"Ahem - give me some water!"

The man was very agitated. Seeing that no one paid any attention to him, he stuck his fingers into his throat and dug hard. Then he began to vomit uncomfortably while lying on the side.

The ground was suddenly covered with filth. The man's mouth was drooling and his eyes were red.

"No, you have to take the antidote. If you don't take the antidote, you will die."

As he spoke, he found a small medicine bottle from his body with trembling hands, then poured all the pills in it into his mouth and swallowed it forcefully.

He had just induced vomiting manually, and now his stomach and intestines habitually twitched as if to spit out the pill he had swallowed. The man subconsciously "vomited", but the desire to survive made him cover his mouth tightly and force himself to swallow the pill.

Song Wanning stopped Yun Che and shook her head at him.

This person is an important clue, and it will be of great use if we keep him alive.

The two of them watched the man suffer the consequences of his own actions. After the man had taken all the pills, she walked over, picked up the medicine bottle that had been casually thrown aside, smelled it, and confirmed that it was the antidote.

"Take the man to the jail and watch him carefully."

The two soldiers behind him heard Yun Che's order and without further ado, they lifted up the man's arms and took him away.

In the military camp, Song Wanning and Yun Che had just walked to the cell of the man who poisoned them when they heard him begging for mercy in a low voice: "General, I was wrongly accused. Please let me go."

Song Wanning sneered: "You wanted to poison the medicine, but we caught you on the spot. You failed to poison it, and you accidentally took it and almost died of the poison. Now you want to quibble, do you think we will believe it?"

The man's eyes rolled around, but his hair was disheveled at the moment, so Song Wanning and Yun Che couldn't see his little movements.

"General, please spare my life. The herbs I put in really can save lives. I studied with the village doctor for a while when I was a child. I felt that Doctor Song's antidote was not effective, so I added some medicinal properties."

I have to say that this person is very eloquent and smart. Even in this situation, he can still come up with excuses.

Song Wanning also wanted to hear how he would explain it, so she deliberately got angry: "How could you, a mere soldier, see the inadequacy of my antidote formula? General, don't listen to his nonsense. The antidote I made can definitely cure the poison of the people completely!"

Yun Che looked at her silently, with a hint of helplessness and doting in his eyes, as if to ask what kind of show this was.

Song Wanning blinked mischievously, signaling him to cooperate with her.

Helplessly, Yun Che had to cooperate with her: "This matter concerns many people in the city. If you have a better detoxification formula, you should tell me as soon as possible. Don't delay."

Seeing that Yun Che believed his words, the man immediately felt hopeful again, so he hurried to the cell fence and knelt there across the fence: “General, I’m not sure yet. Give me some time, I will definitely be able to prepare a better antidote.”

Song Wanning curled her lips. This man had a quick mind, but insufficient ability, and lacked knowledge of medicinal materials, so he could only beg Yun Che to delay for some time. I guess he wanted to send a message to the mastermind behind the scenes to ask someone to rescue him.

Thinking of this, Song Wanning lost her patience: "Then how do you explain that you poisoned the medicine?"

"Poison... Fighting poison with poison is also a method."

"Don't quibble! As a soldier in the camp, you are loyal to the general and the court. It is your duty to protect the people. But you insisted on poisoning the medicine and trying to harm the people. I don't believe that this was your idea alone. Tell me, who is the mastermind behind this?"

Seeing that he had no way to refute his argument, the man simply knelt down and cried on the ground: "General, spare my life, I am really innocent!"

Song Wanning was so angry that she jumped up and down. Why was this guy so stubborn?

Yun Che smiled and said, “He has been in the army for many years and has acquired the ability to deceive people. If you question him like this, he won’t say anything.”

"What should I do?"

Song Wanning was not good at interrogation. Although she had many skills, she was still innocent by nature. She had not seen many dirty and cruel things, so she could not think of other interrogation methods for a while.

But Yun Che knew. He called two soldiers over and moved the man to another place.

Seeing the various torture instruments here, Song Wanning felt a little scared.

"I didn't expect there was such a place in the military camp." She walked forward and touched it, and saw that it was covered with rust and there was a lot of blood on it.

Yun Che grabbed her hand and stopped her from touching it: "These things are very dirty, don't hurt yourself."

Then he explained to Song Wanning, "When there are traitors in the army or when enemy soldiers are captured, we will use torture to extract what we want, so we will set up a cell like this."

While the two were talking, the man had already been tied to a cross-shaped wooden frame.

"You are from the military camp, so you naturally know where this place is. You'd better tell the truth as soon as possible before you bleed. Otherwise..."

After saying this, Yun Che signaled his subordinate, who then took out an iron whip. The iron whip was covered with barbs and looked particularly scary.

Song Wanning couldn't bear to see such a bloody scene, so she took two steps back and came behind Yun Che, grabbing his sleeve with her hand.

Yun Che patted the back of her hand soothingly, signaling her not to be nervous or afraid.

"General, I really have nothing to say. I have already told you all the truth that needs to be told!"

Yun Che ignored him and signaled to start the torture.

After just two lashes, the man's chest was already covered in flesh and blood.

"what!"

Screams continued, first very loud, then gradually weakened, probably because the person no longer had the strength to scream.

"General, please spare my life. General, please spare my life. I will tell you everything."

Seeing that he was about to be tortured again, the man could not bear it anymore and told out all the truth.

"Yes, the barbarians sent me to poison you!"

As he listened to him, Yun Che’s expression became even more gloomy.

It turned out that the barbarians had a purpose in mind. They poisoned and persecuted the people in the city so that Yun Che would have to focus on dealing with the affairs in the city. Then they would take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack and catch Yun Che off guard.

But they didn't expect that Song Wanning would actually give a way to detoxify. Seeing that their plan failed, they sent out spies who had been planted in the military camp to create chaos.

This is the scene of poisoning.

"I have said everything I should say. General, please do not break your promise and spare my life."

Yun Che sneered: "How ridiculous! When did I ever say I would let you go?"

The traitor was stunned, thinking back to what he had just said. Yun Che had indeed not said anything about letting him go. It was just that Yun Che had given him many hints during the execution, which made him mistakenly believe that as long as he told the truth, Yun Che would let him go.
