Chapter 273: Black Rock Village (Second update)
After having a full meal, Jiang Zhiluo got busy in the afternoon.
She had to quickly prepare all the medicinal materials into medicine.
Cui Qingci seemed to have something in mind and asked, "By the way, sister-in-law, do you want to continue soaking the mung beans you soaked last night?"
Hearing this, Jiang Zhiluo remembered that she was still soaking mung beans.
“It’s already soaked. Wash the mung beans, grind them with a stone mill…and then filter them…”
“After filtering it with gauze, let it sit and you can make mung bean powder tomorrow.”
I was originally planning to make mung bean jelly tonight, but it seemed like it was a little too late.
Cui Qingci has been learning to cook from Jiang Zhiluo for more than a month. When Jiang Zhiluo told her how to do it, she understood it immediately.
She knows everything including how to filter.
“Sister-in-law, I know, it’s just like making kudzu powder.”
“But this is polished with a stone!”
Cui Qingci has used a stone mill, so he naturally knows how to grind things.
Besides, with Mrs. Cui at her side to help, Jiang Zhiluo doesn't have to worry about this.
She went to an empty guest room to tinker with her medicinal herbs.
She also has a complete set of tools, including special tools for pounding and grinding medicine.
She was busy until the evening, and Jiang Zhiluo didn't even bother to eat. She prepared packets of medicine.
She plans to do some activities in the evening.
So I ate, washed, and went to bed at night.
Jiang Zhiluo actually didn't feel sleepy after lying down.
It’s just that she didn’t want Cui Hejin to worry, so she lay quietly like this, waiting for Cui Hejin to sleep.
After a long time, Jiang Zhiluo felt that Cui Hejin should be fast asleep, so she quietly got up.
Jiang Zhiluo watched Cui Hejin sleep soundly, and then slowly got up.
Go down to the ground quietly.
Then quietly walked out of the room.
She went to the next room, got fully armed, and set off.
It’s just that Jiang Zhiluo didn’t notice that there was a figure standing on the roof of her home, standing in the wind like autumn water in the sky.
Cui Hejin has not slept.
He still knows very well whether his wife is sleeping or not.
Every time he listened to her shallow breathing, he knew that she was asleep, and he could sleep peacefully.
But it didn’t happen this night.
Cui Hejin couldn't sleep well thinking about what happened in the morning.
So when she got up in the middle of the night, Cui Hejin would naturally know.
It's just that he didn't want to disturb her.
He supports what she wants to do, but if she doesn’t want others to know, he pretends not to know.
Cui Hejin hid her aura, so Jiang Zhiluo didn't notice anything.
Jiang Zhiluo walked quickly in the dark night, heading towards the direction of the Black Stone Village.
She also knows the direction of Black Rock Village.
In the early morning, Jiang Zhiluo arrived at Heishizhai.
This is a steep and steep mountain range in the westernmost part of the town.
If it weren’t for Jiang Zhiluo’s wood power, it would have taken a lot of effort to get here.
At this time, everyone in Heishizhai was asleep except for the people who were watching.
A few people who were out looking for a walk found a place to sit, yawning again and again.
"Let me tell you, our place is remote and steep. Most people won't come here at all, so there is no need to patrol."
“We will patrol if the superiors ask us to patrol.”
“Now that I’m going to be the boss, don’t let anyone doubt it.”
“No one can come to this place, don’t worry!”
“It’s true, even on a hot day, we want to sleep inside, but we have to go out to feed the mosquitoes.”
“Be patient, after those untouchables collect the grain, our task of robbing the food will be considered completed, and we will take credit when we go back. Besides, our mission is not dangerous, and those untouchables have no strength and do not dare to compete with us.”
“Haha, there is still a way from above. The untouchables are most afraid of bandits. Let’s pretend to be bandits. Their food is robbed and they don’t dare to resist. When the time comes, we will kill them all if they don’t like it.”
“Yes, and you can blame the people on King Duan’s side.”
"The Jian family has offended someone and is now under control. In the entire county, no one can stop us from doing what we do..." "The food we snatched back this time is enough for us to eat for the next few days, so there is no need to worry."
“Besides, Naxigu Village is secluded, even if a fire is set, no one knows what’s going on in their village.”
These people are very dissatisfied with patrolling outside to feed mosquitoes, so they are saying these things without taking human life seriously.
They couldn’t wait to rob the grain, and planned to transport it out by water transportation.
They not only planned to rob food, but also planned to kill people and put the blame on King Duan.
It's really a strategy that kills two birds with one stone.
It's a pity that Jiang Zhiluo will not let such people live.
Jiang Zhiluo sprinkled some medicine and let them breathe it in with the wind.
“Dong dong…”
After these people fell, Jiang Zhiluo went up and tied them up, then gave one of them the antidote, asked questions about Blackstone Village, and after getting some information, he stabbed them all a few times to ensure that they were all safe. He was so dead that he entered the stronghold.
This place was originally an abandoned cottage, and no one has been there for a long time.
I didn’t expect that the eldest prince’s people would use it as a stronghold and hide more than a hundred people.
Jiang Zhiluo used the wood power to hide her aura and went in quietly.
She has seen the skills of the four killers, and naturally understands that the people from the First Prince's faction are not ordinary people.
Perhaps there are experts in the village.
So she stayed hidden.
The terrain of the mountain village is difficult to explore and is very complicated.
Jiang Zhiluo quietly investigated the situation.
I saw some grain piled up in some places. The sacks were different, and some sacks had blood stains on them.
It can be seen that these people robbed the food.
It is not known how many people were injured.
Jiang Zhiluo looked at those sacks and knew that they were the sacks used by farmers to carry grain.
Most of them are woven with twine, and some are woven roughly.
At the thought of some hard-working farmers being killed by these people, Jiang Zhiluo felt a strong murderous intention.
Most people were asleep at this time.
Although it is summer, it is windy in the middle of the night.
Especially in places like mountains, there is a lot of wind.
Jiang Zhiluo concentrated her expression, quietly found the place where the so-called boss lived, and released the prepared poison.
She originally prepared the drug.
She thought that if these people were not guilty of death, she would at most use drugs.
Who would have thought that these people were so cruel and ruthless.
If these people are not dealt with, we don’t know how many innocent people will be killed.
Jiang Zhiluo's eyes were filled with murderous intent.
No wonder when we arrived, there was no one in the village of more than ten households at the foot of the mountain. The village seemed to have been burned down by fire.
It turned out that it was these people who did it.
Jiang Zhiluo quietly released the poison.
In the silent night, these cruel people died silently in their sleep, and no one knew.
But there are also people who are alert.
“Poison!”
“Everyone, get up, get up!”
Someone started beating gongs and drums in Black Rock Village.
But only a dozen people ran out of the house.
“Who dares to poison!”
“Here, here it is!”
The big boss ran out wearing a suit of armor.
He held a huge scimitar in his hand and slashed at Jiang Zhiluo.
Jiang Zhiluo could feel the strong internal force emanating from this man.
Looks like this is a master!
Beside him was a cold-looking woman, her whole body hidden in the darkness, holding a long whip in her hand.
