Chapter 351 Danger (Part 2)

There was a fire in the house, with water boiling on top of it. The fire was raging, but the water hadn't boiled yet. It seemed that the fire had just been lit, and these people wanted to get some hot water to drink.

Wen Jing climbed onto the roof, peeled off the tiles, revealing a small gap, and threw a large piece of dirty stuff into the pot on the fire.

Wen Jing found this thing in the yard. She didn't throw it all away. She hung a small bit in the gap, and watched the dirt on the roof fall down.

Fortunately, the jar was old and had no lid, so Wen Jing was able to get it out easily.

When the water became dirty, someone poured it out and went to the yard to get new water to boil. The remaining water in the buckets in the yard had been drugged by Wen Jing in advance.

Seeing that her plan was successful, she hid in the dark and waited quietly for those people to drink the hot water and fall asleep.

It was cold that day, and although the people in the house were warming themselves by the fire, they were still shivering with cold because the house was old and leaky. No one would refuse a bowl of hot water at this time.

The old house is now empty. The people who used to live in it have earned enough money and have moved to the city.

The men in the house talked about the original owner of the house, and their tone was quite envious. The life goal of the people in this village was to make enough money and then leave this damn place.

Wen Jing listened to these people's conversation and couldn't help feeling sad. The power of money is sometimes really strong. The people in this village have been distorted and lost their humanity.

The men drank the water and the medicine quickly took effect.

When the people in the room started snoring loudly, Wen Jing made sure that everyone had confessed before she tiptoed in.

Not only was she brave, she had tested the efficacy of the medicine at Dazhu's house. She pinched Dazhu's mother hard, but Dazhu's mother did not wake up.

So she knew the medicine was effective enough, so she dared to break into the house.

After the door was pushed open, Ye Shouren looked up, and when he saw the visitor Wen Jing, he widened his eyes in surprise.

Wen Jing ignored Ye Shouren, walked to his side, untied the ropes around him, then pulled the cloth from his mouth and said to him:

"Let's leave now."

"Are you just leaving like this? If we leave, they will definitely destroy the cave, and then our trip will be in vain. You shouldn't be exposed, so why don't you continue to hide?"

"Why are you hiding? Those people want to kill you. If I don't come, tomorrow I will just watch them notify your mother to collect your body."

Ye Shouren was shocked when he heard this. He stood up and stretched his legs while saying:

"They actually wanted to kill me directly. These villagers are really tough. They want to control the poison and kill people. They are also quite decisive."

Wen Jing did not respond to Ye Shouren's words. They didn't know when the villagers would find out about this, so they had to set off quickly and go as far as possible.

The sky was dark and the air was cold. Wen Jing, who was wearing thin clothes, was shivering as she walked on the road, but she didn't care about the cold. She looked around and walked quickly out of the village.

Under Wen Jing's leadership, the two escaped from Wangjia Village safely.

When they arrived outside Wangjia Village, Wen Jing asked Ye Shouren what his purpose was in coming to this village. She was still very curious about it.

At this point, Ye Shouren no longer concealed it and took the initiative to tell everyone that he had discovered that Ye Detang had a special relationship with this village and that he was going to investigate his relatives himself.

Wen Jing didn't expect that there was such a secret behind Ye Shouren's coming to this village. She didn't know what to say for a moment. She thought to herself that it was no wonder that she felt Ye Shouren was hesitating when she first asked.

It is normal for him to hesitate when it comes to his biological relatives, but I don't know why he is willing to talk about it now.

"Why did you seem reluctant to tell me the last time I asked you, but now you tell me so easily?"

Ye Shouren was stunned when he heard this. He lowered his head and did not respond to Wen Jing's words.

Seeing that Ye Shouren didn't want to talk, Wen Jing tactfully stopped asking.

Although the two were talking, their pace did not slow down. Now they had to work hard to get out of the mountain.

If those people found out that they were gone, they would be doomed.

Wen Jing was a martial artist who had participated in many kinds of training, so it was natural that he walked with great vigor.

It was a pity for Ye Shouren, a man like him, who was exhausted and panting after following Wen Jing, spinning around in circles, and didn't dare to say a word of rest.

After following Wen Jing's pace for more than two hours, Ye Shouren finally couldn't hold on any longer and suddenly sat down on the ground, breathing heavily.

The movement behind her made Wen Jing wipe her sweat guiltily. It was really not Ye Shouren's fault for being a weak chicken. She was leading the way at the fastest marching speed. It was a miracle that Ye Shouren could hold on for an hour.

Even though Wen Jing was trying to play a trick on her, she had no other choice because she had to speed up and get as far away from the village as possible.

Ye Shouren was too tired to walk anymore. Thinking that they were far enough away from the village, she told him that they could stop and rest for a few minutes before continuing.

When she was walking, her body was still warm and Wen Jing didn't feel cold. But when she stopped, the heat from her body dissipated and she started to feel so cold that her teeth started to chatter.

When she really left, Wen Jing took a large cotton jacket from the man who had fainted in the room and put it on.

Unfortunately, it didn't seem to be of much use. She had worn a single layer of clothes before to facilitate movement, but she had misjudged the temperature difference between day and night in the mountains, so she caught a cold.

Although she was walking quickly with Ye Shouren at this moment, her steps were actually very weak because she had a fever and her head was a little dizzy.

Not long after stopping, Ye Shouren discovered that something was wrong with Wen Jing. Seeing Wen Jing trembling with gritted teeth, he asked with concern:

"Wen Jing, aren't you cold?"

"Not cold." Wen Jing shook her head.

But her trembling voice betrayed her.

Ye Shouren didn't think too much and immediately unbuttoned his coat, wanting to put it on Wen Jing, but Wen Jing stopped him:

"You can put it on yourself. I can handle it. The temperature in the mountains is at least several degrees below zero. If you don't wear a coat, you will probably freeze to death in the mountains. My physical fitness is better than yours anyway.

Don't worry, I have a cold and my body is naturally cold. The cotton-padded jacket is enough for me. We should leave quickly. If the villagers find out that we have run away and chase us, it will be troublesome. ”

As he spoke, Wen Jing stood up, took a long breath, and continued to walk forward. Ye Shouren had no choice but to hurry up and follow him. It was still warmer to walk in this weather. It would be freezing to death if he sat there for a long time.

The two were walking quite fast, but as they walked, they heard noisy footsteps coming from behind. They turned around and saw a long dragon of torches on the opposite hilltop.

This frightened the two men, they thought they could drag it out until dawn, but they didn't expect the villagers to catch up so quickly.

Those villagers were well prepared, in good health, and carrying torches, so they naturally walked faster than Wen Jing, a patient, and Ye Shouren, a spoiled old man.

Seeing the crisis coming, Wen Jing made a prompt decision:

"Don't go down the road anymore. Hide in the forest. Hurry up and go into the forest. If we follow the mountain road, we will definitely be chased."
