Chapter 491: Abnormal Poison Doctor
I saw those men in black robes stand up and walk towards the counter. Wan Laoer deliberately slowed down his pace and listened to the movement downstairs.
"Shopkeeper, stay at the hotel."
The shopkeeper heard their accents and they didn't sound like locals, but this place was located on the border of Texas, and the people coming and going were all businessmen or escorts from all over the place. He was not surprised and asked, "What kind of room do you want to stay in? We have superior rooms, middle rooms, inferior rooms, and large bunk beds."
"Two superior rooms."
Although the man in black robe had an awkward accent, he spoke clearly and concisely.
The shopkeeper immediately smiled brightly. Although the weather was bad today, he still managed to sell four superior rooms, which was much better than usual.
Wan Laoer was listening carefully when he saw the man in black robe coming upstairs.
They glanced at Wan Laoer who was still standing outside the door. Wan Laoer's heart skipped a beat in fear, and he quickly said to the waiter in the room as if nothing had happened: "Waiter, hurry up and prepare food for us. We are starving."
As soon as the waiter fetched the hot water, Wan Laoer told him to serve the food, and he was also not in a good mood.
"Okay, sir, I'll be right there."
As Wan Laoer was speaking, he had already entered the room and closed the door.
The door blocked the black-robed man's gaze.
When Wan Laoer heard the sound of the door opposite opening and closing, he breathed a sigh of relief. He leaned against the door and broke out in a cold sweat.
"Waiter, could you please go to the pharmacy and buy me some herbs? I will definitely not treat you unfairly, but you have to do it quietly and not let anyone know."
Wan Laoer was very sensible this time and was not stingy anymore. He directly took out one or two taels of silver and gave it to the waiter.
"This is your reward. If you do a good job, I'll give you more when you come back."
When the waiter saw so much silver, his eyes lit up. He didn't know how long it had been since he had earned some extra money. This plain-looking old man was so generous. He quickly put the wooden barrel on the ground, wiped his hands on his clothes, his eyes no longer smiling, and carefully took the silver.
"Thank you, sir. If you have any instructions, just tell me. I will do it beautifully for you and won't let anyone find out."
The waiter deliberately lowered his voice when he said the last sentence, making it seem like he was very experienced in doing this kind of thing.
Wan Laoer quickly handed the list of medicinal materials he had just written to the waiter. The waiter didn't even look at it, but stuffed it into his arms, picked up the empty wooden barrel and walked out.
Not long after the waiter went out, Jia Yanbing came back.
"Mr. Yan, how is it? Has the letter been sent?" Wan Laoer quickly pulled Jia Yanbing into the house.
Jia Yanbing was covered in snow. Wan Laoer brushed the snow off his body and took off his cloak.
Jia Yanbing was shivering all over. Fubao ran over, took Jia Yanbing's cold hand, and dragged her to the stove.
"Sir, come and warm your hands. Why are your hands so cold? Where is your hand warmer?"
Fubao discovered that Jia Yanbing's hand warmer was missing.
She clearly remembered that her husband brought a hand warmer with him when he went out.
Wan Laoer also looked at Jia Yanbing with a puzzled look on his face.
"I seem to have forgotten my hand warmer at the post station. I was in such a hurry to get on the road that I was careless for a moment."
There was an uneasy look on Jia Yanbing's face. When he went out, he met an acquaintance. Fortunately, he was wearing a mask and the other party did not recognize him. However, because he was too panicked, he put the hand warmer on the counter of the post station and forgot to take it.
When Fubao asked about it, he realized that he had lost something. No wonder his hands were so cold.
"Mr. Yan, did you meet someone?" Wan Laoer was a little nervous at this time and became very cautious. Once people are cautious, they will think too much and associate everything they see with bad things.
He is now afraid that the killers who are hunting down Jia Yanbing have also come to this county?
