Hu Li: "won't the poison in her body come out?"
Duanmushen: "when she's dead, she'll run out. Isn't that the way medicine people are?"
Three teenagers tied up the people on the bed, put cloth in their mouths, and then went to the next room to order food.
Hu Li then asked about their intention: "what are you two doing in kunzhou?"
Duanmushen: "we are going to Lanzhou to find an uncle to help us forge weapons."
Hu Li: "I see. Why don't you go with me to the mountain where they are going to make medicine. I'll take you to Lanzhou. I'm familiar with Lanzhou."
Duanmushen is not very willing to go, and feels it's troublesome.
Hu Li said, "there are many strange herbs and poisons there. Don't you want to see them?"
This sentence is aroused Duanmu deep interest, "OK, tomorrow to see."
There was a slight sound coming from the next room. Hu Li unconsciously looked back and said, "I seem to be awake."
After dinner, the three returned to the girl's room.
The girl on the bed was pale at the moment. She was staring at them with a pair of blood red eyes. She struggled hard, but the rope was too firm. She couldn't get rid of it at all. Her fingers were holding the mattress under her, and her nails were about to break, oozing snow.
Hu Li, ouch. It's too frightening. It's just like a ghost.
Duanmushen and Li suichen are very calm, but also a few steps forward to observe the girl's situation.
Hu Li: "what did you do? How did she become such a ghost?"
Duanmu put his finger on his lips and hissed, "wait a minute."
Hu Li didn't know what to wait for, so the three teenagers each found a place to sit down. Hu Li saw the young girl on the bed with blue tendons rising suddenly and her head rising high, as if she was going to be out of breath in the next second. However, soon, she was convulsed all over again, and her skin and flesh were bulging, so that Hu Li was going to vomit out for dinner.
After waiting for midnight, the girl on the bed finally calmed down and fell asleep.
She gradually returned to the harmless appearance of people and animals in the daytime.
Duanmu untied her rope and drugged her fingers. "Go back to sleep, and start early tomorrow."
The next day, lotus did not remember what happened last night.
Because only the lotus knew where the mountain was, they had to take the lotus to find their way, but she couldn't ride a horse, so we had to take a carriage.
Several teenagers are driving instead. On the way, duanmushen talks about last night's situation and says: "the poison in her body has been swallowed up by other poisons. Now she is a container for poisons. Seven or eight poisons fight in her body. Only the last poison can kill all the other poisons and survive."
"Before, she may have taken some medicine to put all the poisons in her body into a dormant state, but this state will make her body break down quickly. I woke up all the poisons last night, and then take one medicine every night. If you can survive until there is only one poison left in your body, you can survive."
Hu Li: "what will she be like then?"
Duanmushen: "with me, I won't let her be controlled by poisons, but we should also be careful of those who catch you. The dead drug people all failed because of swallowing, and if you succeed, they will try their best to catch you."
Lotus understand, holding the bottle in hand, eyes full of firm.
The mountain lotus said was not far from the town. The carriage arrived in half a day, but they couldn't get to the front door of the house, so they went round the path in the dense forest, abandoned the carriage and walked instead.
"Are you afraid?" Hu Li asked the lotus, "after all, it's the place to catch you. If you are afraid, just say it. It's easy to say it. We will protect you."
Lotus: "I'm ok, probably people will die, I suddenly feel nothing to be afraid of."
Hu Li looked at her admiringly: "you are very good."
The four went up the mountain from the place where the lotus went down. From here, they will go directly to the place where the medicine man was abandoned.
Lotus: "this is where I wake up The bodies here are gone. "
This is a wide gully with several footprints on it.
Duanmu said: "maybe it has been disposed of. The corpse of the druggist can be fed poison. Maybe they just put it here temporarily."
Lotus: "will they find that they are missing me?"
Duanmu Shen: "I don't know."
After walking for a while, Hu Li said, "isn't this the back hill of Mingjia villa? According to the terrain, not far ahead is Mingjia villa, and behind the villa is a small mountain range, which belongs to the back mountain of Mingjia villa. "
Duanmushen: "so those people are from Mingjia villa?"
Hu Li: "very likely."
Now the owners of Mingjia villa don't know who they are, so although they have the name of Mingjia villa, they don't know what it is.
The back mountain of Mingjia villa is very wide. It is said that there is an underground palace in it. Duanmushen and Li suichen know about it. Xu Qing and Li Changting also hid gold in the underground palace. They came to take the gold away two years ago. Did someone come and occupy the underground palace later?Duanmushen didn't bother to guess. He took a few people to touch it directly. There might be watchmen nearby. Fortunately, Hu Li grew up in the military camp and was very sensitive to the patrol guards. He said that he didn't move on until there were no others.
When they got to the mountain, they hid behind a bush and looked at the distance along the crack.
There were guards there, but when they saw the stone gate, duanmushen and Li suichen knew that it was the underground palace of Mingjia villa.
"There are too many people to get close to." Duanmu said in a low voice, "I think we can go down the mountain and report to the official directly."
Hu Li shook his head: "no, this is just a stronghold for them. They still have territory in Lanzhou. Don't scare the snake first."
Duanmu doesn't matter: "listen to you."
Several teenagers quietly went back, but when they got to the place where the lotus woke up, duanmushen always felt something was wrong.
Duanmu guessed: "why do they leave the medicine man here? Is there any place near here that needs these medicine man?"
Hu Li: "we'll look around then?"
Duanmushen: "look for it before it's dark."
It's impossible to be on the mountain. It's only possible that there may be something hidden at the foot of the mountain.
Four people in the vicinity of a look, and indeed found a path down the mountain, down the road is a valley.
Hiding behind the grass, Hu Li saw that there were many cages in this small valley. There was a person in each cage. Some were full of insects, some were full of plants, and obviously none of them was alive.
But most of these dead people still look like living people.
