Chapter 1536: Chapter 1536: Young Masters, This Way Please
“Yes, yes.”
Xia Junfeng nodded repeatedly, not caring that his elder brother was still here, and quickly left.
He didn’t want to delve into whether the poison was airborne, but even if there was a one-in-a-million chance, he couldn’t take the risk.
Ding Nuo Academy.
After several children were brought here, they all began to show symptoms of poisoning.
Because it was mild, they were not yet at death’s door, Elder Ding Nuo had not sent word to the capital’s people but had asked for pharmacists from the Secret Network to come and provide an antidote.
“Elder, the poison in these children is something I really cannot cure completely, only suppress temporarily.”
The pharmacists had taken the pulses of the children and, after hesitating for a long while, finally spoke up to Elder Ding Nuo. The poison was odd indeed—it was so domineering, yet in these children, there was no sign of death from the poisoning.
“If you can suppress it, that’s enough for now. At least there’s a way to figure it out. Here’s what we’ll do—I’ll order someone to bring over a few more pharmacists right away. Together, you might find a way to concoct an antidote.”
Elder Ding Nuo said.
This was the only solution now. The families of these children were all dead, poisoned. Their survival was heaven’s grace to them.
“Elder, should we inform the people in the capital?” asked the pharmacist.
He wasn’t jealous that the Elder was seeking other pharmacists. After all, he knew the poison; it was something he truly couldn’t solve alone.
“No need.”
Elder Ding Nuo rejected the suggestion outright.
The people of the capital all had their own burdens. If they could handle the situation here, they should try their best to do so.
“You stay here and take good care of them. I will be back shortly,” he said, then turned to leave to order people to find more pharmacists.
Qian Jiyun brought An Jiuyue back to the capital, arriving at night.
It was also when the pharmacists brought by Elder Ding Nuo found themselves at a loss with the poison afflicting the children.
Seeing the children getting weaker and weaker, Elder Ding Nuo also began to feel overwhelmed and thought about sending someone to the capital to report to the Third Prince and Prince Zhanyun’s residence.
But before he could give the order, he saw the dusty figures of Qian Jiyun and his companion.
“Young masters, Prince Zhanyun, you’ve arrived?”
Seeing the two, his eyes lit up. He had been thinking about asking the young masters to come back to save these children, and now they appeared before his very eyes.
“Elder, has something happened?”
An Jiuyue, seeing the state of Elder Ding Nuo, knew something had occurred and asked.
“To report to the young master, there have been several family annihilation cases in the capital recently, all involving ministers under the Third Prince’s command, all of them poisoned. The Third Prince sent the surviving children to me, but they’ve also been poisoned. I’ve hired pharmacists to suppress it, but now it’s becoming somewhat… difficult.”
Elder Ding Nuo admitted honestly.
“Take me to see them.”
An Jiuyue’s eyes flashed, and she spoke directly.
“This way, please, young master,” Elder Ding Nuo immediately led the two through the secret passage. In no time, they saw several children lying on beds, their faces somewhat blue, with barely any breath left.
An Jiuyue walked over and checked the pulse of one child.
“It’s Half Puppet Poison.”
She glanced at Qian Jiyun, took out a porcelain bottle from her embrace, and handed it to one of the pharmacists.
“These are antidote pills. Dissolve them in water and have the children ingest it. They are young and not deeply poisoned; half a pill each will suffice.”
