I brought five birds to eat and drink with my girlfriends in ancient times

Chapter 221 Is this the Purple Flame Country?

Seeing that the jar of wine and the pot of meat were almost finished, it was nothing serious. Usually in such situations, the poison would be fatal, so it is impossible to drink or eat them all and be fine.

The group of people could no longer control themselves and started scrambling for the drink. They were so hungry and greedy that they couldn't stop drinking once they started. It was a bit cold in this late autumn night.

Alcohol can warm the body, especially strong liquor which can numb the nerves. This medicine is colorless and tasteless, it can only control and numb the mind, it will not cause blood to flow, so everyone thinks it is non-toxic.

They enjoyed the food and drinks very much, and had a rare chance to relax. Anyway, the people from Zi Yan Country were all drunk, so when they woke up tomorrow, what difference would it make if they left first?

The distance covered that day was dozens of miles. If they were given a day, they could catch up in a quarter of an hour or two using their light skills.

next day

A group of people woke up, confused, why did they gather together? The secret guards couldn't all gather together, and there were cups and plates all over the floor?

What on earth happened last night? How come they couldn't remember what they were supposed to do before they gathered?

No! The most vigilant leader remembered everything that happened last night. Fortunately, he put the important matter first and only drank a few sips of wine. He absolutely could not admit that he was drunk after one glass.

He clearly remembered everything that happened last night. If the alcohol wasn't too strong, then he must have been possessed. But looking at his brothers, they didn't seem to be poisoned. They were all fine. Could they have just gotten drunk?

At this time, two people suddenly vomited. After vomiting, they became limp, could not walk steadily, and spoke incoherently, like fools.

"Chief, we've been tricked. We have to quickly capture the people and kill the unimportant ones. Just keep the woman alive!"

After one of the dragon guards regained consciousness, he slapped his head and said something, but just as he finished speaking, blood started flowing from all his orifices, and then he exploded and died.

The leader was so frightened that his scalp went numb and his legs couldn't stop shaking. What kind of poison was this that was so horrible?

He quickly jumped out of the window into the room where the eldest princess lived, but there was no sign of the eldest princess. Even the servants and horses had disappeared without a trace.

When the emperor learned that he had lost his man again, he was so angry that he smashed everything in the imperial study. The leader of the Dragon Guards stood firm and endured the cups, plates, and inkstones that were smashed on his body and head.

Even though his face was covered in blood, he didn't dare say a word. A little bleeding didn't matter as long as he was still alive.

The leader should have been very happy to have saved his life from the furious old emperor, but he did not dare to laugh or get angry for a long time.

The shadow of his subordinates dying in anger and exploding kept echoing in his mind. Since anger can cause explosions, who knows if laughter can?

This not only did not reduce his prestige among the Dragon Guards, but he even earned the title of the Cold-Faced King of Hell.

If it weren't for the fact that his old lover couldn't stand the loneliness and had an affair, he would probably have lived like this for the rest of his life.

It was not until he was so furious that he almost beat his mistress to death that she realized that he was actually angry. She screamed in fear and touched her face to see if it would explode.

The other party was not beaten to death, but was frightened by this man's strange behavior and fled. This man is either a madman or a freak. Anyone who doesn't run away now is a fool.

The leader held his face for a long time but did not explode. For the first time ever, he hugged his cheating lover and laughed and jumped. The lover was so scared that he screamed and ran away. This person must have been possessed by an evil spirit. If she didn't run away, was she waiting to die?

After Shangguan Yue saw that the emperor's secret guards were drunk that night, she sent someone to find the shopkeeper to settle the bill and said that they would set off soon.

These shopkeepers are all shrewd people. Those who rush on the road in the middle of the night are either eloping or causing trouble and are being hunted. Anyway, the money has been collected, so the sooner you leave, the better off you will be. Don't meddle in other people's business.

Shangguan Yue gathered everyone together, got on the carriage and traveled overnight. The shopkeeper took a look at the carriage going away, weighed the heavy rewards in his hand, and couldn't stop smiling.

These nobles are dressed in expensive clothes and spend lavishly. They are not ordinary people. It would be nice if more of them could come.

Due to the late night journey, Zeng Qian'er felt a little unwell, so Zhou Huaizhi protected Zeng Qian'er and took her in a carriage.

Shangguan Yue didn't want to be a third wheel, so she took one by herself. Seeing this, Xiao Lan also stopped riding and wanted to sit with Shangguan Yue.

Shangguan Yue thought this was a good idea. Xiao Lan had her own Purple Flame Feather, so she didn't have to worry about scaring others, nor did she have to explain the bizarre scene of using the Purple Flame Feather to enter the Purple Flame Kingdom.

He roughly circled the number of people and the area in his mind, reached into the mobile space from his sleeve, took out the Purple Flame Feather, and chanted a spell. As soon as he finished the spell, the running carriage disappeared instantly.

Zhou Huaizhi was worried that the bumpy road would make Qian'er feel even more uncomfortable, so he hugged her and let her lean on his arms to prevent the road from being too bumpy and making her uncomfortable.

Zeng Qian'er was feeling groggy because she had just started having morning sickness. The road was bumpy and she was vomiting so much that she was dizzy and wanted to lean on anyone she saw.

Zhou Huaizhi became her humanoid puppet and could not leave for a moment, so he had no idea what was going on outside, and he didn't know whether those who were following him had been eliminated.

Suddenly there was a violent jolt and he could not see anything at all. He immediately hugged Qian'er tightly to prevent her from falling.

The shaking stopped in the instant my eyes opened and closed, and the vehicle became very stable. It was very quiet all around, and not even the sound of horses galloping could be heard.

He slowly opened his eyes, and the scene in front of him stunned him. It was as bright as day here. No, it was basically daytime here. Judging from the height of the sun, it was around the end of the Chen hour.

The place where the carriage was parked should be in a yard. The environment was quiet, with the fragrance of flowers and a fresh atmosphere that made people feel very comfortable.

Zhou Huaizhi felt that everything before his eyes was like an illusion, so unreal. He did not react until Shangguan Yue and Prince Lanshen got off the carriage in front and nodded at him.

Feeling the sudden tranquility, Zeng Qian'er in his arms whimpered and climbed up, struggled out of his arms, and threw herself towards Shangguan Yue, scaring Zhou Huaizhi so much that he pulled her back.

I was worried that I might have broken it, so I checked my whole body from head to toe.

"How can you be so careless? You are now a double-bodied person, so remember to be careful, walk slowly, and don't get too excited. It's not like you won't see the little... Saint Lord anymore, so why are you so careless... Will you be like this if you don't see me for a day in the future?"

"Hey, you're such a grown-up, you're already in your forties and you're still jealous of a kid? You're even more childish than Xiaoyue, oh! No, Xiaoyue is the empress now! I have to respectfully address her as the Holy Lord, I can't be disrespectful.

Where are we now? Although I was in a daze, I remembered that it was already midnight when I got on the carriage. How come it was already daybreak in the blink of an eye?

No, it's almost noon, right? Are we in another country now? Could this be the Purple Flame Country?"

Zeng Qian'er opened her round, almond-shaped eyes wide and said to Shangguan Yue who was approaching her.
