Whoosh~~

The wind howled on White Stone Mountain.

The sun was good today, bringing a touch of warmth to the winter cold.

Lin Zheyu, as usual, practiced martial arts for two and a half hours in the morning, not training too long.

Moderate exercise can quickly restore the body's Essence, Qi, and Spirit to the peak, while over-exercising can affect the recovery of Essence, Qi, and Spirit.

In the afternoon, he spent most of his time in the small courtyard, studying the Poison Canon.

Various such poisons were placed on the table.

Lin Zheyu studied the different poisons' smells, colors, symptoms after poisoning, and detoxification methods according to the Poison Canon.

Many poisons have specific smells and colors.

As long as you can identify it as early as possible when the opponent uses poison, then hold your breath to prevent inhaling too much toxin, it won't be a big issue.

Poison is also classified by dosage.

Even if it's extremely poisonous, as long as too much poison powder isn't inhaled, with Lin Zheyu's body in the Qi Blood Realm, it's not a big problem; just see a doctor afterwards.

However, some rare poisons are colorless and tasteless, making them impossible to identify.

Only after being poisoned and the body reacts, one can use some medication to relieve the poison according to the symptoms.

"The smell of Purple Begonia is so faint that if not carefully identified, it's hard to pick up on, yet Mr. Chen said it's easily detectable."

Lin Zheyu muttered to himself.

The scent of the Purple Begonia powder was so faint, he had to bring it under his nose and carefully distinguish it to detect it.

Mr. Chen Peijun had said before, this kind of paralyzing drug takes effect slowly, is easy to detect, and not very useful.

How is this easy to detect!

"The time immersed in poisons is still short; it takes a lot of time to practice sensitivity to the poison's smell."

Lin Zheyu said to himself.

Back then, Ma Wangcheng could distinguish the almost undetectable fragrance of Red Mountain Fragrance from a long distance, which was astounding.

After completing his daily Poison Canon study plan, Lin Zheyu took out the jade bottle containing corpse poison.

In the jade bottle, there was only a small amount of corpse poison. Although the scorched part looked quite large, not much corpse poison was obtained from it.

This small amount was not enough to refine into a poison.

"If only every poison had a smell as pungent as corpse poison, that would be great."

As soon as Lin Zheyu opened the jade bottle, he smelled an unpleasant, pungent smell.

Corpse poison alone is also extremely toxic; it causes muscles to stiffen and the skin to ulcerate.

If the toxin reaches the brain, it can make a person lose their mind, becoming extremely violent, like a monster.

However, it takes a large amount of corpse poison to make a person lose their mind and become violent, so the cost-effectiveness is too low.

Normally, no one would use it alone, as the scent is too obvious.

Knock knock

Soon, there was a knock on the door.

Lin Zheyu put away the Poison Canon and the poisons on the table before going to open the door.

"Why did you come here?"

Seeing who it was, Lin Zheyu was a bit surprised; it was Xie Jiang.

"Haha, aren't you curious about ghosts? Coincidentally, there was a haunting in a nearby mine yesterday."

"As soon as I heard the news, I came to tell you immediately, am I a good friend or what!!" Xie Jiang said with a smile.

"Is there such a thing?"

"Let's go, have a look."

Lin Zheyu was intrigued; he had been in this world for several months and had yet to encounter a ghost.

"Hongcheng, I have to go out for a bit, I'll be back soon; take care of things here and keep an eye out."

Lin Zheyu left the courtyard, summoned an honest Bone Forging Realm expert, and instructed.

"Yes, sir." Hongcheng replied.

After giving instructions at work, Lin Zheyu followed Xie Jiang towards the north of White Stone Mountain.

"Anyone dead?" Lin Zheyu asked.

"No, just some miners scared to sickness, they've already called a spirit medium for treatment and to perform a ghost banishing ritual." Xie Jiang said.

"Ghost banishing ritual?"

"Are the spirit mediums in Songyi City capable of that? Aren't they just charlatans pretending to be mysterious?" Lin Zheyu asked in confusion.

While in Songyi City, he had specifically visited several spirit mediums; they were all just performing tricks.

"We don't believe it, but ordinary folks do!"

"If you tell them that ghosts can be dispelled with fire, and if fire doesn't work, use explosives, they'll just accuse you of disrespecting the spirits."

"Only by inviting spirit mediums to perform rituals will they be willing to continue working the mine shafts." Xie Jiang said.

Lin Zheyu: "..."

So logical.

Arriving at the mine, it was surrounded by members of the Feihong Gang.

A spirit medium, around sixty, was mumbling mystically in the corner, banishing ghosts.

"Mr. Lin, I knew you'd be interested."

Jia Yanrong was also there watching the excitement and laughed when he saw Lin Zheyu.

"Look, it's that mine, several people have found deceased colleagues inside."

"Later they're going to take firewood inside and burn it for seven consecutive days, then the ghost won't appear again." Xie Jiang pointed to the mine.

Since it was in a mine, using explosives would cause a collapse, so they had to resort to burning with fire.

Usually, after a few days of burning, there's no more problem.

"Where's the ghost?" Lin Zheyu asked.

"In broad daylight, how would it come out? That thing only appears at night." Xie Jiang said matter-of-factly.

"You called me over when the ghost can't even be seen." Lin Zheyu said speechlessly.

"I thought it's been a while since we buddies had a drink together, so I called you to take a look and have a few drinks." Xie Jiang laughed.
