Chapter 165: Stealing chicken but losing rice

Shi Lin was naturally very grateful.

"Xiao Zhang, this is really troublesome for you."

"It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome at all. Senior brother, please eat quickly. I'll go to the house and keep an eye on it first." The young man known as Xiao Zhang said with a smile, and then walked into the house.

Shi Lin subconsciously looked into the room, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

After all, the place where Lu Dingtai boiled the medicine was clearly stipulated, and no outsiders were allowed to enter.

Now that Xiao Zhang walked in, it was actually a violation of the rules. Naturally, Shilin was a little nervous.

But when he saw Xiao Zhang walking in without making any unnecessary movements, sitting on the stool and carefully observing the fire, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

Then Shi Lin secretly laughed that his nerves were a little too tense. Although Xiao Zhang has not been in the martial arts gym for a long time, his background has been carefully investigated and he can only be admitted after confirming that there are no problems. Such a person How could he be a bad person?

So Shilin squatted on the ground and began to eat with confidence.

One was inside and the other was outside, chatting while eating.

"Brother, when will master wake up?"

"Who knows, but Master is a scholar of heaven and man, and has strong skills, so he will definitely be fine."

"That's right." Xiao Zhang said with a smile, but his attention remained on Shi Lin outside the room.

The moment he lowered his head to eat, Xiao Zhang lowered his hand calmly, and a small medicine bag slipped down his sleeve into his hand.

Then he stood up, as if to check whether the liquid in the jar was boiled down, and then he leaned down and blocked the outside view with his body.

Taking this opportunity, he quickly opened the lid of the jar and was about to throw the small medicine bag in his hand.

At this moment, a cold voice came from behind him.

"What are you doing?"

Xiao Zhang was so frightened that he shivered, but his reaction was not unpleasant, and he immediately planned to hide the small medicine bag in his hand.

But his reaction was quick, and Zhao Ya's reaction was even faster. He grabbed his wrist in a blink of an eye. With a little force, the little Zhang couldn't bear the pain and screamed miserably.

Zhao Ya picked up the small medicine bag from his hand with a cold face and looked back at Shi Lin, who was already shaking into a ball.

"Go and call Senior Brother Shen and the others."

"Yes Yes!"

Shi Lin was completely panicked.

Just when he was eating, Zhao Ya suddenly appeared next to him like a ghost. Then he rushed into the house without waiting for himself to react, grabbed Xiao Zhang, and found a small medical bag from his hand.

No need to ask, there is obviously something wrong with this little Zhang.

And he became an accomplice.

When he thought of this, Shilin wanted to slap himself several times.

But it was too late to regret it now. He could only crawl forward and run forward to inform Shen Dao and the others.

Here, Zhao Ya simply removed all the joints from Xiao Zhang's body, even his jaw, to prevent him from biting his tongue and committing suicide again.

Shen Dao and the others came very quickly. Almost as soon as they finished dealing with Xiao Zhang, they rushed into the house.

"What's going on?" Shen Dao asked first.

Zhao Ya raised the small medicine bag in his hand, and then pointed at Xiao Zhang on the ground.

"He planned to poison Master's medicine, but I caught him."

The expressions of Shen Dao, Miao Shaocheng, and Xu De changed instantly.

Fortunately, Zhao Ya discovered it. If this guy really succeeded, wouldn't the master be poisoned to death out of ignorance?

Miao Shaocheng was so furious that he rushed forward and picked up Xiao Zhang from the ground.

"Tell me, who ordered you to come here?"

Of course, Xiao Zhang was speechless. His jaw had been removed by Zhao Ya a long time ago.

At this time, Zhao Ya stepped forward, patted the excited Miao Shaocheng gently, asked him to move out of the way, then squatted down and gently pushed his chin.

With a click, Xiao Zhang's chin was pushed back again.

Then Zhao Ya asked: "Tell me, if you don't want to suffer, just tell me everything you know."

Unexpectedly, this Xiao Zhang was silent.

Shi Lin, who had always been uneasy, immediately became anxious when he saw him like this. He had to know that he was responsible. If he couldn't explain it clearly, he would be ruined.

So he shouted: "Zhang Jia, are you still going to resist at this time? Please speak quickly."

But when Xiao Zhang heard this, he sneered, glanced at Shi Lin and said, "Speak, what are you talking about? Aren't you the one who ordered me?"

Shilin's face suddenly turned pale, he shouted anxiously and stammered.

