Zhou Jie had just entered the Xiantian realm not long ago. His Houtian true qi had been converted into Xiantian true qi. Although the quality had improved, the quantity had inevitably decreased. Therefore, Zhou Jie could only force the poison in Honest Yang's body together, but he was unable to force it out of his body.
Zhou Jie did not want to give up halfway, so he forcefully channeled his True Qi into Honest Yang's body. Liu Ruoxin saw Zhou Jie sweating profusely and his body trembling slightly. She knew that he was running out of genuine Qi. She hurriedly put her palm on Zhou Jie's back and used her inner Qi to help him.
Zhou Jie was already at the end of his rope when suddenly, a majestic surge of true energy came from his back. Zhou Jie turned around and saw Liu Ruoxin helping him.
Seeing Zhou Jie still looking around, Liu Ruoxin shouted,""What are you looking at? Concentrate and concentrate on circulating your cultivation!”
Zhou Jie quickly withdrew his gaze after being shouted at by Liu Ruoxin. He didn't dare to think too much and concentrated on helping Honest Yang expel the poison.
Fifteen minutes later, Honest Yang's expression suddenly changed, and he fell to the side and vomited.
" Congratulations to the host for completing the mission: Activate your cultivation to expel poison.
[Reward: 50 Chivalry Points. Please pay attention to your reward.]”
Hearing the notification, Zhou Jie knew that he had successfully expelled the poison. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed in his heart."This might be the fastest mission I've ever completed, but it's really tiring!”
At this moment, Liu Ruoxin also stood up and rolled her eyes at Zhou Jie,""Why are you so overconfident! Didn't he know how dangerous it was to do this?”
Zhou Jie was embarrassed by Liu Ruoxin's words, but he also knew that she was concerned about him, so he could only scratch his hair and laugh awkwardly.
"Still laughing! You've only recovered for a few days. If I hadn't helped you just now, you would have been injured long ago. You really forget the pain after the scar is healed.”Liu Ruoxin became angrier as she spoke. In the end, she couldn't help but pinch Zhou Jie's waist.
Zhou Jie rubbed his waist and apologized,"Ruoxin, I know I was wrong. I also didn't expect that it would be so difficult to expel poison.”
Liu Ruoxin snorted and turned around, ignoring Zhou Jie. She covered her chest and said,""Why is my heart beating so fast? Am I worried about him? That's impossible. He's not even close to me.”The more Liu Ruoxin thought about it, the more conflicted she became. In the end, she couldn't help but clench her fists.
Zhou Jie saw that Liu Ruoxin had her back to him and thought that she was still angry. He hurriedly promised,""I swear, I won't do this again. Ruoxin, don't be angry anymore." As he said that, he pulled Liu Ruoxin's clothes.
Liu Ruoxin was pulled back to her senses by Zhou Jie. She turned around and said,""Don't forget what you said.”
Yang Yuxuan couldn't stand it anymore and shouted to the backyard,""Come out. We've already saved her.”
Zhu Yipin and the others returned to the lobby when they heard the news. Everyone surrounded Honest Yang and asked him about the poisoning.
Zhu Yipin took out a silver needle and tested it on Honest Yang's vomit."Indeed, it's arsenical poisoning.”Everyone was shocked when they heard that.
"Think about it carefully. What have you eaten recently?" Zhou Jie asked Honest Yang.”
Honest Yang replied," I eat my wife's cooking every day. She eats and sleeps with me. She's not poisoned. How could I be poisoned?" I think you guys are just a bunch of quacks."
"We saved your life. How could you say that?" Chen Anan retorted.”
Honest Yang ignored Chen Anan and struggled to get up. He knelt in front of Zhao Bensan and said,"When I was unconscious, I felt a warm current in my body. I guessed that it was Master who saved me. Please accept my bow." As he spoke, he was about to kowtow.
Zhao Bensan couldn't take it and hurriedly supported Honest Yang,""I didn't save you, it was Doctor Zhou.”
Zhou Jie saw Honest Yang was about to kneel down and hurriedly stopped him,"Don't kneel down yet. If you kneel down again, you'll fall again. At that time, we'll have to save you again. Think about it again. Have you eaten anything special recently?”
Honest Yang shook his head and said," I really can't figure it out. You said that I'm just a sesame seed cake seller. I have no desire or enmity with others. Who would poison me?!"”
Zhou Jie shook his head." That's difficult. I can save you this time." However, the person who poisoned him would definitely continue to poison him. If he did this again, even if a great immortal descended to the mortal world, he would not be able to stop him.”
"Hey!" "If that's the case, I'll reveal the secrets of the heavens again!" Zhao Bensan sighed.”
"That's fine too!" Zhu Yipin nodded. Yang Yuxuan quickly went to prepare the ingredients.”
"No, I can't! There's no need for that this time." Zhao Bensan smiled and stopped Zhu Yipin. Seeing that everyone was puzzled, he explained,"Actually, I've already drawn a portrait of the person who harmed him.”
