However, what she didn't expect was that during the day, whenever there were strangers around, Lu Feng would cover her mouth again to prevent her from shouting for help.
But Su Qingci was not a pushover either. Whenever he needed to be checked when leaving the city, Su Qingci would keep banging on the car walls and kicking them loudly, trying to attract people's attention.
But Lu Feng was obviously prepared. She did this a few times, but no one paid any attention to her.
Su Qingci was certain that the soldiers patrolling the city gate outside the car must have heard the noise, but they just didn't come to check.
On several other occasions, soldiers wanted to investigate the situation, but Lu Feng sent them away with a gold ingot.
Su Qingci didn't know how she did it at first, but then she opened the heavy purse and showed it to him, "Just give up on this idea. No one will come to save you."
"Money makes the world go round, you should understand that."
Su Qingci was furious and anxious, she knew they would not let her go.
But fortunately, after observing her while traveling these days, she found that Lu Feng didn't want to treat her unfairly.
As long as she doesn't run away, Lu Feng won't put shackles on her or gag her.
Even when it came to food, she was never treated badly.
They all ate steamed buns and steamed bread with pickles and drank them with water.
But what Su Qingci received were packed lunch boxes from the towns he passed through. The dishes in the boxes were a combination of meat and vegetables, and they were different every day.
Su Qingci felt like he had found a new method.
Since they care about her safety, they won't let her die.
If you hurt the enemy a hundred times, you will hurt yourself eight thousand times. Su Qingci came up with a bad idea, but she thought it would be useful.
She began to go on a hunger strike, and later on, she even refused to drink water.
But this action was indeed a bit scary. Lu Feng was frightened by her. At first, he didn't want to hurt her and tried to persuade her with kind words.
Later, I found out that she was too stubborn and I completely ignored her words.
Lu Feng didn't care anymore and took the kettle, trying to force the water into her mouth.
The action was so rough that Su Qingci choked and vomited, coughing all over.
Lu Feng also started to panic.
If the movements were too light, he would not be able to drink the water; if the movements were too heavy, Su Qingci would torture himself with self-harming behavior and simply refused to drink the water.
If people don’t drink water, they will show symptoms of dehydration in three or four days, and will die in a little over a week at most.
In just three or four days, Su Qingci lost weight. Although it was not obvious in other parts of his body, his chin became noticeably sharper.
Lu Feng also got angry and asked her, "Are you really not going to eat or drink?"
"Don't you want to live anymore?"
Su Qingci leaned against the car wall weakly, "As long as you don't let me go, I won't drink water."
"I wonder how you can report to me if I die."
Lu Feng didn't believe it, and she didn't want to indulge Su Qingci, so the two of them were in a stalemate.
But she didn't expect that Su Qingci was so stubborn.
Su Qingci, who had finally fed them the water, took advantage of their inattention and spit it out by holding his throat.
Lu Feng was so angry that he wanted to pour water into me again. Su Qingci said, "Don't waste your time. No matter how many times you feed me, I will find a way to spit it out."
"If you don't want me to die, turn around immediately and send me back."
"I will let bygones be bygones."
Lu Feng didn't reply to her, but asked the guard driving ahead, "How long will it take to get there if we travel day and night?"
The people Lu Feng brought with him were all able to ride horses and drive carriages. In the past few days, the women outside had been taking turns driving the carriages.
The horses they rode and the horses tied to the carriages were all capable of running a thousand miles.
The person sitting on the road was replaced by a female guard. She looked at the sky that was about to darken and said, "At the earliest, it will take about a week."
Lu Feng was silent for a cup of tea, then silently took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve.
"Hold her down," she ordered.
Two female guards beside her pressed Su Qingci's shoulders and hands on the left and right. Lu Feng poured out a brown and black pill the size of a mung bean from the bottle, controlled her jaw, and forced the pill into her mouth.
Su Qingci didn't know what she had fed him. He struggled hard and wanted to pick his throat. While being held down by two guards, Lu Feng forced him to drink a few more sips of water.
After making sure she had taken the medicine, Lu Feng let the two of them let go.
Su Qingci felt her mind was a lot more confused and she felt a little dizzy, but she still wanted to dig her throat and spit out the pill.
Lu Feng: "Don't waste your energy. This medicine will dissolve in water and will take effect soon."
His hands and feet hung down limply, and soon, Su Qingci fainted.
The two female guards became a little scared when they saw that she was motionless.
"Sister Lu Feng, what medicine did you give her? I hope she's okay."
Lu Feng: "This is a fake death drug."
"He just fainted. It's a state of suspended animation. He appears to have no breathing or pulse, but it's actually only a mild case. He's still alive."
"When will she wake up?"
Lu Feng: "He will wake up in about a week."
"During the next few days of the journey, you two will watch over her and feed her some water with a spoon every hour. Don't feed her too much to prevent her from choking."
Although the state of suspended animation does not require food, it will take about a week to complete. Lu Feng is also afraid that something really might happen to Su Qingci, so he has to be prepared.
Lu Feng was tired from battling wits and courage with Su Qingci these past few days, so he said to them, "I'm going to take a nap in the carriage at the back."
"yes."
