The boy looked ordinary and inconspicuous, but he had a pair of smart eyes. Just now, he thought of a person at a glance, so he couldn't help but call out to the boy.
Ye Zhen's body stiffened. She turned her head and said timidly, "I came with my father yesterday to deliver food. Old woman Wang left us to be cooks."
Lu Lingzhi took a few steps forward. "Raise your head."
"…" Ye Zhen's heart was beating like a drum. Did Lu Lingzhi recognize her? Impossible! Her disguise was not so easy to recognize. How could he know who she was?
"What's your name?" Lu Lingzhi asked. These eyes really looked like her. He felt his heart soften when he looked at them.
"Dashan." Ye Zhen casually said a name.
Luo Cheng chuckled. "You're still called Dashan?"
Ye Zhen buried her head lower. Why can't I be called Dashan? Then how can I be called Dashan?
"Are you a cook here?" Lu Lingzhi asked in a low voice. "In the future … you will deliver my meals."
"Ah?" Ye Zhen froze for a moment, not understanding what Lu Lingzhi meant.
"I live in the house in front." Lu Lingzhi said faintly and left with Luo Cheng.
Ye Zhen frowned as she watched him leave. She didn't understand what Lu Lingzhi meant. Was he going to test her? Or had he already seen her identity and deliberately wanted her to take the bait?
No matter what Lu Lingzhi meant, she would not leave like this.
She carried the food box and continued to walk forward. Before she entered the house, she saw Yan Jintang standing outside the door.
"Why did that man stop you just now?" Yan Jintang looked at Ye Zhen sharply and asked.
Ye Zhen looked at Yan Jintang and found that his complexion was much better than yesterday. His eyes were clear, completely different from the madman she saw yesterday.
"I don't know him either. He asked me to deliver his meals tomorrow." Ye Zhen whispered, wondering if she should poison Lu Lingzhi's food.
Yan Jintang glanced at Ye Zhen. "Come in with me."
Ye Zhen lowered her head and followed him into the house. She took out all the food in the food box. "Master Yan, eat your breakfast while it's hot."
"Did you do all this?" Yan Jintang sat down. It had been a long time since he had sobered up for an entire night. The dinner sent by the youth yesterday must have contained the antidote, otherwise, he would not have woken up.
"Yes." Ye Zhen smiled and nodded, "How does Hero Yan feel about the taste?"
Yan Jintang didn't answer. Instead, he silently ate his breakfast. He took a deep breath and felt that the burning addiction in his heart had been suppressed. He wouldn't think about eating the Fishy Poison Pill again.
"You know Zhong Yue, right?" Yan Jintang asked.
Ye Zhen didn't answer him. She didn't know what kind of person Yan Jintang was and it was not easy to believe him.
"Zhong Yue is my younger brother-in-law. The last time he pretended to be a Poison Man and came to look for me, he was discovered by Chou Hui. Before he was captured by Chou Hui, he told me … that Yan Xiaoliu was in the palace." Yan Jintang said.
"Yan Xiaoliu?" Ye Zhen pretended to be puzzled, "Is he your son?"
Yan Jintang looked down at the table, his mind recalling the bloody scene of the Yan family that day. He closed his eyes in pain, "Yes, my son … If I hadn't been greedy and wanted to enhance my internal force, I wouldn't have been attracted by the Fishy Poison Pill, and the Yan family … wouldn't have happened."
"What happened?" Ye Zhen asked curiously, then waved her hand, "If you don't want to tell me, I'm just a little curious."
"I was controlled by the poison of the Fishy Poison Pill and killed everyone in Yan Jia Village. I killed my wife with my own hands …" Yan Jintang looked at his own hands. After Yan Jia Village was exterminated, he was immersed in the poison of the Fishy Poison Pill and didn't remember that he still had a son. It was Zhong Yue who gave him the antidote. That was why he was conscious for two hours.
However, it was last night that he really sobered up. He remembered everything and regretted it. He couldn't wait to tear Chou Hui's body into pieces. He knew that he was not Chou Hui's opponent, and now he didn't even know where he was.
Ye Zhen looked at him in surprise, "You … what about your son?"
"Fortunately, he wasn't in the manor that night, so he managed to escape." Yan Jintang smiled bitterly. Fortunately, he was not there. "No matter who sent you, I won't ask you. Tell me, how much more do I need to eat … to be fully sober?"
"Master Yan, you always talk about being sober. What are you going to do?" Ye Zhen asked.
Yan Jintang glanced at Ye Zhen. "Kill Chou Hui and go to Xiao Liu … No, I can't go to Xiao Liu. Let him think I'm dead. I have no face to see him."
Ye Zhen listened to Yan Jintang's painful struggle and knew that he must be very sad at this time.
"Master Yan, I'm going back to the kitchen." Ye Zhen said. She had to wait for Yan Jintang to completely detoxify the poison.
"Make more soup in the future. I'll let others drink a little." Yan Jintang said so much, but he didn't see the boy admit to knowing Yan Xiaoliu. He knew that he was a cautious person. Now that there were poisonous people everywhere in this house, there were few normal people. It was right for the boy to be cautious.
Ye Zhen looked at Yan Jintang in surprise. "Okay."
"Most of the people in this house are friends with me in the past. I know their characters very well. They won't kill the innocent." Yan Jintang whispered. Even if there were a few ambitious ones, they should regret being controlled for so long.
"Okay, the weather has changed recently. I'll cook more soup tomorrow." Ye Zhen said with a smile and left Yan Jintang's house with the food box.
Before returning to the kitchen, Ye Zhen heard a chaotic sound coming from the front. What happened?
"Yao Yao." Huang Fuchen came to her at some point and pulled her to a corner. "There are a few people in front who are killing people indiscriminately. Don't go there."
"Master, Yan Jintang has woken up. He seems to want to detoxify others." Ye Zhen lowered her voice. "Tomorrow, I'll put the antidote in the soup and let others drink it."
Huang Fuchen nodded solemnly. "I've asked around. There are three wells in this house. They only drink water from one well. We have to go there and put the antidote in."
"That's easy. Tomorrow, we'll say that the kitchen has run out of water and we need to fetch more water. That way, we can put the antidote in." Ye Zhen said with a smile.
"I'm afraid that Ah Zhan will attack the city in advance to save you." Huang Fuchen said. With the current military strength, it was naturally not a problem to attack the Da 'an Prefecture. However, the poisonous people in the Da' an Prefecture were famous in the Jianghu. There were also other innocent people. Only when everyone was detoxified would it be the best time to attack the city.
Ye Zhen shook her head firmly. "No, he won't. He will wait for us to send out the news before attacking the city."
