As the saying goes, “long-term illness makes the patient a good doctor.” This was surely applicable to Xie Lianzhen.
Anyone who was in contact with medicines for long term would be very sure about how effective a type medicine was. Moreover, Xie Lianzhen was trained before. Because he hated to be touched everywhere and could not train normally like his other brothers, he used to learn the study of medical science during his free time.
He never thought that one day, his activity during leisure time would be used to save his life.
From his appearance to his character, only “weird” could be used to describe the Drug Lord. Anything that wasn’t beneficial to his experiment was nothing more than a grain of sand in his eyes. But he was naive too; all he thought about was his experiments, and nothing else in the world mattered.
When Xie Lianzhen was caught to be a drug man, the Drug Lord was extremely happy with him because Xie Lianzhen could name all the drugs and their effects. As if striking the lottery, the Drug Lord immediately took him in as a friend instead of a drug man.
Actually, this fat lunatic was lonely. Here, no matter the guards or his servants, they were all just his tools. To him, they weren’t his companions. Catching someone like Xie Lianzhen, who he could discuss his findings with, put him on cloud nine.
And because of that, Xie Lianzhen was no longer a lab rat.
But that wasn’t the main point. No matter what, Xie Lianzhen had to leave.
Xie Lianzhen clicked his tongue, fingers drumming on the chair’s armrest. Even if he did not need the wheelchair anymore, it was a habit, and habits die hard.
The Drug Lord wasn’t someone very powerful either. Even though he was in the Spirit Realm, his basics and ability were weaker than normal Spirit Realm martial artists. However, the Drug Lord was able to perform many weird tricks. For example, the water dragon tornado. Xie Lianzhen tricked the Drug Lord into performing that technique for him to see. He still didn’t understand even the gist of it, but Xie Lianzhen was sure that the Drug Lord had a treasure that allowed him to perform that technique.
In addition, there seemed to be a barrier around here. Even if there weren’t any physical items to limit his cultivation, Xie Lianzhen had no choice but to obey the Drug Lord. He couldn’t see what was constraining him, but the Drug Lord had plenty of tricks.
I’ll have to find out the source of his power and breakthrough it.
This would require the other drug men’s help. The Drug Lord kept a close eye on him, so it would be an almost impossible mission if he were to do it as a lone wolf.
Xie Lianzhen sighed and sat up straight, continuing to read through the book.
The Drug Lord’s background was funny too. He had very advanced methods of making medicine, but he barely knew anything about common herbs or materials that could be found everywhere. He didn’t seem very talented either. It seemed that he had some kind of evil inheritance or someone passed down some special methods.
“Sir, Drug Lord instructed me to send this over.” The guard’s voice broke his train of thoughts.
“Just place it here.” Xie Lianzhen smiled thinly and pointed at the table he was sitting at.
“Understood.”
After the guard left, Xie Lianzhen emptied the basket and bit his lips.
The Drug Lord said that the newcomer managed to endure the experiment twice, so her ability should be good. If I can get her on my side, she’ll be a good helper. Firstly, she just came, so her body should still be in good condition. Secondly, I tried the experiment first-hand previously, so if she could withstand it, she must have a good physical state and high tolerance level, as that pain is not something just anyone can tolerate.
The second time must’ve caused her to be very stressed. Let’s think of an idea to unleash her potential.
Number Five’s appearance brought happiness to the other drug men. Her appearance made Drug Lord forget about their existence. She had been called for the first two experiments, and now, it was her again.
Looking at her being brought away, the uncle was both happy and worried. “It’s so frequent! Will she be okay?”
To the rest of them, they only went for it once per month. Sometimes the Drug Lord might change his schedule, but having one go for consecutive experiments was something that had never happened before.
“She’s fine,” the old woman answered.
“How do you know, Old Witch?”
“I just know it.” The old woman sulked. She would never admit that she intentionally stood by the iron gate to take a look at Lu Mingshu and saw how fine she looked and what condition she was in. This made her drool in envy. The drug testing for the past thirty years had damaged her body permanently. She was only still alive now because of her will to get out.
Seeing Lu Mingshu walk past, the old woman couldn’t help but smile. Two times, yet she still looks perfectly fine. I did the right thing by putting a bet on her.
The Drug Lord was the happiest to see Lu Mingshu.
He was currently staring at her, flabbergasted.
He took a minute to register what he saw before pouncing on Lu Mingshu. He grabbed her hand and checked her pulse. “No erosion? Normal heartbeat, better physical qualities, healthy too…. It’s so useful? Hahaha, I finally solved it! I’m such a genius!” The Drug Lord laughed out loud.
Lu Mingshu was placed in a bucket again, and the procedures repeated.
The pain came again, but after the previous testing, Lu Mingshu seemed to feel better this time around. The pain was still there, but she was more awake now.
After the experiment, she was sent back to the cell and woke up within six hours.
“Boy, it worked!” The Drug Lord burst into the room where Xie Lianzhen was.
“What?” Xie Lianzhen maintained a smile on his face.
“The girl could withstand another round. Her mind and physical body are strengthened, and there’s no erosion! Not even a single bit!”
Xie Lianzhen furrowed his brow. “What did you say?”
“I’m going to continue! When this reaches the next level, it will be even stronger than talent, and by then, I’ll be able to breakthrough! Hahaha!” He then crossed his arms and sulked. “Let me show those idiots how good I am! They will all be under me once I break through to the Assimilation Realm!”
Seeing the Drug Lord go nuts, Xie Lianzhen blinked his eyes.
So he did all this because he doesn’t have a good body construction and can’t breakthrough? Wait, who’s “they”?
Uh, nevermind, it’s not important to me anyway. Who’s the girl though? Such a poisonous drug would definitely cause some damage. How can she still be totally fine?
This lab rat is interesting. I want to see how special she is.
