Chapter 146 Hunting the Man in Black
Helian Tian was silent for a moment, his fingers constantly rubbing the jade ring on his thumb. After a long while, he said, "Let's go find someone first!"
"Yes! I obey your command!"
The next day, Helian Chi and Yun Li left the space at dawn. They left from the same cave entrance they had entered last night.
At this moment, accompanied by an unsettling murderous aura, gradually approaching, Helian Chi hurriedly pulled Yun Li's arm, led her into the cave, and signaled to her with his eyes that she was in danger.
Both of them held their breath and said nothing. Then, they heard the voices of several men talking.
"I searched all night, even all over the mountain, but I didn't see anyone."
"The people above said that we must see the body of the deceased, otherwise we won't give you the money anymore!"
"You said you wouldn't let the wolves eat you!"
"Idiot! We were the ones who released the wolf. Even if it was eaten on the spot, there should be some bones left! There wasn't even a hair left at the scene except for the wolf's corpse! I suspect those two escaped!"
"No way... There are so many wolves. If we go back, we'll just say we were eaten by wolves! We can't find anyone anyway, so let's get the silver first. The rest is none of our business!"
"You guys, go over there, you guys go ahead and search for a while. If we still can't find it by daybreak, we'll retreat! Everyone, search carefully. If anyone finds it, we'll…"
As he said this, the man in black next door made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Yun Li and Helian Chi heard the conversation of these people clearly. They looked at each other and understood that the people they were talking about were just the two of them.
Yun Li curled the corners of her mouth and sneered. She wanted to see who was behind such a big fuss and wanted to kill her!
This is a wolf pack and a killer...it's really painstaking.
A person's face flashed through her mind, with a sarcastic smile in his eyes.
The men in black in the woods have dispersed and are still searching for the whereabouts of the two people.
"Li'er, let's go out and take care of them!"
Yun Li stretched out her hand, and a small pistol appeared in her palm. "Well, hold the gun."
"No, it's a waste of bullets to kill them!"
"Okay, then I'll use the crossbow you gave me to test the size of my arrows. This is my first time using a human as a target!"
The two smiled at each other. Since these men in black came to kill them, she would not let them leave the mountain alive. After all, she still wanted to catch them alive and interrogate the people behind them.
Yun Li and Helian Chi each found a very secluded place, surrounded by many trees and weeds, so they would not be discovered for a while.
Yun Li took out a crossbow and aimed it at the back of a man in black. With a whoosh, the crossbow in his hand was fired, and the arrow hit the man in black straight on the back.
The man in black fainted on the ground before he could react. She had soaked those more than one hundred arrows in a special potion, which was full of poison. He would die spontaneously within three days. Besides, only she could prepare the antidote!
That's why she deliberately didn't hit the vital points
The two of them had a lot of fun shooting the black men in the woods
On the other side of the enclosure, everyone was still fast asleep, unaware of the approaching danger.
The guards hurriedly ran into the emperor's tent
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, something bad has happened!"
Helian Tian was woken up in a daze. A concubine beside him sat up first and shouted angrily: "How dare you! Can't you see that the emperor is resting? You are such a bold servant!"
He looked at the guard with a gloomy face, as if he was saying, "You'd better be in trouble, otherwise I'll take your head."
The guard was so frightened that he trembled and said, "Please spare my life, Concubine Rong. I didn't mean to do that. I just have something important to report to the Emperor."
The emperor's voice, imbued with dignity, echoed from the bed: "What's the matter? Tell me, if it's not something serious, I'll chop your head off!"
The guard swallowed hard and muffled his saliva, saying, "Your Majesty, the guards patrolling the camp say there are quite a few wolves heading towards our enclosure! They're less than three kilometers away! Tell Your Majesty to evacuate as soon as possible!"
Helian Tian was no longer sleepy at this moment. He panicked and got up quickly, not caring about the fact that he had not put on his clothes yet.
"What did you say? Why are there wolves in the enclosure? Didn't many wolves die yesterday? How could there still be wolves? Go call the leader of the Royal Guards!"
The guard shook his head tremblingly, "I don't know either. Your Majesty, please evacuate immediately!"
"Blow the horn quickly and tell everyone to get up, pack up and evacuate!"
"Yes! Your Majesty! I obey your command!"
A loud horn sounded, and everyone got up.
"Everyone pack up and leave! There are wolves coming!"
"The wolves are coming, everyone run!"
"The wolves are coming, everyone run!"
Just as everyone woke up from their sleep, got up in a hurry, and the crowd was mixed, the wolves were already in front of the tent.
"Ah, it's a wolf! Everyone run!"
"Wolf!"
"The wolf is coming, everyone run!"
The guards were in a state of chaos, and those who had come out hid in their tents again.
The wolves waited for their chance and scattered to rush into the tents.
"Protect Father!"
"Quick! Protect Father!"
The prince shouted to the guards
"Your Majesty, please evacuate! It will be too late if you don't leave now!"
"Yesterday I asked you to investigate. What are your findings? Tell me, why are there wolves in the enclosure? Why are there so many wolves?"
The leader of the Imperial Guards lowered his head and knelt on the ground. "Your Majesty, time is urgent and I haven't found out yet. For your own safety, Your Majesty should evacuate immediately!"
Helian Tian was furious and was about to lose his temper
The prince brought Yun Wei in from outside
"Father, Father! Miss Yun said she has a way to drive away the wolves!"
"Your Majesty, long live the Emperor!"
Helian Tian glanced at Yun Wei deeply, looked at her with suspicion and said, "Get up, so many guards can't do anything, how can you drive away the wolves?"
"I have been studying medicine in the Divine Doctor Valley since I was young. The Divine Doctor lives alone in a deep mountain valley, where many ferocious beasts roam. That's why Master taught us different medicines to repel different beasts! This time, I thought it would be better to be prepared, so I brought some medicine to repel ferocious beasts. I didn't expect it to come in handy today!"
Helian Tian's face lit up when he heard this. Yun Wei was the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. She was sent to the Divine Doctor Valley to learn medicine since she was young. He knew this. He must have a good command of medicine, otherwise he would not dare to stand up in such a critical moment.
"Good! If you can drive the wolves away, I will reward you handsomely!"
"Yes! Thank you, Your Majesty. I am only trying to do my best to help you!"
The emperor pointed at the prince and said, "Take her there quickly!"
"It's Father!"
Yun Wei took out the medicine powder and sprinkled it around the bottom of the table, then handed the remaining powder to the guard.
"Scatter these around the tents!"
"yes!"
The powder was sprinkled, and soon the wolves dispersed until they disappeared.
