Ying Zijin's expression froze, but she didn't have any special reaction.
She tilted her head and glanced at the big screen again. Her voice was low and cold. "Number one on the list of poison masters?"
"Yes." Fifth Moon hiccuped. "I've been looking for him for more than ten years, but I haven't found him."
As she spoke, she spread out her hands. "I don't know why the Bevin family is so persistent. Among the hunters, poison masters are the most ferocious. They can really kill people without leaving a trace."
Poison masters could attack from afar, and they could also attack, and they were very good at hiding.
If they were sharpshooters, they could at least determine where they were hiding after the fact.
But it was impossible for poison masters.
The moment a poison master passed by someone, he would have already made his move.
And when the poison took effect, it would be a few days or even a year later, and the person who was poisoned wouldn't even realize it.
"I've seen the 17th on the list of poison masters. He was an old man, and he looked very scary." Fifth Moon said again, "So I guess that the number one on the list of poison masters should also be an old man. Anyway, these poison masters have lived for a long time."
Although poison masters, alchemists, and ancient doctors all studied medicine, there was an essential difference.
Alchemy originated in the Middle Ages of Continent O. There were many books related to alchemy from the 16th century to the 18th century.
In the beginning, scientists studied alchemy to study how to transform stones and some very common metals into gold.
This involved a lot of chemical principles.
Therefore, alchemy also promoted the development of chemistry.
But the emergence of modern chemistry refuted alchemy. In fact, it was not.
Real alchemy was just not shown in front of ordinary people.
Alchemists pursued not only turning stones into gold, but also the panacea, which could also be said to be the elixir of immortality.
It was similar to the rumored alchemy techniques of the Emperor Dynasty.
But so much time had passed, and the combined power of alchemy and ancient medicine couldn't really make people immortal.
At most, they could develop human potential to the limit and prolong life.
Poisoners were better than alchemists and ancient doctors.
Because poison masters could cure people, they could also kill people.
Alchemists and ancient doctors might not necessarily be able to cure the poison of poison masters.
But any poison master who was on the list, even if it was only the 100th, would be recruited by major international forces.
The poison master list was much more valuable than the spear god list.
"No." Ying Zijin slowly tore open the chocolate wrapper and retorted, "The number one poison master is not an old man."
After a pause, she continued, "She's very good-looking, but her temper hasn't been very good lately."
The fifth month: "???"
"That's impossible, right?" Fifth Moon was very confused. "During my grandfather's time, the number one spot on the Poison Master Ranking List had never changed. There was no name or code name. How many years have passed? How good can it be?"
Because Poison Masters would use their own bodies to test drugs, most of them were neither human nor ghost.
The right side of the old man's face was completely necrotic.
In the end, he didn't care about his image at all, nor did he care if he would scare the children. He didn't even wear a mask.
When she saw it, she couldn't take it and fainted.
After he woke up, he vomited three times.
"Yes." Ying Zijin said calmly, "It's been many years."
When the Hidden Alliance was first established, the Poison Master Ranking was the first ranking.
She just wanted to play around and didn't tell the other three. Then, she accidentally got on the list.
And she only left Earth and didn't die.
So as long as no one could create a more powerful poison or cure her poison, the number one spot on the Poison Master Ranking List wouldn't change.
Ying Zijin pressed her head.
If it hadn't been mentioned, she would have almost forgotten that she had such a mess.
However, it was quite convenient that she didn't even know that she was number one on the Poison Master Ranking List.
"Sigh, I don't care." The fifth month was heartless. "What does it have to do with me whether the number one on the leaderboard is male or female, old or young? I can't even afford to eat, let alone meet the number one spot on the list. "
After saying that, she handed the three tickets in her hand to the ticket inspector at the entrance of the building.
The sharpshooters competed at the top of the building.
This was to prevent these sharpshooters from shooting randomly and damaging other equipment in a moment of excitement.
However, no sharpshooter dared to be impudent here. Until now, no hunter could see through the Hidden Alliance's overall strength.
Ying Zijin walked in and received a WeChat voice call from Old Mr. Zhong.
"Zijin, there's something." Old Mr. Zhong's voice deepened. "That child, Tianlu … knows about your identity. However, he's different from the other two. He really wants to make it up to you."
"He said that when you come back from your trip, he'll hold a banquet in Hu City to prove your identity."
Originally, when he found out that Ying Zijin was his biological granddaughter, he wanted to do this.
However, Family Ying didn't allow it.
He didn't want to do a paternity test and he refused to admit it.
There were a few people in the Zhong Family who wanted to keep an eye on them, so he was powerless.
