Chapter 105: The Emergence of an Internal Traitor
A gentle breeze blew in, blowing the woman's crimson skirt.
The woman, however, paid no attention and went to push the coffin lid. When the coffin lid was pushed open, the moonlight shone into the coffin, and the handsome face of Ye Feng, which was somewhat pale, could be vaguely seen.
The surroundings were quiet, and the wind seemed to have no sound at all. The red-clothed woman's eyes flickered, and she suddenly reached into the coffin. Just as she was about to grab the corpse inside, a voice suddenly came from outside: "Miss Yanyu, why are you committing this grave robbery?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Wu and others had already surrounded the woman in red.
But the woman in red saw herself surrounded, yet she was not surprised. She simply raised her head and swept a glance over the crowd, then smiled coquettishly and said, "Who says pretty girls can't do things like thieves and bandits?"
The woman's voice was elegant and made people feel comfortable after listening to it. The face of the red-clothed woman was also beautiful, a mature beauty, looking at her appearance, she should be almost forty years old, but there was still a flush on her face, like a young woman who had just married and been pampered.
Everyone was stunned by the woman's stunning appearance for a moment, but soon, Wen Meng and Hua Wan'er recovered. After all, they were women, and when women saw beautiful women, their first reaction was to admire them, and their second reaction was probably jealousy or pretending to be disdainful and self-righteous.
"Who are you, and why did you steal the corpse of Ye Fengluo?" Wen Meng asked the red-clothed woman coldly, and with this question, Hua Lang and the others also came back to their senses from their astonishment.
The woman in red smiled faintly, reached into the coffin and stroked Ye Fengluo's corpse as if it were a lover's caress. But as she touched him, her words suddenly turned sharp: "I am Ye Fengluo's enemy."
Everyone was shocked and immediately became vigilant, while at this time, Hua Lang found a chair to sit down and said calmly: "I'm afraid the poison on Medicine King Ye Feng's body is yours?"
The woman in red smiled slightly and shook her head: "No!"
"Really?" The crowd was skeptical.
The woman in red seemed to have no intention of escaping, she nodded slightly: "That's right, it wasn't me who poisoned him, he took it himself, I just brought the poison to him."
Everyone looked at each other in dismay, not believing the red-clothed woman's words. She brought out the poison, wasn't it to poison someone? Otherwise, Ye Fengluo would have known it was poisonous and how could he have eaten it?
The wind brought a bit of coolness, and Huā Láng tightened his sleeves, saying: "Medicine King Ye won't be foolish enough to take those poisonous medicines himself, will he?"
The woman in red held her chin with one hand and leaned on the edge of the coffin, gazing at Ye Fengluo inside, saying softly: "I give it to him, he will eat it."
Everyone was even more puzzled, if this woman in red said she was Yefengluo's enemy, then how could Yefengluo possibly eat her poisonous medicine?
The young man in a floral shirt gazed at the woman in red and smiled faintly: "You two are really sworn enemies?"
At this time, the red-clothed woman seemed unwilling to answer. She suddenly slapped her palm on the coffin lid, and the coffin lid flew towards Yin Wuchuang. The red-clothed woman then picked up Ye Fengluo and was about to leave. Seeing that she wanted to escape, everyone rushed forward, with Wen Meng being the first to charge forward.
The fight came suddenly, and Gong Sun Ce was somewhat unexpected. After Yin Wu broke open the coffin lid, he also rushed up in a hurry.
The young man still sat quietly in the chair, calmly watching the carnage. The woman in red wanted to take Ye Feng's body away, but it wasn't easy. Yin Wu and Meng You were also in danger.
Hualang took a sip of tea and then said to Yin Wuchuang, "Beware of her poison!"
Everyone was shocked, and only then did they remember that Ye Fengluo, the Medicine King, had died from poisoning. This red-clothed woman must be a master of poison.
Although they were careful, poison is sometimes difficult to prevent. At the moment when the red-clothed woman's physical strength was gradually weakening, she suddenly splashed out a handful of poisonous substances. Since there were too many people around Wen Meng, it was inevitable that some would be affected by the poison. Wen Meng, being careless, got poisoned.
Poisoned, Wen Meng felt his whole body go soft and weak, his hands lost their strength, and he fell to the ground.
In an instant, many people fell to the ground. The red-clothed woman gazed coldly at Hua Lang and sneered: "If you don't want these poisoned people to die, then don't stop me."
Yin Wu had no intention of making a move, but seeing Wen Meng and the others lying on the ground, he still stopped. Just as the red-clothed woman was about to leave, Hua Lang suddenly shouted: "Senior can leave if you want, but you must take out the antidote!"
"The woman in red smiled coldly: 'You won't die in a day or two. Once I'm safe, I'll send someone to deliver the antidote.'"
Can you believe what this kind of person says?
But they have to believe it, otherwise Wen Meng and others may really have no way out.
The woman in red finished speaking and flew away from the Medicine King's hut, holding Ye Fengluo's body.
The surroundings fell silent, the insect sounds disappeared, the wind stopped, and this cold night made people want to shout loudly.
Wen Meng and others who were poisoned were helped up, Hu Lang looked at Xi Men Long who was lying on the ground and shouted: "Xi Men Shixiong, you should wake up too!"
When Hua Lang shouted, everyone was shocked, and they all cast their eyes on Ximen Long. Ximen Long remained motionless, as if dead. But everyone stared at him like that, and before long, Ximen Long's hand trembled slightly, then slowly opened his eyes. He touched his neck, looking surprised and confused, asking: "What happened here? What's going on?"
Looking at Simen Long's appearance, Hualang was like watching a clown perform.
"Ximen Shixiong, why pretend again? Isn't that red-clothed woman hiding in your room?"
Ximen Long was startled, and then somewhat angrily said: "What do you mean by this, what is hidden in my room?"
Hualang smiled faintly: "Although the Medicine King's hut is not heavily guarded, it's not easy for one person to hide without being discovered. That red-clothed woman obviously didn't come suddenly, she had been here for a long time and was hiding in your room."
Ximen Long sneered and said, "If I had hidden the woman in red, how could she have knocked me unconscious?"
"Of course it's to clear your name!"
"You...!" Xi Men Long was momentarily flustered, and after a long pause, he continued to say: "You have no evidence, so don't even think about framing me!"
Hualang shook his head: "I didn't frame you, and I have evidence. Let's not mention that Yin has been keeping an eye on you all along, which is a witness. As for your room now, there might still be the faint scent of that woman."
Everyone cast their eyes on Ximen Long, with contempt in their gazes.
