    With three rounds of wet paper torture, even the most determined person would be defeated.


    Only then did they know that the people with the poison sacs in their mouths were the people whom King Hui had left behind, while the others had been re-developed in the past two years, so they did not have those poison sacs.


    They had been able to escape cleansing back then because they had been in the dark and had never been used. In addition, the bailiffs had deliberately concealed them, so they had not been discovered.


    They had only been officially activated about a month ago. Their goal was to kill Gu Chengrui and get rid of Magistrate Sun.


    “So, where is the person who gave you the order?” Gu Chengrui asked.


    “The few of us only went to Mrs. Song’s manor for a gathering. After that person passed on the order, he set off.


    “He should have left Ping Yang long ago.” The bailiff said.


    “Do you know his name?”


    “I’m not sure. I only know that he wore a mask. People call him Master Liu.”


    “Master Liu?” Gu Chengrui was stunned for a moment after hearing that. If he remembered correctly, he was very likely the Young Master Liu who had helped King Hui almost rece County Magistrate Sun.


    “Is he wearing half a butterfly mask?” Lord Sun asked.


    “Yes, yes, a silver butterfly mask.”


    Lord Sun was furious when he heard that. This was the executioner who had almost taken his life back then. He looked at the judge and said, “I want this person. He is the trusted aide of King Hui.”


    “Yes, I will issue the arrest warrant in a while.” The judge promised.


    After that, except for Dr. Song’s family, everyone was poisoned to death and buried.


    However, Dr. Song’s family didn’t have a good ending either. They were directly exiled to the southwest.


    After he was done with his work, Gu Chengrui also announced the director, two deputy doctors, and three normal doctors in the medical center here.


    After exining their responsibilities and authority to them, Gu Chengrui returned to the magistrate’s manor after giving them an epidemic prevention booklet.


    At night, after dinner, when they were about to go to sleep, Gu Chengrui saw that Lin Yitian still wanted to follow them. He turned his head and asked, “What’s the matter?”


    “Dr. Gu, Yifan and I have discussed that from tonight onwards, the two of us will take turns to keep watch to prevent any idents.


    “But don’t worry, we’ll sleep in the outer room and not disturb your rest.” Lin Yitian assured him.


    Gu Chengrui did not object after hearing that. If Zhou Ying had not reminded himst night, he would be dead by now.


    Then, he said, “Thank you for your hard work.


    “In addition, go to the bodyguard agency tomorrow and hire two experienced bodyguards toe with you. Otherwise, the two of you will not be able to hold on for long.”


    Lin Yitian hesitated for a moment. “The people from the bodyguard agency aren’t safe. I’ll go to Hongyun Restaurant tomorrow to get two people from them.”


    “Alright, use them if you think it’s convenient.


    “Go to bed early. We have to set off again tomorrow.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he entered the inner room.


    In the dead of the night, Gu Chengrui called Zhou Ying through the Mother God statue.


    After Zhou Ying received the call, she immediately came over. She sent him a voice transmission when she saw Lin Yitian outside the room. “Put a fake of you sleeping in bed. I’ll pick you up, and let’s talk in the interspace.”


    Gu Chengrui quietly got up and stuffed his thick clothes under the nket. He faked a human sleeping in his bed, put on his shoes, and stood ready.


    As soon as he stood up straight, Zhou Ying brought him in.


    Gu Chengrui pulled her into his arms. “Last night was too close. If you hadn’t found me in time, I would be a corpse now.”


    “Hmph, let’s see if you still dare to drink so much in the future.”


    “It’s also because I haven’t seen Lord Sun for a long time, so I drank a few more cups. In the future, as long as I’m outside, I definitely won’t do it again.”


    “Just remember that, alright? Oh, right, who is that servant girl? Why did she want to kill you?”
