Immediately afterwards, blood began to flow uncontrollably from Gongzi Yu's mouth.
Unlike the dark red blood that comes out of a normal person's mouth, the blood that Gongzi Yu is spitting out is dark red and even has a hint of grayish-white.
Seeing this, Mingyue Xin turned around anxiously and grabbed Gongzi Yu's hand. She wanted to comfort him, but she didn't know if this was a normal reaction when the medicine took effect, and she was at a loss for what to do.
Similarly, Bai Xiaosheng, who was in the courtyard, and Gongzi Yu's attendant outside the door also noticed the noise coming from inside the house.
The moment the sound reached his ears, Bai Xiaosheng instantly slipped into the doorway.
The other four of Gongzi Yu's close attendants also turned and stepped forward, all five of them showing signs of anxiety through the door.
"Whoosh!"
However, just as the five of them gathered at the doorway, several whooshing sounds suddenly came from afar and landed on the back of a man in a white robe behind Bai Xiaosheng.
As these bursts of energy struck the man's back, the man, who had been standing ramrod straight, let out a muffled groan and collapsed limply to the ground.
At the same time, a bottle the size of a snuff bottle suddenly rolled out from under the man's sleeve.
The bottle made a slight sound as it rolled on the ground.
Upon hearing the sound, Bai Xiaosheng, who was standing at the door, and the other three people all quickly turned around.
When they saw the person lying on the ground, their expressions changed drastically.
But the next second, they discovered that a figure had suddenly appeared in the courtyard.
Who else could it be but Chu Qinghe?
When Chu Qinghe was discovered in the courtyard, the three remaining attendants at the gate simultaneously activated their internal energy.
Bai Xiaosheng, standing at the door, paused for a moment, his expression slightly taken aback.
Then, Bai Xiaosheng looked up at Chu Qinghe, and then at the attendant lying on the ground.
When his gaze fell upon the bottle that had stopped rolling beside him, Bai Xiaosheng seemed to have thought of something and immediately said, "Don't make a move, young friend Chu is one of us."
Upon hearing Bai Xiaosheng's voice, the internal energy circulating within the three people at the door paused for a moment.
After stopping the other three, Bai Xiaosheng stepped forward, picked up the elixir bottle from the ground, and smelled it.
But as Bai Xiaosheng took a gentle breath, his brows immediately furrowed.
Judging from the current situation, Bai Xiaosheng has roughly determined the current situation and understands that Gongzi Yu's close attendant took advantage of the moment when everyone's attention was distracted by the commotion inside the room to secretly poison him.
However, while colorless and odorless poisons are not numerous in the martial arts world, they are not scarce either.
Although Bai Xiaosheng had some knowledge of medicine, he was not an expert in it.
Although it was obvious that something was wrong with the smell inside the bottle, how could one tell what kind of poison it contained just from the smell?
In response, Bai Xiaosheng quickly looked up at Chu Qinghe, who was walking towards him.
"Young friend Chu, this poison?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe said slowly, "Autumn wind pierces the intestinal smoke."
Upon hearing the name of the poisonous smoke, Bai Xiaosheng's expression changed drastically.
"Autumn Wind Piercing Intestine Smoke" is one of the most potent poisons in the martial arts world. Although it is colorless and odorless, it is extremely toxic.
Even a Grandmaster-level martial artist would suffer rotten bones and intestines after being poisoned.
As Bai Xiaosheng's expression changed drastically, so did the other three attendants at the door.
At this moment, the three of them were clearly affected by the Autumn Wind Piercing Intestine Smoke. After their bodies swayed slightly, a bluish-black aura appeared between their brows.
As he walked, Chu Qinghe flicked his long sleeves, and several bursts of energy landed on the three attendants.
After the medicine rushed into their bodies along with the energy, the three attendants immediately felt the discomfort they had just experienced rapidly dissipate.
After regaining his senses, Bai Xiaosheng immediately thought of Gongzi Yu and Mingyue Xin in the room.
He quickly took a few steps, pushed open the door, and said to Chu Qinghe, "Thank you for your trouble, young friend Chu."
In response to Bai Xiaosheng's words, Chu Qinghe nodded slightly.
Then he walked towards the room.
After Chu Qinghe entered the room, Bai Xiaosheng and the other three attendants all focused their attention on the person on the ground.
Bai Xiaosheng sighed as he glanced at the attendant on the ground, whose eyes were now filled with madness and despair.
"It's always easier to guard against a thief within your own household than to guard against one day or night; this has been true throughout history!"
However, compared to Bai Xiaosheng, the other three attendants had more complicated expressions.
Surprise, bewilderment, and indifference flashed across his eyes in succession.
But after a few breaths, their expressions turned sinister, revealing their murderous intent.
As Chu Qinghe stepped into the room, his gaze immediately fell on Gongzi Yu.
At this moment, Gongzi Yu's face was no longer pale as it had been in a state of apparent death; instead, it was flushed red.
Furthermore, wisps of dark energy swirled around the center of its brow.
When Mingyue Xin saw Chu Qinghe enter the room, her eyes lit up, but she no longer had the strength to stand up.
As Chu Qinghe slowly approached, he used the same method to remove the poison from Mingyue Xin's body by waving his long sleeves, and then walked to Gongzi Yu's side.
After his gaze lingered on Gongzi Yu's face for a few moments, Chu Qinghe raised his right hand.
As Chu Qinghe unleashed his inner energy, some powder followed the energy and entered Gongzi Yu's body.
As these drugs were administered, although Gongzi Yu's body was still trembling and blood was flowing from his mouth, his face turned pale once again.
At this point, Chu Qinghe finally spoke, saying, "This situation will continue for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. It will be fine after that time."
