Chapter 182: I Will Come for You All My Life (178)
“However, as the picture book says, they are assassins who are so tight-lipped that they are usually forced to take poison.
I'll go show them.
If that's the case, I can try to prepare an antidote for them.
If they had the antidote, they wouldn't be so tight-lipped, right?"
"That's a good idea. How confident are you?"
“I can’t be sure about this.
"First, I don't know what kind of poison they were poisoned with. Second, the toxicology is very complex. I can only give it a try."
"Okay, then I'll take you to have a look.
If you can really get them to talk, it will be a breakthrough.”
When they arrived at the prison, they saw the three assassins tied to the rack. They were now covered with wounds and the ground was covered with blood. It must have been painful for their wounds to be exposed in the cold weather and soaked with water.
However, Luo Shu did not sympathize with them, as he saw that they were all unconscious and wanted to save himself the trouble.
On the surface, Luo Shu was taking their pulses, but in reality, he was using space to conduct a secondary test while taking their pulses.
After such tests, it was basically confirmed that the poison they were all infected with was a strange poison called Intoxicating Tears.
Those who are poisoned by this poison will feel a bursting sensation in the heart and tears will flow from the eyes when the poison takes effect. The poison will last for twelve hours, and the person will become blind and die from a ruptured heart.
The formula of the poison has been obtained by testing the poisoned person, and as for the antidote, she has to try it herself first.
Because the poisoned people had taken the antidote regularly before, some values were also extracted during the space detection.
Qin Yu looked at her frowning face and comforted her: "Don't be too stressed. It doesn't matter if you can't find out the truth." Then he whispered in her ear: "I heard that the Fifth Princess has sent people to the Western Region to investigate this matter. I believe there will be results soon."
"I'm fine. I did find out the poison in them. As for the antidote, I have to go back and look it up in the book and try to mix it."
"Really! What's the poison in them?"
"Drunken Tears."
"What kind of poison is this?"
Luo Shu explained to Qin Yu what he knew. She could feel that the breathing of several assassins nearby had become noticeably more tense.
"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. You continue with your work. I'm leaving first."
After coming out of the Dali Temple, she planned to go back to prepare the antidote, but was stopped on the way.
"Master Zhao?"
Seeing Lord Zhao's serious expression, Luo Shu felt a little guilty.
Because the experimental fields will not produce results in the short term after planting, Lord Zhao will also be responsible for the follow-up observations.
She took Aqing out for a trip.
And then, that's it, she forgot.
"Nuwa Luo, it's a relief that you still remember me."
"I'm sorry, Lord Zhao, it's my fault. Lord Zhao came to me today, but has the experimental field produced any results?"
"Ah, it's hard to put it into words."
"Don't be discouraged, Mr. Zhao. Innovation doesn't happen overnight. There will be setbacks and progress, and then it takes countless experiments to achieve results."
“I understand, but when I see all the seedlings I have worked so hard to cultivate fail, I always feel disappointed.
I am already at the age of 50, and I don’t know how many more years I can continue my research.”
"Lord Zhao has worked hard on farming all his life, so I think he must be in good health.
You just need to be at ease.
I believe that Lord Zhao will ensure that the people of Donglan can have enough food to eat during his lifetime."
Zhao Shian felt a sense of pride in his heart: "Okay, then I'll borrow your good words and let's go to the test field now."
"This is all thanks to you, my girl, for building the winter greenhouse. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to continue the experimental field in this cold winter."
Luo Shu was somewhat helpless as he was dragged along by Zhao Shian, who kept nagging him all the way.
However, Donglan has a good official who works so hard for farming. I think in a few years, Donglan's agriculture will surely make great progress.
Arriving at the experimental field greenhouse, Luo Shu carefully observed all the experimental seedlings according to Zhao Shian's notes.
The experimental seedlings were divided into two types: rice and corn.
The reasons for failure can be roughly divided into low hybrid survival rate, too high pest rate, poor soil, etc. There are also cases where hybridization is successful, but there is no visible increase in yield. In summary, all is a failure.
After observing for a while, Luo Shu also made dense notes in a small notebook, thinking of studying it slowly when he got back.
The books in the space basically allow her to master skills, but some modern technological achievements and scientific products are missing.
She can only conduct mixed research by combining her existing skills with all the modern knowledge reserves.
After Secretary Luo finished speaking, he stood up and realized that it had already darkened without him noticing.
"Master Zhao, I have summarized the reasons for the failure based on your notes and observations. Please take a look. We will each go back and study it, and then discuss it together when we have the results.
It’s getting late today, so I’ll go back first.”
"Okay." Zhao Shian took Luo Shu's notebook and looked at the dense handwriting, nodding with satisfaction: "I've kept you busy all afternoon today, come back with me tonight, I think my wife has already prepared dinner."
"Thank you for your kindness, Lord Zhao, but please forgive me for declining." Luo Shu paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Because my husband must be waiting for me to come back."
Zhao Shian laughed when he saw her sweet face: "Okay. Since your husband is waiting, I won't keep you here. You can go back first."
"Okay, Lord Zhao. I will go back first then."
When Luo Shu returned home, as expected, her A Qing was already waiting for her in the yard.
She ran over with a smile: "I knew it, my Ah Qing is waiting for me at home."
"My wife, you haven't eaten yet. The food in the kitchen is still hot. I'll have someone bring it up."
"Has Qing eaten yet?"
"I've eaten some."
"Then Ah Qing, would you please accompany my wife to eat a little more?"
He Qing nodded: "My wife has been busy until so late today, but has the investigation encountered any difficulties?"
“It’s not that difficult, I finished that thing in the morning.
On the way back, Mr. Zhao from the Ministry of Revenue dragged me to see the experimental fields, and I was so busy that I didn’t pay attention to the time. "
“Although A-Qing was waiting for me, I was very happy.
But if I come back late again, you should eat and rest first, don't wait for me, okay?"
"Okay, Qing'er knows~"
Luo Shu looked at his cute smile and shook his head lovingly.
"What was A-Qing busy with at home today?"
"Qing'er took another order from a young man, and then roughly determined the style of the clothes according to the young man's requirements, and even accompanied Xiaoxiao to learn to read..."
As He Qing spoke, Luo Shu listened quietly, responding from time to time, and occasionally telling him about his experiences today.
The two of them talked to each other and exchanged their thoughts and experiences.
It was not until Luo Shu noticed the even breathing in her arms that she turned off the lights and fell asleep holding her A Qing.