"Master, you've already calculated it? Who is it?" Honest Yang asked in surprise.”
"It's the one I drew last night. Please take it out, Miss Anan." Zhao Bensan chuckled.”
"Isn't she Zhu Yipin's future wife? How did she become the one who poisoned her?" Liu Ruoxin asked curiously.”
"No, no!" Zhao Bensan shook his hand and said,"I know everything in the world with my heavenly eyes. I know everything in the past and the future, but it's inevitable that there will be some mistakes." What he saw that day was not about Doctor Zhu, but what Mister Yang wanted.”
"There's such a thing?" Chen Anan was full of doubts, but she still took out the portrait.
"Isn't this my wife?" Honest Yang was shocked when he saw the portrait. It can't be hers. She married me when she was fifteen and treated me very well. She knew that I liked cherries and bought them for me every day. She couldn't bear to eat one herself. If she wanted to harm me, do you think she would treat me so well?”
Zhao Bensan was certain." I saw a young woman holding a rice bowl last night. It was filled with maggots. That woman looked exactly like the person in the painting. There's no mistake."”
"Since that's the case, there's no point in saying more. Let's report this to the authorities!"”
The next day, the yamen interrogated the matter.
"Madam Yang," said the magistrate, patting the gavel,"I have a question for you." Fortune teller Zhao Bensan accused you of murdering your husband Honest Yang, is this true?”
"Daren has really wronged this woman. This woman usually wholeheartedly serves her husband. He worked hard outside, so I worked hard at home. My days were peaceful and beautiful. She couldn't even protect him in time, so how could she harm him? If something happens to my husband, the first one to suffer will be me, a woman without any skills! I hope you can make the decision."
The magistrate felt that it was reasonable and asked Zhao Bensan,""Zhao Bensan, let me ask you. You drew a portrait and accused Mrs. Yang of murdering her husband. Do you have evidence?”
Zhao Bensan said nervously,"Lord, only I can see this psychic technique. As for the evidence, I really don't have it."”
The magistrate was furious." After all this, it's all your own speculation. How do you expect me to settle the case?"”
Madam Yang heaved a sigh of relief when she heard that there was no evidence. She said proudly,"Daren, think about it. This woman usually eats from the same pot as husband and drinks from the same vat. How could it be possible that only husband was poisoned and this woman was fine? Please judge me, my lord."
The magistrate believed her and said angrily to Zhao Bensan,""Zhao Bensan, do you know your crimes?"
At this moment, Zhou Jie stood up and said,"Sir, can you listen to me?"”
"What do you want to say?" The magistrate asked Zhou Jie.”
Zhou Jie bowed to the magistrate and said,""Sir, I don't think that poisoning does not necessarily have to be done in food. The adults might not know that some foods were counterproductive. If they were taken at the same time, they would get food poisoning.”
Zhou Jie turned around and asked Honest Yang,""Honest Yang, tell me what you've been eating recently.”
Honest Yang thought about it and said,"I haven't eaten anything strange recently. It's all my wife's cooking."”
" Hmph!" The magistrate snorted coldly." You heard him. Honest Yang didn't eat anything else. I think Zhao Bensan is framing him on purpose."”
"Milord, don't jump to conclusions so soon.”Zhou Jie interrupted the magistrate and continued,""Last night, I found undigested fresh prawns in Honest Yang's vomit.”
The magistrate asked curiously," So what if it's fresh prawns? There are so many people who eat prawns in the world. Why haven't I seen anyone get poisoned?"”
" It's fine to eat prawns," Zhou Jie chuckled." But if you eat cherries while eating prawns, then there's a problem."”
"Yes, what's the problem?" Honest Yang hurriedly asked, afraid that the truth was as he thought.
"Everyone might not know this, but when prawns and cherries are eaten together, they produce an ingredient similar to arsenic-like substance," Zhou Jie said. Of course, eating a small amount of it would not kill anyone, but if someone deliberately gave it to others, then there would be a problem.”After saying that, Zhou Jie stared at Mrs. Yang.
"We've been husband and wife for many years. I've provided you with food and clothes, but you actually want to harm me!”Honest Yang knew the truth and looked at Mrs. Yang with disappointment.
Seeing that the matter had been exposed, Mrs. Yang said everything in her heart,"If I wasn't pregnant with my cousin's child, I wouldn't have married you in a moment of helplessness. Now, my cousin has come back to look for me. As long as I get rid of you, I can go far away with my cousin. Why don't you die?”As he spoke, he went forward and strangled Honest Yang's neck.
The magistrate slapped the gavel and said," How dare you commit such a crime in the court. Come and arrest this guilty woman and lock her up in prison for punishment."”
The constables on both sides grabbed Mrs. Yang and brought her away, leaving Honest Yang sitting in a daze for a long time.
This was just an interlude. Everyone returned to the medical center and continued to live their usual lives. However, after this incident, Zhao Bensan's reputation rose to fame. People on the streets and alleys were talking about how magical he was.
Zhou Jie finally had the time to rest. He contacted the system and said," System, accept the reward."
