Wen Qingzhu's heart trembled, but his face remained calm.
The old man turned his head and looked at the more than 200 people in front of him. His eyes became distant: "Taking my children to the battlefield is not what I expected, but we have no retreat. The Wu clan... has no hope."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ba Xuanye and his men appeared at the entrance of the road under the mountain.
Seeing the person coming, Wen Qingzhu breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the Eight Patrol Nights came first. If it were the Grand Patrol Night Patrol, they might have to go all out.
"Women and children come to the back!" Wen Qingzhu shouted.
If there was any hope of living, she hoped to leave it to her children.
"No need!" A young woman holding her daughter shouted and insisted on objecting.
But then, the old man from before spoke: "Cui Cui, come here with Xiaoyu."
Although the indignant young wife looked dissatisfied, she still led the little girl over.
When Wen Qingzhu saw them walking in, he discovered that the little girl had injuries on her face, and that the woman named Cuicui had bruises and scars on her face and hands.
Even through the clothes, Wen Qingzhu could still see that there were more injuries on Cuicui's body.
"You..." Wen Qingzhu's breathing stopped.
The old man turned around and said, "Cui Cui's husband noticed that they were about to run away and wanted to stop them. There was a fierce conflict, but Cui Cui was better at martial arts and escaped with Xiao Yu."
"You actually don't have to escape." Wen Qingzhu fell silent.
Cuicui sarcastically said: "Stay here to work as a cow and horse for them? Their family did take me in at first, but it was because he couldn't find a suitable wife. I married their 30-year-old son at the age of fifteen, and gave me They cook and have children, what else do they have to be dissatisfied with! They keep talking about taking me in all day long. If my mother hadn’t threatened to die, and I followed my brother to death in the war, I would never have married into their family!"
Wen Qingzhu understood in his heart that Cuicui always had the blood of the Teng family and the blood of the Teng family.
She walked up to them and took out the medicine.
Who knew Cuicui stopped her: "I don't need your charity!"
"You don't have to, but can you make the decision for Xiaoyu?" Wen Qingzhu looked at her, "Xiaoyu endured the pain all the way, can't you see it? As her mother, this is how you take care of your daughter?"
Cuicui was silent.
But Xiaoyu suddenly started crying and waved his hands to Wen Qingzhu: "Sister! I don't want your medicine! I'm not afraid of pain! I'm not afraid of it!"
Xiaoyu turned around and hugged Cuicui's leg and said, "Aniang! I'm fine! It's okay! Look! Look! I'm not crying! Don't send me back! I want to follow Aniang!"
Wen Qingzhu looked at Cuicui and handed her the medicine: "Give your daughter the medicine."
Cuicui reached out to take it, squatted down and applied medicine to Xiaoyu. The bleeding stopped and the pain disappeared.
Xiaoyu's expression instantly became better.
Cuicui looked at the medicine in her hand and looked at Wen Qingzhu's back with complicated eyes.
Wen Qingzhu walked up to the old man and said to him, "Thank you for coming. I will try my best to protect you."
After saying this, Wen Qingzhu turned to look at Ba Xuanye over there,
He and his men stopped ten feet away.
The Teng family members who came over temporarily had already lined up temporarily, with their spears pointing outwards, forming a protective formation.
Wen Qingzhu walked behind them, looked at the Eight Patrol Nights in the distance and said, "What order did the priest give?"
"Kill you!" Ba Xuanye said without any nonsense.
Wen Qingzhu smiled: "It's a pity that you can't kill me immediately now."
"I know." Ba Xunye looked at Wen Qingzhu quietly.
When he met Wen Qingzhu for the first time, he knew that she was a difficult person to deal with.
After so many days, Wen Qingzhu turned the Wu clan upside down, and finally stood still. Ba Xuanye felt that Wen Qingzhu was a more powerful woman than Long Dai.
"Do you think you can beat the rest of us?" Wen Qingzhu glanced at the people around him.
There are less than a hundred men from the Teng family who came here, but they can still deal with the Eight Patrol Nights.
Wen Qingzhu smiled: "Have all the poisons in the bodies of the Eight Great Masters been released?"
Ba Xuanye's expression didn't change much.
The Teng family was very surprised. Wen Qingzhu's poison could not be cured by Eight Patrol Nights
But Wen Qingzhu couldn't talk nonsense. She had to deal with the eight patrols before the big patrol arrived.
"Hu Sen! The Eight Patrol Nights are left to you!" Wen Qingzhu turned his head and looked at Hu Sen.
He nodded and walked over with the support of the guards.
He learned a lot while following Jiang Yuanhan.
Most of them are how to deal with the Eight Patrol Nights.
Wen Qingzhu took Xi'er and the women and children of the Teng family toward the cave.
Originally some people were reluctant, but Cuicui came out and said: "The men are not dead yet. It won't be too late for us to come out after they are all dead!"
As soon as these words came out, the rest of the people followed Wen Qingzhu down.
After they came down, they all looked around curiously.
Wen Qingzhu asked Xi'er to look after them here. At the same time, he observed and found that Cuicui was a literate person.
"Cui Cui, follow me to the ancestral hall."
Wen Qingzhu needs someone to help.
Cuicui nodded and led Xiaoyu to follow Wen Qingzhu.
When they arrived in the control room, Wen Qingzhu told her all the operations.
After listening, Cuicui was a little confused.
