Chapter 128: Zhan Liang is Poisoned
Chen Yunyun was anxious and made homemade bombs very quickly. Especially with the cooperation of Zhan Liang, she made 20 homemade bombs in one go. When she and Zhan Liang carried a large bamboo basket into the pharmacy, Lin Xiaoyue was stunned!
Lin Xiaoyue stretched her neck to look at the bamboo basket and said in surprise: "Yunyun, you have done so much, this is really great! Let's all take a few for self-defense!"
After everyone had their homemade bombs distributed, the drunkard suggested, "Let's all stay in this room tonight! If someone comes in, we can all work together and avoid worrying about those sleeping in other rooms."
Lin Xiaoyue said in agreement: "Okay, I agree! Yunyun, come over and share a bed with me!"
Chen Yunyun nodded and said, "Okay! What about Uncle and Zhan Liang?"
Zhan Liang leaped up and landed directly on the beam. "I'm here! You can sleep peacefully. I will protect you!"
The drunkard simply pushed a few stools together, covered himself with a blanket, and said, "I'll just stay here for one night!"
As the oil lamp went out, the pharmacy returned to silence. The temperature outside was already very low, and the noisy little insects had disappeared!
Lin Xiaoyue was so worried at first that she couldn't fall asleep. She didn't know when the sleepiness started to creep into her head. She yawned and fell asleep directly.
In her dream, she saw that Journey to the West was sold out after it was printed, and many customers came to the Jueweilou branch in Yangming Town as soon as it opened. She sat at the counter every day to collect money. The white silver and huge handfuls of banknotes made her very happy. Is she finally going to realize her dream of counting money until her hands cramp?
Suddenly, Lin Xiaoyue heard a "bang bang bang" sound in her ears, and then she felt the world shaking. "Ah! What happened? I feel dizzy!"
Lin Xiaoyue suddenly opened her eyes and found that Chen Yunyun had been pushing her. No wonder she felt so dizzy in her dream!
She looked towards the door again, and saw two figures fighting in the dark room. The two seemed to be evenly matched, and the swords in the air rubbed against each other and collided, flashing dazzling sparks.
Lin Xiaoyue cursed inwardly, "Damn it! Another assassin is coming! How did I fall asleep?"
"Dad, are you okay?"
The drunkard sat down beside the bed, patted Lin Xiaoyue's hand and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm fine! As soon as Zhan Liang and the assassin started fighting, I asked Yunyun to call you."
Lin Xiaoyue nodded and said, "That's right. Dad, please light the oil lamp quickly. The room is pitch black and we can't help Zhan Liang."
The oil lamp was right next to him, so the drunkard took out a tinder and lit the lamp.
Although the dim light was not bright, it still illuminated the faces of Zhan Liang and the assassin.
Lin Xiaoyue looked at the assassin in the bright light. It was a strange face. She asked the old drunkard, "Dad, do you know this man?"
The old drunkard shook his head and said, "I don't know him."
Lin Xiaoyue thought about it and realized that Old Wine Monster was the imperial physician. Furthermore, since he had been away from the palace for so long, Emperor Liang had already cultivated a large number of confidants. How could he possibly know him? Why would she ask such an idiotic question?
Then, Lin Xiaoyue shouted towards the door: "Zhan Liang, quickly lead the assassin outside!"
Zhan Liang understood what Lin Xiaoyue meant, "Yes!" After answering, he dodged and struck with his heavy sword, forcing the assassin to the door. Then he raised his foot and kicked the assassin's vitals.
The assassin was on guard and was hit by Zhan Liang's full attack, and was kicked out of the pharmacy.
Zhan Liang took advantage of the victory and continued to attack the assassin with deadly moves, "Go to hell!"
The assassin couldn't get up from the ground and could only move backwards while resisting.
Seeing the opportunity coming, Lin Xiaoyue struggled to get out of bed, "Dad, Yunyun, please help me, I want to go over and take a look."
The drunkard guessed Lin Xiaoyue's thoughts. He immediately stood up with both hands full of earth bombs and said, "You lie down. I'm strong enough to blow up that assassin!"
Lin Xiaoyue was worried, but the Ma Fei San on her body had lost its effect. She felt pain in her wound when she supported herself on the bed with her hands. If she forced herself to get down and throw the homemade bomb, the wound might split open. At this critical moment, she decided not to cause trouble for everyone!
She nodded and said, "Okay, Dad, be careful!"
The drunkard, holding two homemade bombs in each hand, walked to the door and shouted at Zhan Liang, "Zhan Liang, how are you? I'm going to throw them away."
"Wait!" In order to not give the assassin a chance to escape, Zhan Liang took the assassin's sword and stabbed his sword into the assassin's abdomen. "Alright, throw it!"
As he spoke, Zhan Liang flew far away with a light Kung Fu move.
The assassin had no idea what the drunkard was going to throw. He endured the severe pain in his abdomen and struggled to get up, but the wound in his abdomen eventually pulled his legs back. He only felt something emitting sparks in front of him, flying towards him one after another. After a loud "bang bang bang" sound, the assassin was blown into a pulp.
Zhan Liang walked in and shouted happily, "We succeeded! No one should come tonight, everyone can sleep peacefully!"
Lin Xiaoyue heard Zhan Liang's voice in the room and happily took Chen Yunyun's hand and said, "Yunyun, we succeeded! Thank you! Today, it was all thanks to your homemade bomb!"
Chen Yunyun was very happy to be able to help. "It's nothing. It's all the result of everyone's hard work. But is there really no assassin tonight?"
Lin Xiaoyue said confidently, "Don't worry. Two people died in a row, and the sound of the earth bombs exploding just now was just enough to scare the crap out of the people. Those assassins hiding outside will definitely not dare to come again! I guess they should have gone back to report what happened here."
Chen Yunyun felt relieved. Today was probably the most thrilling day in her history, but it was also the day she felt she was the most useful!
"In that case, Sister Lin, go to sleep. Your wound needs to be healed. If you need anything, just let me do it."
Lin Xiaoyue felt that her chest would hurt if she put too much pressure on her head, so she tilted her head and looked towards the door. "Wait a minute, I haven't seen Dad and Zhan Liang come in yet. I wonder if they are injured."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiu Laoguai came in, supporting Zhan Liang and saying, "Yunyun, come down and help me."
Chen Yunyun noticed something was wrong. After getting out of bed, she hurried over to help Zhan Liang. "Uncle, I think Zhan Liang was just stabbed in the arm. Why is he so vain?"
The drunkard added a few more stools to the one he had been sleeping on to make a bed, and then he and Chen Yunyun placed Zhan Liang on it. "He must have been poisoned! I just gave him an antidote that will temporarily slow down the onset of the poison. I'll bandage his wound first. The light here is not good, Yunyun, bring the oil lamp closer."
Chen Yunyun held the oil lamp and stood next to the drunkard so that the light could shine on the wound.
