719: Chapter 723: Suspecting Poison
Liao Li, in high spirits, brought the roast at over to the emperor’s side.
“Taste it!
The flavor is indeed pretty good!”
The emperor looked at him, remained silent, and set aside the roast at that he had handed over.
Liao Li coughed lightly, “Won’t you taste it?
The flavor is really quite good.”
The emperor glanced at the tender and colorful roast at; its tantalizing aroma wafted before his nose, making one’s mouth water.
“Gurgle…”
The atmosphere beca sowhat awkward.
Liao Li laughed heartily, “I knew you’d be tempted, I brought this especially for you.”
The emperor couldn’t quite express his feelings, but he did not hesitate any longer, prepared to stuff the roast at into his mouth.
However, a second before he was about to bite down, he rembered sothing.
With a serious expression, he removed a silver hairpin from his hair and pierced it into the roast at.
Liao Li had seen him do this in the past.
He frowned slightly, “What, are you afraid they might have poisoned the roast at?”
The emperor replied calmly, “Although I think that’s unlikely, it’s always better to be cautious.”
Liao Li nodded thoughtfully.
After a mont, he pulled out the silver hairpin, which was now coated with a thin layer of black.
The emperor’s facial expression instantly turned grim.
Liao Li coughed lightly again, “I directly stole this at from their hands, so the poison inside…”
Emperor: “…”
Seeing a trace of embarrassnt on Liao Li’s face, the emperor seed to understand why he had been so insistent on encouraging him to eat the roast at earlier.
It turned out that he was concerned about him getting poisoned.
The emperor curled his lips slightly.
Reaching into his chest, he took out a small bag made of beast skin.
After unfolding it, a type of yellow powder was revealed.
He sprinkled a bit of the powder evenly over the roast at.
After a while, he used the silver hairpin to test for poison again.
Just as he had expected, the at no longer contained any poisonous substance.
The emperor let out a sigh of relief.
He had thought so; how could the beast n here possibly know about poison?
He pushed the antidote wrapped in beast skin towards Liao Li, “Just take a pinch and wash it down with water, and the poison will be neutralized.”
After hearing this, Liao Li breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly pinched so antidote into his mouth and gulped down several sips of water.
He also didn’t forget to deliver so to Bai Ling.
The emperor, eating the sowhat cold roast at, had a sharp red gleam in his eyes.
Originally, he was a student from a remote village in the ancient country.
He had been born prematurely and had always been a weak child.
Later on, his mother gave him the humble na Gousheng, hoping it would make it easier for him to survive.
But as a child, the village children often made fun of his na.
In order to escape this plight, he studied hard for many years, hoping to attain a scholarship.
The villagers, who were accustod to bullying him, replaced all his books with idle gossip and wild tales on the eve of his township exam.
Out of anger, he took these books intending to argue with the villagers, but on his way, he was struck down by a bolt of divine light.
When he ca to, he found himself in a completely different place.
He ended up in an astonishingly magical yet exceptionally primitive place.
The idle gossip and wild tales that had once infuriated him, turned out to be of great help after he filtered through them here!
He renad himself ‘Emperor’, hoping to control others’ lives like an emperor and not be treated with frivolous disrespect ever again.
However, he did not anticipate that his lifespan would drain away so rapidly here.
No!
He hadn’t yet truly experienced the joy of being in power, he couldn’t die, he couldn’t die!
Desperate, he began fervently flicking through all the books.
