Chapter 744 White Tea Green Knife
This woman looks younger than Ji Dingchen, probably around thirty-five years old, with a one-sided bun, shiny green hair, and delicate skin.
But her facial features are far from beautiful, and her dull eyes detract a lot from her appearance.
"I don't want it." After she finished speaking, she ignored the three people in front of her and continued to pour water into a bowl. Then she grabbed a handful of tea leaves and sprinkled them into the water.
The water is cold, and the tea leaves float on the water without sinking or losing color.
"Oh?" The woman blinked, "Isn't that so?"
"Are you thirsty? I'll take you to drink tea." Ling Yang took advantage of the situation and asked.
The woman nodded, brushed the strands of hair around her ears, and said, "Okay."
Jiang Po took another big bowl, poured a ladle of water and handed it to Ling Yang, "Drink a little before talking so much."
"...Are you blaming me?" Ling Yang was simply shocked. Does this guy have negative emotional intelligence? He actually laughed at himself in this situation?
"I'm just discussing the matter. You have a few sips. If you get close to the fire later, you will cough if it is too dry." Jiang Po suggested seriously.
"Hmph." Ling Yang squeezed the big bowl, filled a third of it reluctantly, and then gave the rest to Wu Daqing.
Jiang Xi motioned for everyone to wrap the cloth that had been soaked with water around their wrists, and then headed out.
The woman in white also followed Ling Yang and his party out of the kitchen.
"Do you think we should find one and send it out one by one, or should we search all the way and send out a batch at the hour?" Ling Yang asked his teammates for their opinions.
"If they are all so cooperative, just send them out in batches on the hour. If you go one by one, you will be very tired." Jiang Po said as he started to turn to the next intersection.
Ling Yang simply rolled her eyes and didn't answer. The things she was happy with would not be tiring no matter how hard she worked. The things she was not happy with would be hard no matter how much effort she put in.
The woman in white was very quiet and docile. She followed Ling Yang without asking any questions about who the three of them were, why they were tied together with ropes, or where they were taking her to drink tea.
Jiang Po's pace was very fast. If it took twenty minutes to find one person, it would take more than four hours for thirteen people. This was too inefficient.
Even if the time is halved if the troops are divided into two groups, the sunset limit given by Huang Yaer is too tight.
"Aqing, do you have the brand name?" Ling Yang and Wu Daqing were very close to each other, but Jiang Xi was several steps away from them and straightened the rope between them.
When Ling Yang spoke, the woman looked up, but she was not very interested.
"Here, do you want to know who she is?" Wu Daqing touched his pocket.
"Well, forget it, let's find someone quickly." Ling Yang gave up the idea of talking to the woman and just asked, "Do you know where your companions are? Invite them to drink tea together.
"
"Companion." The woman repeated.
"Well, men and women, people." Ling Yang pointed to the two men in front and behind him.
"I don't want it." The woman still said the words she had said in the beginning in the same calm and cool tone.
"..." Ling Yang was speechless and could only give up asking and continue the inefficient peek-a-boo investigation.
They directly chose a long corridor inside this area and walked around at double speed. When they were near the end, they finally met an old man in green who was running toward everyone.
"Strong man, please stay!" Ling Yang shouted loudly, but the uncle did not slow down at all. After being stopped by Jiang Xiang, he failed to take a step firmly and was confused in front of Ling Yang.
Jiang Po was originally afraid that someone would fall if they ran too fast and stopped him, so he just waved his hand to block him. Unexpectedly, he still fell, "Sorry, it's dangerous here, please——"
He bent down and tried to help the person up, but the other person stabbed him in the side of the shoulder with his backhand.
Jiang Po was able to avoid the sudden attack, took a step back, jumped up on the spot, and directly raised his leg to kick the uncle who was about to get up back to the ground.
This man was quite tenacious. After he fell to the ground again, he actually still held the knife in his hand tightly without taking it off. He then supported the ground with one hand and drew the knife parallelly with the other hand.
.
This knife was aimed at Ling Yang, who was standing next to him. Naturally, Ling Yang would not take the sword with his bare legs, so he took a step back.
Jiang Po still wanted to knock the person unconscious, but the first move was made by the woman in white who had always been indifferent to the things around her.
Because there was a rope tied between Ling Yang and Wu Daqing, the woman in white moved forward in the opposite direction while Ling Yang retreated to the other side, and lowered her waist to change directions with her.
The woman stretched out her leg and kicked the uncle on the ground, her toes accurately hit the blade of the knife below, and then she lifted it up slightly, easily removing the opponent's weapon from her palm.
"I don't want a knife." After the woman finished the action, she stood up again and said lightly, "I want tea."
"Drink, let's go now." Ling Yang leaned down slightly and spoke to the man on the ground, "Can you be good? There is danger here, come with us, you know?"
"Fire!" The man in green's emotional expression was much more obvious than that of the woman in white. He was quite scared and his expression was quite nervous.
"Yes, yes, fire, we are going to a place without fire, you come with us." Ling Yang patiently advised.
You can't knock them unconscious and take them away, just one or two, how can you drag more than a dozen people away?
But if they are all so aggressive, how can we get them out of the palace efficiently...
"Fire." The man in green repeated it again, this time pointing forward.
"Is there a fire there?" Ling Yang confirmed.
"Fire." The other party nodded.
"Okay, let's search the other side." Ling Yang made arrangements, but Jiang Xiu hesitated.
"Please, even animals know how to avoid fire, how can people with amnesia not be afraid of pain or death?" Ling Yang tapped the watch on his wrist, "We have only found two people so far, and these people are still in good health.
I don't believe that they don't know how to avoid it when the fire is burning right in front of their eyes."
"...You are right." Jiang Xi nodded.
"By the way, if it's sunset, no matter how good you are, you can't escape." After Ling Yang finished the warning, he realized that the tone of his speech was a bit like Huang Yaer, and he trembled quickly to get rid of this sense of language.
.
"Ah Qing." Jiang responded, and then made a gesture to Daqing at noon, meaning to ask him to pay attention to the movements of the two people. One seemed calm but struck quickly and accurately, while the other was not calm at all and might even be hiding.
Wear other weapons.
