Chapter 311: The Effects of Pink Powder
Qianxue and Qianyan always thought that Chuci had a big move in mind, and they were looking forward to seeing how Chuci would perform.
Unexpectedly, Chu Ci lay down without saying a word, with such a casual posture as if all this had nothing to do with her.
The two looked at each other, their faces full of confusion, their eyes full of puzzlement: "Sister-in-law, are we going to sleep like this? What if...what if there is an emergency?"
Chu Ci didn't even open her eyes, but fumbled lazily in her bag.
Then he casually tossed a small pink porcelain bottle to each of them, and said in a casual tone with a hint of certainty: "Sprinkle the powder inside."
The two took the bottle and examined it carefully for a long time. Their focused expressions seemed as if they wanted to see through the bottle, but they still couldn't tell what was inside.
The two of them have long been accustomed to this.
But it also piqued their curiosity!
No, I can’t figure it out by studying it myself.
Qianxue immediately approached Chu Ci with a curious look on her face, tilted her head, and asked, "Sister-in-law, when did you make this? Why haven't we seen it before? Did you prepare it secretly?"
Even Qianyan was puzzled. Blinking her lively eyes, she asked curiously, "Sister-in-law, why do I always feel like you have more time than us?"
"It seems like you can always make all kinds of preparations without us noticing."
Upon hearing this, several of Chu Ci's sleepyheads were scared away.
She muttered to herself: But what can I say? Should I tell them that I prepared it in a mysterious space? Of course I can't tell them.
So, Chu Ci could only play dumb and pretend to be nonchalant and said, "It's just some failed products from my daily life."
"Okay, I'm tired. You guys finish spreading the powder and go to sleep! Stop nagging me. You can have a sweet dream if you have this time."
Qianxue and Qianyan knew that this had touched upon Chu Ci's little secret, and they quickly made a gesture to shut up, not daring to ask any more questions.
The two looked at each other, understood each other, and exchanged a tacit look.
Then they began to take the small bottle given by Chu Ci and carefully sprinkled the pink powder on the doors, windows, and places where they thought there might be secret passages.
I thought that no matter how anxious the people in the inn were, they would take action in the second half of the night.
Unexpectedly, the innkeeper was so greedy after seeing Chu Ci and the others eating.
Just after midnight, several dark shadows quickly floated through the dim corridor like ghosts, their figures were almost invisible.
Then they tacitly split into two groups.
He rushed towards the prince's room without hesitation, his steps quick but firm.
On the other hand, there were a few people who had seen the craftsmanship of Qianyan and Qianxue.
When they thought that they would be able to eat delicious food they had never seen before, they immediately became very alert and went straight to the room where Chu Ci and the other two were.
It's just that these people underestimated the enemy and didn't realize the potential danger at all.
Therefore, the moment they gently pushed open the door, the pink powder quietly entered their nostrils.
It hurts, it hurts so much. The pain is like countless sharp needles pricking my nose crazily, making it unbearable.
The few people who broke into Chu Ci's room initially endured the pain and tried to grit their teeth to continue their mission.
However, the sudden pain was too severe, as if it would explode their heads. In the end, they could not bear it any longer and let out a shrill scream. "Ah——"
The sound seemed particularly terrifying in the silent night, as if it was about to break through the dark night.
Especially Qianxue and Qianyan, who were closest to the sonic attack and had no preparation, were frightened by the sudden scream and trembled all over, jumping up from the bed.
Seeing several people rolling on the ground and wailing in pain, the two of them widened their eyes and muttered to themselves in disbelief, "Is this the work of the powder?"
The two of them shuddered at the scene in front of them. For some reason, a terrible thought suddenly popped up in their minds: "This is too terrible. If my sister-in-law used this on us, it would really be..."
Thinking of this, the two of them couldn't help but shrink their necks.
He looked at Chu Ci who was still drowsy and yawning on the other bed.
Qianyan said with lingering fear: "Let's not compete with big brother for sister-in-law in the future, right? What if we push big brother into a corner..."
Before Qianyan finished speaking, Qianxue nodded heavily like a chick pecking at rice, and continued with a serious face: "I agree. Let's not offend Big Brother, or we will get into trouble."
After saying this, Qianxue's face showed a hint of resentment. She curled her lips and muttered softly, "Sister-in-law is too nice to big brother, isn't she? It feels like we've all been left out."
At this point, Qianyan and Qianxue rarely had a common language, and couldn't help but sigh: "Why were we born girls? If we were boys, maybe we could compete fairly with big brother."
Chu Ci wanted to be lazy and pretend to be asleep, but he ended up hearing a lot of things he shouldn't have heard.
She felt extremely helpless and speechless!
Forget it, she'd better wake up quickly, otherwise, if she keeps pretending to be asleep, who knows how outrageous these two people will turn the topic to!
Therefore, Chu Ci felt that he really couldn't pretend to be asleep anymore.
So she quickly stood up, walked quickly to the front of the shop, squatted slightly, examined it carefully with full concentration, and then said: "Not bad, although the effect is a little worse than I expected."
"That's all, is that all? Sister-in-law, you made this medicine, aren't you going to help big brother interrogate people?" Qianxue was so frightened that her voice became not only sharper, but even the tone changed, sounding particularly weird.
Because of this, the prince who came in a hurry happened to hear these words.
It's just that he misheard.
I thought that Chu Ci and the other two had already found out the person behind the scenes from these intruders in such a short while.
He immediately pushed the door open and rushed in, asking, "Who is it? Who on earth is deliberately disrupting our itinerary here?"
"What?" Chu Ci and the other two never expected that the prince would ask such a nonsensical question as soon as he showed up. They were all stunned for a moment and couldn't come back to their senses.
But it was precisely because of this brief moment of distraction of the three people that the prince and his entourage noticed the abnormality of several people on the ground.
"What are they doing?" The prince's face was full of suspicion, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were fixed on the few people on the ground whose veins were exposed and they were obviously exhausted.
Chu Ci had no intention of hiding it.
So he acted very calmly and said calmly, "Oh, it's just a new medicine I came up with in my spare time, and I just wanted to try it on them."
“It turns out that this works pretty well.”
