Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 868 - 228: Chen 94? Can he do it?

Xiao Hu looked at Chen Jie and asked, "Jiu Si, how exactly was Yelu poisoned?"

Chen Jie smiled and said, "This, well, it’s actually quite simple."

Then Chen Jie continued, "The Dragon Pattern River Puffer Fish is not poisonous, the antidote is not poisonous, so where is the poison?"

"The poison is actually within Yelu himself."

"Within Yelu himself?"

Chen Xiaohu frowned with a puzzled look and said, "Jiu Si, I don’t understand."

Chen Jie chuckled and pulled out a book from his pocket, handing it to Xiao Hu.

"Take a look."

Xiao Hu took the book imdiately upon hearing Chen Jie. Surprisingly, it was the secret manual of the Five Poison Sect, specifically the Gu Chapter.

Xiao Hu frowned and said, "This book, I don’t think I’ve ever seen it before!"

Chen Jie replied, "It’s one of the core texts of the Five Poison Sect, called the Gu Poison Chapter."

"Ah, Jiu Si, where did you get this Five Poison Sect secret manual? It seems that the one I gave you didn’t have this Gu Poison Chapter in it."

Chen Jie smiled silently upon hearing this. How he got it, naturally, was through the heritage of Chang Chun Valley, which is renowned for its dical knowledge, where dicine and poison have always been intertwined.

This Gu Poison Chapter is one of the treasures of Chang Chun Valley.

It also discusses so of the inheritance issues related to the Five Poison Sect.

The Five Poison Sect is located in Xiangxi, a region with a mix of minority ethnic groups, including the Tujia, Miao, Hui, Dong, and others.

With various ethnic groups living together, they ford the mysterious and unpredictable Xiangxi.

The Xiangxi Five Poison Sect was established by these ethnic groups, incorporating many unique thods from different ethnic groups into the sect.

Moreover, the Five Sects beca the core, united to be known as the Five Poison Sect.

These include the Miao’s Gu poison, the corpse poison of corpse chasers, and so on...

Chang Chun Valley’s Valley Master, Chang Chunzi, once visited Xiangxi and had clashes with the Five Poison Sect, thereby obtaining so of their cultivation techniques, such as the Miao’s half a scroll of the Gu Poison Chapter.

Initially, Chen Jie planned to place poison in the antidote.

Then, using the deadly poison of the puffer fish, he would tempt Yelu to swallow the poisoned antidote, or use the Mixed Poison thod, where the antidote was not poisonous, the puffer fish was not poisonous, but combined they beca deadly.

However, after much thought, there were bound to be flaws.

Yelu was very good at finding flaws, so Chen Jie couldn’t leave him any handle.

To poison him, he had to leave Yelu with no chance to resist.

Thus, after searching through the heritage of Chang Chun Valley, Chen Jie found this Gu Poison Chapter.

Within the Gu Poison Chapter, there was a section called the Human Chapter, which recorded a process of using a person as a petri dish to cultivate a highly toxic Blood Gu.

It ntioned that the best petri dish for cultivating such Blood Gu was the fishern by the river, especially those who often ate raw fish.

These fishern appeared robust, but their bodies harbored a large number of water worms, usually dormant.

If driven by the Blood Gu, these water worms would imdiately beco the nourishnt for the Blood Gu, allowing it to grow rapidly in a short ti. The Blood Gu would then bite through the internal organs of the host, who would lose all value.

Upon reading this section, Chen Jie imdiately thought of Yelu. Although he was not a fisherman, he almost ate raw fish daily, which even ordinary fishern didn’t do every day.

The prolonged consumption of raw fish led to a large number of parasites in his body, likely the water worms recorded in the Gu Poison Chapter.

Thus, Yelu beca a natural vessel for cultivating the Blood Gu. Once he swallowed the Blood Gu, he would inevitably be killed by it to complete the assassination.

So Chen Jie hid the Blood Gu in the antidote.

The Blood Gu itself was not poisonous; only after cultivation would it beco toxic, or rather, it would exhibit a biological instinct, beginning to tear at the host’s internal organs.

As for Wu the Swift Blade and his apprentice, Chen Jie had already given them dicine to prevent the growth of Blood Gu. Additionally, although they were Fish Sashimi Masters, they rarely ate fish sashimi.

The reason was simple: it was a tradition in their trade.

All fish sashimi apprentices, before starting their apprenticeship, had to undergo a lesson of eating sashimi every day for a full month, leading to a natural aversion to sashimi.

This is commonly referred to as getting "sick of it" by the public.

As a result, they no longer desired sashimi, preventing any sneaky consumption of fish sashimi while preparing it for their hosts.

Because of this, their bodies were not conducive to Blood Gu growth, coupled with the antidote given by Chen Jie, the Blood Gu had no adverse effects on them.

At the beginning, when Ahetai made the slaves drink the antidote, nothing happened, simply because the slaves hardly ever saw at, much less fish sashimi for a whole year. They usually consud sorghum rice mixed with chaff, which wouldn’t harbor parasites to provide an environnt for Blood Gu growth.

Therefore, those slaves were fine after drinking the antidote.

Chen Jie explained the whole process to Xiao Hu, who exclaid, "Jiu Si, you’re too brilliant. Who could defend against such poisoning thods?"

Chen Jie rely smiled and said, "Just as well. Now that Yelu is dead, the situation in Mianshui has improved considerably. It’s the perfect opportunity to consolidate all the smaller guilds in Mianshui under our Fishing Guild, making Mianshui ours alone."

"Additionally, County Magistrate Tang Wannian has also surrendered to us. Thus, we hold an advantage in official matters. With the solid foundation I’ve laid, as long as Zhou Chu and the others don’t ss it up, in a month or two, we’ll fortify the entire Mianshui as impenetrable as an iron wall, so that even if the court sends a Darugachi, we could successfully counter them."
