Chapter 1341 Playing with Fire is Exciting
Anyone who can still thrive in an organization after having gone through several leaders must have his or her strengths; anyone who is still valued in the court from the old emperor to the new emperor must have some secret unknown to outsiders.
If a family can survive the changes of dynasties and remain standing in the face of danger, there must be a reason for its existence and a secret to its survival.
The Meizu are weak and seem to be destroyed at any time, but they still survive because they are good at using poison.
When dealing with a family like this, either kill them all from top to bottom, or don't do anything. Otherwise, if you don't kill them all, expect bloody revenge.
Don't mess with those who use guns, and don't mess with those who use poison.
"We have to keep some secrets in hand, otherwise they would have died long ago." Wu Mei smiled and said, "Some poisons have no antidote outside, so they are afraid and dare not kill easily, such as the Immortal Fall."
Although she said it with a smile, there was bitterness in her eyes.
If you are not forced to a certain extent, why would you do this?
Everything is done for self-protection, and to spread the word about how terrifying their Meizu is.
"I understand. Sometimes turning yourself into evil is actually a means of self-protection. But it won't happen again in the future. Meizu can hold its head high and don't have to worry anymore." Lei Zhen comforted.
People with low self-esteem often have their bodies covered with thorns, which can explode at the slightest provocation. This is actually a means of self-protection. In reality, they are the most helpless.
99% of evil people are in disguise, because they know that 99% of people are afraid of evil people.
When the weak understand this human nature, they often portray themselves as evil people, do evil and bad things, and use evil to preserve themselves.
This is probably the case with Meizu, which specializes in developing various poisons to create fear.
"Thank you, husband. Take this pill. You will feel a little uncomfortable in the first few days, but it will take at most half a month to eliminate all the toxins in your body." Wu Mei took out a small bottle.
Inside the small bottle was a thumb-sized pill, milky white in color and emitting a strong fishy smell.
Detoxification often means fighting poison with poison.
If the reason is explained scientifically, it is probably equivalent to vaccination, using viruses to kill viruses.
In other words, this pill is also poison, otherwise it would not emit such a strong fishy smell, but it is a panacea for immortals.
Lei Zhen took the pill and put it back into the vial.
"You don't believe me?"
Wu Mei's face suddenly changed, she looked miserable and aggrieved.
She told him everything and gave everything, including her future fate, but all she got in return was distrust.
The blow came so quickly that I couldn't adjust my emotions. It felt like I had been fooled to the greatest extent.
"I believe you, but if the poison is really cured, what will happen to the Long family and Long Shu?" Lei Zhen sighed and said, "I have to give them a reason to restrain me, and I have to show Long Shu's value. If they knew that I no longer needed Long Shu to cure the poison for me, would there be chaos? If the Long family is in chaos, will this famous family be in chaos?"
Wu Mei was stunned for a moment and felt ashamed.
She couldn't see that far and just thought that Lei Zhen didn't trust her, but she didn't expect there were such complicated relationships and considerations involved.
"The Long family itself is in a precarious state because I married Long Shu, and because I have to ask her to detoxify me every three months to stabilize the emotions of the Long family."
"If this string breaks, the Long family will no longer be controlled in order to survive, and then the mountains will be in chaos again."
"So it's not that I don't trust you, but I have to stabilize the Long family. Even if I didn't trust you, would I be so completely open with you? You could poison me to death with just a wave of your hand, let alone communicate with me in depth..."
Wu Mei smiled and gently hit Lei Zhen.
"I was so scared! I thought you didn't trust me anymore. Actually, it's my fault. I'm covered in poison. If I rashly gave you a pill to take, anyone would be scared."
Of course he was scared. The Meizu leader took out a pill and asked people to take it. Who the hell knows what it is for?
No matter how much you trust someone, you shouldn't ask them to take medicine out of the blue, as this can easily lead to misunderstandings.
"If I didn't trust you, we wouldn't be together. If I didn't trust you, I wouldn't let you be in charge of the medical team." Lei Zhen laughed. "With your ability, you can definitely give my troops a slow-acting poison, detonate it when needed, and use it to threaten me."
It seemed like a joke, half true, but there was also his concern.
It's a chronic poison that explodes when needed, just like a remote-controlled bomb. If you don't press the button, nothing will happen, but once it's pressed, it's a big deal.
"You still don't trust me?"
Wu Mei understood and felt wronged, tears welling up in her eyes.
Are you kidding?
Of course not, this is a reminder to myself.
"Why are you still crying? I trust you completely. I've already handed the medical team over to you, and I want you to help me build the strongest medical system."
"If I had any doubts about you, I wouldn't have put you in such an important position, right? My great charmer, Honey, we both want to pamper you, but you need to assist me in my career, because I need you, and that's something no one else can replace!"
Lei Zhen gently wiped away the tears from her face, his expression showing both heartache and helplessness, showing the extremely tense tolerance of an excellent boyfriend facing his girlfriend's willfulness.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?"
"The night before last, he lied to me and said it didn't hurt at all, but it turned out that half of my body was numb from the pain."
"This isn't a lie, it's a sentiment. Be good, stop crying, pack your things, and we'll go into the mountains tomorrow..."
Trust or not is always a false proposition.
No one can be completely trusted, nor can anyone be trusted. It needs to be based on equal exchange and common interests.
Human nature cannot stand the test, and it is best to maintain necessary humanity and vigilance.
For Lei Zhen, he can trust Wu Mei, but not absolutely, even though they have become his bedmates. After all, he has a purpose in mind.
The antidote might be real, but it would likely come with severe side effects.
"I'm playing with fire, but it's so fucking exciting!" Lei Zhen said to himself.
How can it not be exciting?
Honey is a poisonous girl, she is easy to coax because she is young and inexperienced, but Wu Mei is the poison king, she is not so easy to coax.
But even in the uncertain situation, he finally understood the Poison King. No one would believe him if he said he was not playing with fire, and no one would believe him if he said it was not exciting.
But fortunately, Da Wumei did tell the truth.
And they really need him. After all, the fate of the entire clan is in the hands of Lei Zhen.
As for when you can fully trust someone, I'm afraid it will take time to reveal a person's true character. As for the moment, there's no need to worry. Even if the other party has other purposes, he or she has to serve you well first.
All in all, Lei Zhen knew what was going on.