Can these joysticks control external mechanisms
Wen Qingzhu had already anticipated her reaction. He walked past the pillar, pointed at the words next to the joystick and said, "If you can't remember, look at the words above."
"Yeah." Cuicui was still a little confused.
Wen Qingzhu asked her to look at the opening of the iron pipe again. When she saw their way up the mountain, Cuicui took two steps back.
"How can it be!"
"Nothing is impossible! It's the safest down there. Originally, I wanted to stay down there for the time being, but since you can read, you can just take my place here."
"You want to fight up there?"
Wen Qingzhu smiled: "I'm different from you, I don't have martial arts."
"Then why did you go up?" Cuicui was confused. It was Wen Qingzhu who asked them to come down just now.
Wen Qingzhu smiled deeply: "Because I am Wen Qingzhu, the Marquis of Pingguo, your priest and the person Long Dai wants to kill the most."
"You are actually-" Cuicui couldn't help but cover her mouth.
The Wen Qingzhu in front of him turned out to be the woman who had recently killed so many night watchmen.
Suddenly, Cuicui's eyes began to admire Wen Qingzhu: "You are very powerful! My father said that it is one thing to be good at martial arts, but some people who are not very good at martial arts also have great abilities."
"Take good care of the little fish. When the iron pipe vibrates later, you will need to control these poles."
Wen Qingzhu stood in front of an iron pipe whose outside could not be seen clearly, pointed and said: "Knock once to control this, knock twice to control this..."
After explaining everything one by one, Wen Qingzhu asked her, "Do you remember it?"
"Well, if I can't remember it, Xiaoyu will remember it." Cuicui touched her daughter's head, and she was listening carefully to Wen Qingzhu's words.
Wen Qingzhu nodded, took out two more Purple Gold Pills, handed them to them and said, "Actually, this place is not safe. The bones over there are proof. If poisonous gas invades and you are accidentally poisoned, remember to take this medicine, which can detoxify."
"Can any poison be cured?" Cuicui took the pills and smelled a refreshing medicinal fragrance.
Wen Qingzhu smiled: "Most of it, but at least it can save your lives for the time being."
"Thank you, madam." Cuicui thanked her dearly.
Xiaoyu also whispered his thanks.
Looking at their mother and daughter, Wen Qingzhu's heart felt a little rippled. After returning to the capital, and after settling Prince Ning, she might try to have a daughter.
Turning around and leaving, Wen Qingzhu went up.
As soon as he appeared, a flying arrow shot over.
Wen Qingzhu had already felt a sense of crisis, so he ducked sideways and barely escaped.
Not far away, the Teng family was already fighting with the eight patrolmen.
There were already several corpses on the ground, and many seriously injured people were lying on the ground, letting their blood flow.
The three Teng brothers who had met before were actually able to tie up Ba Xuan Ye and let Hu Sen lead the rest of the Teng family to kill the people Ba Xuan Ye brought over.
Wen Qingzhu walked to the old man and sat down on the stone with him.
She looked at the pile of gravel on the ground and saw a section of iron pipe buried inside. As long as the time came, she would knock on the iron pipe and the mechanism would start.
"Madam, I have seen the three night patrols."
Wen Qingzhu looked at him in surprise, what kind of existence was San Xuanye
As a night watchman and a member of Long Zhi, he has been helping her during this period, but in fact, he still has contact with the Teng family.
"Well, please tell me."
The old man looked over, looked at Wen Qingzhu and said, "He is my grandson."
Wen Qingzhu:! ! !
"Seeing that Madam is so surprised, she must not understand." The old man smiled.
Wen Qingzhu really didn't understand. If she remembered correctly, the sister who patrolled the night on the third night killed the son of this visitor!
San Xuanye wholeheartedly protects his sister, isn't that also an accomplice
There was a fight in the distance, but here Wen Qingzhu and the old man were chatting comfortably.
The old man looked into the distance, his thoughts drifting a little: "Lao Cheng's son should have been the hero of the Teng family, but he is not worthy of being a Teng family. Lao Cheng drove him out of the Teng family early, but he didn't want him to live outside the Teng family. Not bad, but he died at the hands of his own daughter in the end.”
"I know this. The third patrol night told me."
"He is such a person. Although he hates his father, he is very good to the rest of his relatives. After he was abandoned, he decisively found me, but I couldn't take him in because I was also being watched. I gave him two choices. , one is to run for night watchman, and the other is to leave here completely."
Wen Qingzhu interrupted him: "Aren't night watchmen trained from birth?"
When the old man heard this, his eyes were full of disdain: "They want to start training him from birth, but this term of the Witch Clan priest is not qualified at all! I think his judgment of Lord Ryūdai was wrong at the beginning!"
"Do you think so?" Wen Qingzhu once again heard someone questioning the wizard priest.
The old man's tone was still full of disdain: "Of course, Lord Longdai is actually very powerful. At least during my years in Wushen Mountain, I saw with my own eyes how she broke away from the priest's control step by step, and how she gained military power in Cangzhou step by step. She could even cooperate with the priest regardless of the past grudges, but the priest was so stupid that he actually refused!"
"Wait! Did Long Dai seek cooperation with the priest?" Wen Qingzhu suddenly stood up.
She never knew this news, if you put it that way.
Isn't it possible that both she and Jiang Yuanhan have no way out!
