"It's not me. My benefactor saved my father's life. How could I poison her?" Hearing that Murong Yi was poisoned, Long Jingyu was also shocked. He was worried that Gu Qingxi would misunderstand, so he quickly explained.
"Who else could it be if it wasn't you? Even if it wasn't you, it must be someone from the Long family. In short, it's you who are harboring evil intentions." Qi Xiangdong said unwaveringly.
"Think about it, besides your Long family, is it possible that someone else poisoned her?" Gu Qingxi was too lazy to pay attention to Qi Xiangdong. After thinking for a while, she asked Long Jingyu.
Murong Yi was obviously poisoned for more than one or two days. With her cultivation, unless she was poisoned to death all at once, she should be able to dissolve the poison little by little.
But Gu Qingxi just checked carefully and found that the poison showed no signs of dissolving, indicating that the toxicity was very serious.
If she couldn't find out what poison she was poisoned with, even with her medical skills, it would be difficult to help her detoxify. And if you want to find out what kind of poison it is, of course, it is the most direct and simple to start from the person who poisoned her. >
"It can't be someone from our Long family. We are all grateful to our benefactor and would never do such a cruel thing." Long Jingyu denied it flatly.
"What about the Tang family? Could it be someone from the Tang family who did it?" Gu Qingxi guessed.
"It shouldn't be either. Since the last incident, our Long family has been on high alert and activated the protective formation left by our ancestors. The Tang family can only attack violently if they want to break the formation. It is impossible for them to sneak into the Long family silently." Long Jingyu thought for a while and shook his head again to deny it.
If it were someone else, I'm afraid they would be eager to take this opportunity to provoke a conflict between the Renxin Alliance and the Tang family and take revenge with the Renxin Alliance.
But he knew that Gu Qingxi asked these questions in order to detoxify the benefactor, so he didn't dare to mislead her. Moreover, as a demon cultivator, he also has his own pride and dignity, and he disdains to play such despicable tricks.
Hearing Long Jingyu's answer, Gu Qingxi couldn't help but think highly of his character, but at the same time she was a little worried.
It's neither a member of the Long family nor a member of the Tang family, so who could it be? How could she detoxify Murong Yi if she couldn't find the person who poisoned her?
If Murong Yi's cultivation was lower, she might be able to use the Taisu Nine Needles to force out the poison, but she was also a Nascent Soul. While forcing out the poison, it was likely to destroy her spiritual roots, and she would never be able to practice again.
For Murong Yi, such a result would be worse than just killing her.
"She's not from the Long family, nor is she from the Tang family. Could it be that she poisoned herself?" Gu Qingxi was at a loss, and Qi Xiangdong snorted disapprovingly.
Poisoned herself? Gu Qingxi's mind flashed with inspiration, as if a thunderbolt had fallen.
Poisoning oneself, this kind of thing is definitely not something that ordinary cultivators would do - ants still try to survive, let alone human cultivators, a human cultivator as powerful as Murong Yi.
But the problem is, is Murong Yi an ordinary human? Gu Qingxi felt that it was very likely that such a strange thing would happen to her, and apart from that, she couldn't think of any other possibilities.
"Did Fellow Daoist Murong eat anything strange in your Long family?" Gu Qingxi asked Long Jingyu.
"Strange things?" Long Jingyu looked at Gu Qingxi in confusion, and then he became nervous again when he thought of something. "After Lord Murong came to our Long family, someone prepared three meals a day for her.
That person is a hereditary chef who has served the Long family for generations. Even though our Long family fell into such a state, he did not leave. He is loyal to our Long family and is grateful to Lord Murong for saving the Long family. He would never poison her."
Needless to say, he was worried that Gu Qingxi would suspect the loyal chef.
"You misunderstood me. I meant whether she had eaten anything strange, not that someone poisoned her." Gu Qingxi said patiently.
"This..." Long Jingyu was relieved. He thought hard for a long time and suddenly exclaimed, "Could it be the ghost face and rotten spider fruit?"
"What ghost face, rotten spider fruit?" Gu Qingxi was a little confused.
Although the medicinal materials and spiritual crystals of Yuanzhen Continent and Tiancang Continent are roughly the same, there are always some differences. Yuanzhen Continent
has its own specialties, and Tiancang Continent also has its own specialties. In addition, the names of some medicinal materials and spiritual crystals are also different.
For example, the ghost face and rotten spider fruit mentioned by Long Jingyu are not available in Yuanzhen Continent. Gu Qingxi doesn't know whether it is a specialty of Tiancang Continent or a different name.
Of course, this is also because she has not fully recovered her memory. If she has all the memories of her previous life, this will not be a problem.
"Ghost face and rotten spider fruit can barely be considered spiritual fruits. The grade is very low. They can be used to refine some low-grade pills and can also be eaten, but if eaten at the same time, it will be poisoned.
I have a few of them planted in my backyard. Murong Enong saw them once and asked me a few questions." Long Jingyu explained.
Then he said in disbelief, "But it shouldn't be, such an ugly fruit, how could Lord Murong eat it?"
"That's right, such an ugly fruit, just thinking about it gives me goose bumps, who can eat it? Impossible, impossible." Yan Rongan and Jiang Haoning shuddered and said in unison.
"How do the ghost face and rotten spider fruit taste?" Gu Qingxi didn't think so.
For a super foodie like Murong Yi, the spiritual fruit only has the difference between being edible and not edible, delicious and not delicious, and absolutely no difference between beauty and ugliness.
Others may not be able to eat these two spiritual fruits because they are too ugly, but for Murong Yi, this is not a problem at all.
I have to say that Murong Yi is really a very philanthropic person.
"I don't know, the ghost face and rotten spider fruit are said to be edible, but I think probably no one has eaten them. They are too ugly, but they smell strange." Long Jingyu said as he took out two spiritual fruits from the shabby storage bag that had been passed down for generations.
Gu Qingxi looked at Long Jingyu's storage bag and fell silent. The Long family is so poor that it makes people sad.
Then, after Gu Qingxi saw the fruit that Long Jingyu took out, she continued to remain silent.
Ugly, really ugly... No, saying ugly is a compliment to them. It is simply disgusting, terrifying, and unbearable to look at.
The so-called ghost-faced spiritual fruit is pitch black and crooked, with pits and bumps on the surface, forming a distorted, terrifying facial features similar to a human face. It looks like the legendary evil spirits and ghosts. When
a timid mortal sees this kind of fruit at first glance, he will probably be scared and think he has seen a ghost. Just looking at it makes people feel scared, let alone eating it.
The rotten spider fruit is colorful, covered with fine fluff, and has an irregular shape. The grooves on it are like tiny spider legs deformed and attached to it.
The whole fruit looks like a smashed poisonous spider, which makes people feel nauseous and creepy.
Seeing Long Jingyu suddenly take out the ghost face and rotten spider fruit, Jiang Qiulin and others were shocked and instinctively stepped back.
Normal people have a natural aversion to things that are too ugly or too fierce, and medical practitioners are no exception.
Gu Qingxi couldn't help but take a deep breath.
It must be admitted that these two spiritual fruits are really ugly, but the fragrance is really as fragrant as Long Jingyu said, and she felt a little appetite after smelling it.
Not only Murong Yi, Gu Qingxi is actually a very philanthropic person.
