Chapter 76.4 – Caught a Fruit Thief (4)
T/N: All I can say is, never underestimate DXL’s ability to make people work for her lmaoo.
“If the poison king wants to poison someone, and I don’t attentively keep watch, won’t big brother Yi be in danger?”
Du Xiao Li exposed Bai Ning Yuan’s ident.i.ty at once.
“Poison King?”
Han Ming Yi and Leng Er were both shocked by Du Xiao Li’s words. This person was the poison king?
“Hahaha, little girl, how do you know my ident.i.ty?” Having gotten his ident.i.ty seen through, Bai Ning Yuan didn’t
get angry, but instead amusingly looked to Du Xiao Li.
Du Xiao Li didn’t reply to him, instead coming to Han Ming Yi’s said, and said, “This poison king has poison all
over his body. Before you fight with him, you have to eat this first.”
With this said, Du Xiao Li had a medicine pill shoved into Han Ming Yi’s mouth and clapped her hands, “Alright
then! Big brother Yi, he ruined this much of my grapes, you definitely have to catch him. And wile you’re at it, you
can also ask whether that fire and ice poison on the third princess was done by him.”
“Che, just that medicine pill of yours can block my poison? Right now you want him to come catch me, careful he
might lose his life later!” Bai Ning Yuan didn’t take Du Xiao Li’s medicine seriously at all.
“Whether or not it’ll be able to block your poison, won’t we know with a try?” Du Xiao Li finished saying and then
moved to the side, crouching down to check on Leng Er’s condition. Shortly after, she also gave him a medicine
pill.
After learning that Bai Ning Yuan was the poison king, Han Ming Yi also produced the desire to catch him. He
although heard of the poison king’s reputation before, he wasn’t familiar with him at all. After hearing Du Xiao Li
say he can go on ahead now, he instantly attacked.
Du Xiao Li helped support Leng Er onto the horse carriage to sit down, while she herself also got on. When she
raised her head to see Han Ming Yi and Bai Ning Yuan fighting, she naturally also saw the surprised look on Bai
Ning Yuan’s face.
He never thought that someone would be able to cure his poison this quickly!
Bai Ning Yuan’s martial arts although was very high, Han Ming Yi’s martial arts was even stronger than his. If he
could use poison, then today he would still be able to successfully escape, but whatever Du Xiao Li fed him made
him seemingly completely immune to his poison. Very soon, he was subdued by Han Ming Yi.
Seeing the fight end, Du Xiao Li got down from the horse carriage and came to Bai Ning Yuan’s side, stabbing an
embroidery needle somewhere into his body.
“Alright big brother Yi, you can let go of him now.”
Bai Ning Yuan looked to Du Xiao Li, finally realizing now how impressive that medicine pill of hers was, “Who are
you, how come you’re able to block my poison?”
“If you want me to answer you, then you first need to answer a few of my questions.” Du Xiao Li said.
“Okay, but I also have conditions.” Bai Ning Yuan wasn’t at all worried about his current situation, as he looked to
Du Xiao Li and said.
“What qualifications do you still have right now to negotiate? Aren’t you afraid of angering us and have you killed?”
Du Xiao Li asked back with a laugh.
“What’s there to be scared of? Besides, you all might not even be able to kill me. Moreover, the thing you want to
ask me, I believe should be very important, right?” Bai Ning Yuan said as he laughed out loud.
“En, this head of yours is indeed not bad, no wonder you’re able to develop that many poisons.” Du Xiao Li rubbed
her chin as she looked to Bai Ning Yuan, contemplating, “State your conditions for us to hear first.”
“My condition is very simple. When I’m replying to your questions, I have to eat grapes.”
Eh—–
Du Xiao Li felt she was once again defeated by Bai Ning Yuan’s words. Previously he said Leng Er wasted his
grapes, and now he wanted to eat grapes while being interrogated. Is his line of thought for sure normal? Could it be
that while studying poison, his head broke?! Then this way, would the information they get out of him be reliable?
Du Xiao Li had Han Ming Yi pulled to the side and quietly told him her thoughts. When Han Ming Yi finished
listening, he felt unsure whether to laugh or cry. Only she would have this kind of thought, that in itself was also
somewhat strange, right?
He lightly tapped Du Xiao Li’s head and said, “Heard the poison king is eccentric, when he’s in a good mood, he can
agree to anything. When he’s in a bad mood, he can turn into Asura and ma.s.sacre everyone in the surrounding.
Presumably, for him to have this kind of request shouldn’t be too strange either.”
“Then let’s ask first to see if it’s true.” With that said, Du Xiao Li dragged Han Ming Yi back again and said to Bai
Ning Yuan, “We agree to your conditions. If you speak the truth, I’ll give you grapes to eat; if you lie, not only will I
not give you grapes, I might even have you turned into grape fertilizer!”
Han Ming Yi glanced to Leng Er, and Leng Er thus headed to the grape vineyard to pick two strings of grapes back.
“If you don’t wash, then you need to peel the skin!” Bai Ning Yuan said.
“You like eating grapes this much?” Du Xiao Li somewhat bewilderedly looked to Bai Ning Yuan.
“Of course, I specifically rushed over for this grape.” Bai Ning Yuan enviously watched Leng Er slowly peel the
grape skin and said, “In order to eat grapes, I rushed over all the way from Jiangnan. Fearing that I wouldn’t make it
in time, I didn’t even eat anything good along the way! When I finally found this estate with great difficulty and saw
this big of a grape vineyard, before I could even eat any, I was interrupted by you all.”
“You glutton!” Du Xiao Li couldn’t help saying this.
After Leng Er had the grape peeled and fed into Bai Ning Yuan’s mouth, Han Ming Yi asked, “Were you the one that
poisoned Eastern Li’s third princess?”
“What third princess? Don’t know her.” Bai Ning Yuan had the grape seed spat out as he replied, and then opened
his mouth to let Leng Er feed him another one.
“Fire and ice is the poison you just developed, right?” Han Ming Yi continued asking.
“That’s right, I’d just developed it a few months ago.”
“The third princess was precisely poisoned with your fire and ice poison. You say you weren’t the one that poisoned
her, do you think we’ll believe you?” Leng Er said.
“Your brain must be broken, right? If they’re poisoned with my poison, then I must be the one that poisoned them?”
Bai Ning Yuan disdainfully glanced at Leng Er, that clearly was looking down on Leng Er’s IQ.
“You—-”
“Who all have you given this poison to before?” Han Ming Yi signaled Leng Er to not be rash and directly asked his
question.
Bai Ning Yuan just stared at the grapes in Leng Er’s hand and didn’t speak. All the way until Leng Er had the grape
peeled and shoved into his mouth did he finally talk, “Ah, I seemed to have given it to a few people, but who
exactly, I need to eat a few more grapes to be able to remember.”
While Han Ming Yi was interrogating Bai Ning Yuan, Du Xiao Li went to see just exactly how many of her grape
vines were ruined this time, calculating to have Bai Ning Yuan compensate her later. After heading back, and seeing
how they were interrogating him, she couldn’t help but burst out laughing.
