It's late at night.
Han Yu leans against the prison wall, while Yi Xian and Coconut each curl up in a corner, sleeping soundly.
In a daze, it seems like someone is softly calling out.
Han Yu shakes his head, feeling suddenly a bit confused, the voice calling next to his ear growing clearer and clearer.
"Han Yu, come over here!"
Suddenly looking up, the rotten wooden bars have transformed into a large pink bed, with draped curtains, and atop the high bed and soft pillows lies a snow-white, naked body.
The curves undulate, mountain peaks rise and fall, pressing heavily upon the pillows, leaving Han Yu dumbfounded.
Looking around again, the cold cage around him has long since turned into a fragrant boudoir.
"Why is Bai Junya here?"
Just as Han Yu starts to feel puzzled, Bai Junya on the bed shyly covers her enormous peaks, yet her hand is limited and can barely cover the pinnacle, as she coyly urges, "Han Yu, don't you recognize me?"
This scene makes Han Yu's blood boil, his eyes instantly turning crimson, his breath hot and fiery.
"It's impossible, how could Bai Junya be here?"
Han Yu vigorously shakes his head, trying to clear his mind a bit.
"Han Yu!"
Another voice comes from behind him, Han Yu turns back to look, and two streams of nosebleed spurt out.
Jade Ruyi stands behind him naked, her enticing pear-shaped body completely visible, her crossed arms not only failing to cover the view but making it even more alluring.
She gracefully walks to the bedside, climbs up, and embraces Bai Junya.
"Impossible."
Han Yu still struggles desperately.
"Come over! Come and join us!"
The two women whisper sweetly.
"I don't believe you're real, unless you lay down and let me see."
Han Yu grits his teeth and says.
After giving him a sidelong glance, the two women really sit up from the bed...
The nosebleed that just stopped bursts out again, Han Yu swallowing hard and hurriedly wiping his nosebleed away.
"I still don't believe it, unless you let me touch."
As he finishes speaking, before the two women could agree, he approaches eagerly, his large hands roaming continuously over their snow-white bodies.
Suddenly, Han Yu jolts awake and wonders, "Why is your skin so rough?"
"Because you're goddamn touching me!"
A light scold suddenly awakens Han Yu completely. Where did the boudoir and the women go? In front of him stands a man in a black, masked outfit.
At this moment, the man in black looks at him with eyes full of shame and anger.
Han Yu, his expression terrified, retracts his hands. Could it be that he was touching him just now?
Feeling sick to his stomach, he nearly vomits.
The man in black's eyes grow colder, and he shouts sharply, "Knock him out and take him away."
As soon as he finishes saying that, Han Yu feels a buzzing sound in the back of his head and dumbly turns back, seeing another person equally stunned and motionless.
This person is holding a bent iron rod aloft, wearing a face of disbelief.
He then defiantly bangs the rod against Han Yu's face a couple more times.
"This kid's body is frighteningly tough, use knockout powder."
As the words fall, two packets of powder simultaneously scatter onto his face. Despite this, Han Yu remains unmoved but quickly runs to the prison door, shouting, "Someone, help! Quickly!"
The shouting gradually stops because he sees not far from the prison door, a group of fallen prison guards.
"Use more powder."
The two men in black exchange glances, furiously cover their noses and mouths, using their other hands to continually throw more powder at Han Yu.
It was only until the cell was filled with powder and haze that Han Yu eventually fell.
"This kid is really a freak, his body is freakish, and his resistance to drugs is freakish too."
They angrily kick Han Yu several times, bruising themselves in the process before stopping. Then, with one lifting the head and the other the feet, they hurriedly carry him away.
The cell remains quiet, apart from the covering of white powder, leaving only Yi Xian and Coconut sleeping, both with a slight blush on their faces, dreaming unknown sweet dreams...
When Han Yu opens his eyes again, he sees a narrow, rat-like face with green bean-sized eyes, a face full of freckles, a flat nose, and a small goatee in the shape of an eight, grinning with a mouthful of large yellow teeth.
He immediately jumps up, rolling and crawling, and after surveying his surroundings, finds himself in a strange hall, surrounded by two rows of disciples standing guard, completely blocking his escape route.
"Young sir, don't be afraid. I am Rat Taoist, and this is the Five Immortals Sect. It's very safe here."
