Zhang Ren said with a gloomy face: "Do you have to use dogs to test poison? Don't you know how to use silver needles?"
Ji Gang scratched his head, "How do you test the poison with a silver needle?"
Zhang Ren had no choice but to say: "You are still a gangster, so you still have the nerve to ask me how to test for poison with a silver needle? Will it be harmful to stick a silver needle into vegetables? If the silver needle turns black, it means it is poisonous."
Ji Gang tilted his head and said helplessly: "Sir, there is a saying that I don't know whether to say it or not."
Zhang Ren said angrily: "If you have anything to say, just say it."
Just listen to Ji Gang say: "Sir, I have heard of this silver needle test for poison, but this method is indeed not feasible. Many poisons cannot be detected by silver needles."
Ji Gang is right, silver will change color after contact with sulfide, but not all poisons contain sulfur. Of course, this is the truth, but Ji Gang, who was in the Ming Dynasty, couldn't explain it clearly.
As a time traveler, Zhang Ren didn't study well before. As long as he studied chemistry well, he wouldn't be embarrassed by Ji Gang. Of course, this cannot be entirely blamed on Zhang Ren. He was also led astray by numerous TV series and novels.
Now Zhang Ren was still in the mood to eat, so he just patted his butt and left.
Early the next morning, Zhang Ren didn't even go to Zhan Shi's house, but dragged Ji Gang out of bed early.
We couldn't find anyone from Jiumen yesterday, so let's continue today. Jiumen's business involves a wide range of things. It's not an exaggeration to say that it's a complicated business empire. Such a huge organization has to support so many people, and it has to be shut down for a day. It would cause countless losses. Zhang Ren did not believe that Jiumen could continue to suffer losses.
But the result was destined to disappoint Zhang Ren. He dragged Ji Gang and fled from Jinling City for three days in a row, but he didn't even find half a figure in Jiumen.
After walking around for three days in a row, they visited all the main roads in Jinling City. Zhang Ren, who had two great magical skills to protect his body, felt severe pain in his legs. Ji Gang, who only knew some three-legged cat kung fu, complained endlessly.
It was not an option to continue searching like this. On the fourth day, Zhang Ren stopped searching and went to the forest ten miles west of the city early in the morning. He wanted to see Liuli, but at the same time he also needed to calm down and think carefully about how to remove the nine gates. people to find out.
Sitting in front of Liuli's tomb, Zhang Ren talked a lot to Liuli, recounting all the recent troubles he had encountered. He had never said these words to anyone else. He didn't want to cause trouble to the people around him, and it seemed that only here, He can say everything without any hesitation.
Facing the Nine Sects, Zhang Ren felt an unprecedented threat and pressure. After speaking out his words, Zhang Ren himself felt a lot more relaxed. Then he started singing the song "The Peony Pavilion" again.
"The flowers are blooming and the plum trees are next to the small building, and the Book of Songs is dreaming back to Guanjiu..."
The singing is still not very good, but it is still affectionate.
After singing the song, a voice sounded from behind Zhang Ren.
"This song is so... so beautiful."
Maybe he had relaxed his vigilance, and Zhang Ren didn't notice that someone was already approaching. But from the sound, I knew it was Yuan Bao who was coming.
"When did you come?" Zhang Ren asked.
Yuan Bao answered: "It's been... a while."
Zhang Ren nodded and asked: "How are the people rescued from the Tumen?"
Yuan Bao nodded first, then shook his head and said: "They are all still alive... alive, but not... not very good. They are... sometimes crazy, and sometimes... stupid again. Laugh, it’s scary.”
Those people first witnessed Tumen turning them into cripples, and then tortured them for a long time. It is strange that they are mentally normal. Now that they can be rescued alive, it is considered good. As for whether they can be better in the future? There are no drugs to treat mental illness in this era, so we can only place our hope in God.
Zhang Ren stepped forward and patted Yuan Bao's shoulder. This action also made Yuan Bao's face turn slightly red, but Zhang Ren's attention was not on his face, so he naturally did not see it.
Just listen to Zhang Ren say: "They are all poor people. You don't have to be afraid of them. You have to give them more love, so as to help them recover."
Yuan Bao nodded, and then said to Zhang Ren: "Are you... worried about something? I saw you... you and your people have been around the city... the city for three days."
As a little beggar, Yuan Bao could still find traces of Zhang Ren even if he could only move around in the outer city. This was mainly due to the large number of beggars.
Zhang Ren also thought about asking Yuan Bao and the others to help find traces of Jiumen, but Yuanbao and the others did not know the people in Jiumen, and Zhang Ren really didn't want to involve these poor people.
Zhang Ren shook his head and said, "It's no big deal."
Although Zhang Ren said this, Yuan Bao could still feel the change in Zhang Ren. In the past, Zhang Ren would always make fun of Yuan Bao and seemed relaxed and happy. But after the Songzhu Pavilion incident, Yuan Bao could clearly see Zhang Ren's change. I see trouble and sorrow between my brows.
Yuan Bao has low self-esteem. In the final analysis, he is just a little beggar. He knows that with his status, he may not be able to help Zhang Ren a lot, but he still wants to help Zhang Ren. He wants to see Zhang Ren become relaxed again. Happy look.
"I want to help... help you." After saying these words, even Yuan Bao felt that he was overestimating his capabilities. He lowered his head and blushed, waiting for Zhang Ren's answer.
Zhang Ren patted his shoulder again and said: "As long as you help me take care of those rescued people, it will be the greatest help to me."
After Yuan Bao heard this, he buried his head lower. He somewhat hated his humble status and partly hated that he could not help Zhang Ren.
Seeing Yuan Bao like this, Zhang Ren only thought that there was some financial situation. After all, Moss Village suddenly had so many mouths to eat, so he must be struggling with money.
Zhang Ren immediately followed: "I know it's not easy for you, so you just make do with it for now. After a while, I will think of some ways to make money, and I will definitely send more money to Moss Village."
Yuan Bao lowered his head and said nothing.
When Zhang Ren thought about the money issue, a flash of lightning flashed in Zhang Ren's mind, and he had already thought of ways to find people from the Nine Sects.
The reason why Jiumen can become bigger and stronger is nothing more than profit. As long as Zhang Ren can obtain enough benefits, Zhang Ren doesn't believe that Jiumen can still stand still if he can unify the underworld in Jinling City at the moment when Jiumen has disappeared. , they will definitely surface by then.
After thinking about this problem, Zhang Ren's frown relaxed. He happily hugged Yuan Bao and thanked him: "Yuan Bao! Thank you so much. You are really my lucky star."
