This was the most exciting part to watch. Lin Mengya continued to watch and observe without any inhibition by the window.
Initially, there were only three figures, but soon, more came that made up a total of five.
Long Tianyu furrowed his brows a little because he discovered that more people had entered the courtyard.
However, those who arrived later were like those who arrived earlier in that they too did not possess any martial art skills.
This was strange. Given that there was only one big ice cube in there, why did all these men want to gather inside?
The presence of so many men created quite a stir outside.
Under Lin Mengya's special arrangement, the four men in the two rooms had fallen into such deep sleep as if they were dead. There was no sign of the men coming out of the rooms to interrupt them.
Those shadowy figures could no longer be bothered about the surroundings and became bolder
Lin Mengya focused her attention as she tried to find her bearings in the room, and then she smiled a grim smile.The room was covered with very thin threads that had been laced with mild poison.Fortunately, the Shen Nung system was extremely sensitive in terms of its alarm system.Although Lin Mengya could not tell exactly how many threads there were hidden in the pharmacy, the Shen Nung system had pinpointed the locations where the herbs were most concentrated.It was no wonder that no one was allowed to enter this place.The poison covering the threads would not cause much harm to the human body.However, once it came into contact with exposed skin, it would cause rashes to break out, swelling, and unbearable discomfort.Moreover, these thin threads were definitely connected to some kind of alarm system. Even if it failed to capture the intruder, he would be easily traceable.
The lantern grass needed great effort to cultivate. In the past, only wealthy families could afford to enjoy it.Today, most of it could only be found in temples."Could this be the place where the people in the Pavilion of Herbs offer sacrifices?"Long Tianyu spoke with a deep voice, while still holding on to Lin Mengya in his arms. What he said almost made Lin Mengya jump.Offer sacrifices? If this was the case, there ought to be an exit somewhere."This is possible. Since we have some lantern grass here, let's burn it to make a brighter flame."Zuo Qiuyu's tone sounded rather bizarre.Together with Yu An, the two of them groped around and seemed to have found the oil for the lamps.In the twinkling of an eye, the light drove out all darkness and lit up the entire place.Finding it difficult to adapt to her surrounding so quickly, Lin Mengya rubbed her eyes, and soo
At the mention of this incident, a rare ruthless look appeared in Zuo Qiuyu's eyes."My master was truly superb in his medical skills although he was not an authoritative elder in the pavilion. Nevertheless, he was in no way less reputable than the rest in those days. However, those men had come together and plotted against my master! Somehow they had managed to escape although I tried many times to find the evidence against them. I never imagine my master's body would be found here."At Zuo Qiuyu's words, Lin Mengya could make out 70-80% of what happened.Since the Chief Elder had taken her mother, who was the eldest princess, in as his disciple, Master Yuan, who had taken Zuo Qiuyu in as his disciple, was certainly outstanding in his medical skills too.If she guessed correctly, Master Yuan was the candidate chosen by the Chief Elder to succeed him.In an attempt to usurp the position of the Chief Elder, Nan Rui had
With a big push from Long Tianyu and Lin Mengya, the statue of the king of medicine fell onto the floor with a loud "Boom".Like Zuo Qiuyu, Long Tianyu and Lin Mengya was stunned.Why was the statue of the king of medicine be so light?Moreover, the statue of the king of medicine did not shatter.The three of them stood rooted to the ground, stunned. All their gazes were fixed on the statue on the floor."Uh..."Lin Mengya held back her words in hesitation. Initially, the primitive-looking statue of the king of medicine appeared to be heavily laden with its history.However, given the situation, Lin Mengya took a more careful look at it and realized that the statue seemed to be hollow. It was probably made of hardwood overlaid with metal.When she recovered from the shock, she could tell that the opening at the base of the statue could probably accommodate the size of a person.
