Soon, Liu Mu came out of the leader's office excitedly.
He waved to Xu Yi from a distance and asked her to come over.
After a detailed inspection, the two put down their bags before being allowed into the information room.
The automatic tempered glass door behind him closed with a bang.
Hearing this voice, Xu Yi's heart tightened. It seemed that the things in the data room were indeed very important, otherwise there would not be so many layers of insurance.
"This door is closed. How are we going to get out later?"
"Just press the red button over there. Lao Zhang will open the door for us outside." Liu Mu said seriously.
He had not yet recovered from the news Xu Yi brought him.
He pointed to the third row of bookshelves to Xu Yi.
"Over there are books on medicine and toxicology. Take a look while I look up other information."
"Okay, thanks." Xu Yi said.
Looking at the densely packed book as thick as a brick, Xu Yi felt overwhelmed.
If I had known that my master would have taken the medical books more seriously when he gave them to her, I wouldn’t have to cram now.
Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world, so I can only bury myself in the sea of books.
Time slipped away unknowingly between his fingers. Xu Yi felt dizzy from reading. He raised his head and twisted his stiff neck.
She suddenly saw a yellowed book in the upper left corner of the bookshelf.
She stood up, carefully took out the book, stretched her body, and started reading.
This book is called "Folk Remedies".
Although it was a folk remedy, the content in the book made Xu Yi's eyes light up.
Many prescriptions are useful.
She quickly flipped through the catalog, and the big words on the last line made her heart pound.
It is a prescription that can cure all kinds of poisons.
When I opened it, it said:
Recipe to cure all poisons: Dragon Beard Grass, Tianshan Snow Lotus, Golden Beetle, Red Spider Flower, Yellow Spring Water, Ginseng, and Soul-Resurrection Grass. (This recipe is a literary creation, please do not use it indiscriminately!)
The usage and dosage are also clearly recorded.
But whether it is useful or not, you have to try it to know.
She quickly wrote it down and prepared to gather all the things so that she could give them to Zheng Yibai.
But it’s a bit difficult to get the red spider lily and the Yellow Spring water. Do I have to go directly to the underworld to get them?
This is a bit difficult! Although she is skilled and courageous, he realized the difference between the living world and the underworld after his last trip to the underworld.
Moreover, he was in unfamiliar territory and had no help, so he might never come back.
But no matter how difficult it is, I have to give it another try for Xiaobai.
She hoped that the leaders of the underworld would pretend that she didn't exist and allow her to grab some small resources.
If I had known earlier, I should have picked some red spider lilies and brought back some Yellow Spring water.
She shook her head, put away the note, said hello to Liu Mu who was still buried in the pile of books, and prepared to leave.
Liu Mu raised her head with red eyes and said in a hoarse voice: "Xu Yi, take a look at this."
After saying that, he handed Xu Yi a file.
Xu Yi was a little confused as to why Liu Mu asked her to look at this file.
Isn't this confidential? Is this something that an outsider like me can see?
She carefully read the words on the file line by line. After reading the information, she felt a throbbing pain in her temples.
"The Shadow Clan has existed for a long time? They've done so many bad things over the years, but no one's dealt with them?
Why keep them here? "
Liu Mu explained: "It's written above that there is no direct evidence, and they suspect that their leader is not human! And most likely he is a ghost king.
But this man's whereabouts are mysterious and erratic. No one knows where he is and no one has ever seen him.
He did catch a few of his minions, but every time they asked about key details, they were defeated.
Therefore, there has been no internal information about the Shadow Gate and the people cannot be caught.
I have a feeling our boss's sudden departure without even saying goodbye must have something to do with this. But the specific reason is something I can only find out by asking him in person."
"So what are you going to do? Report it or investigate it yourself?" Xu Yi asked.
She must get to the bottom of this matter, as it seems that these incidents are closely related to the Shadow Clan.
And she always felt that an invisible big hand was pulling her into it.
Otherwise why is she there every time? This doesn't make sense.
She is just an ordinary Taoist priest who wants to make some money, catch some ghosts, and practice when she has time. Why would such a strange sect target her?
No wonder they were captivated by her charm and wanted her to join them. But she repeatedly disrupted their plans, and they didn't retaliate.
Strange, so strange!
Liu Mu clenched his fist and slammed the table hard, "Of course I won't let them go!
But now there is no evidence, so I can only investigate privately. If they really did it, I will avenge Xiaoyu and will not let them go.
Xu Yi patted his arm and said, "This group of people are elusive and have some tricks up their sleeves. You should be careful and make sure not to alert them."
Unclasping his fist, Liu Mu nodded, "Yes, I know. Then let's keep each other informed. If you find any useful information, let me know."
Xu Yi immediately agreed, saying it would be good to have more people investigate.
"I'm leaving first. Let's keep in touch later." Xu Yi said.
Liu Mu said, "Okay, I'll take you there. I'll check the information."
Xu Yi waved at him, "No need, I know how to get out, you go ahead and do your work."
He turned around, took a few steps, pressed the button next to the tempered door, and walked out.
…
After leaving the Investigation Bureau, Xu Yi immediately called Zheng Yibai's master Cheng Wei.
"Senior Cheng, this is what happened. Xiaobai is lying in the hospital and hasn't woken up yet. Do you have any way to detoxify him?
I have a folk remedy that claims to cure all kinds of poisons, but I'm not sure if it works, so I wanted to ask you first."
Hearing Xu Yi's narration, Cheng Wei's heart tightened. He touched his chest and said:
"No wonder I've been feeling uneasy these past few days, it turns out it's Xiaobai.
I have no other options but to try the folk remedy you found."
Xu Yi nodded, not feeling disappointed. She had calculated that although Zheng Yibai was in great danger this time, almost dying, wasn't there still a chance of survival? She believed she could pull him back from the brink of death.
"Okay then. I'll quickly go find the herbs I need. I'll have to try my best to save the situation."
Cheng Wei said: "Okay, thank you for your help. If you need any medicinal herbs, I can help you find them."
Although Xu Yi doesn't deal with people much, he has always been a reliable person.
He couldn't leave now, otherwise he would definitely come back to see Xiaobai immediately.
The child had a miserable life since childhood and was abandoned when he was a few years old. He was accidentally found by him and was taken to the mountains.
But no one expected that he had such an unlucky physique that only appears once in a thousand years.
Even drinking water can get stuck in my teeth. When I go out, I either fall down or on the way to fall down. Injuries and bleeding are commonplace.
During those years, he thought of many ways to make himself less unlucky on Jiufeng Mountain.
During the Chinese New Year, he calculated that Xiaobai would have a major disaster this year and might not survive, so he made several amulets for him and asked him to carry them with him.
Unexpectedly, I still couldn’t escape.
