"Xiao Zhang is indeed someone that the old man takes special care of. He lost his relatives at an early age and was left alone and helpless. The old man felt sorry for him and took him in. He let him do some odd jobs at home and also gave him a place to live."

Chen Ming was silent for a moment, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

He didn't expect that behind this seemingly cold-blooded family, there was such a warm side.

People who seem to be majestic and inviolable actually have their own tenderness and care.

“Of course, Xiao Zhang is indeed the bloodline of the family, and he is wholeheartedly working for the old man. However, these flowers were originally intended to deal with the organization, but they didn’t expect that it was the old man who was poisoned.”

The butler didn't know what to say, he didn't expect such an accident.

After hearing this, a hint of astonishment flashed across Chen Ming's eyes, and then turned into deep regret.

"How could the old man be poisoned?" Chen Ming's voice trembled, he couldn't accept this fact.

The butler sighed and said slowly: "The old man has been secretly investigating this mysterious organization, trying to find their weaknesses so that he can destroy them in one fell swoop. However, he didn't expect that this organization was so cunning. They discovered the old man's actions and secretly killed him."

Originally, these things should not be told to him, but now that people are involved, we must find the answers.

In particular, the appearance of Chen Ming has disrupted all plans. Presumably, the mysterious person in the organization has also discovered his appearance.

"The old man's health is not as good as before. I hope you can find a way to detoxify him."

The housekeeper sighed. She placed all her hopes on Chen Ming, hoping that Chen Ming could help the old man turn the tide.

At this time, when Chen Ming sighed, he also knew that this matter was not easy, and he also had some insights into this kind of toxin.

"However, this poison is extremely rare and the antidote is extremely difficult."

Chen Ming clenched his fists, his eyes gleaming with determination.

He knew very well that he had to find a way to detoxify as soon as possible to save the old man's life.

"Butler, what is this poison? Although I have seen some relevant answers in books before, I always feel that it is not that simple. Maybe there are some things you have not told me the truth."

He always wanted to know the truth, especially after discovering so many corpses in the deep pit under the flower, he knew that the butler had been testing him.

However, the entire family was able to gain a foothold at the beginning because they did something bad, and such things would be condemned by others once they were exposed to the public.

He remembered that the auction house also remembered everything Chen Ming had done to help them, so the butler could only tell the truth at this time.

The butler pondered for a moment and said slowly: "This poison is called 'Netherworld Powder', and it is an extremely rare poison. Its antidote is also very precious and can only be found in that auction house."

This immediately surprised Chen Ming. He didn't expect that he would actually go to this auction.

"In fact, this kind of poison was not easy to obtain at the beginning. Moreover, it is a double-flowered flower. Only when two flowers bloom, the other one is the antidote. But this time, only one flower bloomed and it is poisonous."

When Chen Ming heard this, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

He only knew how powerful this poison was, but he didn't expect its antidote to be so rare.

This means that he not only has to face the pursuit of the mysterious organization, but also has to compete for the extremely rare antidote at the auction.

The butler looked at him, with a complicated light in his eyes.

He knew that Chen Ming's next journey would be full of hardships and dangers, but he also believed that he would be able to complete this task and find the real antidote.

"I will do my best to help you, but you have to be careful. That auction house is full of mixed people and various forces. Moreover, that mysterious organization will definitely send people to snatch the antidote."

Chen Ming nodded, a determined look on his face.

He knew that he had to act with caution, otherwise if he failed, not only would his life be in danger, but the old man would also die.

After all, this time he is not going alone to investigate the truth, he also has to bring Xi Muer with him, and now the housekeeper will definitely transfer the old man, so the next danger is on his side.

He took a deep breath and said, "I will be careful, housekeeper, don't worry."

The butler looked at him, a gleam of relief in his eyes.

He knew that Chen Ming was a trustworthy person and he would do his best to complete the task.

Ever since a deep pit was dug here and all the bodies were exposed, a group of people appeared around the villa.

Wearing a black suit and sunglasses, he looks mysterious and cool.

These people seemed to be sent by a mysterious organization, but they were very silent and there was no way to track them.

Chen Ming knew clearly that these people were here to monitor him and to ensure that the antidote for "Netherworld Powder" would not fall into his hands.

However, he did not show any panic, but just stood quietly in front of the window, gazing deeply into the distance.

He knew that he couldn't just sit there and wait for death, he had to take the initiative.

He took a deep breath and turned to look at the butler with a nervous look in his eyes.

"Butler, I need to prepare some things in order to deal with the next situation."

The butler nodded. He knew that Chen Ming was a wise and courageous man.

He believed that Chen Ming would be able to find a way to detoxify the old man.

So he ordered his servants to prepare everything Chen Ming needed.

Chen Ming looked at the items in front of him and already had a plan in mind.

He first took out a map and carefully studied the location of the auction house and its surroundings.

Then, he took out some special potions, which he had made during his usual research on poisons, in case of emergency.

He knew that this time when he went to the auction house, he would not only have to face the pursuit of the mysterious organization, but also have to deal with various forces within the auction house.

Therefore, he must be fully prepared to ensure that he can successfully find the antidote and return safely.

During the preparation process, Chen Ming did not forget to notify Xi Muer.

He knew that it was very dangerous for Xi Muer to stay here alone, and she would only be safe if she left with him.

So he decided to have a good discussion with Xi Muer during dinner. In order to dispel everyone's doubts and to ensure that everything went smoothly, Chen Ming arranged for the housekeeper to prepare a sumptuous dinner.

When the two came to the dining table and looked at the dazzling array of food on the table, Xi Muer was a little surprised.

“Is this all for me?”
