I survive in the weird Liaozhai

Chapter 19: Damn, this wine is poisonous

Manager Tang waved his hands repeatedly upon hearing this.

"Don't blame me, don't blame me. It's my honor that Taoist Nian An found me for something. Just open your mouth. I, Fatty Tang, will never frown."

Ha! How dare I blame him? He is just a lunatic.

How could someone ask someone for help like this? They feed you poison before you even open your mouth to ask.

This is something a human can do. The person in front of me is a living devil.

Gu Nian'an smiled and looked at the trembling fat man in front of him.

"Manager Tang is very generous. After I finish the job, I will definitely offer you the antidote with both hands and apologize solemnly."

"Then could you please ask Steward Tang to send over a pot of warm wine and ten cups?"

...Manager Tang???

What was going on? However, he didn't dare to refuse. His life was in someone else's hands, so he had to do whatever the other person said.

"Master Nian An, wait a moment. I will arrange it right away."

Manager Tang responded and hurried out the door, but just as he reached the door.

Gu Nian'an's faint words came from behind him

"Brother Tang, I personally developed this poison so I am the only one who has the antidote. You must think clearly about the consequences before you act. Brother Tang and I have no grudges against each other, but I don't want to see anything unpleasant happen."

Hearing the words of the young man behind him, Tang Ziren couldn't help but tremble.

Then he turned his head and forced a smile

"No, no, I won't make things difficult for Taoist Nian An. I, Fatty Tang, am an honest person."

After saying this, he quickened his pace and ran out of the room without waiting for Gu Nian'an's response.

...Gu Nian'an

Looking at Manager Tang who was running very fast, Gu Nian'an let out a long sigh.

Ugh!

He doesn't want to be a bad guy, but sometimes he has no choice.

However, it seems that Manager Tang is a person who values ​​his life and will not do anything out of line.

What Gu Nian'an hated most was people who didn't take human life seriously, like Song Qingshan, who was stubborn, stubborn and difficult to deal with.

After a while, Manager Tang, sweating profusely, ran back with a tray in his hand. On the tray were a pot of warm wine and ten cups.

Gu Nian'an took the tray from Manager Tang and looked at him with a smile.

"Brother Tang is efficient in his work, but I don't know if he will add some weird things to the wine."

"I've studied medicine since I was a child, so I'm very sensitive to herbs and such, so I should be able to tell them apart."

...~ Manager Tang...~ Manager Tang,

He immediately broke out in a cold sweat and waved his hands quickly.

"I dare not, I dare not, I am a very honest man, a very honest man."

After explaining, Manager Tang quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Gu Nian'an ignored the fat man who was about to cry and took out seven or eight white lotus seed candies from his arms.

He opened the wine jug and threw all the wine in with a "tip, tip, tip". Then he gently shook the jug in his hand and waited for a moment before filling all ten cups with wine one by one.

After doing all this, Gu Nian'an turned around and looked at Manager Tang, who was sweating profusely. There was a hint of smile in his voice.

"I'd like to trouble Brother Tang again. You are familiar with the Li Mansion. Can you help me find seven or eight strong Li family guards? I need to discuss something with them."

He lowered his head slightly and glanced at the ten glasses of wine already filled on the table.

Manager Tang hesitated for a moment before he trembled and asked

"Master Nian An, this... isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

He understood what Gu Nian'an did, which made him speechless.

This Taoist priest might be a soul-collecting messenger sent by the King of Hell to claim his life.

"No"

The Soul Catcher is not as scary as him. The Soul Catcher can only take away one person at most at a time. But he is different. Is he going to take away a group of people directly?

The boy's actions really opened his eyes to the knowledgeable him.

Gu Nian'an looked at Manager Tang in surprise, and unexpectedly he turned out to be a good man with some conscience.

So Gu Nian'an's tone became a little kinder.

"Manager Tang, don't worry. I, Gu Nian'an, am not a crazy person. I have prepared enough antidotes."

...Manager Tang, Manager Tang???

Is this a fucking antidote?

"Ugh!"

Forget it, forget it. There’s nothing to say now that my life is in someone else’s hands.

Tang Ziren is not alone. He has elderly parents and young children to take care of. He can't afford to get into trouble now.

