"Alright, we'll leave, can't we?"
Seeing Er Zhu about to leave, Song Renzhong quickly spoke. Er Zhu didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly.
Song Renzhong naturally understood Er Zhu's meaning. He waved his hand, and everyone instantly withdrew, even thoughtfully closing the door.
Seeing everyone leave, Er Zhu took out four copper coins. He sat cross-legged and murmured. The four copper coins shuttled through the guests, and soon, the蛊毒 (gu poison) on their bodies was dispelled by the true qi on the copper coins!
*Clink!*
Watching the various蛊虫 (gu insects) falling from the guests' bodies, Er Zhu nodded slightly.
At this moment, the four copper coins had already merged into Er Zhu's body, and the guests also woke up.
They felt as if they had had a nightmare. Looking at the mess around them, no matter how they thought about it, they couldn't figure out what had just happened. At this moment, the Song family members walked in.
"Mr. Song, what exactly happened just now? Why are my clothes torn?"
"Yes, you must give us an explanation for what happened today, otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"
"Song Renzhong, why is my arm broken? Why!"
...
Facing the guests' accusations, Song Renzhong was at a loss for how to explain. He could only turn to Er Zhu for help, but Er Zhu had already left.
He only wanted the Song family, and he couldn't be bothered to help them with the problems they encountered.
What's more, it was a problem of their own making!
In the blink of an eye, a week passed, and explosive news spread through Mingdu's high society:
Song Renzhong sold everything of the Song family, citing poor health, and took his family to live in seclusion in the mountains!
All the wealthy families found this news very surprising. They thought there must be a hidden reason, but after much investigation, they found nothing.
Three days later, another piece of news once again shook Mingdu: the person who acquired the Song family was Wang Er Zhu!
Wang Er Zhu had acquired two major wealthy families in Mingdu within three months, and his power shocked everyone!
Er Zhu, however, paid no attention to these rumors. He handed over the Song family to Elder Fang to manage and planned to return to Hua Bei City, but he received a challenge from Miao Jiang's蛊毒 (gu poison) master, Miao Ying!
She even threatened to make Er Zhu vanish into thin air under everyone's watchful eyes!
This news instantly caused a stir in Mingdu. All the members of wealthy families counted the days, waiting for this moment to arrive. Miao Ying had made thorough preparations, while Er Zhu had no preparations at all and had even returned to Hua Bei City.
"Er Zhu, why don't you not go back? I heard that蛊毒 (gu poison) technique is very powerful and can kill people invisibly!"
Standing at the door, thinking of the mysterious Miao Ying, Li Mei's eyes were full of worry.
"Yes, not only is Miao Ying proficient in蛊毒 (gu poison) techniques, but she is also skilled in other underhanded methods. Although your medical skills are superb, you are not her match."
As soon as Li Mei finished speaking, Elder Fang, who was beside her, also advised thoughtfully.
In fact, he had wanted to advise Er Zhu to stay for a long time, but he was afraid of offending Er Zhu, so he had held back until now.
"Er Zhu, you can't go back. Miao Ying is a monster who has been soaking in蛊虫 (gu insects) all year round. I heard that some people died just by talking to him. You absolutely cannot go back!"
Just as Er Zhu was about to speak, Wang Xiaomei ran forward, tightly grasping his arm, her eyes tearful as she looked at Er Zhu.
Ever since she learned about Miao Ying's challenge to Er Zhu, she had sent people to investigate Miao Ying's situation. The more she looked, the more frightened and worried she became!
Miao Ying, the most powerful蛊毒 (gu poison) master in Miao Jiang, was meticulous and ruthless!
Every year, countless people died at his hands, but the police could find no evidence!
These were not the main points. The main point was that no one had ever seen Miao Ying's true face!
This person appeared and disappeared without a trace. Some victims didn't even know who the killer was even after they died!
These words felt like steel knives piercing Wang Xiaomei's heart. She had made up her mind; even if Er Zhu got angry because of this, she would not let go!
"He's just a蛊毒 (gu poison) master, there's nothing to be afraid of. Don't worry, everyone."
Seeing their worried expressions, Er Zhu felt a warmth in his heart. He subtly shook off Wang Xiaomei's hand and smiled at them.
To ordinary people,蛊毒 (gu poison) was mysterious, and it was precisely because of this mystery that more people feared it.
However, his Feng Shui skills had already broken through the second level. People of Miao Ying's level were no match for him!
"No, you can't go. If you must go, you'll have to step over my dead body!"
Just as Er Zhu was about to get into the car, Wang Xiaomei, who had recovered, hugged him tightly, as if Er Zhu would die if she let go.
"Xiaomei, let go." Er Zhu pried Wang Xiaomei's hands open, his dark eyes staring intently at her, as if he could see through everything!
Wang Xiaomei had many things she wanted to say to him, but when she saw Er Zhu's eyes, the words at the tip of her tongue could only be swallowed.
His gaze was filled with unquestionable certainty, and she could not refute it!
Looking at Er Zhu's receding back, Wang Xiaomei instinctively wanted to chase after him, her eyes full of worry.
"Sister Xiaomei, why don't we go and watch that day? That way, even if Er Zhu gets hurt, we can still treat him in time."
Lin Qingqing clasped Wang Xiaomei's icy hands, gazing thoughtfully at the distant point.
Actually, when it came to worry, her concern for Er Zhu was no less than anyone else's. But she knew Er Zhu's personality, so she didn't insist on anything.
"Okay, let's all go. I'll make the arrangements."
Wang Xiaomei was too worried to speak. At this moment, Elder Fang stepped forward, scanned the crowd, and nodded slightly.
If it were in the past, Elder Fang would not have worried, but this time was different. Er Zhu was facing a蛊毒 (gu poison) master!
Er Zhu knew nothing about the art of蛊毒 (gu poison)...
Elder Fang sighed, his heart already in his throat.
News of Er Zhu accepting the challenge spread like wildfire in Hua Bei City. Many influential figures believed that Er Zhu was doomed to die and consequently canceled their collaborations with him. Although Sun Chenbin and Elder Fang tried their best to salvage the situation, none of them succeeded!
Er Zhu, however, did not care. He intended to use this so-called crisis to test people's hearts, which was also a good thing for him.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the challenge, and the appointed hotel was packed with people!
However, the two protagonists did not show up. Of course, it was possible that only one of them didn't show up!
Everyone present vigilantly observed those around them, trying to find the蛊毒 (gu poison) master Miao Ying, but after searching for a long time, they could not find her anywhere!
"Aren't these two messing with us?"
Seeing that the agreed-upon time was fast approaching, someone in the crowd suddenly thought of something and shouted loudly.
