Wu Ye said, "Since they have retreated, will they be frightened by Master Lu's power and not dare to come again?"
The others agreed, "They have suffered a great loss this time. What Wu Ye said makes sense."
Lu Fei said, "Since we don't know them well, if the Sect of Flame is strong enough, they won't be afraid of a small stockade like us, let alone me. Even if I'm a master, they will still send masters to deal with me. In my opinion, although we've caused them heavy casualties this time, Lan Zhen hasn't tasted our true strength. He will most likely attack us again. Moreover, if we are prepared to defend against his attack, we won't be at a disadvantage."
A man who looked similar to Li Xing said, "That's right. Whether the enemy comes or not, we will pretend that they come. But if they really come, I am afraid they will not come with so few people."
Lu Fei said, "This time they were defeated because they underestimated my strength. Obviously, the enemy did not know my methods, so they retreated first to think of a plan. When they come up with a plan, it will be time to attack."
Lu Fei said, "Of course we are not afraid. But there are so many women and children in the stockade. They can't die in vain."
Wu Ye said, "At the same time, we have to guard against the enemy sending masters to sneak into the stockade." Lu Fei said, "I will keep watch at night. No matter how strong the enemy's masters are, they can't escape my surveillance. This time we are not well prepared. Later on, we will send people to widen the moat in front of the stockade. Then we will lead the water from the lake to the front. This will make it more difficult for the enemy to attack." He paused and said, "I wonder if the Great Lake Stockade has masters of poison?"
Li Xing said, "My father knows how to use poison. Although he is not a master, he knows a lot of poisons."
Lu Fei said, "The enemy knows how to use poison, so do we. From now on, all the arrows and blades will be coated with poison. Prepare the poisonous water. We will make some sprays and then build a few catapults."
"Catapults?" Lu Fei saw that most of the people in the hall had doubtful expressions. He knew that these people had never seen or even heard of a catapult before. He immediately explained the principle of a catapult and then said, "Immediately have people cut down wood to make it, then mine the stones and prepare them." Hearing that, everyone exclaimed in amazement, thinking to themselves that it was all thanks to Young Master Lu. With such powerful weapons, the enemy would definitely suffer a defeat no matter what.
Li Xing passed down his orders, and everyone left one by one. All of a sudden, someone came in and reported, "Clan Head, the person who followed Young Master Lu over today has been unconscious. It doesn't seem like he was poisoned by the Soul Enchanting Incense."
Li Xing immediately stood up and said, "Let's go and take a look. Have you informed the old patriarch?"
That person said, "The old patriarch has already gone there."
Lu Fei also followed and asked Li Yun, "The old patriarch is your grandfather?"
Li Yun nodded and said, "My grandfather knows a lot of things. Medicine is just a part of his knowledge."
Everyone walked into a large room and saw that there were many wooden couches here. At this time, more than ten people were lying on the couches. A white-haired old man sat beside one of them and took their pulse. This person should be the old patriarch. Li Xing walked to the old man and asked, "Father, how is the situation?"
The old patriarch looked at Lu Fei and said, "Not good. The poison they were poisoned with is not only the Soul Enchanting Incense, but also something else. If we want to cure this poison, we have to know what kind of poison the other party used. Their pulse is weakening, and they could die at any time. There are thousands of poisons that can slow down the heartbeat. I have never seen this kind of poisoning symptoms. It seems that their poison should be a new kind of poison. Perhaps only they have the antidote. "
A woman fell to her knees in front of the old patriarch and cried, "Old patriarch, you must save my son. He is only seventeen years old, and he is not married yet …"
Lu Fei looked at the people lying on the couches and thought that they were poisoned because they followed him. He said, "This is because of me. I will go and ask them for the antidote."
Li Xing said, "Young Master Lu is still in charge of the situation here. If you go, I am afraid … I am afraid that the stronghold will not be able to hold on."
Lu Fei pondered for a moment and said, "Don't be afraid. The other party will not dare to attack in a short time. If they really want to be ruthless, I can only spare no effort to assassinate the core members of their church. At that time, no matter what, everyone must hold on. With the catapults, the other party should not be able to break through in a short time."
At this time, another person came to report and handed a letter to Li Xing, "Patriarch, someone shot an arrow and sent a message. This was found on the city gate tower."
Li Xing immediately opened the letter and read it. After reading it, he handed it to Lu Fei. Lu Fei reached out and took it. He saw that the letter was made of fragrant paper with gold sprinkled on it. There was a faint fragrance on it. Li Yun also came over to take a look and saw that it said, "If you want the antidote, Lu Fei will bring Li Yun to Solitary Cloud Town. There are only two of them, it will be ineffective if there are too many people." At the end of the letter, it was signed by Lan Zhen. Lu Fei handed the letter to Li Yun and said, "This Lan Zhen has understood Uncle Li's temperament. She knows that you will not leave her in the lurch."
The old patriarch's nose twitched and he hurriedly shouted, "Quickly throw the letter away."
Li Yun was shocked and hurriedly threw the letter in her hand to the ground. She then shook her head and said, "I am so dizzy." After saying that, she directly fell to the ground. Lu Fei immediately reached out and caught her in his hand. He also felt dizzy and hurriedly circulated his Qi to expel the poison. Li Xing also sat on the chair and said, "This poison is really powerful. I just smelled it just now."
The old patriarch picked up the teacup on the table and poured all the tea on the letter on the ground. He then took out a small bottle from his arms and placed it under Li Xing's nose and said, "Smell it a few more times." Li Xing hurriedly sniffed a few times and placed the bottle under Li Yun's nose. However, no matter how much Li Yun inhaled, she did not wake up.
The old patriarch said, "It doesn't work. This poison is the same as the one in these people. If she inhales a little, she can use medicine to forcibly suppress it. Once she faints, she can only wait for the antidote to save her."
Lu Fei finished circulating his Qi and exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi. "This Lan Zhen is really scheming." In his heart, he cursed her thousands of times. In the end, he smiled bitterly and said, "Now I can only go and get the antidote." Seeing the hesitation on Li Xing's face, he said, "But I will not bring Ah Yun over."
Li Xing said, "But this way, I am afraid this Lan Zhen will not show up."
Lu Fei said coldly, "When I destroy the Fire Worship Sect's stronghold, I am not afraid that she will not show up."
