Chapter 726 - 597: This Medicine Is Just Too Potent!

Splat...

Good Fortune ignored Xie Yanshan’s words, until he saw Zhang Su approaching, he tossed the hen onto the ground, wagging his tail with a face full of triumph, not at all concerned by Xie Yanshan’s frustration nearby.

"Dead, completely dead, alas, what a waste, ruined a chicken!"

Xie Yanshan covered his face with one hand, picked up the hen from the ground with the other, shook it a bit; it hung limp, drooping its head and wings, sighing dejectedly.

"Woof!"

Good Fortune wasn’t pleased with Xie Yanshan’s words, what do you mean, waste?

With a jump, it snatched the hen back from his hand, held it in its mouth, planning to take it away to eat; it’s not a waste at all!

"Hey, Old Xie, what are you up to, what’s with your face... come on, let’s talk inside Cui Leng Pavilion!"

Zhang Su put an arm around Xie Yanshan’s shoulder, and gave Good Fortune a knowing look.

Good Fortune moved swiftly, darting into the courtyard in an instant, dumped the hen onto the ground, then sat beside it, with a sway of its body and a gleam in its eyes, looking very pleased.

The dog and the two men left everyone’s sight, sparking a wave of discussion.

"Hey, hey, what do you think Dr. Xie is researching this time, you just saw that chicken, it’s super fierce, it can’t be some kind of biochemical drug, right, to turn us into super soldiers!"

"You really have some imagination, biochemical drugs, super soldiers, but with the hardware conditions at our camp, do you think it’s possible?"

"Oh no, could it be that the chicken has also turned zombie, that’s not good, I saw that Dr. Xie’s face was scratched!"

"Stop guessing, for this long, we’ve seen plenty of dead animals, none have turned zombie, stop wasting your brain cells, okay, let’s think about how to deal with the zombie in the train carriage later!"

Not only were the people from the Yama Corps discussing, but on the other side, on the terrace of the second floor of Little Lucky Inn, Fu Weijun and Duan Wuhu were also conversing.

"Old Xie must’ve fed the chicken that pill Mr. Zhang took out last time, it’s really nonsense..."

"What’s wrong, is there something wrong with the procedure?"

Duan Wuhu asked in confusion, if there was any problem, he needed to report it to Zhang Su in time.

"Of course it’s wrong, do you remember how Mr. Zhang introduced that drug before? It was developed to boost combat capabilities drastically. Since it’s to boost combat capabilities, it’s obviously meant for people to take, how can you give it to a chicken, it’s so ridiculous!

To test it, I’d just cut off a small piece to consume, and I’d soon provide a detailed report, Old Xie is too conservative!"

"I think you’re the one being ridiculous!"

Duan Wuhu was speechless, thinking to himself that this guy really doesn’t show any regret at all, he was quite worried whether Fu Weijun could reform after his ten-day punishment.

Beside the blacksmith’s workshop, Ding Yong Country and Zheng Ziwen were also watching the commotion, both wearing aprons, looking a bit odd, but standing in the workshop, they had quite a presence.

"Uncle, what was that just now?"

Zheng Ziwen asked, polishing rust with curiosity and delight on his face, he thought the flying chicken and flying dog were very amusing.

Ding Yong Country, however, frowned slightly: "I’m not sure, I just know that the dog is incredibly strong, you better not provoke it in the future, got it?"

"I’m not stupid, I could tell, that dog is not only strong, but only listens to Brother Zhang, don’t worry, I won’t cause trouble."

Zheng Ziwen had been on the mountain for days, hearing and seeing all kinds of things, gradually realizing his own insignificance, starting to learn to be cautious with his words and actions.

However, someone else was quite the opposite, and that was Wang Zhetao on the second floor of Wangshan Inn.

He excitedly recounted the scene to his dad, with enthusiasm in his voice: "Dad, you see, even a dog in the camp is this strong, Brother Zhang and the others must’ve developed some drug to enhance people, can you go ask him for some, please?"

"Like hell I will!"

Wang Guangjun seemed aware of his own loud voice, deliberately lowered his tone to reply to Wang Zhetao: "Son, can you just settle down a bit, we came to live on Celestial Horse Island, you should focus on doing your work honestly, stop with the sly thoughts, did you hear me?"

Knowing a son better than anyone, Tan Huajun could gather that Wang Zhetao was slacking, and it was clear to Wang Guangjun too, why else would he work two or three people’s work alone? Just to shut others up from talking about Wang Zhetao...

