"What do you mean?" Shen Jingxuan was a little unhappy when she heard Xiao Chen's words. "My grandfather is blessed. How is he supposed to die a long time ago?"
"Jingxuan, listen to Hero White Fox first. Hero White Fox, tell me, who poisoned him?" Shen Zhenghao frowned and asked.
"Is there a need to ask? It must be Uncle's family! " At this moment, Shen Jingmao directly said, "When Big Brother White Fox was treating Grandpa, they kept stopping him. Moreover, Auntie's brother is a pharmacist and has treated Grandpa several times. Is it possible that he didn't notice that Grandpa was poisoned?"
"So it was Big Brother!" Shen Zhenghao said fiercely, "You're really vicious and pretentious. Hero White Fox, you have to help us this time. Otherwise, once the old man is gone, the next person they'll deal with will definitely be me!"
"It is certain that Medicine Master Tan could see that Grandpa was poisoned. As long as it is not a bad medicine master, anyone can see it." Xiao Chen waved his hand and continued, "However, it's not easy to tell what kind of poison, how many poisons, and why he didn't die after being poisoned!"
If Xiao Chen didn't have Yuan Qi and the Elder Heaven Ancestor, he wouldn't be able to see it. But with this set of alloy fingers, he could see the truth.
"How many poisons? How many poisons did he use? "Shen Zhenghao was shocked.
"It shouldn't be him. I guess there is more than one person." Xiao Chen said, "That's because both of these poisons are highly toxic. There's no need to use two at the same time. Most importantly, these two poisons are fighting poison with poison. They're restraining each other and counteracting each other. If I'm not mistaken, Medicine Master Tan must be wondering why Grandpa Shen hasn't passed away yet! "
"Oh? What do you mean? Someone poisoned him? "Shen Zhenghao asked.
"Correct, one of the poisons is very difficult to detect. Even an apothecary wouldn't be able to detect it. But I'm not an apothecary, I'm an Adept, so I can detect it." Xiao Chen said, "If my guess is correct, both Shen Zhengquan and Shen Zhengxin were poisoned! However, Shen Zhengquan's poison can be detected, but Shen Zhengxin's poison cannot. "
"Ah!" Shen Zhenghao, Shen Jingxuan, and Shen Jingmao were stunned when they heard Xiao Chen's analysis. They didn't expect there to be such an inside story.
"Then … what do we do now? Will something happen to my father? "Shen Zhenghao said," White Fox Hero, do you have any idea? We can't let Shen Zhengquan and Shen Zhengxin's scheme succeed. "
"It's very troublesome. The two poisons cancel each other out, but even if they cancel each other out, he should have died long ago." Xiao Chen explained, "Then the question is, why is Grandpa Shen still fine?"
"Why?" Shen Zhenghao asked with his eyes wide open.
"Because in his early years, his liver was seriously injured, and the nearby meridians were stagnant. These two poisons are concentrated in the liver, so the poison is in the liver. Because the nearby meridians are stagnant, the spread of the poison is slower. In this way, Grandpa Shen survived until now." Xiao Chen said, "However, it's very troublesome to solve it! These two poisons, if one is cured, the other will definitely take effect, but I can't think of a way to cure both at the same time … "
"So that's how it is!" Shen Zhenghao fell into deep thought. The expression on his face was helpless and angry, but there was no way.
"Dad, let's go to Grandpa and expose him!" Shen Jingmao said angrily. He didn't expect his uncle and second uncle to be so ruthless.
"Don't!" Shen Zhenghao and Xiao Chen stopped him almost at the same time.
Shen Zhenghao looked at White Fox with some surprise and said, "You first …"
"Uncle Shen should say it first." Xiao Chen smiled.
"Jingmao, you don't have any evidence now. If you go and say it, who will believe it? Your uncle and second uncle are ruthless. I'm afraid they will do something bad to you! "Shen Zhenghao said," These things can't be believed just because you say it! "
"Yes, the most important thing is that even if Grandpa Shen believes it, it won't do him any good! People with a bad liver can't get angry. If they get angry, it will accelerate the effect of the poison in the liver, and the time they can hold on will be shorter. At that time, I'm afraid … "Xiao Chen didn't continue, but he believed that Shen Jingmao should understand.
Shen Jingmao lowered his head. His character was a bit impulsive, but he was not a fool. After his father and Xiao Chen said this, he immediately understood that his approach was not realistic.
"White Fox, then … can you think of a way?" Shen Jingxuan asked with some pleading.
"Yes." Xiao Chen nodded.
"You …" Shen Jingxuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"I'll try my best, but this situation is too complicated …" Xiao Chen planned to calm down and study with the Elder Heaven Ancestor. He wasn't very good at medical skills, but the Elder Heaven Ancestor was different.
"Good! Then I'll first … send you to the guest room to rest. " Shen Jingxuan also knew that she and Xiao Chen weren't engaged after all. If they lived together, it would cause criticism from the Shen Family. It was better to let Xiao Chen live alone.
