Whether Sun Yixie and Chunkong's actions went smoothly or not, we will not discuss here for the time being. Let's talk about it in two parts, and let's go back to earlier that night...that is, at 3:00am.
Huang Donglai followed You Jing out of the Tianqi Gang's headquarters and headed straight for the No-Return Building.
At this point, there were not many pedestrians on the street, and the two of them walked along without encountering anyone or anything.
On the way, Huang Donglai wanted to chat with You Jing several times, but the other party only used perfunctory or covert methods such as "um", "yeah", "I don't know" to deal with him.
Huang Donglai understood that You Jing should be the kind of person who is impenetrable and extremely good at keeping secrets. It was impossible to extract information from him using conventional methods; of course, he didn't think so at first.
It would be so easy...
When Sun and Huang made the plan, they had already speculated that the Lord would probably send someone to take Huang Donglai somewhere tonight and drug Huang Donglai in the name of getting medicine or treatment. However, they did not expect that the place they were going to would be unknown.
When I returned to the building, I didn't expect that the person leading the way would be You Jing.
But now that the matter has come to this, Huang Donglai can only adapt to circumstances.
Not long after, Huang Donglai followed You Jingxing to the door of No Return Building.
As mentioned before, this restaurant is only doing good business at night. Although the martial arts heroes who participated in the Heroes Banquet tonight are not able to come to patronize, the lobby on the first floor still has an attendance rate of more than 50% at this moment.
Fortunately, Huang Donglai and You Jing were not conspicuous to begin with, and people who were not involved in the world didn't know Huang Donglai, so when they walked through the lobby and walked up to the second floor, not many people paid attention to them.
After arriving at the "Zhixian Pavilion" on the second floor, Xue Tui would not come out to greet the guests without being informed, let alone Yuan Fangzhi and Zhang Ergui from the kitchen.
Therefore, You Jing led Huang Donglai and went directly to the "Si Hui Ju" on the third floor.
Why did you give this layer this name? Quite simply, it was Gu Qiying reminding herself that what she was doing was ultimately dirty, and it was the most vicious deed that people in the world despised.
"Voodoo" is not the same as using poison. The purpose of using poison is just to kill or injure people. This is actually the same as using martial arts or hidden weapons to injure people. However, "Vox" is not the same as using poison.
It is to make people unable to wish for life, unable to wish for death, life is worse than death, and they cannot die well... It is really against humanity.
To put it metaphorically, one is similar to using weapons to kill enemy soldiers in war, and the other is similar to using extremely cruel methods to torture prisoners of war to death.
Bai Ruhong is a living example. Even if a person like him is defeated one day and falls into the hands of his enemy, the other party will just kill him with one sword or stab him a few more times to vent his anger; but now he is tortured into
With such a look, even a member of the evil sect... would not be able to do such a dirty trick.
However, Gu Qiying and Shen Youran were able to do such a thing, just because they kept holding the banner of "revenge" and slowly turned it into something similar to faith, so without knowing it,
While sleeping, they convinced themselves and gradually felt that they could do whatever they wanted...
And the name of "Si Hui Ju" is just a formality. It's like an imperial edict issued by the emperor to deceive one's own conscience. By showing it to others, it feels like one has really admitted his mistake.
, and it seems as if a corresponding price has been paid.
"Brother You, why is it so dark here?" Huang Donglai asked this question immediately after reaching the third floor.
But at the same time, he also understood why You Jing asked him not to put down the lantern in his hand after entering the No-Return Building.
"This is the master's arrangement." You Jing did not explain the specific reason, just this sentence was enough; after saying this, he immediately changed the subject, "Mr. Huang, I will get you medicine, you are here
Wait here for a moment."
"Ah, fine, go ahead." Huang Donglai agreed casually.
You Jing glanced at him again, then turned around and walked towards the depths of the third floor.
Because he and Huang Donglai each took a lantern in their hands when they went out, Huang Donglai still had something to light up after he left. Otherwise, in this place in the middle of the night, he would really not be able to see anything.
But actually...it's useless to see it.
The layout of the third floor is mainly divided into three areas: the first area is the area after coming up from the stairs. It is basically an empty buffer space with nothing, not even a place to sit. Huang Donglai is here
I'll stand here for a while.
The second area is the boss, Gu Qiying's room. The door of that room is on the edge of the first area. Gu Qiying is not here at the moment, so the door is naturally closed; and what are the things in that room?
...Even You Jing is not very clear about it, because when he usually goes in to deliver food and fill the chamber pot, he always rushes in and out quickly. He doesn't stay too much and doesn't dare to look around.
The third area, which is also the largest group of spaces on the third floor, is connected by a corridor in the corner of the first area; follow that path inward, bypassing the master room, and there are several larger rooms behind it.
