I brought down Bai Yueguang by selling miserably

Chapter 99



Chapter 99

After much thought, Mu Yun could only entrust the soldier talisman to Huai Zhao that night, hoping that he could rescue Qin Cheng.

"Qi Shaoxia, Qi Shaoxia?" There were urgent calls in his ears, Qi Jue raised his tired eyes and saw clearly where he was.

He had already returned to the station of the Shepherd Army.His consciousness began to recover, and the previous memories came up little by little, and finally stayed on Su Mingyu's face.

Su Mingyu.Qi Jue got up in a hurry, and suddenly felt a heavy weight on his legs.

Su Mingyu was leaning against his leg, sleeping soundly.

Half of his heart was relieved, and he reached out to touch his hair, but suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"Mingyu, Mingyu...Su Mingyu." Qi Jue pushed him hard, and sure enough, as he guessed, Su Mingyu didn't fall asleep at all, but passed out.

As for the reason, Qi Jue quickly recalled in his mind, recalling the water in the kettle he drank before, he only drank a few sips, while Su Mingyu drank most of the rest.

Who gave the medicine.All the current circumstances indicated that Li Lan was the most suspected.

Qi Jue checked Su Mingyu's body slightly with his movements, and after making sure that he was not injured, he was completely relieved.

"General Mu, Shaoxia Qi has woken up."

Mu Yun Shenfei also rushed to Qi Jue, and hurriedly asked: "Where is your majesty?"

Qi Jue's anger was still there, and he looked at him blankly in anger.

Mu Yunshen knew from his expression that he had nothing to do with this matter.Blame myself, blame myself for not stopping Li Lan, who knew that Li Lan would be so bold as to drug them!

Now it must have been robbed by Huang Qijun or the bandits in the nearby village. If the latter is okay, it is nothing more than seeking money and profit.

If it was the former, Qin Cheng's capture had already made him feel constrained by the enemy everywhere, but if Li Lan was added, the consequences would be disastrous.

Li Lan is not like Qin Cheng, he is an ancestor who can't hurt a single hair.

Mu Yun was deeply worried, and murmured subconsciously: "Since you followed him, you should watch him."

Qi Jue was only a little disappointed with Mu Yunshen before, but now his heart is completely cold: "Since you know that he is going to take Su Mingyu out, you should follow him."

"Or do you think that the two of them can survey the terrain safely?" Qi Jue's words hurt Mu Yunshen, and he had no choice but to face the darkness in his heart.

"Do you think I have the ability to look at Li Lan in a coma?" Qi Jue looked at Muyun and said coldly: "Also, what's the matter with the water in the kettle? Think of a reasonable excuse."

Nobody poisons themselves.Mu Yunshen naturally knew that Li Lan was the most suspected.If he wasn't a member of the Li family's royal family, Mu Yunshen would have sighed that he had committed a crime and couldn't live.

Mu Yunshen was speechless, so he could only send additional troops to search for Li Lan's whereabouts.

Qi Jue guarded Su Mingyu until the stars disappeared and the moon moved, and Su Mingyu woke up.

His condition is very bad, there is a trace of tiredness in his weakness, and his brows are still tightly frowned, probably because of a headache.

Qi Jue gently hugged him: "What's the matter, are you still uncomfortable?"

"My physique, this drug should not work for me." Su Mingyu said in a muffled voice.

Qi Jue thought his condition was very serious, but now he felt a lot more relaxed when he heard it, and said with a chuckle, "Probably because you had a cold poison attack not long ago, your body is relatively weak, and your physique has also changed."

"Brother, I went to get water this morning as usual, and I was drugged at some point." Su Mingyu frowned, as if he was recalling something, but he didn't answer the question for a long time, and the frown between his brows became more and more wide tight.

"Don't think about it, Li Lan probably did this." Qi Jue soothed Su Mingyu's frowning brows.

Su Mingyu looked around, Qi Jue knew what he was thinking, and said, "Li Lan is missing and hasn't come back yet. If he can come back safely, we can settle the score with him."

If it goes missing, Qi determined to think, this is also in line with his purpose.

"En." Su Mingyu responded, and gently pressed his forehead against Qi Jue's collarbone: "Brother Qi, I'm so dizzy."

