"Mr. Ma, I'm going to need your cooperation."
Li Xu picked up a piece of Poria Cocos and held it out to Ma Pengfei. "Here, please smell this."
Although Ma Pengfei was still angry, he wanted to find the cause of his problem, so he suppressed his discomfort and took a sniff.
"Nothing's happening."
Next came Atractylodes, papaya, licorice...
Ma Pengfei smelled five or six different herbs in a row without any unusual reaction.
It wasn't until Li Xu picked up a small, brown piece of Agarwood and held it out to him.
The moment he brought it close to his nose...
"ACHOO! ACHOO!"
Ma Pengfei suddenly let out two violent sneezes, and tears immediately began to stream down his face.
"Jeez... This smell... How is it so strong?"
Before he could even complain, he felt dizzy and his vision swam. His chest tightened as if something was blocking it, and an inexplicable sense of irritation and panic washed over him. The feeling of ants crawling all over his skin grew even stronger.
