"That's impossible!"
Yue Zhengzidan subconsciously denied his brother's words loudly.
But then, he suddenly realized that he was too guilty, so he had to think of a way to remedy the situation.
"What I mean is, Aunt Qing has nothing to do with Master Gong. The two of them …"
He became more and more guilty as he spoke, and his voice became softer and softer.
Fortunately, Yue Zhengzidan didn't notice anything wrong with him. He just tried to recall the figure that he missed so much.
"I think she's just like Aunt Qing. They're both amazing women. But compared to Aunt Qing, she's braver. "
Yue Zhengzidan rarely admired someone.
But when he was young, Aunt Qing, who had saved him from danger, was one of them.
Now, there would probably be another one.
It was a pity that they met at the wrong time. He also regretted that he missed the chance to be friends with her.
But at least he felt that they shouldn't be enemies.
"Let's go in and have a look."
Yue Zhengzidan lost his mood at the thought of those troublesome fellows.
.....
Lin Mengya was very efficient when it came to business.
In a short while, she had sorted out the information brought by the two brothers.
"The only thing I can be sure of is that those who got sick must have been affected by those poisonous wasps. But I haven't seen it, so I don't know what it's like. "
Actually, Lin Mengya felt that things were a little different from what she had expected.
At least the families who had bought a lot of insect repellent from her should not have been affected so badly.
Because she had secretly improved the formula of the insect repellent. Although it couldn't completely detoxify the wasps, it could reduce the toxicity by a little.
As for the medicine she used to deal with the crazy wasps last time, she planned to sell it at a high price to each household after they had piled up the wasps together. Then, she would treat it as a non-toxic treatment.
Who knew that they would get sick so suddenly.
This made Lin Mengya realize that things might not be so simple.
"But now that they're sick, we can't just sit back and do nothing. It's just that the two of us don't know any medical books, so we'll have to trouble Master Gong for this matter. "
Yue Zhengzidan looked at her sincerely.
After thinking for a while, Lin Mengya asked someone to take out the antidote she had developed.
"There are two antidotes here. One is for humans, and the other is for those wasps. However, I still need to study the part that targets humans. "
Seeing that Yue Zhengzi wanted to say something but hesitated, she slowly said, "I didn't mean to delay, it's just that those wasps don't have a single bee venom."
Mixing poisons was not just a matter of mixing several poisons together.
Instead, it was to carry out a targeted combination according to the properties of each poison, and finally achieve the effect of one plus one is greater than two.
Sometimes, it was even possible to create a completely different poison.
Even if he had the System to cheat and his teacher to research with him, it would still be a huge project to configure all the antidotes.
As for why he didn't order those people to evacuate immediately …
That was because from the moment the poisonous bees appeared, the people here were already enveloped by the poison.
If they ran out rashly, the consequences would not only cause these people to be poisoned along the way, they might even bring the poison elsewhere.
Besides, these wasps were controlled by humans.
If they split up, it would be easier to defeat them one by one.
After all, the number of poisonous wasps was much greater than the number of people here.
Yue Zhengzi's brows furrowed more tightly. It seemed that the situation was indeed not optimistic.
However, the news that Lin Mengya gave him next made him feel like he was struck by lightning.
"Whether you believe it or not, the mastermind behind this incident is Chu Jingye from the Chu family. My people have already discovered their stronghold outside the city, but I'm telling you, based on your current strength, there's no way to resist them. "
"What? It's really him! "
"So, you've long suspected him?"
Lin Mengya glanced at Yue Zhengzi.
Seeing that the latter nodded, she knocked on the table and said, "I guess since he can expose my teacher's identity, he will definitely spare no effort to discredit us in the future. So, we have to cooperate now. "
Yue Zhengzi's original intention was the same, but he didn't expect that Lin Mengya would beat him to it.
He felt a little awkward.
He always felt that compared to the other party, he didn't seem like a man.
"Since that's the case, then I'll be straightforward."
Lin Mengya said indifferently, "Our previous agreement is still valid. In exchange for the treasure of the aboriginals, my teacher and I will do our best to help you deal with the impact of this incident. However, I have to add one more condition. After this incident, you can't have any ideas about my teacher anymore. "
Her words left no room for negotiation.
Moreover, she wasn't afraid that the other party would say that she was taking advantage of the situation.