Qi Jue remembered that Su Mingyu drank most of the remaining pot of water, so it would be strange if he didn't feel dizzy, he rubbed Su Mingyu's temples vigorously, and said softly: "Sleep for a while, in another hour Let's have dinner again."

"Yeah. My brother called me." Su Mingyu said something in a daze, then closed his eyes.

"it is good."

It was late at night, and the men sent by Mu Yunshen hadn't found Li Lan's whereabouts yet.As one of the few insiders, the imperial guards were even more anxious.

But no matter how impatient he was, he didn't dare to tell Mu Yunshen the truth.Not to mention that he didn't know what happened in the forest. At the critical moment of Li Lan's disappearance, as a participant in this incident, he must be inseparable.

Therefore, the guards of the Royal Forest Army were tight-lipped and did not dare to leak any information.

Mu Yunshen's search in the forest was fruitless, so he could only consider breaking into the various villages. Even at the risk of leaking information to Huang Qi's army, he had to find Li Lan's whereabouts as soon as possible.

He was about to break into the village with a group of people, but suddenly there was a sound of breaking through the air.

A sharp arrow brushed Mu Yunshen's cheek and pierced into the Tengyun wood in front of him.

Mu Yunshen turned around and looked, and a black figure quickly disappeared into the jungle. It seemed that this person had quite high martial arts skills.

Mu Yunshen pulled out the plain paper tied to the sharp arrow, and it was kneaded into a small ball, and a small piece of white fat jade pendant was wrapped in the paper ball, with a clear and moist texture.

It was the jade pendant that Li Lan usually wore around his waist.

Mu Yunshen took out the jade pendant, and wrote two lines on the paper: "Redeem the dog emperor, exchange it with Mu Yunshen. Tomorrow at [-]:[-] noon, go here alone to meet."

Mu Yunshen's brows were deeply frowned. This person knew Li Lan's identity, but he was not a member of Huang Qijun, let alone an ordinary bandit. It was really disturbing.

But he had to go. Li Lan didn't have any ability to protect himself. If he fell into their hands, he was more likely to escape.

But in this way, there were only two days left before Qin Cheng was executed by Ling Chi.If he went to meet this masked man and fell into his hands, even if he was lucky enough to escape, he would have no time to dispatch troops to rescue Qin Cheng.

After much thought, Mu Yun could only entrust the soldier talisman to Huai Zhao that night, hoping that he could rescue Qin Cheng.

"Yun Shen, why did you put yourself in danger for him?" Huai Zhao sighed lightly.

"I also know that going here is extremely dangerous, and I may not be able to come back alive." Mu Yun looked deeply at Huai Zhao: "General Huai, if, if I die because of this, after you rescue Qincheng..."

Mu Yunshen originally wanted to say that he entrusted the soldier talisman to Qin Cheng, but felt that his actions were inappropriate.If Huai Zhao had the heart to give way, he would hand over the soldier talisman to Qin Cheng without saying anything.

If he wanted this power, and he said so himself, would he still try his best to save Qin Cheng?

Mu Yunshen had never been so upset before, it was as if someone took every step and piled up all the troubles in front of him, forcing him to make a choice.

He sighed: "After you rescue Qincheng, quickly evacuate from here to prevent the Huangqi army in the neighboring city from counterattacking."

"Yes." Huai Zhao agreed, "Do you really want to go alone tomorrow?"

Mu Yunshen knew what Huai Zhao meant, and he wanted to set up an ambush secretly.

"No." Mu Yunshen vetoed: "We don't know where His Majesty is being held. We will definitely be more vigilant when we meet the enemy tomorrow. If there is any trouble, Your Majesty will be in danger."

"I don't know what his purpose is to arrest me, but as long as he doesn't kill me immediately and send me to a certain place, there is hope for me to escape."

After Mu Yunshen finished speaking, he sighed softly for his uncertain future: "General Huai, I'm tired."

"General Mu, take a good rest, I'll take my leave first." Huai Zhao wisely walked out of the temporary camp of the main general.

Mu Yun thought for a while, and sent someone to secretly call General Shi Qianyuan to him.

He took out a cloth bag full of boundless sand from his arms, and said to Qianyuan: "This thing is like sand, colorless and odorless, but it can be detected by scorpions. At noon tomorrow, I will pin it on my body and scratch it." Make a small opening. After His Majesty returns, send my trusted guards to rescue me along the traces of the boundless sand.”

