Chapter 378: Selection

“Wife, we have to drink this water sparingly! I’m afraid we won’t have anything to drink after drinking this pot of water!” Luo Cheng reminded Li Xiaoran after she finished drinking the teacup.

“Why?” Li Xiaoran asked in confusion, “Even if the food has been taken away, there’s still water in the well!”

“Can the water in the well still be drunk at this time? If I were those soldiers, I would definitely tamper with it.” Luo Cheng shook his head and said seriously.

Li Xiaoran was stunned for a moment before saying, “The food and firewood have been taken away, but they can’t take the water away, so poisoning is definitely the simplest solution!”

“That’s right! So the water in this well can’t be drunk anymore!” Luo Cheng nodded and said.

“Huh, there seems to be a smell of oil here. The people in this room must have food!” At that moment, a man’s voice came from outside.

Then, hurried footsteps sounded.

Many people who heard the news ran towards Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran’s room.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng quickly wrapped the meatloaf in a bag and covered it with a blanket.

Luo Cheng also took out a porcelain bottle and sprinkled some powder at the door.

“Who’s inside? Do you have food? Share it with us!”

“No, we just ate the breakfast we saved in the morning!” Luo Cheng replied in a low voice.

When the people outside heard Luo Cheng’s words, they didn’t believe him at all.

“There’s only one person inside. There aren’t many people, so if everyone bangs open the door together, we’ll be able to snatch food!” After a person’s voice sounded, the group of people slammed into the door.

When Luo Cheng heard the commotion outside, his expression immediately darkened.

“Stop it. I said there’s nothing to eat! If anyone harasses us again, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

The people outside seemed ignored Luo Cheng’s words and continued to smash on the door.

How could this door withstand the impact of so many people? It was quickly smashed open.

At this moment, under Luo Cheng’s signal, Li Xiaoran hid behind the cabinet with the meatloaf.

After the people outside rammed open the door, they saw Luo Cheng standing in the middle of the room.

Perhaps they were too hungry, but the group rushed into the room without even asking.

However, before they could take a step, they felt dizzy and immediately fell to the ground.

It wasn’t just the people at the door. At this moment, everyone in the corridor outside felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

“I’ve said it before. If you harass us again, don’t blame me for being ruthless! This Soft Tendon Powder can force you guys to be more obedient!” Luo Cheng looked at these people as he said coldly.

This time, those who didn’t faint also Imew how powerful Luo Cheng was, so no one dared to try to snatch things anymore.

After Luo Cheng walked over, he kicked the unconscious people outside one by one and held the door up. Then, he used tables, chairs, and benches to block it. Although it was no longer as secretive as before, at least it could block the

view.

Li Xiaoran’s heart skipped a beat. The scene just now really frightened her.

If Luo Cheng had not used the drug, one could imagine what would have happened if these people had rushed in.

“Husband, what should we do now?” Li Xiaoran asked in a low voice.

Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, “Wife, can you still sense other people’s emotions now? I want you to find those whose emotions are different.

It’s very likely that they’re the people the authorities are chasing after!”

“That’s not a problem. I can screen some people according to their emotions,” Li Xiaoran said.

Luo Cheng nodded and said, “Then sense it first. I’ll be in charge of protecting you. Remember, do your best. If you can’t do it, don’t force yourself. You have to conserve your strength!”

Li Xiaoran nodded and sat down behind the wardrobe. Then, she began to carefully sense the emotions of the people in the inn.

Because everyone was gathered in the same inn, Li Xiaoran planned to do a preliminary screening first.

A normal person would be panicking and feel afraid when they encountered such a thing. Or they would have a mental breakdown.

These emotions occupied the vast majority.

Therefore, the people who were eliminated in the first part were quickly screened.

Next, she checked the remaining people one by one.

Some people had experienced many ordeals and knew to deal with such things calmly and deal with them according to the situation.

This group of people was quite calm.

Therefore, after excluding this group of people, there were much fewer people left.

By now, there were eight people left.

One was the woman in red who had made a clamor previously. She seemed very agitated and eager to fight.

If not for the poison outside, this girl would have rushed in.

The second was the man who had clamored to go out at the beginning. At this moment, he was curled up in a corner and actually sleeping soundly. Such a person was either very carefree or conserving his strength for his next move.

After all, there was nothing to eat, and they didn’t dare to drink the water, so there was only one way left, which was to have a good sleep.

In the southernmost upper room of the inn, there were five people.

The man was very calm, as if he didn’t have to worry about anything.

The other four must be the man’s guards. They were a little wary and tense now.

The remaining one, an old man, was leaning against a wall where the woodshed was stored.

The old man was emotionless from the beginning to the end. He just sat there quietly and ignored what was happening around him.

Li Xiaoran couldn’t judge these eight people at the moment, so she left the analysis to Luo Cheng.

After Luo Cheng obtained information of these eight people’s emotions, he thought about it carefully and said, “These eight people are all suspects!” With that, Luo Cheng sat at the table and began to think seriously.

“I previously felt that something was wrong with the woman in red and the man who tried to stir up trouble at the beginning, but the other six also seem a little suspicious!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she immediately laughed. “Maybe others think that something’s fishy about us too!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he was immediately reminded.

If he were a suspect, he would have kept a low profile and definitely wouldn’t have acted differently from the others.

At this moment, the suspect would want to act like everyone else. Only then could he hide his identity.

After Luo Cheng voiced his thoughts, Li Xiaoran thought of something.

“If we let everyone return to their rooms one by one, won’t the suspect be the only one without a room to return to?” Li Xiaoran asked..
