Outside the bamboo screen, in the front hall of the pharmacy.

There is a pot of hot tea on the table by the window, and the two people on the left and right are holding tea cups and sipping tea and frowning.

"Hey..." Mr. Tao sighed heavily, looked at Kong Ge and said, "Brother Kong, last night you said that this little brother was Ji Ruge? But is it true?"

"It's absolutely true." Kong Ge deliberately frowned, then smiled and said: "If I hadn't heard Brother Tao mention that Ji Ruge was kind to you, how could I have dared to reveal this kid's true identity to you? Needless to say, this kid's chess skills are probably as good as those of Brother Feng. I was taught a lesson in chess by this little brother. There is a rumor in the world that this kid kills without blinking an eye and is a devil! But in my opinion , this boy has a good heart and a very benevolent and righteous heart."

When Mr. Tao heard this, he nodded and replied: "Brother Kong, this is wrong. Sometimes what you hear is not necessarily true. Seeing is believing, and getting along is true! Let's not hide the truth. Many years ago, , my family's decline was due to Jiangnan An Ning Guan and Ba Dao Sect. Quanzi lost his education and loved gambling in his early years, and was framed and killed by the leaders of these two sects. As a result, my Hu Man Villa was destroyed! Last year, the leaders of these two sects were killed. I heard that it was Ji Ruge who had done it. When I was about to go down the mountain to eliminate these two sects who were doing shady things behind their backs, I heard that Ji Ruge had already killed him. Ji Ruge has a bad reputation, and I have been traveling all the way to find out his whereabouts. What do you think?"

"Oh, I didn't expect that my brother's family background was so rough? What happened next? I'd like to know more about it!" Kong Ge said doubtfully.

"Hey, it's all my fault that I was only interested in researching poisons and neglected to discipline my dog, which made him addicted to gambling. That's why he fell into the trap of the two of them, ruined the family fortune, and brought the family to this low point!" Mr. Tao He waved his hand and continued: "The past is too old, so let's not mention it. Besides, I have been searching for that Ji Ruge for many days, but only in the flood-stricken area in the south of the Yangtze River, I found out that this person is far from the devil he is rumored to be! "

"Brother, you are insightful!" Kong Ge nodded and praised.

Mr. Tao smiled slightly and continued: "It's not that I'm knowledgeable, but what Brother Kong said is true. This guy does have a benevolent and righteous heart. I found that in the flood-stricken area, there are rumors in all the villages and towns about a great benevolent man. , and a special Yiguan Temple was built for him. I interviewed many local victims carefully, and I vaguely guessed that the person was Ji Ruge, but the statue was ambiguously carved, more like a middle-aged man in his forties, not like this Little brother?"

Hearing this, Kong Ge smiled slightly again and murmured: "Fortunately, I am an expert in poison and medicine. Who is a medical practitioner who doesn't know how to disguise himself? Why can't this devil in the martial arts world be disguised as a doctor?" He is a hero in the people's mouth!"

"What a word that wakes up the dreamer!" Mr. Tao smiled slightly, then took a sip of strong tea, and then turned to look at the young man on the hospital bed who had woken up once or twice and fell asleep again, which meant He nodded deeply.

"Hey, I don't think his situation is very optimistic! Brother Tao, why don't we continue to try the remaining poisons?" Kong Ge also took a sip of strong tea to refresh himself and prepared to continue.

Both of them stayed up all night and kept mixing and testing poisons. There were already a lot of dead rabbits piled outside the eaves.

"Let's go on, let's keep trying. Even if we use up all the breeding rabbits like me, it doesn't matter. It's just that Brother Kong has spent the whole night with me and I have to continue to persevere." Mr. Tao said with his fists in his hands.

Kong Ge hurriedly waved his hands and muttered: "Needless to say, although brother Xiaoyu is kind to you, he is also my good friend, so I should do my best!"

