Chapter 230: Dosing the Water
.Upon seeing his daughter-in-law, Zong Yu quickened his pace considerably."Back, are you tired from work today" Fang Jinshu handed Zongyu a clean sweat cloth to wipe his face.The injured hand was deli..."Sister-in-law, what is this" Zongbei asked curiously.
He also wanted to reach out and smell it, but Fang Jinshu hurriedly stopped him.
“Don't smell that, you little fool!”
She quickly took the medicine bag back.
"Let's find those bandits' water sources and pour this in. You'll see what happens later."
"Well, what if they don't have a water source" Zong Bai scratched his head.
Fang Jinshu thought for a moment, her young nephew's concerns made sense. She pointed at Zongyu's waist pouch.
"Give me this. Now water resources are precious. If we can't find their source, then we'll have to come up with a plan and personally deliver some water to them!"
Zong Yu immediately understood Fang Jinxiu's plan, frowned, and pressed down on her hand as she reached for the water bag.
"No, you can't go into danger."
Zong Bai only realized it afterward, "What do you mean Sister-in-law is going to give them this bag of water"
"The row is a row, but how do we make them discover this bag of water"
Fang Jinxiu glanced at the two brothers, “Your older brother definitely isn't suitable. He looks big and burly; when he goes, people might think he's here to challenge them.”
Only the two of us can go.
Zong Bai also understood Fang Jinxiu's meaning at this point, and he shouted the same thing as his older brother.
"This can't be right, sister-in-law you can't go, I'll go instead."
Passing by those bandits' doorstep with a bag of water on my back, there's no way they'd only take the water. They'd definitely grab me too.
Your sister-in-law is a woman, how could she possibly come into direct contact with that group of animals.
"Don't refuse so quickly, you two. I planned this for a reason."
"Actually, I'm the most suitable person to go. Those bandits must have captured more than just Dr. Qin's daughter. Surely all the women are kept in one place. If I get captured, wouldn't it save us the trouble of searching for them"
Just as Fang Jinshu's words fell, the two brothers stood up together and shouted, "No!"
She helplessly rubbed her forehead.
"I'd rather spend more time finding the whereabouts of Dr. Qin and his family." Zong Bai said resolutely.
Zongyu clenched his fist directly, cracking his bones with a creak, his eyes blazing with fury.
"Just knock them all out, you don't have to risk it."
Fang Jinxiu was helpless. Well, no matter how brilliant her plan was, she couldn't carry it out without the agreement of these two men.
"Forget it, I'll just go find the water source they drink from."
It is best to resolve these bandits without bloodshed.
Finally, the three of them discovered dozens of large water jars in Zhangjia's backyard. When they opened one, it was full of clear water inside.
Most of the wells in town have dried up. This water must be what those bandits scoured from every well to collect.
Their actions have completely cut off the escape route for everyone in town. There are over a hundred households in this town, and not every single one managed to flee!
These heartless bandits don't even leave a drop of water for the other people in town.
"What a shame!"
Fang Jinshi told Zong Bo to speak more quietly.
As soon as Zong Bai thought of his sister-in-law using medicine in this clear water, he couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you just put medicine in those two large water tanks at the front Leave the rest of the tanks without any powder. This way, the water can still be used by people in town for a while."
Fang Jinxiu tapped her younger brother's head, "I planned it that way all along."
Even if Zong Bai was willing to use so much water to dilute the wolf medicine, she wouldn't be willing to use her own medicine powder. Such a small bag wouldn't be enough to mix with so much water.
With Zong Yu's help, Fang Jinxiu's medicinal powder was quietly poured into the two water tanks at the front and mixed evenly.
Three people hid in the dark and secretly observed. After a while, they saw someone come to fetch water for cooking.
Unknowingly, more than half a day has passed, and the sun is about to set.
Originally, I planned to go home early, but it seems like I'll have to worry my mother and Yu Lian for a while longer.
After about two pots of tea, the people guarding the water tank all collapsed.
"No, no it's not good."
Some people couldn't even finish their words, and they felt like their eyelids were weighed down by a thousand pounds. The next second, they fainted completely.He didn't need to lower himself to anyone."You left the person at home, couldn't you send someone to inform the palace""To forcibly keep someone against their will, Mr. Gu, what kind of hospitality is...