This group of rebels among the subjects had never stopped working since the generation of Zuo Qiuyu's father.Later on, when Zuo Qiuyu was fifteen years old, someone even attempted to poison the two princes in order to usurp the throne.If Master Yuan had not risked his life to test the medicine as a guinea pig, Zuo Qiuchen and Zuo Qiuyu would have died without knowing the reason.Later on, those evildoers even sent men to pursue their lives. Once again, it was Master Yuan, together with his friends, who gave their all to send the two brothers back to the palace.Later on, Master Yuan returned to the Pavilion of Herbs and continued corresponding with his disciple through letters.However, Master Yuan's health deteriorated because he took the poison on behalf of the brothers."In the last letter from Master, he cautioned us that those men were coming after me and my brother. In addition, Master said that my
Lin Mengya did not reply to him instantly.Long Tianyu turned to look at her. He did not understand what had gotten into Lin Mengya."I'm aware that you don't like to get into the fight with the Crown Prince. If you really wish to lead a quiet life, then I will---""What are you talking about? You're a prince of Dajin and it's only right for you to give it you all to your nation. I was only joking with you."Lin Mengya lifted her head abruptly and her expression did not betray any emotions.Long Tianyu quietly breathed a sigh of relief. For reasons unknown to him, he had the feeling that something was troubling Lin Mengya."Oh yes, Elder Chang mentioned the name "Shen Xie" which made an impression on me. Do you remember this name?"In fact, when Elder Chang mentioned the name, Lin Mengya thought that this name sounded familiar. It ought to have appeared in her memory some time.Ho
When she finished speaking, her delicate and fair-complexioned hand jerked abruptly.He revealed a huge red peony in full bloom in his hand."Allow me to put it on you. Let's see if it looks good."In that instant, a fragrant scent floated past. Lin Mengya opened her teary eyes as he put the brilliant peony in her dark hair."Where have you been? You damned fox!"She grasped tightly onto Qinghu's clothes and leaned into his embrace. She sounded like she had spoken through clenched teeth.This damned guy had left without a word. Not only did he not bid goodbye, but he also did not say where he was going.To her, Qinghu was like an extremely protective and kind elder brother.Although she felt the say way towards Lin Nansheng, Qinghu had after all stayed by her side day and night. She was like the apple of his eye.It was only natural that her sibling-like relationship
"If this is indeed true, wouldn't this person's power be comparable to that of a king?"Lin Mengya was struck dumb with surprise. Although she had deduced that this mysterious man behind Qinghu was so powerful that he had direct access to the highest authorities.However, from what Long Tianyu said, she almost felt that what she knew was just the tip of the iceberg.Long Tianyu's countenance appeared rather dignified."No, perhaps that person behind Qinghu indeed possesses great power on a certain level. However, the king is someone who governs an entire nation after all. No matter how formidable that man is, there's no way he could have the same kind of control as a king. Nevertheless, if we are talking about the situation in the Nation of Lintian, he only needs to nurture a puppet emperor and the Nation of Lintian would fall into his hands. My father, the emperor had long discovered this man's existence. However, after years of i
The wolves didn't come forward, but she heard the sound of leaves rubbing together.Looks like it was the head wolf.Lin Menya wasn't the least bit intimidated, but the head wolf's behavior was strange, it didn't make an attacking gesture.Instead"White!"The first rays of morning light blossomed and she saw the white pelt, hidden in the shadows.Heart racing, she embraced the huge figure that came hurtling at her.Unexpectedly, her little white, won!"You're really good, you came and singled out someone's boss, okay, a bit of my style!"The surprise made Lin Menya relax her entire body, but something wasn't quite right with Xiao Bai.After it plopped down on Lin Menya's body, it actually didn't move.Scared, she thought what was wrong and cleanly checked the wound for White.But what I didn't expect to hear first, was the little one's hoots and hollers.After half a day's messing around, Kohaku was exhau
"But, but we don't have silver, food and weapons, and how can we fight against those people with these 2,000 people and more?"Nie Qing stuttered a bit, he had been to the battlefield, naturally he knew that these things were not a matter of having many people."These, I have my own ways. But right now, it's a perfect time to sharpen. After dawn, the guards stationed inside and outside of Kanakura City will definitely search the mountain. If utilized properly, these two thousand or so people will become the heart of Jin Cang City. At that time, we'll eat away at these people's power little by little."An extremely large plan formed in her mind.Though she knew that there was no rush, right now, it was sort of the only way to house the two thousand or so people."You mean, let us occupy the mountain as king? That won't work, in case if the Wei people slow down and concentrate their forces on attacking us, how can we defend ourselves with just these two t
The one who spoke, was not very tall, and had only suffered a little because he was a prisoner of war.But in the end, after the army, baptized by war, the essence is still good.And, he's probably the superior of those five.The five men stood behind him out of habit, not saying a word.Lin Menya glanced at the man and couldn't help but light up.His eyes were clear and godly, with only the undaunted defiance of a soldier, without half the slipperiness and accidents of a soldier's oil, only a good soldier.The heart, too, is in the right place."In a while, let's go into the mountains and hide for a while first, with so many people, there's always a need for laws and rules. Since you've been in the army, I'd like to ask you to do these things, is that okay?"The man didn't realize that the GodEmperor was actually going to entrust him with such a thing.At once, the flame of grandeur in the man's heart was ignited.He looke
She quietly picked up the raw meat and practically crawled her way to the man's back, getting closer and closer to the man as she practically held her breath.Suddenly, the man turned his head around in a flash as if he had sensed something.Lin Mengya didn't care about anything else, the raw meat in her hand that was dipped in anesthetic, gagged the man's mouth at once.The man, shocked and angry, tries to escape.But she didn't know where the strength came from, both hands wrapped around the man's neck and tightly stuffed the large chunk of raw meat in the head of the man's mouth, refusing to part.The man, of course, was much stronger than she was, and only panicked for a moment before using his hand to tug at the flesh around his mouth.Lin Mengya was in a hurry and kneed the man in one of the acupoints on his waist.The blow was so steady and hard that the man lost a lot of strength at once, and her hand, never left the raw flesh.
