CHAPTER 422: CHAPTER 421: DO YOU HAVE WATER

Beisitian moved next to Tian Zhi and applied a layer of medicine powder under his nose. Tian Zhi gently flared his nostrils to take a sniff, but didn’t smell anything.

"Colorless and odorless," Beisitian said, evidently hearing the subtle sound from Tian Zhi.

Tian Zhi looked a bit embarrassed.

Beisitian handed the medicine powder to Wei Zhongxun, telling him to apply it too.

Wei Zhongxun applied it without a word, then asked, "Where did you hide it?"

"In my pocket," Beisitian replied. She had sewn a small compartment inside her clothes where she stored some antidotes or offensive powders, used to save her life, so they weren’t confiscated.

Since it was her life-saving means, she naturally wouldn’t disclose it casually; she and Wei Zhongxun were not that familiar.

Beisitian rubbed a bit under her own nose and then opened her palm, showing the medicine powder just made with the Spiritual Talisman. Although there’s only a little, its power is significant.

"It needs to be dissolved in water," Beisitian looked at Wei Zhongxun.

Wei Zhongxun nodded blankly, "Yes, usually talisman powder needs to be dissolved in water."

"I don’t have any," Beisitian still looked at him.

Wei Zhongxun was puzzled, thinking, if you don’t have it, I don’t either, why do you keep looking at me!

Beisitian remained calm, "If you try, you might find some."

Wei Zhongxun: "..." What do you mean by that?

Beisitian continued to look calm, then her gaze traveled downwards and stopped at his waist. Wei Zhongxun immediately understood what she meant, and his face tightened.

She meant for him to produce water!

This woman... does she have to be so bold!

"Hurry up." Beisitian placed the talisman powder in Wei Zhongxun’s palm, "It needs to be cold!"

Wei Zhongxun’s face changed unpredictably, biting his teeth, he said word by word, "Even if I can, it would come out warm!"

"Cool it down." Beisitian remained calm.

Wei Zhongxun held his forehead, truly defeated by this woman.

Just then, Tian Zhi suddenly said, "Well... I can ask them for some water to drink."

Beisitian and Wei Zhongxun were taken aback, right, if they planned to use Tian Zhi to make medicine, now aside from restricting his freedom, they’d definitely serve him well until they’ve brewed a potent poison for him to take, so asking for water should be easy!

So... the two exchanged glances, each seeing the speechlessness in the other’s eyes. What were they arguing about just now?

They silently looked away, deciding to forget the whole thing.

Wei Zhongxun shouted outside, saying Tian Zhi wanted some water. The skinny man with a horse-face below spat, muttering, "What a problem, already asking for water twice in such a short time. See if I care when you can’t hold it and wet yourself!"

Annoyed, he got up and picked up a bottle of mineral water from the ground, then walked upstairs.

He tossed the mineral water through the small window, shouting, "Don’t give me so much trouble, or I’ll kill you!" he cursed as he walked away.

Wei Zhongxun took the mineral water, saw it was half a bottle, opened the cap, sniffed it, and said, "No problem."

Whether it was clean water or had something in it, he could smell it. This is what made Mystic Doctors more formidable than ordinary doctors.

Beisitian poured out part of the water and then dissolved the talisman powder into it, which quickly dissipated. She followed through with pouring out the talismanic water.

Soon, even in this small space, a faint fragrance like roses could be detected, very pleasant.

"Don’t inhale too much, it’s a hallucinogen!" Beisitian reminded.

Tian Zhi, who was about to take another sniff, quickly stopped breathing.

Beisitian estimated the time. Although this warehouse was small, the talisman powder was limited. After about a quarter of an hour, there was movement outside.

Laughter started coming from outside, followed by unknown grunting noises.

Beisitian looked out through the small window, barely able to see the three men starting to dance around, and she could hear them singing loudly.

"Are they high?" Wei Zhongxun was astonished. He had never seen a Xuan Talisman with such effects; it was like they were on drugs!

"Come over here~" Beisitian’s voice was soft as she spoke to the three outside.

Her voice wasn’t loud, but the three seemed to hear it clearly, looking at Beisitian simultaneously before laughing and heading upstairs.

The three staggered as if they had no bones, often falling while climbing the stairs, needing to hold the railing to ascend yet still striving to go up.

At the door, the three started banging and shouting ’little darling’, as if treating this place like a paradise!

"Open the door," Beisitian’s voice remained gentle.

The fat man shakily took the keys from his belt, trembling but with a face full of yearning.

After much effort, the fat man finally opened the door, despite it being just a thin sheet of iron requiring two hands to push open.

As the iron door opened, a faint light shone into the dark room. The three looked around, then leered and started toward Wei Zhongxun.

Wei Zhongxun was dumbfounded as he retreated, "What are you doing! Stay away from me! Beisitian, what did you do!"

Leaning against the wall, Beisitian didn’t respond to Wei Zhongxun, instead telling the three, "Unlock Tian Zhi’s chains."

The fat man paused at her words, scanning the room until he spotted Tian Zhi in the corner. Like discovering a treasure, he drooled and rushed over.

Tian Zhi retreated in terror, shouting, ’Cousin, help!’

Beisitian calmly said, "Their strength is less than an eight-year-old’s, no need to fear."

At her words, Wei Zhongxun immediately pushed the long, horse-faced man about to touch him, easily toppling him, and let out a sigh of relief.

Wei Zhongxun patted his chest, "Luckily, luckily!" then glared at Beisitian, "Why are they all coming for me!" This had to be Beisitian’s doing.

Beisitian shrugged, "Who knows, maybe they find you more appetizing."

Wei Zhongxun almost threw up; this woman was truly obnoxious!

Still, it was too dim inside, and the plump man couldn’t open the chains in his daze. Seeing enough, Wei Zhongxun went up, grabbed the key from the man, and opened Tian Zhi’s chains.

The fat man turned, staring at Wei Zhongxun, then grinned, drooling as he spread his arms to hug him...

With a look of disdain, Wei Zhongxun kicked the fat man aside and unlocked Tian Zhi’s chains.

Once free, Tian Zhi quickly distanced himself from the three, sharing Wei Zhongxun’s sentiment of utter disgust!
