New Return of the Pearl: The Group's Pet Swallow Flies
Chapter 216: Undoing the poison
Everything went according to plan. Yongqi and Erkang rode their horses and quickly found a nearby big city. They immediately contacted the local officials and asked them to quickly send people to appease the frightened people. At the same time, they told the officials the truth of the matter, emphasizing that it was the Japanese pirates who confused the people and brought them harm.
The people were shocked when they heard the news, but they trusted Yongqi and Erkang's words very much. After all, Yongqi and Erkang were both sons of the scholar's mansion and important figures in the court. Their words were naturally authoritative, and many people saw that they were the ones who saved them, so they trusted them even more, not to mention that the two sons also found officials to explain and explain to them.
In addition, the people had always heard about the existence of the Japanese pirates, and knew that they were a group of cruel and ruthless pirates who often wreaked havoc in coastal areas, robbed property, and killed innocent people. Therefore, when they heard that this incident was caused by the Japanese pirates, the people were angry and terrified.
However, as Yongqi, Erkang and the officers and soldiers explained the truth to them, the people's emotions were stabilized. They began to believe that this incident was not directed at them personally, but that the Japanese pirates wanted to destroy the stability and prosperity of the country. As a result, the people expressed their willingness to support the court, fight against the Japanese pirates together, and defend their homes.
Thanks to the efforts of Yongqi and Erkang, the situation was gradually brought under control. They successfully calmed the people, and the number of families crying in the town gradually decreased. In addition to the sadness for the loss of their family members, everyone also had trust in the court, knowing that the court would never sit idly by.
After finding the herbs Xiaoyanzi needed, Ertai rushed back to the inn. After studying with Xiaoyanzi and the others for a day, he finally found some clues when night fell.
After a sleepless night of hard work, Xiaoyanzi finally developed a magical poison. This poison is specifically targeted at Gu worms and will not cause any harm to the human body. It can be easily dissolved in water and then drunk by people. Once drunk, people will immediately feel their stomachs churning and then they will want to vomit uncontrollably. Along with the vomit, the disgusting Gu worms are also excreted from the body. In this way, the people no longer have to worry about being harmed by Gu worms.
However, Xiaoyanzi did not hastily give the poison to the people for trial. After all, it was related to the safety of countless people's lives. If something unexpected happened, the consequences would be disastrous. So, she decided to find a person who had been poisoned by the Gu worm to test it. Although she found a solution based on the Gu worm book, she was still worried that the drug might not be effective or too strong, thus causing harm to the human body.
Time passed by, night gradually fell, the sky gradually darkened, and the moon hung high in the sky, casting a soft light. As the night deepened, Xiaoyanzi realized that it was already late, and she decided to leave the matter until tomorrow.
Ziwei stood aside, looking at Xiaoyanzi with heartache. She was so focused on studying the medicine that she seemed to have forgotten everything around her. Ziwei noticed that Xiaoyanzi was no longer as restless and active as before. Now she could focus on one thing for a long time, and even sit there motionless for a whole day. Ziwei was relieved by this mature and steady change, but at the same time she felt pity for her.
Xiaoyanzi noticed Ziwei's gaze, raised her head, and smiled at her tiredly. Then, she stood up, stretched her body, and walked to the small room next to her, where there was a wooden barrel with a lot of hot water in it, which was prepared by Ertai in advance. She didn't want to think too much now, she just wanted to take a good bath, relax her body and mind, and enjoy a moment of peace and comfort.
Ziwei had already sent everyone back to rest. When they learned that Xiaoyanzi had successfully developed an antidote, they finally felt relieved. Because tomorrow they just needed to find someone to do an experiment, and if there were no problems, the people could use it without worry. Hearing this news, everyone felt relieved and went back to their rooms to rest.
After all, everyone was very tired and needed a good rest. After taking a bath and changing into pajamas, Xiaoyanzi lay on the bed with Ziwei, ready to have a good sleep.
The next morning, Xiaoyanzi woke up early. After she and Ziwei washed up, they went downstairs. Today the town had regained its former bustle. Although many families were still sad because of the loss of their family members, life had to go on. Except for a few families who hung white flags at their doorsteps, everyone else had returned to normal.
After Xiaoyanzi and the others had finished their meal, they found the official who was temporarily in charge of the town and asked him to find several people of different ages who had been poisoned by the poisonous insect. She would sprinkle her medicine into the water and let them try to see if it could detoxify them.
She was confident in her medical skills and abilities, but for safety reasons, she still had to conduct experiments in advance. Before the experiment, she also said to the four people of different genders and ages in front of her, "I have just developed this medicine, which can be dissolved in water. After you drink it, you will feel abdominal pain and want to vomit. Don't hold it back, just spit it out directly, and the poisonous insect will be vomited out with it.
After all, this medicine has just been developed and has not been tested. You are the test subjects I found. I don’t know whether it has any effect or what effect it has. Let me make it clear that no matter what the situation is, I will definitely protect your lives, so you don’t have to worry too much. Moreover, you can get a silver ingot for your test, regardless of whether the medicine is successful or not. Are you willing?"
There will always be a brave man under a huge reward. Xiaoyanzi has known this truth for a long time. However, for the sake of hundreds of people in the whole town, she can only find these four people who were infected with the poisonous insect to experiment. However, whether it works or not, she will give them the due reward.
In a small courtyard, Xiaoyanzi, Ziwei, Erkang, Ertai, Yongqi, Benjamin, Qianyue, Luo Junchen, Anyaxin and others stood on one side, and opposite them were officials and four people of different ages.
An older man, a sick woman, a cute little boy, and a weaker woman.
There are almost four types of people, namely the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled. If they can successfully remove the poisonous insects, then there will definitely be no problem for the others.
When the four heard that there was a silver ingot as a reward, their eyes lit up with excitement. They believed that their lives would not be lost. At most, they would feel uncomfortable for a while. They could get a silver ingot in such a short time. They were really lucky. The four nodded excitedly and prepared to drink the bowl of drugged water.
Xiaoyanzi and others stared at them intently, wanting to see if they had any special reactions.
The four of them drank the bowl of water at the same time, and soon they began to have reactions. They covered their stomachs with grim expressions, then hunched over to hide to the side, and began to vomit violently into several wooden barrels on the ground. When they stood up, their faces were as white as paper.
