"Come to think of it, it's a little too much to hate a 12-year-old kid like you. After all, you're relatively young. In addition, the second and third families have a righteous cause. Sometimes, I can understand why you don't say anything when you're in a difficult position. "I can ignore all of this. I can use my young age and insensible. In addition, I'm only a servant of the Lin family. It's not a big deal for me to suffer some grievances. Therefore, it's indeed my fault to hate you!”
"But you should never have trusted that old fox, Lin Yunhai. He's a real ingrate. This old man thinks I don't know what he has done. Hehe, he probably never thought that the messenger he often uses was secretly bribed by me. From him, I know the true colors of a hypocrite. Not only did this old fellow sell off all of the Lin family's businesses in secret, but he also obtained a large sum of money. I reckon that other than me and the deceased old master, no one else knows about this money.”
"This old fellow is really too deep. Not only does he have a son outside, but he also has his hands in the Lin family's last lifeline, the grain trading company, and wants to secretly control it. The grain trading company was such a big fat piece of meat that it had attracted too many flies and mosquitoes. This old fellow still wanted to continue being his loyal servant. If he were to directly attack, it would be too ugly. Such disloyal and unjust people would be excluded from any circle, so this old fellow could only plan slowly.”
"Old Master, Old Master, you're the real idiot! On the surface, you look like everything is under your control. No one dares to jump out and attack you. Even if some people are dissatisfied with you or secretly do something, it's just a small problem. It's all within the acceptable range. You probably didn't expect that such a drastic change would happen in your family when you reported to the underworld so early!”
"The second and third families, are they easy to deal with? All of them usually did not fight for anything. They looked very magnanimous, but in reality, they were all acting. Even Master was acting sometimes. It was just that your scenes ended early, and some things were no longer under your control. I reckon that if Old Master knew about this now, he would only be left with regret! Sometimes, reality is just so funny. You never know what will happen in a second. Other than that, what's more terrifying is the human heart. In this aspect, Master is far worse than Madam! Madam is truly a hero among women. She has arranged so many insurance for Young Master. If she hadn't died young, I definitely wouldn't have dared to come out and jump around!”
"Sometimes, you really can't judge a book by its cover. "Such a vicious wolf is hiding in the Lin family. Not only will I not be able to stand out if I stay here, but I also know some of this old fellow's secret dealings. If I am discovered by this old fellow, I'm afraid I won't be able to protect my life! As the young master of the Lin family, it was a great taboo to not be able to judge people well. What good ending can I have if I follow you? I might as well take advantage of Ruby's ship before it sinks and live a carefree life in my next life!”
"Young Master, have a safe journey! I know that there are people who test for poison for you every time before you eat. Although this is done secretly, as long as you observe carefully, you can still find it. But this time, even if you racked your brains, you wouldn't have thought that I would place the poison there. By the time the poison took effect, I would have already fled far away. Once you die, the entire Lin family will be in chaos. No one will care about my every move. Sigh, give me an idea. The schemes are really linked together. Fortunately, I killed him. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to sleep at night. Such a person was too terrifying. It would not be an exaggeration to cut these so-called strategists into pieces. However, I have to thank him this time. With his plan, I can easily get out of this matter! Sigh, I was born at the wrong time. Otherwise, I might be a warlord now, controlling the lives of tens of thousands of people…"
“……”
In this short moment, Ergou thought of many things and secretly said many things to these people. In another hour, he would be leaving this place. The next time they met, things would be the same and people would be different. Now, he said what he should say in his heart as a farewell to them. Although these people couldn't hear him, it didn't stop him from saying what he should say. He had been holding these words in his heart for one month, which made him feel really uncomfortable. After saying it out, he felt relaxed as if he had become an immortal. Of course, this was just an illusion.
The three of them brought the food into the house and immediately came out after putting it away. After saying goodbye to Lin Yuanshan, they prepared to leave the courtyard. Lin Yuanshan did not ask them to stay. After all, he did not know whether the food was poisoned or not. If he left them behind, it would only increase their suspicion and plant a seed of distrust in their hearts. It would take root and germinate in the future, and it was very likely to lead to serious consequences. It was better to check first. Suspicion could not be used as evidence. It needed to be verified with real evidence.