"Also, if Qin Cheng can be successfully rescued in this battle, I hope you can help Qin Cheng to rise to power."

Qian Yuan wondered: "The military talisman is in the hands of the old general Huai, how can I..."

"I have a letter written by me with my private military seal on it. After Qincheng is rescued, I will use the letter to pressure Huai Zhao and force him to hand over the military amulet." Mu Yunshen said with deep eyes: "He is old. , is not a good candidate to lead the armed forces."

……

"Is he still suffering?"

"Old General Huai." Qi Jue didn't expect Huai Zhao to come to visit Su Mingyu, and was a little surprised.

Only the main general's tent and a few wounded military tents will be set up in the temporary garrison.

Now that the battle has not started yet, and Su Mingyu's condition is not very good, Qi Jue and him are staying temporarily in the tent of the wounded.

Qi Jue touched Su Mingyu's forehead and said, "I don't have any fever, but I'm still a little dizzy."

Huai Zhao looked at Qi Jue hugging Su Mingyu intimately. He was old and didn't quite understand the friendship of young people nowadays, so he coughed lightly in embarrassment: "I have been marching for many years, addicted to drugs, poisons and strong drugs, basically I have seen it all over the Internet. For Mr. Su, I also have a bottle of antidote that has a good effect."

Huai Zhao handed the medicine bottle to Qi Jue.

Qi Jue reached out to take it, and said thank you.

He gently pushed Su Mingyu to wake him up, Su Mingyu's consciousness was still a little fuzzy, and he asked in a muffled voice, "Is it time?"

"You've been asleep for almost two hours." Qi Jue looked at Su Mingyu's sleepy expression with worried eyes: "Seeing that you slept soundly, I didn't wake you up."

Su Mingyu reluctantly opened his heavy eyelids, Qi Jue opened the medicine bottle and handed it to Su Mingyu: "Old General Huai specially sent it to you, saying it can relieve dizziness."

"Has Old General Huai come?" Su Mingyu caught a glimpse of Huai Zhao who was beside him.The actions just now were nothing, but this kind of demeanor in front of the elders is still a bit unrestrained.

Su Mingyu sat up slightly, and swallowed the antidote.

Huai Zhao laughed dryly again and again, and said, "Young Master Su can continue to rest, it's alright, I'll take my leave first."

Su Mingyu and Huai Zhao politely said a few words, then watched him leave the tent.

"Brother, I'm a little hungry." Su Mingyu whispered.

"You sit here for a while, I'll get you dry food." Qi Jue asked Su Mingyu to lean on the backrest made of simple wooden boards, and went out by himself.

Su Mingyu's head followed the sleepiness bit by bit, he raised his head, and leaned his whole body weight on the wooden board.

It may be the reason that the cold poison in the body was suppressed by the strong poison several times before, but it was the first time in Su Mingyu's life that he had such a big physical reaction to the drug.

Fortunately, there are still two days left, and they should be able to regain consciousness before the siege.

The footsteps outside the tent came from far to near, Qi Jue walked into the tent and handed the naan bread and a pot of water to Su Mingyu.

Su Mingyu broke off the naan bread and ate it for a while, Qi Jue put his hand on Su Mingyu's shoulder and put his arms around him.

When Qi Jue just went out, he heard the army talking about Li Lan's whereabouts, and heard Mu Yunshen's plan to rescue Li Lan at noon tomorrow.

In his heart, he didn't want Mu Yunshen to save him.

If Li Lan came back, he would have to find another time to attack him.Even without Mu Yunshen's obstruction, it would be a troublesome matter.

"It's a bit dirty." Qi Jue said looking at the crumbs at the corner of Su Mingyu's mouth.

"Where?" Su Mingyu was still sleepy and asked without raising his head.

Qi Jue turned his face sideways, and gently kissed away the debris from the corner of his mouth.

He also felt that he was suspected of taking advantage of others' danger, so he tried to cover it up and explained: "I didn't bring any paper."

Su Mingyu frowned and looked at him helplessly, and said with a light smile, "Brother is really too much."

His voice was very soft, and even the upward arc of the corner of his mouth was a little weak.

Qi determined to pluck Su Mingyu's hair painfully, and gently clasped his hand, not to provoke him anymore.

On the second day, Mu Yunshen went to the forest alone for the meeting, and he deliberately arrived at the meeting place a little earlier.

