The old monk neither admitted nor denied, but sighed hypocritically.

"You are right, we are not honest and honest people. But all the monks in the temple died of the plague last year, and it has nothing to do with my brothers. In fact, the so-called idlers and villains are just asking for help. Food and clothing. If your family has extra money, share some with your brothers, and we will be happy to make it easier for you."

Knowing that this was just the old monk's tactic of bereavement, Tang Ruilang didn't feel the slightest bit of pity in his heart, but he put on a bewildered look on his face.

"If it's extortion and asking for money, why should I ambush in the paddock and harm people to the crown prince?"

Before the old monk opened his mouth, he heard some bald donkey shout loudly: "Take people's money and eliminate disasters with people. Don't all monks do such things?!"

The group of monks suddenly burst into laughter again, mixed with a few vulgar and crazy words.

Tang Ruilang was not afraid of them either, he just continued to procrastinate: "...No, they all have big bald heads, but I think the ones who assassinated the prince all wore buns... Could it be that your temple has a different division of labor and stays in the house?" The ones in the temple are monk disciples; the ones who go out to 'beg for alms' are lay disciples?"

The old monk seemed to be dragged in by him, opening his mouth to argue.At this time, it was the vicious monk who ran to light the oil lamp again, unable to listen to it, and cursed away with a fire bag in one hand and the lamp oil pot in the other.

"Boss, don't talk nonsense with them! This little bastard is not prepared to tell the truth at all! According to me, I have to use some strong medicine!"

The old monk was silent for a moment, looking at Tang Ruilang: "If you don't tell the truth again, don't blame us for being rude."

Tang Ruilang still smiled: "What is the truth and what is a lie? As a person, I am born to tell the truth like a lie. Do you dare to believe me or not?"

As he said that, he glanced at Lu You.

However, Lu You did not look at Tang Ruilang.

At this moment, all of Lu You's attention was focused on the torch in the hands of the vicious monk—if he could get it, he could burn the ropes of his hands and feet and regain his freedom.

But, how can you get the fire zip?

Lu You couldn't help lowering his head in thought, and suddenly, there was a huge pain in his waist!

It turned out that the vicious monk took advantage of his unpreparedness and kicked him in the side!

The old monk gave another dry laugh, and looked at Tang Ruilang: "If you continue to be dishonest, this little eunuch with red lips and white teeth will probably be in front of you today... and be spoiled by my brothers."

"It's not just ruined!" The evil monk actually chimed in: "After the ruin, it will be chopped up alive to make meat stuffing, and wrapped into buns for you to eat!"

"..."

Lu You gritted his teeth with hatred, but resisted the attack.He crawled and turned his head slightly, and found that Tang Ruilang was also staring at him.

However, Tang Ruilang's amber eyes, which were always gentle and affectionate, became dark and dull at this moment, without the slightest wave and ups and downs.

Immediately afterwards, Lu You saw him move the corner of his mouth, revealing a sneer that had never been seen before.

"The life of a mere eunuch can threaten me? But you guys don't go out to inquire about the name of Lu You, the servant and young supervisor. If you don't hurt him, that's fine. If he wants to have a right or wrong, it's not just you , none of your parents and wives can escape death."

Although he understood that this must be Tang Ruilang's trick to get him, but it was the first time he heard him say such heartless words, Lu You still felt a slight pain in his heart.

Reason and emotion do not always coincide.But it is precisely because of this short-term departure that it proves the real existence of emotion.

He was feeling so emotional, but the group of evil monks laughed strangely up and down.

The old monk also laughed, and after he finished laughing, he said sinisterly: "Brothers who have killed people in this temple for ten years have no family worries. The more tight the baby is. When the two of you were brought here, you were still holding his hand, and you couldn't separate... I advise you, if you really want to rob someone from Lord Hades, you should be obedient Earth, listen to us!"

And the vicious monk who kicked Lu You became more and more arrogant.

"Since you don't care about him, that's just right. It's getting dark anyway, so I'll light a sky lantern to open your eyes right now!"

