General is a Villain - Chapter 380
midnight.
Youpeng inn.
Near the border town, the wind outside the window has the unique flavor of the border town.
The shadow quickly shuttled through the darkness, like lightning, and got into the room of the inn.
There was no light in the room, only a dark figure sitting at the table, vaguely smelling the curling aroma of tea.
“Coming?” The man’s mellow and wide voice sounded in the room.
The man standing behind him bowed his hand and said, “I’ve seen you.”
“You’re welcome. How’s the situation in the border town? It’s getting better?” Yi Lan asked in a low voice.
“Mr. Hui, general, I hope you can delay for two more days.”
Yi Lan frowned. Along the way, he didn’t know how many days it had been delayed. Originally, it should have arrived in ten days and a half months at this speed, but mu Yi’an couldn’t find the crux and lift the danger of the border city. If the epidemic disease in the border city spread to Kyoto, Kyoto would be in panic at that time, which would become Mu Yi’an’s incompetence, but he wasn’t afraid of these, It’s just that Mu Yian hid it at the beginning. Now if he reports it to Kyoto, the Emperor may not be able to explain it.
“Is the epidemic coming?” Yi Lan asked.
In the dark, Yu Heng couldn’t see Yi Lan’s face clearly, so he whispered, “Hui Xiangye, I’m afraid this epidemic disease is not a disease, but a poison.”
Yi Lan unconsciously tightened the teacup in her hand. The disease was not disease, but poison.
In other words, someone poisoned the border town: “can you find out who it is?”
“The general has caught a fine work, which is from xitui. Now he has sent someone to find the antidote. He will be back in a few days. Please postpone it for another two days.”
Yi Lan sighed: “I’m afraid I can’t. grandpa Li has come four or five times today to persuade me to set out. Now the border town is close at hand. If I delay too long, it will only make him suspicious. At that time, even if the border town can pass, I’m afraid it’s not easy for the emperor to pass.”
“What should I do? It will take two days to get the antidote back.”
Yi Lan thought for a while and waved: “come here with your ears…”
……
Day by day, day by day.
I feel that time is in a hurry, as if a century has passed.
Yi Xiaoqiao looked up at the square skylight above his head, and his eyes were full of confused colors.
Han Youjun’s meal delivery time is not fixed. She doesn’t know what time it is now. She only knows that it’s day and light comes down from the skylight.
These days she has tried all kinds of ways, and even moved chairs, cabinets and stools, but she can’t touch the skylight.
“Little Joe?” Han Youjun’s head suddenly appeared outside the window and looked at her with a smile: “hungry, I’ll bring you dinner.”
Yi Xiaoqiao was silent.
Han Youjun put down the basket: “I know you’re bored. I brought you something.”
Yi Xiaoqiao looked at the things in the basket and almost scolded.
In addition to the usual food, there were also two small things in the basket, one of which was her familiar message box, and the other was a crossbow and arrow she had never seen: “what do you mean?”
“These two are mechanisms. You are already familiar with the message box. In addition, this is a crossbow and arrow. There are mechanisms in it. Be careful when you dismantle it. Grandpa said that from today on, you will study two mechanisms every day and you will have food only after you study them.”
“What?”
“Little Joe, I believe you. I’ll prepare roast chicken and braised fish for you for dinner. You must work hard.”
Han Youjun gave her a cheer gesture.
Yi Xiaoqiao took a swipe at the corners of his lips. You are sent by heaven to torture her!
If she doesn’t give food, she has to work. She’s locked up here now. How can she be in the mood to work!
“Where’s Mu Yian? I asked you to deliver the letter. How’s it going?”
Han Youjun lay on the edge of the vent and said with a smile: “you dismantle it first. After dismantling it, assemble it. I’ll show it to Grandpa later. Grandpa said he had passed the customs, and I’ll give you the reply.”
Reply?
“Did he reply?”
“Want to see it?” Han Youjun shook the letter in his hand.
Yi Xiaoqiao stepped forward, almost kicked over the basket and looked at the letter eagerly.
Unfortunately, he soon took it back: “eat quickly. When you’re full, do good work. When you’re done, you can show it to you.”
Although Yi Xiaoqiao is very unwilling and unwilling to be coerced by others, he has no other way to think about himself. At present, he is trapped and can’t get out. He can only endure like this first.
She nodded silently, “OK, I’ll dismantle it.” Anyway, you can’t see if you don’t dismantle it. It’s good to return to Zhao when it’s finished.
“Don’t be lazy, and don’t be sneaky. Grandpa is an expert in the inspection mechanism. If you don’t dismantle it or are lazy, grandpa can see it at a glance“
“…” Yi Xiaoqiao was depressed.
“Don’t worry, I will tear them down a little bit and break them up in pieces!” Yi Xiaoqiao clenched his teeth angrily.
Han Youjun smiled and tied up the empty basket: “you can do it well. I’ll go.”
“Oh, yes.” Han Youjun looked at her: “I’ve found the right materials for the things you want. I’ll make them for you and send them back.”
“Really?”
“Never lie to you.”
Han Youjun finished and left with the basket.
The sound of roof tiles moving gently came from the roof. It must be that Han Youjun really left.
Found the material? Found the material so soon.
She thought she couldn’t make those things in this era. It was just a chance to put it forward at the beginning. After all, she didn’t use other swords easily. The scalpel was something she had played since she was a child, and she was most familiar with it.
It would be great if it could be done.
Yi Xiaoqiao thought of this and felt more and more at ease.
After eating, take out the two things and observe.
There were only two candles on the table in the room.
Yi Xiaoqiao leaned over the table to take a closer look.
The message box is something she is familiar with. It’s not difficult to disassemble. It’s very easy. Take it apart in three or two times, put the parts on the table one by one, and then reassemble it. It’s already a pediatrics thing for her.
It’s just that crossbow. She’s never seen it.
When she was in the border town, she once asked the Han family to help forge a batch of bows and crossbows, but not the one in front of her. The bows and crossbows were snow-white with almost no impurities. It was difficult to find them in the snow, but the bows and crossbows in front of her were dark. The whole body was dark, and even the last feathers were dark. She stroked them gently. The bows and crossbows were cold, It is no different from the common bow and crossbow.
She went up to the bow, aimed at the wall and shot out.
The bow and crossbow poked into the wall, but there was no mechanism of rain and flowers.
She whispered strangely in her heart that the crossbow and arrow could not see any mechanism, but what did she tell her to dismantle?
Yi Xiaoqiao studied the crossbow for a while and didn’t see anything special. Then he walked over and grabbed one end of the crossbow.
I thought it was not easy to pull out the crossbow when it was shot in. Unexpectedly, I just pulled it out with a gentle drag. The relaxed strength even shook her, making her take two steps back involuntarily.
At the same time, something flew out of it and hit Yi Xiaoqiao’s face.
