Chapter 22: Delicate Autumn Dew

“The food today is pretty good.”

Jun Ruyi praised him and suddenly remembered something, so she said to Ruhua again: "Sit down and eat too. There are only three of us in this yard, no one can see it, and no one will gossip."

As he said that, he looked at Jun Wuye and asked, "Wuye, can you please let Ruhua sit down and eat together?"

"Yes." Jun Wuye nodded in agreement.

Ruhua's heart suddenly rose up and said quickly: "Miss, no need, I'll wait until you finish eating."

"When we finish eating, the food will be cold." Jun Ruyi persuaded.

"It's okay, the food is cold and it's better to heat it up again. I'm used to eating leftovers. At this time, I have to sit down and eat with the young master and lady. I will feel uncomfortable all over." Ruhua shook her head slightly.

"It's only once or twice. You won't feel uncomfortable after getting used to it." Jun Ruyi stood up and pulled Ruhua to sit down, and then personally found a pair of bowls and chopsticks, and stuffed them to Ruhua a little toughly.

Ruhua held the bowls and chopsticks and looked at the table of dishes, and tears suddenly burst out from her eyes.

"Why are you crying?" Jun Ruyi was very surprised and was at a loss for a moment.

"Miss, you are so nice to me." Ruhua said in tears.

"It's nothing. Don't cry. Eating when you cry will not taste good either." Jun Ruyi touched Ruhua's head and said comfortingly.

Ruhua cried even louder and soon stood up, "Master, Miss, you eat first, I'll wait before you come back." After that, he turned around and rushed out.

However, at this moment, Jun Wuye, who was eating vegetables silently almost the whole time, suddenly shouted: "Stop!"

Jun Wuye spoke, Ruhua naturally dared not ignore him.

Her figure paused, and she didn't look back, but just kept wiping her tears.

Jun Wuye glanced at Ruhua and said, "Does Linglong Qiulu make you feel scared?"

"Well……"

Ruhua was slightly surprised, with her back facing Jun Wuye and Jun Ruyi, and a hint of panic flashed across her face.

"Linglong Qiulu? What Linglong Qiulu?" Jun Ruyi was also a little surprised, but she was the one who knew nothing and couldn't react for a moment.

After a while of silence, Ruhua spoke, "Young Master, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"

"You dare not eat it, not because you are concerned about our identity, but because you poisoned the dish, a very poison called Linglong Qiulu." Jun Wuye exposed it without hesitation.

"Is this dish poisonous?!" Jun Ruyi was startled, and quickly threw down her chopsticks, raised her hand, trying to pick out the things she had just eaten.

However, soon she realized something was wrong, so she hurriedly retracted her hand and glanced at Jun Wuye secretly, with a little uneasy between her eyebrows, as if she was worried that Jun Wuye would have seen the indecent scene just now.

Seeing that Jun Wuye's expression was as normal and did not look up at her, she asked, "Linglong Qiulu? Is it the colorless and tasteless, without antidote, and cannot be forced out with the power of true energy. Just one drop can make people poison. Even a powerful warrior cannot be spared?"

"That's right." Jun Wuye nodded gently.

Ruhua still turned her back to the two of them, but at this time her heart was already full of turmoil.

She did poison the dish. Although she didn't know what poison it was, she knew that the poison was indeed a very colorless and tasteless poison.

When Jun Miao first told her Linglong Qiulu that this poison cannot be tasted with his mouth, and it cannot be detected with a silver needle, let alone other methods.

In other words, as long as she was not found out when she poisoned her, no one would know that she had poisoned her food.

Before she went to prepare the meal, Jun Wuye should have been staying in the yard. It was impossible for Jun Wuye to see the poisoning process. So how did Jun Wuye know that she poisoned the food?

Not only did she know that she poisoned the dish, but she also knew that the poison was Linglong Qiulu. This was amazing!

How did you discover it? Why can you know it clearly?

"What? Do you dare not admit it?" Jun Wuye looked at Ruhua's back and said again.

Ruhua no longer cried, but took out a handkerchief to wipe the tears.

After a while, she put away her handkerchief, turned around, looked at Jun Wuye and Jun Ruyi, and nodded and admitted: "So what? You said just now that Linglong Qiulu has no antidote, and you have already been poisoned after eating the food that added Linglong Qiulu. Since that's the case, do you think I need to be afraid of you?"

Seeing Ruhua admit it, Jun Ruyi was disbelief and was also a little sad. She couldn't help but ask, "Why do you do this? Wuye and I are so sorry for you? I was full of doubts about you before, but seeing that you are really taking care of us with all your heart, I began to treat you as my sister. Why do you still do such a thing as sorry for Wuye and I?"

"Miss, you are still too naive." Ruhua shook her head slightly, "I am the Third Master's person, not yours. I will do whatever the Third Master asked me to do. Before, I was false to you, and it was also the Third Master's order. I hope to dig out the Young Master's secret and hope to get that powerful palm technique from you, but now I don't need it."

"So I sent you to poison the food. Do you want to poison us?" Jun Ruyi asked again.

"That's right, the third master has promised me that as long as the matter goes well this time, he will take me as his concubine and let me become the master of the Jun Mansion. With such benefits, why should I continue to serve you?" Ruhua said with a sneer.

“…”

Jun Ruyi stopped talking, but her face was filled with disappointment.

But Jun Wuye took the chopsticks and picked up the dishes on the table and continued to eat. "It's so beautiful to think about it, but unfortunately you will never be the master of Jun's mansion."

