Chapter 828: This Trap Turtle's Method
Half a minute later, Sang Zhixia remained silent.
Xu Yanran and Chen Yun still had a hint of excitement on their faces, but if you looked closely, you would find that they seemed to be lacking in confidence.
Tian Ying'er and Nan Weiwei, who were originally ready to fight a big battle, looked strange.
The awkward silence lasted for a long time. Lu Xin finally lifted his chin, which had fallen to the ground, and said quietly with a lingering shock, "After all, I have seen too little of the world..."
Although the number of people who tried to break into the villa in the past few days was more than 500, Lu Xin had never seen such a simple and rough method of punishment.
Now, not only can the people who disguised themselves and sneaked into other villages not get out, but the people inside can't move either.
Xu Yanran touched her nose and smiled shyly, feeling embarrassed: "I didn't expect it to be so powerful..."
Master Qi was very generous to his gifted disciple. Whenever he had good things, no matter whether they could save lives or kill people, he gave Xu Yanran enough things to carry in a car.
Most of them are extremely poisonous and can easily kill people. If you touch them even a little bit, you will die.
Xu Yanran was probably frightened by the previous scene, so she took everything she could with her when she went out, and used up everything she had available in the past few days, leaving nothing behind.
The person who came forward didn't know how dangerous the road ahead was, so he rushed forward without hesitation. The poison array that had been set up in advance was triggered by the mechanism, and poisonous fog filled the air in an instant.
Song Liu's face was filled with resentment. He sat on the ground, gasping for breath, feeling limp. "Miss Yanran and Master Yun were too quick. We were nearly trapped. When the poisonous fog emerged, there was really no time for us to react. We collapsed before we could even breathe!"
No one expected that thick poisonous fog would suddenly emerge from all directions, without any warning and with extremely strong lethality.
If Chen Yun had not brought people to deliver the antidote in time, they would have lost 800 of their own men and killed 500 of the enemies.
They have more people lying in ambush than the other side!
Tian Ying'er was forced to give up the opportunity to kill everyone, and she felt both amused and angry while holding her scimitar.
"It was so fast that I didn't even react."
"I just thought you were playing house before, who could have imagined it would be so powerful?"
Sang Zhixia's original intention was to lure the enemy into a trap and catch the turtle in it.
First, take the people to the outer courtyard where an ambush is set, and then close the door and beat the dog.
The situation developed more smoothly than expected. Although no one was left alive, at least they were safe.
only……
Sang Zhixia narrowed her eyes in dismay and asked hesitantly, "Are you sure this poisonous fog won't hurt your own people?"
"The inner courtyard isn't that far from the outside. There are so many of us here. Do we have enough antidotes?"
Chen Yun couldn't answer and looked at Xu Yanran for help.
Xu Yanran blushed as she assured him firmly, "The poisonous fog has a limited range of spread. It's supposed to be impossible to get through."
"But just to be on the safe side, I've also set up an antidote array in the inner courtyard. As long as you stay within the area where the antidote is placed, no one will be poisoned or affected."
Sang Zhixia hummed in disbelief, and the next second she heard Xu Yanran hesitantly say, "But..."
"But I've used up all the antidotes, so theoretically, we can't get out for the time being."
Sang Zhixia: "..."
Nan Weiwei turned around in shock, shaking from the laughter she was trying to stifle.
Sang Zhixia took a deep breath and asked softly, "What do you mean by temporarily being unable to leave?"
Xu Yanran blushed, tugging at her clothes and grunting, "That's it..."
"What this means is that before the poison formation loses its effect, we can only stay in the inner courtyard to avoid being poisoned. No one can leave."
Sang Zhixia's expression became completely blank.
Xu Yanran's voice became lower and lower: "I didn't expect that what the master gave me was so powerful."
"The poisonous fog is full of mixed poisons now. I... I don't know how to cure it, but..."
"But Master told me that as long as I stay still near the detoxification formation, I won't be affected at all. I just need to wait for the poisonous fog to dissipate on its own!"
Xu Yanran's eyes sparkled and she didn't dare to speak anymore.
