A thousand enlightenments in one night, starting from being a menial apprentice.

Chapter 13: Morning Glory Seed

Soon a large table of dishes was served, but Duan Rong just chatted and didn't pick up his chopsticks.

Are you kidding? This is the Hongmen Banquet. Neither of them ate it, so how could he dare to eat it? What if he was drugged?

After Duan Rong made two or three concessions and saw that the two of them had eaten almost all the dishes on the table, he suddenly devoured them like whirlwind!

The way he eats looks like a starving ghost!

Kong Bin and Zhang Zheng then realized that this was the money they had spent!
Normally, the two of them would not be willing to eat such delicious food!
The three of them immediately rushed over like wild dogs fighting for food!
After everyone had eaten most of the dishes, Zhang Zheng suddenly asked, "What's wrong with the boss? Why hasn't the tripe been served yet?"

"Go to the kitchen and urge them to come." Kong Bin said with his side face, then raised a bowl of wine and said to Duan Rongrang: "Brother Rong, let's have another bowl."

Zhang Zheng stood up and walked towards the kitchen.

In fact, they didn’t order any tripe at all.

Zhang Zheng walked into the kitchen and said to the old waiter, "Add some beef tripe!"

The old man's face turned bitter, and he said, "I'm busy, sir. You have to queue up for more dishes!"

"I can't wait! Well, I'll do it myself! I'll still give you the money!" Zhang Zheng said.

Seeing this, the old man said it was okay, and took out a piece of tripe from the basin, threw it on the table, and said, "That's all the tripe, peppers and onions, you can use as you like!"

Zhang Zheng used a hot pan and hot oil to stir-fry a dish of stir-fried beef tripe in the kitchen. When he saw that it was about to be served, he took out a small packet of black and white mixed powder from his pocket, sprinkled it into the pan, stir-fried it for a few times, and then served it on a plate.

That packet of powder is morning glory seeds, which are the seeds of morning glory. In ancient times, it was a common laxative used by the people.

"Compendium of Materia Medica" states: "Morning Gnaphalium seeds are good at dispelling dampness and heat, clearing the water channels, and also promoting bowel movements."

Although it seemed that Zhang Zheng had only sprinkled a small amount, the amount he used was actually quite large.

"Boy, I'll teach you how to eat. If you eat this, I guarantee you'll have vomiting and diarrhea. You have to vomit out whatever you eat!"

Zhang Zheng smiled sinisterly, holding the plate of steaming stir-fried beef tripe, and walked out of the kitchen.

Zhang Zheng placed the plate in the middle of the table and said with a smile, "This cook is so slow. If I don't urge him, who knows how long it will take to finish the job."

"Brother Rong, come and try this beef tripe. It's fresh out of the pot. I specially asked the chef to put more chili in it. It's very flavorful!" Zhang Zheng looked at Duan Rong and said.

Duan Rong seemed to be a little drunk. He held up a bowl of rice wine and said vaguely, "There's no rush for food. Come on, let's have another bowl."

Kong Bin and Zhang Zheng looked at each other, raised their wine bowls, and drank them all together with Duan Rong.

All three of them drank a lot, especially Kong Bin, whose eyes were already red.

"Come, the tripe is almost cold. Brother Rong, come and eat something!" Kong Bin pretended to pick up a piece of tripe with chopsticks, but did not swallow it. He just put it on the plate in front of him.

When Kong Bin was drunk, he actually smiled in a somewhat lewd way, which was completely different from his usual stern face.

Duan Rong found it a little funny.

Duan Rong was not actually drunk. His slightly tipsy state was just an act.

Not only was he not drunk, he actually felt more energetic the more he drank. It seemed that the original body's alcohol tolerance was really not to be underestimated.

Although Duan Rong kept offering him wine, he still didn't dare to pick up his chopsticks to eat the plate of stir-fried beef tripe.

Are you kidding? Zhang Zheng had been in the kitchen for quite some time, and neither of them wanted to eat. He kept asking himself, what if there was something wrong?

Later, when Duan Rong realized that he couldn't refuse, he pretended to pick up a piece of tripe with chopsticks. But when he was about to put it into his mouth, he twisted his wrist, blocking the view of both people. The chopsticks loosened, and the tripe fell under the table and was eaten by a hairless big yellow dog.

Duan Rong's mouth was empty, and he made a creaking sound while pretending to chew. He said, "This tripe is good, crispy and flavorful!"

"Since you like it, brother Rong, then eat more. We are fellow disciples from now on, so we have to take care of each other." Kong Bin was in a good mood when he saw Duan Rong eating. He raised his lower body, swayed his feet, and pushed the plate of tripe in front of Duan Rong.

