Chapter 1963: Kill, Kill
After Lin Yuelan said that she wanted to test the water, someone poked his companion beside him and asked in a low voice,” Hey, what’s going on? Why can’t I even drink water? We’ve travelled for so long. We’re really tired and thirsty!”
This companion was quite meticulous. He looked around and frowned slightly. Then, he said,” In a place like this, it’s better to be vigilant!” What if someone poisoned the water?
He didn’t say it out loud, but he had a feeling.
“Alright, let’s bring the water over and let the princess take a look. The princess’s medical skills are brilliant. Along the way, we’ve encountered many instances where we would have been poisoned if not for the princess. It’s better to be careful in this desolate mountain!”
“Hmm, what you said makes sense!”
After saying that, they filled up the water and went to show it to Lin Yuelan.
Because the water source was flowing, no one knew where the water was drugged.
Therefore, everyone who drank water from the river had to bring it over for inspection.
On the other side, the bandits who were lying in ambush at the side of the stream were dumbfounded when they saw the guards taking the water from the river and bringing it over for inspection.
“Big brother, this…” Zhu Gouzi pointed at the resting person in surprise and said,” What should we do?”
They didn’t poison them in the beginning because they had expected that in such a place, this team would be cautious.
But what they didn’t expect was that this princess of Guguo was really f * cking cunning.
She actually tested the drinking water one by one!
This way, as long as one of them was found to be poisoned, it would be easy to expose that there were robbers and ambushes there.
Big Brother patted his shoulder with a faint smile and comforted him,” Don’t worry, Gouzi. My poison is colourless and odourless. It can’t be detected at all. Besides, even if they don’t drink this water, they might be poisoned if they smell it.”
Zhu Gouzi immediately reacted and gave his boss a thumbs up. He said happily,” Big Brother, you’re really smart. I admire you!”
After saying that, his eyes were still fixed on the teams that went up to Lin Yuelan one by one.
However, he realized that no one poured away the water in their hands. Instead, after checking, they returned to their original spots, sat down, and rested to drink water.
What did this mean?
This meant that the highly skilled princess did not find any problems at all.
At the thought of this, disdain appeared in his eyes. He said,” Pfft, what kind of divine doctor is this? She can’t even detect the water that was drugged.”
At this point, he looked at his boss like a lackey and said fawningly,” If there’s a G.o.dly doctor, it should be you, boss.”
The boss glanced at him and said,” You talk too much.” However, the smug expression on his face could not be suppressed at all.
In his heart, he looked down on this princess of the Guguo who had the reputation of a divine doctor.
Zhu Gouzi looked at the line of people queuing up to get water for inspection and asked,” Big Brother, when can we take action?”
The boss waved his hand and said seriously,” Wait!”
“Good!” Although Zhu Gouzi didn’t quite understand, he believed his boss’s words.
After an unknown period of time, Zhu Gouzi saw that group of people suddenly fall one by one.
Someone immediately shouted in panic,” Oh, this water is poisonous! Protect the princess!”
Except for a few people who didn’t seem to be poisoned, the rest of the guards were lying on the bed and didn’t have the strength to get up.
The captain of the guards immediately stood in front of Lin Yuelan to protect her. His face was stern and alert as he shouted,” Who’s there? Come out!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a burst of arrogant laughter.
“If you want to cross this path, leave behind your money!”
Along the way, many people immediately stood out from a corner of the mountain and surrounded them.
Then, under the protection of these people, two people walked out.
One was a young man dressed in white, holding a feather fan, dressed like a scholar, and the other was a thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey-like cheeks, carrying a large sabre on his shoulder.
Jiang Zhennan narrowed his sharp eyes and asked sharply,” Who are you? The bandits of the Seven Fork Ridge?”
The man in white’s expression froze, but he nodded calmly and replied,” That’s right!”
Then, Zhu Gouzi said arrogantly,” I heard that this team belongs to Princess Gu of Longyan Kingdom, right?”
