578 Someone Must Have Dug It Up
“Big Brother, how about this? I’ll give you the antidote pill. Help me plead with Master to let me return. What do you think?” she suggested.
“Where is the antidote pill?”
Ye Chengzong was still concerned about the antidote pill.
After all, Zhao Wei’an was on his team. He could not let anything happen to him.
If there really was an antidote pill…
He studied Ye Chenglin and decided it would be better to obtain the antidote pill before sending her back to the Spirit Severing Cliff.
“You agreed to plead for mercy for me?” Ye Chenglin’s eyes lit up.
“Give me the antidote pill first.” Ye Chengzong did not reply to her question and only reached out to Ye Chenglin.
“Okay, okay,” Ye Chenglin replied excitedly.
“I knew you all wanted the antidote pill! I hid it somewhere on the way back to the camp. I’ll bring you there to dig it out. Big Brother, come with me.”
With that, she ran in one direction.
They were near where she had hidden the antidote pill and would reach it soon. She was in a hurry to find the antidote pill in exchange for her brother’s agreement to plead for her, not noticing how Ye Chengzong’s eyes had darkened.
It’s just as I expected! She clearly has the antidote pill but deliberately hid it to threaten Master with it!
However, it was not the time to question Ye Chenglin. He had to obtain the antidote pill to save Zhao Wei’an.
“Where’s the antidote pill? Where is my antidote pill?”
After a while, Ye Chengzong found Ye Chenglin kneeling and digging somewhere in the forest.
“I don’t recall burying it that deeply. Why is it gone? Why is it gone?”
She had rushed back to the camp ahead of Yan Jin and pretended to be concerned about her injured brother. However, she was actually afraid that Yan Jin would follow her too closely and cause her to lose her chance to hide the medicinal pill.
Hence, she did not bury it too deeply. She only dug a shallow hole and hid the porcelain bottle inside.
But how could it be missing now?
“How did this happen? I remember it being here. Who dug up my antidote pill?” She was about to go insane. This antidote pill was her only hope of returning to the camp. How could it disappear just like that?
“Alright, stop searching for it.”
How could Ye Chengzong not understand what had happened?
This was definitely a case of the canary hiding behind a mantis stalking the cicada. Someone must have seen Ye Chenglin hide something here and dug it up later, right?
Poor Ye Chenglin! She thought she had hidden it well and wanted to use it to return to the camp.
But she could not return, even if she had the antidote pill.
Now that the antidote pill was gone, Ye Chengzong did not know how to help Zhao Wei’an. He could only hope that their master had thought of a solution.
“Why should I stop searching for it? This is my antidote pill. I have to rely on it to return to the camp. Big Brother, help me search and dig together. It’s definitely here.”
After a series of setbacks, Ye Chenglin was already showing signs of insanity.
Her only hope was gone. How could she let this go? She had to find the antidote pill.
“Someone must have dug it up. Why are you still looking for it?” Ye Chengzong said coldly.
“Who did it?” Ye Chenglin looked up, her eyes bloodthirsty.
“Who dug it up? Who did it? How dare he steal my things? I’ll kill him!”
