332: Chapter 332 Do You Really Bear to?
Looking at Liu Wan Nian, who had fallen to the ground with white foam at the mouth and an ashen face, Sun Pinghui exclaid anxiously, “Qin, what’s wrong with him?
Weren’t the two poisons on the door not mixed together?”
Qin Han frowned and replied, “I had not expected dicine King to plan human nature so exquisitely!
The two poisons on the door were rely a diversion.”
“Wait for outside.”
After finishing speaking, Qin Han entered the inner chamber alone, pulled out the needle bag he carried with him, and quickly drew three Golden Needles, placing them on Liu Wan Nian’s chest.
No sooner had the Golden Needles touched him than Liu Wan Nian stopped foaming at the mouth.
Imdiately after, Qin Han took out a small porcelain bottle from his person, poured out two pills, and placed them in Liu Wan Nian’s mouth.
A mont later, Liu Wan Nian’s complexion returned to normal, and he slowly awoke.
“What happened to ?” Liu Wan Nian saw Qin Han squatting by his side and asked, sowhat startled.
“You were poisoned just now.
Mr.
Qin saved you,” Zhong Yuanliang called from outside.
“Poisoned?” Liu Wan Nian asked in confusion, “I clearly didn’t mix the two poisons together just now.”
“The two poisons on the door are secondary.
The real deadly elent is the air inside the room.
The two dicinal materials on the door would only beco deadly when combined together, but they are far less potent than the poison you suffered from.”
“However, when the two dicinal substances on the door mixed with the air inside the room, they turned into a much more potent deadly poison.”
Upon hearing this, Sun Pinghui looked at Qin Han in shock and said, “The mixture of solid and gaseous substances, how did dicine King achieve this thousands of years ago?”
“That’s why he was called dicine King!” Qin Han said calmly.
Zhong Yuanliang, however, dismissively said, “So what if he was dicine King?
The poison was still neutralized by Mr.
Qin, wasn’t it?”
“Don’t underestimate the poison concocted by dicine King.
If I were not skilled with the Soul-locking Three Needles, Liu Wan Nian wouldn’t have lasted until I administered the antidote,” Qin Han remarked, glancing at Zhong Yuanliang.
After hearing Qin Han’s words, Liu Wan Nian broke out in a cold sweat.
He quickly said, “Mr.
Qin, is the ‘Thousand Gold Prescription’ really that important?
Should I just have soone blow up the entire ancient tomb?”
“So, your way of solving problems is this violent now?” Qin Han said with a hint of amusent upon hearing Liu Wan Nian’s suggestion.
“It’s mainly because the poisons in this tomb are too bizarre.
We simply have no confidence in dealing with them,” Liu Wan Nian explained sowhat helplessly.
“My duty is to ensure that there are no more casualties in this tomb.”
Qin Han frowned and said, “Your way of solving problems might be thorough, but it isn’t the right way.
Besides, I didn’t say that I can’t neutralize the poison here.”
Sun Pinghui also stepped forward and said with displeasure, “This is the tomb of dicine King Valley’s ancestor, dicine King!
How can you simply suggest blowing it up?
Does your Ninth Bureau always act without thinking?”
“Mr.
Sun, please forgive my words,” Liu Wan Nian said with a wry smile.
“I an no offense to the ancestors of dicine King Valley, it’s just professional habit…”
“Humph!” Sun Ping grunted and didn’t speak any further to Liu Wan Nian.
Qin Han paid no more attention to the others and walked straight to the cenotaph in the center of the tomb chamber.
After opening the cenotaph, inside were several bamboo scrolls.
He collected the bamboo scrolls, not bothering to look at them, and turned to enter the second tomb chamber.
Perhaps Qin Han had already figured out dicine King’s thod of poisoning, so in the next two chambers, he quickly retrieved the bamboo scrolls inside the cenotaphs.
But in the last chamber, Qin Han stopped at the door, standing there for a long ti without making a move.
Zhong Yuanliang watched Qin Han lost in thought and whispered, “Mr.
Qin, is there sothing strange?”
Qin Han shook his head and said, “No, it’s very normal, there’s not a trace of dication on the door, nor any residue in the air, but the more normal it seems, the more normal it feels!”
“Could it be that after passing the earlier trials, the last chamber is a gift?” Zhong Yuanliang ntioned.
Qin Han didn’t even want to explain to Zhong Yuanliang.
A gift?
Do you think this is like leveling up in a ga?
Sun Pinghui also spoke with a grave expression, “Qin, your dical skills are already impressive, I believe you will bring glory to traditional Chinese dicine in the future.
There’s really no need to risk your life for a to as precious as the ‘Thousand Gold Prescriptions.’ This last chamber is too eerie.”
“Do you really an that?” Qin Han asked with a bit of sarcasm.
Showing a rare serious expression, Sun Pinghui slowly said, “Compared to you, I think you are more important than the ‘Thousand Gold Prescriptions.’ Books are lifeless, but people are not.”
“Give it up!
With dicine King’s quirky nature, he might have placed sothing unsolvable in the last chamber, and besides, the first three chambers combined, we already almost have half of the ‘Thousand Gold Prescriptions.’ There’s no need to be too greedy.”
Sun Pinghui said this, but in reality, he was more reluctant than anyone could understand because he had an additional connection – he was a native of dicine King Valley, a true descendent of the dicine King, seeing his ancestor’s items here yet unable to take them.
One can only imagine how that feels…
At this mont, Liu Wan Nian beca an observer.
As long as Sun Pinghui agreed, he would blow up this place without hesitation.
anwhile, above the ancient tomb, a young man in black spoke to another similarly dressed person:
“Hey, did you hear?
Our director actually went to apologize to that guy nad Qin Han.”
“I heard about it, I really don’t understand what the director is thinking.
Since when do we in Bureau Nine need soone else’s approval to conduct our affairs?”
“Maybe the director thinks it’s better not to lose our own people and use them as pawns instead.”
“Possibly, the director has always avoided unprofitable deals!”
“Right, hahaha…”
Suddenly, their laughter stopped abruptly as they stared at each other, shocked, hissing sounds escaping from their mouths.
Looking again, both of their throats had a knife blade protruding from them, and behind each stood a person in black, masked, one hand around their necks, the other holding the hilt of the blade.
In just a few breaths, two live lives had passed, their eyes filled with unwillingness as they stared dead-eyed at the already dim sky.
“These are the last two,” said one of the masked persons.
“Yeah, the combat strength of Bureau Nine is terribly weak!”
“They’re all core disciples of sects, not really skilled.”
“Tis have changed.
Forrly, core disciples of sects were incredibly strong, unlike today’s sect disciples, who are just like the second generation of the common world, good-looking but useless!”
“Let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s et up with the others and prepare to enter the tomb!”
“Yes!”
In the tomb!
Suddenly, Qin Han pushed open the door of the last chamber and walked straight in.
Since he couldn’t discern any tricks, rather than stand here making wild guesses, he preferred to go in directly.
Even after Qin Han entered the chamber, he detected nothing unusual.
“Could it really be as Yuan Liang said, that this chamber is a gift?” Qin Han murmured.
“Yuan Liang, looks like you were right for once!”
However, no one responded to Qin Han’s words.
Frowning, Qin Han turned back only to find Zhong Yuanliang, Liu Wan Nian, and Sun Pinghui had all fainted on the ground.
This indeed startled Qin Han; sothing that could incapacitate three people without his notice suggested that dicine King’s test this ti was truly formidable.
He was just about to go back to the three n when a voice suddenly rang out.
