"I doubt this, but under this situation, I have to believe her." Jiang Xuan said, "Chen Changli, if it were you, I think you would agree to it."

Chen Changli heard the deep meaning in his words, pondered for a moment and nodded: "I will indeed agree, after all, this opportunity is rare."

Hearing this, Wan Shufang felt a little uneasy.

She held Chen Changli tightly with her hands, her tone anxious and worried, "Yi Shu will never give us a chance. She will only squeeze our bones and marrow. So I think that although Chang Xuewei's matter can temporarily appease her, it will not let her really leave a way for us to survive."

"If we want to stay alive, we still have to find a way ourselves. By the way, the matter of opium is also blatantly laid out in front of us. The doctors who took opium seem to want to become famous, but if you think about it carefully, what they did was not condoned by Yi Shu and others."

"I suspect that the appearance of those doctors was also a test from them. Therefore, I guess that many people in this villa are taking opium. Cao Yunqi's precautions against opium are false."

When Wan Shufang said this, she thought about how Yi Shu was brought out by Cao Yunqi, and it was obvious that she had discussed with Cao Yunqi about bringing the couple to the so-called medicine pond.

"Ofurong is very important to them, but what they meant was that Ofurong was accidentally created during the research on Phoenix Gu."

Wan Shufang paused for a moment when she said this, and then looked at Chen Changli with a worried look on her face.

"So I think there is a place in this villa where Phoenix Gu is studied, and this may be the reason why Yi Shu would be so cruel to you."

After hearing this, Chen Changli suddenly realized: "You mean they only want to find a way to remove the Phoenix Gu, and they are not really scared by what happened yesterday, and they took my words to heart."

Wan Shufang nodded quickly: "I do have this idea, but what are the details? We can't jump to conclusions, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

She actually had a lot of ideas, but the reason she didn't say them out loud at this moment was because Jiang Xuan came as a lobbyist for Yi Shu and others.

Jiang Xuan did this clearly to distance himself from them and use them to gain the trust of Yi Shu and others.

No matter how willing she was to ask Jiang Xuan for help, she still had to be on guard against him.

"That's indeed the case." Chen Changli's thoughts turned and he had a plan in mind.

He immediately helped Wan Shufang stand up, looked at Jiang Xuan calmly and said, "No matter what deal you made with Yi Shu, my husband and I are willing to join you in the game."

"Don't say such scary things." Jiang Xuan hugged his arms and shivered a few times, then walked out, "Since you and your wife have made up your mind, then hurry up and follow me."

"The poison in this water dungeon is almost turning into substance. I still want to stay alive, so I can't stay here any longer."

He ran very fast as if there was a flood or a beast behind him.

Seeing this, Chen Changli didn't say much. He just hugged Wan Shufang in his arms with great force, and then followed Jiang Xuan with big strides.

"Your hand is injured. If you hold me like this, it will hurt. Put me down and let me walk by myself."

Wan Shufang was held in Chen Changli's arms, her heart in her throat.

Chen Changli said calmly: "You have treated the injury, it is not serious."

Wan Shufang reached out and pushed his chest, her voice choking with sobs: "You scratched your wrist, and if you use more force now, the wound might be torn."

The wrist is full of tendons. If the wound is torn...

Chen Changli interrupted her thoughts and said, "Shufang, I know what you are worried about, but I know my limits. Don't worry. Besides, we will be safe after we get out of the water dungeon."

Upon hearing this, Wan Shufang got the words stuck in her throat and couldn't utter them for a long time. She could only remain silent.

After three cups of tea, the three of them walked out of the water dungeon. Cao Yunqi, who was dressed in a blue robe, saw them coming out and hurried forward, saying with a smile: "You have suffered a lot."

When Wan Shufang heard these caring words, she felt goosebumps all over her body.

She followed Chen Changli's gentle movements and stepped on the solid ground, looking at Cao Yunqi subtly.

Meeting his meaningful gaze, Wan Shufang's eyes darkened, but she said nothing and just leaned against Chen Changli tightly.

"Brother Cao, why are you here too? Is the elder's condition getting worse? Then we can't linger here, we have to go see her as soon as possible."

When Jiang Xuan saw Cao Yunqi, his heart skipped a beat, but his face showed worry about Chang Xuewei.

"That's exactly what I meant. Please follow me." Cao Yunqi said nothing more, turned around and led the way.

Chen Changli thought Cao Yunqi would say some nonsense and then warn the couple, but he didn't expect him to be so anxious, as if Chang Xuewei was really about to die.

"Let's catch up with him." Jiang Xuan urged and quickly chased after him.

Wan Shufang stared at his back for a while, then turned to Chen Changli and said, "This Cao Yunqi cares a lot about Chang Xuewei. I think if there is anything in the future, I can find a way to negotiate with him."

She deliberately lowered her voice so that no one could hear it except Chen Changli.

Chen Changli was silent for a moment and nodded: "I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I will act according to the circumstances."

Wan Shufang felt a little relieved when she heard him say that, but she didn't show it on her face. She just pulled Chen Changli forward.

Along the way, she even paid special attention to observe her surroundings to make sure that no one was spying on her. Instead of feeling relaxed, her mood became even heavier.

"Jiang Xuan, why are you so slow?" Yi Shu left the room where Jiang Xuan was locked up and came to Chang Xuewei.

She stayed by Chang Xuewei's side for a long time before Wan Shufang and others arrived, and her mood suddenly became very irritable.

She glanced at Jiang Xuan unhappily, then turned her gaze to Wan Shufang.

I don't know what she was thinking about, she snorted coldly, her face showing disgust: "If it weren't for the Phoenix Gu, I would never allow you and your wife to appear in front of me again, so you and your wife should be grateful to the Phoenix Gu."

Wan Shufang lowered her eyes, hiding the dark light in her eyes, and nodded silently, "The Phoenix Gu is indeed a divine object. My husband and I relied on it to not only avoid being poisoned in the water prison, but also figured out some things."

Hearing her hint, as if she was mocking him, Yi Shu looked her up and down, walked slowly to her, and said with a look as sharp as a knife: "The Phoenix Gu is in Chen Changli's body, and he will be the only one who will be fine. You are not hurt at all. It seems that the Phoenix Gu has produced incredible changes in Chen Changli's body."

She deliberately dragged out the last syllable, as if to intimidate Wan Shufang and make her tell her what Chen Changli did with the Phoenix Gu, so that she could also be safe.

"There have indeed been big changes. Unfortunately, you are not proficient in medicine, so you naturally cannot figure out what is going on." Wan Shufang heard her deep meaning and deliberately changed her expression.

Yi Shu's eyes were filled with a bit of coldness: "The elders are in a coma, it's obviously you and Jiang Xuan who are causing trouble."

Wan Shufang couldn't help but be surprised: "Are you sure about this? Then why did you let Jiang Xuan go find my husband and me? You can't be trying to play a trick on us again."
