not to contest with those who had strange kung fu. Wang Shi Ming had agreed with him as well. The first match was pretty good. Zhe won with a little effort. But until the match just now, Zhe was as if drunk and was struck down quickly. When Ye went to help Zhe, it seemed that he was severely injured. They discussed and let Ye ask help for Hao Ning—As for why she called for Zhou Yuan, it was also easy to understand. With Zhou Yuan’s slut character, he certainly had given his contact information to Ye and Zhe after the last encounter, so that he could get more a chance to show off his “fake, good and beautiful” talent.

“How come? As for Zhe’s physical quality, even if he was struck down, it was impossible to be so easy. ” Liu Shuai frowned and guessed: “Was he too tired because of that night competition?”

“No.” Ye blushed and then shook her head. “Actually, before today’s dawn, Zhe was brushing his teeth when his brother called. That was his normal time to get up because he liked to practice kung fu. His timetable was earlier than common people, so slept very early and got up usually at 4 am.”

“Stop guessing.” Hao Ning waved his hand. “Take us to see it.”

“How do I introduce you?” Ye was still a little embarrassed about slapping them just now. If she had known that one of them was Sudhana, she would have been scared to death.

“Just say we are Zhe’s—” Hao Ning took a breath and said steadily, “Brother.”

Walking out of the toilet, they saw that they were in a climbing place in the suburb of S City. This place was very special because it was not like other places with fake climbing rocks. It relied on the small side of a mountain, which was not so much a mountain as several huge stones. The sides of these huge stones were flat and just good for climbing. As a matter of fact, the rich were really better at playing. Around this climbing place, there were other facilities, such as golf courses and so on. But it seemed that the place was cleared out where there were only a few people.

“Who do you have the full Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils?” Before entering the court, Hao Ning suddenly stopped and said.

“Well, I have.” Zhou Yuan responded quickly. He moved his fingers, and then Hao Ning’s mobile vibrated. Zhou Yuan said, “Now it’s in your mobile, too.”

“Thanks.” Hao Ning smiled and looked at Zhou Yuan. Moment god was more and more considerate now. He knew what he wanted before he said.

Hao Ning grabbed his mobile and said quietly: “Lend me your Mana!” Then he went into the climbing ground.

There were only a few people inside. Hao Ning immediately recognized the man named Wang Shi Ming. After all, he was a public figure and was not difficult to be recognized. The rest all wore black masks, hard to see their faces. On the other side of the ground, a man lay slantingly with his eyes closing and blood flowing in his mouth. Needless to say, it was Zhe.

Wang Shi Ming didn’t look at Hao Ning. Instead, he was playing mobile games happily. Another person wore a mask next to him, but she was a woman. She was feeding Wang chocolate or water now and then as if she had been just a passerby, having nothing to do with us.

She must have strong self-confidence. Otherwise, she won’t be like that.

“Are you the rescuers?” One of those men said. “Ye, are you insane? Look at them. They are not as strong as your dear boyfriend. Even if they were human sandbags, we wouldn’t hit them. Hahaha…”

“Especially this pretty boy.” Another guy pointed at Xiao Hong, laughing: “Men with a lady’s face, he’s really cute. We have a bisexual brother. How about spending your night with him?” I assure he can’t stop and want more.”

“Humph!” When the Great Saint Infant King had been so ridiculed? After a cold hum, there was a red light flashing over the man who talked just now. His hair and eyebrows immediately became ashes and floated down.

“You!” The man saw it. He wiped his eyebrows and found it became black ash. He immediately knew that boy was very powerful. “What is your kung fu?”

“Next time, it will be your bone ash.” Xiao Hong didn’t want to talk to them. He was one of the gods and didn’t mind his gender. But he couldn’t bear that guy’s frivolous words so gave him a lesson. Then Xiao Hong casually found a place to sit, watching the scenery and never talk again.

Hao Ning understood Xiao Hong’s thoughts. In Xiao Hong’s eyes, these fights belonged to mortals. It was unworthy to involve in, and he didn’t want to cause matters as well. If it hadn’t been so urgent just now and Zhou Yuan called them four together, Xiao Hong wouldn’t have had to come.

“Ha ha ha.” Hao Ning immediately smiled and said. “See our Flame Knife!”

Then Hao Ning immediately winked at others. They understood that it was best not to let the opponents know clearly them. They just had a kung fu skill whose effect was similar to the Flame Knife, and it could cheat the others.

“Flame Knife?” Those guys seeing Xiao Hong might be a master, immediately whispered. Wang Shi Ming was still playing games, not looking at them.

Observing Wang’s men didn’t provoke, Hao Ning quickly went to Zhe. Who knew that Zhe, while he opened his eyes and also heard someone talking around, didn’t get up and said anything even seeing them coming?

Liu Shuai was worried. He was going to help Zhe: “Zhe, how are you?”

Unexpectedly, Hao Ning immediately held on Liu Shuai and said: “Stop!”

“Why?” Liu Shuai stopped and looked back at Hao Ning.