After all, the three of them were drunk. Duan Rong then took advantage of them not paying attention and fed the plate of tripe in front of him to the big yellow dog at his feet.

Kong Bin and Zhang Zheng smiled at each other when they saw that Duan Rong had finished the plate of tripe in front of him.

After the three of them had their fill of food and drink, they chatted for another half an hour before leaving the restaurant.

As soon as he walked out of the door, the cold wind blew and Duan Rong's alcoholic breath came up. He suddenly felt the urge to urinate and said, "You two wait for me. I'll go get the water."

"Is this kid having his period?" Zhang Zheng said with a drunken smirk.

Duan Rong walked to the alley next to the restaurant and urinated against the wall. He suddenly saw the hairless big yellow dog under the table lying in the alley, like mud, with a pool of loose feces under it. Duan Rong suddenly shuddered and almost urinated on his feet. "This is a fucking laxative!"

It hasn't been long since the dog has pooped like this.

If he eats the whole plate and his legs become weak from diarrhea, how will he take the test tomorrow?

"Vicious and ruthless!"

"You really drugged your father!"

Duan Rong suddenly felt a little scared. He really underestimated these two guys.

If the two of them really wanted to fight him, Duan Rong was not afraid, but it was hard to guard against drugging, and it was a laxative, which would not harm his life. Even if he reported it to the escort agency, no one would care, not to mention that he had no evidence!
Duan Rong was in the alley, looking at Kong Bin and Zhang Zheng who were waiting for him at the entrance of the alley. Suddenly, he turned and went around to the escort agency from the other end of the alley.

Kong Bin and Zhang Zheng waited in the cold wind at the alley for a long time, but Duan Rong didn't come out. They shouted a few times, but Duan Rong didn't respond.

Zhang Zheng said, "Is it an attack?"

"So fast?"

"Of course, it's a big plate! And it's not too long, is it?"

After they finished talking, they both laughed, and without waiting for Duan Rong, they supported each other and walked back to the escort agency.

Both of them were a little drunk, and they fell asleep as soon as they returned to the dormitory.

Naturally, they didn't notice that Duan Rong had already fallen asleep peacefully at the other end of the bunk bed.

The next morning, Duan Rong got up early. He walked to the dormitory door and found Kong Bin and Zhang Zheng sleeping like dead pigs on the big bunk bed at the door.

Duan Rong smiled and walked out of the dormitory.

At this time, the sky was still dark, with only a big star hanging upside down in the sky.

As Duan Rong walked out of the dormitory, he was slightly surprised to find that there was someone who had gotten up earlier than him and had already started standing.

This person is Li Chong!
When Li Chong saw Duan Rong, he timidly called him "Brother Rong". Then he avoided Duan Rong like a mouse and stood in a corner.

Duan Rong looked at Li Chong and shook his head slightly. He had seen many people like him in his previous life. They bullied the weak and feared the strong, and admired the strong and oppressed the weak.

Although he appeared respectful to him on the surface, he actually hated him to the extreme in his heart.

A guy like Li Chong is actually more dangerous than Kong Bin and Zhang Zheng because he is crazier.

Kong Bin, Zhang Zheng only dared to use laxatives, I don’t think he dared to use arsenic.

"be careful."

Duan Rong warned himself in his heart.

He simply washed up and went to the woodshed. He was now accustomed to studying there early, and today was an assessment day, so he might as well go there early.

It was just daybreak and the yard of the woodshed was still shrouded in darkness when Kong Bin and Zhang Zheng walked in hurriedly.

After all, it is the assessment day, so it’s better to do it early than late.

As soon as the two entered the yard, they saw two people already standing there waiting.

It was Duan Rong and Li Chong!
The muscles on Kong Bin's face twitched.

He thought Duan Rong must have been stretched to the point of having weak legs today, but now, Duan Rong was standing there straight with a calm expression.

Kong Bin turned his head and glanced at Zhang Zheng behind him, and found that Zhang Zheng also looked surprised.

He believed that Zhang Zheng would never make any mistakes in his work, so there was only one possibility.

Duan Rong took advantage of the situation and tricked them both!

Kong Bin gritted his teeth, but in just a moment, his clenched fists loosened. He let out a long breath and stood beside Duan Rong with an expressionless face.

When Zhang Zheng saw Kong Bin standing over, he rolled his eyes, walked over, and stood in the gap between Kong Bin and Li Chong.

Duan Rong noticed the change in Kong Bin's expression and thought: Kong Bin is so young, but he is quite sophisticated. Among the crowd, he is considered a big shot.
