Chapter 594: A Survival Guide for Women in the Old Republic of China (133)
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore." Su Xiangran said casually.
In fact, she knew very well that this mission was extremely dangerous. If she was not careful, she might end up in an irretrievable situation.
However, in order to ensure her brother Su Yanqing's safe arrival at the rear, she had no choice but to take the risk and move forward.
Song Chengjing understood Su Xiangran, and he knew that no matter how he persuaded her, he could not change her decision.
After all, after Su Yanqing got off the car, he really needed someone to stay in the car to distract the enemy.
Despite this, neither Su Yanqing nor Song Chengjing wanted Su Xiangran to take such a risk.
Because in their hearts, they would rather be in danger themselves than see her get hurt in the slightest.
As time passed, Song Chengjing became more and more uneasy.
He tried many times to persuade Su Xiangran to give up this dangerous plan, but he swallowed the words back every time they came to his lips.
In the end, he secretly made up his mind: no matter what, he must ensure Su Xiangran's safety during the evacuation.
Even if he faced greater risks, he was not afraid. As long as he could protect her, everything would be worth it.
In such a worried situation, Song Chengjing unknowingly talked about where he had lived in the past few years while chatting with Su Xiangran.
Everything he did in his daily life was revealed completely. Of course, this was only because the other party was Su Xiangran. It was impossible for anyone else to let Song Chengjing reveal all his secrets.
The scenery outside the car window kept receding and the sky gradually darkened.
During this period, people from the private room next door also came over several times, and each time they saw Su Xiangran and the country man named "Zhou Jing" taking care of Su Yanqing together.
Their young commander Cao Shixun, who had said he was going to help, was actually sleeping soundly there. He was even heard snoring a few times. The expressions on those people's faces were inevitably indescribable.
Around nine o'clock in the evening, Su Xiangran told several people in the next private room that they also needed to rest and asked them not to disturb them.
Those people looked at "Zhou Jing" with difficulty, as if they wanted to ask him when he would leave the private room.
"I'm in the first two carriages. Call me if you need anything." Zhou Jing stood up and walked out under the gazes of these people.
This time, those people returned to their private rooms obediently.
An hour later, "Zhou Jing" and his companions sneaked back to Su Xiangran's sleeper compartment as quietly as a cat.
"To be on the safe side, let's give the neighbors some medicine!" Su Xiangran said suddenly after thinking for a while.
Su Yanqing heard this and instantly thought: Huh? This sister is too cruel! She always uses medicine! However, her medicine is quite practical.
Seeing that no one was talking, Su Xiangran frowned and said, "It's just a little bit of drug, not poison, what are you afraid of!"
After saying that, he took out a thumb-sized conical incense tower from his suitcase.
The incense tower probably looks like this
At this time, there were still two train stations away from the station where they were going to get off.
"This incense takes effect quickly, but the effect doesn't last long." Su Xiangran said to the others while holding the incense tower, "But the person who is drugged by this incense won't wake up before the time is up. The most important thing is that there are no sequelae. The person has no idea that they have been drugged."
Song Chengjing and Su Yanqing seemed very calm. After all, they already knew that Su Xiangran liked to study some strange things.
However, the companion who came with them had shining eyes and stared straight at the incense tower in Su Xiangran's hand, his face full of excitement.
"This thing is really amazing! It is an excellent weapon for guerrilla warfare!" He could not hide his inner excitement and spoke to Su Xiangran in a low voice, as if he had seen the scene of his great success on the battlefield, "If we use it to attack the artillery tower,
Let our insider quietly light up this incense tower, and the enemy will definitely be caught off guard! In this way, won’t it be easy to succeed every time?"
Then, the man couldn't wait to ask: "Miss Su, is this incense tower difficult to make? Are the required materials easy to obtain?"
Su Xiangran thought for a moment and then replied, "Well... it's not too difficult to make. The ingredients used are basically some common herbs, which should be available at any Chinese medicine store."
In fact, she did not tell the other party the whole truth.
You should know that the recipe of this incense contains a special plant that does not originally exist in this world.
It was just that while she was studying abroad, she accidentally discovered a similar weed, and after many experiments, it was proved that it could replace that special plant to some extent.
Moreover, she deliberately left some seeds and brought them back to the country when she returned.
After passing another stop, Su Xiangran thought she could go next door to light incense, but who would go?
The companion volunteered, "I'll go, I'll go! It's just a small matter like this, I'll go."
As he said this, he picked up the incense tower and walked to the next room.
"Would you like to buy some wine?" The man opened the door of the other party's private room with a basket.
The people inside the door were startled by the sudden appearance of this person. When they saw that it was a countryman wearing a towel on his head, they all said in disgust: "Get lost!"
One of them said, "You are selling wine! What kind of wine do you have?"
The man put the basket in his hand down and started to take out the wine bottles. In the process, he used the basket as a cover to put the lit incense under a lower bunk.
After putting the incense on, he "wiped" the sweat off his face with the towel wrapped around his head, but in fact he was covering his mouth and nose with a half-wet towel.
The person who asked him to get the wine snatched it from his hand, kicked him out of the private room without paying and quickly closed the door.
The man pretended to be unconvinced and slammed the door of the private room a few times, and finally left here deliberately cursing.
