Your Majesty, the princess is fleeing famine with her child!

Chapter 54: Something unexpected happened

"This morning I asked the villagers for a pot of water to make tea, but I found that the water tasted like intoxicating wood."

“Although the taste is very light and the dosage is not strong, I have been dealing with herbs for more than 30 years and I will definitely not make a mistake!”

Before Shopkeeper Hang finished speaking, Yun Fuling said:

"Not only the water delivered this morning, but also the broth and bread delivered last night, were lightly spiked with intoxicating grass!"

Shopkeeper Hang was greatly surprised.

Then I remembered that the smell of intoxicating wood was not particularly strong.

Last night, the smell of broth and noodles covered up the smell of the drunken wood grass, so it was naturally covered up. In addition, he was exhausted after the battle with the white tiger, so he did not notice it.

Unexpectedly, Yun Fuling noticed it.

Village Chief Zhou became visibly anxious, "Madam Yun, why didn't you tell everyone when you found out the food was poisonous?"

Shopkeeper Hang patted Village Chief Zhou on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, this intoxicating grass is not poisonous, it just makes people weak."

"The dose they gave was so light that it would take at least three or four days for symptoms to show up."

Yun Fuling nodded and agreed, "Yes, I was afraid of alerting the enemy, and I haven't figured out what these people's purpose is, so I didn't make it public."

Yun Fuling did not tell Xiao Jingyi the information he had heard last night.

This matter is of great importance, so it is better to keep it secret for now. It should be enough for only she and Xiao Jingyi to know about it.

Village Chief Zhou remembered his purpose and punched his palm, saying, "No wonder I've been feeling uneasy since I moved in last night. I always feel like I'm being watched."

Village Chief Zhou is an experienced man who believes in his intuition.

So early this morning, he came to find Yun Fuling to ask her for advice.

I don’t know when it started, but Yun Fuling gradually became the backbone of all of them.

Unexpectedly, I ran into Manager Hang at the door.

Now that he knew they had been drugged, Village Chief Zhou was stunned for a moment.

The first thought that came to his mind was to leave and get out of here quickly.

But since the other party has drugged them, they just don't want to let them go, so it may not be easy for them to leave.

Village Chief Zhou's eyes fell on Yun Fuling and asked, "Madam Yun, what should we do now?"

Yun Fuling smiled and replied, "You can live here peacefully. With me here, why are you afraid that they will poison you?"

"Many of our people are injured and need to rest here for a few days."

"Especially Wang Erhe, his current condition is really not suitable for movement."

"Let me first find out what those people want to do, and then I'll discuss it with you."

Village Chief Zhou nodded, thinking that Yun Fuling's words made sense.

At the same time, Village Chief Ma looked solemn as he listened to Liu Feng's report.

"Is there really a doctor with excellent medical skills among this group of people?"

Liu Feng nodded and said, "It's the best-looking woman with a child."

"I just found out this morning that one of them had his stomach ripped open by the tiger's claws, but the woman actually sewed up the man's belly with needle and thread."

"That person is still alive. I heard that he had a high fever last night, but now the fever has subsided and his condition is starting to improve. He will most likely survive!"

"I heard from those people that the woman's medical skills are very powerful. They were able to travel safely all this time thanks to her medical skills and herbs."

Last night, Yun Fuling went in and out of Wang Erhe's place, keeping a close eye on his inflammation, which naturally attracted the attention of Liu Feng and others.

After asking these people who were fleeing famine, they found out the reason.

It was the first time that Village Chief Ma heard that a person’s belly could be cut open and then sewn up with needle and thread, and that the person could still survive after being sewn up.

"There is such a medical skill in the world?"

He was shocked, and then he felt that something was wrong. "Oh no, that woman is such a skilled doctor, how could she not have noticed that we drugged her?"

Liu Feng also suspected this, so he hurried over to report it.

"Boss, what should we do now?"

Village Chief Ma took a deep breath and reminded himself to stay calm.

"Don't panic, they found out we drugged them, but why didn't they make any movement?"

"You didn't confront us or cause a commotion, and you don't seem to be leaving?"

Liu Feng narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Could it be that he has another plan? Or maybe he didn't even notice that we drugged him?"

After all, the amount of drug they put in was very light and not easy to be detected.

This is also because there are too many people on the other side this time, and they can even kill tigers, so they look very brave.

If they took direct action, they were not sure they could capture all the people, so they resorted to drugging.

In the past, when they encountered someone breaking into this area, they would capture the person directly, and either send him to the mine to do hard labor or kill him directly.

It’s not as troublesome as this time.

Before Village Chief Ma could come up with a plan, someone suddenly ran over and said, "Boss, something terrible has happened. The people we kidnapped last night somehow managed to escape."

"When they were fleeing, they happened to run into the group of refugees who had stayed with them last night."

"I didn't expect that the two groups of people knew each other. Now the outside is in chaos!"

Village Chief Ma kicked him and cursed angrily, "How do you do things?"

"Bring everyone with me!"

Village Chief Ma was not the only one who wanted to curse. Yun Fuling also wanted to swear at this moment.

She comforted Manager Hang and Village Chief Zhou, and planned to wait for Xiao Jingyi to come back, see the situation on Xiao Jingyi's side, and then discuss the next step.

Unexpectedly, when she was seeing off Manager Hang and Village Chief Zhou, she ran into Ding Mingrui and Yun Shanhu.

The two people seemed to be being chased by someone and were running for their lives in a panic.

As soon as they saw her, they rushed over as if they had seen a savior.

Yun Shanhu grabbed Yun Fuling's arm and spoke incoherently.

"Help... help!"

"This is a den of bandits, they are all robbers!"

Ding Mingrui added: "They arrested us last night and detained us all night."

"The people in this village are not good people!"

"Hurry, go, don't stay here!"

As they were talking, the people who were chasing Yun Shanhu caught up with them.

Those people quickly controlled Yun Shanhu and the others.

The leader saw Yun Fuling's stunned expression. In order not to ruin Village Chief Ma's plan, he suddenly came up with an idea to cover up the past.

He bowed to Yun Fuling and the others, and said apologetically:

"These people are from our village. Because they were traumatized in their early years, they are crazy and often talk nonsense."

"We had no choice but to lock them up, but today we were careless and let them escape."

"We are really sorry for disturbing you guys. We will take them away right away!"

Who knew that before the man finished speaking, Yun Shanhu had already shouted at the top of her voice:

"Nonsense!"

"I'm not crazy, and I'm not from here!"