She was indeed taking advantage of the situation.
But there were so many aboriginals' lives, wasn't it worth it?
Yue Zhengzi slowly exhaled and shook his head with a bitter smile. "Master Gong, you're throwing all the problems at me."
"Fine, this incident started because of the aboriginals. You and Mr. Baili can be considered to have been implicated by us. I'll agree to it. "
After that, he said hesitantly, "To be honest, the treasure of the aboriginals isn't in my hands yet."
"Not in your hands? Then where is it? "She frowned slightly, her tone slightly dissatisfied.
Yue Zhengzi was also afraid that she would misunderstand, so he quickly explained, "Actually, the treasure of the aboriginals is usually in the treasure room in the backyard of the clan meeting hall. But about half a year ago, the Elders came to take it away."
"But they should be sending it over in a few days. After all, we can't delay the important matters of the clan."
Did this mean that he was giving her an empty promise again?
Lin Mengya was even more worried.
Ever since she came to the aboriginals, the impression that the Elders gave her was getting worse and worse.
Not to mention those who used their status in the Elders to be arrogant and domineering.
For example, the Great Elder who had tried to drug her previously had simply refreshed her understanding of the shameless and selfish nature of the Elders Guild.
"You don't have to worry about this, Patriarch Gong. Apart from Zi Tan, no one else on my side knows about our transaction this time. The Elders Council will definitely not know about this."
After hearing Yue Zhengzi's words, although she was still a little worried, she could only do so for the time being.
But she also kept an eye on things.
In the name of concern, she asked the Elders where the team escorting the treasure should be.
After that, she secretly sent someone to look for it. This was double insurance.
After the other party finished discussing the countermeasures, the Yue brothers also left in satisfaction.
However, when the two of them went outside, they both had the same 'frowning' expression on their faces.
This was especially so for Yue Zhengzi, who kept sighing. It was obvious that he couldn't find a solution.
This scene was fed back to Chu Jingye's ears by the spy.
"Hahahaha, good! Good! Good! I knew that even if Gong Ya had three heads and six arms, she wouldn't be able to break through my meticulous plan in such a short time! "
So, the final victory belonged to him!
This understanding made Chu Jingye sweep away his previous gloominess.
"Congratulations, master! Then, what should we do next? "
The person who replied was a steward that he trusted quite a lot.
At this moment, just like his master, his face was full of pride.
After following him for so many years and pretending to be a grandson, this time the tables had turned.
"There's no hurry, let the people in the city be in a mess again. It's not too late for me to appear when they are in a mess."
Chu Jingye licked his lips.
When he thought of those people who were once high and mighty crawling under his feet, even though they were obviously unwilling, they still had to be respectful to him in exchange for a way to live, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
Finally, this day had finally come!
After another two days, some families in the city couldn't hold it in anymore.
Although other than the first death, there were no deaths in the other families.
But more and more people showed symptoms of discomfort.
No one knew whether the next one to die would be themselves or their relatives.
Until a small family with only seven or eight people secretly packed their luggage and wanted to leave secretly under the cover of the night.
But just as they left the city, they were blocked on the road.
"Who, who are you people? Why don't you let us leave? "
The leader of the small family stared at the person in front of him in shock and anger.
"Go back! My master has ordered that no one is allowed to leave the city, otherwise … "
The person who blocked the road sneered, then took out a long knife with a cold light, and slashed at the small family's leader.
"Father!"
Fortunately, the teenage boy next to him reacted quickly and pulled his father over.
Even though he managed to avoid this malicious slash, his arm was still cut.
"What are you doing? Do you want to kill someone? "The teenager roared.
That person didn't have the slightest regret, but curled his lips, feeling that it was a pity that his knife missed the target.
He looked coldly at the wolf cub who dared to bare his teeth at him, and sneered, "Disobedient people will end up like this. If you don't go back, don't blame me for not showing you any mercy! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the men in black behind him with swords and sabers in their hands were about to approach.
Helpless, the Little Patriarch could only lead his family back to Moon Lake City in a sorry state.
"Everyone in the city, listen up! From now on, without my master's order, none of you are allowed to leave! Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed! "
That voice was sharp and resounding, reaching the ears of many people.
Not long after, all the families in the city got the news, and everyone's expression changed.
It was only now that they realized that the Mad Bee Plague was a deliberate act of someone!
