Chapter 491: Chapter 491
Inside the s.p.a.ce, Chen Meng’er was working on the antidote without rest.
Outside the s.p.a.ce, outside the pharmacy, Elder Liu had been pacing back and forth relentlessly. If it weren’t for Skinny pulling him along, Fatty would have had the urge to smash the door and enter. Even Yuwen Jing had been sleeping in the Green Gang’s residence for the past two days.
During these two days, the busiest and most crowded place in the Green Gang residence had become the pharmacy.
“Sir, I think we should go and knock on the door. It’s already the third day, and the Little Miss hasn’t eaten anything for three days. I can’t hear anything from inside the pharmacy. I’m worried,” Fatty said as he got rid of Skinny’s restraints. He ran to Elder Liu.
“d.a.m.n Fatty, do you think you’re the only one who’s worried about the Little Miss? Sir is worried about the Little Miss too. If we weren’t afraid of disturbing Little Miss, we would have knocked on the door a long time ago. However, speaking of which, Little Miss hasn’t eaten for three days. With her small body, how can she bear it?” Skinny couldn’t help but say, he was worried.
!!
Elder Liu ignored the Fatty and Skinny. He looked at the tightly shut door of the pharmacy with a dark face. No one knew what he was thinking.
Yuwen Jing also had a stern face. He stood at the entrance of the pharmacy like a guard. It was rare that Elder Liu, who disliked Yuwen Jing, did not say anything to chase him away.
“Phew.” Finally, as the last herb was put into the pot, Chen Meng’er let out a sigh of relief. She could finally reach out and wipe the sweat from her forehead. “It’s finally done. I just need to solidify it into a pill.”
The antidote given by her mutated brain was made into a pill.
Chen Meng’er did not know where this mutated brain had come from. Although her mutated brain was heaven-defying, after using it for so many years, Chen Meng’er came to a conclusion, her mutated brain was Chinese. For example, when it came to refining medicine, it would not be made into a liquid. Instead, it would be directly refined into a pill or medicinal powder.
Chen Meng’er carefully put the refined pills into a small porcelain bottle. “Okay, it’s done.”
Chen Meng’er took the small porcelain bottle containing the pills and flashed out of the s.p.a.ce.
after leaving the s.p.a.ce, she relaxed. Only then did Chen Meng’er feel that her stomach was rumbling with hunger. “Let’s go eat first. After we finish eating, we’ll test the effects of those pills.”
As Chen Meng’er spoke, she held the small porcelain bottle containing the pills and pushed open the door of the pharmacy.
When Chen Meng’er pushed open the door of the pharmacy and saw the people standing outside, she was shocked. “Eh, why is everyone here?”
“Ah, Little Miss, you’re finally out.” Outside the door, no one answered Chen Meng’er’s question. When everyone saw Chen Meng’er come out, their hearts were filled with worry, and one by one, they surrounded her.
Chen Meng’er had successfully developed the antidote for the reagent. Elder Liu heaved a heavy sigh of relief. He could be considered to have let go of a worry that had been weighing down on his heart for decades. However, Elder Liu would sometimes sigh with emotion towards Chen Meng’er, if he had the ability at that time, he wouldn’t have to watch his good brother die.
However, as he grew older, Elder Liu had become more open-minded. Life and death depended on fate.
Elder Liu had asked everyone who knew about Chen Meng’er developing the antidote to keep it a secret. If someone knew about it, Chen Meng’er would be in danger.
Elder Liu had even hidden this matter from Elder Deng.
Elder Deng also seemed to hide the issue of the reagents that Chen Meng’er brought back from j.a.pan from Elder Liu. After Elder Liu sent the reagents over, Elder Deng had not made a single move. However, Elder Liu, who already had the antidote, did not dwell on this matter. He also did not talk to Elder Deng about the antidote.
Instead, he talked about the name list. Elder Liu and Chen Meng’er went to look for Elder Deng and sent the little black book that they found for Dr. Li to Elder Deng.
“In my opinion, it’s useless to send this book to Elder Deng. We might as well keep it for ourselves.” When they arrived at Zhongnanhai, Chen Meng’er and Elder Liu got out of the car. When they walked inside, Elder Liu was still muttering to Chen Meng’er.
After Elder Liu looked at the name list in the little black book, he felt that there wasn’t much use in giving it to Elder Deng. Elder Deng couldn’t touch the important people in the book, and he couldn’t touch them either. There wasn’t much use in dealing with the small fry either. Therefore, Elder Liu felt that there was no need to do anything unnecessary.
“Grandpa, it’s Elder Deng’s business how to deal with it. It’s better to give this thing to him. If we keep this thing by our side, it might bring us trouble one day.” Chen Meng’er was more cautious than Elder Liu. On this matter alone, she was more considerate than her grandfather.
“Alright, alright. I’ll listen to you. You brat, you’re like a little housekeeper,” Elder Liu said helplessly.
Chen Meng’er and Elder Liu were mumbling as they walked in when someone stopped in front of them. “Elder Liu?”
When Elder Liu heard someone call out to him, he raised his head and saw an old, familiar face. “Oh, it’s Elder Qu. Why are you free today to look for Elder Deng?”
“Ah, I have a small matter to discuss with Elder Deng. I made an appointment with him,” Elder Qu said with a stiff expression.
When Chen Meng’er heard the surname “Qu,” she subconsciously raised her head and looked at Elder Qu. When Chen Meng’er raised her head and looked at Elder Qu, Elder Qu’s gaze happened to fall on Chen Meng’er as well. “Elder Liu, this is your precious granddaughter, right?” Just as Elder Qu finished speaking, he happened to see Chen Meng’er’s face clearly.
“What?” The shock in Elder Qu’s eyes could not be concealed no matter how hard he tried. He even lost his composure and pointed at Chen Meng’er. He was a little fl.u.s.tered and wanted to find someone to verify something.
“Elder Qu, what’s wrong with you?” Elder Liu and Elder Qu knew each other. Although they were not as close as Marquis Yuwen and the others, they still had some friendship. Elder Qu was a good person.
“This child, she looks too much like my little daughter.” Elder Qu finally found his voice.
“Oh? There’s such a coincidence? To look like my precious granddaughter is really rare. That’s not right, Elder Qu. If I remember correctly, you don’t have a daughter?” Elder Liu felt that his memory was good and clearly remembered that Elder Qu only had five sons and no daughters.
“Sigh, my poor little daughter was in an accident when she was about ten years old. She’s gone.” When Elder Qu mentioned this matter, his face was full of pain. “Elder Liu, forgive my rashness. Can I ask where her parents are? You also know that more than ten years ago, my granddaughter who was still in her infancy was taken away, so I want to ask.”
“This.” Elder Liu had never expected to encounter such a thing when he came to Elder Deng’s place. Elder Liu did not know how to answer Elder Qu for a moment. He looked at Chen Meng’er as if he was asking for help.
