"Um… Junior Brother, there's no need to be like this, right?"
The captain looked at Xu Qing and felt even more hesitant. He had observed many times in the past two days and discovered that Xu Qing was really taking poison and didn't stop.
"After Master comes, once he discovers that we lied to him, he will definitely be very angry." As Xu Qing spoke, he took a stalk of poisonous grass and took a few bites.
"So, if I'm a little more miserable, Master won't be so angry."
The captain's heart skipped a beat. At the same time, he was also worried about the implications of Xu Qing's analysis. If it turned out to be true, although Master would be angry when he arrived, Xu Qing's sincere attitude and thorough performance indicated a great deal of respect for Master.
Lying also had its own ways.
In that case, there was a high chance that Master's anger would subside.