"You...you can't spit on others!"

"Senior brother, it's time for you to accept it." Xiao Zhang put on an expression of no hesitation and started biting randomly.

The people present naturally knew that what he said was not true. If Shi Lin really wanted to harm Lu Dingtai, he could do it himself, so there was no need to go through all the trouble to get through him.

But the thief's bite penetrated three points to the bone. Xiao Zhang made it clear that he didn't want to say anything, and everyone was unable to do anything for a while.

At this moment, Zhao Ya suddenly said: "Actually, I would have guessed it even if you didn't tell me. Yuan Chenfeng should be the only one who can secretly poison and try to kill my master, right?"

Zhang Jia sneered repeatedly, "You like to talk about who is who, but it was Shi Lin who ordered me."

This Shi Lin was as paralyzed as mud, his eyes were full of despair, and he was speechless.

Zhao Ya glanced at him and suddenly asked: "Shi Lin, what is your relationship with the old Liu? Why did you replace him after he had diarrhea?"

Shi Lin was shocked and said hurriedly: "Brother Liu and I are cousins ​​and worshiped in the martial arts school together, so we have the best relationship. This time something happened to him, so I volunteered to help him. Who can I never imagined that something like this would happen.”

After Zhao Ya heard this, he turned back to Zhang Jia, "So you guessed this and gave Lao Liu the medicine?"

This time Zhang Jia did not deny it, "Yes, so what?"

Then he bared his teeth at Shi Lin and said, "Senior brother, just admit it. If you hadn't ordered me to drug Lao Liu, you wouldn't be able to take this job as a doctor."

"I...I'll kill you, you nonsense bastard!" Shi Lin's eyes were about to burst and he was about to rush up and beat Zhang Jia.

Miao Shaocheng kicked him to the ground and said with murderous intent: "Be honest with me, and we will settle your account later."

Shi Lin immediately became obedient and collapsed on the ground without even moving.

At this time, Zhao Ya looked at the arrogant Zhang Jia and couldn't help but laugh, "How much did Yuan Chenfeng give you? To make you feel so comfortable with death?"

"Hmph!" Zhang Jia snorted coldly and didn't answer at all.

"Let me guess, with Yuan Chenfeng's hypocritical character, he will definitely not come forward in person for this kind of thing. Instead, he will send his subordinates to contact you. His subordinates will definitely give you a generous reward, which will be enough for your family. To spend the rest of your life, that's why you took the risk and would rather die than speak, right?" Zhao Ya said lightly.

The expression on Zhang Jia's face became slightly unnatural.

Zhao Ya pretended not to know, and continued: "But have you ever thought about it, Yuan Chenfeng can betray even his martial arts colleagues, so how can he care about this agreement with you? Do you believe it or not, after you die, even your family They have to die too, no one can survive.”

Sweat appeared on Zhang Jia's forehead, and he hissed: "Impossible, he promised me personally."

"Does a personal promise count? And when you die, who will know about the agreement between you?"

Zhang Jia finally collapsed. He lowered his head and said, "Yes, it was indeed Yuan Chenfeng who sent someone to contact me and promised me an extremely generous reward, so I did this."

After hearing his own admission, there was a commotion in the room.

Even though Shen Dao had a good temper, he was completely angry at this time.

Miao Shaocheng even cursed loudly.

"Yuan Chenfeng, you are such a despicable person, I've fucked you up."

At this time, Zhang Jia also changed from his previous arrogance and said with a pleading look on his face: "Uncle, I know that I have done an irreparable mistake. I don't want to live, but my family is innocent. "

Before he finished speaking, Miao Shaocheng cursed angrily: "Fuck you, who is your junior uncle?"

With that said, he rushed forward and kicked Zhang Jia away.

Miao Shaocheng's strength, coupled with the hateful kick, made Zhang Jia vomit blood after landing, and he was about to die.

Miao Shaocheng was still upset.

"Now you know that you are from the martial arts school. When you poisoned my master before, why didn't you think that we were your master uncle?"

Zhao Ya didn't stop him either.

Because if this kind of person is not killed, there will be endless troubles.

He walked closer to Zhang Jia and saw his lips moving slightly, his face full of pleading, as if he still had something to say.

Zhao Ya knelt down and said, "If you have anything else to say, just say it."

"I...I know I deserve to die...but my family is innocent...please...please..."

Before finishing the last word, Zhang Jia died.

