Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 486 Su He used poison to lead people to escape

Su He thought that he would go up and explore the way when it was late at night. It would be best if he could poison them all and then burn two of them to death. He could then call in the soldiers for the rest.

The premise is that they can run away first, otherwise everything is just empty talk. Su He looked at the wooden lid on top, which was thickly placed on top. The reason why it was not closed tightly was because he was afraid that they would suffocate to death.

Su He asked the children to stretch their arms and legs. She probably wouldn't give them any food, fearing that they would make a fuss after eating too much. But how could she trick people into coming down at night? It seemed that she had to pretend to be sick. She whispered a few words to Qingming, who was leaning against her, and the two of them agreed to close their eyes and rest.

As expected, the children were so hungry that they didn't get any food no matter how hard they tried. They only got a jar of water from the people. They didn't dare to ask for anything from these people because they were too fierce and scary. Su He knew that it was useless to ask because these people wouldn't give anything.

Finally, at night, Su He heard that there was no movement from above. She quietly leaned over and tried to move the lid, but it didn't move. She knew that there must be something pressing on it, and it couldn't be opened by brute force.

She came down and gave Qingming a wink, and then she heard Qingming holding his stomach and screaming: "Ouch, ouch,..."

Su He climbed halfway up the ladder and called out, "Uncle, uncle, come and take a look. Someone has a terrible stomachache. What's going on?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard someone coming over and cursing, "Why are you not sleeping so late at night?"

Su He quickly said, "Uncle, her stomach hurts so badly that she's rolling around. It must be really painful."

The man moved something with force and opened the lid. He walked down and saw that the little girl was sweating from the pain.

In fact, that was the water that Su He sprayed at her with her mouth. He thought about going up and bringing down a bowl of hot water.

Who knew that he suddenly passed out. He was really dead. Su He would not leave trouble at this time. Killing one less would be one less. He could not be soft-hearted at this time.

Fortunately, this was in ancient times, otherwise in the original society, she could only knock people unconscious and tie them up, but she did not dare to kill people casually, otherwise she would also be sentenced to death.

She asked Qingming to calm the other three children down and tell them to listen to her instructions and run up as soon as they heard they could go up.

She quietly climbed up the ladder, stuck her head out, and saw a man drinking in the yard. He was already drunk and was still drinking.

She climbed out timidly, and just as she stood still, she pretended to be scared and stammered to the man, "Uncle, the uncle downstairs asked me to bring some hot water down, the child has a stomachache."

The man looked at her, pointed at the teapot on the table, and asked Su He to go and get it. Before Su He came over, he reached out and grabbed Su He.

Of course Su He would not let him catch her, so she just threw away the powder in her sleeves, then dodged to the side, saying, "Uncle, I have to get down quickly, the little girl is rolling on the ground in pain, and you are holding her down!"

The man said drunkenly, "What's the matter? Come here and let me take a look at you..."

As he said this, he fell sideways on the table. Su He went forward and sniffed his breath, but there was no sound. This guy was also killed by Su He.

Su He did not stay for long, but tiptoed to the window and blew the powder in with a hairpin. The two ends of the hairpin could be unscrewed, and the middle was hollow, which could be used as a blowpipe.

After blowing through both rooms, Su He paused for a while and felt that it was enough. He quietly came to the entrance of the cellar and called softly down, "Qingming, come up!"

Su He started putting firewood in front of the door and also put a bundle of firewood next to the guy in the yard.

A few children from the bottom of the cellar came up trembling, and it took Qingming a long time to push them up.

After they came up, Su He signaled them not to talk or move. She pulled the car in the yard over. Fortunately, Su He knew how to drive.

Qingming and the children got on the carriage, and Su He led two horses, one to pull the carriage and one to follow beside. They quietly opened the gate and drove out. This house happened to be at the entrance of the village, so they were out of the village soon. After carefully identifying the direction, they followed this road to escape first.

When they stopped the carriage at the entrance of the village, Su He asked Qingming to drive the carriage slowly forward and wait for her outside the village where there were no people. He handed her a packet of medicine powder and told her to scatter it if there were any bad guys. There was also a knife in the carriage for self-defense.
