Chapter 1453
"But regardless of whether he gives us the antidote or not, young master must capture him. If he doesn't, have the Imperial Guards use torture on him."
"If he still won't give it to me even after all this, then it can only be my destiny. Young Master, you should kill him to avenge me!"
After reading Zheng Shiye's plan, Wei Wu frowned slightly. It wasn't that he was unwilling to cooperate, but rather that he didn't know how to cooperate.
The fact that Master Bailian could use poison to force Master Zheng to comply is enough to show that she understands pharmacology and her medical skills are probably not bad either.
Whether one is truly dead or faking death will likely be seen through at a glance, at which point all talk will be in vain.
Just as Wei Wu was filled with doubt, Zheng Shiye picked up his pen again and wrote down a line.
"Young Master, do you still remember that Golden Cicada Red Pill?"
As soon as Master Zheng finished speaking, Wei Wu's eyes lit up. He still had the Golden Cicada Red Pill in his hand!
If Master Zheng hadn't mentioned it, Wei Wu would have almost forgotten that having this thing in hand might actually be able to fool the White Lotus Taoist.
After all, Wei Wu had personally witnessed its miraculous effects; those who took this medicine not only lost their breath but also couldn't even feel their pulse.
As long as the effects of the drug haven't worn off, no matter who comes to examine it, it will definitely be a corpse.
At first, Wei Wu thought Zheng Shiye's plan was unreliable, but now he really thought it was worth a try.
So after Master Zheng finished speaking, Wei Wu immediately picked up his pen and began to discuss the details with Master Zheng.
Of course, while they were communicating by writing, their mouths didn't stop either; they continued to discuss local specialties.
Their conversation left the 'servant' outside the door completely bewildered, his mind filled with thoughts of local specialties.
Just as Master Zheng had guessed, the reason this person was sent by Master Bailian to monitor Master Zheng was because of his special skill.
Unlike ordinary people, this person has had extraordinary hearing since childhood, and can hear the sound of insects flapping their wings from five meters away.
So when Master Zheng asked him to wait outside the door, the man simply asked one question and immediately agreed.
He was confident that even if Master Zheng and Wei Wu spoke in hushed tones in the room, he would still be able to hear what they were saying.
However, to his surprise, from the moment he entered the room, Master Zheng kept discussing that damned local specialty with Wei Wu.
If the situation hadn't prevented it, he would have rushed into the ward, grabbed Master Zheng by the collar, and asked him if he had forgotten his mission.
Unfortunately, this was destined to be nothing but wishful thinking. Now, he dared not even move, let alone rush into the ward.
He was afraid that one of his actions might offend the guards lurking in the shadows, and they might arrest him.
Fortunately, the topic of local specialties didn't last long, and soon Zheng Shiye's shouts could be heard in the ward.
The servant, who had been waiting impatiently, immediately turned around and pushed open the door when he heard Master Zheng's call.
He discreetly surveyed the ward for a while, and seeing nothing suspicious, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He then acted entirely like a servant, and under Zheng Shiye's arrangement, slowly pushed him out of the Imperial Hospital.
However, after distancing himself from the Imperial Hospital, he could no longer hold back and directly questioned them in a low voice.
"Hey Zheng, have you forgotten something? Do you really think you're here to chat idly with Wei Wu?"
Because he was worried that someone was watching him, he kept his voice down and didn't dare to speak too loudly.
But Master Zheng was different from him. After the man finished speaking, Master Zheng immediately turned his head and looked at him.
Not only did his expression show disgust, but his voice also sounded somewhat impatient as he said:
"Come, tell me, what exactly is the purpose of our trip to the Imperial Hospital this time?"
"You're asking me? If you don't know what to do, do you want me to teach you 'personally'?"
