Chapter 416 - 414: Interruption on the Road
The two of them stayed in the grid space for a full ten minutes, while Chen Tianlong and Zhang Ju were tense outside for the same ten minutes. This was the final crucial step; if afterward, a check of their bodies showed no difference from before, it would be considered a failure.
A few more minutes passed, and the two finally came out.
But to their surprise, the two seemed like different people after they came out, not only full of energy but also with a rosy complexion.
Although their cheeks and bodies were covered in a layer of dark secretion, Chen Tianlong was very happy, which undoubtedly meant the medicine was effective.
"Master, it seems we succeeded."
From the sole observation of the Drug Testers’ performance, Chen Tianlong knew the pill had succeeded.
"Haha... that’s great, we’ve finally succeeded."
Zhang Ju was clearly very excited. As a master-level doctor, he could easily see the difference in the Drug Testers’ condition before and after taking the medicine. The improved complexion and the residue excreted through sweat were enough to prove the Bone Marrow Cleansing was successful.
But to what extent the cleansing went, he had to send the blood samples from before and after to Li Sheng for hospital verification. After all, the manor did not have such high-tech equipment, but there were people in the hospital who could make the verification process quite simple.
After everything was finished, Li Sheng took the blood samples before and after to the hospital for testing, waiting for the report the next day.
However, even without testing, the effect was obvious.
Judging by appearances alone, the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill had basically completed its mission. As for how effective it was, he was no longer concerned.
After everything was done, Chen Tianlong impatiently asked, "Master, can you go back with me tomorrow? My friend can’t hold on much longer."
"Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, once we have the report tomorrow, after I send a fax, once we get their reply, I will be free."
As Zhang Ju said this, his eyes flickered a bit.
Chen Tianlong noticed something suspicious, took a deep breath, and said, "Master, to tell the truth, how much longer until you can leave here."
"At least a week!"
Zhang Ju said with some helplessness.
"A week? Hiss..."
Chen Tianlong took a deep breath. If that’s the case, Lin Wushuang would definitely be doomed. Gritting his teeth, Chen Tianlong braced himself and said, "Master... please help me, no matter what, I have to take you back with me within these two days."
"This..."
Zhang Ju was also quite troubled; he wanted to help. After all, Chen Tianlong was now his disciple, and a disciple asking a master for help is justified.
But if they left before the review was approved, the men laying in ambush here wouldn’t let them go.
After all, these people only listened to headquarters’ orders. As long as the company hadn’t given orders, they would act as usual, making it unlikely for them to escape from this manor.
"Master, just speak your mind; there’s always a way, just like with the issue of the pill, hasn’t it been solved now?"
Chen Tianlong was indeed a bit frustrated. He hadn’t anticipated these problems, one after another.
Originally, he thought that as long as the pill was successfully developed, Divine Doctor Zhang could leave smoothly with him, only to discover there were still so many difficulties.
"Chen Tianlong, it’s not that I won’t help you, but without the drug verification and audit passed by headquarters, they won’t give orders to the informants here, so leaving now is the same as before, we’d still be hunted down!" Zhang Ju explained.
"....."
Chen Tianlong was speechless. If he had known, he wouldn’t have bothered with the pill and just grabbed Zhang Ju and rushed out. But doing so would complicate matters, and Zhang Ju might not be willing to help.
The only difference was that this time, as long as Zhang Ju was taken out, he would do his best to help and cure Lin Wushuang.
Suddenly, an idea sparked in Chen Tianlong’s mind. He hurriedly called Zhang Yufei over, and the three of them huddled together for a discussion, reaching a consensus...
Early the next morning, Butler Li Sheng handed over the blood test report to Zhang Ju. After scrutinizing it for a while, Zhang Ju showed a look of surprise on his face.
This Bone Marrow Cleansing Pill is certainly a great thing, capable of such efficacy! Although it didn’t achieve a hundred percent cleansing, it had surpassed his expectations.
It even exceeded their best anticipated effect by several times.
After confirming the pill’s success, Zhang Ju set his mind on going out with Chen Tianlong.
Around nine in the morning, a trolley carrying medicinal materials was pushed out by two servants. In the trolley was a large wooden box, of course filled with many mountain herbs.
This time, Chen Tianlong used the excuse of coming to purchase mountain herbs in bulk from the manor. Now he was leaving with Zhang Yufei, and behind them was someone, that person being Butler Li Sheng.
Only, Li Sheng’s expression today seemed different.
The three of them walked straight ahead when suddenly countless black shadows appeared from all directions. Chen Tianlong quickly surveyed the surroundings and found at least fifteen people, each with a sword at their waist.
"Who are you, daring to cause trouble in my manor?"
Li Sheng’s voice sounded hoarse, like someone with a cold.
"You can leave, but the trolley must stay!" The leading man in black removed his mask, clearly not worried about being seen.
At this moment, what Chen Tianlong saw was a young man, about his age, around twenty-something, with an oval face and slightly long hair. At first glance, Chen Tianlong thought he was a young Nicholas Tse.
This man was a high-level talent from the mysterious multinational group, Zhao Zhuo, the assistant to the president.
"What do you mean? Are you saying we can’t leave even after buying the herbs? Aren’t you the Manor Master? What right do you have to stop me?" Chen Tianlong coldly smiled, knowing these were the informants Zhang Ju mentioned.
"Humph, what right? Just by my having enough people behind me, is that enough?" Zhao Zhuo smiled playfully, his attitude extremely arrogant.
"Oh? So you’re here to fight. Well, this young lady is always ready!" Zhang Yufei, being a policewoman, was quite interested in dealing with such bullies.
"Oh wow, there’s even a young chick here, quite pretty, just a bit fierce."
Seeing a beauty, Zhao Zhuo’s eyes lit up, examining Zhang Yufei, and finding her figure pleasing, he licked his lips, showing a wolfish look.
Zhang Yufei was disgusted. This kind of man only knew how to show off, but there was always a stench of excrement about him.
"Oh? Did you eat poop today? Your mouth smells so bad!"
Zhang Yufei’s retort was quite sharp. She fanned her hand in front of her nose while facing Zhao Zhuo directly.
