"Rather than waiting here to be killed in twenty days, let's try my method. Maybe if we're lucky, we can escape," to die sooner or later is still death, just trying it might offer a chance at life.
The villagers' hearts began to waver.
"Then tell us, how can we escape? We are only allowed out of the cave for a few hours each day, and whenever we go out, we are watched," the villagers said anxiously.
"Naturally, I have a way to get everyone out of the cave. I have a type of medicine here. Once ingested, one will appear as though dead, but after twelve hours, the effect of the drug will wear off." Yun Sheng took out an herb.
This herb, which she had found by chance in the Medicine Hall of the Wuxuan Wuji Hall, was called Poison Nutmeg, and it looked no different from ordinary beans.
Once, some uninformed farmers planted it as food. After ingestion, it would cause full-body paralysis, cease the heartbeat, and even stop breathing entirely.