"You...you know it's poisonous but you dare to continue eating it?" Seeing this, Ruhua suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Do you think I'm going to die of poison?" Jun Wuye asked back.

"You have an antidote?"

Ruhua felt a little puzzled in her heart, and she quickly shook her head again, "No, you said just now, Linglong Qiulu has no antidote at all!"

As he said that, he guessed again: "You have lost the Linglong Qiulu on me? When did it happen?"

Jun Wuye did not answer, but just raised his hand and looked at Ruhua, "Go back and tell Jun Miao that I can give him a chance to survive, whether to seize it and let him do it."

After saying that, an invisible force fell on Ruhua's body and directly bombarded Ruhua.

In a blink of an eye, only Jun Wuye and Jun Ruyi were left in the yard.

Jun Wuye continued to eat vegetables, as if nothing had happened.

Jun Ruyi was sad and angry for a while, gradually calmed down, then looked at Jun Wuye and said, "Wuye, did you really get rid of Linglong Qiulu?"

"No." Jun Wuye shook his head slightly.

"Then you dare to eat?" Jun Ruyi was very confused.

"Linglong Qiulu is actually not a poison, but a great tonic. However, most people cannot refine it, so the great tonic has become a poison instead." Jun Wuye explained, "When you eat vegetables, does the Taiyin Guanghan Art work on its own? That is to refine Linglong Qiulu."

"Well……"

Jun Ruyi was slightly surprised.

I don’t know if I don’t say it, but it’s true that it’s true.

She didn't think much about it before, but now she realized that it was refining Linglong Qiulu.

It is obviously a great tonic, but it is used as a poison. It would be fine if they don’t poison them to death, but now it seems that they are cheaper.

Since there was no need to worry about the poison being killed, Jun Ruyi continued to eat it. While eating, she asked, "When did you find that the dish was poisoned?"

"Seven days ago." Jun Wuye replied.

"Ah?" Jun Ruyi was stunned.

I discovered it seven days ago? What does it mean? Could it be that the dishes they ate were prepared seven days ago?

Jun Wuye knew that Jun Ruyi had misunderstood his meaning, so he explained: "Seven days ago, Jun Hong and Jun Miao were plotting in a secret room. After discussing, the two reached a cooperation intention and wanted to poison us with Linglong Qiulu. At that time, I knew it. Ruhua poisoned him just now, and thought he was secretly done, but I also had a clear understanding of it."

Jun Ruyi swallowed her saliva and said in disbelief: "Can't our Jun Mansion be under your control, right?"

"It's not Jun's Mansion." Jun Wuye shook his head slightly, "It's the entire Yangwu City!"

...

Ruhua immediately approached Jun Miao and told Jun Miao about the failure to poison and was driven out by Jun Wuye.

"Failed?" Jun Miao frowned.

"San Master, is that Linglong Qiulu fake?" Ruhua couldn't help but guess.

"It's not that at least the Linglong Qiulu that Jun Hong gave me is real, and he can't joke about such things." Jun Miao shook his head slightly and looked at Ruhua again, "Are you sure Linglong Qiulu has never been dropped on you?"

"I also doubted whether Linglong Qiulu was lost on her body at first, but since I got Linglong Qiulu, I have never contacted anyone again, so the possibility of being lost should not be high." Ruhua replied.

"This is strange. Could it be that he is really not afraid of Linglong Qiulu?" Jun Miao frowned, very puzzled.

"San Master, does Linglong Qiulu really have no antidote?" Ruhua said suspiciously.

"No, if there is really an antidote, this thing wouldn't be so terrifying..."

Jun Miao said, his eyes flashing, "But it's hard to say, there is no alchemist in the world who can refine a furnace of twelve elixirs, but that boy Jun Wuye just refined it. Common sense does not apply to him at all. Maybe he really has the antidote of Linglong Qiulu."

Previously, the five major aristocratic families joined forces to put pressure on the Jun Mansion. He still didn't know why Jun Wuye was suddenly targeted by people from the five major aristocratic families.

Now seven days later, the news has spread long ago, so Jun Miao will naturally not be able to know nothing.

After knowing that Jun Wuye has such high attainments in alchemy, he felt even more that the plan to temporarily join forces with Jun Hong to deal with Jun Wuye was correct.

Being very uneasy around the super strong will always worry about whether the super strong will kill him. In contrast, the competition for the position of the head of the family is no big deal.

If you want to get rid of this uneasiness, you either leave the Jun family or get rid of that super strong man.

Jun Miao chose the latter, but now it seems that the plan has failed.

After this incident, it is really not that easy for him to get rid of Jun Wuye.

After thinking about it, he waved his hand, "Let's not mention this matter yet. Apart from bombing you out, did he say anything to you?"

Ruhua then remembered what Jun Wuye had told him, so she replied: "He said he could give you a chance to survive. Should you seize it and let it be done by yourself?"

"Hmm?" Jun Miao was puzzled immediately, not understanding what Jun Wuye said meant.

The next moment, he saw Ruhua's face change, and he covered his chest and started to wail in pain.

"Three...Three Master, help..." Ruhua asked Jun Miao for help weakly, and extended one hand to Jun Miao.

Jun Miao was shocked and quickly took two or three steps back.

Soon, Ruhua fell to the ground with a "thump" sound. The pain and howling sound gradually weakened. Her body twitched slightly, and her eyes, ears, mouth, nose and blood bleed.

"hiss……"

Jun Miao took a deep breath, looking at the terrible death, and suddenly sweated wildly on his back.
