Chapter 67 Poisonous Smoke



A group of people came towards us. There were two men in black clothes in front and behind, but their faces were not covered. In the middle was a group of ordinary soldiers. Although they were wearing soldiers' uniforms, they looked nervous and timid. It was obvious that they were forced to come here.

Gu Yanming and Ye Xinran floated to an abandoned house and waited until the group of people passed by before they moved forward again.

It was not until they were very close to the army that they hid behind the roof of a nearby abandoned house and stopped to observe carefully.

Two or three thousand people were lined up for training, all wearing uniform soldier uniforms. Only a few of them were armed. The rest of the ordinary soldiers were unarmed. It was probably because the leaders were afraid of mutiny and did not dare to let them take up weapons.

Very close to them, there was a thin figure, probably only about 14 or 15 years old, who was whipped several times by a small leader because of his non-standard training movements. He fell to the ground instantly and was dragged away. The others did not dare to look around and continued to train.

The person who was dragged away left a long trail of blood on the ground.

Gu Yanming was angry, but he did not act impulsively. He just clenched his fists until they made a crackling sound.

"With so many people around, what does Your Highness plan to do?" Ye Xinran observed with a telescope and diverted Gu Yanming's attention.

Gu Yanming closed his eyes and looked away through the telescope.

"Catch the leader first. First determine who is the leader. After subduing the leader, we can defeat them one by one."

"Hmm!" It is a good and timeless method to capture the leader first. But they are afraid that the leader they think is only in the open, and what if the leader behind them sees the wrong situation and runs away?

Ye Xinran felt that the best way was to knock them all down and then slowly identify them.

"I have a simpler and more practical method!" Ye Xinran said with a smile, "Without bloodshed!"

Gu Yanming raised his eyebrows and looked at her in confusion, "Does the princess have any better ideas? Could it be that we should put drugs in their well water?"

Ye Xinran raised a finger and shook it, saying, "No! What if they don't drink water at the same time?"

Gu Yanming was curious, "What does the princess mean?"

"Release poisonous smoke!"

"How do you put this?"

In Gu Yanming's understanding, poisonous smoke is only used by low-class people such as thieves and flower-stealing thieves to put it in the room at night. It can knock out and make everyone in the room faint. However, there are 20,000 or 30,000 people here, how can they be knocked out by poison?

Ye Xinran didn't explain and felt the wind direction. Because the city was in the valley, the wind blew from one end of the valley to the other. And their location was downwind.

"Take me flying!" Ye Xinran stretched out his arms.

Gu Yanming held her in his arms with amusement, avoided everyone, and flew in the direction she pointed, directly out of the city.

When they reached the top of the mountain with good wind, Ye Xinran stepped out from Gu Yanming's arms.

Gu Yanming was still a little disappointed. The princess took the initiative to let him hold her! Although she only used him as a means of transportation, he still enjoyed it very much!

Ye Xinran didn't notice Gu Yanming's reaction, and looked around carefully. After making sure that he was far enough away that he wouldn't be discovered, he began to look around the mountain.

Because this hill is in the shade, the vegetation is not dense, and the middle part is all pine trees.

Ye Xinran chose a relatively large open space, and the two of them cut down a few pine trees and picked up some dry branches. They placed them on the open space and set up a firebreak around them to prevent a forest fire.

Ye Xinran lit the dry branches, which slowly ignited the pine tree, and the oil inside the pine tree oozed out, making crackling sounds. The fire was not big, but the smoke was quite big.

When Ye Xinran saw that the fire was almost out, he added a large amount of hallucinogenic drugs into it. The gray-white smoke grew larger and larger, and blew towards the city with the mountain wind.

Gu Yanming was not calm anymore. It turned out that this was possible! Not everyone drinks water at the same time, but they must breathe at all times. With such a large amount of smoke floating over, you must inhale two puffs, and then you will be infected!

Gu Yanming really admired his princess. She was indeed a fairy sent by God! So smart!

"What kind of medicine is in here and what will happen to those people?" Gu Yanming was curious.

Ye Xinran took out two pills and each of them took one before explaining.

"It's hallucinogenic and can also make people limp and powerless! I originally wanted to use drugs to make them sleepless, but then everyone would fall asleep and there would be no way to interrogate them!"

Gu Yanming nodded, "Princess, you are very thoughtful and rigorous. I am ashamed of myself!"

Ye Xinran raised her head and said proudly, "It's good that you know!"

Gu Yanming was so amused! It turns out that the princess likes to be praised! Then he will praise her more in the future!

After waiting for about an hour, she checked the fire again, and after making sure there was no problem, she opened her arms towards Gu Yanming again.

"Let's go, fly back!"

Gu Yanming held the person in his arms lovingly and flew quickly towards the city.

As soon as we arrived at the center of the city, we saw that the soldiers who had been in neat formation were now staggering, and the small leaders holding weapons all looked confused.

All the people were in different poses. Some were looking up at the sky, some were sleeping, some were talking nonsense, some were hitting others, and some were holding someone's leg and biting it. Another person was baring his teeth and shouting, "Wife, stop biting me. I won't dare to do it again!"

Most of the time, they cried so hard that their faces were covered with tears and snot, which was really funny, and also a bit vicissitudes and sadness.

Gu Yanming and Ye Xinran quickly split up. Gu Yanming went to find the leader of this place, while Ye Xinran was thinking about the warehouse here.

Ye Xinran opened the contact lens map and locked onto four warehouses.

Soon they arrived at the first warehouse. It was full of food and fodder. Sacks after sacks, neatly stacked. But the total amount was not much, and it felt like it was only enough for these people to eat for a few days. Ye Xinran put it into the space without saying anything.

After leaving the first warehouse, there was the kitchen next to it, and Ye Xinran went in. The cooks all looked dazed and were busy with their own things.

Ye Xinran cleared out everything inside.

When she arrived at the second warehouse, it was filled with all kinds of weapons and armor, almost all of which were brand new, tens of thousands of sets, neatly arranged. She quickly put them away.

The third storehouse was filled with various herbs and some prepared pills, mainly for treating external injuries. She put them all into the space.

Further back, there was the fourth warehouse. This warehouse was not as big as the previous ones. It was filled with boxes of silver ingots. She roughly estimated that there were at least 800,000 taels. It should be military pay.

After collecting all these, Ye Xinran walked around the area again. She came across a small horse farm full of military horses, probably about 70 or 80 horses, and she didn't know which ones were good or bad. She collected all of them into the space.

At the back of the horse farm, there was a carriage. Ye Xinran walked over and unexpectedly found Yu Xiaodie, Yu Er and their group.

Thinking that Yu Xiaodie must be unconscious, Yu Er and the others had finally managed to get her out, so now they should take her away to see a doctor!

Ye Xinran was in a dilemma. Should she let her go? She had originally thought of leaving her to deal with Mr. Nanhua, but she ran into him again.
