Chapter 129 Don’t make a big mistake (19)
The two reached a preliminary cooperation agreement. Mo Ci did not stay long, but before leaving, he pointed to the things on the table.
"If you want to avoid being caught, it's better to deal with these things as soon as possible."
As he spoke, Mo Ci walked out of the study in a swagger, which made the servants who saw this scene a little dazed. Why didn't they remember Mo Ci entering?
Or did they not notice when Mo Ci went in?
In short, no matter how they thought about it, they couldn't imagine how Mo Ci entered the study without disturbing anyone.
After Mo Ci left, Pang Sheng quickly destroyed all those things. He agreed with Mo Ci's words that keeping these things would only give others a handle, so it would be better to burn them cleanly.
As for other people's curiosity about how Mo Ci got into his study, Pang Sheng was in no mood to explain. Since Mo Ci chose to let others know, it was Mo Ci's turn to worry about how to fool these people.
After all, the reason he agreed to Mo Ci was not only because he wanted to pull Mo Ci to his side, but also because of the antidote Mo Ci gave him.
However, Pang Sheng did not completely believe in Mo Ci's antidote. He did not know medicine, but he knew that some medicines only suppressed toxins rather than completely cured them.
Just like before, he had to take the antidote he got from the Papilio Valley every two months.
Therefore, when he was unsure whether the antidote could completely remove the poison or just temporarily suppress it, he would not stand on Mo Ci's side so clearly, but planned to have his cake and eat it too.
Mo Ci had also considered Pang Sheng's idea, but Pang Sheng was right in one thing: he was right not to fully trust Mo Ci.
Of course, the medicine that Mo Ci gave him was indeed an antidote, and it was the kind that could cure the disease completely.
It's just that there is another kind of poison on top of the antidote.
Mo Ci would not do a business that would lose money. Besides, Pang Sheng had already made plans for him, so it was only natural for him to reciprocate.
Both sides have their own calculations and reservations, and it all depends on who has the last laugh.
On the second day, the servant who came back with the antidote met Pang Sheng and handed the antidote to Pang Sheng, saying.
"Master Pang, the Valley Master is kind and compassionate, but you must not slack off. Otherwise, you won't need this medicine anymore."
This was a naked threat. When Pang Sheng heard this, a hint of hostility appeared in his eyes, but he responded calmly.
"Of course. Since you left, I have sent people to search for you in the surrounding towns. I will definitely not disappoint the Valley Master."
"So, it's best."
After saying that, the man put the medicine in his hand into Pang Sheng's hand thoroughly. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard Pang Sheng say something again.
"Xing Yuan, have you ever soaked in the medicinal liquids I used to make?"
Xing Yuan paused, then turned his head to look at Pang Sheng. Unable to see anything from Pang Sheng's face, he just replied.
"The medicinal liquid was a gift from the Valley Master, so I've naturally tried it myself. Why are you asking?"
Pang Shengwei lowered his head and the corner of his mouth twitched.
"Nothing, just a little curious. I don't know how long the Valley Master will let me work outside. I'm really tired of this kind of life."
When Xing Yuan heard this, he sneered.
"Tired? How can you say you're tired when you're working for the Valley Master?! Pang Sheng, the Valley Master values you, so remember not to be arrogant or indulge yourself."
After saying that, Xing Yuan left without stopping.
After a long while, Pang Sheng uttered a cold sneer.
Respect? Ha, only a stubborn fool like Xing Yuan would think this is respect.
But it is also true that Xing Yuan is different from him. Xing Yuan was picked up by Fengdie Valley when he was young, and his heart is completely towards Fengdie Valley. Talking to him is like playing the lute to a cow.
Even if Xing Yuan knew the efficacy of the medicine, he would probably offer it to him willingly.
Thinking of this, Pang Sheng stroked the scabbed wound on his body. It was such a strange color, and he didn't know if anyone else had noticed it.
When he was assassinated in the street, it was actually within Pang Sheng's expectations. He even had blood bags prepared at the injured location.
In addition, he was accompanied by servants, so he didn't reveal his true identity. As for why he was so weak, he looked like he was really injured.
That was because the time to take the antidote was getting closer, so he simply made a fake one look real, and really fooled a lot of people.
Thinking of this, Pang Sheng put away his hand and simply went to Mo Ci's yard, just like he did a few days ago.
When he arrived at Mo Ci's place, Mo Ci was preparing medicinal herbs. Pang Sheng's arrival did not affect him. As for the servants, they were also guarding not far away.
This distance allowed them to see the two people's movements but not hear what they said.
Pang Sheng watched Mo Ci's actions and said, "I've looked you up, Su Chengyun of the Su family, but no one knew you were also good at pharmacology."
Mo Ci replied without even raising his head.
"The servants of your Pang family are all from the Fengdie Valley. Isn't it also known that you are controlled by the Fengdie Valley?"
Pang Sheng had originally picked up the teacup but hadn't even put it to his lips when he put it down because of these words.
"Well, everyone has secrets, so we're even this time. But I'm curious, what's the grudge between you and Fengdie Valley?"
Mo Ci: “It will be available soon.”
Pang Sheng: ...
Is this a reason? Just to give him a quick thumbs-up?
Pang Sheng looked at Mo Ci with a look that was like, "Are you kidding me?" Mo Ci happened to look up and put the prepared herbs aside when he met his gaze. Mo Ci paused and continued speaking.
"Just consider it a good deed I did every day."
Pang Sheng: ... ...you are really just trying to fool me!
Pang Sheng was thinking in his heart, but his face showed no expression. He just looked at Mo Ci and continued speaking after a while.
"What is your relationship with Yu Yaoxing?"
Mo Ci: "Yu Yaoxing? We met by chance, so do a good deed every day."
In fact, Yu Yaoxing was in constant trouble and he was implicated in it. However, that is not the case.
Another good deed every day. Pang Sheng controlled himself and barely avoided rolling his eyes while turning the conversation back to the main topic.
"There's a grudge between Yu Yaoxing and Fengdie Valley, but I'm not aware of it. If you're interested, you'd better stay away from him."
In fact, Pang Sheng didn't even need to tell him that since Mo Ci was implicated by Yu Yaoxing again last time, he had made up his mind to hide when he saw Yu Yaoxing.
However, Mo Ci was a little surprised that Pang Sheng would say these words to him. He glanced at Pang Sheng and saw that he was still the same person, but he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
Her face was still pale, but her lips had become a little brighter, and she seemed much more pleasing to the eye than before.
Mo Ci retracted his gaze and responded, "Yeah, I understand."
"I've seen before that your fat is actually caused by the drugs. Now that the poison is gone, you should be able to lose weight soon. But if you really lose weight, will the people in Fengdie Valley be suspicious?"
Mo Ci's words made Pang Sheng give up drinking tea again and think about it carefully.
Pang Sheng, whom Su Chengyun rescued at the time, was more strong than fat.
Now I'm really fat.
Pang Sheng had seen a doctor about this, and he had a vague feeling that it was related to the antidotes, but he couldn't live without the antidotes, so he could only let it go.
As for the present, after hearing what Mo Ci said, he seemed to be able to lose weight. He was afraid that people would find out that his poison had been cured, which would be bad if they alerted the enemy.
He just didn't want to continue to gain weight. After all, being too fat was not a good thing for him.
After thinking about it, Pang Sheng looked at Mo Ci again and said.
"I heard there's a technique in the martial arts world that can disguise one's appearance and shrink one's bones. I wonder if this technique can transform a thin person into a fat one?"
