Chapter 458: 1 Woman, 6 Husbands, 7
Qingluan quickly took out the jade bottle and threw it towards Lingxiao.
"Ling Xiao, I'll give you this precious pill. I don't want it anymore."
Ling Xiao was surprised and delighted, he jumped over to take the jade bottle.
Seeing that the jade bottle was about to fall into Ling Xiao's hands, Zi Chen no longer cared about Qing Luan and jumped towards the jade bottle.
Qingluan quickly sat on the giant eagle and urged it to take off.
The giant eagle flapped its wings and glided towards the cliff, flying dozens of meters away in an instant, out of Zi Chen's range.
Qingluan patted the giant eagle, asking it to fly higher.
He turned around and yelled at the two people under the tree.
"Zi Chen, Ling Xiao, forget it. This precious elixir is mine. We will never meet again. Hahahaha..."
Qingluan patted the giant eagle to make it speed up. Zi Chen's hidden weapon was extremely powerful, so he didn't dare to gamble.
Zi Chen already knew that he had fallen into a trap. Ling Xiao opened the jade bottle and found that it was empty.
Zi Chen quickly climbed up the tree and shot two more arrows, but the distance was too far and he couldn't hit the target at all.
Zi Chen watched Qing Luan flying farther and farther away and could only give up helplessly.
It was almost noon when we returned to Shuanghe Village.
The five people gathered together again to discuss countermeasures.
Ling Xiao frowned, "Jin Yu, are you saying that there are no clues left in the cave? The Queen's treasure is only that precious pill?"
Jin Yu nodded, "After you left, Liuyun and I searched the cave several times, and there are no dark rooms or basements in the cave."
Ling Xiao was somewhat unwilling. He was the only male general in the Daxing Dynasty and had been stationed at the border for many years.
This time, we were defeated in the war with the Mu Dynasty due to a shortage of food and fodder.
He was seriously injured by the enemy general and fell into the waterfall, which is why he appeared here. He was later rescued from the river by Li Nanxi.
Only when he came here did he discover that Jin Yu actually also had a stone tablet that he had carried with him since childhood. It was also then that he knew that this stone tablet could actually open the Queen's treasure.
That's why he stayed. He went there for the gold and silver in the treasure. Now he is told that the treasure is only one precious pill. How can he accept this?
Jin Yu touched his chin and said, "I didn't expect that the Queen's treasure only had one treasure chest, or... we haven't found the real treasure yet."
Zi Chen nodded, he also didn't believe it.
"I think Jinyu is right. Qingluan thought he got a great deal, but maybe what he took away was the least valuable."
Liuyun curled his lips, "He got a precious pill, what do we have?"
Liuyun felt itchy when he thought of the legend that the Queen's treasure contained magical weapons. But now, he didn't even know where the treasure was and all the clues were lost.
Jin Yu was also very disappointed. He had heard that the Queen's treasures included the jade seal and the tiger talisman.
If he got the jade seal and the tiger talisman, he could appear in front of people as the second son of the marquis's mansion, and he wouldn't have to be suppressed by his elder brother in every way. It was a great pleasure just thinking about it.
Unfortunately, now it has become a moon in the mirror and a flower in the water.
"Well, we don't have any clues now. We can only try to search nearby."
Zi Chen and Ling Xiao nodded. This was the only way.
The meeting ended here. Liuyun shook his head and left. He might as well go back and inherit the family business. This illusory treasure might all be a lie.
Ling Xiao and Zi Chen also left one after another. Jin Yu patted Qingge on the shoulder and left as well.
Qingge felt miserable, he was just a small musician, and although he had some fame, most of the people who followed him were just doing it for show.
He wanted to achieve eternal fame with the phoenix-tail harp in the treasure, but now he has lost more than he gained, and he doesn't know when his injuries will heal.
...
Nan Xi listened to the discussion among them and thought that they would start a fight, but she didn't expect that only Qingge was injured, the others were intact, and Qingluan even ran away.
The remaining five people were discussing in a friendly manner what to do next.
Xiaoying and Xuanlin began to rub their hands again, "Master, leave it to us, let them know how powerful we, the Black and White Devils, are."
Nan Xi nodded and gave Xiaoying a task.
"This time we can focus on it, let's waste it."
Xiaoying and Xuanlin nodded and excitedly took the order and left.
Last time we were counting on them to lead the way to find the treasure, but now that the treasure is in our hands, they are no longer useful to us.
After a while, bursts of screams were heard from the room again.
This time, Jin Yu and the other four were beaten badly. Not only were they covered with wounds, but even after they recovered, they were unable to use any strength and became completely disabled.
Jin Yu lay on the bed, feeling completely hopeless. He still wanted to make a name for himself, but now, how could he turn things around?
Ling Xiao was almost going crazy. He was able to become a general because of his natural supernatural powers. Now that he had become a disabled man, how could he lead troops to fight?
Qingge was injured on top of her injuries. Not only was her leg disabled, but her arm was also broken.
"My hands... my harp... let me die!"
He originally made a living by his piano playing skills. Now his hand is disabled and he can no longer play the piano. What should he do?
Liuyun's weak true energy now dissipated without a trace, and even his dantian had a hole in it, leaking air.
He lay on the ground with a dull look in his eyes, imagining himself becoming a weak person who was unable to even lift a finger. He didn't want to live anymore.
Zi Chen's face turned purple. He tried hard to reach the antidote not far away, but the distance was so close that it was as difficult as climbing to the sky.
He clenched his fingers tightly but did not move at all. He watched the antidote and then died of the poison.
...
Early in the morning, the sound of horse hooves startled the livestock in the village, causing them to jump around.
"Everyone, come out! Gather at the grassland!"
Shouts were heard in the village, accompanied by loud scolding and screams.
"Gather quickly, anyone who is late will be killed!"
Nan Xi looked up and saw that the village had been occupied by a group of bandits.
This group of people are all fat and strong. They not only have sharp weapons, but also ride tall horses. It is obvious that they are not ordinary people.
The leader was a sturdy woman.
Nan Xi got up and went to the roof. In invisible mode, no one could find her.
Soon, several robbers searched Nan Xi's house and captured the four men. As for Zi Chen, his body was already stiff and no one cared about him.
The villagers were squatting in the grass, huddled together.
Jin Yu and the others were singled out and placed in the middle because of their outstanding looks.
The bandit leader Iron Lady looked at the four people with surprise in her eyes.
"Whose husbands are they? Stand out."
After a while, no one came out to claim it.
The Iron Lady squinted her eyes and said happily.
"Since no one claims them, they belong to us. Second Brother, take them away and reward them according to their merits."
"okay!"
A dark-skinned, equally strong woman stood up. She brought four men with her and took the four people away like chickens.
Qingge screamed in pain. He was the most seriously injured and when he was lifted up, he touched the wound.
"Be careful. If you break them, the boss will beat you up."
The second one roared ferociously, and the four subordinates then became gentler. They changed from carrying Jin Yu and the other three by hugging them and took them away carefully.
