109: Chapter 109 Antidote?
Professor Yang hurriedly stopped the members of the Bodyguard Team, saying:
"Leave the search to us! Right now, your task is of the utmost importance!"
"You must hold down the Bodyguard Team Captain, no matter what, do not let go! Otherwise, if he runs away like Xiao Tang, it won't matter even if we find the antidote!"
After those words were spoken, the members of the Bodyguard Team quieted down.
They then saluted Professor Yang and returned to surround the Bodyguard Team Captain.
Professor Yang kept a few strong members of the Archaeological Team to help, taking only two members with him as he entered the side chamber.
Accompanying them was the team's photographer.
Upon entering the side chamber,
The two corpses on the prayer mats before them were still sitting peacefully in meditation.
Professor Yang motioned to the members beside him to put on gas masks and goatskin gloves, and they began to search the two remains.
But for some reason, despite searching the entire bodies, they still couldn't find the source of the so-called medicinal fragrance.
For a moment, Professor Yang and the archaeologists couldn't help but feel a bit anxious.
They even turned the Taoist robes on the corpses inside out, searching everywhere, but still found nothing.
At that moment,
An extremely angry roar suddenly came from outside.
This roar made everyone's hearts tremble, and their entire bodies shuddered violently.
Clearly, the Bodyguard Team Captain's condition must have flared up, and the Bodyguard Team was now doing their best to subdue him.
Immediately, Professor Yang and the others became even more anxious.
He hurriedly pressed the button on his earpiece and said anxiously:
"It's no use! We've searched the corpses from head to toe, and we can't find the antidote at all!"
At this time, Old Professor Zhou's expression was also incredibly solemn.
If they couldn't find the antidote, and the Bodyguard Team could no longer restrain the captain, leaving them with no choice but to let him escape, things would become very troublesome!
But now, having searched the entire bodies, where exactly was the antidote?
No one knew.
The viewers in the Live Stream Room also became anxious all at once.
In an instant, the comments in the Live Stream Room erupted like a flooding river.
"They've searched both corpses and can't find the antidote at all! Why is that?"
"Where on earth is the antidote? Could it be that it's not inside the Taoist robes?"
"It's useless, they've searched everywhere! They've almost stripped the robes off the corpses, didn't you see?"
"It's over, it's over, what should we do now?"
"If they can't find the antidote, the Captain and Xiao Tang are really... really going to be finished!"
...
The viewers in the Live Stream Room were also filled with gloom and despair at this time.
Having just learned that an antidote might exist on the corpses, they hadn't even been happy for a few minutes before this bad news arrived.
What could be more cruel than knowing an antidote exists but being unable to find it?
Old Professor Zhou also gritted his teeth hard, his face full of solemn worry as he stared at the large screen in the center of the Live Stream Room.
His gaze flickered uncertainly!
Ye Xiao, however, appeared relatively calm at this moment, his eyes fixed on the Live Stream Room.
His gaze was also on the two remains, constantly shifting and searching.
The medicinal fragrance was definitely emanating from the two remains.
The divine medicine must also be on the two of them.
But... where could this divine medicine be hidden?
Ye Xiao's mind raced with thoughts.
But suddenly, as Ye Xiao's gaze swept over the throat of one of the corpses, his eyes froze!
"That's it!"
Ye Xiao stood up abruptly, a look of pleasant surprise appearing on his face.
This sudden movement caused all the experts present to shift their gaze onto Ye Xiao.
Old Professor Zhou also immediately turned to look at Ye Xiao and couldn't help but ask:
"What is it, Xiao Ye? Did you discover something?"
Ye Xiao nodded slightly and replied:
"Tell Professor Yang that the antidote is very likely in the throat of the corpse! Have him take it out!"
Upon hearing this, the solemnity on Old Professor Zhou's face eased considerably, and he hurriedly pressed the button on his earpiece.
He relayed Ye Xiao's words to Professor Yang.
Hearing this, Professor Yang quickly placed two fingers on the corpse's throat. After sensing for a moment, he suddenly said in surprise:
"There's a foreign object in the throat!"
As he spoke, Professor Yang used his fingers to pinch the foreign object and began pushing it upwards.
Then, holding the corpse's jaw and opening its mouth, he pulled a pitch-black object out of the corpse's mouth.
The medicinal fragrance became intense once again.
It instantly filled the entire side chamber!
"Yes! This is it!"
Without another word, he rushed out of the side chamber and arrived at the entrance of the Alchemy Room.
"Professor Yang, did you find the antidote! We're about to lose our hold!"
A voice strained to the limit rang out.
After being poisoned by the black slime, the Bodyguard Team Captain had gained Herculean strength.
They were holding down the Bodyguard Team Captain's limbs in groups of two or three, yet the Bodyguard Team Captain was still able to struggle repeatedly.
Even though the Bodyguard Team members' faces were flushed red from the effort, they still held the Bodyguard Team Captain down firmly, not daring to let go for a moment.
Low, angry roars came from the Bodyguard Team Captain's throat.
The sound didn't seem like something a human could make at all.
"I found the antidote!"
Professor Yang took three steps in two, quickly running to everyone's side.
But then, he stopped.
It was only then that he remembered he didn't know how to use this antidote.
Although this pitch-black thing had a strong medicinal fragrance, he had never seen it before.
So, after hesitating for a moment, Professor Yang chose to ask Old Professor Zhou first.
But before he could speak, Ye Xiao's voice, mixed with the static of the electronic current, reached his ears.
"Just give it to him orally!"
Hearing this voice, Professor Yang felt much more at ease.
Immediately, without any more hesitation, he crouched down beside the Bodyguard Team Captain and said:
"Quick, pry his mouth open!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two members beside him held down the Bodyguard Team Captain's thrashing head and forced his jaw open.
The Bodyguard Team Captain's mouth opened as requested.
Professor Yang was quick and nimble, placing the kirins blood jam directly into the Bodyguard Team Captain's mouth.
Then he closed the jaw again.
Only when he saw the Bodyguard Team Captain's throat move as he swallowed did Professor Yang finally breathe a sigh of relief.
But at this time, the Bodyguard Team Captain was still struggling.
However, the strength of the struggle was becoming smaller and smaller.
But to prevent any accidents, the members of the Bodyguard Team still pressed down hard on the captain, not letting him get up.
Until the Bodyguard Team Captain's struggling became weaker and weaker, eventually falling unconscious.
Only then did the members of the Bodyguard Team cautiously release their hold on the Bodyguard Team Captain.
Everyone couldn't help but wipe the beads of sweat from their foreheads.
And the members of the Symposium also couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief at this moment.
The heavy stone in Old Professor Zhou's heart finally slowly hit the ground...
