Chapter 25: 25. Food Poisoning Chapter 25: 25. Food Poisoning Song Yan Ning and Ling Yu had just completed their tasks, and the color of their Peace Pendants instantly turned to milky white, signifying that the next ti they entered the Emperor Realm, they would be able to directly access the Middle-level stage.
At the sa ti, in the Task Hall of the Middle-level stage of the Emperor Realm, the big screen displayed the promotion of Song Yan Ning and Ling Yu, as well as their current points.
“That doctor is really impressive. Looking at her points, she must have just arrived not long ago, yet she took on an A-level task and completed it.”
“She must be a genius. I really want to et her.”
“There aren’t many who can complete an A-level task right after arriving.”
“Yeah, I’ve only seen Wuji do that before.”
Qin Yushen heard the conversations around him and turned his head to look at the big screen. When he saw Song Yan Ning’s points, his handso brows slightly raised.
“What’s so great about that? It’s just good luck,” Song Yanxue coldly scoffed with disdain. In her heart, no one could surpass her Brother Yushen.
Qin Yushen gave Song Yanxue an indifferent glance and walked out of the Task Hall. He was sowhat looking forward to eting that doctor.
“Brother Yushen,” Song Yanxue hurriedly followed Qin Yushen. Brother Yushen was the man she liked. Her mother and Yushen’s mother were best friends, and their families were longti allies. Although they were still young, both families had already tacitly approved of their relationship. Otherwise, why would the Song Family give her an entry spot to the Emperor Realm if not to let her spend more ti with Brother Yushen?
When Song Yan Ning erged from the Emperor Realm, she imdiately began to use her Cultivation Technique to advance to the Qi Refining Fourth Level. She had been suppressing her own advancent while in the Emperor Realm. She was not yet familiar with the situation inside the Emperor Realm, and she didn’t dare to take the risk of advancing there. If soone targeted her, it would have been too late for regrets.
Her strength was not considered weak among ordinary people, but if she encountered soone stronger, she would have no way to fight back with her current capabilities. Therefore, she would not reveal her strength unless it was absolutely necessary.
The rich Spiritual Energy swiftly broke through the barrier, and Song Yan Ning imdiately felt a refreshing sensation in her body, filled with a power several tis stronger than before.
Opening her eyes, Song Yan Ning smiled happily, turned to look at the clock on the wall, and then stood up to walk outside.
“Grandpa!” As Song Yan Ning stepped out of the house, she saw Yang Lisheng practicing Tai Chi in the courtyard and joined him, taking up the posture to practice alongside him.
Yang Lisheng nodded and looked at Song Yan Ning, “I’m planning to go up the mountain later, do you want to co with ?”
“Mm,” responded Song Yan Ning with a nod.
Yang Lisheng hesitated for a mont before speaking, “We’re going to set off back to Beijing tomorrow morning. I plan to go up the mountain to see if there are any Lingzhi or wild ginseng to bring back as gifts for your grandfather.”
“Okay,” Song Yan Ning nodded. She didn’t have much of a fondness for the Song Family mbers, but since it was Mr. Song’s grand celebration, she couldn’t go empty-handed. Even if she didn’t like it, she couldn’t tarnish her grandparents’ reputation.
Yang Lisheng stopped his Tai Chi, took the towel around his neck to wipe the sweat from his face, and looked seriously at Song Yan Ning, “Xiao Ning, Grandpa wants to ask you, do you really not want to stay in Beijing when you go back?” He couldn’t bear the thought of being apart from Xiao Ning, but she was still young and needed her parents’ company.
“I don’t want to,” Song Yan Ning replied without any hesitation.
Yang Lisheng sighed deeply, “Then do you hate them?” He wasn’t sure if Xiao Ning understood what he was asking.
Song Yan Ning shook her head, stopped her movents, and looked at Yang Lisheng with a slight look of grievance, “Grandpa, why do you always ask these questions? Do you not like Xiao Ning anymore?” To her, the Song Family mbers were just strangers—what reason did she have to hate them?
Yang Lisheng reached out and affectionately touched Song Yan Ning’s head, a deep sorrow evident in his aged eyes, “Grandpa will always love Xiao Ning, Xiao Ning is the treasure of grandpa and grandma.”
Song Yan Ning flashed a radiant smile, “Xiao Ning loves grandpa and grandma too.”
“Old man, Xiao Ning, ti for breakfast,” Li ixiang called out from the kitchen to the both of them.
“Coming, Grandpa. Let’s go have breakfast,” Song Yan Ning said, taking Yang Lisheng’s hand and walking towards the house.
Just then, an anxious shout ca from outside, “Old Yang, Old Yang, soone needs help urgently!”
Song Yan Ning turned and saw it was Mr. Xu from the east end of the village.
“Hold on, let grab a dical box,” Yang Lisheng didn’t ask what had happened and quickly turned to go inside the house. Generally, when people ca looking for him, it was to seek dical help.
“Uncle Xu, what happened?” Song Yan Ning asked.
“My Dabao, I don’t know what’s wrong. His stomach started hurting after breakfast, and he’s feeling dizzy and nauseous. Old Yang, please hurry,” Mr. Xu urged with deep concern.
“I’m coming, I’m coming,” Yang Lisheng erged quickly from the house carrying a dical box, following Mr. Xu to his ho.
“Grandma, I’m going to go take a look too,” Song Yan Ning told Li ixiang and then ran to catch up with Yang Lisheng and Mr. Xu.
“This child,” Li ixiang shook her head and turned back into the house. She had to put the breakfast back on the stove or it would be cold by the ti the grandfather and granddaughter returned.
By this ti, Mr. Xu’s house was surrounded by villagers both inside and outside, all there to see what was happening.
“What’s going on here? Wasn’t Xu Dabao just fine yesterday? How co he’s suddenly like this?”
“Could he have encountered sothing unclean?”
“Don’t talk nonsense, these days we should believe in science.”
“Uncle Xu has gone to get Dr. Yang, let’s wait for Dr. Yang’s diagnosis.”
“Dr. Yang is here, everyone please make way,” Mr. Xu shouted, leading Yang Lisheng and Song Yan Ning through the crowd and into the house.
The villagers had always had great respect for Yang Lisheng. Anyone who had a minor illness would seek him out, and he usually did not charge them. More importantly, the dical skills of Yang Lisheng and his wife were exceptional; as long as they were consulted, the illness was almost always cured with their treatnt.
Upon entering the house, they saw Xu Dabao clutching his stomach in agony, continually crying out, “It hurts so much… save … I’m in so much pain…”
Yang Lisheng walked swiftly forward, set the dical box on the table, and took Xu Dabao’s hand to examine him.
Song Yan Ning moved closer to Yang Lisheng and looked around the room. She noticed an empty bowl on a table not far away. She walked over, picked up the bowl, and saw so white residue inside. Instantly, she understood.
“Grandpa, take a look at this,” Song Yan Ning handed the bowl to Yang Lisheng.
Yang Lisheng had already reached a diagnosis, but he couldn’t confirm what food had poisoned Xu Dabao. Hearing Song Yan Ning, he took the bowl from her hand and after slling the white liquid, he turned to Mr. Xu and his wife, “Dabao has been poisoned by drinking raw soy milk.”
