by Harrison 17:56,Dec 29,2023


Zachary West didn't care so much anymore. He explained the Chinese medicine formulas that came to his mind in an orderly manner. As for whether these medicines can cure cholera, he would leave it to the palace doctor to slowly identify.

"Liuhe Decoction, Huoxiang Zhengqi Powder, Fuzi Lizhong Decoction, intravenous infusion..."Lilac Cyrus murmured silently. These were all prescriptions she had never heard of, especially the last one, intravenous infusion. According to Zachary West's explanation, it seemed to be directly Injecting liquid into the meridians of the human body to rehydrate patients with depletion is simply fantastic and extremely daring!

"There are some herbs that I have heard mentioned by doctors, and they are indeed effective in curing diarrhea. But there are some herbs that I have never heard of..."Hank Ferber frowned and began to think about whether the prescription would work.

Zachary West patiently told the two of them the characteristics and effects of each medicinal herb, so that the palace doctor could collect the medicinal materials.

At this time, the pen, ink, paper and inkstone prepared by Lilac Cyrus finally came into use. She listened and recorded with all her concentration, fearing that she would miss any medicinal ingredients.

"Young Master Zachary, Lilac will definitely give this prescription to her father and ask him to send it to the palace doctor for identification as soon as possible. If the prescription you mentioned is practical, she will have enough qualifications to join a first-grade academy even if she does not go to Beijing for an interview."

"I don't care..."Zachary West tried his best to explain. His saliva was almost dry. Now his throat was hoarse. He couldn't help but pick up the fish soup next to him and start drinking it.

When Lilac Cyrus noticed this scene, her face suddenly turned red because it was the fish soup she had drunk. However, Zachary West next move surprised Lilac Cyrus and Hank Ferber...

"Pfft!"Zachary West squirted out the fish soup, and with a panicked expression, he picked up the ingredients in the soup and looked at it carefully.

"What happened to Mr. West? Was he swallowed by a fish bone?"

"Poisonous! There is poison in the spicy and sour fish soup!"

Zachary West hurriedly got up and ran towards the guest of honor seat without looking back. The fish soup was mixed with the smell of poisonous herbs such as goldenrod, caowu, and southern star. Although those who accidentally ate it would not die, they would become weak and even lose the ability to move. , is the most traditional anesthetic formula. If this soup is not a masterpiece by chance, then someone must be planning something against the right path of Martial Arts World. He must inform his uncle and uncle immediately...

"Uncle! Uncle! Don't eat the food here! The food and wine at the birthday banquet are poisonous!"

The Birthday Feast at the Soames Mansion, the elders of various sects indulged their disciples in eating, drinking and having fun in order to enhance their relationship. As for themselves, they followed the etiquette of guests, sat around the banquet, talked about the past and present, and talked about the joys and sorrows of traveling together in the world when they were young.

Zachary West rushed into the guest of honor seat in fear. Not only did he interrupt the elders' "thinking about the past", but he also made arrogant and rude remarks, asserting that the food and drinks at the birthday banquet were poisonous and his outrageous behavior was outrageous. Not to mention the cold expressions of Merchant Soames and many elders of the sect. , even Albert Bartley and Tymon Irwin were extremely angry and scolded the young man with a dark face.

"Yun'er, don't be rude! It doesn't matter if you talk nonsense in the villa. Today is Senior Su's birthday, so you are not allowed to mess around here!"

"I'm not kidding, it's true. This fish soup is poisonous! I'm very familiar with the smell of this anesthetic..."

"How presumptuous! Walter, take your third senior brother down quickly!"

Albert Bartley shouted angrily, Walter Peck rushed forward in panic, and forcibly pulled away Zachary West who was unwilling at all costs.

"Brother Su, don't be offended. My nephew is not mentally sound. He occasionally says shocking words and offends many times. I'm really sorry."

"Forget it, forget it, today is a big day, we won't argue with the younger generation."

Merchant Soames sighed in disappointment. He didn't expect that his birthday would lead to such a farce. However, everyone was afraid to drink freely, so he ordered his servants to test the food with silver needles to see if the food and wine were poisonous.

The poison test results showed that the silver needle neither turned black nor changed color, which indirectly proved that Zachary West was making trouble unreasonably.

"Third Senior Brother, what happened to you today? Master has told me not to cause trouble at the birthday banquet. Why do you still want to..."

"Walter, believe me, fish soup is really poisonous!"

"But you also saw that Merchant Soames a silver needle to test the fish soup, and it was not toxic at all."

"Silver needles are not omnipotent!"

"Senior brother, you must not be confused by strange fantasies again."

"I……"

Zachary West was speechless. To be honest, he was not sure whether his inference was right or wrong, but the uneasiness in his heart made him believe that it was something and not something that was not.

At this moment, a chicken bone suddenly struck Zachary West on the back of his head.

"What are you doing!"

"You're not welcome here! Get out!"

"Well said! Even better! Get out of here, those rude people!"

Zachary West looked back angrily and saw Celtic Laurier teaming up with Mitsuru York to blatantly throw leftover bones at him. When other disciples of the sect saw this, some clapped their hands, some laughed, and some added insult to injury and joined the team to throw garbage at Zachary West.

"Sword Manor has been completely embarrassed by you."Yeshua Irwin was even more ruthless. She threw a pot of wine at Zachary West, leaving him soaked and embarrassed.

"Third Senior Brother, let's go quickly!"Walter Peck was afraid that everyone would get angry and start beating people, so he quickly pulled him to hide behind the trees in the pond to avoid being harmed.

