Chapter 186: Tang Clan's Yin
Chapter 186: Tang Clan's Yin
"How about it?"
Tao Tao noticed that Tang Wenlong's expression was not right and knew that something was wrong.
Tang Wenlong's face was solemn as he nodded and said, "He didn't lie to me. There are indeed signs of poisoning on my chest."
Shi Cheng laughed from the opposite side, "Haha, at least I got someone to take the blame for me, so it's not a loss at all."
Ma Long fell from the tree, his face sinister as he said, "Hand over the antidote!"
Shi Cheng shrugged and said, "I do have the antidote, but why should I give it to you?"
Tao Tao stepped forward and said seriously, "This round is a draw. Hand over the antidote and I'll give it to you. How about that?"
Shi Cheng looked at Tao Tao and said, "That sounds like a good suggestion..."
"Wait, Taozi!" Tang Wenlong grabbed Tao Tao's arm and said hurriedly, "No, our mission is to kill him. How can we give him the antidote?"
Tao Tao turned around and said, "But if we don't do this, you will die with me."
Tang Wenlong said: "I am from the Tang Sect. Even if I die, I am inferior to others in skills, but the mission cannot fail!"
Tao Tao shook off Tang Wenlong's hand and said calmly, "Perhaps the mission is very important, but to me, it is not as important as the lives of my companions."
Ma Long said coldly, "We still have another option. Kill him and search his body for the antidote!"
When Shi Cheng heard this, he took out a small box from his arms and held it in his hand, and said with a smile: "You can try and see whether you can kill me faster or I can destroy the antidote faster."
"Okay, stop talking!"
Tao Tao interrupted the two of them and took the initiative to walk out to face Shi Cheng, and also took out a small medicine bottle from her arms.
"Here's the antidote. Let's throw it to each other at the same time, and no one is allowed to cheat. How do you do that?"
"That's a good suggestion." Shi Cheng nodded first, then said, "But..."
"Do you have any other doubts?" Tao Tao asked.
Shi Cheng said: "How do I know that the bottle in yours is the antidote? What if it is poison?"
Upon hearing this, Tao Tao opened the bottle, poured out a pill and put it into his mouth.
"That's fine, isn't it? But you reminded me that I can't trust your antidote either."
Shi Cheng watched Tao Tao swallow the pill without saying anything. He also opened the small box, took out a capsule and put it in his mouth.
Ma Long said: "Is this your antidote?"
Shi Cheng glanced at Ma Long and said calmly, "What era is this? You're still refining pills. Aren't my capsules more convenient than yours?"
"Uh..." Ma Long choked and was speechless.
Both of them took the antidote, but did not throw it to each other immediately. Instead, they observed each other.
We will have to wait and see whether it is an antidote or poison.
As for the poison in his body, he wouldn't die in a short time anyway, so as an assassin, he still had some patience.
Of course, they didn't wait too long, probably less than a minute. Seeing that the other party was fine, they nodded to each other and threw the antidote to each other at the same time.
After getting the antidote, Shi Cheng immediately poured out the pill and swallowed it.
After Tao Tao took it, she also took it out and stuffed it into Tang Wenlong's mouth.
To be honest, after taking the antidote, Tang Wenlong still felt a little complicated.
I felt touched, relieved that I didn't have to die, and guilty that the mission might have failed because of him.
I looked at my chest and found that the poison was indeed slowly dissipating.
Tang Wenlong sighed: "All our efforts before were wasted. Now that we are on guard, it won't be easy for us to trick that guy again."
"That's not necessarily true." Tao Tao said.
Tang Wenlong and Ma Long were stunned and didn't understand what it meant. Just as they were about to ask, they heard an angry shout from the other side.
"Little girl, how dare you lie to me!"
Shi Cheng crushed the bottle with one hand, his face gloomy, and the murderous aura on his body was not concealed at all.
Tao Tao grinned: "What you said is not a lie."
Can what happens between assassins be called cheating?
Shi Cheng suppressed his anger and asked, "What kind of medicine did you give me?"
Tao Tao said, "Liuwei Dihuang Wan treats kidney deficiency. It doesn't contain sugar and is suitable for both men and women. It's very beneficial to the body."
"Fuck your grandma!"
Shi Cheng was furious and rushed towards Tao Tao with the Emei Spear raised. He was determined to kill this dishonest little girl.
Seeing this, Tang Wenlong and Ma Long immediately came over to block Tao Tao, ready to fight to the death with her.
After all, when a person is about to die, who knows how crazy the other party will be? If the boat capsizes in the end, it would be too unfair.
However, Tao Tao was very calm and just stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers.
Immediately, Shi Cheng, who was rushing over, fell to the ground, his whole body convulsing.
"Sorry, time is up."
Tao Tao didn't go over, just stood there and watched.
"Antid... medicine, give me... the antidote..."
Shi Cheng covered his stomach, his eyes bloodshot, and reached out to grab Tao Tao.
He never thought that he would fall into this place and fall into the hands of a little girl.
As an assassin, he should carry either poison or antidote. How could he carry Liuwei Dihuang Pills?
Is this really a legitimate assassin?!
Shi Cheng couldn't understand, how could it be Liuwei Dihuang Wan, how could it be Liuwei Dihuang Wan!
Before his death, Shi Cheng still hadn't figured out this problem.
But if this matter were to get out, he would definitely become a laughing stock in the assassin world.
As an assassin, I was deceived by someone using Liuwei Dihuang Pills. This is such a shame.
Only after Shi Cheng stopped breathing and it was confirmed that he had died of the poison did Tang Wenlong and the others breathe a sigh of relief.
Then, the same question popped up in their minds.
Tang Wenlong asked, "Tao Tao, was the Liuwei Dihuang Pill you gave him really that?"
Tao Tao nodded: "Yes."
Ma Long was stunned and asked in confusion: "No, why would you, a girl, carry this kind of medicine with you?"
"Uh..." Tao Tao spread her hands, "Actually, I took the wrong one. That was my dad's medicine. I originally wanted to take the chocolate chips."
"Ah?" Tang Wenlong and the others became even more confused.
Afterwards, Tao Tao explained to the two that she usually likes to eat snacks, but the elders in her family are rather conservative and think that eating snacks is not good.
So, Tao Tao learned to hide snacks since she was a child. She hid snacks in toilet lids, pillows, and empty makeup boxes at home.
Of course, there is one place that is the safest, and that is the bottles and jars in her mother's room.
Those bottles and jars contained various poisons and antidotes made by her mother. Her father didn't dare to touch them or rummage through them.
So, she would often hide some snacks, such as candy and chocolate, in those bottles and jars.
This time was the same. She had hidden chocolate beans in the bottle, but her mother found out and threw it away, filling it with kidney-tonifying pills specially prepared for her father.
Then she didn't know and just took it. But after arriving in Beijing, she checked and found something wrong. The chocolate beans had been swapped.
All in all, this is a funny comedy, but Shi Cheng is the only tragic character in this comedy.
I can only say that the old antiques really cannot understand what tricks the younger generation can come up with.
If you can't keep up with the times, sometimes you will be made fun of by the times.
After hearing this, Tang Wenlong and Ma Long didn't know what to say. They could only give Tao Tao a thumbs up.
As for Tao Tao's deception of Shi Cheng, the two of them didn't take it to heart at all.
How can what the Tang Clan do be called cheating?