Nan Weiwei clapped her hands and gasped: "Great, Yanran, this trick of setting a trap to trick a cuckold is really..."
Nan Weiwei felt halfway through that scolding herself, so she paused and abruptly changed her words: "That's a good way to protect yourself."
“It was quite unexpected!”
It was also beyond the expectations of our own people.
They have all seen the power of the poisonous fog. Anyone who enters it will die, without exception.
Now such a large villa is divided into two by the poisonous fog. The inner courtyard is fine, but the area outside the courtyard wall is slightly affected, and all the people who need to evacuate have also evacuated.
Using poisonous fog as a barrier, the inside and outside are completely separated.
Outsiders cannot come in, and people inside cannot go out.
Before this terrifying poisonous fog dissipated, they were trapped inside.
Sang Zhixia, after understanding the current situation, said with a smile: "Then how long will it take for this poisonous fog to dissipate?"
"Do you have any idea?"
Xu Yanran's face was filled with trepidation. She counted on her fingers for a long time before cautiously saying, "Five days?"
Sang Zhixia raised an eyebrow: "Hmm?"
"Be safe, at least seven days."
Xu Yanran raised her finger and said, "Seven days at most. After seven days, the effects of the poisonous fog will be minimal. Even if someone is unfortunate enough to be affected, I should be able to cure it."
"But don't worry, sister-in-law, the detoxification array will really not be affected. I guarantee it will be fine. I'm sure of that!"
Now that things have come to this, you have to believe it whether you want to or not.
Sang Zhixia suppressed her laughter and poked Xu Yanran's raised forehead, whispering, "The thing that Elder Qi gave you is too toxic. Until you can fully control it, try to use it as little as possible in the future. Do you understand?"
Xu Yanran nodded obediently and said yes repeatedly.
Sang Zhixia thought about the people who were knocked down and realized that there was nothing he could do for the time being, so he simply said, "Since we can't get out for the time being, let's just stay calm."
"Send a signal to the people outside, asking them to stay away from the other villages as much as possible to avoid being affected by the poisonous fog. As for the others..."
"Let's wait until the poisonous fog dissipates."
By then, the civil unrest and purge in the royal city would probably have a winner.
The people present quickly responded in a low voice. Sang Zhixia also reminded the younger ones not to run around, and then went into the inner courtyard to rest with lingering fatigue.
Nan Weiwei and Tian Ying'er were disappointed that they didn't get the chance to vent their anger, so they sighed and followed him away.
Xu Yanran and Chen Yun volunteered to stay and clean up the mess. Lu Xin recovered and said with a wry smile, "Little Ancestor, we can't get out now. Actually, there's not much to clean up."
"How about you two go and rest for a while?"
The scene of the poisonous fog was so horrifying that Lu Xin's legs were still weak.
If he asked these two seemingly harmless little ancestors for help, he was really afraid that he would be frightened to the point of being unable to walk.
As Lu Xin said this, he got up from the ground and wanted to persuade her again, but when he looked up, he saw Xu Yanran pulling out her dagger, and Chen Yun also silently found a long sword for himself.
Lu Xin said bewilderedly: "What...what happened? Is there anyone else who hasn't been knocked down? I..."
"Deputy General Lu."
Chen Yun smiled amiably, and he put his arm around Lu Xin's shoulders like a brother, saying softly, "Although Elder Qi's poison skills are unparalleled, where else in the world can you find a poison array that can kill people in an instant, and kill hundreds of people at once?"
"You say so?"
Lu Xin felt as if someone had hit him hard on the temples. His head was buzzing and he couldn't say a word.
Xu Yanran changed her shy and obedient demeanor in front of Sang Zhixia. Her eyes and brows showed the same indifferent and aggressive look as Xu Yu. She said lightly, "So that poison is not life-threatening. I wouldn't dare to use such a deadly poison like this."
Lu Xin: “…”
Lu Xin swallowed hard and said with bated breath: "That means those people are just..."
"Fainted."
Xu Yanran slid her fingertips across the blade and said calmly, "But it can also be equivalent to death."
"Let's go out and clean up the mess with our knives, and there won't be any survivors."
