However, Hou Lei's injuries have not healed yet, and he should have been in bed to recuperate, but he has been staying at Dou Ying's bedside without drinking water these days, and he has become even weaker.
"Fellow Taoist, please give me an explanation from the Dou family."
Dou Lin looked at Ning Zhishui coldly, his voice seemed to be squeezed out from his teeth.
Ning Zhishui was about to speak when he heard President Meng speak out——
"May I ask this little friend, what is the pill you just fed?"
Compared with others, Chairman Meng's voice seemed particularly calm, even a little gentle.
Only then did Ning Zhishui have time to look at him.
President Meng is also wearing an alchemist's robe, but it is more delicate than Liu Tai's. The cuffs and collar are edged with gold lines.
But that's not the point. The point is that there are three stars on his chest.
This is an earth-level alchemist.
There are countless heaven-level alchemists in the entire continent. The number is extremely limited, and all of them are guests of the big forces.
When there are very few heaven-level alchemists, the status of earth-level alchemists is also extremely high. After all, everyone here has the potential to break through to the heaven-level and should not be underestimated.
Liu Tai was of the same age but was only at Xuan level, and his nostrils were already on the top of his head, but President Meng, who was obviously of a higher status, was friendly and gentle, showing no dignity or airs.
In fact, as far as Ning Zhishui knows, most of the real top figures are very generous in their dealings with others, making it impossible for anyone to fault them.
At least it looks like this on the outside, because their arrogance is hidden deep in their hearts. They may look down on you in their hearts, but they probably won't show it on the outside.
Only those half-hearted people will fly in the air, looking down upon others and flattering others.
"It's my homemade detoxification pill called Poison Fang."
When others are kind, Ning Zhishui answers politely.
Homemade elixir?
Others may not understand what this sentence means, but President Meng and Liu Tai, who are both alchemists, know it. When they heard the words, they were both stunned for a moment.
Then Liu Tai sneered, "How ridiculous is it that you, a yellow-haired girl, can make your own elixirs? It seems that I will be able to break through and become a heaven-level alchemist tomorrow."
You must first know and be proficient, and then you can be innovative. This is true in all walks of life.
How can any rookie innovate?
President Meng also felt a little ridiculous in his heart, but he did not deny it easily. He just asked Ning Zhishui, "There is a second poison fang pill. Can you let me have a look?"
Ning Zhishui hummed and poured out another one, "Be careful, it's very valuable."
Hua Jiaqing's expression on the side changed slightly——
Why does this pill look so much like the one her father took?
In my impression, the one my father took was also very small and mini, both in black color.
Almost at this moment, Hua Jiaqing was convinced that this medicine could definitely save Miss Dou!
But why did she lose her temper?
Hua Jiaqing looked at the bed. Mrs. Dou was holding Miss Dou, who was weak all over, lowering her head and crying. She was very sad. Miss Dou still seemed to have no breath and looked like she was dead.
Be careful...very expensive...
Ning Zhishui's words made everyone in the room look strange, and President Meng even had a helpless smile on his face.
"Don't worry, I will compensate you if it breaks." He said.
After taking a closer look and smelling it, his expression became a little serious.
This pill... he has indeed never seen it before, and judging from its smell and appearance, this pill is not made randomly, it does have an effect.
In other words, this elixir is indeed an innovative and effective elixir.
"The little girl pretends to be quite similar, but do you know who this is?" Liu Tai sneered, "This is President Meng Cheng Meng, one of the strongest among prefecture-level alchemists, and the most likely to break through to the sky. He is a super alchemist. If you lie in front of him, do you know the consequences?"
President Meng glanced at Liu Tai disapprovingly, "This elixir is indeed something I have never seen before, and it does have an antidote effect."
He couldn't know all the medicinal materials inside by smelling it, but the ones he smelled had detoxifying effects.
But he didn't know exactly what kind of poison it could cure.
Liu Tai was stunned for a moment, "Even this is useless. She was the one who killed Miss Dou. This shows that this medicine is not suitable for the patient."
President Meng couldn't stand listening anymore, "If you don't understand, just don't say anything."
ah?
Liu Tai was stunned.
The Dou family, who still looked angry when facing Ning Zhishui, was also confused.
"It was not Miss Dou who was killed by this little friend, but Miss Dou died when she was feeding the elixir." President Meng corrected, "Don't you know the meaning of 'Jue Yue'?"
Jueyue... Liu Tai opened his mouth.
Jue Yue is a word only used by alchemists. It refers to the reaction that a small number of people will have before death, mostly when they die from poisoning.
That is, the toxin war in the body has reached its peak and the body cannot bear it, so it will bounce around.
Often after this, the person will expire and die.
But there is still a little time between the ultimate leap and the real death. If there is a way to save people, then this is the last and most critical time.
"Uh, I don't know what Jue Yue is?" Dou Lin asked.
President Meng explained it to him, and then said: "This little friend did the right thing. Regardless of whether the elixir works or not, if you don't try it by then, you will have no chance."
Meng Cheng believed that Ning Zhishui had a new medicine, but he did not dare to use it on Dou Ying because he was not sure of its efficacy.
But after seeing that she had already developed a jump reaction and that it would be too late to use it again, I seized the last moment to give her a try.
It would be best if it can be used, but even if it is useless, it is not a fault.
After hearing his explanation, everyone understood Ning Zhishui's intention.
Although Meng Cheng came here with Zhuan Ning Dan, he was a step too late. Dou Ying was already dying before she entered the house, so the medicine he brought was destined to be useless.
Under such circumstances, it is understandable that Ning Zhishui took medicine without permission at the last moment.
Regardless of whether she was fed an antidote or poison, it was not her fault.
Liu Tai's face was burning, but he couldn't say anything and just turned his head away.
"I see, I'm sorry, little friend, we have wronged you." The head of the Dou family hugged Ning Zhishui's fists.
His face was still sad. Even if he didn't blame Ning Zhishui, it was still a fact that his daughter died.
"It's my fault that I didn't come sooner. If I could have come earlier... ugh." Chairman Meng also felt extremely regretful.
In a room with low air pressure, everyone sighing, and occasionally Mrs. Dou crying, Ning Zhishui spoke——
"Um, can I talk?"
There was an inappropriate smile in her voice.
When everyone looked over in confusion, they saw her raising her chin towards the bed, "Miss Dou, you're still alive."
