Wang Yun had been unconscious for quite some time. Before the middle-aged man made a move on "Old Xu," he had already started foaming at the mouth. Now that the small-scale battle was over, he still had not woken up.
Fortunately, the middle-aged man did not seem to want to take Old Xu's life, so the poison in the biscuits only suppressed his nerves and did not kill him.
A group of people surrounded the unconscious Wang Yun. Four of them were Wang Yun's subordinates, so they stopped pretending and quickly checked on Wang Yun's physical condition. It wasn't until the four of them confirmed that Wang Yun was only unconscious that they felt relieved.
After the examination was completed, the four of them looked at each other. After joining the team, everyone maintained a state of not knowing each other and did not even communicate with each other.
But they did not notice anything unusual with Director Wang Yun over the past few days. How did he suddenly get poisoned after eating a compressed biscuit?
Could it have been done by Director Wang Yun's other two rivals in the Kong Clan?
Although they had left the Kong Clan, they still had to apply for supplies from the logistics division of the intelligence agency. Based on the methods of those two rivals, it would not be difficult for them to poison the supplies.
Moreover, the competition was still intense. Although it was a little crazy to poison their opponents to death, it was not impossible.
Wang Yun did not tell them that he had been hungry for a day and a half. After all, as their commander, it was a little embarrassing for him to do so. Wang Yun thought it would be very easy for him to take care of such a matter.
Therefore, his subordinates did not think much of it and only felt that their commander might have been plotted against by his political rivals.
One of them muttered in a low voice, "Sir, our supplies were all mixed together. I'm afraid that our biscuits have also been poisoned."
"But nothing happened when we ate them before," someone replied.
"The proportion of the biscuits they poisoned might not be high." The person who spoke earlier explained, "Maybe only 10% of the biscuits were poisoned, but would you dare bet your life on which one was poisoned and which one was not?"
There were still other people around them, but the four of them were no longer pretending.
They had pretended that they did not know each other before. But now that their commander was in trouble, there was no need to continue pretending.
"I wonder when our commander will wake up?"
"Sir is an Extraordinaire. He should be fine."
It was not until the next morning that Wang Yun slowly woke up. When he saw the four of them guarding him, he immediately asked, "How long was I out for?"
"One night." A subordinate recounted what happened last night. "Sir, did you get poisoned by the compressed biscuits we brought over?"
Wang Yun was still a little weak. He paused and said, "Yes."
He couldn't explain himself either. He used his superpower to steal someone else's biscuits in the middle of the night and ended up getting poisoned. He couldn't bring himself to say something so embarrassing …
At this time, some people in the camp had already woken up and were packing up.
Wang Yun observed the campsite. He knew that the fact that the five of them were together must have been known by everyone in the campsite. He looked at his subordinates and said, "I haven't eaten anything all night. Go get some food and water for me."
In fact, Wang Yun hadn't eaten anything all night. He was so hungry that he couldn't take it anymore. Since their identities had been exposed, he might as well get some food from his subordinates.
However, his subordinate answered, "Sir, we'll get you some water first. We can't eat any more of our food. What if the other supplies are also poisoned? I'll go get rid of the remaining supplies right away!"
"Get rid of them?" Wang Yun was stunned.
"Yes, your competitor must've poisoned our food this time, so we can't eat any of it." The subordinate said matter-of-factly, "But it doesn't matter. We'll go out again in the morning to see if there's any food nearby. Don't worry, surviving in the wilderness won't be a problem for us."
With that, the subordinate went to throw away all the food they had brought.
Wang Yun felt like crying but had no tears. He really did not know how to explain himself. Moreover, he had just admitted that he was poisoned by eating his biscuits.
With the food they had brought with them being thrown away by his subordinates, and not a single living creature could be seen in Mt. Shenchi, Wang Yun felt he had to leave this place as soon as possible. No matter where he went, he had to at least go to a place where he could find food.
If Wang Yun were to become the first supernatural being to starve to death in this era of supernatural beings, he might as well commit suicide right now!
"Help me up." Wang Yun struggled to get up with the help of his subordinates. He walked to the middle of the campsite and asked Cheng Yu, "What's our next plan?"
Next to him, Luo Lan chuckled and said, "We're going to leave right away. Those people who were captured by the tarantulas can move slowly now. Although they're still a little slow, the Pyro Company has probably already set their sights on this place, so we can't stay here for long. What's with your poison? Look at how pale you look. Why don't we rest for the rest of the morning while we wait for you? "
"There's no need to wait!" Wang Yun said firmly, "Let's leave Mt. Shenchi right away!"
"He's quite strong," Luo Lan muttered softly as he went to look for Zhou Qi to pack his things.
When Wang Yun heard what Luo Lan said, he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood. Wasn't he fucking forced to be so strong?!
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu was looking at Wang Yun and the others. Then he whispered to Yang Xiaojin, "I just saw that guy's subordinates throw away their food. Could someone really have poisoned them?"
"That's also possible." Yang Xiaojin said indifferently, "It looks like it."
"Then I suddenly have a bold idea. Even if they don't have anything to eat, I still have a lot of it with me," Ren Xiaosu said.
"Why? You want to earn money from him?" Yang Xiaojin glanced at Ren Xiaosu. "Why do you need so much money?"
"Of course I need money." Ren Xiaosu said, "We won't need money to live our lives in the future. I heard getting married, having children, and buying a house all depend on money. How can I let our children live a hard life?"
When Yang Xiaojin heard this, she immediately rolled her eyes. She knew that this fellow, Ren Xiaosu, was starting to take advantage of her again.
She almost laughed out of anger. This guy in front of her was so cowardly in his actions, but he was really shameless in his words.
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu walked up to Wang Yun and said, "Look, someone must have poisoned the food you brought with you. We happen to have some extra with us, so we can sell it to you!"
Wang Yun's eyes lit up. "Thank you, we happen to need it. May I ask how much are you selling the food for?"
"One million …" Ren Xiaosu was just about to say he would sell 50 pieces of hardtack for one million yuan when he heard a new quest being issued from the palace.
Next to him, Cheng Yu was watching the commotion. He thought to himself that Ren Xiaosu was really daring enough to make such a request. One million yuan was quite a lot of money, so Wang Yun probably wouldn't agree to it.
Then he heard Ren Xiaosu change his mind and say, "I don't need money either. If you sing a nursery rhyme with me, I'll give you 50 pieces of hardtack."
Cheng Yu was speechless.
Wang Yun was speechless.
