Zhou Tianqi's actions instantly killed San Niang's interest. What a disappointment! So disappointing!
The other people who had taken the laxatives also started having attacks.
A group of men dressed in red were seen fighting over the latrines.
Shen Jiaojiao and the other girl took advantage of the chaos to escape with the rest of the group.
The scene was quite chaotic at one point.
Third Sister was furious and called someone to help her back to her room.
"You bastard! Someone must have deliberately tried to elevate me, just because they can't stand to see me doing well!"
"Don't let me catch the culprit!"
"It completely ruined my mood!"
Third Sister cursed and swore the whole way, her mouth full of all sorts of angry words.
When she reached the door, she leaned against a servant and kicked the door open hard.
Suddenly, a strong stench of feces assaulted her.
Third Sister pushed away the person supporting her and quickly walked to the side to vomit again.
"Who did this? Huh!"
"Investigate! Find out he's been torn apart by five horses!"
The wedding that everyone had been eagerly anticipating ended abruptly, leaving an indelible psychological scar on everyone.
The battle for toilets over there was fierce; only a few lucky ones managed to snag a spot, while most of the unsuccessful people had to run into the woods.
At this moment, the villagers no longer cared whether they would run away, after all, it was too disgusting.
Shen Jiaojiao and her companion hid in the shadows, watching as everyone hastily ate something and dispersed, presumably returning to their rooms.
"Jiaojiao, should we send a signal?"
They had been lying in ambush at the foot of the mountain for a long time.
Shen Jiaojiao was also speechless. Originally, she thought that after taking the antidote, everyone would be drugged after eating something at the wedding, so that she could safely and perfectly rescue and capture people at the same time.
Unexpectedly, Ning Caichen appeared halfway through and, in his self-righteousness, gave everyone laxatives.
Well, everyone's innocence has been preserved, but the price has been too high.
"Let's wait a little longer!"
After waiting another thirty minutes, Zhou Tianqi emerged looking pale and sickly. Chu Tianling made a sound from the shadows: "Pfft pfft~"
Zhou Tianqi shuddered and looked in the direction of the sound, only then recognizing the person in the shadows.
He glanced around. He was no longer popular and nobody cared about him. Seeing that it was safe around him, he walked towards the two of them.
"Tianqi, how are you feeling?"
"Your Highness, I'm much better now and can leave anytime!" He really didn't want to stay a second longer.
"Alright, I'll signal now. Gather all the brothers together, and we'll get out together from the inside when the reinforcements arrive." Chu Tianling had no other choice but to expose himself.
He originally planned to leave quietly, leaving the mess to the officials who would take over. But now there were too many uncertainties, so he had no choice but to stay and work together.
A firework quietly blooms in the night.
An Yi, holding Chu Tianling's sign, found the nearest garrison, Gao Tiankuo, who was stationed near the East China Sea.
To the east of Jiufeng Village lies a stretch of sea, where Gao Tiankuo's navy is stationed. Upon learning that someone had obtained the token, he immediately dispatched three thousand soldiers to follow.
He had heard about the rampant bandits in Jiufeng Village. He had wanted to send troops there before, but the city lord of Jinwei City, the nearest prefecture, kept saying that as a garrison, he could not act rashly without an imperial order.
The Nine Winds Stronghold probably knew that this place was not to be trifled with, so they never made a move against them, keeping to themselves.
Now that he had received the transfer order, Gao Tiankuo was finally able to act with peace of mind and was extremely excited.
He is already thirty years old and has never married. The main reason is that his hometown is in the capital, and without merit, he cannot be promoted. He has been in this position for ten years!
Now he finally had hope of going home. He secretly vowed to himself that he would do his best this time. He was already fed up with this godforsaken place after ten years.
The fireworks were particularly eye-catching in the night.
An Yi led the way: "Let's go!"
Gao Tiankuo ran the fastest; none of the three thousand men could catch up with him.
He had hope in his heart, and even his eyes shone in the night.
Um?
I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I feel like there's some kind of smell, it's really stinky.
He stopped walking, raised his hand, and everyone else stopped too.
Gao Tiankuo raised his nose and sniffed hard a few times. It really smelled bad. He turned to An Yi and asked, "Brother, are you sure this is the right route? Can you smell anything?"
An Yi had never come up here before, but his bodyguards had a special way of identifying routes. He had just checked it, and it was in this direction, no doubt about it.
His voice was calm: "Yes, it's in this direction, but I can smell the stench too. Let's walk slowly and be careful of our surroundings."
Gao Tiankuo nodded and slowed his pace.
As they got closer to the mountaintop, the stench grew stronger, and they could also faintly hear some kind of sound.
An Yi heard this too. He grabbed Gao Tiankuo's sleeve and whispered, "Wait, Lord Gao, don't move yet. I'll sneak over and check the situation first."
Gao Tiankuo definitely couldn't let him go alone, so he immediately said firmly, "Don't worry, I'll go with you. Two people will be safe!"
Before An could finish speaking, Gao Tiankuo gestured to his back, telling everyone to stay hidden and not move.
After giving his instructions, Gao Tiankuo followed An Yi and tiptoed upwards.
An Yi silently took out a piece of black cloth from his chest and covered his nose.
Gao Tiankuo was immediately inspired. He didn't have any extra cloth, so he tore off a piece from the hem of his clothes to cover his mouth and nose, which made him feel much better.
I'll have plenty of new clothes when I go home, so I won't feel bad about wearing my old clothes now!
