C356 (2/2)

Before the matter of the Spirit Calamity Grass had been resolved, the Chinese Medicine Competition had begun. Although Shi Lei was very curious about Qi Yang's death, because from the looks of the marks on his body, he could tell that he was immediately squeezed to death.

Qi Yang did not have any kind of physique, so everyone knew about this. But if he was killed in his own room, it would be very strange.

But after inspecting the monitoring system, he discovered that no one went in. At that time, when Hua Rou brought the people in, she was still healthy, and even walked out from the door to check on Hua Rou's traces, looking like a guilty person.

”What Qi Yang told me at that time was that although he wanted to kill you, it was not enough to kill you with poison. He even took out a camouflage medicine and said that he specially prepared it for you.”

Hua Rou looked at Shi Lei and said: ”Although your words are very sincere, but thinking about it now, I feel that there are a lot of questions.”

No matter how foolish Qi Yang was, he knew that a sweat pill would only be an itch for Medical Sage level people like Shi Lei. It wouldn't have much of an effect on them, so why did he speak in such a manner at that time?

”Perhaps, he was just finding a random excuse and wanted to send you away.”

Shi Lei laughed: ”He wasn't the one who released the Five Poisons Cartilage, but this person definitely wants to do something of similar nature, it's just that I didn't think that he would do it too late.”

”Then …”

”Do you know about the plague?”

Shi Lei suddenly thought of something, and said.

”Plague?”

”That's right, a poison that causes a plague in the body directly damages the balance of the body's energy and is irreversible.”

Regarding the plague, the earliest possibility recorded was back in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, when the legendary plague god spread out the plague virus in West Qi City. However, that was a legend after all, and there was still a gap with reality.

Later on, in order to collect herbs in Yunnan and other places, they knew that there were too many distempers, so they could only use poison to protect themselves.

It was only then that the Pestilence Potion would gradually appear and become a fixed formula.

Hearing Shi Lei talk so much, Hua Rou immediately knew that something was amiss.

”Now that Qi Yang is dead, I wonder if the plague will even appear.”

Qi Yang's death still brought a lot of repercussions, at least for the current High Dragon Manor, there were dangers everywhere.

”Forget it, there shouldn't be any serious matters, right? Let's deal with the Chinese Medicine Competition first and then talk about it.”

The Chinese Medicine Competition was held as scheduled, and the second day's Ranking Tournament had also reignited. Shi Lei's rank was actually only average, as for whether or not he could enter the elimination round, it still depended on fate.

It was unknown when Huangfu Hua came to Shi Lei's side, but he smiled and said: ”I will be going in later, I must definitely pass the points competition, I am still waiting for the elimination round, with your help!”

Shi Lei smiled slightly: ”Relax.”

Dozens of people stood together, waiting for the official signal to enter.

”What is this smell?”

Suddenly, someone smelled something.

”That's right, it's a bit pungent. Did someone install a smelly egg on their body!?”

Someone began to laugh.

”No, that's not the smell of rotten eggs. I feel that it's a little familiar, it feels like poison.”

Shi Lei also smelled it, after looking carefully, he already knew what it was.

”This is bad!” There's plague! ”
