Kill me if you can (8)



Kill me if you can (8)

Shen Tang knew very well what she was doing. In her memory, the poisonous insects carried by the male protagonist were stored in a special gold silk bag, and only this bag could resist the spread of the poison.

Her hands were groping around him, but strangely, he didn't have any ornaments on his waist. Instead, when she tried to touch him, he grabbed her hand. Yun Sheng's aura changed a little. The faint medicinal scent of the boy approaching him lingered around him, and the hand touching him made him a little stiff.

"Young Master, if you touch me like this, people who don't know would think you like me." The warm and rough breath hit Shen Tang's face at close range. Yun Sheng's voice was slightly hoarse, and he slowly pressed the caught hand towards his face, scaring Shen Tang so much that he immediately retracted his hand and took a few steps back, cursing Shen Tang fiercely in his heart.

"How can a blind man like you look up to someone like you? Do you think you are an onion?" Shen Tang cursed angrily as he failed to find the poisonous insect bag. When he touched the other's cheek, he rubbed his hand vigorously, fearing that this guy had put some poison on his hand.

Yun Sheng's trip to Qianxue Mountain was not without gain. In addition to picking the Hanxin Lotus, he unexpectedly discovered a medicine for treating eye diseases. Although his eyes were tied with a thin band, he could already feel some light and shadow. It would not be long before his eyesight was restored, and by then, no one in the Jiang family would be able to escape.

"The things you want are outside." Yun Sheng lowered her long eyelashes, and her dark eyes caught a hint of vigilance in the eyes of the young man in front of her. She soon raised her lips and spoke, "Young Master, why don't you go out and take a look with me? There may be something extra that you need."

If Yun Sheng was just testing Shen Tang to see if she knew about the poisonous insects, now that she saw the subtle change in Shen Tang's expression, she directly induced her to go with her to see the medicinal materials. Since it was related to Jiang's father, Shen Tang naturally couldn't refuse to go.

She snorted twice at the man in front of her with a fake smile: "Where did you put it?"

Yun Sheng smiled faintly: "It's just outside the door, Master, you will know it at a glance. If you find the medicine you need, I wonder if I am qualified to get the position of Jiang family guard?"

The other party knew clearly that he had what she needed, so naturally he would not worry that Shen Tang would not recruit him into the Jiang family. He asked this question only to let the other members of the Jiang family clearly see that he was personally recruited into the Jiang family. If he wanted to remove him from his position at that time, he would naturally have to have a legitimate reason. Shen Tang thought to himself that this man was deep-minded, but he still walked to the door of the Jiang family with a gentle smile on his face.

"Young Master, the weather is cold, take the hand warmer and warm your hands." Lu Ya saw Shen Tang's hands were slightly red from being frozen, and hurriedly stuffed the hand warmer into Shen Tang's hands. She glanced at Yun Sheng, who was blindfolded, and followed Shen Tang towards the door without even having time to sigh.

Just as Yun Sheng said, there was a basket on the ground outside the Jiang family's door, but it was covered with a black cloth so that no one could tell what was underneath.

Shen Tang walked cautiously on the left side of Yun Sheng, in case this man used the same trick on her as he did on the old pavilion master. Fortunately, when the black cloth was lifted by the man, only the snow-white cold-heart lotus with ice water was revealed underneath, not just one, but dozens of them.

Shen Tang glanced at the person in front of her in surprise, and took a step forward to pick up a flower to examine it carefully. The temperature of the Han Xin Lotus was cold to the touch, and the melted snow on it slid down her fingertips. Shen Tang carefully compared it several times before confirming that this basket of flowers was indeed the Han Xin Lotus from Qianxue Mountain.

Recently, she had not received any news about Yun Sheng sending people to Qianxue Mountain to pick flowers. It seemed that he picked all these flowers himself, and he was indeed the first person under the master of Qianji Pavilion. Shen Tang did not expect that picking Hanxin Lotus could really stop Yun Sheng. This plan was a delaying tactic, but she did not expect that the opponent's strength was much higher than she expected.

"Are you satisfied with what you saw, young master?" Although Yun Sheng's clothes were damaged while picking the Hanxin Lotus, his temperament could not be concealed. "I heard that the old master was ill, so I specially prepared some medicine."

After he finished speaking, the man took out a small box from under the clusters of white flowers and slowly presented it to Shen Tang.

"Open it and see?"

Shen Tang stared at Yun Sheng with her sparkling eyes, her body slightly tensed. If there was poison in it, she would have to exchange points from the lucky bag for the antidote.

"How do I know what's inside? Why don't you open it yourself?" The young man's face was expressionless, he just stared coldly at Yun Sheng's movements, which made him laugh in his heart. I didn't expect the young master of the Jiang family to be so vigilant, but unfortunately, he had no intention of taking action at this moment.

Yun Sheng's bony fingers slowly opened the box. When Shen Tang saw what was inside, she was slightly startled, but her body relaxed a lot. The box contained the poisonous insect, but it was dead, and the box contained the treated insect. No wonder she had searched all over Yun Sheng's waist before but couldn't find the bag. It turned out that he had planned it in advance.

