Chapter 3495: Chapter 3495: Don’t Let Anything Slip
Now, it’s left them in such a predicament, truly a dilemma.
Ge Leader received the death glares from the pharmacists, momentarily stunned, and looked at them with confusion, "What’s wrong, is it very tricky?"
He thought he was disturbing their development of the antidote, and couldn’t help but ask.
Previously, he was hoping to quickly develop the prescription, so those evil cultivators outside could survive. You know, he doesn’t have many people left under him.
But now, looking at Xiao Yi lying there, he just wishes the pharmacists delay their development of the prescription.
The best would be, to wait until Xiao Yi breathes his last before developing the prescription!
"Ge Leader, this antidote isn’t easy to develop."
"Right, these pharmacists are all more skilled than us and are our seniors. Us being here really makes us seem disrespectful to our elders."
The pharmacists brought by Ge Leader put aside their resentment against him and spoke one by one.
"Uh."
Ge Leader was at a loss for words from the words of the pharmacists.
The only conclusion he got from their words was that Xiao Yi is truly deeply poisoned, to the point that so many pharmacists are powerless.
At this moment, he completely overlooked that the pharmacists he brought didn’t even go in to see Xiao Yi, not even seeing the poisoned person’s face. How then do they know whether he is poisoned or not?
"Ge Leader, there’s still matters at the City Lord Residence, perhaps we should head back first."
"Yes, yes, I’m not of much help here either. Antidote creation isn’t my specialty, the master is still waiting for me to brew pain-relief decoctions."
Ge Leader: "..."
So, they have to go back?
They just arrived, and he was planning to enjoy more of Xiao Yi’s embarrassing state, but now they have to return?
However, going back is fine, staying here just means smelling the stench in Xiao Yi’s room. He really doesn’t wish to smell it anymore, he’d better report back to the master quickly.
"Alright, we’ll head back then. The master is still waiting for me to report back."
He nodded and led the pharmacists back the way they came.
...
Yang Tianxiu looked at the returning Ge Leader, so angry he almost wanted the person before him executed.
"So, you just came back?"
What kind of people did he send out, why isn’t there a single one who can carry out his orders?
From this perspective, Xiao Yi used to be the most capable person to handle his affairs. Now that he’s down, Yang Tianxiu realizes that Xiao Yi was the only reliable person around him.
"Reporting to master, Xiao Yi is indeed seriously poisoned and still unconscious. I saw it with my own eyes," Ge Leader replied.
"You saw it yourself, what about the pharmacists, did they see it too, did they check Xiao Yi’s pulse?" Yang Tianxiu asked coldly.
"Uh."
Ge Leader’s heart skipped a beat, momentarily speechless.
He actually forgot to have the pharmacists he brought check Xiao Yi’s pulse to confirm the poisoning.
If that’s the case, wasn’t his trip a waste of effort, utterly failing the task the master assigned him? If he tells the truth, wouldn’t the master have someone kill him?
Now, he could only brace himself and nod.
"Yes, master, the pharmacists all confirm that Xiao Yi is truly poisoned, also over on Xiao Yi’s side, there are quite a few pharmacists, and they all have no means for the antidote situation."
As he spoke, he feigned a regretful appearance.
When he gets back, he’ll have to give those pharmacists a warning, ensuring they don’t let anything slip.
