Chapter 18 Collapse
"Zhao Guang, how about I perform a magic trick for you?"
Zhao Guang: “…”
Change the magic
I see you change your expression quite quickly!
Zhao Guang complained in her heart, but saw a servant of the Chen family suddenly appear and protect Chen Xue and the other person behind him. Then she saw Chen Xue stretch out her white jade-like hand and wave it at him.
Before Zhao Guang could understand what was going on, he heard a familiar voice.
"Are you sure you want to join forces with us to deal with Guo Qiang?"
“That’s right!”
"I also know Guo Qiang's weaknesses. It's easy to deal with him!"
The conversation sounds very familiar. Isn't this what he just said?
What's going on?
Why……
Zhao Guang couldn't understand why what he had just said was heard again. Aren't words like spilled water? You can't take them back. How did Chen Xue do it?
Zhao Guang simply couldn't understand this mysterious method, so his face turned ugly and he felt a little scared.
Fear of the unknown.
Is it possible for a human to be able to grasp what he said and then easily repeat it?
No wonder she said she would change her magic
This is not magic at all!
It's simply a magical method, okay?
While Zhao Guang was shocked, Chen Xue put away the recorder with satisfaction, feeling that it was worth the money she spent on exchanging it.
"Tell me, if Guo Qiang heard this, what would his reaction be?"
Hearing Chen Xue's words, Zhao Guang's legs went weak and he fell to the ground with a thud, his face pale.
He didn't know or see how Guo Qiang reacted because he was already dead at that time.
"Let's talk it over, you two. We are in the same group. There's no need to be so decisive!" Zhao Guang quickly recovered and said gritting his teeth.
"Were you thinking just now that you would take the money and not do the job, and you would also want to deal with us?" Chen Xue said deceitfully.
Zhao Guang's heart skipped a beat. How did she know that? Could she have the ability to read minds? That's right, she could even reproduce the voices of the past, so it's not impossible that she could read minds.
"You two, I was wrong. How about you please forgive me for a while?" Zhao Guang begged for mercy quickly.
"I don't want your money anymore. I promise I won't cause you any more trouble. As long as you let me go..."
"Just because you beg for mercy, we can wipe out our previous hatred. Isn't that too naive of you to think so?"
Chen Xue curled her lips. If they hadn't been lucky before, they might have really fallen into his trap.
"You're going too far." Zhao Guang stood up abruptly, his face filled with anger. "Even if you can recreate our previous conversation, so what? This isn't the capital anymore. As long as you're in the exile group, you can't spread this news."
The more Zhao Guang thought about it, the more proud he became. As long as he kept a close eye on them and cut off all the ways for them to spread information to the outside world, he would be able to control them at will.
"Really?" Chen Xue suddenly laughed, looking harmless. "Do you think I don't have the ability to transmit sound over a thousand miles?"
"If you don't believe me, I can try to see if Guo Qiang can hear you and whether he will send someone to hunt you down."
"you……"
Zhao Guang was stunned. Yes, she could even reproduce the sound, so she was definitely not an ordinary person. It was not impossible that she could transmit sound over thousands of miles.
And he didn't dare to bet, because if he lost the bet, he would be dead.
"No, please don't..." Thinking of this, his expression changed again, revealing a flattering smile, "Don't be angry, both of you. I was just joking. I was a little excited just now."
Zhao Guang was scared.
This Chen Xue is so mysterious and terrifying. She can even reproduce sounds. What else can't she do?
He could only try to please them first and then think of other ways.
"Well, are you two hungry? I'll go get you something to eat..." Zhao Guang immediately looked like a lackey.
This scene left the nearby prisoners stunned. You know, they saw with their own eyes yesterday that Zhao Guang roared and said he wanted to kill Chen Yuan.
Today he was like a lackey, fawning and bowing in front of Chen Yuan. This change made everyone at a loss for words.
"We don't dare eat the food you give us!" Chen Xue waved her hand. "As long as you don't cause us any trouble on the Path of Exile and just do us a few small favors, that's enough!"
"That's no problem, leave it to me." Zhao Guang patted his chest. As long as he was not asked to kill Guo Qiang, it would be fine.
"Really? Why do I feel like you don't seem to be very sincere?"
"How could it be, I can swear..."
"Swearing is fine, but you injured a few of our servants yesterday. Shouldn't you compensate us for our losses..."
Zhao Guang's face darkened. So they were waiting for him here. Money was his lifeblood. How could he possibly take...
"I know Guo Qiang's weaknesses. It's easy to deal with him..."
The familiar voice made Zhao Guang's legs go weak. He fell to the ground with a thud and yelled, "I'll pay, I'll pay!"
He felt a little regretful now. If he had known that words could cause trouble, he would have kept quiet. However, Chen Xue had given him too much at the time, and he acted impulsively...
It's too late to say anything now.
I just hope I can spend money to ward off disaster!
He is trying to please them now, and when this matter is over, he will make them pay double.
Zhao Guang took out the money from his pocket with a sad face and handed it to Master Chen, "You two, this is all I have..."
Chen Xue signaled the servant to take the money bag away, and then said with a hint of meaning, "Are you feeling unwell now?"
Zhao Guang frowned, wondering what this meant. He pondered over Chen Xue's words, and when he thought about it, he really felt unwell, but he didn't know where.
"This is the antidote!" Chen Xue suddenly took out a bottle, poured out a black pill, and then the servant came over with the pill.
"You poisoned me." Zhao Guang's eyes widened, and then he looked incredulous. "When did you poison me?"
It would have been fine if they didn't say anything. As soon as they did, he started to feel itchy all over his body and felt very uncomfortable. If nothing unexpected happened, he must have been poisoned, and the servant had the antidote in his hand.
Thinking of this, he snatched the antidote from the servant's hand without hesitation and swallowed it in one gulp. The pill was poisoned, and the effect was indeed very obvious. He immediately felt that the itching on his body was gone.
Just as I was feeling relieved, I heard Chen Xue's frustrated voice, "Oh, I made a mistake. That pill was the real poison!"
"Puff~"
Zhao Guang almost vomited blood. What did he just do?
Took a poison pill?
Wait, if this isn't an antidote but a poison, then wouldn't that mean I'm poisoned by two things?
"It's not two kinds," Chen Xue suddenly explained kindly for him, "You weren't poisoned before..."
Zhao Guang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that, and then he heard Chen Xue's next words, "But, you swallowed the poison, so you were also poisoned!"
Zhao Guang: “…………”
After all, I'm still poisoned.
When Zhao Guang thought of this, he felt a stomachache. What the hell was going on? Not only was he caught, but he was also poisoned. Is there anyone worse off than him?
Woo woo woo, mom, I want to go home, I don’t want to play anymore!