“Ye.” Hao Ning stared at Zhe laying on the ground, frowning and asked. “When has Zhe become like this?”

“I…I don’t know.” Ye was very tense and wanted to see Zhe. But she was stopped by Hao Ning. “Don’t touch him.”

“Why?” Ye was a little anxious, but she listened to him, stopping. “When I left, Zhe could still move. He told me to phone you. How can’t he speak in minutes?”

“Good job!” Hao Ning’s eyes were flushing. He gently said beside Zhe: “Don’t mind other things. Take a good rest. I’ll avenge you!”

Zhe said nothing. He closed his eyes after hearing Hao Ning.

“Xiao Hong, give me a bamboo leave.” Hao Ning pretended to be relaxed and said to Xiao Hong.

“It’s here!” Xiao Hong smiled and continued to enjoy the scenery.

Isn’t it? Hao Ning looked again and found there was a verdant bamboo leaf in Zhe’s lips.

“Well, you don’t need to talk. I know everything.” Hao Ning continued to comfort Zhe.

“What’s going on?” Liu Shuai didn’t understand it, “What are you talking about? Why you said ‘good job’ and asked for a bamboo leaf?”

“He got poisoned.” Hao Ning sighed and said: “He got Carrion Poison. Anyone who touches him will die immediately.”

“What?” Liu Shuai’s hands shook. He was closest to Zhe. Then he wiped his hand immediately. “How could they be so vicious?”

“And all the bones in his body have been crushed.” Hao Ning continued, “He might get a neural poison and couldn’t talk. If we had just gone to care Zhe immediately and found he don’t speak, maybe we all would have examined his injury carefully. So—”

“So that each of us would die.” Zhou Yuan said coldly. “And if I’m right, whoever touches the Carrion Poison on Zhe would get poisoned on his body. Anyone who meets him later will be poisoned as well. And there would more and more people getting it. In this case, no matter how many rescuers Ye called and how strong he was, as long as he cares about Zhe, he’ll definitely die before fighting.”

“Yes.” Hao Ning nodded. Carrion Poison was a very famous poison created by Constellation Codger Ding Chunqiu in Jin Yong’s Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils. “So, I said it was a good job. Kill us in a split second. ”

“You’re too cruel!” Liu Shuai said bitterly. Then he saw Ye frowning. Apparently, she didn’t believe it.

“It wasn’t so cruel. They still have other methods.” Hao Ning, looking at them on the other side, continued to say: “Even if we didn’t touch Zhe, they have plan B and plan C, which was the cruelest thing.”

“What plan B?” Liu Shuai sat on the ground and was farther away from Zhe.

“Sadness and crisp breeze.” Hao Ning slowly spoke out. But his eyes still didn’t remove from them. Nobody knew what he looked at.

“What’s it?” Liu Shuai was a bit curious. He wanted to stand up and ask more, but he shook and didn’t stand up. “Haven’t I taken breakfast this morning? Why I haven’t any strength?”

“Because you have got poisoned.” Hao Ning sighed and shook his head. “Sadness and crisp breeze is a poison that people will lose strength after smelling it and can’t attack against even.” And then he looked at Liu Shuai, Ye and Zhou Yuan who fell down the ground. He couldn’t resist saying: “Zhou Yuan, even Liu Shuai and Ye got poisoned, but you’re kind of a powerful god. How can you be the same as them?”

“Cut the crap!” Zhou Yuan was out of breath, weakly sitting on the ground. But he still said stubbornly: “I can’t defend everything!”

“Hao Ning, why haven’t you got poisoned?” Liu Shuai asked insistently: “What kind of kung fu skill can you defense poison?”

“You don’t read books carefully. You deserve it.” Hao Ning smiled. It was very easy to find a way to defense poison by using Mana. “But it didn’t work even if you’ve read it. Well, just lie down for a while. Take a break.”

“But I am p…p…poisoned.” Liu Shuai couldn’t speak clearly, but he was still very tense. “I feel I’ll die soon. Wen, I am sorry. I haven’t given you everything…”

“If you die one day, it’s when you scare yourself to death.” Hao Ning kneaded his forehead, smiling, but his eyes still looked over there. “Sadness and crisp breeze just makes you unable to move. You won’t die. Relax!”

“Huo Ning, there seems something strange. I have to see it. I can’t help you with these trifles.” Hao Ning suddenly heard Xiao Hong’s words and knew he might have found something. So, he replied. “Got it.”

Then he went ahead. Besides Wang Shi Ming and his nearby lady, there still had five people. The five seeing Hao Ning coming forward, suddenly applauded.

“You’re very brave.” said a stalwart man. “You can walk to the front of us. You’re really strong.”

“Well, shut your mouth.” Hao Ning waved his hand disapprovingly. It was his first time to experience this kind of case. But as the old saying goes, the talented and skilled are bold, he didn’t afraid. Hao Ning continued, “Where’s the Black Jade Discontinuous Ointment? It’s not ok if you don’t show me your sincerity.”
