"From now on, you need to provide me with all the medicinal herbs I need unconditionally, otherwise you will die."

She took out five black pills, but this time they were not the dregs from the previous alchemy.

No, it was also the dregs of alchemy, but she added real poison to it.

He Chao fed them the medicine. In an instant, all five of them turned pale with pain and rolled on the ground in agony.

"Miss, you won't dare to do that again. We're willing to do anything you ask us to do."

An old man couldn't stand it anymore and begged for mercy.

Zhong Ran watched coldly as the five people rolled around for a long time. Their clothes were all soaked with sweat, and there was a fishy smell on the ground.

She then took out the antidote and asked He Chao to feed it to them.

"From now on, ask He Chao for a detoxification pill every month, otherwise you will die."

"This poison will inflict pain on you for seven days and seven nights. You will watch helplessly as your intestines rip and your stomach rip apart, your flesh and blood slowly rotting away into bloody liquid, leaving only a skeleton."

"Even if you are left with only a skeleton, you will still be conscious. Only when all your bones have turned to blood will you be completely dead."

After she finished speaking, not only the five medicinal material merchants, but even He Chao and others took a deep breath, and the panic in their eyes could not be concealed.

Oh my god, she is indeed worthy of being called the Demon Grandma. This is too cruel.

Do you want to watch your whole body turn into blood?

Moreover, it doesn't turn into blood immediately, but it takes seven whole days. Who can endure that kind of pain?

He Chao, Jiang Zihong and others couldn't control their bodies from shaking.

At this time, they had no time to think about it carefully. The poison in their bodies was different from the poison in the herbal medicine merchant.

They were completely frightened by Zhong Ran's words and almost lost their minds.

After the five herbal medicine merchants had their poison removed, they seemed to have been fished out of the water.

They never dreamed that after doing something they had done so many times before, they would hit a wall this time, a wall that they could not bear.

"The servant knows."

Just thinking about that kind of death made their scalps tingle, as if their scalps had started to turn into blood.

"Very good. Remember to send all the herbs I need, including the best ones that are over a hundred years old, to He Chao in the future."

After saying that, she got up and walked outside without stopping.

The way of death I just mentioned was just to scare them.

However, she believed that no one in this world could detoxify the poison brewed by Xiao Ding, so she was completely fearless.

No one dared to try and see if it would really be that way to die.

It can be said that she has a firm grasp on these people's fear of death.

Zhong Yan followed him like a little follower, without saying a word, but now no one dared to look down on him anymore.

He Chao and the others glared at the five herbal medicine merchants and said, "Send the herbs over today, or you will bear the consequences."

After saying that, he quickly caught up with Zhong Ran. His servile appearance was so unbearable to look at.

Coming out of the herbal medicine vendor, Zhong Ran said to He Chao calmly, "You don't have to follow me. If you still can't do the rest, I'll consider replacing you."

He Chao and others were trembling in fear, because the result of replacing people would be their death.

After all, they already knew the secret of the Demon Grandma. If they were no longer able to use her power, death would be their fate.

"Don't worry, Grandma Yao, we will do it well."

In a hurry, he even shouted out his thoughts.

Fortunately, Zhong Ran didn't listen carefully, otherwise...

Well, she actually doesn’t care at all about how others look at her or call her.

She ignored them and left with Zhong Yan.

She agreed to take him out for some delicious food.

After leaving He Chao and the others, she asked Zhong Yan, "Xiao Yan, did you feel uncomfortable after what happened just now?"

Zhong Yan was like a child who had done something wrong: "Sister, I just can't stand them bullying you."

Zhong Ran turned her head to look at him, and seeing his expression, her heart softened: "Sister doesn't mean to blame you, but I'm just worried that it will be bad for your health if it lasts for a long time."

Seeing that his sister did not blame him but was just worried about his health, Zhong Yan smiled brightly.

"Sister, I don't feel uncomfortable at all. On the contrary, I feel very comfortable. It feels like the blood in my body is boiling."

Zhong Ran guessed that it might be because it was just the beginning, so he didn't feel much yet.

She whispered, "If you feel uncomfortable in the future, you must stop immediately. Don't joke with your life."

"You are the only relative I have left."

As for that scumbag father Zhong Qingshan, she didn't even consider him as a relative.

"Sister, I will."

His sister is his only relative, and he will cherish her well.

Zhong Ran chuckled: "Come on, sister will take you to eat delicious food."

After a pause, she added, "I won't be fooled again this time."

The last time we had a meal, the portions were small and the prices were high. I ended up spending over three thousand taels for the entire meal.

There are only two of them. Who would believe it if it got out?

Zhong Yan raised the corners of his lips in a silent arc, and looked at her with eyes full of tenderness.

Zhong Ran didn't pay attention to him, and the brother and sister looked at him as they walked.

She was not familiar with the capital, and she had forgotten to ask He Chao which restaurant had better food.

Finally, she saw a restaurant with the most people and walked in, thinking that since it had the most people, the food must be the best.

There were a lot of people inside, at least from what she could see, there was no room left.

"You two..."

The waiter came over and wanted to ask them to wait, but after seeing how the two were dressed, his expression changed.

"Excuse me, both of you. Our restaurant is full today. How about you go somewhere else?"

After the last incident, all the major restaurants have inquired about this pair of siblings.

As for this veiled girl and a thin boy, although they are young, they are big eaters.

Not only can they eat, but they also want to eat more after finishing their meal.

Which restaurant would be willing to receive such a person?

But the other party seemed to have a close relationship with King Ning, and they didn't want to offend them before they found out their identities to King Ning.

If they were really asked to go to Prince Ning's mansion to settle the accounts, they would be somewhat afraid.

So the best outcome is not to receive them.

Zhong Ran saw that every table on the first floor was occupied, so he turned around and left without making things difficult.

There was also a restaurant across the street. She turned around and took Zhong Yan over there.

When the waiter saw her walking by, he stood over there and looked at her curiously.

There were also quite a few people in the restaurant over there, but there were still two or three empty tables.

Zhong Ran was about to take Zhong Yan to an empty table inside, but was stopped by the waiter with quick eyes and hands.

"Miss, Sir, I'm so sorry, we don't have any seats here."

Zhong Ran's eyes moved slightly: "Aren't there three empty tables over there?"

The waiter apologized with a smile: "Miss, I'm so sorry, those are all reserved in advance."

Zhong Ran looked over there, then looked at him, said nothing more, and turned around and walked out with Zhong Yan.
