Chapter 120 I'm happy to help even if the price is higher
Even with her face covered by a veil, Yuxiao, who was walking behind, felt a little unbearable.
But when he looked up, he saw that Jiang Qingyue seemed to have lost all five senses. She lifted the curtain of the car and walked in.
Yuxiao's heart skipped a beat.
That person won’t die, right?
The moment the curtain of the car was opened, an even more disgusting smell hit her nose, and Yuxiao couldn't help but bend over and retch after just one look.
The man in the carriage was covered in pustules, which were rubbed by his clothes and were sticky everywhere.
The person she thought was dead now had his eyes wide open, and his scarlet eyes seemed about to pop out of his sockets.
The facial features seemed to have moved out of place due to the squeezing of the pustules.
Yuxiao is good at martial arts and has seen a lot of the world with Xie Lingyun, but she still finds it hard to accept such a scene.
This person is clearly a monster, he doesn't even look like a human being at all!
"Small……"
Before she could even call out "Miss", Yuxiao felt like vomiting out all her bitter gall.
This place is not a place for human beings to stay.
The lady didn't react at all?
In the carriage, Jiang Qingyue didn't mind the dirt and stench. Her movements were the same as usual, without any urgency, and there was only coldness in her eyes.
She lit the candle first, disinfected it, and then gave the injection.
Almost every time an injection was given, Anu shuddered with pain.
He has to endure this kind of pain every day.
He could neither live nor die, and could only linger in the carriage.
Sometimes he hated Jiang Qingyue for not letting him die, and sometimes he hoped she could heal him and free him from the pain.
These emotions intertwined together, and in the end, for some reason, I thought of those people.
If they hadn't asked him to lure away Jiang Qingyue's maid that day, he wouldn't have been captured alive and ended up becoming a drug slave.
If he had not been sent here, he would definitely still be with his wife, and maybe the couple would have children.
If not...
"Anu, this is the last shot."
Jiang Qingyue's words brought Anu back to her senses.
He stared with those eyes, and his facial features, which were squeezed by the pus and could not be seen clearly, became more and more distorted, for fear that Jiang Qingyue could not see his resistance.
Jiang Qingyue saw it, but she didn't show mercy.
She came from the northern border and knew best about the massacres committed by Beili against the people on the border of Daqi.
She felt no pity for the Beili people in front of her.
If this person wasn't her drug slave, she would have killed him on the first day.
Her acupuncture technique was extremely accurate, and she pierced Anu's Baihui acupoint with one needle.
Suddenly, Anu felt as if he was pierced by thousands of arrows, or as if his heart was cut out. The sharp pain went straight to his bones, and he felt so painful that he fainted.
But Jiang Qingyue withdrew the needle in just a moment. He didn't feel anything from the first few needles, but with this last needle, it was as if he had dragged Anu, who was already on the road to the underworld, back from purgatory when he took it out, making him experience the bone-gnawing pain again.
Cold sweat mixed with pus and blood soaked Anu's dirty clothes, whose color could no longer be distinguished, as she gave her last stitch.
Jiang Qingyue skillfully disinfected the silver needles and put them away one by one.
Only then was he given medicine.
When the unknown powder was sprinkled on the wound, Anu felt a burning sensation and screamed in pain.
But his throat had already been pierced by a needle by Jiang Qingyue, making him mute. He could only open his bloody mouth like a fish dying of thirst, but could not make a sound.
Jiang Qingyue turned a blind eye until she had sprinkled the medicine on all the festering abscesses, then she put the powder away with a distressed look on her face.
"Anu, this time the powder has Jade Maiden Grass added to it, it should be able to cure the plague."
Jiang Qingyue had just finished speaking when Anu's body visibly stiffened.
"Don't blame me for being cruel. Your Highness is dying. I'm using you as a drug slave to save him."
The person who was just frozen just now suddenly raised his head and looked at Jiang Qingyue in disbelief.
She knows?
Looking at Anu's shocked expression, Jiang Qingyue suddenly raised the corners of her lips under the veil.
"You want to ask, how do I know this?"
She blew out the candle that was almost lit and placed it in the corner, while slowly speaking.
"You don't know, they sent you to me on purpose so that I could use you as a drug slave and test the medicine for your Highness. Otherwise, how would I know his identity?"
"They promised me that if I could save your prince, they would give me ten thousand taels of gold and endless wealth and glory."
"Anu, you should have heard that I am the Jiang family's unfavored biological daughter. The Jiang family favors their adopted daughter. I chose this path for self-protection and to have a way out. However, if someone can offer a higher price, I would be happy to help."
Anu couldn't speak, he just stared at her blankly, not knowing whether he heard the words or not.
Everything that needed to be said had been said, and Jiang Qingyue believed that Anu would figure it out.
Before leaving, Jiang Qingyue saw through the despair in Anu's eyes, and the smile under her veil seemed to deepen.
As the curtain of the sedan chair closed, Anu's despair turned into complete resentment.
Yuxiao finally recovered and saw Jiang Qingyue coming down and hurried to greet her.
But she had been in the carriage for so long that her body was still filled with that smell.
Yuxiao endured the discomfort and wanted to get closer, but was pushed away by Jiang Qingyue.
"Don't follow me."
Seeing that her face was really ugly, Jiang Qingyue said, "There is a white pill on the table in my bank's account where medicine is kept. Just take one pill orally."
Forget it, she glanced at the carriage behind her.
"I gave him some medicine. The smell will be much lighter in half an hour."
Then she said to Yuxiao, "Come and watch over him in a moment. If he has anything to say, come to me immediately."
Yuxiao was puzzled.
This drug slave is unable to live or die, and cannot even utter a single word. How can he say anything?
But since it was the young lady's order, she just had to listen obediently.
When they arrived at the tent, Jiang Qingyue waited outside first. She only went in after Yuxiao went in, took the medicine and left.
The fishy smell went straight to her head, how could she not smell it.
But compared to what she encountered in the northern border, what she encountered was a thousand times more terrifying than this.
Perhaps it was because she had lived a wealthy life in the Jiang family for a few days that she became a little spoiled, so when she came back, she immediately asked the guards to boil two buckets of hot water to prepare to wipe her body.
The clothes that had been taken off were placed on a rack outside the tent, and medicinal herbs were lit in a charcoal brazier below for fumigation and disinfection.
In just a moment, the smell of the medicinal herbs penetrated the curtain and filled the entire tent, overwhelming the fishy stench that still lingered in the nose.
She wrung the towel half dry, and then the hot water steamed over her skin from her neck down. Jiang Qingyue felt relaxed all over.
She moaned and thought that it would be great if she had a bathtub so she could soak in the hot water.
Just as this thought came to my mind, a gust of cold wind blew in.
Jiang Qingyue shuddered. She looked up and saw Xie Lingyun lifting the curtain. When he saw her naked body, he froze in place...
