Chapter 54: Catch them all in one fell swoop

The people in Youying want Huang Donglai to be alive, so they cannot give him lethal drugs.

There are four people at the same table drinking tea together. A pot of tea is used to make one alive and three dead... This kind of poisoning technology may be available in Huangmen, but Shadow, even Even Gu Qiying himself can't do it.

Therefore, the tea shop's back cook gave Huang Donglai and his companions "living medicine", not "dead medicine".

Of course, they also understand that it is not easy to control these people with medicine.

Not to mention Huang Donglai, a young master from a top poison-using family in the martial arts world, even Ran Ling is not so easy to deceive.

Therefore, Yingying's people gave them a very advanced secret medicine - "morning dew".

As the name suggests, this poison is colorless, odorless and tasteless, just like morning dew; just adding a few drops to a pot of tea can make the person who drinks the tea appear "balanced" within a certain period of time Symptoms of confusion.

So what exactly does this symptom cause?

In fact, if you close your eyes and lie still, it will be fine.

But if you want to move...even if you just want to keep standing with your eyes open, you will feel dizzy and soon fall to the ground.

To describe it, people who are poisoned by this kind of poison are like their brains experiencing a roller coaster at high intensity, but their bodies have not failed to keep up.

And there is no antidote for this "morning dew", because its effect will disappear on its own after half an hour. You only need to survive this half hour; however, during the half hour of poisoning, Within an hour, the poisoned person will inevitably turn into a useless person who cannot even stand.

Of course, in theory, if your martial arts is so high that "you can keep others at bay just by lying on the ground and throwing random moves", and your physical strength and internal strength are enough for you to do this for half a year, More than an hour... Then you are indeed not afraid of this poison.

Unfortunately, none of Huang Donglai and the others have that level of strength at the moment.

So, after the four of them drank tea for a while, Sun Yixie fell down first.

"No!" Brother Sun's sense of balance was messed up, but his intelligence was not. The moment he fell to the ground, he shouted, "The tea is poisonous!"

When he shouted, Huang Donglai, Lei Buji and Ran Ling all stood up as if their hair was fried.

Who would have thought that if they didn’t stop, they would just stop... The poison in the three people also accelerated, making them suddenly feel dizzy.

In the blink of an eye, all four of them stumbled to the ground, unable to stand up even if they tried to support themselves.

The tea drinkers around were also dumbfounded, thinking to themselves, what is going on? Is there some kind of vendetta going on in broad daylight?

Before they realized what was going on, the guys in the tea shop poured out of the back kitchen one after another, and all of them were holding weapons...

So, as soon as the four people at the table fell to the ground, the members of these shadows took action quickly.

They didn't even have to take the initiative to disperse the crowd themselves - the people of the Great Sun Dynasty were too familiar with these Jianghu affairs. With the sound of the "cangrangrang" steel sword being unsheathed, the people drinking tea around them All the people ran away, and no one left any money for tea...

Qu Xin, who was sitting behind the counter, also started to move at this time. Seeing that all the irrelevant people were running out, he took advantage of the situation. He raised his hand and pulled a mechanism hidden under the cabinet.

As soon as this mechanism was activated, a thick curtain fell from the door of the tea shop, blocking the inside and outside of the tea shop. In just an instant, it became the scene from the outside. You can't see inside, and you can't see what's going on outside.

At the same moment, more than a dozen swords were already pressed against the bodies of the four people on the ground.

These people in the shadow don't need to say "Don't move" at all, because the four of them can feel this message with their own bodies.

"It's not a good time to stay here for a long time. Let's tie them up quickly, gag them, and leave through the back door. If anything happens, we can take them back to the 'nest'." Qu Xin had already thought about what to do after capturing the four people alive. How to act, so he immediately issued this order.

A few minutes later, pedestrians on the street outside the front door of the tea shop were still pointing at the curtain. At the back door, Huang Donglai and the four of them had been tied up and carried away in sacks. .

When word of what happened here reached the yamen gate, and then the people from the yamen gate came to open the curtain, the tea shop was already empty.

…………

When the sack on Huang Donglai’s head and the rag in his mouth were removed, the medicinal properties of the “morning dew” were almost gone.

After seeing the light again, he immediately looked around and found that he was in a thatched house at the moment; Sun Yixie, Lei Buji and Ran Ling were not far from him. Here, the three of them had obviously just been sacked.

Although the four of them have now regained their sense of balance, they do not dare to act rashly.

First of all, their hands, feet and torsos are still tightly tied with ropes. Even Ran Ling, who has the most profound internal strength among the four, is not that easy to break the ropes directly with his internal strength. Yes, let alone the other three.

