Chapter 1260

"Since you know what it is, why did you want to touch it? You ..." Dominic blinked his eyes, suddenly

realizing something as he said sternly, "You did it on purpose!"

"I didn't do it on purpose. I was just curious if there were any exceptions, like perhaps it isn't as

poisonous now that it has been improved and cultivated differently."

She held her cheek up with one hand and looked out over all the other ferns and plants, straight at the

yellow flowers of the wilfordi root.

The herb looked average, similar to other plants. The tender, green buds looked like tea leaves, but

who could have imagined this was the poisonous wilfordi root?

Most people might not be familiar with the wilfordi root. It belonged to the famous plant family-

heartbreak grass!

According to the myths, a farmer had tasted all sorts of herbs and finally tried the wilfordi root, which

brought about his death as it was something that could not be treated.

Although it was just a myth, it was a fact that the wilfordi root was poisonous. If one accidentally took in

its buds, leaves, or branches, nausea and diarrhea would soon follow. It would also cause irreversible

damage to its consumer's blood vessels and nervous system.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the wilfordi root is the most poisonous herb in the world.

"Cultivation and improvement?" Dominic found this idea to be fresh. After a moment, he asked, "Have

you tried it?"

"Nope.” Lily shook her head, maintaining her posture." However, I want to know if there's any possibility

of that."

"Theoretically, we cannot deny the possibility of anything happening. After all, nothing is ever absolute

in this world. However, according to my experience and judgment after being in this field for so long, it's

impossible to do that!"

He pretended to be twirling his beard, forgetting that Galen had pulled those few strands of the beard

off when Lily brought him over the other time. As half of it was gone, he decided that he might as well

shave everything off after that.

His chin was smooth, but he could not eliminate his habit of twirling his beard.

'Oh, I thought the institute was that capable that they had cultivated a non-poisonous type of wilfordi

root,’ Lily said casually, lowering her head to play with the tea pet on Dominic's tea tray out of boredom.

"Hm?" Dominic could tell that there was a hidden meaning behind her words. Narrowing his eyes, he

probed, "What do you mean?”

Lily tilted her head and threw him a sideways glance. "You insisted that I join the institute and said that

there was some special meaning to the things they do, and maybe they could bring about a new era in

the health industry. In one of the experiments at the institute, they used the wilfordi root."

"Oh!" Dominic answered, then paused for thought. He added, "There's nothing strange about it.

Although its branches, leaves, and buds are poisonous, they can be used in medicines. After all,

poison is a kind of medication as well, and it all depends on how it's used. I told you this before. Since

they're experimenting with new medications, they would use other poisonous herbs even if it was not

the wilfordi root."

Dominic did not take the matter seriously. To him, it was just a usual thing in the industry.

Lily curved her lips into a faint smile. "That's right. But they're not using its roots but its buds in the

experiment!"

"Could they be trying to extract the portion of the poison with medicinal effects? Didn't you say that they

wanted to mix the herbs with the fragrances so that the fragrances could cover up the special smell of

the herbs?"

"Yeah." Lily continued to play with the tea pet and answered casually.

Dominic put the pieces of the puzzle together quickly." They're trying to make an odorless poison that

could be used anywhere easily?" "I didn’t say that!" Lily put the tea pet down and pointed at him,

showing how innocent she was in this conversation.' Those are your words!”
