Chapter 455
After struggling for half an hour, more than a hundred people finally drank the antidote.
Although his limbs were weak and his face was pale, at least his life was not in danger.
After finishing her work, Concubine Cao Xuan collapsed on the ground from exhaustion.
Lu Chen also breathed a long sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he had a wide variety of drugs, otherwise he would not be able to take care of so many people who were poisoned.
"Lu Chen, thank you for being here, otherwise our family would be doomed."
Cao Guan stood up slowly, his face full of gratitude.
The Cao family was just a hair away from being destroyed.
"Uncle Cao, you're welcome. This is what I should do." Lu Chen waved his hand.
"Third uncle, don't you think it's a little strange?"
At this time, Cao Qingshu suddenly said: "Why are we poisoned? Does this guy have an antidote?"
"What do you mean?" Cao Guan frowned.
"Third uncle, the people attending the annual meeting are either descendants of the Cao family or distinguished guests of the family. They all know each other well. Only this kid has an unknown origin!" Cao Qingshu pointed.
"Do you suspect that I poisoned you?" Lu Chen narrowed his eyes.
"Hmph! This time everyone was poisoned. It must be the work of the insider. You can accurately find the source of the poison and detoxify it for everyone. Isn't it worthy of suspicion?" Cao Qingshu looked suspicious.
"Hey! I'm warning you not to talk nonsense! If Lu Chen is a traitor, how can he save you?!" Concubine Cao Xuan shouted in a deep voice.
"You still need to ask? Of course it's to gain our trust!"
Cao Qingshu vowed: "To put it bluntly, from beginning to end, it was a play directed and performed by him. He first poisoned us, and then detoxified us as a savior. I have never used this insidious method before.
Seen it before!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were fixed on Lu Chen.
There is vigilance, suspicion, confusion, and resentment.
If you think about it carefully, what Cao Qingshu said makes sense.
Everyone present has an interest and knows everything about it.
Only Lu Chen is a stranger, so it is inevitable that people will not be suspicious.
"Absurd! How ridiculous!"
Concubine Cao Xuan said angrily: "Cao Qingshu! Lu Chen just saved your life, and you actually want to beat him up. Do you have any humanity?!"
"I just think about everyone and want to find out the culprit as soon as possible!" Cao Qingshu said confidently.
"Okay! You said Lu Chen is a traitor, what evidence do you have?" Concubine Cao Xuan asked.
"Isn't the evidence clear enough?"
Cao Qingshu sneered: "All of us were poisoned just now, but this guy was safe and sound. Do you think, if he hadn't poisoned him, who else could have been?!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole place was in an uproar.
"Yes! We were all poisoned just now, but he was not. There must be something wrong!"
"That's right! I was just wondering why he was fine, but after a long time, he was the one who poisoned me!"
"What a sinister and cunning man. I still thank him all the time! Bah!"
Under Cao Qingshu's instigation, many people began to crusade.
The eyes that Chen Lu looked at each and every time were no longer grateful at all, but instead filled with anger and anger.
People's words are fearful, and three people become tigers.
Unknowingly, a sinful hat had been placed on Lu Chen's head.
"Shut up, everyone!"
Concubine Cao Xuan shouted angrily: "Have you been kicked in the head by a donkey? Lu Chen saved you, and you are just not grateful, but you are still here to retaliate? This is too much!"
"Concubine Xuan, this matter is of great importance. I think this matter should be investigated carefully."
At this time, Cao Jun suddenly said:
"Seconded!"
Cao Biao spoke loudly: "For the safety of the Cao family and everyone's safety, arrest this kid first and question him thoroughly!"
"Catch him!"
"Catch him!"
"..."
The Cao family's children all echoed his words and looked excited.
