"How come there's such deadly poison on this island?"
Someone asked in puzzlement, but Riley didn't know the answer.
They had been on the island for a long time now; if the woman had poison on her, why didn't she poison Huo Siqian?
Why did she poison them when Huo Siqian was ill?
Huo Mian smiled but remained silent.
It all started from a weed she had spotted when she returned to the cottage from the basement.
The weed was insignificant to other people, but Huo Mian was a doctor and had read lots of books about herbal medicine, so she could recognize lots of valuable medicinal herbs.
The weed was a soul-eater; it stood there quietly and insignificantly but Huo Mian regarded it as a great treasure.
On that day, Huo Mian mixed the herb with other stuff to dilute the toxin in the soul-eater herb and made a toxic liquid.
She made large quantities of the liquid and mixed it in the bottled water stored in the basement.
