Chapter 416 [Hide the Truth]
[@Panda: Their guard team consists of seven people, and they are armed with long swords and red tassel spears.]
Jiang Lili glanced at the animal training ground and saw ten members of the circus troupe lying on the ground, either dead or injured.
Among them, the most tragic death was that of Xu Laoqi, who "tricked" Jiang Lili and Xin Che here. His eyes had become two bloody holes.
The animals, on the other hand, held their heads high with the arrogance of victors.
Jiang Lili suddenly had a good idea to delay time and avoid a head-on confrontation with the patrolling guards.
Jiang Lili said to Panda, "How about we clean up the place quickly and pretend that a large-scale animal training show is going on?"
There are so many people around now, it’s not easy for her to get rid of these bodies by simply giving out red envelopes.
Upon hearing this, Panda put his hands on his hips and began to direct his animal minions to clean up the corpses and wounded at the scene.
The golden python used its body to roll up the corpses and seriously injured circus troupe members on the ground and put them in a pile.
The two monkeys in the troupe found a large black oilcloth used for rain protection from the large wooden box where Master Mo and others kept the performance props, and pulled the oilcloth over the corpses.
The large oilcloth covering the corpse was slightly arched, looking a bit out of place in this large animal training arena. Jiang Lili looked at Panda and asked, "Isn't this large black oilcloth too eye-catching?"
Panda observed the protruding oilcloth, then whimpered at the elephant a few times.
The elephant flapped its ears to indicate that it understood. It moved a few steps and then lay down directly on the raised oilcloth, pretending to sleep on it to rest.
As if to take revenge on the humans who were abusing it, the elephant stood up and adjusted its sleeping position, stepping on the oilcloth a few times to make its "bed" flat.
The picture suddenly became harmonious.
The elephant's exaggerated tonnage fell on the oilcloth. Jiang Lili felt that the seriously injured members of the circus troupe who were still hanging on should be dead by now.
In just three or five steps, these animals worked together to cover up the "crime scene" completely.
Master Liao was stunned by the smooth coordination of the animals. He then turned his attention to the five captured members of the acrobatic troupe: "But how do we get these guys to cooperate with us?"
Xin Che turned the key to the handcuffs in his hand and said, "Of course, I'll reason with them."
He turned his gaze towards the five troupe members who had been captured alive and said, "I'll remove your handcuffs."
"When the patrolling soldiers come over later, tell them that they are conducting animal training and just discovered some minor disturbances."
"You know what to say and what not to say. Do you understand?"
The five handcuffed accomplices from the circus troupe nodded quickly.
Master Liao, in coordination with Xin Che, stuffed a Liuwei Dihuang Wan into each of the five men. "What I just fed you was poison. If you don't take the antidote within seven days, you will die from the poison."
Poison is too expensive, so to save costs, we can use a small pill like Liuwei Dihuang Wan to scare these people. Anyway, these scum who regard human life as worthless will die today, just a little later.
The five people looked at the two and a half year old baby saying such harsh words, and the expressions on their faces were very interesting for a moment.
However, just as Xin Che was uncuffing the five men one by one, one of them immediately broke free from the handcuffs and rushed out, trying to escape.
Xin Che moved his wrist, and a scimitar was thrown out from his sleeve, shooting towards the back of the fleeing man's head like a cold star.
With a "swoosh", the escaper's head was pierced by the flying knife and blood gushed out, splashing directly on the faces of the remaining four people.
The remaining four people were caught off guard and had blood splashed all over their faces. They were about to scream in fear, but were frightened into silence by Xin Che's look.
Xin Che calmly withdrew his hand: "Clean your face, you know how to do the rest?"
The four of them were pale at this time, like frightened birds. They nodded repeatedly and wiped their faces with handkerchiefs.
Xin Che simply said, "If one of you four fails, the others will die."
The four of them immediately looked at each other, as if reminding their teammates to be careful.
Before, some of them had planned to hire someone to capture these three people alive and search for the antidote from them, just like the person who just escaped. But now they dared not have any bad thoughts at all. With this living devil in front of them, they could not escape at all.
Not to mention that these birds of prey actually listened to this group of people obediently.
They have been training animals for many years and have never seen anyone who can communicate with animals so smoothly. Today they really hit a wall.
Jiang Lili looked at the four people and saw blood stains on the clothes and hair of some animals.
She looked around and her eyes fell on a cage of live chickens next to the animal training field. These live chickens were originally used to tame the wild beasts in Cuizhu Garden, and now they could serve as a cover.
She brought the chicken coop over, took a live chicken out of the coop, and cut the chicken's neck with a dagger to let the blood out.
Under Xin Che's arrangement, the four animal trainers each took an animal and began to pretend to train.
Xin Chejiang Lili rearranged the painting tools and taught Panda, the panda, how to "paint".
At this moment, a patrolling guard trotted over from a distance and walked over quickly. "What happened here just now? Why did I hear people screaming and animals roaring?"
A beast trainer immediately responded, "Master, doesn't my eldest prince have many ferocious beasts in his Bamboo Garden?"
"We have been ordered to tame these beasts. Today is the first day of taming, so it is inevitable that there will be some noise. Please bear with us."
As he said this, he took out a hundred coins from his waist and stuffed them into the guard's pocket: "Use this money to buy some wine for you gentlemen."
The guard took the hundred coins, noticed the blood on the trainer's body, and saw the killed chicken at his feet. He couldn't help but complain: "These tigers and snakes can eat so many chickens in one meal, and we brothers don't even have much meat for a meal."
The guard following behind him also had some resentment on his face: "Only those who go to war can eat well."
As he spoke, he noticed that there were only four animal trainers present. "By the way, I remember your troupe had fifteen people. How come there are only four of you?"
Another animal trainer quickly said, "The others are tired. We were resting earlier, so we're taking over now. Besides, our animal training skills are much better than theirs."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and pointed towards Jiang Lili and Xin Che: "Look, we've trained this iron-eating beast to draw!"
"What? Iron-eating beasts can draw? Are you kidding us?"
The guards all looked in the direction he pointed out out of curiosity.
