Chapter 195: The most taboo thing for people in our line of work is...
Yu Lingye frowned.
Ever since Xie Yingmian used special means to put the Du'e Gu into hibernation, he has not been tortured by it for a long time.
It seems that the person who cast the spell on him can no longer sit still.
Xie Yingmian said, "Do you remember I told you that the Du'e Gu in your body is not an ordinary single Du'e Gu, but a Du'e Twin Gu."
Yu Lingye: "Remember."
Xie Yingmian: "Just remember it, there's no need for me to explain it again."
"I told you last time that a twin Gu doesn't mean there are only twins. It could be three, four, or even more. In other words, there might be other immature Gu hidden within your Du'e Gu."
"So, I have good news and bad news."
Xie Yingmian didn't keep anyone in suspense.
She said, "The bad news is that the poison in the carriage can not only awaken your Du'e Gu, but also activate it."
"Let me put it in simple terms. If this medicine fails to awaken the insect I'm controlling, it will cause the other insects to mature quickly."
Yu Lingye's expression didn't change much, but his eyes were gloomy.
Fu Mo was clever for once: "So, the good news is, we can confirm that the prince's Du'e Gu is not twins, but three or four?"
Xie Yingmian praised: "You are right."
Fu Mo was furious: "How abhorrent! Putting a curse on the prince is like a chain reaction."
At the same time, he was still afraid.
If it weren't for the princess's cleverness, the prince would be in danger today.
Xie Yingmian: "Think carefully, has anyone ever approached the carriage, or has anyone ever been close to this place?"
Fu Mo thought about it seriously.
He only went to the toilet once in these few hours.
When he went to the toilet, Brother Tianjia would also keep an eye on the carriage and would not give thieves any opportunity to take advantage.
No one approached the carriage except the young monk who added charcoal to the fire.
Little monk...
"Oh, I remember now." Fu Mo slapped his head heavily.
"A young monk from Huangyun Temple came to add charcoal to the fire once."
"The snow fell suddenly, and Huangyun Temple is unlike other places. There's no room to park carriages here, so they have to be parked outside. To prevent the carriages from getting wet, the heaters in the carriages have been running non-stop."
"After a long time, the charcoal fire will burn out."
"So, the monks from Huangyun Temple came and brought the finest silver charcoal to the carriages parked here."
"Since every household has that kind of charcoal fire, I didn't think much about it. Now I think the poison must have been brought in through the silver charcoal." The more Fu Mo spoke, the paler his face became.
"Go find him," Xie Yingmian said. "If you find that young monk, do you still remember what he looks like?"
Fu Mo thought his memory was pretty good.
However, the monks all had bald heads and wore the same clothes.
Finding one bald head among a group of bald heads is as difficult as finding one stone among a pile of stones.
"I'll go find it right away." Fu Mo said.
After Fu Mo left.
Xie Yingmian and Yu Lingye found a place to shelter from the wind and snow.
Without the wind and snow, it immediately became much warmer.
Xie Yingmian took Yu Lingye's pulse.
Fortunately, Yu Lingye was exposed to the poison for a short time and it did not have any effect on him.
The Du'e Gu in the abdomen was also quiet, with no signs of agitation.
"It's not a big problem." Xie Yingmian said, "Don't worry."
Yu Lingye: "Thank you."
Xie Yingmian: "Why are you being polite? I'm paying for it."
"However, as your attending physician, I still have to remind you that although the poison didn't cause you any harm, your Du'e Gu is like a bomb and may explode at any moment."
"The energy of the Longevity Stone cannot repair your body. It must be the Du'e Gu and that thing that are causing the trouble."
"My suggestion is to find the mother Gu as soon as possible."
"Only by completely eliminating the mother Gu can your Deliverance Gu be removed and your body can recover."
Xie Yingmian stopped there.
She took Yu Lingye's money to help him avoid disaster, so she had to say some things.
However, whether Yu Lingye would carry it out or not was beyond her control.
Yu Lingye didn't respond for a long time.
Just when Xie Yingmian thought Yu Lingye would skip the topic, Yu Lingye spoke up, "If the Du'e Gu doesn't work for a long time, she might come forward on her own initiative."
Xie Yingmian raised his eyebrows.
She had heard Fu Mo say before that Yu Lingye knew who the mother Gu was.
That person seems to be very important to Yu Lingye.
"Is the she (he) you're talking about a man or a woman?"
Yu Lingye: "Female."
"Oh?" Xie Yingmian asked, "Your... sweetheart?"
Yu Lingye did not admit it, but he did not deny it either.
Xie Yingmian felt inexplicably sad.
It felt as sour as drinking a glass of unsweetened lemonade.
When this feeling came up, a sentence suddenly popped up in Xie Yingmian's mind: In our line of work, the most taboo thing is to fall in love with patients.
She didn't think she liked Yu Lingye.
However, she now occupies the position of Princess Ling, and Yu Lingye is her nominal husband.
It would be a bit uncomfortable if the nominal husband had someone else in his heart, even if they were just a fake couple.
She didn't know where this feeling came from, it was weird anyway.
"The decision is yours, I'm just giving you a suggestion." Xie Yingmian said.
Yu Lingye was silent.
Xie Yingmian didn't say anything else.
The cold wind in winter can blow from any direction.
Occasionally, there was wind blowing in where they were looking, and the cold wind brought snowflakes.
The snowflakes were blown by the wind and hit Xuan'er, floating down to the ground.
In a short while, everything was covered in white.
The two stood side by side, silent with each other.
When Fu Mo came back, his nose was red from the cold.
"Prince, Princess, the person has been found."
"But, that little monk is already dead." Fu Mo's expression was complicated.
"His body was found in the well, his clothes stripped off. He must have been killed by the murderer before the charcoal fire was divided."
"The murderer killed someone, wore his clothes, disguised himself as him, and distributed the poisonous silver charcoal to us. After discovering the body, the monks of Huangyun Temple searched for it but found nothing. I think the murderer may have escaped."
"Your Majesty, I will send someone to track them down right away."
Yu Lingye was not surprised by this answer.
"No need to check anymore," he said. "Go back."
"But..." Fu Mo was unwilling.
This was his negligence, and he felt uneasy if he didn't find the murderer.
Xie Yingmian said, "Your Highness is right. There is no need to investigate further."
"Go deal with that basin of charcoal first."
Fu Mo returned to the carriage dejectedly.
After bringing out the charcoal brazier, Xie Yingmian sprinkled a handful of medicine powder over it.
The medicinal powder blended with the charcoal fire, making a crackling sound.
When the crackling sound ended, the silver charcoal turned into pitch black.
The black stuff is sticky, smells terrible and is disgusting.
Fu Mo was so close that the stench hit his nose and he almost vomited: "Princess, what is this and why does it stink so bad?"
"Go catch two mice." Xie Yingmian ordered.
Fu Mo was very disgusted: "Why are you catching mice?"