Lilac Cyrus and Hank Ferber saw Zachary West being humiliated. Although they wanted to stop everyone's evil deeds, they were unable to do so. The disciples of each sect were too drunk to listen to their advice.

"are you OK?"

"I'm fine."

Lilac Cyrus took out her embroidered handkerchief and carefully helped Zachary West clean up the stains on his body, while Hank Ferber looked serious and asked solemnly.

"Mr. West, are you sure the soup is poisonous?"

"Nine times out of ten."Zachary West nodded in shock. He didn't expect that even his uncle and uncle would not believe him, and said that he was not mentally sound...

"Third Senior Brother, I think that was your illusion. I drank two large bowls of fish soup, and I'm still not feeling well now."

"Young Master Zachary, Lilac also drank some soup and didn't feel uncomfortable."

"You guys will feel better soon!"

"Mr. West, does he have an antidote? Mr. Ferber also ate a lot of fish..."

"Where can I find an antidote? However, I have a way to detoxify it."

"Appreciate further details."

Now that there was a way to detoxify, Lilac Cyrus and Hank Ferber both breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the entire The Soames Mansion, they were probably the only ones who believed Zachary West and suspected that the fish soup might be poisonous.

"Follow me."Zachary West led Lilac Cyrus and the others to the wellhead, fetched a large bucket of water and placed it in front of Hank Ferber.

"Mr. Ferber, drink this bucket of water quickly."

"Drinking water can detoxify?"

"Yes, you can detoxify after drinking it."Zachary West smiled maliciously, making Lilac Cyrus and the others look indifferent.

Hank Ferber hesitated for a few seconds, then resolutely raised the bucket and gurgled down a bucket of water. Anyway, just drink water...

"...I'm done drinking."

"Very well, open your mouth. Open wider..."

Hank Ferber was completely unable to understand Zachary West's intentions and could only follow his instructions and open his mouth. Lilac Cyrus stared at the two of them without blinking, wondering what method Zachary West used to help Hank Ferber detoxify.

When the time came to witness the miracle, Zachary West directly inserted his index finger into Hank Ferber mouth and lightly hooked the base of his tongue...

"Ugh!"

Blah blah blah...

The feeling of nausea immediately made Hank Ferber vomit on the spot, and the food in his stomach splashed all over the floor. What he had just eaten was instantly spit out with benefits.

"Haha... Young Master Zachary is such a talented person, Lilac admires him endlessly."Lilac Cyrus couldn't help but laugh, pinching her pretty nose and stepping back. At this time, she finally understood Zachary West's antidote.

Hank Ferber, who looked handsome and unrestrained, had vomiting and tears streaming down his face, and Zachary West felt happy in his heart.

"Brother Han, don't stop. Keep drinking water and vomiting. It will take three to five treatments at least."

"This... Dare I ask Mr. West if there is any other way to detoxify?"Hank Ferber burst into tears. Although this method is good, it is too troublesome.

"No. This is a universal antidote for poisoning. You can try it if you accidentally eat it and get poisoned in the future. The effect is outstanding!"Zachary West snickered proudly. He finally made the handsome guy embarrass himself in front of the beautiful woman.

"Miss Cyrus, you also drank some fish soup, or..."

"Thank you, Mr. Young Master Ferber. Lilac would rather break the jade into pieces than destroy it completely."

Lilac Cyrus was daunted. Unless it was a life or death situation, she would not use this method to detoxify. Fortunately, Zachary West said that the soup is not very toxic and will only make people dizzy, sleepy and weak, but will not kill them.

"Walter, go drink some water too."

"Do I want it too?"

"One more person means more effort. I think today's birthday banquet is very unusual. If you treat me as a brother, just trust me once."

"But... okay. As a condition, Third Brother will help me do chores for a week!"

"no problem!"

Under Zachary West's seduction, Walter Peck also followed Hank Ferber example and vomited several times, even squeezing out the steamed buns he had eaten at the inn at noon.

As Lilac Cyrus said, Zachary West initially felt very mediocre and did not look like a knowledgeable person at all, but as he got to know him more deeply, Hank Ferber felt more and more that he was not simple.

Hank Ferber began to trust Zachary West's intuition and suspected that someone was going to be detrimental to the righteousness of the Martial Arts World, so he found Calvin Cyrus and summoned the disciples of the Leshan Sect to perform 'gastric lavage' according to Zachary West's detoxification method.

The disciples of the Leshan Sect were disgusted with Zachary West, but they did not dare to disobey Calvin Cyrus orders and could only obey and detoxify.

However, the Leshan sect disciples who had suffered a lot had to say harsh words to Zachary West. If nothing happened tonight, he would definitely be left with nothing to eat.

Frankly speaking, Zachary West also hopes that everything will be safe tonight. After all, if the elders are poisoned, it will be impossible for them, a group of newborn calves and disciples who have not yet left the sect to gain experience, to resist an ambush from foreign enemies.

The birthday banquet started at five o'clock in the afternoon, and two hours passed unknowingly. Although it was not completely dark now, the sun had already set.

The maid The Soames Mansion lit up the lanterns in the garden, and the fireflies shone brightly like stars in the sky, illuminating the entire Beppu.

Disciples from all sects had enough to eat and drink, and they couldn't help but show off their skills. They performed sword fighting on the lawn. The elders looked around the friendly atmosphere in the garden and nodded happily.

However, just as everyone was having a good time, Lilac Cyrus eyes were covered and she collapsed in Zachary West arms.