Rat Taoist wore a gentle smile, but with his shifty appearance, it looked more like a sly grin.
Han Yu frowned and chuckled, "Then why did you capture me?"
"Wrong, it's an invitation, not a capture. Unfortunately, the jail at Yujin Prefecture is not a place you can stay for long, so we had to use this measure to invite you over. We sincerely apologize for this later."
After speaking, Rat Taoist performed a courteous gesture.
Han Yu's tone softened as he asked, "Then why did you invite me here?"
Rat Taoist chuckled gleefully, twirling his small mustache, and said with a grin, "My request is modest, I just want to ask you for some medicine. I'm not picky; anything that suits me will do."
Seeking medicine?
Han Yu understood, but he had already used the pills to feed Jade Ruyi, who at this moment was probably nursing the kids in a remote corner.
Recalling the image of Jade Ruyi nursing, his heart stirred again.
"Young sir, young sir!"
Rat Taoist called several times to bring Han Yu's thoughts back.
Han Yu smiled awkwardly. Just as he was about to refuse, saying he had no pills, he noticed the sky outside the hall turning light.
It wasn't even midnight yet, so how could it be dawn now?
Han Yu was surprised, not realizing he had been unconscious for a whole six hours.
Slightly moved, he envisioned the Glazed Bottle in his mind, where a bright red pill rolled in his thoughts.
Paradise Pill: When consumed, the user enters an endless state of joy in the Mental Realm. Do not ingest the pill, consequences are at your own risk. Side effect: Forgets sadness and only experiences joy for a year.
Looking at Rat Taoist, he seemed quite happy. Perhaps this wasn't necessary.
So Han Yu could only shake his head, sigh, and say, "Sorry, I don't have any pills on hand."
Rat Taoist, still smiling, twirled his mustache without anger, waved some disciples over, and said, "No rush, no rush. You can leave whenever you decide to give us some."
Han Yu's eyes widened instantly; it felt like moving from one cell to another!
Perhaps Rat Taoist wanted more than just one pill, maybe he planned to exhaust his supplies entirely.
Just wait! As soon as the Poison Pill is ready, he'll be the first to receive it.
Han Yu smirked coldly at him, not intending to break out. A pill scam, regardless of the target, is still a scam.
This scam was quite satisfactory, not needing to mention side effects.
The morning sun rose.
Ye Zhiqiu was hastily awakened by his subordinates. He hurried to the jail where he first saw the prison guards lying around everywhere, then walked into Han Yu's cell with a dark expression.
At this moment, Yi Xian and Coconut were still sound asleep and found Han Yu already gone without a trace.
A subordinate squatted down, pinched some white powder from the ground, sniffed it lightly at his nose, and shook his head slightly, "Sir, it seems he was abducted, this is Confusing Smoke."
Ye Zhiqiu's face was terrifyingly cold. Leaning against the cell door, he crushed the wooden bars into splinters, scattering them from his hands.
Someone breaking in right under his nose and capturing a person, wasn't that a slap to his face?
"Put everything else aside and investigate this for me!"
A roar shook the Yujin Prefecture jail continuously...
All over the city, Palace Guards were bustling about, visiting the smaller sects set up within the city one by one.
The larger sects outside the city, listed as key targets on a few mountain peaks, were approached by units led by armored soldiers from the city.
Five Immortals Sect.
Very soon, a disciple reported that Palace Guards had come to investigate the trail of the escaped prisoner.
Rat Taoist was fully aware and waved his hand, saying, "Don't worry, let them search."
Han Yu's detention location was meticulously arranged, plus Ye Zhiqiu's attention was surely on the larger sects.
Who would think that the little pharmacist everyone was searching for would be under the thumb of a mere small sect?
Feeling pleased, Rat Taoist stroked his long beard and laughed heartily.
Half the day passed. Ye Zhiqiu waited in the government office, but no news came, his fury grew stronger.
By evening, Palace Guards and armored soldiers returned one by one reporting no findings.
Ye Zhiqiu nearly exploded on the spot, gritting his teeth, "You really like hiding, huh!"
Then his eyes flashed. He waved his hand to summon some officers, "Tell the brothers to make another round."
"This time, don't search for people, just inform all the large and small sects that the little pharmacist was forcibly taken away from Yujin Prefecture jail."
If they can't be found, let them tear each other apart, see if you can still keep hiding.
