Chapter 221: Evil



Leng Yue was almost rolling her eyes at being strangled by Huo Jingxuan, and her patience was almost exhausted.

However, she still wanted to laugh when she heard Huo Jingxuan's words.

"I do want to be immortal, but who knows whether my father in heaven and the King of Hell would agree or not!

There is one more thing I want to say. Can you please let me go first? Otherwise, you will strangle me to death before I receive the reply from those two big guys.

Tell me, do you have a dog outside? Do you want to take advantage of my illness to kill me? Get rid of me in one fell swoop to make room for your new lover!"

Huo Jingxuan was so scared that he quickly let go of Leng Yue, stood aside and explained to her like a good baby, and almost swore.

"Wife, I was just too worried about you and lost my sense of proportion.

I don’t have a dog outside, and I don’t like dogs, I just like you.”

Lechen was so jealous that he almost vomited, so he quickly spoke up to indicate that he was an outsider, "Can you two restrain yourself a little? I am a monk, so it's not good to provoke me!"

"Why haven't you left yet?" Huo Jingxuan and Leng Yue said in unison.

Lechen rolled his eyes at each of them, but thinking that he couldn't beat either of them, he gave a standard smile he used when doing business.

"I am ignorant. I will leave now and get out of your sight. Please continue, continue."

When leaving, he did not forget to close the door for them.

Then Leng Yue said, "Go on, my husband, pour me a cup of warm water so I can rinse my mouth. You guys gave me medicine, why is my mouth so bitter?"

If Leng Yue hadn't mentioned it, Huo Jingxuan would have forgotten about the fake medicine because he was so happy just now. He got even angrier when she mentioned it.

He told Leng Yue the truth, and Leng Yue got angry when he heard it.

The mouthwash almost sprayed on Huo Jingxuan's face. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been hit.

Leng Yue was so angry that she slapped the bed board, "It seems that I suffered in vain, and the bitter medicine I drank was fake."

Huo Jingxuan nodded quickly, "Yeah, it's all in vain, I've suffered in vain, I've paid for the medicine, it's so bitter, it's so bitter.

Is it true that his coptis root is free? He is adding a lot of it."

Leng Yue drank a glass of spiritual spring water and took a fever-reducing pill. Immediately, she felt less dizzy and her vision was gone.

Get ready, put on your clothes and leave.

Huo Jingxuan was so scared that he was like the father-in-law beside the old Buddha, protecting her the whole time, and helping her button up, tie her belt, put on her socks and shoes when necessary.

"Ancestor, you are still sick, where are you going?

Just tell me what you want to do, isn't it okay for your husband to do it for you?

Just lie down on the bed. Liaochen said you are just too tired and sick."

Leng Yue smashed the table with one palm and said, "Liaochen is just a quack doctor, you hear him talking nonsense!

Now you see, my illness is cured. I am going to settle the score with that unscrupulous pharmacy that sold me fake medicine and made me drink bitter medicine. I am going to destroy the place.

Letting that kind of beast spend the night with my money is simply an insult to my money."

The people outside were very happy when they heard Chen say that Leng Yue had woken up, and were waiting outside to visit her!

Suddenly I heard the sound of a table breaking in the room, and I thought it was Huo Jingxuan getting angry with Leng Yue!

An Er was the first one who couldn't sit still anymore. He rushed over and kicked the door open.

He also shouted, "If you are angry, just vent it on me. My wife is still sick, don't scare her."

An Shi followed closely behind, and the other secret guards, Black Feather Army, and people from the Qi, Liu, Sun, and Tang families also followed.

Then they saw Leng Yue hadn't had time to retract her hand, and everyone knew that they had misunderstood Huo Jingxuan.

But they didn't feel guilty at all. Instead, they were overshadowed by the good news that Leng Yue had recovered.

They all came forward to show concern for Leng Yue, "Madam, you are fine. You are amazing. You had such a high fever, but you got better in no time."

Because there were so many people, Huo Jingxuan was pushed to the back.

But Leng Yue still didn't forget that it was An Er who rushed in first to care about her. She directly took out a roast chicken from the space and stuffed it into An Er's hand.

"You are really reliable. You care about me at the critical moment. This is a reward for you. Take it and eat it. I will buy you new clothes tomorrow and give you a big, thick red envelope."

An Er smiled so hard that his teeth were visible but his eyes were not. "Madam is the best. Long live Madam."

He also did not forget to show off his roast chicken to Huo Jingxuan, "It's delicious, I have it and you don't, I'm jealous of you, jealous of you."

As a result, he showed off too much and one of his chicken legs was snatched away by Huo Jingxuan.

An Er glared at him, turned around, found a corner farthest from him, leaned against the wall with his back to the wall, and ate the roast chicken.

After everyone exchanged a few simple greetings, they were all very angry when they heard about the fake medicine, and their immediate reaction was the same as Leng Yue's.

They all went back to their rooms, picked up their weapons and prepared to break up the place.

If we were to say who is the angriest person here, besides Leng Yue, it would be An Yi.

Because they refused to open the door when he knocked, he finally broke in by force. Not only was he treated like a sucker and ripped off, but he also spent a whopping twenty taels of silver to buy a medicine that was originally worth only two taels of silver.

In the end, the broken door actually asked him for a full eighty taels, until he became anxious and kept pestering him and wouldn't let him leave.

He also said, "We have a lot of people, so let's just waste time today. If you don't pay, you won't be able to leave. Let's see who has more time, us or your patients."

These words hit An Yi's sore spot, and he took out a hundred taels of silver before leaving.

Those bastards actually dared to sell him fake medicine and even mixed so much Coptis chinensis in it. They are like lapdogs biting the moon, not knowing how high the sky is or how deep the earth is.

An Yi was so angry that he left the address of Yong'an Hall and rushed over first to serve as the vanguard. He always felt that those bastards would run away.

As it turned out, his guess was right. When he arrived, Yong'an Hall was already empty.

All that was left were some furniture and cabinets that couldn't be moved, and not even a single medicine was left.

When Leng Yue and the others arrived, An Yi was smashing the broken furniture!

Then he reported to Leng Yue, "Madam, this is really weird. When I came here just now, it was a good medicine shop with a lot of medicinal materials!

You see, I was the one who kicked the door down. There’s even my footprint on it!

The building was deserted in the blink of an eye. Even moving shouldn’t be so fast!”

"There must be a mechanism." This was Leng Yue and Huo Jingxuan's first reaction.

Then everyone followed this idea and started looking for it together, and they found the mechanism.

There is an operating room behind a broken painting on the wall. There are three circles in total, and each circle corresponds to a medicine cabinet.

One contains real medicine, one contains fake medicine, and the other is just a broken cabinet with no medicine at all.

An Shi also discovered a basement in the backyard, which was filled with medicinal herbs, some real and some fake.