Secondly, there is a shadow member holding a weapon standing behind them, ready to deal with their changes; that is to say, even if one of them can break free of the rope, it is very likely that Before he could complete this action, he was taken down with a knife.

Thirdly, based on the time it took to move here, it is likely that this place is outside the city, and based on what the shopkeeper said, this place is probably owned by this group. People's "nest"... who knows what's outside this thatched house?How many enemy troops are there? Even if they can deal with these people in the house, they may not be able to escape from this place alive.

"Shaoxia Huang, Shaoxia Sun, Shaoxia Lei..." After the sacks were removed from the heads of the four people, Qu Xin, who was sitting on a stool a few meters away from them, also spoke, "You guys? You three, please let me wait..." He said, glancing at Ran Ling again, "If General Ran Qi hadn't suddenly come out to disrupt the situation, I would have brought you here last night, ha... However, this is a blessing in disguise. What a blessing, who would have thought... you would actually come to the door today, this is really God's will." Before he finished speaking, Ran Ling said angrily: " Damn it! You gang of shadow thieves, Ran Mou accidentally fell into your hands... It's so blind!" When he said this, he turned to look at the three teenagers beside him, " It's a pity that these three young heroes were arrested together with me." He shook his head again and glared at Qu Xin, "If you can, let me go, I will deal with you all by myself!"

"Oh?" After hearing this, Qu Xin thought for a while, and was neither angry nor picked on the other party's fault. Instead, he asked, "Mr. Ran Qi... From the time we met until now, I But you never said who we are, how can you be so sure... we are from Youying?"

Ran Ling's attitude has not changed, he is still very bad: "Nonsense! I have admitted that you were the ones who attacked the three young heroes in the post house last night. Ran has been tracking Youying for many years. Will I not be able to recognize the martial arts methods used by your Shadow's killer?"

"Hmm? ..." Qu Xin nodded, "That's it." After saying that, he paused thoughtfully for a moment, and then said, "However, Mr. Ran Qi is very skilled in martial arts, so I'm afraid we'll have a hard time getting rid of you. If you don't come... I can only wrong you a little more."

"Huh..." Ran Ling snorted coldly and cursed in a contemptuous tone, "Rat..."

Qu Xin ignored him and looked at Huang Donglai again, saying: "Young Master Huang, since you now know that we are from Youying, then the purpose of my catching you back is no longer necessary. Did you say more?"

Huang Donglai also sneered: "Huh...don't you just want to get Gu Qiying's notes from me?" He was calm, "Then I might as well tell you. You and I... you can talk about soft things or hard things, but you have to ensure the safety of me and my friends first."

"That's natural. ..." Qu Xin just started to answer and then started to raise his head.

Ran Ling over there interrupted him excitedly again: "Young Master Huang, you must not do this! If the contents of Gu Qiying's notes fall into their hands, it will cause endless harm in the future. My life, Ran Ling, is nothing..."

"Shut up!" Qu Xin interrupted him before he could finish his words, "You are a prisoner with a knife at your fingertips. You dare to talk nonsense here?"

Qu Xin was about to attack Ran Ling, but unexpectedly...at this moment, there was a sound of fighting outside.Noise.

Immediately afterwards, a shadow killer pushed the door open and broke in, reporting to Qu Xin: "Master, something bad has happened. We are surrounded by Jin Yiwei!"

"What?" Qu Xin stood up nervously after hearing this, "What...how..."

"As expected of my brother from the guard, he came so quickly..." At this moment, Ran Ling finally put away his reckless face, put on a calm attitude, and said to Qu Xin: "Do you really think that I, Ran Ling, am so scheming?"

"It's you..." Qu Xin realized something belatedly at this moment. He immediately frowned and glared at Ran Ling.

"Yes." Ran Ling replied, "It was my plan." He smiled, "Before I left the guardhouse with the three young heroes today, I quietly arranged for several of my subordinates to I also put on casual clothes and kept an eye on us in the dark; and I also told them not to rush into action if they saw something happen, but to wait and see first... Ha... I didn't expect such a simple thing. The 'backhand' unexpectedly allowed us to find your home base." He seemed to be unable to bear it, and laughed twice, "Haha... What you just said seems to be right, this is really. God has eyes!"

Qu Xin's face changed color after listening to his words.

At this time, a killer standing behind the four people said: "Master, take a few of them as hostages, we still have a chance to get out..."

"No Used..." Qu Xin said in a deep voice, "I know the style of Jinyiwei best... any of them can be sacrificed if necessary."

"Then...should we just surrender?" The killer said again.

"If you surrender, you can still save your life for the time being and make further calculations." Qu Xin said, sitting down again, as if he had accepted his fate, "But if you rush out... you will only die. ."

Almost as he finished speaking, a roar came from very close to the house: "People in the house, listen, you are surrounded!"
