432 Christmas Eve Visit
Because the other party believed in his magic medicine too much and was eager to escape, he never tied up Ping'an and the others, and did not even have time to search them.
The stomachs of several people began to growl. They looked up at another cave entrance not far away and saw a blazing bonfire, where they must be roasting fish and heating steamed buns.
Fu An held his stomach and whispered, "Ping An, I'm sorry for getting you all involved. I don't know what they want from tying us up? Where are we going?"
I was really hungry, so I bought two steamed buns at the market. "
Ping An sighed. He was busy bargaining at noon and was thinking about going back to the inn to eat. The food outside was not very clean and he might be the only one among the few people who had not eaten anything.
"Master, here's some candy for you. Brother Lin Feng bought me at noon. There's only a little bit of it left." Xiao Ming took out a small bag of candy.
"Put it in your arms first. You can't eat it yet. Otherwise, they will come to check and smell the sweetness. Everyone close your eyes and rest. I will find you something to eat in the middle of the night."
Fu An and the others were silent.
The two cave entrances are not very far apart. People who are skilled in martial arts usually have sharp ears and eyes. If they are discovered and the person is awake, they will definitely be tied up tightly.
Then there might really be no escape.
Here, Ager finished eating the fish and stood up, "Uncle Kui, let me go over there and take a look, is it really not necessary to tie it up?"
Zha Kui laughed, "Even if it's a tiger, it will make me dizzy for two days. My drug is the best drug in the world. Ag, go to bed early. We will get up early tomorrow morning to fix the sail. The seam of the boat is not a big deal. After all, it is not on the bottom of the boat, but on the hull. To be on the safe side, let's see if we can cut a thin slice and stuff it in tomorrow."
Ag said, "I'd better go and take a look."
Ping An heard footsteps and whispered, "Someone is coming, don't make a sound."
Several people didn't move.
Ag came over with a lamp and stood at the entrance of the cave, quietly watching the few people who had fainted.
Isn't it just a little bit prettier? Can it be as good as his kung fu? Can it be as knowledgeable as his?
He hated the old island owner for choosing Agen for the second young lady. Apart from knowing some medicine, what else did he have?
Who would have thought that the Second Young Lady would do such a thing today and really take these people back, completely blocking his path to becoming the Second Young Lady's husband.
Forget about it today. Let's see if we can kill these people tomorrow. Didn't Zha Kui say that the bottom of the boat was fine? Then let's make something happen to the bottom of the boat tomorrow. They are good at swimming and can swim back to the island. At most, we can wait for a few days and the island owner will send someone to pick them up.
This is still not good. Even if these people go back, they can only live for two or three months. It all depends on his mood.
Thinking of this, Ag let out a breath and kicked Chen Xuan, who was on the outside, hard.
Chen Xuan only felt unbearable pain in his leg bones, but he still gritted his teeth and endured it.
Fortunately, Agger kicked him and turned away.
After a while, the footsteps completely disappeared, and Ping An asked in a low voice: "Chen Xuan, is there anything wrong?"
"It's safe. The bones should be fine. It just hurts."
"Chen Xuan, I will go out alone in the middle of the night to check. It would be best if we can drug those people and knock them out. Then we can row away."
Fu An said, "None of us know how to row a boat, right? And it's night time, will it be dangerous?"
"Xizi knows, and I also know a little bit. I learned it in Jiangnan. We should walk if we can. If we leave this island, they won't be able to catch up with us. There is no wind tonight, but there is still some moonlight. We can just drift with the boat. We are not afraid of daybreak. Let's row quickly."
Ping An agreed with Chen Xuan.
"Master Ping An, I will be with you at midnight. I also know some Qing Kung Fu."
"Okay, Fu An, Chen Xuan, after two hours, you all go to another place. I know a little bit about formations, so I'll set up a small formation for you. It will be safe for a short time, and then Xizi and I will go out to explore. If everything goes well, we'll come back to pick you up."
"Okay." Fu An and Chen Xuan responded.
Several people huddled together tightly, with their cloaks still on, so it wasn't very cold.
Time passed minute by minute, and except Xiao Ming who really fell asleep, the others were all awake.
It was hard to bear the hunger. Xiao Ming barely gave each of us one candy. After eating it, we felt even hungrier.
"Chen Xuan, Fu An, sit up and follow me. I will take you to another place."
The two of them sat up obediently.
"Xizi, hold Xiaoming and don't wake him up."
Chen Xizi hurriedly picked up Xiao Ming, but the ten-year-old child was still light-headed.
Ping An led them out of the cave and stopped in a sheltered place not far away.
"You two should squeeze together with Xiao Ming. That means someone is coming. You can see him but he can't see you. But you can't make any sound. This formation can't hide any sound."
Fu An became excited. Ping An knew so much.
Ping An set up a small formation nearby, which took more than a quarter of an hour.
"Okay, Xizi and I will go check it out. We will be back to pick you up in half an hour at most. Xizi, swallow this pill and let's go."
On the island late at night, you can hear the sound of sea water hitting the shore from time to time, and occasionally a seabird flies by, leaving behind a sharp bird cry.
Ping'an used his Qinggong skills and soon arrived three meters away from the cave entrance. He waved at Chen Xizi, and Chen Xizi stopped.
Ping'an walked in the snow like a ghost. Chen Xizi behind him seemed to only see Master Ping'an floating without any sound at all.
The man soon reached the cave entrance. Ping An took out his gun and threw it towards the gap in the cave door curtain.
This amount is not enough to kill a person immediately. Just like what Zaqui said, at most the person will be unconscious for two days, but their life span will not be long.
He softened his heart.
In addition, considering that they were arrested today, it would definitely cause quite a stir. We still don't know who the other party is. If they are difficult to deal with, they might retaliate. But if no one was killed and he was in the wrong, that's another matter.
As for the fact that they all died one after another a few years later, no one would think of him, let alone take revenge on his family.
In the flickering light of the fire at the cave entrance, he could just about make out five people lying side by side, men and women, really unrefined.
After thinking about it, he decided to go into the cave and took away the purses, daggers and short knives from the five people. There was also a small cloth bag in Zhakui's arms. He put the purse in his arms. The small cloth bag was a little heavy, and he didn't know what was in it, so he simply put it into a big pocket in his waist belt and left it alone.
After taking these, he felt much better. Otherwise, he would be sorry for the suffering he and his people had to endure tonight.
He Jin and the others didn't know how anxious they were.
He held the lantern and walked back to Xizi: "Let's go to the boat and take a look."
He no longer used his Qinggong skills and his footsteps made light sounds.
"Master Ping An, are they all fainted?"
Ping An grinned: "Of course, five people will be dizzy for at least two days."
He kept it to a small detail.
The ultimate consequence of this medicine is still death, but there is no need to tell Xizi this.
The boat was in a shallow bend, with a thick rope tied to the boat at one end and an iron rod stuck in the soil at the other end to ensure that the boat would not drift away.
Chen Xizi checked it carefully under the light of the lamp and said, "It's okay. It can be scratched."
Ping An said, "Let's go pick them up."
Chen Xizi also became excited and trotted after Ping An. He had just seen that there was still a lot of food on the boat, so he would not be hungry for two or three days.
Two or three days later, they had already returned to the barracks.
