Chapter 304: Senior Sister, Are You Hurt?
Xiu Ming carried the seriously injured and unconscious Deng Yan'an on his back, stepped over the corpses and ran to the kitchen.
His steps were too fast, and coupled with the weight of Deng Yan'an on his back, he almost fell.
After a brief pause, he observed that the people in front of him, who seemed to be suffocated, were actually still breathing weakly.
He shook a few people nearby, and seeing that they didn't react much, he pulled their wrists and felt their pulses.
After taking their pulses and smelling the special smell in the air, Xiu Ming frowned nervously.
At first he thought that the smell was just the smell of something burning, but now he realized that it was clearly a special kind of drug.
And the people here are obviously all drugged.
If you don't want to go out and be burned to death, you can only wait here and be knocked unconscious by the drugs.
I wonder what they will experience after being knocked unconscious?
Who took him away?
Still, I didn't feel any pain as I was engulfed by the fire.
These people are all from Nanxin.
Xiu Ming felt that if King Changle were here, he would definitely not ignore them.
He quickly ran to the kitchen, reunited with Deng Youning and Ying Shi, and informed Deng Youning of his discovery.
Deng Youning also had a frown on his face, looking nervous and worried.
She knew that practicing meditation could save these people.
In fact, she really couldn't bear to abandon the people here.
Even if it’s just for Li Tianzhuo, we must help him save his people.
"Xiu Ming, Ying Shi, my cousin is seriously injured and my cousin is missing. You take my cousin away first, and I will stay to save others."
"After you settle your cousin, you can find someone to put out the fire. I will try my best to save everyone and help them survive for a while."
Deng Youning plans to stay and face the danger alone.
Xiu Ming and Ying Shi were reluctant at first. How could they be guards and maids as they left their master alone to face danger?
But after all, Deng Youning is the only one who has the ability to detoxify everyone. Even if Xiu Ming and Ying Shi leave, it will be useless without Deng Youning's blood.
Helplessly, they could only take Deng Yan'an and leave first.
Deng Yan'an's injuries were very serious. In addition to the bloody hole in his abdomen, his limbs were covered with wounds and he had serious internal injuries.
His condition is the worst. If he doesn't find a doctor for treatment quickly, he will probably die here today.
"I'll leave my cousin to you two!"
Deng Youning said solemnly, pushed open the door, and watched them go out personally.
The three of them rushed out of the fire wearing only one quilt, leaving the remaining two quilts to Deng Youning.
When Deng Youning came to the lobby of the inn again, all the guests had fainted on the ground.
Some of them were trying hard not to lose consciousness, but they didn't have the strength to get up.
Looking at them, they really looked like dead bodies.
Deng Youning distributed the antidote pills to those who were still unconscious and could eat on their own.
As for those who were unconscious and unable to open their mouths, she dripped her own blood into their mouths.
Seeing everyone recovering one by one, Deng Youning smiled with relief.
"We...we are not dead yet!"
"What happened just now? Why do I feel dizzy and weak all over?"
"Yes...she saved us!"
The people looked at Deng Youning, confused.
"Everyone, listen up. I am Deng Youning, the Princess of Dongji County. The fire in the inn must have been set by someone with ulterior motives. There was a drug in the fire, and you were all drugged and knocked unconscious."
"Although the fire outside is big, I have observed that as long as we stay here, we can at least hold out for half an incense stick of time."
"This princess has already asked my people to go out and get help. If you trust me, then stay here and wait for help. If you don't trust me, then do as you please."
Deng Youning revealed his identity and gave orders to the people in the commanding tone that a superior should use.
Naturally, there are also knowledgeable people among the common people.
"She said she was the Princess of Dongji? I heard that the Princess is immune to all poisons. Since she saved us and cured us of the drug, she must be the Princess!"
"We trust the princess, so we'll stay here and wait for rescue. Don't worry, the princess is here too!"
"Just wait. Who knows if the rescue she mentioned will come? I'd better go find a way for everyone to survive first. Maybe even the princess herself needs to rely on the way I find to escape."
The crowd immediately split into two factions.
But most people still chose to listen to Deng Youning and wait here obediently.
Those who seek the so-called way out are nothing but desperate criminals.
What they were afraid of was that if the princess really attracted the government officials, they would either be burned to death or die under the government's beheading knife.
Deng Youning naturally wouldn't meddle in these people's affairs.
Everyone has his own destiny.
She stood on the stairs and looked toward the second and third floors.
Since the stairs couldn't be used, she just used her Qinggong skills to fly up.
Xiu Ming didn’t find Han Xian just now, so she wanted to look for him again. If she couldn’t find him, she wouldn’t be able to explain to the Han family.
The wooden floor in the corridor was burned and became very brittle.
Just as she reached the third floor, the floor cracked and just as she was about to fall, a big hand grabbed her wrist.
The man was wearing dark blue clothes with very big sleeves.
The hands and exposed arms are very white.
He exerted a little force and pulled Deng Youning up.
"Sister, you're not hurt, are you?"
Yuan Gu’s enlarged face appeared in Deng Youning’s sight.
Although his voice was gentle and his eyes were full of worry for her, Deng Youning still felt it was disgusting and hateful.
"Did you set the fire at the inn?"
She understood it instantly.
Even though his trick was exposed, Yuan Gu was not in a hurry. He smiled evilly, took a step forward and grabbed Deng Youning's wrist.
"As expected of my senior sister, you really understand me!"
Since he had admitted it, Deng Youning felt that she had nothing to say to him.
She kicked Yuan Gu in the crotch without any hesitation.
In order to dodge, Yuan Gu had to release the hand that was holding her wrist.
Deng Youning felt that the time was right, so he drew his sword and prepared to fight with Yuan Gu's men.
"Sister, don't be so violent."
"Junior brother, I came here today for no other reason than to ask you to take a look at the new poison I prepared."
"If Senior Sister is unwilling to help, I cannot guarantee the life and death of my cousin and the people downstairs."
Yuan Gu sneered and clapped his hands.
His masked men brought up the wounded Han Xian.
At this time, Han Xian was already unconscious.
The wounds on his body were still bleeding.
His injuries were no less serious than Deng Yan'an's, and his life would be in danger if he did not receive treatment to stop the bleeding.
The mysteries in Deng Youning's heart were all solved.
When Deng Yan'an came to find Han Xian just now, he met Yuan Gu's people, which was why he was injured so badly.
Needless to say, the secret guards sent by Li Tianzhuo and those people from the Han family army also suffered at his hands.
“It’s a pity that the dog named Xiu Ming beside King Changle came up too quickly, otherwise, my cousin and junior brother could have been invited.”
Yuan Gu felt it was a pity that he failed to catch Deng Yan'an.
"But don't worry, Senior Sister. I have already sent people to chase them."
"Make sure you bring back my cousin, the guards, and the maid, and settle them properly!"
Yuan Gu said seriously.
The four words "properly settled" at the end are particularly ironic and terrifying.
How can he settle properly?
Kill them all?!
Anger rushed straight to Deng Youning's head.
But she had to force herself to stay calm.
After all, he was outnumbered and had hostages in the hands of the other party.
"I'm very curious, where did your Yuan family find so many experts to work for you?"
