Chapter 407: Refining the Antidote
"May I ask how the doctor discovered the poison?"
Nangong Yu asked seriously.
Xie Ling thought Nangong Yu was going to make trouble.
I didn't expect him to ask such a question.
"So, Young Master Nangong thinks the poison is real?"
Nangong Yu couldn't help but think of the scene he saw in Xu Haitang's dark room. Fear rose in his heart and he clenched his fists, "I believe it."
Xie Ling raised her eyebrows slightly, "Then who do you think is the one who poisoned the people?"
Nangong Yu fell silent.
After a long while, he replied: "You don't need me to tell you, the doctor knows the answer."
Xie Ling was thinking.
Nangong Yu should know that Xu Haitang is a goddess.
So, he knew that Xu Haitang had cast a curse on the people?
It seems that she really underestimated the family's investigative capabilities.
Nangong Yu continued to speak, this time with a very earnest look in his eyes, "Excuse me, doctor, do you have any method to cure the poison? If you can cure the people of Dongling, the Dongling Kingdom will not treat you unfairly."
Xie Ling chuckled, "That depends on whether the young master is willing to cooperate."
Nangong Yu nodded, "If the genius doctors need any medicinal materials, they can ask us directly. The Nangong family will definitely cooperate."
Xie Ling held up three fingers.
"Three requests. First, change our accommodation and remove the people who are monitoring us.
Second, change the treatment venue for us. We are currently in the livestock market in the west, and the venue is not suitable.
Third, since Young Master Nangong is so sincere, I will also speak frankly.
We already know that the goddess is Miss Nangong, and the medicine for the detoxification needs to be found from Miss Nangong. If you can't cooperate, then the young master can only ask someone else for the detoxification.
But I think that if I, Mingyue Island, can’t solve it, then there are probably few people in this world who can solve it.”
After Xie Ling finished speaking, she curved her lips into a smile and noticed the slightly changing expression on Nangong Yu's face.
She would not give Nangong Yu the chance to cover up for Xu Haitang and directly tore through the window paper.
Nangong Yu came back to his senses, "How did you find out?"
"That's not the point. The point is that you have to cooperate with me to get the antidote and punish the goddess. Master Nangong, are you unwilling?"
After saying this, Xie Ling turned around and wanted to leave.
"etc---"
Nangong Yu's voice was hoarse.
"I do. What does the Divine Doctor need?"
Xie Ling crossed her arms and said, "You can believe that the poison was planted by Xu Haitang. You must have seen the poisonous insects she raised, right?"
Nangong Yu didn't expect her to be so smart and nodded.
"Yes."
Xie Ling continued, "I want the mother insect, which is the largest one. It's not hard to find. Can you do it?"
Nangong Yu nodded, "It's not difficult."
"Other than that, everything is under my command."
Xie Ling's tone became cold and hard, "No matter what I do, don't interfere."
Nangong Yu paused for a moment and agreed.
Xie Ling narrowed her eyes.
"Then wait for good news from the young master."
On the second day, Xie Ling and his group moved to a new place, which was more comfortable than the inn arranged by Jingzhao Yin at the beginning.
The disciples were surprised.
Xie Ling told them Nangong Yu's words in a concise manner.
Yu Wei was cautious and asked, "That's his biological sister. Why is he so kind to help us?"
Xie Ling guessed: "Xu Haitang must have done other bad things that he discovered.
What's more, he has more than just the Nangong family behind him, there is also the royal family and the people of the entire Dongling."
In fact, Xie Ling didn't completely believe that Nangong Yu would stand on her side.
In any case, we must first obtain the mother Gu and make the antidote.
In the past few days, Xu Haitang's reputation has been gradually improving.
Xie Ling didn't care and even asked Zhang Minyan to stop spreading rumors.
After all, the higher you stand, the harder you fall.
For someone like Xu Haitang who values fame and fortune so much, bringing her to this earth is more painful than killing her.
On the third day, Nangong Yu handed the mother Gu to Xie Ling.
"Excuse me, doctor, how long will it take to make the antidote?"
Xie Ling took the wooden box.
