Chapter 593: Tense atmosphere
In the city of Sidondis, there are many seemingly inconspicuous dilapidated old houses or cellars, which are actually the entrances to the place where the Merigian family hid their possessions.
These places are not only highly camouflaged, but also protected by formations, and at the same time, there are people secretly guarding them, and the defense is not strict.
However, in the eyes of Mr. Infernal Affairs for nearly twenty years, these places naturally seemed to be open to him, and there was no privacy at all.
One of the basements, after being emptied by the Sujili, was converted into her laboratory by Ai Jin'er.
"It's really a plant toxin ......"
Looking at the serum isolated by her in the test tube in a daze, Ai Jin'er's expression appeared in a momentary trance. But soon she came to her senses and continued to try to detoxify.
"Well, the symptoms are vomiting and diarrhea, and in severe cases, arrhythmias, respiratory failure, and eventually coma or death......" she pondered as she dripped the serum into a row of petri dishes, "If it's a plant toxin, would it be similar to Alocasia......?"
Immediately afterward, she tried to neutralize the toxins in the serum using the various potions at hand.
Soon after.
"It's done! This detoxification recipe should be fine!" Ai Jin'er was in high spirits, "Ginger juice, rice vinegar, mung soybean milk, and heat-clearing and detoxifying ingredients such as bezoar mint should be fine." But we have to hurry up and prepare the antidoteβ"
"Heh, wow, there's no need to be in such a hurry!"
At this moment, a coquettish laugh interrupted Ai Jin'er's muttering, causing her body to stiffen.
"How did you find here?" she silently stopped what she was doing, turned around and said lightly, "Well, it doesn't matter anymore. Since you're here, there's really no need for me to be in a hurry. β
Yin Yimo looked around, and finally looked at Lina beside her: "She is the only one here, and I will leave it to you." I'll order someone to guard the exit. With that, she turned and left.
"Hey, the wicked person will be handed over to the old lady to do, it's really boring. Lena pursed her lips, then looked at Ai Jin'er and teased, "It's been a long time." When the experimental building of the college was attacked, the old lady was worried about you for a while, and later learned that you were still alive and well, and the old lady's little liver fell back into the stomach. β
"Huh. Ai Jin'er smiled contemptuously, "Thank you." β
"Why, you developed an antidote to oleander toxin so quickly?" Lena nodded with interest, "No wonder the stinky imp tolerates you in every way." Anyone who sees a student like you will have a heart of cherishing talents. β
Ai Jin'er showed a hint of pride on her face: "Even today, I am still the best personal apprentice of the teacher. β
"Yes, yes, the best personal apprentice. Lena nodded repeatedly, but the accent was placed on the last four words, "No one is robbing you." β
How could Ai Jin'er still not hear Lina's ridicule, and snorted coldly: "You came here just to show off your might in front of Miss Ben?"
"Isn't that my mother not wanting to make the atmosphere too heavy!" Lena shrugged, "After all, everyone has been classmates before, haven't they?" β
Ai Jin'er smiled coldly and did not speak.
Lena glanced at her, sighed, and said, "Okay, let's get down to business." The termites in Bath Village are said to have been bred by you, but you didn't put them out, did you?"
"Is there a difference?" said Ai Jin'er indifferently, "without me, there would be no your so-called termite beast." There's nothing wrong with you coming to me to get revenge on your adoptive father. β
Lina was silent for a moment, and nodded slowly: "In that case, then the old lady has nothing to say." Do you have anything else to piggyback on for someone?"
Located in the northernmost part of the mainland, most of the surrounding areas are covered with snow all year round and the frozen soil is thousands of miles, which can be described as a barren land in the true sense.
The main reason why the ancestors of the Su Jili family chose to take root here was that this place was more suitable for ice mages to cultivate. But the bitter cold and barrenness of the Far North are problems they have to face.
If you are poor, you will think about change. Since there was no decent local output, the Su Jili family's eyes quickly shifted to the entire continent.
The business-minded Sugilli soon made his mark in the business world. Geely Commercial Bank seized the opportunity of post-disaster reconstruction in the salty and barren continent and spread it throughout the mainland in a very short period of time, which can be regarded as laying the cornerstone of Geely Commercial Bank's rapid development.
After thousands of years of painstaking operation, Geely Commercial Bank has finally become the undisputed boss of the mainland business community, monopolizing many industries. A family located in a barren land once became the richest and largest force on the entire continent.
However, the rapid development and the crazy accumulation of wealth have naturally been coveted by many people. As a result, civil strife broke out in the midst of the conspiracy, and external forces added fuel to the fire. Under the internal and external troubles, the Su Jili family suffered an unprecedented heavy blow, almost hurting the roots.
The Su Jili family, which was reborn after the catastrophe, learned from the pain and kept a low profile, in order to develop steadily in secret. To this day, the Far North City, a city standing on a barren wasteland, is no longer what it used to be.
As the base camp of the Su Jili family and the location of the head office of Geely Commercial Bank, the Far North City gathers a large number of large and small merchants from Tiannan and Haibei, and all kinds of ordinary or strange goods are frequently traded here, which can be said to be the city with the largest daily trading volume in the whole continent.
Therefore, the Far North City is also a typical city with a much larger floating population than local residents. Here, you will not be surprised to meet strangers from anywhere.
But during this time, the city defense of the Far North City was much stricter. Not to mention ordinary caravans, even some time-honored brands that have cooperated with Geely Commercial Bank for hundreds of years have to undergo strict scrutiny at the city gate before they can be allowed to leave.
"Brother Liu, you are the most familiar with our Yu Fengxing, why do you need to check so carefully?"
At the gate of the city, a simple man laughed twice and secretly handed a small money bag to a city guard on duty.
"Eh, shopkeeper, don't hurt me!"
The guard surnamed Liu hurriedly blocked the small money bag: "Forget it in the past, the wind has been tight recently, and I don't dare to accept it." I know about your Yu Fengxing, but I still have to check. Don't embarrass me, if something goes wrong, it's enough for me to die eight hundred times!"
"So serious?" said the honest man in surprise, "What's going on?"
"Don't ask about that. The guard surnamed Liu waved his hand, and then shouted at his subordinates who were inspecting the caravan, "Okay, okay?
"Alright, no problem!" replied quickly.
"Okay, let go!" the guard surnamed Liu waved his hand.
"Thank you, Brother Liu!" The honest man hurriedly smiled and whispered, "Let's remember this part today, and when the wind passes, we will come back next time, and then we will make up for your old man!"
The guard surnamed Liu laughed when he heard this, and then waved his hand and let him go. (To be continued.) )