He made a very thin cut in the cloth bag pinned to his inner coat, and the fine sand fell on the forest floor in a state that was barely visible to the naked eye.

At [-]:[-] p.m., Li Lan was shoved and rushed to Mu Yunshen with a white cloth stuffed in his mouth.

Except for the masked assassin who had been vaguely seen at that time, there were two masked men in black guarding Li Lan's side behind him.

Their steps were steady and powerful, and they stepped on the dead branches and rotten leaves all over the ground without making a sound. It seemed that their internal strength was extremely high.

"Let him go, I'll go over there." Mu Yunshen threw the saber at his waist on the ground to show his sincerity.

"You have no room to discuss with us, we have to tie you up first, and then release him." The leading assassin said: "Otherwise..."

He drew a bullet knife from his waist and pressed it against Li Lan's neck. A few drops of blood dripped from the tip of the knife.

"Stop." Mu Yunshen yelled and stopped him, "Come and tie me up."

The two people beside Li Lan dragged the hemp rope in their hands forward, tied it around Mu Yunshen's waist three times, and finally tied it heavily around his wrists.

After doing all this, the two nodded slightly to the assassin who was holding Li Lan, and the assassin actually released Li Lan.

Mu Yunshen prepared for the worst, because he had no bargaining chip at all, but he didn't expect the other party to keep his promise so much, and he was a little surprised.

A few seconds after Li Lan's hand was released, the person behind him kicked his butt hard: "Get lost."

Li Lan almost fell to the ground, and got up in a panic. He was still in shock, and ran out in a hurry without looking in Mu Yunshen's direction.

"Take it away." The leading assassin said.

Mu Yunshen followed behind them swallowing his anger. According to the current situation, they should not have noticed their little tricks behind their backs.

The four of them walked for three or four miles before stopping in front of a secluded hut.

"Go in."

Mu Yunshen was pushed into the room, but there was still a person standing in the room, about eight feet tall, looking extraordinary.

The man signaled the remaining three with his eyes, and one of them immediately stepped forward to grab Mu Yunshen's jaw, and threw a pill into his mouth.

Mu Yunshen coughed twice violently, but the pill had already entered his stomach.

The effect of the medicine came very quickly, and Mu Yunshen's limbs became weak and weak, and he probably couldn't even lift a chopstick.

The two people on the side searched for the military seal on Mu Yunshen's body, and started to remove his armor.

"What are you doing?" Mu Yunshen asked nervously.

Those two didn't answer, they quickly took off his armor and coat, and were about to take off his inner coat.

The eight-foot-tall man signaled them to stop with his hand. He walked up to Mu Yunshen and reached out to pick up the cloth bag pinned to his waist.

Mu Yunshen could only pray that he didn't find the tiny loophole in it.

The man untied the cloth bag and opened the mouth of the bag straight away, and the boundless sand fell into his hands with a slight itching.

"Interesting." He sneered, and dropped the fine sand in his hand to the ground.

Mu Yunshen was in a trance, staring blankly at the boundless sand falling from his hand, and suddenly saw the flashing mark on his wrist.

This is a bloody mark, symbolizing the rising sun and the undead soul.

Mu Yunshen was taken aback, and said, "You are a member of the Shengming Cult."

The man glanced at him, then noticed his wrist, and took it back as if nothing had happened.

"You will know sooner or later." He said lightly, and said to the three people beside him: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time."

Mu Yunshen's underwear was stripped off, and he changed into the most unremarkable dusty refugee clothes.

His hands were no longer bound, and those people seemed to have planned to feed the medicine regularly, and they only watched him from the sidelines, coercing him to leave the place.

He is eight feet tall and has a jade face.Mu Yunshen speculated on their identities as they walked.

There was only one person's footsteps in the huge forest, and Mu Yunshen seemed to be able to hear his own heartbeat.

This person, if he guessed correctly.It should be Qing Lingfan, the number one master of Shengming Sect.

Then the remaining three should be Qing Wuya, Duan Ren and Duan Kongcheng, one of the four masters.

These four people have been carrying out secret missions all year round, and they seldom practice Islam. They have similarities with Anbu of the Shengming Sect, but their martial arts have already reached their peak.

Why did they appear here, and why did they hold them hostage? Could it be that the mutiny in the capital had something to do with the Shengming Sect?

His mind was in a state of chaos, and he could hardly make sense of it.
