Marrying a concubine and swallowing her dowry? The mistress turns around and marries a high-ranking

Chapter 557

Shen Lingjun felt a chill run down her spine.

"Who are these people you used to feed the Gu poison?"

Fu Shiyan said calmly, "Don't worry, I won't kill civilians indiscriminately, and I don't want to cause trouble for 'Naihe'. These are all slaves I bought."

Shen Lingjun's words, "Isn't the life of a slave a life?" stuck in his throat.

According to current laws, buying a slave means buying the slave's life as well, and you can do whatever you want with them without any problem.

However, this does not mean that all of this is reasonable or acceptable.

Fu Shiyan said, "I don't want to kill so many people because of Yu Chen poison, so I invited Madam Shen over to see if there is a way to completely cure the poison."

Shen Lingjun gritted his teeth, knowing that this was exactly the reaction he had predicted.

From Mo Zhonggui's perspective, she didn't want to cure Fu Shiyan's poison; but as a healer, she simply couldn't do it, standing idly by when there was a possibility that so many people could avoid such a tragic death.

Shen Lingjun squeezed out the words through gritted teeth: "Okay... show me this prescription for medicine made with Gu worms, and I'll see if I can improve it so that it can completely detoxify."

Fu Shiyan smiled slightly: "Of course."

Back at the top of Mount Naihe, Shen Lingjun looked at the prescription and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Although the sins committed were too heavy, this prescription was indeed powerful. No wonder it was said to be able to suppress all kinds of strange and deadly poisons in the world.

After some thought, she realized that the Feather Poison she had created was indeed difficult to cure, but with this formula as a foundation, she had a breakthrough. She could improve upon it and create a more targeted formula for Feather Poison, which should be able to completely cure the poison.

But what will Mo Zhonggui think?

Years ago, she unknowingly cured Fu Shiyan of the Feather Poison once; and now, even though she knows everything, she still wants to cure Fu Shiyan of the Feather Poison again.

Shen Lingjun tried her best not to think about Mo Zhonggui's reaction. She didn't regret her decision. Even if she didn't help Fu Shiyan, he already had a formula to suppress the poison. As long as he could raise Gu worms to make medicine for a lifetime, he could still live a long life. What she did was simply to save thousands of people from a tragic death.

She dared not do anything to Fu Shiyan now, otherwise, even if she managed to kill Fu Shiyan on the territory of the Naihe Mountain people, she would definitely die immediately. She wouldn't have enough lives to escape.

But she knew that Mo Zhonggui would definitely come looking for her, and before she escaped, she would see if she could act according to circumstances.

Shen Lingjun began to improve the formula. At first, a large number of Gu worms were needed to prepare the medicine for the experiment. Shen Lingjun had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue. If he succeeded, he would not have to kill so many people.

She stayed on Mount Naihe for more than a month.

Thanks to her improved antidote for the Gu worms, the poison in the Talisman Master's banquet can now be gradually neutralized. Eventually, there will be no need to buy so many living people to feed the Gu worms.

However, the mountains were completely isolated from the outside world, and she was basically unaware of any news or changes happening outside.

She was free to move around in most parts of Mount Naihe. Even a random young boy sweeping the roadside was a peerless master who could kill her with a single finger, so he probably figured she wouldn't dare to do anything.

Moreover, the assassins of "Naihe" are particularly skilled at infiltration and surveillance, and she still dares not easily use her spatial abilities, for fear of being discovered.

Fu Shi Yan didn't impose any restrictions on her, as if he already considered her a member of Naihe Mountain.

Every so often, a group of children around five years old are sent to Mount Naihe. These children are the new assassins that Naihe is preparing to train.

"Unfortunately," some people specifically search for children with martial arts talent. These selected children all have exceptional aptitude, but usually only one out of every twenty can be kept.

The selection process is like raising poisonous insects, forcing these children to kill each other until only one survives.

Behind Mount Naihe, there is a deep and narrow valley, which is the site for raising Gu poison. Twenty children are thrown in together, sealed inside, and they will not be checked on again until a month later.