Xiao Chen felt a little helpless. He had thought that he would be able to stay with Goddess Shen, but now, his dream had been shattered. However, he did not insist. A guest should follow the host's wishes. He and Shen Jingxuan came to a small house next to the villa. This was obviously a place for guests to stay, but they were not high-class guests. From the scale of the renovation, it should be specially provided for the distant relatives of the Shen family. After all, the house was built in the courtyard.
Since he was already here, Xiao Chen moved in. He roughly checked the room, but there were no surveillance cameras or listening devices. He thought that the Shen Family wouldn't be so bored as to monitor a guest like him. Besides, he came here at the last minute, and the Shen Family didn't prepare for it.
"Elder Heaven Ancestor, do you have a way?" As soon as Xiao Chen returned to the room, he hurriedly communicated with the Elder Heaven Ancestor. After all, Xiao Chen didn't want anything to happen to Shen Jingxuan. It could be seen that Shen Jingxuan and her grandfather had a good relationship. She was very concerned about her grandfather's illness, so how could Xiao Chen help? He would definitely help.
"I don't have a way yet …" Elder Heaven Ancestor said, "Xiao Chen, I'm not a prop for you to pick up girls. Do you think I'm Doraemon, asking me everything?"
"…" Xiao Chen was a little speechless. "Elder Heaven Ancestor, you and I are master and disciple. Why do we have to be so clear? I'll help you fulfill your dream in the future. When I'm powerful, I'll do whatever you want me to do!"
"That's more like it!" Elder Heaven Ancestor said, "Alright, I'll think about it. However, his situation is very complicated, and I might not be able to figure it out. If you were an expert in the Foundation Establishment Stage, it would be a piece of cake to cure this poison. However, you're in the Qi Refinement Stage now. Even if you're in the 10th level of the Qi Refinement Stage, you're still far from the Foundation Establishment Stage."
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble Elder Heaven Ancestor," Xiao Chen nodded and said.
Xiao Chen settled down here for the time being, but the villa far away in Songning City was already in an uproar.
Squatting in front of the flowerbed, Ye Xiaoye widened her eyes and watched someone pluck a Devil Grass Fruit. After a long time, she finally stormed into the villa angrily and yelled at Cheng Mengying and Jin Beibei who were having breakfast, "Did you touch my flowerbed?"
Cheng Mengying looked at Ye Xiaoye confusedly. Jin Beibei, on the other hand, said disdainfully, "Cousin Mengying, this person must be sick. She didn't take good care of her own flowerbed, and she asked other people whether they touched it or not. What? Have the weeds you planted withered?"
"I didn't touch it." Cheng Mengying merely shook her head. "Ye Xiaoye, don't talk to me like that. I don't owe you anything! Even if I did touch it, the flowerbed is the public property of the villa. What can you do? "
"Fine. So, it was you who touched it?" Ye Xiaoye said anxiously.
"Don't you understand what I'm talking about? I told you they didn't touch it! "Cheng Mengying frowned and ignored her. She continued to eat her breakfast.
Ye Xiaoye was a little upset. The Devil Grass Fruit was still there when she watered and fertilized it last night. Why was it gone this morning? It must be noted that the Devil Grass Fruit was very difficult to grow. Ye Xiaoye had gone through a lot of trouble to grow two of them, which were of great use to her. However, one of them had been lost out of nowhere. How could she not be anxious?
"Are there any surveillance cameras in this villa?" asked Ye Xiaoye.
"You are the first tenant to live here. Why are you asking me?" Cheng Mengying snapped, "Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because I can't argue with you. Beibei is often stationed here now!"
"I'm not joking. I really lost one of my herbs. It's very important to me …" Ye Xiaoye also knew that her tone had been a little rude due to her anxiety. Therefore, she said sincerely, "Mengying, Beibei, did you really not see it?"
"We just woke up …" Cheng Mengying rolled her eyes.
"What about Jingxuan and Xiao Chen?" asked Ye Xiaoye.
"Something happened to Jingxuan's family. They left last night." Cheng Mengying said, "If you think your herbs are important, you can sleep in a tent next to them. Alright, we have to go to school."
After that, Cheng Mengying and Jin Beibei left the villa together. They got into Jin Beibei's car and drove to school …
Meanwhile, Ye Xiaoye was pacing back and forth in front of the flower bed gloomily. However, her phone suddenly rang. She had received a push notification from the Warrior Guild!
Ye Xiaoye took a look. It turned out to be a mission for warriors near Songning City. Ye Xiaoye browsed through it. Not only did the mission reward points, but there was also a physical reward. It was to explore the ruins of an ancient sect!
"There are ruins of an ancient sect near Songning City? Really? " Ye Xiaoye looked at the push notification in her hand curiously. With the development of technology, the ruins of some sects were not as difficult to find as before.
