Su Li was a little frustrated. She couldn’t help but scratch her head. A woman’s sixth sense told her that those people definitely weren’t lying, but reality slapped her in the face. The device had detected that there was no poison at all!
So what was the problem?
If she wanted to test if there was anything wrong with the water, it was best to test it with her own body. As long as she drank the water in the bucket, she would know if it was poisonous.
Su Li looked down at the water in the bucket. The makeup on her face was yet to be removed. Seeing her own reflection in the water. Su Li was almost frightened by herself!
She touched her face and said, “I have to say that this is really scary. No wonder those people were scared out of their wits!”
In the future, if anyone offended her, she would pretend to be a ghost in the middle of the night to scare them. This was much more exciting than hitting someone.
However, should she drink this water or not?
If this poison was not easy to cure, wouldn’t she die on the spot?
If she didn’t resolve this matter tonight, someone would come to fetch water home to drink tomorrow morning. She couldn’t stop them by saying that the water was poisonous, right?
At that time, others would definitely think that she was spouting nonsense. It was fine if they did not believe her, but she might even be beaten up by the villagers.
Although she did not have a good impression of the people in the village, they had not done anything heinous. In addition, there were many flower buds in the village. That was the future of the entire village.
Su Li suddenly thought of something and patted her head. “Oh god, why am I so stupid? Aren’t there a few ready-made people? Wouldn’t it be fine if we use them as experiments?”
Su Li felt that she had found a way to resolve the matter. Not only did she not have to try it herself, but she will also know if there was a problem with the water.
Su Li excitedly carried the water to the group of people. These people were still unconscious. If she experimented like this, she would definitely not achieve the desired effect.
Su Li stroked her chin. “It’s better to wake them up!”
In order to prevent these people from resisting and not being able to control the situation later, Su Li took out a rope from her space and tied these people under the tree.
In the past, when she had to use vines to tie people up, she felt that it would be much more convenient for her if she had a rope, so she had prepared some and placed them in her space. Tonight, they came in handy.
Soon, those people were tied up by Su Li. She realized that she was getting more and more proficient in tying people up. Her technique was also getting better and better. Ordinary people could not undo the knot she had tied.
Indeed, practice made perfect. In the future, she had to tie up more people!
After confirming that they could not struggle anymore, Su Li took out another syringe and smiled sweetly at them. “I’ll let you try my new product. You’re the first people to try it!”
This medicine was something she had recently developed. It could allow one to quickly wake up from a coma, but the side effects were also very serious. It would make one unable to sleep for three days and three nights. No matter how sleepy one was, they would not be able to sleep. This injection could be said to be Su Li’s failed product.
However, it was just right to use the failed products to deal with these people. She could also find a way to improve them.
One of them opened his eyes. When he saw Su Li’s infinitely magnified ghost face, he was so frightened that he almost fainted.
“Ah- Ghost!!”
Su Li was very satisfied with his performance. She smiled faintly. “Don’t be afraid. I’m a loyal ghost. I can eat your brains later. I’ll save your eyes for the last moment.”
“…” Let them go if she had the guts!!
Su Li stuck out her tongue and licked it. “It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten brain kernels. The taste should still be the same, right? However, you guys are silly. I wonder if I’ll become stupid after eating your brain kernels?”
Su Li’s bloody mouth was too scary. It made people think that she would eat them in one bite. Those people were so frightened that they did not dare to open their eyes to look at her.
Su Li didn’t want to tease them anymore. She pinched open one of their mouths and poured the water into his mouth.
Gulp, gulp-
The man took a big gulp.
“Ahem, what are you doing?”
Su Li glanced at him. “Just do whatever I tell you to do. Don’t talk so much nonsense, or I’ll eat your brain immediately.”
Hearing this, the person did not dare to continue speaking.
Su Li waited quietly for his reaction, but after a while, there was nothing unusual about that person.
Could it be that he had drunk too little water? Otherwise, why was there no reaction at all?
Hence, Su Li gave him some water. That person’s stomach bulged visibly.
“Burp!”
Why did this ghost keep giving him water? Could it be that the water was from that well?
At the thought that he might be poisoned to death, that person immediately retched.
Su Li took out a silver needle and flew towards him. “If you dare to spit it out,
I’ll get you to come to the Hade’s Palace to accompany me immediately.” After receiving the death threat, the person could only shut his mouth obediently.
Unintentionally, he saw Su Li’s shadow reflected in the bucket. His eyes widened and he realized that there was another shadow on the ground.
Didn’t they say that ghosts didn’t have shadows? Why did this ghost have two shadows?
That person’s mind was already in a mess, and he could not think on his own at all.
Su Li realized that there was nothing wrong with this person. Su Li started a second person, followed by a third…
In the end, the few of them finished the bucket of water, but there was still nothing wrong with their bodies.
Could it be that there was really nothing wrong with the water? Otherwise, why didn’t these people react at all?!
Just as Su Li thought that there was really nothing wrong with the water, spots and bumps appeared on the first person’s body. Moreover, these things were like hair noodles. In a short while, they covered his entire body, even his face. That person’s current appearance was extremely terrifying.
Su Li widened her eyes and looked at everything in front of her. She took out her gloves and put them on before daring to touch that person.
“Ah!! It’s so itchy- I’ That person screamed in pain. Su Li asked, “Other than itching, what else do you feel?”
“Itchy!!” Other than itching, it was still itchy.
Soon, the second person reacted. His symptoms were very similar to the first person, and so was the third person…
Su Li looked at their symptoms and made a guess in her heart. These symptoms looked simple and easy to deal with, but they looked like infectious diseases. If everyone in the village had such symptoms, what would others think?
Who would dare to come out and treat them?
She remembered that if a village had an infectious disease, they would surround the entire village. If there was no effective solution to the illness in the end, it would burn the village down.
Su Li was stunned by this terrifying method. She felt that the person behind the scenes definitely did not just want others to thank him.. Perhaps he wanted to destroy everything?