Fortunately, Jia Yanbing shook his head and said, "No, I met an old friend, but I was wearing a mask, so he didn't recognize me. But he was so nervous that he lost the hand warmer."
Wan Laoer breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't the killer, it would be fine. It was just a lost heater. He could just go buy another one. Now for him, there was a choice between a heater and a killer. He would rather buy a cart of heaters than meet the killer.
Jia Yanbing was a little embarrassed, "Brother Wan, I'm really sorry, I was so flustered that I lost my composure."
"It's OK, Mr. Yan, don't blame yourself. A heater is not worth much money. But you will suffer without a heater. Why don't I ask the store to get you a hot water bag? That way you can be warmer."
Jia Yanbing nodded, "Then I'll have to trouble Brother Wan."
"I just saw the waiter walk out of our room and head straight out of the store. Is there something you want him to do?"
"Ah? Did you see it?"
Wan Laoer secretly cursed the waiter in his heart, saying that he was so rash. He must not let those black-robed men on the opposite side discover any clues.
"Mr. Yan, just now Fubao remembered that there is a prescription for Five Poison Powder in the notes written by the old doctor in the medical book, so he prepared to buy some herbs to make some poisons himself. It can be regarded as our amulet, which is better than this broken dagger of mine."
As Wan Laoer spoke, he took out the dagger from his body and threw it on the table. This dagger was snatched from Gousheng. The handle was rusty. I wonder where he got it from.
However, the blade was sharpened quite sharply by Gousheng. I wonder how Gousheng is doing now. I guess he has been redeemed by his wife and taken home?
Wan Lao Er shook his head vigorously and muttered to himself: "My own affairs are a mess, and I still worry about others."
Jia Yanbing was slightly surprised after hearing what Wan Laoer said. "Girl, are you sure you can make the Five Poison Powder? I have heard of this poison. I heard that the process is quite complicated. You are so young. If you are not careful, you may be poisoned. The risk is too great."
"What? My daughter will be poisoned? That won't do. I have to quickly chase the waiter back and get the money back. I won't buy it anymore."
Wan Laoer quickly stood up from the stool and was about to rush out.
But he was held by Fubao's little hand.
"Dad, what the gentleman said is just a possibility, but you have to believe in Fubao, I will definitely succeed. Grandpa said I am very talented."
"My daughter, you can't fool me. I don't know anything, but I know that poison is no joke. If you are really poisoned, I will have no choice but to follow you."
Wan Laoer regrets it so much now. He shouldn't have been so accommodating to his daughter. Why didn't he think about the fact that his daughter is still young?
Wan Laoer hit his head hard in annoyance.
Fubao shook Wan Laoer's arm and said, "Dad, I won't be poisoned. Fubao wants you to enjoy happiness. We can't die."
Fubao pulled Wan Laoer back to sit on the stool, then looked at Jia Yanbing and said, "Sir, you have to believe in Fubao. Nothing will happen to Fubao. And after this incident, Fubao has thought it through. In the future, Fubao will also study poisons. The three of us don't know kung fu, and without poisons, we may not be able to go to the capital. The problem now is where can we find the book on making poisons?"
Fubao felt that even if they didn't have the kung fu to beat them, they could still win by surprise. As long as they had something that could ensure victory in one blow, what they lacked was the opportunity. As long as they found the opportunity, their poison would work wonders.
Jia Yanbing touched his nose. What a coincidence! The man he met at the post station just now was a master of poison. He had dealt with him before, but this man had a weird temper, always kept to himself, and was elusive. Most importantly, he had suffered losses at the hands of that man.
"Well, Fubao, I think I can help you, but I don't know if that person is still here? And I don't really want to see him, there's something going on between that person and me..."
Jia Yanbing was unable to say anything. That man was a pervert who liked handsome men. He had kidnapped him and almost lost his anus. He was still scared. So when he saw that man, he dodged him as if he had seen a ghost. He even dropped his hand warmer, even though he was usually so calm.