There is a room filled with various materials and tools needed for refining Gu. There are also two rooms similar to "laboratories". One is heated by a stove all year round, and the other is kept cold with thousands of years of ice.
What You Jing was going to at this time was a warehouse containing various finished Gus; the "Baishun Pill" that Gu Qiying ordered him to give Huang Donglai to eat was actually called "Baishun Gu". After being infected by the Gu,
You must take specific antidotes regularly, otherwise you will suffer from the heart-gnawing insects.
The effect of this Gu is not as powerful as the Bliss Gu, and the finished product is a pill that looks very big, and the taste is very strong. Under normal circumstances, it is unlikely that anyone would take it voluntarily, but now "Give Huang Dong" is used to treat it.
In the name of "physical abnormality", it was natural for him to eat it.
Not long after, You Jing came back with a palm-sized white porcelain medicine bottle. Huang Donglai was still standing there, seemingly not taking a step away.
"Master Huang, the medicine has been obtained." You Jing said and handed over the medicine bottle.
Huang Donglai casually took the medicine bottle, opened the mouth of the bottle and poured out one pill, then came closer and smelled: "Fuck! Fuck!"
He suddenly cursed two words loudly, which startled You Jing.
"What does this smell like? It's fishy and strong. You can't even mix it with garlic, right?" Huang Donglai said, shaking his head, "No, no, no... Such a big pill, and it's so strong."
It tastes like this and I definitely won’t be able to swallow it dry. I might choke to death.”
"Uh..." Upon hearing this, You Jing felt that this was reasonable. Not to mention Huang Dong's arrival, he felt reluctant to accept it, so he continued, "I'm sorry, it was an oversight. I'm going to get the young master a cup of tea right now.
.”
Having said this, he wanted to turn around and leave, but he thought it was wrong...
"Wait a minute... Could this guy be trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain, and then change the medicine while I'm not paying attention?" At this moment, You Jing thought to himself, his footsteps stopped unconsciously, and he didn't dare to look from Huangdong.
The body was moved away.
However, nominally speaking, he was ordered to get anti-disease medicine for Huang Donglai, so there was no reason to guard against him like this. Furthermore... there was no sign that Huang Donglai was guarding against him; if such an operation caused him to
Wouldn't it be self-defeating if it arouses the other party's suspicion?
Just when You Jing was hesitating, unexpectedly...
"Hey~ Why did you go out of your way to pour it?" Huang Donglai actually took the initiative to help him out, "It's so dark here, there's not even a place to sit. Can't we just go down together?"
You Jing thought right, why should I let him swallow the medicine here? Besides, I was going downstairs to pour him some water.
"Oh! Yes, Mr. Huang's words make sense." Thinking of this, You Jing nodded quickly and took advantage of the donkey path down the slope, "Then... Mr. Huang, please..."
"Okay." Huang Donglai agreed, and then raised his hand to put the medicine bottle into his arms with a very natural movement.
"Hey!" When You Jing saw this, he felt nervous again and couldn't help shouting.
"Huh? What's wrong?" At this second, Huang Donglai's hand had reached halfway, and half of the medicine bottle was already in his lapel. But as soon as he heard You Jing's call, he could not help but feel that the medicine bottle was about to leave the other party's sight.
He stopped before.
"This medicine bottle... I'd better hold it for the young master first." You Jing also thought out of a hurry, "Lest the smelly smell get on the young master's clothes."
"Ah? Oh, right." Huang Donglai put on a look of realization, then took out the medicine bottle with disgust and stuffed it back into You Jing's hand, "Yes, yes... come on, take it."
, when I’m ready to eat later, just give me another one.”
You Jing took the medicine bottle and looked at it carefully. It was indeed the same bottle. Combined with Huang Donglai's reaction, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself: "It seems that this kid is really unprepared. I am overthinking it."
.”
So, You Jing put the medicine bottle in his arms and made a "please" gesture.
Huang Donglai passed in front of him leisurely and walked along the stairs to the second floor, with You Jing following closely behind.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the small reception hall on the second floor.
Huang Dong found a chair and sat down casually, while You Jing ran to pour him tea; the hot water was ready, and You Jing came back within two minutes.
"Sir, the tea has arrived...it's not very hot." You Jing poured Huang Donglai a cup of tea, and at the end he added something that seemed to urge him to take medicine quickly.
Huang Donglai responded: "Oh, okay, Brother You, you can sit down too."
"No, no, You're just a servant... It's appropriate to stand." Although You Jing's martial arts is much higher than Huang Donglai's, he did not do anything arrogant and his attitude was still polite. After all, he had learned from his master.