"Ugh!"

I just hope this living devil still has some humanity.

Tang Ziren walked out of the room dejectedly with his head down. Not long after, he came back with seven strong men.

Looking at the person coming, Gu Nian'an was speechless. This was really fate. He met an acquaintance.

Ignoring the gatekeeper who winked at him, Gu Nian'an clasped his fists to everyone.

"My dear brothers, I am here to ask for your help. Don't worry, you will be well rewarded."

After Gu Nian'an finished speaking, everyone looked at each other, and finally the gatekeeper stood up.

"Master Nian'an is a capable man. We admire him very much. If you have anything to ask, just tell us. We will do our best to complete it."

"It's just that ~...~ our abilities are limited. If it's against ghosts or something like that, we can't be of much help."

Gu Nian'an smiled and waved

"No, no, it's just a little effort, there's no danger."

Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It was okay to just exert some strength. They had nothing but strength.

As long as it doesn't have anything to do with ghosts or anything like that, everything is fine.

The gatekeeper stepped forward and patted his chest to assure

"Master Nian'an's business is our business. As long as Master Nian'an asks, we will definitely handle the matter for you."

After seeing the gatekeeper agree on behalf of everyone, Gu Nian'an didn't say much. He picked up the tray and handed each person a glass of wine. He raised the glass and drank it all before speaking.

"Then I'll trouble you all."

When everyone saw Gu Nian'an drink it all in one gulp, they all raised their glasses and started drinking without hesitation. They sipped it once, twice, and then tasted it carefully again. This wine was really good and sweet.

Manager Tang stood silently by with a wry smile on his face.

"Ugh!"

I just hope I can save my life after they know the truth.

He can accept a beating as long as he can stay alive. He has elderly parents and young children to take care of, and nothing can happen to him.

Seeing that everyone had finished their drinks, Gu Nian'an had no intention of speaking, but just looked at everyone with a smile.

In the end, the gatekeeper was the first to step forward and ask

"Master Nian'an, I don't know what you want us to do."

"Hey! Didn't I just say that? Look at my memory, it's nothing, just digging a grave."

…Everyone???

...Manager Tang???

...the gatekeeper???

The gatekeeper looked at the young man in front of him with some doubt.

"Master Nian'an, what you are talking about is..."

Without waiting for the gatekeeper to finish his words, Gu Nian'an confirmed his guess.

"Yes, that's right. It's the one you think of, the one that was buried two days ago."

Upon hearing this, everyone took a step back and looked at Gu Nian'an as if he were a monster.

Is this Taoist priest crazy?

Does he know what he is talking about? Don’t you know how evil that coffin is?

It was not easy to get him sent away, and now you want to invite him out again. You must be taking the wrong medicine.

The gatekeeper looked at the boy who didn't seem to be joking, then looked at the people around him, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Master Nian'an, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. It's not that we are not righteous, but we really don't dare to help you."

"Master Nian'an, you may not know yet, but the brothers who carried the coffin last time are still lying in bed. We have hired a doctor and taken medicine, but they are not getting better. It's obvious that they are dying. We really don't have the energy to help you."

Seeing everyone refuse, Gu Nian'an was not surprised. After all, it was human nature to avoid such things if possible, but there was nothing he could do.

Gu Nian'an bowed to everyone

"I know this may be difficult for you, but there is nothing we can do about it, so I can only trouble you all."

...~...Everyone

Doesn't this Taoist priest understand what people say? Wasn't their rejection direct enough? Is this a job that a human can do? Are they trying to kill themselves?

After hearing Gu Nian'an's words, the gatekeeper's face turned cold and he continued to refuse patiently.

"We really can't help you with this matter, please don't make things difficult for us, Taoist Priest."

"Ugh!"

Gu Nian'an sighed and his expression gradually turned cold. Without saying much, he silently took out a piece of candy from his arms, took two bites, and then swallowed it.

…Everyone???

What kind of operation is this?

Gu Nian'an glanced at everyone present with cold eyes, and spoke in an unusually indifferent manner.

"I poisoned the wine. If you drink it, your blood will flow backwards and your body will explode and die."

"By the way, Steward Tang was the one who poisoned me. If you don't believe me, you can ask him."
