Chapter 166 Finding the Source of the Poison
Song Wanyin heard it all clearly and thought there must be something fishy going on, so after the little beggars left, she took Tiancheng into the dilapidated temple.
"Sweet Orange, let's split up and search. I think there are some remaining Ink Bone Sand hidden here."
Upon hearing this, Tiancheng suddenly realized what was going on and started to dig up the hay, not even leaving out the edges and corners.
“Girl, you are right, maybe this is the nest where they hide the poison.
I guess the mastermind behind the scenes never thought that we would be able to see through their conspiracy."
Half an hour later, they had almost turned the ruined temple upside down, even checking every floor tile. Finally, they found a tattered box behind the statue of the temple. They removed the hay on it and opened it, and found that it was full of ink bone sand.
Song Wanyin's heart tightened, and she suddenly realized that perhaps there was some danger hidden here.
"Sweet Orange, please give me a hand, let's carry this box back."
Tiancheng also realized the seriousness of the situation. He didn't expect that the source of the poison was hidden here. No wonder Jishidiang was inexplicably burdened with the stigma of selling fake drugs.
"Girl, who on earth wants to murder us?
They actually thought of using these little beggars to poison people. They thought of such a shady trick. Aren’t they afraid of ghosts knocking on their doors in the middle of the night? "
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of eerie laughter came from all directions and echoed in the sky above the ruined temple.
Tian Cheng was so frightened that he trembled all over, and suddenly let go of his hand. The box fell to the ground with a plop, and he said tremblingly:
"No, no way? In broad daylight, this dilapidated temple is actually haunted?"
Song Wanyin was startled and turned around suddenly, only to find seven or eight dark shadows slowly walking out from the darkness.
These people were all dressed in black, with black scarves on their faces and long, shining swords in their hands.
"Haha, you guys are really brave. You actually came here?"
Song Wanyin vigilantly turned the ring on her index finger, ready to release the poison at any time and take the opportunity to escape.
"Who are you? If you have the guts, show your true colors instead of playing dirty tricks behind people's backs.
Even if I win, it’s not a fair victory.”
One of the men in black had a sinister look in his eyes and sneered:
"Humph, you don't need to know who we are. As long as you are willing to hand over the box, we may be able to leave you with an intact body."
Song Wanyin knew in her heart that the real purpose of these men in black was the poison in the box. It seemed that they were the accomplices behind the scenes.
She quickly looked around and found a lot of discarded wooden sticks in the dilapidated temple, so she winked at Tiancheng.
Tiancheng immediately understood and nodded, then quickly hid aside.
Song Wanyin pretended to be afraid and walked towards the men in black, holding the ring tightly in her hand, pretending to beg for mercy:
“Please, don’t hurt us.
I can give you all my belongings and this box, and I beg you to spare our lives."
Seeing that he was a grown man but was as timid as a mouse, the men in black relaxed their guard and started to mock him.
"Look at you, you are such a coward. Your life is actually worthless."
"It's not impossible to spare you, but if you kneel down and kowtow, bark like a dog, and crawl under our crotch, maybe we can consider letting you go."
"How much silver do you have? Take it out now. If it's too little, both of you will die immediately."
"Look at your delicate skin and tender flesh. You don't look like a man at all. Are you a sissy?"
Song Wanyin faced their extreme humiliation without taking it to heart at all, and just treated it as a group of mad dogs barking.
Suddenly, she took advantage of the black-clad men's unpreparedness and released the poison with a violent wave of her hand.
The man in black who was closest to Song Wanyin was immediately poisoned, and soon he began to bleed from all seven orifices, and fell to the ground with a thud.
Seeing this, the other men in black angrily swung their long swords and slashed at Song Wanyin.
Song Wanyin was not afraid at all. She used the broken tables, chairs and benches in the ruined temple as weapons and engaged in a fierce fight with the men in black.
When one of the men in black was about to chop Song Wanyin's shoulder with his knife, there was a dull thud, and the man's eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Tian Cheng's face flushed red, and she held a wooden stick high in both hands. She turned to stare at the men in black with a fierce look, and said bravely:
"Come on, if you have the guts, come at me together, I'm incredibly strong now!"
Upon seeing this, the other men in black immediately rushed forward, shouting. The blades reflected a faint cold light, burning Tiancheng's eyes.
The next moment, Tian Cheng was running around in the ruined temple, avoiding the pursuit of the men in black, and burst into a sharp cry:
"Ahhh! Someone, help! Someone's killing me!"
At the critical moment, a figure fell from the sky, raised the sword in his hand and steadily blocked the long knife that was slashing in front of Tiancheng, and the sound of swords clashing came to his ears.
Then, a big hand lifted up Tiancheng's collar and he flew away from the encirclement of the men in black.
Tiancheng was still screaming in fear, and felt his body forming a beautiful parabola in the air, and then fell heavily on a pile of thick hay.
"Ouch, I fell so hard, my waist is almost broken."
Song Wanyin looked in the direction of the sound and saw a white shadow flashing among the group of men in black, fighting a desperate battle with them.
It’s Bai Shaobo!
She immediately took this opportunity to pull up Tiancheng, and the master and servant worked together to carry the box away from this place of trouble.
Two of the men in black saw that they were trying to run away and immediately broke free and slashed at them with their knives.
"Want to run? It's not that easy!"
At the same time, two figures descended from the sky, waving sharp swords in their hands to block the attacks of the long swords, and fought with the two men in black without saying a word.
Song Wanyin was suddenly shocked, and carefully distinguished the two figures. Seeing that their martial arts moves were swift and vigorous, their movements were smooth and graceful, and their postures were elegant and neat, she said in surprise:
"Aren't they the secret guards around Senior Brother?"
Could it be that my senior brother was worried about my safety, so he sent secret guards to protect me in secret?
Song Wanyin and Tiancheng knew that it was not advisable to stay here for long, so they quickly carried the boxes and left the ruined temple.
Along the way, Tiancheng was grimacing in pain from the pain in her waist, but she didn't dare to delay at all. Her face turned red with anxiety, and she gritted her teeth and persevered.
If this person was unlucky, even drinking cold water would get stuck in his teeth, but fortunately, he managed to save his life.
On the way back, Song Wanyin had been thinking of a countermeasure in her mind, wanting to find out the mastermind behind the scenes as soon as possible and seek justice for those poor patients.
After returning to Jishidiang, in order to avoid alerting the enemy, Song Wanyin temporarily placed the box in the room where she rested.
She now fully suspected that there was an insider in Jishidiang who was the mastermind behind the incident. As long as this pest was caught, she would be able to trace the mastermind.