Shen Tang took a deep breath and looked at Yun Sheng calmly. Since she had promised, she would not break her promise. Moreover, since the other party had produced the poisonous insect medicine, it seemed that he was determined to enter the Jiang family. She had to let him in out of both emotion and reason.

"These flowers and medicinal insects are all stored in the palace. By the way, what are you calling for?"

The man let out a low laugh: "Yunzhu, Master, just call me Ah Zhu."

Shen Tang laughed: "That's a coincidence. I heard that the Yun family is one of the top three killers in the martial arts world. It's unfortunate that your name is the same as that person."

Yun Sheng's expression remained calm, but the look he gave Shen Tang was thoughtful.

"Young Master, you are joking. Although there are not many people of the Yun family in the capital, they do exist. I dare not compare myself with those who kill people without blinking an eye."

After saying this, Yun Sheng deliberately lowered his body towards the young man in front of him, letting the scent of medicine on the young man linger on his side. "Besides, you know my eyes very well. How can a great killer in the martial arts world be a blind man?"

Shen Tang had always wanted to know what was going on with this guy's eyes, but she couldn't ask in this situation, so she could only dryly skip the subject.

"Since you have proven that you are qualified to be my subordinate, then you will work under me from today on." Since the other party approached her in order to take action in the future, she might as well keep him under her nose to prevent him from directly taking action against Jiang's father and others.

"Luya, tell him what to do and what not to do," Shen Tang said slowly, picking up her fur coat. The coldness between her eyebrows and eyes only dissipated a little after she saw Han Xinlian and the medicine bug. She had to quickly make the medicine bug into an antidote and send it to her father. As for Han Xinlian, she only needed to send someone to the medicine pavilion, and the person who made the medicine would naturally make the corresponding medicine.

Lu Ya responded, and after Shen Tang took the insect medicine and went into the house, she blocked Yun Sheng outside and talked incessantly about her young lady's preferences and principles, fearing that missing a word would cause dislike in the eyes of the young lady. As a result, Yun Sheng was unable to follow Shen Tang into the house, and the impatience on his face could hardly be concealed.

"Dad, I found the drug bug, look," Shen Tang hurried to the main room of the old pavilion and handed the box in his hand to him, "This insect poison should be the source of your illness, but now that it has become a drug bug, you only need to boil it into medicine and take it to detoxify it."

The old master was naturally a little surprised when he saw the medicinal insects in the box. Just as he was about to ask where the insects came from, he saw a tall figure appear outside the house.

"This kid..." The old pavilion master shouted in surprise, "I didn't expect this kid to come back alive from the Thousand Snow Mountains."

Seeing Yun Sheng's appearance, it was not difficult for the old pavilion master to think of the promise between the other party and Shen Tang. In addition to the appearance of the drug bug, he had more or less guessed the source of the antidote.

"I never thought that at my age, I would receive such favor from you," the old pavilion owner laughed, "Now that you have joined the Jiang family, the safety of my boy in the future will be entrusted to you."

Shen Tang called the loyal servants around his father to boil the medicine, and he stayed aside to watch his father talking to the male protagonist. If this cheap father knew one day that the poison in his body was put by Yun Sheng, I wonder if he would regret his actions today.

"Please rest assured, Master Jiang. I will definitely not let the young master fall into danger!" Yun Sheng clasped his hands together and bowed to the old pavilion master, who nodded in satisfaction.

After Shen Tang instructed the old servant about boiling the medicine, he no longer stayed in the old master's house, but went to his own room.

"My rules, I think Lu Ya has already told you, except for those personal maids, no one is allowed to enter my house, and this naturally includes you, you should be very clear about this," Shen Tang said with a brisk pace, and the young man's clear voice was very pleasant to the ear, but Yun Sheng followed behind him like an emotionless wood, and after quietly answering "yes", he did not reply anything. This is in line with the style of the executioner in Shen Tang's memory.

Not letting Yun Sheng get close to her residence, to some extent, was a way to get rid of a big threat. However, she still had to be on guard against him poisoning her daily diet or sneaking onto the roof to assassinate her. Shen Tang had experienced this before, so she set up three layers of traps inside and outside the house, so that she could respond immediately if someone broke in.

Little did he know that during the first few days after entering the mansion, Yun Sheng was preparing for the restoration of his eyesight while investigating the structure of the Jiang family mansion, which allowed Shen Tang to live a peaceful life for a while. Unfortunately, this good life did not last for a few days, and Yun Sheng was ready to take action, which happened to give him the opportunity to assassinate.

"The next day, the Jiang family's servants went out to buy groceries, leaving only one maidservant by the Jiang family's young master's side. The Jiang family's young master had a habit of only calling someone to watch outside when he was bathing. This was the best opportunity to assassinate Yaoge's son."

Yun Sheng rolled up the letter in his hand and tied it to the pigeon's leg. He then released the pigeon. The corners of his lips slightly raised. It seemed that his task would be completed soon. It would not take much effort to deal with a weak and sickly person.