The two nodded, stood up, and went to the medicine shelf filled with various bottles and jars on one side, and continued to prepare poisons for testing.

Just when the two of them had prepared the first bottle of poison and were about to test it, there was a knock on the door.

Kong and Tao knew that Feng Yi and Li Luo had finished preparing breakfast, and it was time to invite them to eat.

Mr. Tao replied to the door: "Wait a moment, wait for the two of us to try the poison this time, and then come back for breakfast."

As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Yi pushed open the door and entered.

Three people appeared in their field of vision.

Mr. Tao was confused and frowned, "Who is this girl?"

Kong Ge was shocked and said: "Miss Qin Shuang!

"

Feng Yi nodded, and Li Luo also greeted the two of them: "Mr. Kong, Mr. Tao, you go to eat first, and let Sister Shuang come and see Xiaoyu's poison."

Kong Ge hurriedly explained to Mr. Tao: "Brother Tao, this girl in red is the Poinsettia, a famous poisoner in the world that I told you. I lost to her a few days ago."

"I remember you mentioned it last night, saying that this girl wanted to come to me to compare poisons. Is she her?" Mr. Tao frowned and said doubtfully: "It's not that I look down on this girl. Her age Is Qingqing really capable of this?"

"Haha, Brother Tao, who is a disciple of the medical sage Wuji Taoist? Who is so incompetent?" Kong Ge muttered.

When Mr. Tao heard this, he chuckled and said, "Haha, you didn't tell me earlier."

Qin Shuang smiled slightly, cupped her fists and said, "I have met Mr. Tao, the owner of Hu Man Village."

Seeing this, Mr. Tao quickly put down his work, cupped his fists and said, "You are so polite, little girl, since you have such ability, please work with us to detoxify Brother Xiaoyu."

Hearing this, Qin Shuang hurriedly walked to Xiao Yu. After a careful inspection, he turned around and cupped his fists at Tao and Kong. He solemnly said: "Two seniors, I think I should be able to detoxify this poison, but I have to borrow the help of two seniors." Three little rabbits!"

Kong Ge heard this and praised: "They are the younger generation after all, not bad." Then he patted Mr. Tao on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You and I are both old..."

Mr. Tao frowned and said in surprise: "Brother Kong and I have spent the whole night and still haven't been able to research the last poison! Little girl, don't lie! Don't say three, you're just going to use the remaining dozen or so of me." All I have to do is use it, as long as you can detoxify brother Xiaoyu! If you ask me to compare the use of poison, there is no need to compete! I am convinced and I should admit defeat!"

Hearing this, Qin Shuang nodded, clasped his fists and said, "Mr., did you think this was the poison from the Seven-Floor Poison Department's Five Poison Life-Destroying Needles? Then he thought it was six kinds of poison? Look at the postures of the two seniors. Match it with the sixth poison!"

"Exactly, what Miss Qin Shuang said is true!" Kong Ge said, cupping his fists.

Mr. Tao was shocked when he heard this. He thought to himself that this little girl is very good at poisons. Just looking at this little brother's symptoms, he knew that my judgment was really powerful. He then clasped his fists and said, "What do you think, young lady?"

Qin Shuang smiled slightly and returned the favor with cupped fists, "I'm not sure yet, so I'd like to ask the two old gentlemen to follow Luo Luo and Uncle Feng to have breakfast first. After I test the medicine for a while, I should have a conclusion."

When Mr. Tao heard what Qin Shuang said just now, he knew that this little girl was not inferior to him in using poison, so he simply nodded and said: "Brother Kong and I are exhausted after a long night, so I'm here to help you!"

Qin Shuang nodded and invited everyone out. While laying out several of her cloth bags, she searched for several possible poisons on Mr. Tao's medicine shelf and began to prepare antidotes in an orderly manner.

Feng Yi and the other three turned around and came to the main room, ladling porridge to satisfy their hunger while chatting about Qin Shuang.