After these people left the courtyard, someone immediately closed the courtyard door. Lin Yuanshan asked No. 2 to follow him in. The two of them checked together, which was faster. He took out a pile of gold and silver jewelry from a box and picked out a few silver hairpins. He gave two to Number Two and took two for himself. He put the silver hairpins into the food to see if they were poisonous.
He checked all the dishes, including the steamed buns. He opened the steamed buns and checked them one by one. He did not find any problems. Just as Lin Yuanshan heaved a sigh of relief, a hidden system mission was triggered.
Ding!" Hidden mission triggered. Host is in a life and death situation. Host, please find the source of the crisis. Mission successful. Reward: 1 bottle of beginner gene strengthening drug. Mission failure, no penalty.”
"Fortunately, the system reminded me. Otherwise, I might really have a cake this time. However, I have already checked all the dishes and found no problems. So, what is the problem?”Although Lin Yuanshan had received the system notification, he was still puzzled. He felt that he had missed something important, but he could not remember it.
"What exactly is the problem?”Lin Yuanshan muttered to himself as he recalled some things. Otherwise, a scene would flash across his mind. It was often played in later TV dramas. Someone put poison on the bowls and chopsticks. In this way, it was not easy to be discovered.
"Would he put poison on the bowls and chopsticks and check them to see if there's anything wrong?”
" I remember the ancient dramas I've watched. There were too many tricks. There was a wine pot that could be rotated to poison someone. Some of them smeared the poison on a cup, and some of them smeared the poison on a handkerchief. The methods were often new and innovative. There was nothing that you could not think of and could not do. It was dazzling.”
"I've already checked the other places before and can confirm that there's no problem. Now, only the chopsticks and chopsticks that I want to use are left. If there's no poison in them, I can be sure that there's no problem with the food this time!”Lin Yuanshan couldn't help but want to curse. This bunch of losers could even come up with such a mean idea. If they were to become screenwriters, they would definitely be awesome.
"Okay, go get some water. Let's check if there's anything wrong with the cutlery.”
"Yes, sir! Do you need me to check the bowls and chopsticks that we used at the same time? I didn't check the bowls and chopsticks when I checked just now. I forgot to check the bowls and chopsticks.”
"Of course we have to check. Usually, very few people notice the bowls and chopsticks. This is a dark place. If we find that someone poisoned us this time, we must strengthen the inspection in this area in the future. We must not let any loopholes be allowed. This is a matter of life and death. If everyone was poisoned by the other party at once, no matter how strong your individual strength was, it would be useless. No matter how powerful a hero was, he would not be stronger than poison!”
"Send two people to secretly monitor them. If the three people in the kitchen discover that something is wrong, immediately arrest them. Don't give them a chance to escape. Chun Niang has been at home for so many years and has been in charge of my food. If something happened, it would have happened long ago. If she poisoned my food, it would be really impossible to guard against. Keep an eye on the other two and see which one of them did it?”Lin Yuanshan's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. If it was really poisonous, he would have to go on a killing spree this time. He needed to clean up the internal department. Sometimes, if he did not make a decision, he would be in trouble.
At this moment, someone at the door immediately passed down Lin Yuanshan's order. The next work of testing the poison was handed over to Number Two. He hoped that his guess was true, but he also hoped that his guess was not. He was very conflicted at this moment.
After a quarter of an hour, Number Two reported the results of the examination to Lin Yuanshan with the blackened silver needle. There were traces of highly toxic arsenium in the bowl he used, and there was no toxic reaction in the bowls and chopsticks of the ten of them, so it could be ruled out for the time being. After checking with a silver needle, he found that the chopsticks were not smeared with poison. It could be said to be a blessing in disguise.
One had to know that he had a habit in the modern world. He did not use a bowl when eating, except when drinking soup. This habit had always been retained. Even in this era, this habit had not changed. He really did not expect that even the heavens were helping him. A small habit could help him escape a calamity. However, the person hiding behind failed this time. He would continue next time and succeed one day.
