The Elixir is for You, The Poison is for Me

#112 - Wedding Dress [Additional Update for Alliance Leader Snow Cake Bread]

In reality, any person of sound mind would know what choice to make at this moment without even looking at the options on the wall.

The dark green soup in front of him looked as poisonous as could be.

But the problem was that Lu Jing knew what the correct answer was, and those men who had previously been the porcelain doll girl's husbands must have also known the correct answer.

However, without exception, all of them who chose the correct answer were fed to the rats.

Not just Cui Ergou and that previous bailiff, judging by the porcelain doll girl's appearance, the number of people she had harmed was probably greater than that of the murder manual, otherwise she wouldn't have been targeted by the organization that the man in black belonged to.

In addition, the last sentence he saw on the wall was—do as she says, don't provoke her.

There was no specific warning about what would happen after the nuptial ceremony.

Lu Jing could actually guess what the words blocked by the porcelain doll girl would say.

But knowing was one thing, overcoming the dual psychological and physiological barriers to drink this stuff was not an easy task.

Especially since Lu Jing possessed the "Ji" character Sixteen, if he really wanted to run, there was a high probability that he could escape.

It was just that if he did, Yan Guangbo and the others, as well as the people in the village, would most likely suffer.

Like many people, Lu Jing had once asked himself a question.

Because his first reaction when encountering danger was often to protect himself first. Lu Jing always held the greatest respect for those who were willing to sacrifice themselves for righteousness, but he knew that he really couldn't do that.

But on the other hand, so many years of higher education and his own conscience made him unwilling to become a villain like He Qing and Xiang Feixiong, who regarded human life as worthless.

If he had to choose one, he still hoped to be an ordinary person who could save more people within his capabilities.

However, perhaps Lu Jing himself didn't expect that what ultimately made him determined to drink the disgusting thing in the bowl was not even this sense of responsibility.

But the porcelain doll girl's longing gaze.

Seeing Lu Jing staring at the green soup, hesitant and uncertain, this time she didn't use her previous face-changing magic, but just bit her lip and stared at Lu Jing blankly.

Then, two lines of blood-red tears streamed down her eyes.

Not the kind of tears that were forced out for acting, Lu Jing could read the pain in her heart from those eyes.

This pain was even more intense than the obsession in the previous murder manual!

It was as if someone was stabbing a knife into her chest inch by inch.

Her left hand had already squeezed the scissors she was holding out of shape, and finally the pain in her eyes turned into despair!

However, the next moment, Lu Jing suddenly lowered his head and took two big gulps of the green soup in the bowl.

Before it even entered his throat, Lu Jing was almost choked unconscious by the stench that wafted over.

The taste in his mouth was even more indescribable. Lu Jing estimated that the internet-famous hell-level dark dish, Surströmming, was probably no more than this.

But as the thick soup flowed into his stomach, it gradually turned into a warm current.

Then, the warm current continuously spread from his stomach, passing through the meridians in his body into his limbs, making every pore on his body stretch out involuntarily!

The scissors held by the porcelain doll girl fell to the ground with a clang.

The next moment, she suddenly burst into tears, threw herself into Lu Jing's arms, crying and laughing, "Husband, I can finally marry you! Do you know how long I've waited for this moment?!"

Lu Jing knew that the porcelain doll girl at this moment had mistaken him for another person.

Or more accurately, she had found so many husbands, asking everyone she met if they were willing to marry her, but in the end, she was actually only looking for one person.

—A man who, for some reason, would never marry her.

Understanding this, Lu Jing looked at the cheering porcelain doll girl in front of him, and suddenly felt that her happiness and excitement had become a little pitiful.

So the next moment, he hesitated for a moment, but still reached out and hugged the porcelain doll girl's porcelain-like cold body, letting her tears fall on his shoulder.

It was not until this time that Lu Jing saw the newly appeared line of words on the wall.

It said.

—Drink it, great opportunity.

The porcelain doll girl cried for a while before raising her head from Lu Jing's arms again. The next moment, she looked at Lu Jing's face and sighed faintly, "Unfortunately, you are not him after all."

Then she got up and gave Lu Jing a graceful salute, "Thank you, young hero, for fulfilling this great dream for this servant."

Lu Jing was surprised when he heard this, "You… you've woken up. Who exactly is your husband? Why don't you go directly to find him?"

The porcelain doll girl smiled miserably when she heard this, "Young hero is a good person, so it's better for young hero not to know this servant's story."

After saying that, she sighed again, "Affectionate people are always mistaken by affection, the moon of the past now shines on new people. Ziyu knows that her sins in this life are deep, and she can only slowly repay them in the next life."

After saying that, she drank the remaining dark green soup in the bowl in one gulp.

Then she swayed and fell to the ground.

And the rats that she had summoned here all woke up as if from a dream as she fell to the ground, and when they saw someone, they squeaked and fled in all directions.

Lu Jing squatted down and tried to put a finger under the porcelain doll girl's nose, but found that there was still a faint breath.

Then he heard a voice coming from the open space outside the house.

"The problem is not her, but the green wedding dress on her body."

Lu Jing looked up and saw a woman wearing green clothes and a bamboo hat walking in from outside. She reached out and first felt the porcelain doll girl's pulse, and then said to Lu Jing, "Are you not injured?"

"Uh, no, I don't know who you are…"

However, Lu Jing's words were interrupted by the woman in green, "These words can be said later. I have prescribed a lot of herbal medicines in the medical clinic in the city that specialize in treating rat bites. You can take them and distribute them to the officials of the Imperial City Division and the villagers in this village."

After saying that, she took out a large paper bag from her arms and handed it to Lu Jing, while she picked up the porcelain doll girl on the ground.

As a result, before she could get up, she was stopped by Lu Jing, "I will go and distribute the medicine immediately, but will you take the opportunity to leave while I am distributing the medicine?"

The woman in green raised her eyebrows, "Why would you have such an idea?"

"Because you have been avoiding my question from the beginning, refusing to tell me your identity and origin."

"I'm sorry, I'm not deliberately concealing it, it's just that some things are better left unknown to ordinary people."

"Even if I have just experienced such a thing?" Lu Jing asked back.

The woman in green seemed to be weighing something, frowning, and then unfolding it after a moment, and reopening her mouth.

"Forget it, you save people first, half an hour later, you walk east along the river, about three miles, there is a pavilion, I will wait for you there, remember, don't bring anyone else."

"It's a deal."
