Chapter 205: Serious Illness
"But what's wrong?" Jiang Lin noticed something was wrong.
Qin Xiangnuan's fingers moved back and forth on the wrists of the two men, and finally came to a conclusion, "There is still a poison in their bodies."
"What about those people yesterday?" Jiang Lin remembered that Qin Xiangnuan had taken their pulses.
"Same thing. We didn't check on these two yesterday." Qin Xiangnuan said, "They must have been taking this poison for a long time. The last bite only accelerated their death."
After Qin Guang woke up, he heard about the poisoning. When he heard that they had been taking poison for a long time, he could not guess the true identities of these people.
"You killed us."
Qin Xiangnuan was just about to go back to the room to get the antidote when a voice came from the bedside. Qin Xiangnuan's face was very solemn. The two people had difficulty speaking and their breathing was unstable, as if they were critically ill.
"Death is too easy. If you don't say anything, I will let you live like this." Qin Xiangnuan said this to the two of them, but she was worried in her heart that even if the two of them took the medicine, they would not live long.
"Jiang Lin." Qin Xiangnuan quickly walked out of the room after threatening. Jiang Lin naturally followed her, and she shouted as she walked, "You personally watch over them."
Jiang Lin stopped immediately. He guessed that Qin Xiangnuan had been acting abnormally for more than a day or two, but he had recently learned not to look for the source of the abnormality.
Qin Guang also heard the noise outside the door. Seeing Jiang Lin coming back, he asked, "Will anyone come to rescue them?"
"No," Jiang Lin responded, saying casually, "I'm afraid they'll be upset."
Qin Guang nodded to show that he understood.
Qin Xiangnuan was gone for just a moment before rushing back. She still took the syringe because the injection would be more effective and faster, but she also held oral medication in her hand as a cover.
"Dad, send Jiang Lin out." Qin Xiangnuan whispered in Qin Guang's ear as she passed by.
Qin Guang's expression did not change after hearing this, as if she had never said this. But after Qin Xiangnuan sat down on the edge of the bed, Qin Guang did as Qin Xiangnuan instructed and closed the door.
"General Qin, you can talk now." After being ten steps away from where Qin Xiangnuan was, Jiang Lin in front stopped on his own initiative.
Qin Guang lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking about, and didn't notice that he bumped into Jiang Lin.
"My apologies, my Lord." Qin Guang rubbed his head. "I was distracted just now."
"No problem." Jiang Lin repeated, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
"It's... that three-flower pattern." What Qin Guang said was true. "It shouldn't be from the Xiongnu. I can't remember it clearly, but I have seen something like it somewhere else."
"There's no rush." Jiang Lin thought for a moment, "I don't know if these people are coming for me or you. We just need to wait for them to reveal more."
"It's good that you know what's going on." Qin Guang really admired Jiang Lin's calm temperament.
After the two of them talked for a few more words, Qin Guang still didn't dare to take Jiang Lin back to the room. He just stood there silently and waited for Qin Xiangnuan to come out and call them before going in.
"The situation is not good." The antidote Qin Xiangnuan gave seemed like poison to them.
Qin Xiangnuan had just pushed for less than a minute when the two people's breathing quickened. She immediately stopped the medicine and took emergency measures to save their lives.
However, for them who are already weak, even rescue will only make the situation worse.
Jiang Lin saw Qin Xiangnuan looking dejected, so he stepped forward and gently placed his hand on her hair. "It's okay. It's a relief for them to be gone."
Qin Xiangnuan understood, but if she hadn't given them the medicine yesterday, the two of them wouldn't have ended up in such a helpless state.
"You... who are you?" At this time, the two of them caught their breath and said to Qin Xiangnuan.
They were just in a daze and saw many things they had never seen before. When they touched them, they felt cold, but soon they fainted.
After waking up, he stared at Qin Xiangnuan questioningly.
Qin Xiangnuan didn't answer them, but just apologized.
Before this, she had thought that if she could use some drugs to make them delirious, she could get the information she needed by questioning them, but this approach obviously didn't work, and Qin Xiangnuan also harmed them.
Qin Xiangnuan couldn't accept that a person might have died due to his own mistake.
"Nuannuan." Jiang Lin felt the apology was nonsensical and naturally noticed something was wrong with her. "What's wrong with you?"
After Jiang Lin squeezed her shoulders tightly, Qin Xiangnuan raised her head and said, "I'm fine."
Jiang Lin looked back at the two people who were trying hard to speak, and ignored them. Waiting for death was their end.
Qin Guang watched helplessly as Jiang Lin helped the man away, leaving him and two nearly speechless people behind. He muttered, "How should we handle this?"
"Kill us." After Qin Xiangnuan disappeared, this was their only demand.
Qin Guang also couldn't bear it. The two of them looked about the same age as Qin Xiangnuan, but they were suffering from serious illness. However, he would never kill anyone.
"Sorry." Qin Guang also apologized and left.
After they left, several secret guards appeared in the house, and the two men began to make new requests.
But in the end, he passed away because he could not bear it.
After Qin Xiangnuan knew that the person was gone, her depressed mood became even deeper.
"Nuannuan." Jiang Lin tried his best to persuade her, "It's not your fault. He wanted to commit suicide yesterday, but now he has lived for several hours longer than expected."
"That doesn't sound comforting at all." Qin Xiangnuan chuckled, "I know what you mean. You want to tell me that death is their final destination."
Jiang Lin nodded, "So don't worry about it."
"I don't want to either." Qin Xiangnuan sneered. She was also a person who killed people without blinking an eye. She was sad about accidentally killing two people, but her heart was still there and she softened a lot after all.
"Then forget it." Jiang Lin twisted her body so that they were facing each other. "Think about it. When are we going to set off?"
Qin Xiangnuan turned her head to look at the sun outside. It was not yet noon. "Let's pack up and go."
After hearing this, Jiang Lin asked someone to pack up. The real shopkeeper had been grateful to Jiang Lin and the others since he was rescued, and now he took the initiative to help pack up.
"Shopkeeper, please stay."
They didn't have much stuff to begin with, so they packed it up quickly. The shopkeeper helped them load it onto the carriage and even ran a few steps after it. Jiang Lin looked at him and called out, but the shopkeeper didn't listen.
"Whoa!" Jiang Lin stopped alone as he looked at the shopkeeper who was gasping for breath from exhaustion.
"Boss, is there anything you need my help with?" Jiang Lin felt that this was enough to justify the other party's behavior.
As expected, the shopkeeper rubbed his hands helplessly, "This young man is brave and handsome..."
"Let's get straight to the point." Jiang Lin interrupted his boasting.
"Sir, could you please help me again?" The shopkeeper was still beating around the bush.
Jiang Lin didn't say anything this time. His face turned cold and he turned his horse around.