However, with Ying Tianlu, it was different. He could prove it.
"No need, Grandpa. I don't need it." Ying Zijin's voice was very calm. "However, please thank him for me."
**
The Zhong Family Mansion.
Old Mr. Zhong put the phone on speaker. Ying Tianlu was beside him and naturally heard it.
He wanted to pick up the phone, but before he could say anything, the call was hung up.
Ying Tianlu stared at the table in a daze.
After a while, he spat out two words in a self-deprecating tone. "It's too late."
He was too late.
The damage had been done, and there was no way to make up for it.
He only hated himself for being a child at the time and not being able to do anything.
If it had been him, he would never have given up on finding Ying Zijin, nor would he have let her be replaced by another person.
However, by the time he had the ability to do so, it was already too late.
"Tianlu, Zijin knows that you're doing this for her own good." Old Mr. Zhong sighed and comforted him. "She also thanks you. Even if they can't be siblings, they won't be enemies."
Ying Tianlu pinched the space between his eyebrows and leaned against the sofa. He looked up and asked, "Grandpa, can I stay here for a while?"
He couldn't calm down. He didn't want to see anyone from Family Ying.
If he returned to his private apartment, Ying Yuexuan might run over to look for him.
But now, it was really difficult for him to feel close to her, and he wanted to avoid her even more.
"You can stay here." Old Mr. Zhong also knew that he wouldn't be able to calm down for a while, so he nodded and said, "If there's anything you need, just ask the servants."
Ying Tianlu stared at the ceiling for a while and suddenly remembered something. He turned his head and asked, "Grandpa, do you have Zijin's photos?"
"Yes, why?"
"Give me a few. I'll print them out and use them as my screensaver."
"You wish."
Ying Tianlu's expression froze. He raised his eyebrows and felt that it was ridiculous. "Grandpa, what did you say?"
"I said that you wish," Old Mr. Zhong snorted. "Why should my photos be your screensaver?"
"…"
Only then did Ying Tianlu remember that Old Mr. Zhong was also a video self-media blogger.
The method of editing the video was superb. It was able to cut the people in the two videos into one.
"Okay." In order to get his sister's photos, Ying Tianlu gave in to the evil forces. "What do you think?"
"Owe it to me first. We'll talk about it when the time comes." Old Mr. Zhong waved his hand and sent over the photos he had arranged.
Most of these photos were taken at the concert, and there were also some daily photos.
The girl's face was bare, her lips were light, and her eyes were like snow.
Even the side of her face was soul-stirring beauty.
Ying Tianlu looked at the photos, and the corners of his eyes turned red little by little. His throat was dry and uncomfortable.
He endured the bitterness in his heart and smiled. "My sister is so beautiful."
Old Mr. Zhong coldly interrupted him. "That's my granddaughter."
"…"
Ying Tianlu expressionlessly turned off his phone, picked up his black suit jacket, and went upstairs.
He lived here when he was a child, and there were many rooms in the old house, so it was always reserved for him to come over whenever he wanted.
The furnishings in the house did not change, and it was still the same as before.
Ying Tianlu supported himself with one hand on the bookshelf, took out the bank account number that Old Mr. Zhong had given him, and looked at it. Then, he opened his mobile bank account.
Then, he transferred all his savings over the years to Ying Zijin without hesitation.
**
On the other side of the ocean.
A "ding" sound was heard.
It was the notification of the transfer of 30 million yuan.
Ying Zijin looked at the attached message, and her eyes moved slightly.
[Sister, maybe I don't deserve to call you that, but I still want to call you that.
I'm sorry that I wasn't there to protect you when you were at your most difficult time.
I don't know what I can do now, so this is all I can do. Please don't return it.]
At the bottom of the message, Ying Tianlu was signed.
After a while, Ying Zijin sighed softly.
Fifth Moon heard it and turned her head. "Sister, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Ying Zijin closed the message and said indifferently, "It's a little troublesome, but it's not a big deal."
She had karma with Ying Tianlu, but it did not mean that she would be involved with Family Ying.
"What kind of trouble?" Fifth Moon scratched her head. "Can I help?"
"No need." Ying Zijin looked up. "Let's go in and watch the competition first."
The three of them went in and took the elevator to the top floor.
There was another group of people in the elevator.
Ying Zijin did not like to be too close to strangers, so she leaned against the corner of the elevator.
However, her hearing was very good, and she was not far away, so she naturally heard a sentence.
"Miss, the number one poison master has agreed to see us, but you need to bring the peacefulness flower to her."
