Strange And Troubled Times: Eternal Life Begins From Marrying A Wife

Chapter 21: Poisonous Food and Drink

"After returning, go to the Sutra Pavilion and choose a martial arts technique!"

"Then buy a weapon!"

Qin Feng slowly closed his eyes.

"Wake up, wake up!"

The next morning, Xiao Ma woke Qin Feng up.

"Brother Ma, what happened?"

Qin Feng quickly stood up.

"Let's go, some servants died in the camp, accompany Manager Liu to investigate!"

After Xiao Ma finished speaking, he walked towards the next guard.

Shortly after, Xiao Ma, Qin Feng, and more than ten guards followed behind Liu Cheng and walked towards a room.

Outside the room, there were many servants gathered.

"Isn't this the room Liu Cheng entered yesterday?"

Qin Feng immediately recognized it as the room Liu Cheng entered yesterday.

"Why are they gathered here?"

"Why aren't you going to gather herbs?"

Liu Cheng shouted loudly.

As soon as Liu Cheng finished speaking, the servants at the door all headed towards Soft Wind Mountain.

"Take all these bodies and burn them outside the camp!"

Liu Cheng didn't even look at the corpses on the ground.

"Yes, sir!"

Qin Feng and the many guards entered the room and carried out the bodies of the servants.

"Hmm, why do these people have a small hole on their thighs?"

Qin Feng looked at the servants' thighs in shock.

There was a small hole on their thighs.

It seemed to be exactly the same as the black ball in Liu Cheng's hand.

Qin Feng seemed to understand something.

However, Qin Feng didn't make a fuss. Instead, he carried the bodies of the servants and walked outside.

After about ten minutes, Qin Feng, Xiao Ma, and the many guards returned to the camp.

Liu Cheng was standing outside the warehouse, smiling.

"You've all worked hard. I've prepared food and drinks!"

Liu Cheng pointed to the warehouse and said.

"Thank you, Manager Liu!"

"Manager Liu is generous!"

"Hahaha, we can have a good drink again!"

"..."

The guards were all very happy.

They had only helped Liu Cheng deal with a few bodies.

But Liu Cheng brought out food and drinks to treat them.

Qin Feng, Xiao Ma, and the many guards all sat in the warehouse, eating meat and drinking.

*Ding*

Half an hour later, a system notification sound suddenly came.

Qin Feng was slightly stunned and quickly checked his attributes.

[Name: Qin Feng]

[Age: 16]

[Lifespan: 67]

[Entries: Heaven Rewards the Diligent, Teacherless Master]

[Spells: None]

[Martial Arts: Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique]

[Items: None]

[Wives and Concubines: Hu Qingya]

[Entry Points: 0]

"Lifespan decreased by one year?"

Qin Feng's face turned ugly.

He never expected that his lifespan, which was perfectly fine, would actually decrease by one year.

"Could it be because of this food and drink?"

Qin Feng quickly thought of the food and drink that Liu Cheng treated them with.

It was only after eating this food and drink that Qin Feng received the system notification sound.

In other words, it was after eating this food and drink that Qin Feng's lifespan decreased by one year.

"Liu Cheng is so vicious!"

Qin Feng's gaze turned towards Liu Cheng above.

Only Liu Cheng could easily poison the food and drink like this.

"Guard Qin, why aren't you eating? Could it be that this meat doesn't suit your taste?"

Liu Cheng smiled and looked at Qin Feng.

"Reporting to Manager Liu, I need to use the restroom urgently!"

Qin Feng stood up and said.

Although Qin Feng said this, he had cursed Liu Cheng dozens of times in his heart.

These food and drinks contained a deadly poison.

Just eating a portion will reduce your lifespan.

He dare not eat too much of such food.

"Go!"

Liu Cheng didn't suspect anything, he just waved his hand.

"Thank you, Manager Liu!"

Qin Feng quickly walked outside.

"Hoo!"

"Why did Liu Cheng poison it?"

"I don't know if he poisoned only me, or if all the guards were poisoned!"

Qin Feng pondered as he walked towards the corner.

"Could it be that he wants to help Black Wind Village attack Eternal Peace Medicine Manor?"

Qin Feng shook his head slightly.

Eternal Peace Medicine Manor is an Apex Level force within Eternal Peace County.

Although Black Wind Village has a notorious reputation, it is simply impossible for them to be a match for Eternal Peace Medicine Manor.

"Never mind, let's practice the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique first!"

Qin Feng went to the corner and began practicing the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique.

Once, twice!

In the blink of an eye, Qin Feng had been practicing in the corner for over three hours.

[Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique: Great Accomplishment: 1202/2000, Qi and blood initial completion, sensing Anomaly]

"Fourteen points of proficiency!"

Qin Feng wiped his sweat while checking and walked towards the warehouse.

"Qin Feng, you came at the right time. Tomorrow, you and Lao Li and Fan Biao will go on patrol to Soft Wind Mountain!"

Just as Qin Feng walked in, Jiang Yong found him.

"Patrol to Soft Wind Mountain!"

Qin Feng's eyes immediately lit up.

This patrol mission would be with the menial workers, not staying in the camp.

This way, he wouldn't have to eat the food and drink prepared by Liu Cheng, and he wouldn't have to reduce his lifespan.

Early the next day.

Lao Li led Qin Feng and Fan Biao towards Soft Wind Mountain.

On the way, Fan Biao kept muttering about not being able to eat the food and drink from Liu Cheng.

Hearing Fan Biao's muttering, Qin Feng's eyes immediately lit up.

If he helped Fan Biao with the mountain patrol, he wouldn't have to eat the food and drink prepared by Liu Cheng.

And he wouldn't have to reduce his lifespan.

Moreover, this mountain patrol task was very simple, just finding a place and going back in the afternoon.

A few minutes later, Lao Li, Fan Biao, and Qin Feng arrived at an open space.

"Find a place to rest!"

"After three hours, meet here!"

After Lao Li finished speaking, he sat under a big tree and closed his eyes to cultivate his spirit.

Fan Biao quickly walked towards a vacant space to the south.

"Fan Xiong, wait!"

Qin Feng quickly called out to Fan Biao.

"Qin Xiong, what's the matter?"

Fan Biao looked at Qin Feng with a puzzled expression.

"Fan Xiong, I really like Soft Wind Mountain!"

"If you receive a mountain patrol mission in the future, you can ask me for help!"

Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Thank you, Qin Xiong!"

Fan Biao's face was full of joy.

Although the mountain patrol was very easy, just entering Soft Wind Mountain and finding an empty space, it was still not as comfortable as drinking and eating meat in the camp.

Qin Feng also found an empty space where no one was around and started practicing the Ferocious Tiger Fist Technique.

In the evening, Qin Feng, Lao Li, and Fan Biao returned to the camp.

"The wine today was really good!"

"The meat was also delicious!"

"Manager Liu is really great!"

"He treats us with such sumptuous food every day!"

"... "

All the guards were very excited.

They were all praising Manager Liu for the delicious food and drink he provided today.

"It's a good thing we weren't in the camp!"

Qin Feng felt fortunate.

If he hadn't gone on patrol, he would probably have eaten poisoned food and drink again.

At the same time, he also felt sorry for these guards.

They had already been sold out by Liu Cheng, yet they were still grateful to him.

But compared to the relieved Qin Feng, Lao Li and Fan Biao had gloomy expressions on their faces.