Looking at the lock that was half a pound heavy, Gong Ping sighed.In fact, to this day, he didn't know who this fuss was really about.But looking at Missy's distraught look, he didn't dare to ask more.All I know is that what the lady is looking for is a large metal cage."Let's find it first, and be careful this time before someone sees us."Locked warehouses are usually guarded.This is the boundary of Kanakura Harbor, and those who are in charge of the patrol are also from Kanakura Harbor.These are the crew members who work on the ship and make their rounds on weekdays when they have nothing else to do.Lin Menya and Gong Ping dodged a group of people by virtue of their skinny bodies.But soon they were lost in the midst of dodging."How much longer do we have to look, miss?"The two crouched in the corner, Lin Moya's eyes, tightly focused on a crew that had just disappeared.Just now, they were so close t
If the nominal Gong Ya was still here, then she could have arrogantly and incomparably fought the auction with the intention of competing with the other party.But on the contrary, she couldn't easily reveal her identity.If one Lin Mengmai wasn't enough of a warning, then adding another Zhu Yan made the problem much more obvious.Lin Mengya was also thinking of a countermeasure, if it really didn't work, she would repeat her trick and use the same trick that Bai Su had used earlier to muddle through.But now that she was unprepared, it would be bad to reveal anything instead.However, the bidding didn't quite end there.Once they heard the Mu family bidding, the general public wouldn't dare to follow them.But there were still one or two, who felt that the teenager and the beast were strange, and had the guts to call for a price.Soon, the price climbed to six thousand taels.Those few families had subsided, the expensive price
But the third auction, however, made every Gong family member's heart feel a bit clogged.Because on the list, there were three dozen people from the Gong family that were being auctioned off as house slaves.Those people are the deepest hidden scars of the Gong family.From the moment the five sons of the Gong family entered, the atmosphere was, well, somewhat oppressive."My lord, the people sent by the lady have arrived."Gong Yang was still guarding the outside, but he led in a boy who was dressed, all ordinary."You go down."Gong Si waved his hand, allowing Gong Yang to leave.Turning, he asked in a low voice."What did Missy tell you to pass on?"The boy hung his head low, but pursed his lips and smiled."Missy said to spend the silver as she pleases and smash whoever she sees as disagreeable."Gong Si smiled along with him, but reached out and pulled the boy in front of a few other brothers."See,
"Hiss, why are you guys so heavy handed, trying to strangle me? Get out!"Lin Mengya yelled at the two female slaves in disgust, and the two immediately fell to their knees, trembling."Who are you playing pathetic and condescending like that for? If it weren't for me, you'd probably be dead!"She continued to curse, and Gong Si just couldn't stand it and ordered them to be taken out."Miyaya, how could you?""Why can't I be like this? Don't forget who's the head of the family!"Before the two slave girls went out, they heard an argument coming from inside.As slaves, they had to hang their heads lower to save themselves from the waves.How could the two of them know that since they went out, the atmosphere in the box had changed all of a sudden."Go on, keep an eye on them."Gong Si casually beckoned an attendant and softly commanded, the place where his line of sight fell, right where it should be, was the direction where
"I'm used to being at home. I went out in a hurry this time and didn't bring a few satisfactory maids with me. I see that on the list for today's auction, there are female slaves trained by the Rong family. I would like to ask Mr. Lu to ask for a few in advance, do you think it's okay?"Though she played it in the name of consultation, her tone was unquestionable.Lu Feng hesitated slightly, and she immediately pulled a face."I have let you earn a lot of silver, right, so a little request can not be done, you this business ah, do not often."She was not polite in the slightest, and her voice was not small enough to be heard by anyone around her.Gongbin frowned, not the least bit displeased that she was being so capricious.He was just about to open his mouth, but he was pulled back by Gong San."Big brother, little sister is a girl after all, delicate and weak, she should also find someone to serve her. How about this, Mr. Lu, these female
