Chapter 288 Getting more and more interesting
"Four days ago, I followed Ye Qin to Zhao Mingyang's alchemy room and seemed to smell a strange smell." As she spoke, she flipped through the roster and took a look, as if she was looking for someone's name.
"It's him." Su Mu pointed at a name and looked at Su Mohui, "He is an expert in refining poisons within the church."
"Zhao Ziyi?" This name sounds familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere.
With a "snap", Su Mu closed the roster, looking a little excited, as if he had eaten a shocking piece of news.
"Sir, I remember now. Zhao Ziyi joined our church in January of this year. He seems to be somewhat related to Zhao Mingyang, but it doesn't seem to be a particularly close relationship. Until July of this year, when Zhao Mingyang saved his life, he has been researching a poisonous weed called Fragrant Erosion Grass."
Fragrant erosion grass? This poisonous grass... But each plant is worth a fortune, so these two people are willing to give it up.
When this grass is in the soil, it emits a unique fragrance that attracts some spiritual beasts or demonic beasts to salivate. But when it is pulled out by the roots, this grass will hide the fragrance completely like a mimosa.
If it is refined into pills or medicines, the fragrance will be much lighter, but the toxicity will increase exponentially.
And its most obvious toxicity is drowsiness!
But there is one thing, the only harm this fragrant grass does to the human body is diarrhea, but to high-level demons or mythical beasts, it will be ten times more harmful!
The system has sharp ears. Ever since Qin Shu said that she was sleepy, it has started checking the small map.
The result is obvious. Several high-level demons have been tricked inside the church, and one of them is the spy that Su Yu'an left for Ye Qin.
But more often than not, Zhao Mingyang and his alchemy apprentices suffered from frequent diarrhea.
When he told Su Mohui this information, this sesame dumpling became suspicious. Zhao Ziyi was instructed by Jiao Yi and Zhao Mingyang to take action against Su Yu'an's spies and Qin Shu.
Or...is Zhao Ziyi using this incident to avenge himself?
Things are getting more interesting.
...........
Ji Shanru, who was far away in the Forest of Monsters watching his subordinates perform, was thinking the same thing at this moment.
Ever since she loudly announced to the whole city that she was terminally ill, those evildoers started to take action. Now they are so bold that they have sent the spies of the devil's den right in front of her.
But Ji Shanru had predicted his prediction. The spy in the Demon Cave had long been one of his own, so it was not surprising that he appeared under his seat at this moment.
However, the other person brought by the spy caught her attention.
"King, the one behind me is the winner of this Demon Cave Tournament. His name is Ye, the Night of Darkness."
"Oh?" Ji Shanru straightened herself up, her eyes narrowed slightly, "Are you the Lord Ye they were talking about?"
Hearing this unfriendly tone, Ye straightened his body, and felt his blood boiling as he bowed. "Your Majesty, I dare not reply."
Ji Shanru laughed heartily and looked at the young man in black clothes in front of him. "It's just a joke, you don't mind, right?"
Ye still maintained his saluting posture, making it impossible to see the expression in his eyes, and responded in a deep voice: "I dare not."
"No need to be polite." Ji Shanru waved his hand and returned to his nonchalant demeanor, his gaze fixed on his eyeliner. "Well done, take him down."
After the last syllable, the spy stood up, bowed respectfully, and left with the silent Ye.
When their figures disappeared from the hall, the group of traitors outside the screen began to act again.
Looking at the group of people crying and wailing, she gave a look to the people around her, and then a group of people carrying medicine boxes came in from the side door and took her pulse one by one.
As expected, all the doctors who were touted as "famous doctors" and "medical saints" frowned, shook their heads, stood up tremblingly, and their faces were full of helplessness.
Seeing these doctors walking out dejectedly one after another, Ji Shanru just felt funny in his heart.
She is the king of all monsters. She borrowed someone else's body to be reborn. Wouldn't it be easy for her to change her pulse?
If there really is something wrong... the worst that could happen is she can just go back to the Ninth Heaven. The last time she reincarnated, she met a real "Medical Immortal" in the Ninth Heaven.
He was so handsome that it was inhumane! Ji Shanru blushed just thinking about it.
However, that person didn't seem to be an ordinary person. The aura he exuded was powerful, and there was a faint trace of divine power.
Ji Shanru didn't point it out directly, but instead pretended to be stupid and made friends with the other person.
Back to the topic.
After all the doctors and physicians had examined her pulse today, she asked the servants to move the screen away, and she leaned weakly on the chair with a blanket over her legs.
"My dear ministers... cough cough cough, you have worked hard today, cough cough cough..." Ji Shanru was weak at the right time, and his fair face turned red due to the constant coughing, and he looked very painful.
"Zhao...ahem...Zhao Lian..., please help me see these beloved ministers off, and by the way..." Before she could finish her words, she tilted her head at the right time and fainted.
When the ministers in the audience saw her faint, the smiles on their faces disappeared instantly, and their eyes became more greedy. They completely ignored the expression of Ji Shanru's confidant Zhao Lian and strode out of the hall with their hands behind their backs.
Immediately afterwards, the sharp-eyed and perceptive servant saw this scene and his face changed slightly. He hurried out of the side door, stumbling along the way while shouting without thinking: "Imperial Physician! Call the Imperial Physician! His Majesty has fainted from anger!!"
Completely disregarding the lives of those who had just come out of the palace, the shouts resounded throughout the palace.
However, it seemed that these servants were in a hurry and no one stopped these "beloved ministers". Instead, they were forced to look back every step of the way out of the palace.
Ji Shanru listened to the noise outside and didn't care whether the imperial physician in the palace rushed here in a hurry. He went straight back to the inner hall, pulled the curtain, and took out a shiny round mirror.
She reached out and gently stroked the embossed pattern on the edge of the mirror, a hint of joy on her lips. "Let me see what you are capable of. Don't let down this grand show I have set up for you..."
As soon as the words fell, a picture suddenly appeared in the round mirror.
In the mirror, there was a picture of a young man in a black robe fleeing. Behind him were countless monsters with bloody mouths, as if they were going to tear the person in front of them into pieces and devour them in the next second.
But something happened that made Ji Shanru unable to hold back the smile on her face. A slightly intelligent monster suddenly gathered its strength and pounced towards the young man.
But at this moment, the black-robed youth disappeared from the spot in a flash, leaving only a group of monsters staring at each other with their eyes wide open and their noses pouting, searching for his scent in the air.
