“Yes.” Hui ao nodded his head resentfully. He understood Leng ruoxue’s meaning. However, it did not feel good to only be able to look but not eat.
“Grape! Leave the food here and let’s go back to the tent!” Leng ruoxue looked at Hui ao’s expression and laughed.
“Miss! Didn’t you forbid little grayley from eating our food? Why are you still here?” Grape asked, puzzled.
“During this period of time, we have been sending food to little grey every day. If we don’t send it today, it will make people suspicious. But if we leave the food here and something happens to Hui ao before he can eat it, even if Philip wants to deny it, he can ‘t.” Leng ruoxue chuckled as she explained.
“Miss! You’re so cunning!” Grape’s face was full of admiration as he stared at Leng ruoxue with bright eyes.
Hearing grape’s words, Leng ruoxue’s forehead was filled with black lines. She thought to herself,’is grape complimenting me?
“Grape! Let’s go back!” Leng ruoxue said as she wiped the cold sweat off her forehead.
“Yes, little grey! You’re not allowed to eat it! Otherwise, all our efforts will be in vain. ” After placing the food next to Hui ao, grape worriedly reminded him again.
“I know.” Hui ao was very depressed! Extremely depressed! However, thinking of the pain it was about to suffer, it endured it.
Not long after Leng ruoxue brought the grapes back to the tent, she saw Ning Hai running over with sweat all over his head. He asked while panting,””Ruoxue! Something happened to Hui ao! What did you feed it?”
“Big brother ning! So what if it was Hui ao? We’re giving it the same food as usual!” Leng ruoxue played dumb.
“Hui ao seems to have been poisoned and is rolling on the ground in pain! AI! What do we do now?” Ning Haichou’s brows were knitted together. Of course, he did not believe that Leng ruoxue and the others would harm Hui ao. After all, Hui ao got along well with them. However, this place was far from the city. Even if he wanted to find an Alchemist to treat Hui ao, he would not have the chance. This was because the other people’s flying beasts were not fast enough. By the time they found The Alchemist, Hui ao would be in so much pain that he would die!
“How did you get poisoned?” Leng ruoxue asked with a puzzled look.
“Someone said that after you delivered the food to it, Hui ao was poisoned.” Ning Hai found it difficult to say. Then, he was afraid that Leng ruoxue would misunderstand him, so he quickly added,””No matter what other people say, big brother ning absolutely believes that this matter has nothing to do with you.”
“Big brother ning! As long as you believe us, we don’t care about what others say. Besides, if I’m not wrong, the person who said that should be miss Philip!” Leng ruoxue asked with a cold smile.
“Yes.” Ning Hai nodded, his face full of helplessness.
“Big brother ning! Since some people suspect that Hui ao’s poisoning is related to us, then we should go and clarify it. Moreover, I know a little about alchemy, let me take a look for Hui ao!” Leng ruoxue said indifferently.
“Ruoxue! You know alchemy?” Hearing that Leng ruoxue knew how to refine pills, Ning Hai was overjoyed and quickly asked.
“Yes, I know a little. However, I have to see Hui ao’s condition first before I can decide if there is a way to save him.” Leng ruoxue said with a faint smile. In fact, the reason why she let Hui ao eat the food that Philip served was because she was confident that she could save Hui ao. However, in front of Ning Hai, she would not be too confident.
“Ruoxue, regardless of whether you can save Hui ao or not, I’ll thank you first.” After hearing what Leng ruoxue had to say, Ning Hai quickly said.
“Big brother ning, don’t worry. I’ll do my best.” Leng ruoxue promised.
Then, Leng ruoxue and the other two followed Ning Hai out of the tent to check on Hui ao.
Just as he walked to Hui ao’s side, Philip shouted at the top of his voice,””They’re the ones who harmed the captain’s Beastie. They’re such ungrateful guys. The captain was so good to them, and Hui ao often drove them, but they actually dared to do it! This is really too despicable, Captain! Don’t let them off! If they can harm Hui ao today, they might be able to harm us tomorrow! We can’t have such a dangerous person in our team, don’t you think?”
Philip tried to stir up the crowd’s emotions, but she realized that the crowd was rather cold to her words, which made her a little puzzled.
What was going on with these people? How could he be so indifferent to this matter? Were they not afraid? What if they were the ones who were poisoned next time?
“Philip! Shut your mouth! Don’t talk nonsense before the matter is cleared up. ” Ning Hai heard Philip’s words and warned him unhappily. He was getting more and more dissatisfied with Philip.
“Captain! The one who was poisoned was your Beastie! How can you be so cold?” Philip’s face was filled with disbelief.
“Do you want everyone to accuse others without any evidence or truth, just like you? What I want is evidence. If you can produce evidence to prove that Hui ao was poisoned after eating the food brought by ruoxue and the others, I will believe your words. ” Ning Hai said coldly. His words were not only for Philip, but also for everyone present.
“Captain! I believe that miss Leng and the others would not poison Hui ao. They don’t have any conflicts with Hui ao. Moreover, we often eat the food they prepare. How come nothing happened to us?” A young man who had a good relationship with Leng ruoxue and the rest spoke.
“Captain! I also believe in miss Leng and the others. They have no reason to harm Hui ao. If we have to talk about the person who has a grudge with Hui ao, it’s actually Philip. ” Someone echoed.
“Yuexi! What do you mean by that?” Hearing this, Philip immediately exploded.
“I’m telling the truth! We all know that among all the people here, only you have a grudge against Hui ao. The first thing you wanted to do when you came back was to beat it up!” The man called Yue Xi said with a faint smile.
“Yuexi! Don’t spout nonsense! Why would I do that? Hmph! It’s obvious that you’ve taken a fancy to this Vixen and wanted to please her, so you’re deliberately framing me!” Philip’s face turned red as he roared.
“Philip, do you think that everyone is as ignorant as you?” Yue Xi laughed sarcastically. He did not deny that he had a good impression of Leng ruoxue, but that was only limited to his appreciation of beautiful things. He knew very well that a woman like Leng ruoxue was not someone an ordinary man like him could have. So, naturally, he would not have any improper thoughts about Leng ruoxue.
