Chapter 216 Caught the Mute
Qiao Yu's guess was correct. When Cao Yanba dragged down the third member of the Vulture team, he indeed had a brick-sized, locked steel box in his hand, and on the box was a solar camping lamp.
Cao Yanba placed Xiang Heng and the other three together, let them lie on their backs side by side on the ground, then turned on the camping light and placed it aside. Using the light, he used the key to open the locked box.
Qiao Yu and the other three stood beside Cao Yaba and found that there were four bulging brown paper packages in the box, and each package had a small piece of paper of a different color pasted on it.
They are white, red, blue and green.
There was no identification on it other than the piece of paper.
Cao Yanba took out the brown paper bag with the white paper attached and opened it.
Inside were a dozen neatly stacked smaller brown paper packages, each with a small white paper slip affixed to it.
Cao Yanba took out one of the small paper bags and opened it carefully.
——There was a small amount of light red powder inside.
"It's red?" Cheng Sinian raised his eyebrows.
There was a white piece of paper on the paper package, and he thought the powder was also white.
"Could it be that... these kinds of powders are all red?"
Generally speaking, if the paper is not used to distinguish the colors of the medicinal powders, it is very likely that the colors of these medicinal powders are the same, and the different colored labels are affixed to distinguish the efficacy.
Qiao Yu didn't reply. Seeing that Cao Yaba was about to reach out and pry open Xiang Heng's mouth, Qiao Yu immediately shouted, "Ah Zhan!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Yaba was taken into Jiang Zhan's spiritual barrier.
Cao Yanba felt that his consciousness seemed to be disconnected from the world for a moment. When he came to his senses again, he found that there were four very handsome men and beautiful women standing in front of him. He almost thought he was dreaming.
While Cao Yaba was still in a daze, Cheng Sinian quickly stepped forward and grabbed Cao Yaba's neck with one hand, making him unable to make any sound; with the other hand, he firmly held down the hand holding the medicine powder.
"Zhenzhen, bring the powder over here." Cheng Sinian turned his head and said to Luo Zhenzhen beside him, "Be careful, don't get it on you."
This medicinal powder is very strange. Although Cao Yaba just pried open Xiang Heng's mouth, it cannot be completely ruled out that there are other ways for it to take effect.
Luo Zhenzhen nodded, took a step forward, and carefully took the powder from Cao Yanba's hand.
Cheng Sinian used his strength to hold down Cao Yanba's hand, preventing him from even moving his fingers, for fear that he would spill the medicine powder and hurt Luo Zhenzhen.
Luo Zhenzhen carefully rewrapped the medicine powder before handing it to Qiao Yu.
Qiao Yu took the medicine powder but did not open it. Instead, he picked up the box containing the medicine from the ground, stuffed the small paper bag back into the larger brown paper bag with a white paper sticker on it, and then stuffed it back into the box.
After doing all this, Qiao Yu stared coldly at Cao Yanba in front of him.
Cheng Sinian's strength was not small. Cao Yanba couldn't make a sound at this time. His face was flushed. He could only use his free hand to slap Cheng Sinian's hand on his neck.
Qiao Yu thought for a moment, then whispered to Jiang Zhan, "Zhan, seal his mouth. Just make sure he can't make a sound."
Jiang Zhan always listened to Qiao Yu's words. Upon hearing this, he set up a barrier around Cao Yaba to isolate the sound, and then signaled Cheng Sinian with his eyes to let go.
Seeing this, Cheng Sinian suddenly loosened his grip.
Cao the Mute was freed, and hurriedly began to cough and breathe heavily.
After he regained his breath, Cao Yanba's first reaction was to open his mouth and start shouting, wanting to use his supernatural powers to subdue the four people in front of him.
However, due to the barrier set up by Jiang Zhan, Qiao Yu and the other three could not hear any sound he made, and watching his movements was like watching a silent movie.
"Don't waste your energy." Cheng Sinian raised the corner of his mouth wickedly and smiled maliciously, "We can't hear you even if you scream at the top of your lungs."
Cao Yaba was startled when he heard this. Seeing the four people's calm faces, as if they had no reaction at all, he panicked and turned around to run up the stairs. But after running for a few steps, his body seemed to hit an invisible wall and was bounced back and fell to the ground.
What's going on?
He had never encountered such a strange ability before!
Cao Yaba's face turned pale, and he knew in his heart that he had run into a tough guy today.
He couldn't beat them, and couldn't run away, so his knees gave way and he knelt down in front of the four men, kowtowed repeatedly.
"Tsk." Cheng Sinian frowned, looking disappointed, "Another coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong."
Originally, seeing him holding his head high and looking so majestic, I thought he had some backbone.
I didn't expect that he is still as afraid of death as before.
"What kind of integrity do you expect from a person like this?"
Qiao Yu curled his lips, then took out a notebook and a pen from the space and threw them in front of Cao Yanba.
"I ask, you answer. I advise you not to lie, unless... you really want to experience the feeling of being tortured."
Qiao Yu had a smiling expression on his face, but his eyes were cold and the threat in his tone was obvious.
Cao Yanba couldn't help but sweat a few drops on his forehead. He nodded hurriedly, indicating that he would be obedient.
"What are the functions of these medicines with different colored papers on them?" Qiao Yu raised the box in his hand and asked Cao Yanba the first question.
Upon hearing this, Cao Yaba pulled the notebook and pen in front of him over, and quickly wrote a paragraph with trembling hands, then immediately held it up for the four people to see, as if he was afraid that he would be tortured if he was a second late.
Cao Yaba's handwriting was a little sloppy in his panic. Qiao Yu took a long time to see what he wrote.
—It has no effect, it just makes people lose consciousness and pass out. I didn't mean to harm them. Handsome men and beautiful women, if these three are your friends, I apologize. Please take them away. I will keep my mouth shut about what happened today!
"Tsk." Cheng Sinian frowned and stepped forward to kick Cao Yaba. "Just answer whatever I ask you. Stop trying to be smart here."
Qiao Yu sneered, "It seems like you really want to try our methods?"
Cao Yanba shrank his neck, picked up the notebook again and started writing quickly.
Qiao Yu pursed her lips and waited for him to finish writing.
When Cao Yanba raised the notebook again, he actually wrote down the effects of the four medicines.
——The one with the white paper is a drug that makes people lose consciousness. The others have the same effect, but they are covered with different colored papers because they were obtained at different times.
Qiao Yu pursed his lips, but before he could say anything, he felt a gust of air around him. When he looked at Cao the Mute again, he saw two large cuts on his legs. He was covering his wounds and howling silently with his mouth open.
