Feng Qiqi nodded at Feng Cang, and the two of them split up. Feng Qiqi stared at Elder Fujiwara's lips as he recited the incantation, while Feng Cang's eyes never left Ah Zha's feet.
Feng Cang and Feng Qiqi only retracted their gazes after the demonstration was over. "Thank you, Elder Fujiwara!" Feng Qiqi was glad that her godfather had forced her to learn how to read lips. Thus, she was able to understand what Elder Fujiwara was mumbling after two tries.
Before Feng Qi Qi left, she expressed her gratitude to Elder Fujiwara and said, "Elder, have you been consuming some special medicine recently? If you have, please listen to my advice. This is not medicine, but poison. It will make you addicted to it. If you continue to take it, you will become a cripple, and from an expert, you will become a weakling without the strength to truss a chicken. In the end, you will die miserably! "
The others did not understand what Feng Qiqi was trying to say. Only Elder Fujiwara's expression changed slightly after hearing what she said.
How did Feng Qiqi know that he was taking the Immortal Ointment? He had not told anyone about it. Could it be that Feng Qiqi had figured out what he was doing just by smelling the smoke in his room? However, Feng Qiqi was being a little too alarmist. What did she mean by 'die a horrible death'? Was she threatening him?
Elder Fujiwara's expression had already revealed his inner thoughts. It seemed that the old man was unaware of the dangers of opium. Feng Qiqi smiled helplessly. "Elder, if you don't believe me, you can ask a doctor to examine you. The scientific name of this poison is opium. It's a black solid substance. It's usually put in a tobacco pouch and smoked together with tobacco. "
"At first, opium can relieve pain and make one relax. However, after taking it for a period of time, one will be immersed in endless fantasies and become addicted to it. If one doesn't take it every day, one will feel uncomfortable all over.
"I don't know how long you have been taking it, nor do I know how dependent you are on it. I just want you to listen to my advice. Even if you don't think for yourself, you have to think for the sake of the people in your clan. If you allow others to become addicted to the drug, you will be harming yourself and others! "
Feng Qiqi's description matched Elder Fujiwara's feelings. How did she know about the Immortal Ointment? Why did Feng Qiqi call the Celestial Ointment opium? Elder Fujiwara was still doubting Feng Qiqi's words a moment ago, but he was starting to believe it now. This was because the effects of the Divine Ointment that Feng Qiqi had described were exactly the same as what Elder Fujiwara had experienced himself.
Could the Celestial Ointment really be the opium that Feng Qiqi mentioned? If that was the case, then could it be that Du Yi and the others recommended the Immortal Ointment to him to make him addicted so that they could control him?
Elder Fujiwara was no fool. He could easily tell if Feng Qiqi was telling the truth or not. Previously, Elder Fujiwara was still happy that he had obtained the Celestial Ointment, but now, he was panicking.
At present, his dependence on the Immortal Ointment had increased from once every two days to twice a day.
Even after Feng Qiqi and Feng Cang had left, Elder Fujiwara was still thinking about the Divine Ointment. He took out a small box from his bosom and opened it. Elder Fujiwara frowned as he looked at the black Immortal Ointment lying inside. Who should he believe?!
While Ah Zha was still training Feng Cang on the mountaintop, Feng Qiqi went to Good and Mingyue Cheng and told them about the dangers of opium. Both Mingyue Cheng and Good were shocked when they heard that opium had once caused the destruction of a powerful country.
"Is there really such a powerful poison?" Good had never heard of opium, nor had he seen it before. Therefore, he was still a little doubtful after hearing Feng Qiqi's words.
"Yes!" Obviously, Feng Qiqi could not tell them that it happened in the history of another world, as she would be treated as a monster if she did. In order to make Good and Mingyue Cheng believe her, and to prevent the spread of opium on this continent and harm the people, Feng Qiqi decided to use Penglai Island as the location of the incident.
"When I was on Penglai Island, I heard this story from Taixu Zhenren. He even taught me how to recognize opium and showed me the finished product."
With the mention of Penglai Island, Good completely believed Feng Qi Qi's words. Now that Feng Qiqi said that Elder Fujiwara was using opium, it immediately caught Good's attention. "Elder Fujiwara is an elder in the clan. Why would he have opium?"
"Well, I'm not too sure about that. Looking at Elder Fujiwara, it seems like he has been addicted to opium for quite some time now. Someone must have given it to him, but I have no idea what the person's motive is. However, one thing I'm sure of is that opium is not a good thing! Not only can it destroy a person, but it can also destroy an entire nation and a country! "
When Good heard that opium could destroy an entire nation, he was completely on Feng Qiqi's side. As the chief of the Xin clan, Good's mission was to bring glory to the Xin clan. Now that there was such a thing that could destroy the Xin clan, it was something that Good, as the chief of the Xin clan, did not wish to see.
"Qiqi, what if … I mean, what if Elder Fujiwara really consumed the opium and became addicted to it? What should we do?"
Mingyue Cheng frowned. He did not expect that there would be such a poison in this world that could destroy an entire country. If opium was mass-produced by someone, wouldn't that be terrible? Mingyue Cheng did not doubt Feng Qiqi's words at all. In fact, he felt that Feng Qiqi was exaggerating. Perhaps, the truth was even crueler than what she said.
"Force him to detoxify! If he doesn't want to die, he will have to force himself to detoxify! "
"Alright! I'll send someone to investigate. If Elder Fujiwara is really addicted to opium, I'll need your help then, Your Highness! " Good's understanding of opium was limited to what Feng Qiqi had told him. Now that the benefits of the Xin clan were at stake, Good had to keep it in mind. Moreover, Elder Fujiwara was an elder of the Xin clan. No matter what, Good would not allow Elder Fujiwara to become addicted to opium and not help him.
Just as Good was about to meet Elder Fujiwara, Jin Mo rushed over. "Bad news! Miss Gu has gone missing! "
Upon hearing that his beloved daughter had gone missing, Good immediately lost his composure. He strode forward and grabbed Jin Mo's collar, glaring at him fiercely. "What happened? What the hell happened? Where did my daughter go? "