The order Bian received was just to drug Huang Donglai, not to fall out and silence him.
"It's okay, it's just you and me now. Besides, we all work for the Lord. If you stand and I sit, how uncomfortable would I be?" Huang Dong said, showing a rather cordial attitude.
"Hey, Brother You, if you don't sit down, then I can stand up..."
"You can't help but...I'll just sit down." You Jing could only sit down now, but it wasn't a good sit - he only sat on half a stool, and his upper body was stretched straight, so he didn't dare to
He leaned back in his chair as if he wanted to get up at any moment.
During the next period of waiting for the tea to cool down, there was no conversation between the two, which was a little awkward.
However, the silence did not last long. Huang Donglai finally spoke first: "Brother You, it's almost time. Give me the medicine."
"Okay." You Jing responded, and immediately reached for the medicine in his arms, and then...
"Hiss-" When he put his hand into his arms, You Jing's hand suddenly felt a stinging pain. However, as a martial arts practitioner, he could still endure this level of pain, so he endured it.
Pain took out the medicine bottle.
At this time, You Jing realized that the color of the bottle had changed. It was a white porcelain bottle, but now it had turned gray-brown, and the area where he felt pain on his hand was also stained with this color.
He lowered his head and looked, no... the color had already partially dyed through his coat, and it was located near his heart.
"Well -" At this moment, he realized belatedly that his heart seemed to hurt a little...
"What's wrong? Brother You, do you feel a little out of breath?" Huang Donglai was very careful. When he asked this question, he had already stood up from the chair and took a few steps back, away from You Jing.
"You!" You Jing knew he had fallen into a trap, so he rushed to his luck and used his internal strength to seal the acupuncture point at his heart.
However... he was unlucky, and as soon as he was lucky, his heart stopped beating.
In less than a minute, You Jing fell to the ground and died.
Huang Donglai looked at the other party's corpse and snorted coldly, muttering to himself: "Play poison with me... ha... just you?"
…………
It didn't take Huang Donglai much time to move You Jing's body back to the third floor. After all, Brother Huang just couldn't use his internal strength, and the strength of a martial arts practitioner was still there.
After laying out the body, Huang Donglai first disposed of the poisoned bottle, and then searched You Jing's body. As a result... except for a soft sword hidden on his waist, he turned out to be...
Nothing was found - not even a key.
This is very strange...
Huang Donglai knew that the boss of Bugui Building, that is, the Lord lived in the "Si Hui Ju" on the third floor. On the night when he and Sun Yixie came for dinner, they had already discussed this matter with Xue
I found out through the chat on Twitter. After all, this is not a secret. Many people in the city know it.
However, as a confidant who delivers meals to the boss every day, You Jing does not have the key to any room on the third floor, which is obviously abnormal; even if the boss has the key to the room on his person, the keys to other rooms are not with him.
Jing must have it, otherwise how could he have opened the door when he went to the back room to get the medicine?
Huang Donglai would not ignore an anomaly like this. He and Sun Yixie are both extremely cautious people...especially when they are personally involved in danger, their level of shrewdness and prudence will instantly increase by several levels.
.
Huang Donglai stood there thinking for a moment, then picked up the sword on You Jing's waist and cut off one of You Jing's hands cleanly. After the excess blood on that hand had almost flowed out, Huang Donglai used
Taking You Jing's hand with his own, he gently pushed the door of the Lord's room.
At this time, Huang Donglai didn't know that this room was the Lord's room because no one had told him. It was just because the door of this room was the first door he could see after stepping onto the third floor, so he tried it from this room.
rise.
squeak - squeak -
The wooden door panel was slowly pushed open, and there was a trembling sound in the darkness.
This door is not locked at all.
Huang Donglai reacted extremely quickly. After he discovered that the door was unlocked, his first action was to cover his mouth and nose with his sleeves; this... can also be said to be the basic accomplishments of a person who comes from a poisonous family.
You have arrived at a place where very valuable things are supposed to be placed, but the entrance to this place is not hidden and there are no security measures at all. Why? There are only two possibilities. First, the owner here is a retarded person; second, in fact,
"On guard", but you can't see it.
At this moment, Huang Donglai glanced inside the door with the light of the lantern. When he saw a lit incense burner in the corner of the room emitting wisps of green smoke, he immediately confirmed that this was an anti-theft measure.
, at least one of them.
Thinking of this, he quickly walked into the room, covering his mouth and nose, extinguished the incense burner, and then quickly exited the room, leaving the door open.
After doing this, Huang Donglai did not wait for the smell in the room to dissipate. Instead, he turned to the corridor next to him and walked towards the warehouses in the direction that You Jingqi went...
