The mist appeared silently, so even Ye Guichen didn’t notice it.
Just as Ye Guichen was preparing to observe the Sakura Falling on the water from a distance, he suddenly heard a thumping sound.
He turned his head and saw that Yuan Shao and the others had all fainted.
Hmm?
Ye Guichen frowned, imdiately understanding what had happened.
Poison gas?
When did so much poison gas appear around them?
Moreover, this poison gas seed different from ordinary poison gas, it contained so sort of toxin.
The dicine bag given by Zhu You could repel so ordinary poison gas, but it was clearly ineffective against this seemingly artificially formulated poison gas.
His ears twitched, and Ye Guichen quickly detected a few people hiding in two trees not far away.
They were staring at him with predatory eyes.
With just a little hesitation, Ye Guichen closed his eyes and quickly fell to the ground.
Although the poison gas had no effect on him, pretending to pass out might reveal what the opponents had in mind.
"Down, haha, they’re all down!"
Seeing Ye Guichen also faint, the people in the trees imdiately jumped down.
Two n and two won.
The two n dressed casually, while the two won wore peculiar outfits, resembling those of ethnic minorities.
One of the won appeared to be slightly older, looking around forty years old, with a cloth tied around her head.
She quickly approached Ye Guichen and the others, kicking Yuan Shao: "Hmph, didn’t expect them to find this place, they do have so skills."
"Yes, Sister Hua, luckily you foresaw this and ca to check upon hearing the commotion, otherwise these guys would have taken advantage," a handso man complinted with a flattering expression.
Sister Hua gave him a look: "The entire Sakura Falling is on alert now, it’s better to be cautious. You know that Young Master An is determined to beco the Oiran, and we can’t let any external problems arise besides the internal issues of Sakura Falling. Otherwise, it would make things much more complicated."
"Yes, yes, Sister Hua, you are right." The others quickly nodded, seemingly very afraid of Sister Hua.
However, from their behavior, it seed they hadn’t been there long and didn’t see the giant python bringing Ye Guichen and the others here.
"Quick, tie them up, take them away, we’ll talk when they wake up later." Sister Hua ordered again.
The few people hurriedly went forward and tied up Ye Guichen and the others.
While tying up Shui Liao, the handso man muttered, "Damn, this big guy’s muscles are so solid."
"Shut up and hurry." Sister Hua lowered her voice, "Let’s get back quickly. I need to report to Young Master An, and you lock them up. Don’t let them escape."
As she spoke, Sister Hua reached the lakeside.
Two wooden boats were docked at the shore.
Each boat could only hold four or five people.
After so struggle, they loaded Ye Guichen and the others onto the two boats, then swiftly rowed towards the Sakura Falling on the water.
Ye Guichen slightly squinted his eyes to observe the surroundings, not acting rashly.
Soon, the boat reached the middle of the water.
Only then did Ye Guichen see the true appearance of Sakura Falling.
It was indeed a water village, with the atmosphere of Jiangnan’s water towns.
However, the entire Sakura Falling was illuminated with a fluorescent light, emitting a ghostly blue glow, making the village seem eerie and giving a sinister feeling.
After so commotion, Ye Guichen and the others were thrown into a room resembling a woodshed.
Except for the woman nad Sister Hua, the others guarded the door, chatting.
"Hey Little Hua, if our Young Master An marries your Holy Daughter, we’ll be family." As soon as Sister Hua left, the other two n began to get cheeky, sitting beside a young girl and starting their flirtation.
The girl nad Little Hua snorted: "So what? Hmph, what does Young Master An marrying the Holy Daughter have to do with ?"
"Little Hua, you don’t get it!" It seed to be the more handso man speaking: "By then, not only will we be family, but if you follow , I can openly take you out of here to see the outside world."
"The outside world?" Little Hua seed a bit curious but still muttered, "What’s so good about the outside world? I’ve lived here with my sister since I was little, I’m used to it."
"Little Hua, the outside world is much more fun than this place." The other man also smiled deceitfully, his words filled with seduction, "Outside, there are not only all kinds of delicious foods but also many fun things that will make you want to stay forever."
His words seed to have swayed the girl nad Little Hua.
Ye Guichen only listened for a while and roughly understood the situation.
The two n seed to have co to Sakura Falling with An Shengtian and did not belong to Sakura Falling, while the girl nad Little Hua was born and raised in Sakura Falling and was sisters with the older woman, Sister Hua.
However, from their words, it seed Sister Hua had a good relationship with An Shengtian and was already bought by him, now working for him.
"It appears An Shengtian is indeed capable," Ye Guichen thought to himself.
Bringing his people over and managing to win over so people in Sakura Falling within just a few days was indeed sothing few could achieve.
"I wonder how Ugly Fox and Long Tianci are doing," Ye Guichen sat up and looked outside through the gap in the door.
Everything was made of wood, with many gaps.
According to the initial agreent with Ugly Fox, he would heal her face, and in return, she would steal the Seven-colored Lotus Jade for him.
The agreed ti was almost up, but Ugly Fox had not made any move, likely encountering so troubles.
The dawn was approaching, a ti when people slept most deeply. There weren’t many people active outside in Sakura Falling.
Sakura Falling’s own concocted poison gas was indeed potent, even Shui Liao was knocked out.
Ye Guichen glanced at the unconscious Yuan Shao and the others, not in a hurry to wake them up.
Right now, if he could obtain the Seven-colored Lotus Jade without force, that would be best. Fewer killings would be preferable unless absolutely necessary.
Besides, the place seed rather large, and Ye Guichen didn’t know where the Seven-colored Lotus Jade was or the current situation in Sakura Falling.
Making a move without understanding the circumstances might lead to trouble.
Almost at the sa ti, Sister Hua arrived in front of a relatively luxurious house.
The entire water village of Sakura Falling consisted of wooden buildings, but the central building seed like a small villa, not only antique but also guarded by two skilled individuals.
Although they were a bit sleepy, they held long spears, using them to prop themselves up, barely staying awake.
Inside the wooden villa, lights were bright, and shadows moved, indicating activity within.
