Wei Mingzhou didn't want Wan Shufang to misunderstand, so he quickly told Wan Shufang his guess about the strange man, then he closed his mouth and ran forward.

It's because the strange man's situation is related to the Phoenix Gu, and Chen Changli is the mother of the Phoenix Gu. The emperor knows this. If he has other intentions, he will definitely test Chen Changli step by step.

Wan Shufang is not a stupid person, she can figure this out on her own.

Wei Mingzhou's words were just a reminder for her to be mentally prepared so as not to show any strange emotions in front of the emperor.

When Wan Shufang heard that the strange man was infected with the Phoenix Gu, her face turned pale and ugly.

She knew very well how much the emperor cared about Phoenix Gu.

Now that such monsters suddenly appear, although Chen Changli can use these monsters to protect himself, it will also bring greater trouble.

Wan Shufang wanted to help Chen Changli, but she couldn't think of any good way, so she could only feel dissatisfied with the emperor.

It was not until she ran back to the palace and the emperor ordered the imperial guards to block the entire palace and sent people to contact other civil and military officials to ask them to deal with the strange man as soon as possible that Wan Shufang adjusted her mood.

She came to Wei Mingzhou, who was pale and seemed to be gasping for breath, and said calmly, "Doctor Wei, since His Majesty has allowed you to go home, you should stay at home with your family and enjoy the happiness of family life instead of falling into danger again."

Wei Mingzhou understood what danger she was talking about. His face turned even paler, as if all the blood color had faded away in the blink of an eye.

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Wei Mingzhou said earnestly, "I want to do the same, but the situation in Luoyang City doesn't allow it. For the safety of my family, I can only run out and take the risk."

Speaking of the word "adventure", Wei Mingzhou's face immediately showed a bit of melancholy.

"Prince Rong was just outside Luoyang City, watching covetously. I didn't do anything, but I went to find Ye Xuan without thinking. Even if he was willing to help, I would still feel bad."

"So I wanted to help him deal with the weirdos, but I never expected these weirdos to be so powerful."

Speaking of those strange people, Wei Mingzhou still has lingering fears.

He worked with poison masters in the underground palace to research a lot of poisons, and also used poisons on many people.

He had seen the miserable end of tortured people, but he had never seen anything like this monster.

What's more, these weirdos are contagious. He is very worried that if he lets them go unchecked, or if he doesn't find an antidote quickly, these weirdos will spread all over the world, and by then there will be no living people left in this world.

As his thoughts turned, Wei Mingzhou simply told Wan Shufang all his concerns, emphasized the importance of Chen Changli, and then talked about the emperor's strange thoughts.

"In his majesty's heart, the status of Phoenix Gu is indeed extraordinary. He also wanted to use Chen Changli to refine a new Phoenix Gu."

"Ye Xuan and I tried our best to persuade him, but he didn't give up the idea. Now that he is facing the terrifying monster, even if he has some thoughts, he will probably try to solve the problem of the monster first, so Chen Changli will be safe in the short term."

"Wan Shufang, I hope that while Chen Changli is safe, you can suppress your dissatisfaction with His Majesty and cooperate with me to research an antidote."

When Wei Mingzhou said the last sentence, he looked at Wan Shufang with burning eyes, as if he expected her to give him the response he wanted.

Wan Shufang felt uncomfortable as she was stared at by his burning eyes.

Although she was very unhappy that the emperor was still thinking about Chen Changli, Wei Mingzhou had already said so much, so how could she refuse?

She couldn't refuse either, after all, the Phoenix Gu was just a firecracker and would explode if she wasn't careful.

She must always keep an eye on Chen Changli and figure out the emperor's change of mind, otherwise Chen Changli will be in danger.

"I am willing to cooperate with you in researching the antidote." When Wan Shufang was extremely conflicted, Chen Changli directly made his promise.

Wei Mingzhou stared at Chen Changli and saw that he looked calm, as if he had already guessed what the emperor would do. He felt inexplicably uneasy.

He wanted to ask something to put Chen Changli at peace, but the words were rolling in his throat and he didn't know how to say them.

After sitting for a long time, Wei Mingzhou frowned and lowered his eyes, as if thinking about something.

After a few breaths, Wei Mingzhou's brows relaxed and he said cheerfully, "Let's just pretend that we are still in the underground palace. This way, we can be more vigilant and guard against some unnecessary plots."

His words had another deeper meaning. Wan Shufang and Chen Changli looked at each other and then smiled.

Wei Mingzhou was extremely dissatisfied with the emperor and was on guard against him, so he reminded the couple.

Logically speaking, as a royal physician who was once valued by the emperor, Wei Mingzhou only needed to hide a few things and then submit to the emperor.

No matter how dissatisfied the emperor was with him, he would still give him some trust.

Wei Mingzhou himself was also aware of this, yet he refused, which shows how much he hated evil.

Wan Shufang admired such a person very much and was willing to trust him wholeheartedly, so when it came to some things, she was happy to express her doubts and let Wei Mingzhou answer them for her.

So in the following time, Wan Shufang discussed the matter of the monster with Wei Mingzhou. Before long, they both agreed that the monster was indeed related to the Phoenix Gu, and they must hurry up to study the monster and cannot delay any longer.

Otherwise, the rebels who got the Phoenix Gu would become more aggressive and put them in a passive position, or even be swallowed up by the monsters without them noticing anything.

"It just so happens that Ye Xuan caught a weirdo and gave it to Your Majesty. Let's go find that weirdo now."

As soon as Wei Mingzhou finished speaking, Wan Shufang and Chen Changli thought of the emperor's fright and looked at each other.

I don’t know if the emperor has recovered yet. If he hasn’t, will it irritate him if they just go to find that weirdo?

The couple thought so in their hearts, but did not refuse Wei Mingzhou. They simply followed him to find the so-called weirdo. After a while, they were frightened by the weirdo's appearance.

"Is this the weirdo you were talking about? Why does he look like a zombie?" Wan Shufang took a deep breath and looked at Wei Mingzhou in disbelief.

Is Phoenix Gu so powerful? Or did Wei Mingzhou guess wrong?

It's too magical that a poisonous insect can turn a person into this.

Wan Shufang had only one thought, that is, her medical theories were about to be shattered by this Phoenix Gu.

"It does look like a zombie. I suspect Chang Xuewei and the others have already thoroughly studied the Phoenix Gu and decided to use it to control living people to achieve their ulterior motives."

"As for why they wanted to target Chen Changli in the end and let the Phoenix Gu be born in his body, I think it must be because Chen Changli's body is stronger than that of an ordinary person, so he can withstand the backlash brought by the Phoenix Gu."

After a pause, Wei Mingzhou thought for a moment and then said softly, "But who has the Phoenix Gu? Could it be that these weirdos were deliberately arranged by them? I can't guess, but I know that their purpose is to rebel, and the appearance of these weirdos is probably their first step."
