Dark Moon, who was still in shock, was charmed by Qin Qianluo's cuteness. She nodded in agreement, realizing that she hadn't expected Emperor Xuanyuan to be so clever. However, she could understand; after all, how stupid could someone who was an emperor be?
Those who heard the voices came to the light screen to observe the experts. They were all shocked. If 001 described them as terrifying, how powerful must they be?
Qin Qianlu was in a bad mood. She angrily finished eating an apple and looked at the five people outside the light screen. Although she didn't have to worry about food and the space had a self-cleaning function, it would be troublesome if she didn't go back for a long time. Her parents would worry.
As if suddenly remembering something, she quickly asked 001, "They're so powerful, is there anyone in our country who can defeat them?"
Everyone was taken aback. They thought of this question and became alert, listening intently to 001's answer. If only half of the ten experts showed up, it would be enough to give them a headache. If they attacked Xuanyuan, would they still have a chance of winning?
001 paused for a moment, then quickly flipped through the files. "It's alright, Luo Bao, don't worry. Although they are powerful, they don't have military authority. The Emperor of Xuanyuan Kingdom was afraid they might rebel, so after taking the throne, he used poison to control them. Their files show that, except for the mysterious person ranked first, the rest have all been controlled."
He then flipped through the files of the generals of the Tianxuan Kingdom, saying, "Moreover, our General Mu and some other titled generals are all capable fighters with high combat prowess. If they were equipped with good weapons, they wouldn't lose."
Qin Qianluo was relieved to hear this. As long as they could win, that was good. As for the issue of military power, she didn't think that the dog emperor would still refuse to relinquish military power after Tianxuan had already invaded.
After thinking for a moment, he asked again, "Were Ling Xue and the others poisoned and controlled?"
After reviewing their information, 001 said, "No, Luo Bao. Even the strongest of the three, Dark Moon, couldn't last three moves against the weakest. Emperor Xuanyuan doesn't value their martial arts and wouldn't bother wasting poison on them. That secret poison must be quite difficult to make, and the medicinal materials required must be very precious."
Dark Moon thought to herself, "Even though what you said is true, it's embarrassing for me to say it out loud. Well, I'm also quite lucky. At least I wasn't poisoned, which is something to be happy about."
Ling Xue and Ling Wei were speechless, but inwardly they were relieved. Qin Qianlu twitched her lips, glanced at the five people outside the light screen, gritted her teeth, and thought, "So what if we just wait it out? I have my own space, what's there to be afraid of? At worst, I can stay a little longer. It's not the first time anyway."
He stood up, said something to the crowd that had gathered around him, and headed towards the study, asking as he went, "001, I'm quite curious about how powerful the person ranked number one is. Logically, if he's so powerful, why would he be willing to be second to someone else? And what kind of poison is that? Is there an antidote?"
001 also couldn't find that mysterious person. 'Luo Bao, I can't see that person's information, I don't know their name or appearance. I looked at that poison carefully, it looks a bit like a Gu worm, not quite like poison, but Emperor Xuanyuan told them it was poison.'
Everyone was shocked. How could there be such a thing as Gu worms? Xuanyuan is far away from Miao territory. This is not something that only exists in Miao territory. What connection does the King of Miao territory have with Emperor Xuanyuan?
Qin Qianluo was equally puzzled. She had already entered the study when she heard about Gu worms. Her brows furrowed slightly. How could there be such a thing as Gu worms? Is there a Miao region here?
She asked, "Gu worms? Are you sure it's Gu worms? Is there Miao territory here too? Is the Miao leader on good terms with the Yellow Emperor?"
001 carefully examined the description of the poison in the file and confirmed, "It's a Gu worm. There are Miao people here too. I don't see any connection between the Miao King and the Yellow Emperor. I only found this information in the files of those five people."
Qin Qianluo had a headache. This Emperor of Xuanyuan Kingdom was more difficult to deal with than she had imagined. First, there were ten top experts, and now there were Gu worms. He had too many trump cards. She had indeed underestimated him and should not have underestimated her opponent. She should be more vigilant in the future.
After thinking for a moment, he asked, "I remember there might be books about Gu worms in the library. I'll go look for them."
001 responded with a "yes," and Qin Qianlu left the study and headed towards the library. She carefully searched through the categories and finally found the books about Miao territory and Gu worms. Although they might be different from the Miao territory here, they shouldn't be too different.
Following the directions, Qin Qianluo found the books but didn't go out. She sat on the ground and flipped through them, asking 001 to identify the type of Gu worm. She wanted to understand how to break the curse, turning the pages one by one.
Upon seeing the description of the Mother-Child Gu, 001's voice rang out, "Luo Bao, this is it. The one Emperor Xuanyuan gave them to take was the child Gu, while the mother Gu should be inside Emperor Xuanyuan's body."
Looking at the introduction of the Mother-Child Gu, Qin Qianluo felt much more at ease. Cultivating this Gu worm was extremely difficult, and there probably weren't many offspring Gu. She didn't need to worry that Emperor Xuanyuan would use this on his own people.
However, it cannot be ruled out that he may have other Gu worms. I still need to be more careful and develop some medicines that can restrain Gu worms and Gu poison. Thinking this, I went to find the "Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica" and "Tang Materia Medica" to read.
Finally, she found several herbs that could counteract the poison. Thirteen herbs, including Gastrodia elata, Euphorbia pekinensis, Curcuma longa, Aucklandia lappa, Coptis chinensis, and Gynostemma pentaphyllum, all had the effect of counteracting the Gu poison. Qin Qianlu went to the Chinese medicine pharmacy and searched around. She found that she already had all of these herbs, and even the seeds.
Overjoyed, he prepared to make antidote pills. Although he had antidote pills in his own space, he was unsure if they could cure the Gu poison, so it would be better to make some in case of emergency.
For an entire afternoon, Qin Qianluo, along with Ling Wei and the two medical guards, busied themselves in the pharmacy, producing enough pills to cure the poison. Satisfied, she clapped her hands, divided some into portions, giving one to each person in the space, and leaving the rest for the shadow guards before carefully storing them away.
