The Saint brought Envoy Lu back to the Saint's bedroom.
She had three trusted envoys. Envoy Lin was injured in the Qionghua Palace and had been bedridden to recover. Envoy Lu was in charge of the general affairs of the Holy Maiden Palace, and he was not as steady as Envoy Lu, so she only brought Envoy Lu with her.
The saint stood in front of the quiet and dark window and gave Envoy Lu a look, and Envoy Lu knew what the saint was going to do next.
She dismissed the disciples in the bedroom, gently closed the door, lit two dim oil lamps, and waited respectfully by the side.
The saint pressed the mechanism on the windowsill, and the wall beside her slowly moved, revealing a dark secret room.
"Take the stuff out."
The saint gave the order calmly.
"yes."
Envoy Lu stepped inside and took out a palm-sized jade bowl.
She presented it to the Saint with both hands.
The saint took off the lid of the bowl, and inside was a small, snow-white poisonous insect.
The saint drew the dagger from her waist, cut her finger, and dripped a few drops of warm blood into the bowl.
There is always more than one way to control puppets. Every puppet master is actually poisoned by a Gu, just in case they get out of control.
With the improvement of drugs and the improvement of control methods, puppets rarely get out of control.
Wei Xu was an exception.
Now, the saint wants to use this mother Gu to call the child Gu in Wei Xu's body.
The reason why this method has not been tried before is that it also causes certain damage to the person who put the poison in the body.
The saint not only needs to be fed with blood, but also consumes a large amount of internal energy.
In addition, the mother Gu also emits a strong toxicity.
Envoy Lu's face began to turn pale.
The saint sealed her acupuncture points with both fingers and gave her a poison-proof pill to take.
"Thank you Saint for the medicine."
Envoy Lu bowed.
She feels much better.
The Saint said sternly: "The anti-poison pill is only effective for three hours. If Wei Xu cannot be recalled before then, we must stop the Gu, otherwise you and I will both be poisoned to death."
Lu Changshi's expression changed: "What if..."
The Saint said calmly: "Wei Xu's situation is the same as ours. If he doesn't come back within three hours, he will die of the poison."
When the child Gu senses the call from the mother Gu, it will control Wei Xu to return to the mother Gu and release a large amount of poison at the same time.
Wei Xu didn't have any anti-poison pills, so he would only be more anxious than them.
…
Wei Ting sent Su Xiaoxiao home.
Just as she arrived at the Cheng family’s door, Su Xiaoxiao woke up.
She opened her eyes, lay in Wei Ting's arms and looked straight at him: "Did you kiss me secretly just now?"
Wei Ting had a cold expression on his face and said, "No."
Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes.
Wei Ting said: "We are here, you should go in."
Su Xiaoxiao wanted to have a good talk with him, but she suddenly felt there was something in the pharmacy.
This is the first time I have had this feeling since owning a small pharmacy.
Was it an illusion, or was her connection with the pharmacy further deepened? She had to go and confirm it quickly.
"Let you go first!"
Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking and got off the carriage.
Wei Ting breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Xiaoxiao quickly opened the curtain: "You just stole the kiss!"
Wei Ting recovered Gaoling Flower in a second: "No."
Forget it, I’ll go to the pharmacy first and get the principal and interest back next time.
Su Xiaoxiao returned to Cheng Sang's yard.
Cheng Sang and the three children were all asleep, while Uncle Quan and Yuchi Xiu were playing chess in the yard.
Su Xiaoxiao's mouth twitched.
Yuchi Xiu chuckled and said, "You didn't expect that this God would actually have such a refined taste in the mortal world."
Su Xiaoxiao punched him on the head.
Yuchi Xiu: “……!!”
Su Xiaoxiao entered the house and walked into the pharmacy with her eyes closed.
There was indeed an extra box of medicine on the table in the lounge.
It's liquid, and there are five packets in total.
Su Xiaoxiao held her forehead with her hand.
Su Xiaoxiao put away the medicine and went to see the snake bone flower.
Recently, she comes in every day to fertilize and water the snake bone flower, and it seems to be effective.
The flower bud has grown bigger, and the day of flowering is getting closer.
"Bud...Snake Bone Flower..."
Something flashed through Su Xiaoxiao's mind. She looked at the new medicine in her purse and murmured, "Could it be for Wei Xu?"
Coming out of the pharmacy, Su Xiaoxiao came to the yard.
Yuchi Xiu and Uncle Quan have been playing chess for five games.
He didn't win a single game.
In the sixth round, Yuchi Xiu stuck his sword into the ground.
Uncle Quan endured the humiliation and tried very hard to lose to Yuchi Xiu, but he ended up in disaster.
Losing to such a fool is harder than defeating a chess master! "Yuchi Xiu."
Su Xiaoxiao came to his side and looked at him with a smile.
Yuchi Xiu felt uneasy when she looked at him: "Don't look at me like that, or I'll misunderstand you!"
Uncle Quan gave him a speechless look, as if to say, "You are like this, and you are still worried that the young lady will like you? The son-in-law is much smarter than you!" That's right, in Uncle Quan's heart, he has automatically regarded Wei Ting as his future son-in-law.
Su Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "There is one thing that Wei Ting has been doing, but he is not here, right? I thought, maybe you can do it for me?"
Yuchi Xiu hesitated and said, "Has anyone else done that?"
Su Xiaoxiao thought about it and answered seriously: "Except Wei Ting, no one."
Yuchi Xiu's body trembled, and he suddenly hugged his arms tightly to protect his chest: "Don't mess around! I don't want to mess around with mortals like you!"
Su Xiaoxiao grabbed his collar and pulled him off the stone bench.
Yuchi Xiu couldn't fight with her, what if she got a miscarriage?
"Hey, hey, hey, let go! This God will not obey you!"
Su Xiaoxiao dragged the sack all the way and dragged the person into the house.
Uncle Quan shook his head: "Alas."
Su Xiaoxiao closed the door, bolted it, and pointed to the small bamboo bed in the room: "Lie down on it."
Yuchi Xiu became even more frightened.
Su Xiaoxiao said, "What are you standing there for? Lie down quickly and take off your shirt."
Yuchi Xiu folded his arms, looking as if he would rather die than obey.
Su Xiaoxiao was annoyed, so she walked over, pinched his chin, and dropped a small drop of medicine into his mouth.
"You still... wu——"
Su Xiaoxiao covered his mouth and made him swallow it.
Hearing the gurgling sound, Su Xiaoxiao let him go.
Yuchi Xiu sat on the ground soullessly, like a young wife who had been severely abused.
He's been drugged, he's screwed...
Su Xiaoxiao took out a stethoscope, opened his shirt, and listened for a while: "The heart rate is normal."
I took his pulse again.
"The pulse is normal."
Then look at the fingers and forehead.
“No symptoms of poisoning.”
Su Xiaoxiao touched her chin and said, "Well, it looks like it is indeed an oral medication, but I don't know what it is used for."
…
Elder Lou’s courtyard.
Wei Xu is still waiting for Su Xuan.
Su Li advised him to go back first, or go into the house and have a nap.
Wei Xu did not move.
Su Li was at a loss: "If you don't want to sleep, I'll go to sleep first. If you're sleepy, come in. I'll keep the door open for you."
In fact, it wasn’t too late at night, but Su Li was injured and he was sleepy.
He turned and went into the house.
Suddenly, the guard behind him moved.
Su Li turned around and wanted to ask if you were ready to sleep, but found that Wei Xu was not in a good state.
My dears, today is the day when I ask for your help. I will just give you two monthly tickets. Thank you all.
