Chapter 704: Make up for the loss
"Wang Nianchu?"
"What is she doing here?"
After an incense stick of time, Wei Changtian, who was talking to Yang Liushi, raised his head with a puzzled expression.
The guard standing by whispered, "Sir, Miss Wang said she wants to see the Madam."
"oh."
Turning his head to look at Yang Liushi, Wei Changtian smiled and said, "So you are the one I am looking for."
"Looking for me?"
Yang Liushi was also somewhat bewildered. She looked up and asked the guard, "Did she say anything?"
"No."
The guard reported truthfully: "I didn't ask, and Miss Wang didn't say anything on her own initiative."
"I see."
Yang Liushi nodded and whispered to Wei Changtian, "My lord, I will go see Miss Wang first."
"Go ahead."
He waved his hand and watched Yang Liushi get up and leave with the guards. The room soon became quiet again.
Although Wei Changtian didn't know why Wang Nianchu suddenly came to see Yang Liushi, he thought it would not be a big deal.
So he didn't think much about it, but just sat there quietly, staring at a piece of calligraphy hanging on the wall in a daze.
The brushwork is vigorous, with iron-like strokes and silver-like hooks.
Judging from Wei Changtian's almost non-existent ability to appreciate calligraphy, this calligraphy is well written and should be from the hand of a famous calligrapher.
At least compared to those flamboyant handwriting, I can recognize what was written.
“Watch the sea and listen to the waves.”
"well"
Reading out the four words in a low voice, Wei Changtian sighed softly, with a somewhat sad expression on his face.
He had learned Chinese well in his previous life, and knew that these four words meant "remain calm in the face of danger and remain calm in the face of change."
To put it at a higher level, it means "Do not be happy with things, and do not be sad with yourself."
To be honest, Wei Changtian actually hopes that he can do this now.
However, given the current situation, I'm afraid it would be difficult for most people to remain calm.
"Chu Xianping, Kui Long, Xinfeng"
Retracting his gaze, Wei Changtian repeated these names in a low voice, and after a few breaths, he took out a small cloth bag from his sleeve.
There is a puppet pill in the small cloth bag.
Since nothing has been analyzed from the motivation aspect for the time being, the Puppet Pill is the key to solving the mystery from another direction.
There is no doubt that the puppet pill that Chu Xianping took in front of him was real.
This is also the reason why Wei Changtian has never been sure that Chu Xianping has rebelled.
However, if the Puppet Pill was 100% safe, he wouldn't be so conflicted now.
Because Wei Changtian himself now knows two ways to solve the problem of elixir.
[Jade Dew Powder: It can cure all poisons, transform all poisons, break all illusions, and temporarily suppress the inner demons of martial arts. 100 points]
Compared to the Puppet Pill which only costs 30 points, this Jade Dew Powder is obviously much more expensive and has greater effects.
Although the description of Puppet Pill says that "the poison will last until death", it seems to have a "contradictory" effect conflict with Jade Dew Powder.
But judging by the fact that the "Qingjue Jade Pendant" can block the "divine attack", the Jade Dew Powder should also be able to cure the poison of the Puppet Pill.
So, it’s Xu Suisui?
Judging from Chu Xianping's current abnormal behavior, it is hard for Wei Changtian not to suspect that all this is related to Xu Suisui.
After all, both of them were involved in the Kuilong incident, and they were both "elders" of the Presbyterian Church.
Now that so much time has passed, it's normal for them to have some interactions over this.
And in Wei Changtian's opinion, the person who could "persuade" Chu Xianping to do what he did now, or the price offered could impress Chu Xianping, was most likely the only one who was "foresighted" Xu Suisui.
In addition, this war originally involved Xinfeng.
No matter from which angle the analysis was made, Xu Suisui's figure appeared repeatedly at the edge of the fog, so Wei Changtian felt that it was very likely that she had used Yu Lu Powder to cure Chu Xianping's poison.
But this doesn't make sense.
That is why Han Zhao could still feel the aura of the Puppet Pill from Chu Xianping? Could it be that Chu Xianping first dissolved the pill and then took another Puppet Pill?
So who does this puppet pill owe allegiance to?
Xu Suisui?
After this analysis, things become complicated and confusing.
Moreover, there is a second possibility. To talk about the second method of dissolving the pill, we have to mention the "new" puppet pill that Wei Changtian gave to Chu Xianping.
The puppet pill requires a drop of blood to work. The person who takes the pill will explode and die if he betrays the person who dropped the blood.
At that time, Wei Changtian wanted Chu Xianping to give the puppet pill to Song Li.
But as mentioned before, the latter did not take the elixir.
Later, Shen Ran sent back important information about Xu Suisui several times, which made Wei Changtian wonder if Chu Xianping had given Shen Ran the Puppet Pill.
But because Shen Ran had been following Xu Suisui, he had never been sure about this matter.
But now it seems that there may be another possibility. That is, Chu Xianping dripped blood on the puppet pill himself and then ate it himself.
What would happen if two puppet pills were taken at the same time? Wei Changtian had already done an experiment on this question when he was still in Liangzhou.
The results of the experiment prove that the effects of Puppet Pill will not be superimposed but will overlap.
That is to say, when a person takes the second puppet pill, his loyalty will change from the person who took the first pill to the person who took the second pill.
Therefore, if Chu Xianping really did this, it would be equivalent to indirectly resolving the poison.
After all, he couldn't possibly betray himself.
Rubbing his forehead, Wei Changtian's thoughts were in a mess at this moment.
The above two situations are already complicated enough, not to mention whether Chu Xianping will find the third or fourth method to solve the elixir.
Previously, Chu Xianping was in full charge of Tongzhouhui's affairs. He had a large number of puppet pills in his hands, enough for him to conduct various experiments.
Therefore, even if Chu Xianping really mastered other methods to make the elixir, Wei Changtian would not be surprised at all.
"well"
With a sigh, Wei Changtian finally realized the disadvantages of being a "hands-off boss".
But now that things have come to this, there is no point in regretting them. The real thing is to find ways to remedy the situation.
As for how to make up for it, compared to the mystery of whether Chu Xianping has turned back, Wei Changtian already has a very clear idea about this matter.
It’s actually very simple to say.
After all, no matter what Chu Xianping's purpose is or what conspiracy he has, he will ultimately need to use the power and influence in his hands to achieve it.
In that case, all I have to do is seize his power.
Of course, this is easier said than done.
Although he had already taken back the Tianji Academy, he could also let Liang Zhen, Ning Yuke and others exclude him from military and court affairs.
But the Freemasonry, which has now grown to a very large scale, was developed and expanded by Chu Xianping alone.
Therefore, it will undoubtedly take a lot of effort to get Freemasonry back.
Not to mention there is also a Kuilong. Standing up, he slowly paced back and forth in the room, and Wei Changtian's eyes gradually became colder.
If that doesn't work, why not be more direct? Tie up Chu Xianping and force him to tell the truth.
If he still refuses to say anything, then kill him.
“.”
His footsteps suddenly stopped. The thought only flashed through Wei Changtian's mind, but it made him feel a piercing chill in an instant.
There is no doubt that, whether from an emotional or rational point of view, Wei Changtian is unwilling to reach a life-and-death situation with Chu Xianping.
But what if the latter is really the opposite?
Even, does Chu Xianping want to step on himself to continue moving forward?
"well."
"Brother Chu."
"What on earth are you going to do?"
“.”
P.S. Damn, I don’t feel like writing today, so I can only finish one chapter.
I will update three times tomorrow. If the follow-up situation is good, I will update for a week! !
