"As what I am saying, this lady got the red pill from the royal palace medicinal hall,"
Qi Zhou nodded his head. "She said that it came from her friend, one of the court ladies." He took a sip from his cup and gently put it down on the table. "At first, she didn't want to tell us everything but since the time is running out and we didn't want to waste another life, she finally spit it out,"
Sun Wei, beside him, agreed and crossed his arms. "I thought she would die or turn into something more gruesome when she took the blue pill, but it ended up treating her."
The atmosphere between the four eating across the table turned quiet.
Xianyu slammed his palm on the table, not too loud. "So you're saying that the blue pill was the cure while the red pill is the cause," he said.
