Chapter 398 You are being plotted against
The next morning, Gu Xiaoxi took a few children and set off for Medicine City.
There are many merchants in the medicine city after the New Year, all of whom come to buy medicinal seedlings.
They stayed at Zhang Shu's inn. When the innkeeper saw Gu Xiaoxi, he thought he was seeing things. It was not until Gu Xiaoxi came forward to say hello that he was sure.
"Miss Xiaoxi, it's been a while since we last met. You're finally here. Please come in." He invited everyone inside while instructing the waiter beside him, "Waiter, prepare the rooms for the guests. Food and drinks are all free!"
"Yes, yes, I'll prepare it right away." The waiter ran ahead after hearing this.
Another waiter saw Gu Xiaoxi coming, rushed to the door and rode to Zhang's house.
Before Gu Xiaoxi and the others had completely settled down, Zhang Shu had already arrived, exhausted.
The moment Ying San and Ying Si saw Zhang Shu, they almost didn't recognize him. This kid was not only darker, but also thinner. He looked completely different.
"Zhang Shu, what's wrong with you?" Ying San asked with concern.
"I had a serious illness last July, and after I recovered, I couldn't gain weight. Plus, I've been traveling with my dad on business, and I got a tan, so I've completely changed.
Haha, you don't have to worry about me, I'm fine now!" Zhang Shu laughed, and when he laughed he looked even more like a skinny monkey.
Ying San couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he pulled Zhang Shu to see Gu Xiaoxi.
Gu Xiaoxi saw at a glance that there must be something wrong with Zhang Shu's body, so she immediately examined Zhang Shu and confirmed that her guess was correct.
She asked Ying San and Ying Si to take care of their own business, closed the door, and began to bleed Zhang Shu and give him an acupuncture. Soon, several small black worms were forced out of his body.
She put the little bug in a porcelain bottle and planned to study it carefully when she had time, as it might be useful in the future.
"How, how could this happen?" Zhang Shu looked at the little black bug in disbelief. They had spent a lot of money to hire a doctor, but he didn't even find the bug.
"Next time you notice a major change in your body, don't just call a doctor, invite a few experts who understand Gu insects.
You have been tricked. This poison was planted by someone close to you. Go back and investigate carefully.
Don't underestimate this bug's small size; it can make you skinny as a rib and then kill you instantly!" Gu Xiaoxi told Zhang Shu about the bug's power.
She thought that this kid Zhang Shu was really destined to be with her. This bug had been in his body for a while. In a few months, people would probably start harvesting it.
Zhang Shu thought seriously about the people around him, his face gloomy.
When the eldest brother got into trouble, they screened everyone around him, but they still haven't cleaned up everything.
Gu Xiaoxi took out a talisman from his body, drew a talisman on it with his bare hands to cover it, and then handed the talisman to Zhang Shu.
"Take this back, gather everyone in a yard, and then burn the talisman. Whoever has a strong smell on his body is the one who cast a curse on you." She told Zhang Shu how to use it.
When Zhang Shu heard this, he got up angrily, but found that he had no strength left in his body.
"Do you think it's made of iron? Your body has been sucked blood by little bugs for so long. Just lie down and it's good enough that you can go out at night." After Gu Xiaoxi finished speaking, she turned her back to Zhang Shu and poured him a glass of water. However, the water was replaced with spiritual spring water.
"Drink it and have a good sleep." She handed the spiritual spring water to Zhang Shu.
Zhang Shu obediently drank the spiritual spring water and fell asleep after a while.
After he fell asleep, Gu Xiaoxi walked out of the room and found Ying San and the others were still waiting at the door.
"Girl, is he okay?" Ying San asked with concern.
"It's a good thing we found it, otherwise we would have to burn paper for this kid in a few months." Gu Xiaoxi said helplessly.
Ying San and Ying Si frowned after hearing this.
Gu Xiaoxi ordered again: "You guys take the others out to play. Don't count me in tonight. That guy needs an injection soon. It will be midnight by the time I'm done."
"I'll take them there, and Ying Si will stay behind, so you don't have anyone to look for." Ying San said.
Gu Xiaoxi thought about it and felt that it was okay. There were quite a few people coming this time anyway, so it should be no problem to look after a few children.
"Ying Si, go to your room and rest. I'll ask someone to come find you." She didn't think it was necessary to have someone guard the door.
"Yes!" Ying Si responded and retreated.
Gu Xiaoxi hung a sign at the door, asking the waiter not to disturb her, and she went back to the room and set up a formation.
After finishing, she pressed the sleeping pill on Zhang Shu's body, gave him a nutrient solution, and let the robot watch over him. She returned to the space to take a shower and change into clean clothes.
After changing her clothes and eating something in the space, she also took a nap.
By the evening, Zhang Shu's infusion was over and No. 2 woke her up.
She pulled out the needle from Zhang Shu's hand, took the robot back to the space, and then woke Zhang Shu up.
Zhang Shu felt like he had slept for a long time and now he felt both energetic and hungry.
"Sister Xiaoxi, can we go out for dinner?" He touched his rumbling stomach.
"Go ahead, I'm hungry too." After saying that, Gu Xiaoxi put away the formation in front of him and walked out of the room.
Zhang Shu turned over, tugged at his clothes, and hurried to follow.
Gu Xiaoxi called Yingsi and the three of them went downstairs.
Zhang Shu's servants saw the young master coming and waited at the door in a carriage.
Gu Xiaoxi got on the carriage and asked curiously, "Wasn't that the guy named Hat following you before? Why did he change?"
Zhang Shu said gloomily, "I don't know what's wrong with my second uncle. He took me away for several months and hasn't released me yet."
Gu Xiaoxi didn't ask any more questions after she finished speaking. It was normal for a big family to have intrigues and deceptions, and it was not a good thing to get involved too much.
This time, the two came to a restaurant that Gu Xiaoxi had never been to. There were many signature dishes here.
Ever since Zhang Shu recovered from his last illness, he has had a very poor appetite, as if he had anorexia. He doesn't like to eat this or that.
Today he ordered a large table of dishes and had a feast with Gu Xiaoxi and the others in the private room, without showing any sign of annoyance.
The servants around Zhang Shu widened their eyes in disbelief when they saw that the young master ate so much at once.
"Master, can your stomach handle eating so much at once?" he asked worriedly.
"You'll turn into a diarrhea coward in a moment!" Gu Xiaoxi said with a wicked smile.
"What do you mean by diarrhea coward?" Zhang Shu said he didn't understand what this meant at all.
Gu Xiaoxi rubbed his nose and said, "You'll know soon."
After she finished speaking, she drank the soup in her bowl, stood up and walked out of the private room with great satisfaction.
Zhang Shu wanted to catch up, but found that his stomach was rumbling.
Oops!
I haven't eaten greasy food for a long time, and suddenly I ate so much. Well, something seems wrong.
The servant hurriedly helped his master to find the toilet, and then stood outside to guard it.
Gu Xiaoxi and Ying Si got on the carriage and waited, wondering if this guy would be carried back soon?