Reprimanded, Wang Zhetao pouted and said no more, turning to look out the window, his eyes moving rapidly, clearly thinking of something.

"Mr. Zhang, to be honest, this was a chicken I applied to use for experiments, alas... you see, now it’s like this..."

Walking into Cui Leng Pavilion, Xie Yanshan saw the dead hen on the ground, felt pained again, and shot a frustrated look at the waggling Corgi.

Feeling sorry for the hen, the drug, and the experimental sample that didn’t have time to be tested after the drug reaction!

"Is this from the pill I gave you?"

Zhang Su had been busy these days, and had truthfully forgotten about this, not anticipating such a dramatic experiment.

"Yes, it is, I managed to fetch a chicken yesterday with difficulty, started the experiment today, and now it’s dead, such a pity."

"Enough with the pity, is your face okay, I saw you bled a lot..."

Zhang Su motioned for Xie Yanshan to move his hand; after inspecting the wound, he immediately pulled out a walkie-talkie: "Xiaoshan, Dr. Xie has a large cut on his face, please bring some supplies to handle it."

Thud thud thud...

Just then, a hurried series of footsteps came downstairs, and Zuo Fengjuan came holding gauze, disinfectant, and other items: "Brother Zhang, I know a bit about first aid, let me treat Dr. Xie for now."

"Alright, let’s go inside, settle the wound while we talk."

"Woof!"

Zhang Su coordinated a group walking inside, Good Fortune gave a bark, nudged the hen with its nose, then shook its head towards the outside, clearly asking if it could take its trophy away.

"Put it down, put it down, how dare you eat anything, not afraid of being poisoned! Today’s trouble, I’ll have the kitchen give you an extra portion this noon, alright?"

Zhang Su coaxed Good Fortune like a child.

"Whimper..."

Good Fortune unwillingly whined, tapping its paw on the ground, human-like, and with a slap of its paw, pushed the hen to a corner, then dashed out like a flash and disappeared.

"Damn..."

Zhang Su smirked, knowing that currently, the only one that dared to act spoiled around him in the camp was this little guy. He walked over and picked up the hen at the wall corner, carrying it into the laboratory.

"The reality diverged from expectation, Mr. Zhang, my initial judgment was wrong, the zombie organ tissues in the core weren’t the key!"

Xie Yanshan raised his head while receiving treatment, and as soon as Zhang Su walked in, he began to report the situation.

"Huh?"

Zhang Su was taken aback: "So was the hen allergic to pepper and chili, eating it just made it go wild?"

He remembered that the major components of that white wax pill were just those, along with flour, only the "filling" in the center was extraordinary, being fragments of a zombie organ.

"Hiss... Nurse Zhong, sorry for the trouble."

Xie Yanshan winced in pain, just about to speak when he noticed Zhong Xiaoshan walking in briskly.

"It’s alright, here, let me take a look at the situation first..." Zhong Xiaoshan didn’t say much, starting to work right away.

"Let’s talk while treating."

Zhang Su signaled for Xie Yanshan to continue speaking.

Zhong Xiaoshan efficiently handled the wound, with Zuo Fengjuan assisting; although no words were exchanged, their coordination was quite good.

"It can’t be an allergy..."

Xie Yanshan said, "I suspect it’s mutual catalysis, but what exactly catalyzed what, or in addition to flour, pepper, and chili, whether there are other unknown components, remains unclear, in any case, I just..."

Subsequently, Xie Yanshan explained the basic process of the experiment; at first, he fed the hen 0.1 grams of organ tissue, and the hen showed no reaction, after waiting ten minutes, he took 0.1 grams from the shell and fed it to the hen.

The moment the hen ate the powder from the shell, within less than five seconds, its eyes turned red, and an aura of brutality emerged with its puffed-up feathers.

"Luckily, I wasn’t handling it inside the lab at that time, or this room would’ve been destroyed..."

Xie Yanshan was very satisfied with his foresight.

"I think instead of worrying about the room, you should worry about your own safety!"

Zhang Su glanced at the hen on the floor, its wingtips stained with blood, no need to guess; the wound on Xie Yanshan’s face was made by its wings — understanding if it were pecked with the beak or clawed by the talons, but slicing the face with a wingtip was quite fierce.

If the old man had been locked in a room with a crazy hen, it wouldn’t take long, half a minute, to cut him to pieces.
