Chapter 113 The White Noodles That Bewitched the Mind
Jiangli Courtyard.
As expected, there had been a bloody storm inside and outside the yard. Ming Shi led his brothers to clean up the corpses inside and outside the two courtyards.
Yuan Niang hugged Jing'er tightly in her arms, and looked at the corpses being loaded onto the carts with resentment. Not long ago, a group of outsiders were hiding on the island, and they didn't even know anything about it.
Yes, the people who carried out the assassination on the two courtyards were all strangers. When Zhou Ershu and Dashuan rushed back from the fields after hearing the news, they saw the shocking and bloody scene, and their legs were shaking with fear.
Oh my god, what kind of island is this? There's always fighting and killing people, killing them like chickens without blinking an eye.
While Dashuan was deeply impressed, he did not forget to look for his mother, wife and children. Fortunately, Mingshi brought people in time and surrounded the two courtyards like an iron barrel.
The cousin who was teaching in the study was the calmest. Even though there was chaos outside, he continued to teach the children without changing his expression.
Aowu crawled on the ground contentedly, licking the bloody corner of his mouth.
The little guy remembered that his master said that he could not eat human flesh, otherwise, he would definitely have a full meal.
Mingwu's family deliberately went to the study window to take a look, and saw that the children were sitting well in the room, so they turned around and returned to Madam Yuan.
Fang also came from the backyard, carrying the awakened Lan Jie'er. Looking at the bloody scene in the yard, she was extremely angry: "Mother."
Madam Yuan glanced back at her daughter-in-law, then thought of the situation at Jianglin Pavilion. She quickly signaled to the Mingwu family, "Something must have happened to the Island Master and Madam Li. Go check it out."
"Yes."
After Madam Yuan finished giving instructions to the Mingwu family, she looked at her daughter-in-law Fang and said, "Take my sister back to the backyard. Don't let this unlucky thing hit the child."
"Yes, mother."
Jianglin Pavilion.
The island master was seriously injured, and his old illness had undoubtedly exacerbated the situation. The old man could only live for another three to five years. Now, even Jiang Li was somewhat helpless and could only use acupuncture and prescriptions to keep the island master alive.
Outside the bedroom, more than ten black-clad guards were ultimately no match for the young men of the tribe who had rushed over after hearing the news. Three or five of them were tied up with their backs pressed together and their hands and feet were bound.
Ming Ye, Ming Yang and others watched as their former brothers had distorted faces and were struggling violently. Some even had red eyes and bare teeth, like completely different people.
If they didn't recognize these brothers, they would have thought it was a devil in a similar skin.
"Brother, what should we do now?"
Ming Yang came to Ming Ye and looked at his brothers. They could not bear to kill them.
Not to mention that their parents are the elders of the clan, but considering the past friendship, one can't help but feel sympathy for them.
Ming Ye had no idea what to do. After thinking for a while, he turned around and went into the bedroom.
Jiang Li lifted up the fallen table and applied medicine and bandage to her arm. The pain made her eyebrows tremble constantly, and she gritted her teeth and took a deep breath.
Hearing footsteps outside the curtain, she quickly pulled down her wide sleeves to cover the bandaged wound.
Ming Ye lowered his brows through the beaded curtain and said with a cupped hand, "My lady, all the traitors have been captured."
"Is Mr. Fang still alive?"
"Replying to Lady Li, we have locked this man in the dungeon, if he is still alive."
"Okay." Jiang Li nodded. "What do those people outside have to say?"
Ming Ye's tone was obviously hesitant: "Madam, I feel like they have been bewitched."
Making excuses!
Jiang Li smiled helplessly, thinking that the punishment last time had no effect on this kid.
"Madam, I have no intention of making excuses for them." Although separated by a curtain, Ming Ye could still feel Jiang Li's distrust and explained anxiously.
Jiang Li was packing up the medicine box. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and first looked back at the unconscious island owner.
Even if the old man falls asleep for a while, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on for long.
"Mom~" At this time, Mingwu brought Anger into the house.
Little Ang'er was put on the ground and stumbled into the curtain by himself, his sobbing voice was so heartbreaking.
Jiang Li quickly picked up her little son. Seeing the child's red and swollen eyes, the old mother's heart ached.
"Ang'er is so scared?" Jiang Li didn't care about the pain in her arm and hugged the child tightly in her arms.
An Ge'er hugged Jiang Li's neck tightly and sobbed, "Mother, An Ge'er is scared~"
"Don't be afraid, mother is here." Jiang Li gently patted her son's back.
Her eyes fell on the two people outside the curtain, knowing that they were still waiting for her response.
The island owner is still unconscious and everyone is undecided.
Jiang Li thought about it, and finally came out from behind the curtain holding An Ge'er in her arms: "Let's go out and take a look."
"Yes, ma'am."
Jiang Li walked to the corridor and held Anger's little head with one hand to prevent the child from turning around to look.
From a short distance away, one could clearly see the guards in the yard who were tied up with iron chains. All of them had hideous faces. Some even raised their necks and gasped with veins exposed. Some even clenched their fists, trying to break free from the chains.
But they all have one thing in common: their eyes are red, their lips are pale, and there is a layer of black under their eyelids.
All these signs quickly made Jiang Li think of a possibility. She looked back at Ming Ye unexpectedly, then lowered her head and recalled that she had dealt with some special patients in her previous life.
"Ming Yang."
Ming Yang, who was standing by, stepped forward quickly: "Madam, I'm here."
Everyone saw Jiang Li whispering a few words into Mingyang's ear. Even Mingye, who was nearby, couldn't hear clearly what he said.
After receiving the order, Ming Yang nodded, turned around and left for a moment. When he came back, he was holding an unknown object wrapped in yellow paper in his hand.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other curiously.
Jiang Li gestured, "Don't get too close. Just let them see what's inside."
"Yes, ma'am."
Ming Yang did as he was told and carefully opened the yellow paper. Inside was a ball of white flour, which made the young men in the clan even more confused.
Just as Ming Yang walked past the guards at a distance with white flour in his hands, the guards saw the white flour and showed eager looks on their faces.
Some were sniffing wildly, some were gasping with their mouths open like drowning fish, and some were trying to pounce on me.
"Give it to me, give it to me~"
They all kept repeating these two words, some shouting at the top of their lungs, some begging with sad faces, completely losing their previous image of being the upright defenders of justice.
Seeing this, the young men were shocked and curious. Why did it seem that the guards were more greedy for white flour than beef?
Mingye and Mingwu turned to look at Jiang Li, confused. Mingye asked, "Madam, why is this happening?"
Jiang Li's lips curled up slightly. She was just suspicious before.
"You're right. They have indeed been bewitched."
When Ming Ye and the other young men heard this, they all gasped in shock and became even more curious about who was so capable that they could actually shake the guards of Jianglin Pavilion.
