Strange Tale

Several people rushed in and wanted to hold down Si Ren, Si Ren punched and kicked, and people began to pour in from outside the door.

More than half an hour later, due to being unarmed and exhausted, Si Ren was outnumbered and was firmly pressed to the ground by more than a dozen people.A bearded monk and a thin, pale Taoist priest walked in.

Si Ren raised the only head that could still move, "You guys caught me?!"

The Taoist knelt down and patted Si Ren's face, "Your abilities should be more than that, right? Why were you subdued so easily? Why didn't you cast spells?"

"It's not a ghost or a demon, and you can't cast spells casually."

"Huh? You still abide by this?"

The monk poured a glass of water from the teapot on the table and brought it over.

The Taoist took the cup and brought it to Si Ren's mouth, "Are you drinking it yourself or shall I pour it down for you?"

"Is there poison in the water?"

"Poison? Hmph, it can also be called poison."

"Why don't you just kill me?"

"What a waste."

"what?"

The monk stepped forward, "Hurry up, we don't have much time."

The Taoist stopped talking nonsense, and poured a glass of water directly into Si Ren's mouth.Si Ren didn't struggle much.One was that he felt that struggling was useless, and that choking to death was even more uncomfortable. The other was that because he was really thirsty, the water flowing into his throat was sweet and delicious, so he couldn't help but swallowed it all on his own initiative.

Seeing that Si Ren drank the water obediently, the Taoist priest and the monk exited the door, and the other people holding Si Ren also let go of their hands and left the room one after another.

The door was locked again, Si Ren got up and looked at the teapot, thinking: I have already drank it anyway, how about...

Si Ren picked up the teapot and drank it happily in one gulp.

Sitting on the bed, Si Ren began to wait for the onset of toxicity.Although he didn't know what kind of poison it was, he thought that as long as it wasn't a highly poisonous poison that could kill instantly, he would be able to think of a way to detoxify it when he had the symptoms to determine what type of poison it was.

"Small blade!"

There was such a sound from nowhere in the room.

Si Ren turned his head to look around: Are you hallucinating?

"Small blade!"

It's the voice of Kirin, that's right!Si Ren quickly stood on the ground.Taking a closer look, he found that the clothes he had just taken off were moving.Si Ren ran over to take the clothes aside, and Qilin really got out from the hole in the wall under the clothes.

"This is..." Si Ren lay down on the ground and looked into the fist-sized hole.

"It's a mouse hole." Qilin turned into a human form.

Si Ren stood up, "How did you get in?"

"Didn't you see it, go through the mouse hole."

"I'm not asking this. There is a strong barrier outside this house, haven't you been discovered?"

"There is an enchantment, but now the enchantment is very unstable. It seems that the person who set up the border is not around here. And when I came over, I saw Lu Xian and He Ziming outside the yard leading people to fight them."

"Ah?! Then... where is Long Jiu and Ye Chang?"

"did not see it."

Si Ren frowned, "It shouldn't be, why did they run behind Lu Xian and He Ziming... Oh? By the way, how did you find them?"

Qilin told Si Ren about how Lu Xian and He Ziming found Bu Jiguan and Ji Shuangqi woke up, and of course he also told what Ji Shuangqi told him.

After hearing what he said, Si Ren raised his hand to cover his mouth, "It's over."

Qilin looked at him, "Did you drink water too?"

Si Ren nodded, "I even drank a whole pot."

"Are you stupid?! You have no common sense at all!"

"It was they who forced me to drink a cup first. Later, I thought that they had drunk anyway and were very thirsty, so... Now it seems that they will take tougher measures because Lu Xian and He Ziming are going to fight in. , no wonder the monk said that he didn’t have much time. But he still couldn’t figure it out, why did he arrest someone and feed him aphrodisiacs before cutting his second child?”

"Don't think about it yet." Qilin took out a bottle from his arms, "I brought some relief medicine."

"Why 'relief', no antidote?"

"There's no antidote for that kind of thing."

"how come?"

"It's okay to find a way to solve it yourself."

"..."

"Here you are." Qilin handed the medicine bottle to Si Ren, "Take two pills first and press it."

"You take it first."

"what?"

"Shuangqi didn't mean that it would be taken to other places when the effect of the medicine took effect. If you take it now, you will be found to have problems."

"That's right." Qilin put away the medicine bottle again.

"Then according to what you said: Mr. Lu and the others should be the same as you. They didn't follow Long Jiuhe to find here often, but they came directly to Xucheng to inquire about it according to what Shuang Qi said?"

