Chapter 235: Keep your distance



"It's called poison, but it's actually more like a curse. When your emotions get out of control, the poison will take advantage of the situation. When the poison takes effect, it's like being possessed by a demon. The whole person will become a demon without emotions who only knows how to kill and destroy."

Shen Yizhi was shocked and looked at him with worry, "Is there no way to solve it?"

Gu Xueting pressed her into his arms, "The Imperial Master said that the only way to cure the poison is to find the person who poisoned me. Don't worry, the magic poison doesn't cause any trouble on weekdays. Now I have learned to control my emotions, and the magic poison rarely attacks me anymore."

No way.

The devilish poison does not only take effect when emotions are out of control, but it will take effect once there is an emotional fluctuation. The more intense the emotions, the more severe the attack will be.

Originally, he could still keep his mind calm, and the evil poison had indeed not found him for a long time. But after meeting her, all his calmness was gone forever.

Now, it can be said that he is suffering from the pain of the demonic poison all the time.

But fortunately, he has been fighting against the evil poison for so many years. As long as his emotions are not completely out of control, he can control them and not be noticed by others.

Just like Shen Yizhi, there was no sign that he was enduring pain that ordinary people could hardly imagine.

All I can say is that he had great endurance and acted as if nothing had happened.

Shen Yizi was not comforted by him. She still had doubts about what he said. It was not because she did not trust him, but because she knew too well how he felt about her.

In order not to make her worry, he would definitely downplay the situation. The truth might be much more serious than he said! She communicated with Yichang through her mind: "What's going on with the magic poison?"

"Demon poison?!"

Yichang's surprised and fearful tone made Shen Yizhi's heart sink suddenly.

Sure enough, she knew that the magic poison was not that simple! "How do you know about the magic poison?"

"First, tell me what the devil poison is."

After listening to Yichang's story, Shen Yizhi felt cold all over, and cursed Gu Xueting in his heart! This bastard was simply risking his life to be with her.

If she had known this, she would not have provoked him!

Of course, this is impossible.

They had been entangled with each other four years ago, and they were destined to be together.

But when she thought about the fact that Gu Xueting, who had a calm face, was actually suffering all the time, especially when he was with her, his emotions would be several times stronger and the pain would intensify accordingly, and she had always deliberately teased him before, wanting to see him suffer a setback.

Thinking about it now, Shen Yizi wished he could give himself a good beating back then.

"Can the poison be cured?" she asked hopefully.

"It can be solved. There are two ways. One is to find the person who poisoned it and solve it from the source, just like removing a curse, you need to destroy the source of the curse. However, this method is probably very difficult to implement, because I guess the person who poisoned it is very likely not in this world.

"From your description, the demonic poison in Gu Xueting's body was probably brought from his mother's womb. In other words, it was actually his mother who was poisoned, but later she became pregnant and passed the poison to him."

"Can this poison be transferred from the mother to the fetus?" Shen Yizhi suddenly thought: "Will it be passed from the father to the next generation?"

If this is the case, then Qing Bao is——

Yichang was also unsure: "That shouldn't be the case, right?"

Shen Yizhi suppressed his concern and asked, "Is there another way?"

"This poison is rooted in the soul. If you want to detoxify it, you can cleanse the soul from the inside out. In this way, the poison will naturally disappear."

This method doesn't sound very friendly. Can the soul be moved easily? "After cleaning from the inside out, what will happen to the soul?"

"Well, isn't there a word in your original world called formatting? I think it's quite descriptive. After the soul is cleansed, it's probably equivalent to formatting. All the previous emotions and memories will naturally no longer exist. According to the local saying, it's just like drinking Meng Po soup and reincarnating."

Shen Yizhi: “…”

In other words, using this method, the poison would be removed, but Gu Xueting would forget everything in the past, forget her, forget Qing Bao... Just thinking about it made her feel so miserable that she wanted to die.

However, if the poison is not resolved, Gu Xueting's condition will become more serious every time it attacks, and eventually, he may really become a demon.

Compared to being forgotten by him, this situation was even more unacceptable to her.

"Don't be so pessimistic. In fact, if you think about it from another angle, this might not be a bad thing. Think about it, after his soul is cleansed, he will become like a newborn baby. Then won't he be able to do whatever you want?"

He also learned the word "pan" from Shen Yizi's memory.

"You can train him however you want. If you want him to like you again, it won't take a minute. Even though he has lost all his memories, he is still the same person. With the previous relationship as a foundation, this shouldn't be difficult."

After hearing these words, Shen Yizhi's mood, which had just been extremely depressed, brightened up a little.

"How do you say this method works?"

"You need a seventh-level soul-cleansing pill. Either you become a seventh-level alchemist yourself, or find a seventh-level alchemist to help you refine it. But no matter which one you choose, you must collect all the natural materials and treasures needed to refine the soul-cleansing pill."

Yichang then reported a long list.

What about Shuanglinzhi, Liuhekui, Wangenteng, Tianji Fruit, Emperor Xiumu... Shen Yizi had never heard of them.

"Since this interface is too low-level, it is basically impossible for high-level spiritual medicine to exist, so you must first be able to break through the limitations of this interface and go to a higher-level world. Just this alone may be impossible to achieve in your entire life. However -

"As the mother of Heaven's favorite, I have more confidence in you."

Shen Yizhi: I didn’t feel comforted.

But she would definitely help him get rid of Gu Xueting's magic poison! But before that, she had to reduce her contact with him as much as possible to prevent him from being restless all the time.

Shen Yizi immediately stepped out of his arms and sat down at a distance of an arm's length from him.

"Gu Xueting, from now on, we have to keep our distance. You can hold hands, but you can't hug or kiss. Promise me."

It was obvious that Gu Xueting would never agree to this. Even if it hurt like hell, he would hold her in his arms and indulge in her sweetness.

"Zhizhi, come here." He stared at her with a stern look in his eyes. His temperament was as mellow as fine wine, tempting her silently.

If it were in the past, Shen Yizi would have pounced on him long ago, and might even have taken the opportunity to tease him.

But now, it is impossible to tease him, and I have to reluctantly reject him.

She shook her head: "Be good, let's just sit and talk."