Miao Shaocheng, who was next to him, also heard it and couldn't help asking: "Xiaoya, this guy's family..."

"Don't worry about it. If I guess correctly, when he takes action tonight, Yuan Chenfeng will have already sent people to kill his family." Zhao Ya stood up and said.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, but they felt that Yuan Chenfeng could really do such a thing.

The only blame is that Zhang Jia believed Yuan Chenfeng's words and ended up like this.

Although the suspicion of Shi Lin has been cleared, it is obviously not suitable to stay at the pharmacy anymore.

Someone took him away.

Then Zhao Ya decided that his brothers would take turns cooking the medicine for his master, and he would no longer rely on others.

At the same time, this storm must be suppressed and the scope of influence should not be expanded as much as possible.

After all, this is a sensitive period. If people are panicked because of this incident, it will be very detrimental to the stability of the martial arts school.

The storm just passed.

Although the medicine should not have been successfully administered, for safety reasons, this jar of medicine cannot be used.

Zhao Ya and the others brought the medicinal materials and brewed another jar.

This time, the four of them did not leave, but stood aside and watched.

Taking this opportunity, Xu De asked: "Xiao Ya, how did you discover this Zhang Jia?"

"Yes, how did you know that he was going to poison Master?" Miao Shaocheng also asked.

Zhao Ya smiled, "Actually, I wasn't sure at first that someone was going to take action. When I came to the pharmacy, I found that there had been a change of people. The old Liu was replaced by Shi Lin. According to Shi Lin, Old Liu suddenly I had diarrhea so bad that I couldn’t even get out of bed, so he came to relieve me.”

"I had doubts at that time. After all, this old Liu is an old man from the martial arts school. Although his strength is not very high, he is also a second-level warrior. How could he suddenly have diarrhea?"

"But I didn't find anything strange about Shilin at that time, so I left first, but I always felt something was wrong, so I went to Lao Liu's place. I found out that the reason why he had diarrhea was because someone had given him medicine. Now it’s clear.”

"There must be someone secretly planning all this, and this person should have a good relationship with Shilin, so we found a way to push him to this position."

"Then I sneaked back to the pharmacy and hid in the dark to observe. Sure enough, I discovered that Zhang Jia was up to no good. You all know what happened next."

After listening to Zhao Ya's explanation, everyone couldn't help but sigh.

Thanks to Zhao Ya's carefulness, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Damn it, I used to think that although Yuan Chenfeng was a bad person, he was still a master as famous as his master. He should have some skills. I didn't expect him to be so despicable." Shen Dao said a rare curse word.

"Bah, what qualifications does he have to be as famous as our master? He is just a son of a bitch." Miao Shaocheng cursed.

Everyone also knew Miao Shaocheng's temper, so they all laughed.

The four senior brothers waited until the medicine was boiled and carried it into the ward before they dispersed.

After Zhao Ya returned to the house, he placed the small medicine bag on the table and studied it carefully.

"Ghost snake grass, black willow buds and mercury saltpeter..."

Relying on his understanding of poisons, Zhao Ya discerned their composition and deduced their efficacy in this way.

After a long time, Zhao Ya raised his head, with a faint excitement on his face.

"Interesting, these medicinal materials are not too rare, but when combined together, they can actually have an effect on a half-step fifth-level warrior."

The reason why he said this was because Zhao Ya just dipped his hand into some medicinal powder and put it into his mouth at the risk of his own life.

Then Zhao Ya felt that the energy and blood in his body became disordered. Although with the blessing of the powerful liver talent, this feeling soon disappeared.

But Zhao Ya still noticed the extraordinary power of this poison.

You must know that since unlocking the kidney, your realm has been slowly improving.

Now the blood exchange is about to be successful, and then he will cross the peak of the fourth realm and reach the fifth realm in half a step.

In this situation, one feels poisoned. One can imagine how overbearing this poison is.

But this is exactly what Zhao Ya is in urgent need of now.

After all, most of the poisons Zhao Ya has mastered are poisons, and they are basically only useful for warriors below the fourth realm. It is difficult for them to be effective above the fourth realm.

It can be said that Yuan Chenfeng stole the chicken but lost the rice this time, and instead gave Zhao Ya a big gift.

While Zhao Ya was concentrating on studying the poison he had obtained, Yuan Chenfeng sat in the middle of the Chenfeng Martial Arts Hall and said in a deep voice: "Are you done?"

"Back to the master, it's all done."
