Chapter 262 Medication
Behind Chu Feng, the Sixth Miss and the wet nurse secretly tossed a small object at him.
Looking at the thing emitting a faint smoke, Li Xiaonuan instinctively covered her mouth and nose with her sleeve.
After throwing away their things, the two silently closed the door and went back inside. Because Li Xiaonuan was facing them directly, she was able to see their little actions clearly.
The little thing rolled and rolled, finally stopping at Chu Feng's feet. Li Xiaonuan looked closely and realized it was a tightly bound clump of grass.
At this moment, a faint purple mist was rising slowly from the grass ball.
A moment later, a gust of wind blew by, carrying the smoke toward Li Xiaonuan.
It was at this very moment that the last spark of the tinderbox in Li Xiaonuan's hand went out.
Frustrated, Li Xiaonuan threw away the tinderbox and stared at Chu Feng without saying a word. She felt suffocated and didn't know what to do.
Chu Feng had already sensed something was amiss when Li Xiaonuan covered half her face with the arm holding the tinderbox. However, he hadn't expected that Li Xiaonuan was guarding against something right at his feet.
When Chu Feng saw Li Xiaonuan throw away the tinderbox, he smiled smugly.
Although Chu Feng's men had suffered heavy losses at the hands of the two opposing sides, he could still escape unscathed if he captured Li Xiaonuan.
After laughing, Chu Feng stepped forward, wanting to finish the battle quickly. He had already seen a large group of people heading this way.
However, Chu Feng's steps became increasingly heavy. By the time he took his seventh step, he could no longer lift his foot.
What happened? Chu Feng opened his mouth to speak.
Unfortunately, his lips seemed to be locked, and he couldn't open them.
Seeing Chu Feng's unusual behavior, Li Xiaonuan couldn't help but laugh. Her laughter broke her breath-holding technique. She had already taken several deep breaths in that short time.
"I was suffocating." Once she could breathe easily, Li Xiaonuan finally said.
Those who were fighting just moments ago have stopped. The armored side has been completely wiped out.
"Miss Li, what happened here?" A guard from the villa came over and asked, standing guard beside Li Xiaonuan.
Li Xiaonuan pointed at Chu Feng and said with a smile, "I don't know what happened to that person, it seems like he suddenly stopped moving and talking."
No sooner had Li Xiaonuan finished speaking than the main door creaked open. The Sixth Miss, like a little butterfly, rushed to Li Xiaonuan's side, exclaiming, "Sister Xiaonuan, what do you think of my medicine?"
Li Xiaonuan gave the little girl a thumbs up and said, "That's great! But why are we all okay?"
"You're so silly, of course you took the antidote beforehand." The little girl said, then moved to Chu Feng's side and kicked his shin.
Li Xiaonuan was afraid that Chu Feng was playing a trick, so she quickly stepped forward and pulled her back.
The wet nurse was also vigilant; she pulled the little girl aside and said things like not to take unnecessary risks.
Chu Feng was glaring fiercely at Li Xiaonuan and the others, but he couldn't bring himself to say anything. Otherwise, he really would have cursed them out.
At this moment, the other guards from the villa who had been fighting with Chu Feng's men at the side gate also walked into Li Xiaonuan's courtyard.
Xiao Gang, pulling Su Shi and Li Die along, walked up to Li Xiaonuan with a grin and said boastfully, "Sister, do you think I did well today? I not only used two grenades to blow up those bad guys, but I also drugged them all."
Seeing that the courtyard was full of her own people, Li Xiaonuan finally felt relieved and put the grenades in her hand and at her waist on the ground.
"It was so heavy! Xiaogang, you did a great job. But, did you set that mine? Where did you set it? I didn't see you just now," Li Xiaonuan asked, still a little scared.
Xiao Gang scratched his head sheepishly and said, "I had the security guard carry me. We hid very well, so others couldn't easily spot us."
Miss Liu circled around Xiao Gang for a while, then suddenly asked, "You're using Soul-Dispersing Incense, aren't you? I didn't know you could concoct such a medicine. By the way, why are you so enthusiastic about these unorthodox methods?"
Hearing this, Xiao Gang chuckled awkwardly and replied, "I was afraid of being bullied before. So I thought...thought..."
"What are you thinking about? Are you thinking about getting revenge on those people no matter what?" the little girl said, pouting. She added a final "you're spineless."
While the two children were talking, the guards had already cleaned up all the corpses and other debris in the yard.
To be honest, seeing such a scene again still terrified Li Xiaonuan. Especially seeing so many people die in front of her.
She glanced at Madam Su and Father Li and noticed that Madam Su was trembling. However, Father Li was holding her hand the whole time, which was why she wasn't crying.
Father Li, with his dark face and furrowed brows, was telling Li Xiaonuan about his fear.
Perhaps, Father Li was also afraid. At least, his taut back betrayed his tension.
But Xiao Gang, that brat, acted like nothing had happened and was still arguing with Miss Liu.
“Miss Li, the courtyard has been thoroughly checked and reorganized, there is no longer any danger. You can all go back and rest without worry. But what do you plan to do with this person, Miss Li?” After instructing his subordinates to count the number of people and make proper arrangements, the head of the guards came to ask Li Xiaonuan for instructions.
There was no other way; Prince Jing had issued a secret order. That order was that all the guards in the manor, without a master, would obey Li Xiaonuan's commands.
Li Xiaonuan looked at Chu Feng, whose eyes were burning with increasing anger, and said, "Take him to your master. Your master will have his own ideas on how to deal with such a person."
Li Xiaonuan didn't believe that she could simply order those people to do whatever she asked them to do. They always needed Prince Jing's approval.
The guard leader thought that Li Xiaonuan was indeed sensible, so he ordered his men to take Chu Feng away.
"You're taking him away already? That's not fun at all. There's more fun to come with this medicine. In the beginning, he can't talk or move, but later on, he won't be able to control himself and will run and jump around." The little girl pouted unhappily.
Just as the little girl was speaking, Chu Feng's finger twitched almost imperceptibly.
"Sis, how about we leave this bad guy here to watch the show for a while?" Xiao Gang said to Li Xiaonuan, his back to Chu Feng.
"Nonsense!" Li Xiaonuan scolded Xiaogang. "Are you out of your mind? Don't forget, this person is dangerous. It's better to have someone take him away as soon as possible for insurance purposes."
“Yes, Xiaogang, listen to your sister,” Su Shi said from the side.
Suddenly, Su's expression changed. She shouted at Xiaogang, "Xiaogang, run! Hurry!"
