Chapter 2879: Chapter 2879: Arsenic (5)

Mingjin held up a piece of silver and walked over.

An old lady, quick-eyed and nimble, snatched the silver and turned to run to the nearby pharmacy to buy a pack of rat poison and a pack of arsenic.

"Although my herbal liquor can’t bring people back from the dead, it definitely has the effect of detoxifying and eliminating poisons," Yang Ruxin said with a smile. "Is there anyone willing to try? Take arsenic and then drink my wine?"

The crowd instantly boiled over; isn’t this a joke? Who would want to risk their life like that?

"Mother, I’ll do it." Hei Dou stepped forward, "I can do the experiment."

"Alright." Yang Ruxin nodded.

"Well..." The old lady who bought rat poison looked anxious, "I say, owner, it’s just some troublemaker, there’s no need to joke about people’s lives."

"Madam, I’m not joking, I’m showing everyone the real effect of Fuji Herbal Liquor," Yang Ruxin said with a smile. "Son, what do you want to eat?"

Xiaozi squatted by the side, anxious, wondering what kind of poison he should eat, thinking it should be him doing this.

Lun Dou and Huang Dou were tempted by Xiaojin and Xiaojin.

"Arsenic then." Hei Dou took the arsenic.

"Child, you can’t..." The onlookers exclaimed.

Hei Dou calmly poured the arsenic into his mouth, then fell to the ground amidst the gasps of the crowd.

However, Yang Ruxin quickly poured the herbal liquor from the wooden basin into the child’s mouth.

The crowd instinctively held their breath, eyes wide, watching the handsome little boy whose face had turned pale and body was convulsing.

About a quarter of an hour later, miraculously, the little boy calmed down, his face began to recover slowly, and after a while, he actually opened his eyes: "Mother." Though he still looked weak.

Yang Ruxin nodded slightly, hurriedly stuffed an antidote pill into her son’s mouth; truly, it wasn’t necessary since these three kids had been steeped in the medicinal soups of several elders since childhood; such arsenic had no effect on them, but they had to act convincingly.

Suddenly, thunderous applause erupted around them.

"Everyone, don’t misunderstand, this doesn’t mean my liquor can detoxify; it’s just that if someone accidentally ingests poison, it can buy time for medical attention, and drinking it regularly can eliminate toxins in the body."

"I said, this Fuji Herbal Liquor has been around for so long, and everyone has felt great after drinking it. Look at me, my originally snow-white hair is now grey; how could it suddenly poison someone to death? Someone is just envious and trying to sabotage us..."

"Exactly, too unscrupulous, such people should be sent to the officials to be punished."

Just then, the shopkeeper of Yuelai Inn came running with a jar, shouting from afar, "I didn’t sell it to anyone else; I was planning to return the silver."

Seeing they were exposed, those few people quickly turned and ran.

But they were soon apprehended, although one slim tall man managed to escape.

Soon, government officials arrived and took the captured people away, accompanied by Gu Qingheng.

And so, the incident came to an end.

But it served as an advertisement for Fuji Herbal Liquor, instantly leading to a complete sell-out at the liquor store.

"Ruxin." Hao Jian looked eagerly at Yang Ruxin.

Yang Ruxin raised her hand and pointed at him.

"Alright, alright, limited release." Hao Jian sighed; how could one watch money yet not earn it?
