Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Brother Ren, if we can't do it openly, we can do it secretly. Can't we just think of a way to get it back?" Li Yuzhou interjected carefully. Both he and sun baolu had their knees injured by Lin Yi, and they still couldn't stand up. They could only crawl on their hands, and if they had a bowl with them, they'd be begging for food. They hated Lin Yi to the bone.

"That's right, that's right. We'll give him a taste of his own medicine. We'll make him suffer in silence!" Sun baolu agreed.

"Giving him a taste of his own medicine? Can you think of a way to repay me?" Ren Zhongyuan glanced at the two of them and frowned.""This matter can not be delayed. If we reach the East Province, we don't know which school that kid and ning Xuefei will go to. By then, it will be too late to deal with him. We must act before he disembarks!"

"Uh ..." Li Yuzhou and sun baolu looked at each other in dismay. It was easy to talk about this, but it was not something that could be thought of in a short time.

"Isn't it just empty words? "In my opinion, this matter is actually not difficult. Brother Ren, have you forgotten that the East province's disciples all have to work on the ship in shifts, and even the few of us are no exception. Although that kid has the title of the West Island's Prince Consort, he certainly can't make an exception. After all, he's going to study at the East Province Academy, so he naturally has to follow our East province's rules!" Yi Xiaotian said while pinching his chin.

"That's right. As long as he works in shifts, we'll have the opportunity to frame him and let him have a taste of what it's like to be unable to defend himself!" Ren Zhongyuan clapped his hands excitedly.

"So, brother Ren, you've already thought of what to do?" Yi Xiaotian asked with great interest.

"That's right. Just wait for a good show. This time, I'll definitely force this Fuma of the West Island into a dead end, hehe!" Killing intent flashed in Ren Zhongyuan's eyes. Although he didn't dare to do it openly because of Liu Ziyu's fear, as long as Lin Yi couldn't defend himself, even Liu Ziyu wouldn't be able to protect him!

The next day, just as Ren chongyuan and the others expected, all the East Province disciples, including Lin Yi and ning Xuefei, were assigned to work in shifts. Ning Xuefei's task was to clean the deck with Huo yudie and the others, while Lin Yi was assigned to the canteen to put all kinds of delicious food into the celestial stone Jade pool.

It was a simple errand-there wasn't anything special about where the food was placed, as long as it was within reach. It wasn't difficult or laborious, and Lin Yi finished the job in a short time.

It was lunch time, and the East Province disciples arrived at the cafeteria in groups of three to five. Naturally, Lin Yi was still with Huo yudie, ning Xuefei, and the others. He passed by Ren Zhongyuan and the others on the way, but to his surprise, this guy only looked at him coldly and didn't come looking for trouble. Was he really scared by Liu Ziyu's words?

However, what did that sinister smile on his face mean? Lin Yi shook his head, feeling that something wasn't right, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

After four hours, Lin Yi's bad feeling finally became a reality. All the East Province disciples were poisoned!

The symptoms were very strange. There was only a faint poisonous gas wandering around in the meridians of the body. Other than that, there was no other special symptom. Everyone seemed normal at first glance, and even the circulation of their zhenqi was smooth. The only thing was that this poisonous gas could not be expelled out of their bodies no matter what method was used.

If that was all, it would be fine. The problem was that the poison gas would suddenly invade the heart meridian, and once the heart meridian was invaded by the poison gas, then it would not be far from death.

All the East province's disciples had gathered together, and each of them looked at each other with worry. In the past four hours, three disciples 'heart meridians had been damaged, and Liu Ziyu had barely managed to keep their last breath. Now, their lives were in danger, and they could die at any moment.

If they didn't find a way to get rid of the poison in their bodies as soon as possible, the others would end up the same way sooner or later. Perhaps, the entire boat of East Province disciples would lose their lives!

Lin Yi was the only one who wasn't affected-he was immune to poison, and normal poisons wouldn't work on him. The others didn't know this, though, and thought that he was poisoned as well. After all, even Liu Ziyu, a Big Shot of the Academy, had not been spared, so the toxicity was no small matter.

For a moment, the atmosphere on the ship was extremely tense. Everyone was looking at each other and guarding against each other. It was absolutely impossible for there to be no one behind such a large-scale poisoning incident!

"Vice Dean Liu, I believe that there's a mastermind behind this incident. We can only obtain the antidote if we quickly find him!" Ren Zhongyuan immediately jumped out and said.

The rest of the people nodded and shouted loudly to capture the real murderer. Their lives were at stake, and there was no room for hesitation or delay.

"You have a clue?" Liu Ziyu looked at him with a slight frown. This matter was strange from the beginning to the end, and it made people feel baffled.

If someone had really poisoned the food on purpose, how did he do it? what was his intention?

If they really wanted to poison someone to death, they could have chosen a more violent poison instead of giving everyone time to react like this. Even if they couldn't cure the poison, it was entirely possible to find the real murderer in this little time. Wasn't this asking for trouble?

Thinking about it carefully, every link here was inexplicably strange, but now that the crowd was agitated, the situation was likely to get out of control if it dragged on. At that time, it would really be out of control!

Liu Ziyu could only declare that they had found the real culprit behind the poisoning to appease the people.

"There are!" Ren Zhongyuan's decisive answer immediately roused everyone's spirits. He swept his gaze across everyone's faces with feigned suspicion before he slowly said,""I just realized that only the disciples of the East Province were poisoned, but all the crew members are safe and sound. Don't you think this is the most obvious clue?"

"What do you mean?" Those with slower reactions could not figure it out, but Yi Xiaotian smacked his head and said,""Brother Ren, do you mean that the murderer poisoned our food?"

"That's right, that's exactly the case!" Ren Zhongyuan put on a wise expression as if he had seen through everything. He put on an air of superiority before explaining,""Everyone should know that although the crew and the East Province disciples share the living area, they have their own dining hall. If the murderer poisoned the water or used something like a poisonous fragrance, the crew would definitely be affected. So the answer is obvious. The murderer poisoned our food!" (To be continued.)
