Chapter 867: Chapter 227 Yelu’s Death_6

”Gentlemen, any thoughts?”

A doctor said, ”Gentlemen, could it be the Mixed Poison Method?”

”Mixed poison?”

Upon hearing this, the other doctors all looked over. At this moment, the doctor said, ”Exactly, the Mixed Poison Method. The fish is not poisonous, the antidote is not poisonous, but when the two are combined, it becomes highly toxic.”

”Hmm, makes sense, but how did those two chefs die? They didn’t drink the antidote!”

Upon hearing this, the doctors said, ”Yes, how did those chefs die?”

”If it’s not the Mixed Poison Method, could the chopsticks, sauce, and silver plates be poisoned?”

Upon hearing this, another doctor said, ”There’s no poison. I tested them, and they aren’t poisonous.”

The doctors were slightly taken aback, wondering how the poison was administered!

The doctors were at a loss, not knowing where to begin checking for the poison. Without knowing what poison it was, they couldn’t apply the correct remedy, and without the correct remedy, how could they detoxify it?

This stumped them all as everyone was filled with confusion.

Just then, they saw Yelu clutch his stomach and exclaim, ”Ah, it hurts like hell, ah...”

He clutched his stomach, screaming incessantly, in agony as if countless little worms were biting his flesh and internal organs.

The doctors immediately stepped forward to administer their methods, performing acupuncture, pulse pressing, bloodletting, using all available treatment methods.

Finally, after relentless efforts by the doctors, Yelu bled from his seven orifices, coughed up blood, and died!

Seeing Yelu’s death, all the guests present stood up in shock, faces full of terror. How could this happen, how could it be like this!

But the fact remained, after reigning over Mianshui for more than ten years, the city’s undisputed underworld king died like this, succumbing to his favorite indulgence.

The entire Mianshui was utterly astonished.

Meanwhile, outside Mianshui City, at Chaotic Tomb Ridge, two people from the Yelu Mansion parked the carriage here, and a guard said, ”Alright, just dump them here. Let the wild dogs have them.”

”Alright.”

Saying so, the two directly tossed the bodies of Wu the Swift Blade and his disciple at Chaotic Tomb Ridge.

Then they drove away. After they left, Wu Zhong appeared with several Fishing Guild Disciples, and seeing the two bodies on the ground, someone said, ”Uncle Zhong.”

”Give them the antidote.”

”Okay.”

The Fishing Guild Disciples obediently administered the antidote to the master and disciple, who quickly opened their eyes suddenly, followed by violent coughing.

Uncle Zhong looked at the two and said, ”Gentlemen, you worked hard this time. Here are silver notes worth two thousand taels; it’s a token from our Guild Leader. Take the money and leave Huangzhou Prefecture immediately.”

Upon hearing this, Fast Hand Wu said, ”I understand. Brave man, please thank your guild leader for me, for allowing me to avenge my great grievance. I won’t take the money.”

...

Yelu’s death immediately alarmed the entire Mianshui County, also causing those who were preparing to unite to eliminate the Fishing Guild to be cautious.

Guests invited today began to gradually return home.

The leader of the Beggar Sect, Zhou Peng, looked regretful. It was hard to find a patron, but who would have thought this patron would fall? What’s he supposed to do next?

He had deeply offended the Fishing Guild.

Would the Fishing Guild spare him?

As he pondered, suddenly someone appeared in front, blocking his path.

”Guild Leader Zhou, long time no see!”

Zhou Peng looked up abruptly and saw that it was Chen Wang from the Fishing Guild blocking his way.

Zhou Peng was startled, taking a step back, intending to leave, but then someone emerged from behind him: ”Guild Leader Zhou, trying to leave? Today we’ll take care of you, brother!”

”Chen Heng!”

Zhou Peng looked at the approaching Chen Wang and Chen Heng and said, ”You, what do you guys want?”

Chen Wang and Chen Heng laughed, ”To take your life!”

Half an hour later, Chen Wang and Chen Heng, injured, walked out and said, ”Damn, this guy’s got some skills, huh? You okay.”

”What’s there to worry about, just a scratch.”

The two said as they left the alley, where Zhou Peng’s body from the Beggar Sect lay, and on the afternoon of Zhou Peng’s death, the Fishing Guild completely absorbed the South City Beggar Sect.

Suffering the same devastating blow was the Firewood Guild’s Liu Rong.

And many local small guilds, meaning after today, there were no more small guilds in Mianshui.

From now on, Mianshui only had one guild, the Fishing Guild, and henceforth the four districts of Mianshui had only one ruler, the Fishing Guild.

At this time, County Magistrate Tang Wannian also returned to the county government, greatly shaken by what he had witnessed today: Yelu dying so suddenly in front of him.

Moreover, they couldn’t even determine how the poisoning happened. It was downright horrifying. If they could kill Yelu without anyone knowing, they could also poison him!

Tang Wannian felt a chill as he returned to his county office.

He saw someone sitting in his county magistrate’s seat.

Tang Wannian was furious, ready to scold, but then the person slowly raised their head and looked at Tang Wannian.

Upon seeing this person, Tang Wannian shivered and respectfully said, ”I, Tang, yield, from this day forth I’ll serve the Fishing Guild loyally.”

Sitting in the magistrate’s seat, Zhou Chu smiled, ”Mr. Tang, you are wise to understand the situation, so this position remains yours.”

Upon hearing this, Tang Wannian thanked him profusely, and Zhou Chu turned to leave. Seeing Zhou Chu about to leave, Tang Wannian said, ”Guild Leader Zhou.”

”Temporary Guild Leader.”

Zhou Chu corrected him, and Tang Wannian said, ”Yes, Temporary Guild Leader Zhou, did you poison Yelu?”

Zhou Chu smiled but didn’t answer, turning and leaving.

Only Tang Wannian remained, now filled with thoughts of Zhou Chu’s meaningful smile.

The fluttering sound of wings...

A messenger pigeon flew into the Fishing Guild’s ranks, and Xiao Hu caught the pigeon, finding Chen Jie.

”Jiu Si, we have news. Yelu is dead, and all other factions in Mianshui have been eradicated. Now it’s just our Fishing Guild left in Mianshui.”

Chen Jie said, ”Good, good, now I can rest assured.”

Seeing Chen Jie saying this, Xiao Hu leaned over and said, ”Jiu Si, I have something I want to ask you.”

”Go ahead.”

Chen Jie looked at Xiao Hu, and Xiao Hu said, ”The fish wasn’t poisonous, and the antidote wasn’t poisonous, and even the combination of fish and antidote wasn’t poisonous. How exactly did Yelu get poisoned?”

Upon hearing this, Chen Jie smiled, ”You want to know?”

”Yes!”

Xiao Hu nodded vigorously.
