"You idiot!"

Lin Mengya rolled her eyes and Qinghu was deeply hurt by her.

He pretended to be pathetic once again and gently took the leaves from Lin Mengya.

"I can eat it myself. I don’t want to soil your hands."

Different from the bitter flowers, these leaves were sweet and delicious.

Lin Mengya stood aside and watched him eat all the leaves. After eating the last leaf, Qinghu suddenly screamed and his body was curled up in a ball.

"What.... are these leaves... used for?"

Qinghu felt painful and itchy at the same time and he nearly wanted to kill himself.

But his hands and feet were bound by long chains. He suffered great pains and gradually became limp and flaccid.

"The leaves are used to heal you. Oh, I forgot to tell you that there is no pain if you eat them separately. But if you eat the flowers and leaves together, you will be painful and it can work better."

This guy dared scheme against her in secret and this was a little punishment.

But Lin Mengya was not just punishing him by asking him to eat the leaves.

Qinghu gradually felt less painful and itchy and started to regain his strength.

The corner of her eyes and mouth started to become warm. Qinghu reached out and wanted to touch his face, but Lin Mengya stopped him.

"Don’t touch it. This is the poison in your body."

Qinghu suddenly noticed a fragrant smell. Lin Mengya was gently wiping the corner of his eyes with a clean and fragrant handkerchief.

"Alright. I’ll ask someone to bath you and you’ll be fine."

Lin Mengya didn’t have any other ideas. She simply wiped his eyes and then stood up.

"The agreement between you and me is canceled. You can choose to leave after you recover and I will not stop you."

Lin Mengya asked a guard to enter the cell and unbolt the shackles on his hands and feet.

historical

"Girl, I’m afraid of being bored. I’d love to stay with you and this is more interesting."

Qinghu stood behind Lin Mengya and said.

Lin Mengya smiled elegantly and left the separate cell after a short pause.

Qinghu was her minion from today.

But if he dared betray her once again, she would definitely make his life a living hell.

The separate cell was located toward the back of the dungeon. Lin Mengya slowly came out of the cell and there was no servant following behind her.

She was beautiful and charming but she looked cold and unapproachable, which made her more mysterious.

She attracted much attention even in the cell.

Not all prisoners in the cell were dying. Some prisoners who still had some strength whistled at her. But they dared not swear in front of her.

They were clearly no ordinary prisoners.

The dungeon was full of twists and turns and had many routes.

Besides, the candlelight was dim. Lin Mengya kept walking but she suddenly felt that something was wrong. She obviously went in the wrong direction.

She wandered aimlessly around the dungeon. To her surprise, she suddenly noticed the faint herbal aroma in this dark dungeon.

Lin Mengya followed the smell and came to an unlocked cell.

Looking at the hard stone door, Lin Mengya curiously reached out and wanted to push it open.

Who was in this cell?

"Who are you? You’re such an impolite girl. You should first knock at the door before entering my room."

Lin Mengya was scared by this sudden old voice.

Lin Mengya immediately withdrew her hand and looked around this place. But the voice came from inside the cell.

"Please forgive me for being impolite. I just came here by accident and didn’t mean to offend you."

It seemed that he didn’t like to be disturbed. So Lin Mengya was about to turn and leave this place.

But the old voice appeared once again before she even took one step.

"Hey! You’re an interesting girl! Other people try every means to enter my room but you directly leave this place without any hesitation. Are you playing hard-to-get with me?"

Lin Mengya disliked the disdain in his voice.

"I arrived here by accident. I’m curious because I smell the fragrance of herbs. If you don’t like to be disturbed, I can immediately leave you alone. We have never seen each other before, why do I play hard-to-get?"

Lin Mengya said with dignity and her inherent pride.

This man was too arrogant. This was just a cell instead of the earthly paradise. She didn’t even bother to walk into this dark cell.

"Haha, you’re a sharp and clever girl and I like you. If you’re curious, please come in and have a look."

This man was weird.

From time immemorial there has been the belief that the competent and talented people must be weird or have a strange habit.

Lin Mengya also changed her mind. She should directly enter his cell since he asked her to come in.

Lin Mengya thought that it might be another dark cell. She pushed the stone door open and saw a clean and tidy bedroom.

There was a simple bed and a stone table cluttered with bottles and cans.

It seemed that there were other rooms inside but it was dark and Lin Mengya couldn’t see this place clearly.

