Chapter 123 Banquet
now.
Aze ran to the second floor carefully and saw several rooms. He didn't know where they were locked up, so he didn't dare to knock on the door.
Just as I was scratching my head anxiously, I heard a sound coming from the end.
He was delighted and quickly ran to the door of the room and gently opened it.
Lu Ming in the room was startled, and then saw a familiar face appear at the door.
"Aze!" she whispered.
Aze closed the door gently, walked in, frowned at Luming, and asked, "What should we do now?"
Lu Ming took out a horizontal knife from the space, cut the ropes on his hands and feet, and then asked him: "What's the situation now? Where did they go?"
Aze told her about everyone's situation and then told her what he had heard.
Lu Ming frowned. In this case, they still had at least one day to buffer.
She got out of bed and shook Su Luo next to her for a long time, but the man did not respond.
She was a little disappointed. If Su Luo could wake up, it would mean they could escape quietly before anything happened.
But now she...
Fortunately, they were afraid of scaring the people in the town, so they let Xiaotian and Feixue wait for them outside the town. If they had come in, they would have been in great danger.
"Aze, do you know where Gu Chao and the others are being held?"
"I don't know, but it must be downstairs. I heard them coming down the stairs."
"Okay, let's split up. You go to the first floor and keep watch while I go find them. If someone comes, find a way to notify me first. If there are only a few of them, knock them out immediately. Got it?"
"good!"
The two of them quickly and silently came to the first floor, searched everywhere, and finally found a door in a corner.
Aze went to the gate and listened to the noise outside, while Luming took out the master key, unlocked the ground door, opened the door, and walked downstairs.
As soon as he walked down the stairs, a foul smell hit him in the face, like the sour smell of not having taken a bath for a long time mixed with the smell of urine and feces, which made Lu Ming feel nauseous.
She covered her nose and walked inside carefully.
It was extremely dark down there, and although she could still see in the dark, she didn't want to waste time, so she took out a fluorescent stick and folded it in half.
The faint light slowly brightened, allowing her to see the situation clearly.
The basement is about four or five meters high and several dozen square meters, divided into several areas by wooden boards.
Not far away, she saw two rows of people lying against the wall on either side of an area on the right, each of their hands and feet tied with chains nailed to the wall.
She quickly put away the glow stick and ran towards the person lying on the outermost side.
However, just as she squatted down and before she could open her mouth, she heard a few "cracks" and then was thrown to the ground. One hand tightly grasped her throat, and the other hand held her body down.
Her breath suddenly choked, but fortunately the man quickly let go, then pulled her up, half-knelt beside her and asked anxiously: "Lulu? Why is it you? Are you okay?"
Lu Ming took two deep breaths and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
As soon as Gu Chao woke up, he felt someone approaching and attacked subconsciously. He didn't expect it to be Lu Ming, so he was a little surprised at his current situation.
Not only were they locked up in this strange place, but they also felt weak and dizzy.
"It's those two brothers!"
In a flash he understood most of the facts, and then he went to call other people while listening to Lu Ming's account of what had happened.
However, the others were still fast asleep.
There was no choice, so the two of them went back to the first floor. Gu Chao took a look around the warehouse, nodded to Aze who was surprised to see him, and then went to the second floor.
Waking up Su Luo was fruitless, so the two sat on the bed on the second floor and discussed countermeasures.
"For now, all we can do is wait for the effects of their drugs to wear off. During this time, we shouldn't alert anyone else. We'll go investigate when they have their banquet tonight. By the way, do you have any sleeping pills?"
"Should be. What's the name of the medicine?"
Gu Chao just mentioned a few names.
Lu Ming found a few boxes from the space and handed them to Gu Chao.
He opened it, crushed the pills into powder, asked Lu Ming for an empty bottle, divided it into two portions, and gave one to Lu Ming.
"At night, find an opportunity to get down into their food."
"good!"
------------------
In this way, they spent most of the day in fear.
Fortunately, no one came during this time.
Lu Ming and Gu Chao's bodies have almost recovered, but the others are still sleeping. No wonder no one came to check on them. It seems that they are very confident in the efficacy of the medicine.
Finally, the sky darkened.
Fires were lit in the center of the town, and the sounds of voices and footsteps could be heard occasionally.
The three of them were startled.
The banquet they were talking about had begun.
After a discussion, Aze stayed in the warehouse to look after the others, while Gu Chao and Lu Ming went out together to see what their banquet was about.
The two men climbed out of the second-floor window, jumped down from the warehouse quietly, and leaped from the roofs of buildings along the way. They followed the crowd to the center of the town and stopped on the roof of a two-story building next to the square.
I saw that the wooden tables had been arranged in a circle in the middle of the square, and on the tables were many earthen bowls that they had used to drink water. In the middle was a high platform with a large bonfire and a wooden rack.
There was an earthen stove under the stage with a big iron pot on it. Hot soup was bubbling in the air and the aroma was wafting around. People who came to gather were all drooling.
Gu Chao and Lu Ming lay on the roof, frowned and looked at each other, realizing that something was wrong.
There is not a single old person, child or woman in this town. It is entirely populated by young and middle-aged men ranging from teenagers to forty years old.
The only woman was the "sister-in-law" they had met.
She was held on either side by the Zhang Rong brothers, standing under the platform with a numb look on her face.
Gu Chao narrowed his eyes. His feeling was correct. It was indeed Zhang Yao who used his supernatural power to deliberately trip her.
So, Zhang Yao’s special ability is wind?
Then what about Zhang Rong’s?
It seems that this "sister-in-law" is not the real sister-in-law. She is most likely an outsider who was captured and kept by them.
Gu Chao aimed at the pot of soup on the platform. If he could put sleeping pills in it...
But the platform is in the center, and he can use his supernatural power to send the powder over, but it may be noticed by Zhang Yao who has the supernatural power of wind.
You need to wait for the right time.
It is best to put the medicine in before they all start drinking the soup, so as to maximize the opportunity.
Seeing that most people had arrived, the two brothers hugged the woman and walked up to the platform.
The townspeople who were ready to make a move stopped talking one after another, and the place became silent.
Zhang Rong spoke up: "Today, we caught a group of fat sheep! Among them, there are two women and two children!"
There was cheering and applause from the audience, and people were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
Gu Chao frowned. They were making such loud noises, weren't they afraid of attracting zombies? After all, it was unknown whether the zombie wave would pass.
Also, what is a fat sheep?
They didn't have much supplies.
Could it be... He had a bad feeling in his heart.