"Well, it should be. This yard is not difficult to find. When you go to the west of the city, just ask anyone about the largest private house and you can find it."

"Have you asked who is the owner of this yard?"

"I asked. He said he was a businessman reselling imported tobacco. His name was Huang Fulai. Everyone in Xucheng seemed to call him Boss Huang."

"That's all? Is it really just selling tobacco?"

"People think I'm a brat and don't like to talk to me. It would be nice if you could tell me where the yard is and what Huang Fulai does. Besides, I'm always worried about you, so I don't have time to ask so many questions."

Si Ren thought about it too, "Well... but there is nothing to worry about, since Lu Xian and He Ziming can find them and you have entered the enchantment, then Long Jiu and the others should be coming soon. Didn't you tell you to watch Huan'er at home? ? Are you bothering Mrs. Ma again?"

"It's because of Huan'er that I'm worried."

"What do you mean?"

"As soon as you left, she got up and kept crying, asking me to save you. Could it be that she overheard what you said you were going to do? But did she understand?"

Si Ren suddenly remembered that the night when You Qi had just sent Huan'er to him, Huan'er had said that he would not be allowed to go to Hao Xiaobao's house, but the next day when he arrived at Hao's house, he fell into a gu.Could it be that……

"I see!" Si Ren slapped his forehead, "Huan'er's heavenly eyes can not only see things that ordinary people can't see, but she can also predict the future."

"Ah? She has this function, she didn't say it earlier!"

"She is so young, how can she understand?"

"But for such a long time, it seems that she hasn't predicted anything."

Si Ren recalled, "You mean, after we left, she woke up and asked you to save me?"

"Hmm... It seems that she is not awake, but just in a daze. When Lu Xian and He Ziming left, she had already fallen asleep again."

"Oh, I understand!"

"What do you understand?"

"It's the same when I was hit by a gu. She told me not to let me go to Hao's house when she was very sleepy and about to fall asleep... Oh, it's too bad!"

"how?"

"If I remember correctly, Huan'er seemed to be talking about the uncle's legs when he was half asleep and half awake last time."

"Uncle?"

"Well, it's not uncommon to say so."

"Ah? Isn't that often... eh? What's the matter with you, Xiao Ren?" Qilin noticed that Si Ren's expression was a bit wrong.

"I..." Si Ren wiped his forehead, "It's so hot."

"Ah, what they gave you is working."

"Then you go back to the mouse hole, someone may come in soon."

Qilin showed his true form, and Si Ren instructed again, "Be careful when you follow, the monk and Taoist priest are no more than ordinary charlatans."

Sitting back on the bed, as the effects of the medicine took effect, Si Ren felt that the time was getting harder and harder.

His body was very hot, his lower abdomen was distended and painful, and Si Ren's mind began to blur. Various strange pictures began to flash in his mind: first, some women he had seen before and thought looked good.Then Long Jiu appeared interspersed among these women.Then there was the appearance of Long Jiu walking towards him naked from the pool of Jicui.He also seemed to smell the smell every time he got close to Long Jiu.In the end, Si Ren even remembered the affair between Chen and Prince Yan that he saw in Long Jiu's dream.

From leaving the ruined temple to now, this was the first time Si Ren thought of this matter.I don't know if it's the effect of the medicine: Although he knew that it wasn't Long Jiu, a trace of jealousy suddenly appeared in Si Ren's heart, and at the same time, his body became hotter and hotter.

With a slap, Si Ren slapped himself hard.

There were several noises outside, and the door opened.More than a dozen people rushed in and held Si Ren down.This time Si Ren didn't resist, but endured his nausea and let the stinky Taoist inspect and grope between his legs.

"Hehe! What a young chicken!" The Taoist seemed a little surprised, and said, he took out a money bag from his arms and threw it to the monk, "You won."

Si Ren gritted his teeth and stared at him, "How did you see that?"

"Haha, if you are good at the art of charming, you must know how to distinguish some things. Why, do you want to learn?"

"Sure enough, it's Meidao."

"Huh? It seems that you know it too. Hehe, I said how could it be such a coincidence to catch someone who knows magic. So, you really attracted those people outside?"

Si Ren guessed that he was talking about Lu Xian and He Ziming.

"Yes, so you'd better release all the captured people quickly."

"Hmph, you're about to lose your life, why are you still thinking about others?"

"What did you give me to drink just now?"

"What do you say?"

Both Si Ren and the Taoist priest looked at each other fiercely and stopped talking.

The monk was impatient again, "Okay, take him away quickly."
