The Elixir is for You, The Poison is for Me

#768 - Girl behind the water tank

Oo-oo peeked out from the front of Lu Jing's clothes, and was visibly stunned by the blood mist outside.

Then it started spinning around with the magic of love.

Just when Lu Jing thought he couldn't count on it either, Oo-oo unexpectedly stopped, then jumped down from Lu Jing's hand and stumbled forward.

Seeing this, Lu Jing hurriedly followed.

Oo-oo ran for a while and arrived outside a restaurant.

Logically speaking, Lu Jing should have been more cautious at this time, first finding a way to investigate the situation inside before going in, but the One-Eyed Taoist gave him too little time.

He only had the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and after that, Lu Jing had to return to the small courtyard.

If he factored in the return trip, he had even less time to use.

In addition, this group of strange objects had already fought with Jiang Yue Nu and others for a long time, and were probably exhausted.

So this time Lu Jing chose the simplest method, directly knocking out Chao Yuan, whom he was carrying, and then kicking open the door of the restaurant.

Soon, an axe came down on him!

Lu Jing reached out his other hand to block the man's arm, but to his surprise, the man's arm suddenly swelled by a foot!

The axe, which originally couldn't reach his head, could now.

"Hm?" Lu Jing grunted softly.

However, he was only slightly surprised, and there was no panic on his face. He quickly followed up with a kick to the man's chest.

But before the snake could even bite, its head flew up, having been directly chopped off by a flying sword from Lu Jing's sleeve.

Besides these two, Lu Jing also saw an old man dressed as a beggar, carrying an iron hammer. He tried several times to lift the iron hammer and throw it at Lu Jing, but failed because of the injury on his shoulder.

He wanted to try again, but the next moment, a small sword suspended in mid-air was already aimed at his throat.

After subduing these three, Lu Jing looked around.

He found ten more people lying on the ground, six of whom were seriously injured, and four who were simply dead.

"Where are the others?" Lu Jing asked.

As a result, the three only glared at him with hateful eyes, and no one spoke.

"I'm not here to arrest you," Lu Jing said. "I'm only here to ask a question, and I'll leave after I ask it… By the way, who's the leader here?"

The girl who used the soft whip simply spat on the ground this time.

Lu Jing sighed, but before he could say anything, he heard the beggar who was using the iron hammer to support himself say, "Do you keep your word? If you take me away, will you let the others go?"

"I said I'm not here to arrest anyone, including you. I won't take anyone away," Lu Jing said. "Besides, that wasn't my fault. I just wanted to find someone who could communicate rationally. I haven't even asked my question yet."

"What do you want to ask?" The old beggar stopped the two companions who were about to rush up again, and勉强stood up from the ground with difficulty.

"Did you help someone who was being hunted down by the Si Tian Jian before?" Lu Jing asked.

The three strange objects looked at each other and shook their heads together.

Lu Jing was speechless, "Are you three treating me like I'm blind?"

"We won't betray our companions," the girl who used the soft whip looked at Lu Jing with hostile eyes.

"You've already betrayed her," Lu Jing said. "She's also in this restaurant, isn't she?"

"No," the girl who used the soft whip tightened the soft whip in her hand.

"Where is she?"

"… … … …"

Lu Jing glanced at the kitchen not far away, and seeing a hint of nervousness in the eyes of the girl who used the soft whip, he said, "The kitchen? Thanks."

After saying that, he ignored the three and walked towards the kitchen.

The girl who used the soft whip wanted to stop him, but was stopped by the old beggar, "Let him go, we can't stop him."

The girl who used the soft whip's expression changed several times, and finally she could only stop unwillingly.

Lu Jing walked to the kitchen door and turned his head and said, "I'll give you a piece of advice, you look like this… it's best not to lie in the future."

The girl who used the soft whip's teeth itched with anger, but Lu Jing had already walked into the kitchen at this time.

At first, he was worried that Kui was injured, otherwise there was no way to explain why he rushed into the restaurant and fought with the three people in the hall, but Kui had not shown up during this period.

But when Lu Jing saw Kui again in the kitchen, he found that she was very clean and had no wounds or bloodstains.

Lu Jing breathed a sigh of relief at the sight.

This was of course good news, not only meaning that Kui was safe and sound, but also that if she took off her disguise, restored her original identity, and then对外宣称that she just happened to appear here when the Si Tian Jian and those strange objects were fighting, she could hide what happened before.

Well, it's best if she goes back with Lu Jing later and rejoins the One-Eyed Taoist, and the three of them work together to solve the blood corpse, so that no one will suspect her even more.

Just when Lu Jing was thinking about how to help Kui whitewash, he noticed that Kui's expression seemed a little wrong.

Before, the few times the two met, no matter what the situation, no matter how bad the environment, Kui was unmoved, and the whole person was like a moon shadow in the water, calm and composed, without too much emotion.

But this time, Lu Jing clearly felt many small and complex emotions from her.

She hugged her knees and hid behind the water tank in the kitchen, trying to curl her body into a ball, burying her head in her knees.

However, just hearing Lu Jing's footsteps still made her tremble all over with fright.

"Kui… Kui Supervisor, it's me, Lu Jing, I'm the only one here," Lu Jing whispered to Kui behind the water tank.

Hearing his words, Kui's body finally didn't tremble so much, but she still didn't raise her head or speak.

She looked like an overly frightened deer.

Lu Jing tried to carefully move the water tank in front of her, and Kui, who had finally calmed down a little, fell into a panic again.

She chased after the water tank until she hid behind the water tank again before she calmed down again.

Now it was Lu Jing's turn to be embarrassed.

He wanted Kui to leave with him, but he couldn't bring the water tank with him, right? Not to mention that it was heavy, the key was that he was already carrying a Chao Yuan.

So he still had to find a way to work on Kui's thinking.

So Lu Jing put down the water tank and leaned to Kui's ear and comforted, "Kui Supervisor, I don't know what you're afraid of, but I know you must have seen that well, but no matter what happens after that, it's not real, it's just the effect of that strange object."