"Half a day. Young Master Nangong, please help spread the word tomorrow so that all the people who have taken the Goddess's medicine can come to us to get the antidote."
Nangong Yu was stunned for a moment, but finally nodded.
Xie Ling couldn't help but ask, "What is Young Master Nangong going to do with the goddess in the end? The poison has killed many people in your Dongling."
Wei Linglong’s words suddenly echoed in Nangong Yu’s mind.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Of course I will handle it impartially."
Xie Ling cupped her hands, "Young Master Nangong is a man of high character and integrity."
After being praised like this, Nangong Yu inexplicably felt a sense of responsibility that he was trusted.
He said solemnly: "A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. Don't worry, I will not let the doctor down."
After Nangong Yu left, Xie Ling and others started to work non-stop to make medicine to detoxify.
It didn't even take half a day, but only two hours to develop it.
Now everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.
Just waiting for Nangong Yu to inform others about this matter.
Early the next morning, Xie Ling and others took the prepared medicine to the treatment center.
Today's clinic is located in the most prosperous area of Kyoto, surrounded by teahouses and bars.
At this time in the past, the place was already packed with guests and very lively.
But now, not only is there no one in front of the stall, it is terribly deserted.
Even the teahouses that were usually packed with people now only had a few ordinary people.
Xie Ling felt uneasy.
They even went out late on purpose to give Nangong Yu enough time to inform the people. How could this happen?
Could it be that... Nangong Yu broke the contract?
Just as I was thinking about it, a group of majestic and tall soldiers in black armor suddenly came from the front.
This group of soldiers are different from the guards around Xu Haitang. They are real elite soldiers.
He was two meters tall, covered in black armor, revealing only his eagle-like sharp eyes, and he was filled with murderous intent.
The moment they appeared, the whole street became very quiet in an instant, and even the sound of a fallen leaf falling to the ground could be heard.
The leading general walked up to Xie Ling, his voice full of majesty.
"Dear doctors, please bring out the antidote."
Xie Ling's heart sank.
Dog Nangong Yu, you are really a liar!
She knew that there was no way that black-hearted fox would not protect his own people!
Xie Ling clenched his fists tightly and stared coldly at the black-armored guard, "What if I say no?"
The Black Armor Guard had a calm expression, "I hope the doctor will cooperate. After all, the Black Armor Guard does not have a good reputation in the Seven Kingdoms."
"I can't give it to you! You are in cahoots with the fake goddess—"
Before Yu Wei could finish his words, a sharp arrow suddenly pierced the air, pierced through the wooden hairpin that tied his hair, and nailed the wooden board behind him.
In an instant, the three-finger-thick wooden board shattered into pieces.
Yu Wei's eyes widened and her hands couldn't stop shaking.
They have always learned medical skills and have never seen such cruel methods.
The black-armored guard who shot the arrow had an icy voice.
"Little doctor, there is a mosquito behind you. I will help you drive it away."
Yu Wei came back to her senses, her face flushed with anger, "How can this be! Even if I die, I will never—"
"Give!"
Xie Ling interrupted Yu Wei.
"We give!"
If she were alone, she could still get away.
But now there are so many disciples from Mingyue Island, and none of them know martial arts...
Xie Ling took out the antidote from her body and ordered sternly: "Take out all the antidotes!"
The disciples listened to Xie Ling very much.
Even though he was very reluctant, he still took out all the antidotes on his body.
The black-armored guard narrowed his eyes.
"That's it?"
Xie Ling sneered, "Do you think this antidote is cabbage? What, intimidation is not enough, you still want to search me?"
The black-armored guard looked everyone over with sharp eyes, then waved his hand and said, "Okay. Let's go."
"etc---"
Xie Ling walked forward and came in front of the black-armored guard who was shooting the arrow.
Before he could react, Xie Ling slapped him!
A muffled "bang" sound echoed in the quiet street!
Xie Ling’s palm strike was very ruthless.
Even through the armor, the man still fell back heavily and let out a muffled groan.
Xie Ling hid her red palms behind her back.
Smiling, but with no warmth in his eyes.
"Haha, I saw a mosquito on your face, so I helped you get rid of it. Do you mind?"
