Chapter 403 Midnight attack
Yu Ren chuckled, "How could I? I'm just a butcher! How could I know him? However, I also like to listen to books and have heard many stories about him. These words were also conveyed through the mouths of those storytellers."
When Li Lin heard this, she stopped hunting. She jumped off the horse and sat down on a big rock by the side of the road. "Do you like to listen to his stories? What stories have you heard of him? Is there any latest news about him?"
Yu Ren also got off the horse, squatted beside Li Lin, and chatted with her about her recent situation.
"I heard that he went to the capital after pacifying Shandong."
"Why go to the capital? I heard that he built a base on an island in southern Xinjiang! I heard that he also organized personnel to establish a society or a hospital, specializing in researching some strange things. Why did he suddenly run to the capital again!"
"His second wife is in the capital! I heard that he went to Beijing this time mainly to meet his father-in-law! Isn't there any rumor before that he and his second wife elope! I don't know whether it is true or false."
"Of course it's fake. As an outstanding figure as Yu Ren, her Zhao family can climb up, so Zhao Nanxing doesn't know how to be happy! How could he object? Not to mention being a wife for Yu Ren, or being a concubine for him, Zhao Nanxing would never object! This is obviously fake!"
Yu Ren was a little funny when facing the arbitrary decision of Miss Li, but he did not refute it. He thought to himself, if my father-in-law heard this, I don’t know what he would think.
"Do you think this guy will come to Liaodong?"
Miss Li shook her head very decisively. "No. He has a reason to go to the capital, but there is no reason to go to Liaodong. He is not a court official.
"But I heard that Yu Ren is very interested. His business has already occupied half of the southeast half. He regards business as the foundation of his life struggle. In this way, he will definitely not want the world to be in chaos. People say that harmony makes money, and if the world is in chaos, the business will basically be done. For this reason, it is not impossible for him to come to Liaodong to help the court deal with the Jurchens!"
Miss Li's expression of surprise appeared on her face when she heard Yu Ren's remarks.
"Who did you hear this?"
Yu Ren smiled slightly. "Of course he is a storyteller. I am a pig slaughter, so how could I know these!"
Miss Li stared at Yu Ren seriously, looked him carefully, and couldn't help but sigh, "You pig slaying master, isn't simple!" Then, she suddenly stood up with interest. "Let's go! Go back."
Miss Li took Yu Ren out for a hunting trip, but after a walk, he got nothing, and returned empty-handed. This was the first time in Miss Li's hunting history.
However, although Yu Ren accompanied Miss Li out without hunting prey, Miss Li's attitude towards him had improved significantly. He also specifically instructed Yuqin to arrange a clean room for him so that he would not let him live in a woodshed anymore. In fact, Liu Sangu had already arranged this matter.
Yu Ren's residence was next to Miss Li's room. He slept until midnight that night, and Yu Ren suddenly heard a noise outside.
Yu Ren opened the door and saw a large group of people in the village surrounding a small courtyard next to him. Yu Ren knew that the courtyard was where Liu Sangu lived. Seeing that Li Lin was also wearing clothes and hurried towards the courtyard, Yu Ren hurriedly followed.
When we arrived at the courtyard, we saw more than a dozen strong men forming a circle with swords and swords. Liu Sangu stood in the circle and spoke to a girl sitting on the ground.
"Girl, don't think that you can use poison. Sister, I was walking with my master when I was twelve years old. You, the inferior scent of the fragrance sect, also want to fascinate me. How about it? Now you have tasted the benefits of my poisonous scorpion! Let me tell you, my poisonous scorpion was raised by my master back then, and it is extremely beneficial. Anyone who is bitten by it will rot in less than seven hours and will die in twelve hours. And there is no antidote."
Yu Ren looked closer and looked closely and found that the girl sitting on the ground was Yu Qier. He was shocked. He quickly lined up and walked over.
"Why are you here?"
Yu Qier's face was pale at this time. Seeing Yu Ren, a light suddenly flashed in her eyes. She called her brother-in-law and tears could no longer be controlled.
Yu Ren held her, comforted her softly, and asked, "What the hell is going on?"
Liu Sangu, who was beside him, snorted coldly. "This girl sneaked into my room in the middle of the night and wanted to plot against Mixiang. But she was bitten by my poisonous scorpion."
After hearing this, Yu Ren looked down at Yu Qier and asked.
"No. I just want to get my sword back and then save my brother-in-law and go out. But I can't beat this woman, so I have to..."
Yu Ren understood everything. Yu Qier obviously wanted to charm Liu Sangu, take her sword back, and then take her away. But she didn't expect that Liu Sangu was an expert in using poison, but instead fell into her tricks.
Yu Ren said to Liu Sangu, "Master, please give Xiaoyu the antidote! I think she shouldn't really be determined to plot against you."
Liu Sangu shook her head. "I have already said it just now. This poisonous scorpion was still given to me by my master. There is no antidote."
After hearing this, Yu Qier's face changed drastically. But she quickly calmed down again. Her eyes were on Yu Ren's face and slowly became gentle.
"Brother-in-law, can you take me out of here? I don't want these people to see my jokes."
Yu Ren nodded, picked up Yu Qier and walked out of the courtyard. Liu Sangu did not stop him, and the others also saw that Liu Sangu did not say anything, so naturally no one stopped him.
Yu Ren held Yu Qier and walked out of Lijia Village, and came to a grass outside the village. The moonlight shone the grass particularly brightly. Yu Ren put Yu Qier on the ground.
"Brother-in-law. I think I'm going to die. Actually, there is something I haven't told you. If I don't say it now, I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future."
Yu Ren patted Yu Qier's little hand, "Don't worry. I think the third aunt's words must be scaring you. I will go and talk to her later. I will ask your antidote anyway."
Yu Qier shook her head, "No. I don't want you to beg her. Brother-in-law, there is actually one thing I hide from you and didn't tell you the truth."
Yu Ren looked at Yu Qier in confusion, wondering why she had to tell her this at this time. Now, what is more important than getting the antidote! Although Yu Ren didn't know if the poisonous scorpion really had no antidote, he knew one thing very well. The scorpion was highly toxic, and if it was not treated in time, Yu Qier might be in danger.
But Yu Qier didn't let him go to Liu Sangu to ask for the antidote. He didn't know that this was because Yu Qier felt that she would die at any time, so she didn't want Yu Ren to leave. She just hoped that Yu Ren could be with her when she died.
Although Yu Ren was anxious to ask about the antidote, he did not mean to disobey Yu Qier, but instead held her in his arms.
"You said! I'm listening!"
Yu Qier slowly took out a small bottle from her arms, twisted the bottom of the bottle a few times, poured out a small pill from it and handed it to Yu Ren.
"Actually, I have never told you the truth. I have an antidote for this kind of scented poison in you. But I am afraid that after you recover from the recovery from the understanding medicine, I will no longer be able to control you, so I deliberately said that there was no antidote, and only gave you a noodle pill with a little antidote.
I always thought I had caught you back to Liaoyang for Sister Xiaoqian. But when you were taken away by Liu Sangu that day, I suddenly realized that I was the one who really wanted you to stay by my side. So, I would rather you be like this and be a sick person. Because I know that only such you can belong to me.
If you return to normal, you will definitely leave me. That day, I was in the carriage and it was almost time to reach Pyongyang. At that time, I was wondering what reason to find to let you stay in Pyongyang for a longer time! I even thought about throwing away my belongings on purpose so that we would have no money to hire a ship to sea.
I am a selfish woman, I'm sorry to Sister Xiaoqian. I hope you can forgive me."
