Surprisingly, these people gullibly believed it. In the blink of an eye, even Hei Zi, who had been beside Hua Ling, disappeared.
Xiao Jiu looked at Tang Youyou, who was as calm as ever. He whispered, "Do you already have an answer?"
Tang Youyou nodded. "Yes."
"Was that Brother Li just now..."
Tang Youyou replied, "It was him."
They waited for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Then those two people sauntered over. But this Brother Li was in a sorry state now, completely devoid of the arrogance and charm he had at first.
Tang Youyou gave a half - smile and strode towards him. She grabbed his sleeve and took a quick glance, confirming her suspicion.
This was the very person who had secretly put the poison before.
Since the poison was from the herbs of the Qingyun Sect, it was clear that this person was a spy sent by the Qingyun Sect.
Tang Youyou exposed him in public. "I wonder where Brother Li went to relieve himself that it took you so long. Is it because you're not in good health, or is there something on you that shouldn't be there?"
Before he could respond, Tang Youyou interrupted him and continued, "Just now, the medicine blown by Young Master Xiao Jiu would react when it came into contact with the pollen of the ice flower. If one doesn't take the medicine in time, they'll itch terribly and die with their skin breaking."
The more Tang Youyou spoke, the more shocked Brother Li became. Listening to her words, his face turned extremely ugly. He turned to look at Xiao Jiu in the distance, who was staring at him, and said with a faint smile,
"Brother Xiao Jiu, I stayed in the cave for a long time just now. I'm afraid I got contaminated by the so - called pollen. Now I'm itching all over. I don't know why. Please give me some antidote, Brother Xiao Jiu."
Hearing this, the people present all gasped in surprise. Some were straightforward and immediately retorted, "What do you mean by 'afraid' and 'don't know why'? Brother Li's excuse is just too far - fetched, isn't it?"
Another person directly exposed his uneasiness and said, "As soon as we mentioned using the powder to test, you started making all sorts of excuses. First, you pretended to go pee, then you claimed to be unwell. But when we were running for our lives just now, we didn't see you having so many problems."
They were right. Seeing this, Tang Youyou took out a bottle of pills from her bosom. She walked up to the man and poured out one pill.
At the same time, the little creature that had been sleeping on her wrist sensed something was wrong and immediately darted out. It bit the man on the neck and then quickly scurried back into Tang Youyou's sleeve.
Feeling the sudden pain, Brother Li immediately glared at Tang Youyou angrily. He shouted, "Brother Tang, what are you doing? What kind of thing is that white snake? Will its bite poison me?"
Hearing this, Tang Youyou calmly nodded. "Of course it will poison you. This white snake is called Bai Qi. In the Western Regions, it has poisoned countless people. So whether you'll survive or not, I have no idea."
After hearing Tang Youyou's words, the man was instantly stunned. He stood there looking at Tang Youyou and then smiled. "Brother Tang, I know you're just testing me. It's just a childish trick. I won't take it to heart. As long as you apologize to me and give me the antidote, I'll forgive you."
His high - sounding words instantly made Hua Ling, who was on the side, feel speechless. This guy probably had no idea about Tang Youyou's real capabilities.
He had seen Tang Youyou's ruthless and unforgiving ways of killing people!
Thinking of this, he looked at the man who was still blabbering in front of Tang Youyou without knowing the danger. He couldn't help but feel a bit sorry for this guy's future fate.
Once you provoke this "living hell - king", you're basically a goner.
Tang Youyou smiled again. "I'm sorry, but I really don't have the antidote for this. All I have is a prescription for this poison."
Hearing about the prescription, Brother Li immediately frowned. He urged, "Since you didn't manage your snake well and it bit me, of course you should deal with this prescription. Why are you telling me this!"
It seemed that this man was determined to rely on Tang Youyou.
But Tang Youyou said calmly, "I'm afraid I can't do much. Because there's only one kind of herb that can save you if you want to be cured of the poison."
"What is it?"
Tang Youyou replied, "The ice flower!"
She emphasized these two words deliberately, which caught everyone's attention.
Those playboys were all smart people. They naturally understood what Tang Youyou was up to this time.
Some who wanted to watch the show echoed, "Oh, this is really a tough situation. If there's no ice flower, Brother Li will basically be a dead man. It's said that Bai Qi from the Western Regions is the king of all snakes. Those bitten by it may not survive for a quarter of an hour. Poor Brother Li."
These few words instantly changed the man's face, who had been harboring some hope. He looked up at Tang Youyou angrily and said, "Young Master Tang, what are you doing? I've already said that I don't have anything. You don't have to frame me like this, do you?"
But Tang Youyou sneered. "Brother Li, you're not telling the truth. I'm just following everyone's wishes to see if you've embezzled something you shouldn't have. If you really don't have it, then go back into the cave and see if there's any ice flower."
Hearing this, the man immediately took a step back. He of course knew there was ice flower here, but those ice flowers were poisonous, and their toxicity was even stronger than the one Tang Youyou had given him.
Finally, this man compromised. He dejectedly took out a small flower from his bosom. The flower in his hand was dull, nothing like the gorgeous ice flowers in the cave.
Sure enough, this was the guy.
The man stared coldly at Tang Youyou. He didn't intend to pretend anymore and directly said, "Whether I have the ice flower or not is my own business. If you don't have the ability to get it, don't blame me."
Hearing this, Xiao Jiu became even more angry. "Even if you got the ice flower by yourself, you shouldn't have poisoned us again! The person who died from the poison before lost their life because of you."
Now everyone understood that this man had no good intentions towards them.
Hei Zi wasn't at all shocked when he heard this result. But at this moment, shouts came from the forest in the distance.
"Young Master Tang, Young Master Tang..."
Those people were constantly looking for Tang Youyou. They seemed exhausted. And at the front of these people stood Ye Yue.
