Chapter 109: The Arrival of the Holy Maiden of the White Lotus
"All the servants are poisoned?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan narrowed his eyes, knowing that this matter was definitely not simple.
"Yes!"
The old butler replied with fear, obviously frightened by the scene.
All the servants under his jurisdiction were poisoned, something he had never encountered in all his years of service.
Not to mention that the poison was extremely terrifying.
"Let's go and take a look."
Lin Fan remained calm and nodded as he walked towards the outer courtyard.
In the face of Max Level medical skills, as long as they weren't dead on the spot, he could bring them back from the hands of the King of Hell.
Arriving at the outer courtyard, Su Erhu and Wang Erxiao were already there, gathering the poisoned servants together for easier handling.
"Brother Fan."
When they saw Lin Fan approaching, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
They were also aware of Lin Fan's medical skills, which was why they immediately gathered the poisoned servants together upon learning of the situation.
This was to facilitate Lin Fan's treatment.
"Are all the poisoned ones here?"
Lin Fan looked at the poisoned servants in the room and asked.
Both of them nodded, "They're all here."
Because the poisoning occurred at night when the servants were preparing to rest, they were all in the same courtyard, so it wasn't difficult to gather them together. With the enhanced physique of the two men, it didn't take much time either.
"Alright, go and bring some hot water."
Lin Fan nodded in response and then approached the poisoned servants.
These servants were all maids from the outer courtyard, each of them young and with pleasant appearances.
Usually, when they were busy, they were a beautiful sight to behold.
But now, they had lost their usual appearance. Not only were their faces bruised and swollen, but their features were also twisted together, as if they were enduring unknown pain. Occasionally, their bodies would twitch.
As for foaming at the mouth, that was already a mild symptom.
No wonder the old butler was frightened. It did look quite terrifying.
"Hehe, you came so quickly."
With just a glance, Lin Fan knew the situation and confirmed his previous speculation.
The hot water arrived quickly.
Lin Fan took out his personal silver needle kit and began the detoxification process.
Half an hour later.
The maids who had previously had bruised faces and twisted features had all returned to normal. Although their faces were pale due to the severe depletion of their vitality, their breathing had stabilized.
Many of those with better constitutions had already regained consciousness and gratefully thanked their master.
"You all rest well. Someone will bring you medicinal soup later. After drinking it and resting for a night, there won't be any major problems tomorrow, and you can move around as usual."
Lin Fan reassured them, as these people had suffered unjustly on his behalf.
"Thank you, Master, for your mercy."
The maids were even more grateful.
Lin Fan didn't say much more and just nodded before leaving.
Several wives also received the news and came over.
"Husband, are they alright?"
Several wives asked worriedly. Although they were servants, they didn't have the indifference of wealthy families, thinking that servants were just objects and that it didn't matter if they died, they could just be replaced.
Lin Fan shook his head. "They're all fine. They just need to drink some medicine and rest for the night."
"That's good."
The wives breathed a sigh of relief at his words.
Among them, Dao Miaomiao furrowed her brows, recalling a memory, and couldn't help but speak up. "Husband, all these servants were poisoned together, and the symptoms of the poison are so strange. Do you think it's the work of that demon woman?"
Lin Fan nodded slightly. "There's a possibility, but you don't need to worry about it. I will handle it. It's late now, and it's cold outside. You should go back and rest."
"Alright."
Since her husband had spoken, they naturally didn't say anything more and obediently went back to rest.
Lin Fan arranged for the wives to go back and rest, then headed towards the blacksmith's room, intending to handle the matter at hand.
But as he walked past a section of the wall, his footsteps came to a halt, and he looked up towards the wall.
At some point,
Standing tall on top of the high wall was a figure.
This figure was dressed entirely in white, even wearing a white hood on their head, resembling a white ghost in the night.
Their face was also covered by a silver mask, making it impossible to see their features.
When Lin Fan looked over, the figure spoke with a light laugh.
"The gift I have brought for you today, I wonder if you are satisfied?"
Lin Fan didn't say anything, and after a while, he calmly asked, "White Lotus Saintess?"
The figure in white maintained their light laughter and said, "Correct, you recognized this Saintess at first glance. Since that's the case, I believe you also understand why this Saintess has come here?"
"I don't know."
Lin Fan also chuckled lightly.
"You..."
The figure in white was clearly taken aback for a moment, but quickly regained their smile.
Indeed, she was the White Lotus Saintess who had come to his doorstep. As for why she came to this place, the meaning was naturally self-evident, she came to find Lin Fan.
As for why,
There must be some grudge between the two sides. The information provided by Lin Fan had undoubtedly caused heavy losses to the White Lotus Sect.
If it weren't for her stepping in to turn the tide, the White Lotus Sect would have become a thing of the past.
In addition,
There was also Lin Fan's detoxification ability.
This had sparked her competitive spirit.
As someone who had absolute confidence in her ability to use poison, how could she tolerate her carefully prepared poison being easily neutralized by someone, and still remain indifferent?
This time, she came to determine the winner and loser!
As for all the maids being poisoned tonight, it was just the gift she sent, or perhaps a challenge.
"Today is just a gift, what I have carefully prepared for you is yet to come. I hope your detoxification ability is truly as strong as you claim, otherwise, hehe~"
The White Lotus Saintess didn't explain further, leaving behind a declaration and disappearing with a light laughter.
This disappearing and reappearing technique, even if Lin Fan wanted to keep the other party, he couldn't.
Unless they were close to each other.
Then he could use his explosive power to quickly take down the other party.
But even if he couldn't keep her, he didn't care, nor was he flustered.
In the face of the other party's departing words, he smiled faintly and said, "If it were something else, perhaps I wouldn't be able to do anything, but just a small poison, I can handle it with ease."
After saying that,
He also left with big strides, without attempting to chase after the other party.
The next day,
Lin Fan began another busy day, as if nothing had happened.
However, everyone in the manor was given a pale green pill and instructed to take it.
In the following days,
The White Lotus Saintess did not appear, just like her previous appearances were illusions.
The poisoned maids recovered and resumed their daily work, doing whatever they needed to do.
As for the previous poisoning, it gradually faded from memory.
Lin Fan spent his days hammering away in the blacksmith's room, occasionally spending some time in the pill room. Just like forgetting about the White Lotus Saintess, he did whatever he needed to do.
The White Lotus Saintess stood on top of a mountain peak, looking down at everything in the manor. The eyes visible outside of her mask were somewhat cold, clearly dissatisfied with this scene.
She had originally thought that with her intimidation and the gift she had brought, everyone in the manor would live in fear and anxiety, afraid of being poisoned again.
Especially the master, Lin Fan, who should be unable to sleep every night, filled with fear.
But now,
The situation she had imagined simply did not occur.
It was as if her appearance and plans were just adding to the amusement like a clown.
"Heh, it seems that the gift I previously sent didn't please you, but since that's the case, then I'll just give you a big gift directly. I hope you can still remain so calm."
The corners of the White Lotus Saintess's mouth under the mask slightly curved upwards, and a flickering message appeared on the mountain peak.