But this room was fully furnished and had all kinds of articles for daily use, including the tables, chairs, and benches. It seemed that someone was living here.

The scent of herbs became heavier in this room. Lin Mengya took a deep breath and the names of many different drugs flooded in. She became dizzy and nearly fainted.

All these herbs were poisonous! What was this old man doing?

"Girl, eat it."

Lin Mengya heard a faint noise and caught a small jade bottle with a narrow neck. She pulled the brown cork and took out a longan-size pill.

It was round and looked delicate.

But she put the pill into the bottle once again and took a deep breath of the scent of herbs in the room.

"The poisons in this room are neutralized with each other. So the air is non-toxic. But it’s stinky. After taking your pills, we’ll not smell it and become relieved."

After hearing Lin Mengya’s words, the man standing in the dark corner of the room suddenly exclaimed.

It seemed that he didn’t expect that the secret of this pill could be discovered by this little girl.

Soon, a middle-aged man walked out from the dark place.

He was about fifty years old. He was wearing a purple gown. The clothes were crumpled and untidy. There were many stains on the clothes and it seemed that he had never washed it.

He was slender and tall. His hair was untidy and ruffled like a bird’s nest. His eye sockets were deep, his eyes were red, and his face was grey. His mouth was slightly open, and he stared at Lin Mengya in astonishment.

Lin Mengya stared at him with distrust. This man looked like a beggar!

Such an untidy and scruffy man must be a fool or a workaholic.

"How do you know this? There’re at least a thousand poisonous plants and insects in my room. I don’t think you can identify all of them."

This man waved his arms and it seemed that he didn’t believe in Lin Mengya.

Lin Mengya secretly took a step back and looked around to find a weapon to protect herself.

He might be an old madman.

One of her friends who majored in psychology once told her that some demented person was violent and would behave strangely.

She’d better be careful.

"I can’t identify all of them. I only know a little about drugs."

Lin Mengya said calmly while a disappointed look crossed the old madman’s face.

He turned and quickly washed his face in the basin.

He casually wiped his face with a coarse cloth and slumped down in the wooden armchair in front of Lin Mengya.

"It seems that you know something about the drugs."

At this moment, Lin Mengya finally saw his face clearly. His hair was still scruffy and untidy but Lin Mengya could see his handsome face now.

Compared with the handsome men in Prince Yu’s Mansion, this middle-aged man standing in front of her looked maturer and less distant.

In modern times, many young girls would definitely be attracted to this handsome man.

The mature men were more popular among girls in recent years.

"I... I only know a little about drugs. I’m sensitive to poisons."

In fact, she was very sensitive to poisons and sometimes she was confused about this ability.

The radar was of great help to her and helped her to keep out of danger most of the time. But after all, she was a human instead of the machine.

The radar was too sensitive. Sometimes, there were traces of poison around her and it wouldn’t cause any harm to her. But the names of the poisons would also appear in her mind, which made her crazy.

After all, not everyone wanted to recite the drug names in their dreams.

"Oh? The world has changed and people are not afraid of poisons."

Lin Mengya noticed an obvious trace of disdain in his tone.

Lin Mengya was sensitive and immediately noticed his disdain. But she didn’t speak out.

The most foolish person would already know the career of this handsome and mature man.

He must be a doctor who specialized in poisons. Besides, he must have been hurt by someone.

After thinking for a while, Lin Mengya said carefully,

"The effects of drugs and poisons are not determined by themselves, instead, their effects and functions are determined by the one who uses them. The same is true for martial arts. The good person will use it to save others while the bad guys will use it to kill others."

It was obvious that he had the same idea as Lin Mengya. He looked at her in appreciation.

Most of the weird people were frank and sincere.

Lin Mengya was sure that he must be a free man who followed his heart. And his sense of right and wrong must be different from that of the ordinary people.

"Yes, you’re right. But how do you tell a good person from bad guys?"

Lin Mengya was stumped by this philosophical question.

Good person? Bad guys?

Lin Mengya shook her head and slowly said,

"There are no purely good person or purely bad guys in the world. People may make different choices at different times."

"Good point! You’re free and refreshingly informal. I like this kind of person. The damned rules are just cliches of the ordinary people. We need to follow our heart and live as we like. Girl, do you want to be my apprentice?"

Lin Mengya was shocked and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

But she was just a passerby!