As he said that, he actually raised the lamp oil can in his hand and poured it on Lu You's body.

There was a bang, and the amber oil droplets splashed in all directions!

The moment the lamp oil poured down, Lu You instinctively closed his eyes and curled up.

Although this seemed to be a passive defensive posture, he was not frightened, and began to think quickly——

This monk wanted to burn him to death, or at least prepared to use burning him as a bargaining chip to coerce Tang Ruilang into a compromise.

However, once Tang Ruilang confessed his identity, no matter if he told the truth or a lie, he would lose his value.It is very likely that they will be burned to death, and they will even be ravaged by those evil monks before they die.

Now that things have happened, it is no longer possible to wait for the rescue of Nei Feilongwei. He must save himself!

Without further ado, Lu You immediately started to resist as soon as he thought about it.He slammed into the vicious monk who kicked him hard, and rubbed the lamp oil all over his body towards him.

The evil monk was caught off guard, and actually stepped back a few steps and fell to the ground.The torch in his hand had already been opened, and even the golden red torch was blown on, but he didn't dare to light it on Lu You, so he could only hold it high in his hand.

Seeing this, the bald donkeys around all rushed forward.However, Tang Ruilang, who was faster than them, jumped over and landed on the evil monk.

"If you want to burn, then burn me to death together!"

The bald donkeys were in a hurry for a while, and then they separated the three again.

The evil monk, who smelled of oil all over his body, took off his outer robe and threw it on Lu You, and kicked him a few times viciously to vent his anger.

"Damn! Boss, I don't think we should do this business. Can't we just give these two boys a good time?!"

"no!"

The old monk was also furious: "The prince's big deal has failed, and the money in hand can't fly anymore!"

At this point, there was a "squeak", and the main entrance of the hall was pushed open again.

This time, it was finally no longer a bald monk who walked in.It was a strange man with a scimitar on his waist, and his whole body was tightly wrapped in a purple-black cloak.

Strange to say, seeing this strange man walk in, the bald donkeys were all quiet for a while.Even the one who was the loudest just now took a step back and hid himself in the crowd.

I saw that strange man swaggering into the hall, first glanced at Tang Ruilang and Lu You who were lying on the ground, and then turned to the old monk.

"Two fruits, Dusu?"

The man spoke with a very strong accent, but the old monk understood it easily and kept nodding his head.

"All of them! They all fell into the trap we dug."

The strange man nodded his head to express his understanding, and then asked: "What do you want for Du Suwu?"

At this moment, the old monk was stunned for a moment, hesitated and said: "One of them has a token on his body. Didn't run away."

"...Not sure?" The strange man asked him back, apparently somewhat dissatisfied.

The old monk hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I will send someone to the Liuquan Li Palace tonight to inquire. If there is anyone missing around the prince, you will know as soon as you inquire."

The strange man also agreed with this approach, so he nodded: "Assassination, all of them will be sent to Li for the time being."

"Yes, yes, yes, yes. I will take care of you, don't worry."

The old monk nodded as if he was pounding garlic, as if the weirdo in front of him was the real leader of their group.After nodding his head, he said another sentence softly.

"Look, we brothers have worked hard without merit. Let's not sell that little eunuch. Look at the other one, should we settle the settlement now..."

"No, two people, my governor wants it."

The weird man was also very straightforward, and took out a money bag embroidered with strange patterns from his arms.The mouth of the bag was facing down, but several black dry leaves poured out.

"Thank you sir, thank you sir!"

When the old monk saw the leaf, he lay down on the ground and picked it up. The monks next to him also jumped up, picked up the leaf and stuffed it into his mouth.

This is... what's wrong with it?

Lu You was a little stunned watching from the side, but heard Tang Ruilang whispering in his ear: "It's a Gu."

"These monks have been poisoned by Gu poison, and they must take the antidote provided by this person regularly to survive."

Tang Ruilang's voice became heavier and heavier.

"Be careful, he is a ghost witch doctor."
