Chapter 87 Poison
Chapter 87 Poison
Because of Nineteen's mischief, chaos broke out at the military camp gate.
Nineteen is very clever; it will provoke you and then run away. Soldiers on duty can just watch and let it go, but some soldiers who are off duty, seeing that Nineteen is no ordinary bird, become greedy and chase after it.
"Sanwazi, come back!" someone shouted to the soldier who had chased after them.
"Squad Leader Zhao, this is an eagle! I have to catch it; maybe I can tame it." Sanwazi, however, was not giving up and continued chasing after Nineteen.
The squad leader Zhao, probably worried that something might happen to him, hurriedly followed.
Yunyi originally intended to sneak in during the chaos, but when she saw someone coming out, she stopped rushing and followed the two people into the woods.
When Zhao Wuzhang and Sanwazi realized they couldn't find Shijiu, they discovered they had gone quite far. They hurriedly turned around and headed back, but before they could take two steps, their bodies went limp and they collapsed.
"Girl, are you alright?" Old Quan also ran over at this moment.
"It's alright." Yunyi shook her head, glanced at the soldier who had just fallen, and said, "Uncle Quan, we can go in together now."
And so, Lao Quan, who was supposed to be waiting outside, swaggered into the military camp with Yun Yi.
"Zhao Wuzhang, did you bring Sanwazi back?" someone joked.
"Third kid, you're going to get a beating again, aren't you?"
Old Quan didn't say anything, he just waved his hand, and with his other hand he was still holding Yun Yi by the collar, who was looking down, as if she had really been dragged back.
After all, he had been a soldier and an executioner for many years, so his murderous aura was not to be underestimated. Moreover, the sergeant in that formation had a full beard, and Lao Quan was the same way, so no one could see his true face. It was late at night, so no one would think anything was wrong.
"If nothing unexpected happens, that's the command camp." After reaching a secluded spot, Lao Quan let go of his hand, pointed to the left, and then pointed to the area behind him. "The supplies are in that direction."
Yunyi nodded: "I'll go..."
Before they could even speak, two lavishly decorated carriages arrived at the gate of the military camp. After stopping, a woman dressed in flamboyant attire stepped out first, smiling seductively and joking with the guards. Then she took out a token and said a few words.
Although they were some distance apart, Yunyi could still hear the woman's words clearly.
She was Hua Niang, the madam of Yi Qing Lou, who had come to deliver a girl to the commander.
The guards clearly recognized the courtesan; after exchanging a few teasing remarks, they let the girls off the carriage.
Even if you know them, you will still be searched, and carriages from outside are not allowed inside.
Eight girls came this time, and each of them was very beautiful.
"We specially prepared two chicks today, especially for the Commander," Hua Niang reminded him.
The guards knew the gift was for the commander, but they were still obliged to take advantage of the situation while searching the place. They just avoided the two virgins. Soon, the girls' laughter and teasing could be heard.
"Ugh, don't pinch me there!"
"I'm not wearing anything underneath, how could I hide anything?"
"How about I serve my brother after I have served the Commander?"
……
Although Lao Quan didn't have Yun Yi's five senses, he could still hear the teasing laughter. He immediately felt a little awkward and couldn't help but glance at Yun Yi, only to find that Yun Yi's expression was indifferent. It was as if... he couldn't quite put his finger on it, but it was as if nothing could move the girl in front of him.
"Uncle Quan, do you think if I blend in with these women, I can get close to Commander Huo?"
"Young lady, no, that's too..."
“We’re in danger now too,” Yunyi interrupted Lao Quan with a smile. “Go and find out if anyone here knows anything about the people who were captured. We’ll meet up on the hillside outside before dawn.”
Lao Quan could only nod.
Led by Hua Niang, the girls entered the military camp and were all taken to a tent to await the commander's summons.
The pimp who drove the carriage waited inside.
After all, once the service is over, the girls still need to be taken back; they're all money-making machines.
After Yunyi took off the soldiers' clothes, she also took off her night clothes. Then, when Hua Niang came out to ask the commander when to summon people, she went straight over.
"Don't wander around. The commander will come to inform you when he wants to see someone." The soldier glanced at Yunyi, assuming she was just a girl with Hua Niang.
Hua Niang nodded hurriedly.
Yunyi followed Hua Niang to the entrance of the barracks.
"Who are you? What are you doing following me? What... what did you feed me?" Hua Niang exclaimed in surprise.
"poison."
“You…” Hua Niang was speechless for a moment.
"If you don't believe me, you can try. If there's no antidote within two hours, you'll bleed from all seven orifices and die." Yunyi whispered in Hua Niang's ear, "Of course, you don't have to believe me, but if I can come in, I can also get out, but you'll be the one who dies."
"Who exactly are you? What do you want?" Hua Niang was a woman who had seen a lot and had been threatened more than once, so she quickly calmed down.
"I need to speak with the commander about something." Yunyi smiled. "I have no choice but to trouble you. Just send me over when he comes to ask for people later."
"But what if..."
"You have no choice."
"Alright," Hua Niang agreed, "but your clothes won't do."
This woman was clearly no ordinary person to have managed to infiltrate the military camp. Although it was still uncertain whether she had been given poison, she dared not take the risk; she didn't want to die.
Yunyi nodded: "It's up to Mom to decide."
Hua Niang led Yun Yi into the tent.
"Mom, these girls look unfamiliar," a girl said, coming closer.
"Why are you talking so much?" Hua Niang glared at the other person. "Shut up if you don't want to die."
The others who had spoken also shut up.
"Bitao, bring me a set of your clothes."
The woman called Bitao stood up, opened her bundle, and took out a pink dress: "This one suits you, little sister."
Yunyi nodded. The woman was about the same size as her, so her clothes would fit. She then went to the curtained area to change her clothes and simply tied her hair up in a bun with the wooden hairpin she had used before.
Although her face was disguised to make it more ordinary, when she changed into a gauze dress, she still amazed everyone. It wasn't her face, but her entire aura that exuded an indescribable ethereal beauty.
"What a pity." Hua Niang looked Yun Yi up and down. If her face were a little more attractive, she would definitely be stunningly beautiful. Maybe this is what they mean by no one is perfect.
Just then, someone outside called to Hua Niang: "The master wants you to take the young lady over."
