A few days ago, in the snow-white hospital room, white curtains fluttered, and the air was filled with a cool scent and the smell of disinfectant. The man on the bed was thin, his skin as pale as paper, and his breath was faint with each breath.
The woman in the black business suit leaned back on the sofa, her eyes slightly closed, her expression weary and indifferent. Then he suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of inspiration striking him. He felt this situation was so familiar; Tian Yingjie's appearance was clearly that of someone under a love spell.
How could a playboy like Tian Yingjie possibly be willing to commit to just one person? Besides, she had seen Ma Zelan before; she was beautiful, but it was impossible for her to possess such breathtaking charm. It was only through those disgusting and bizarre poisons that it could be explained.
It must be said that Ma Wenzhu was extremely efficient. She quickly contacted Master Liu, who had a long-term partnership with the Tian family. He happened to be in Anle City and arrived at the hospital in half an hour.
“Master Liu, my husband seems to be poisoned lately. Please help me see if there is any way to cure him.” Ma Wenzhu’s face showed just the right amount of worry and anxiety. The reason she chose Master Liu was because in her dream, it was this Master Liu who helped her get rid of that vile woman’s poison.
Master Liu was around 50 years old, dressed in a brown Tang suit, with two disciples following behind him. His triangular eyes gleamed with shrewdness, and he tidied his sparse beard, giving him an unfathomable look.
"Mr. Ma, rest assured, I will do my best to handle anything I can." Ma Wenzhu was generous, and Master Liu was very willing to cooperate with her. Over the years, he had benefited a lot from Ma Wenzhu. Now he had both fame and money, and he was riding high.
As for Gu poison, such a technique has been lost for many years, and only a few people know about it. It's unlikely to be such a coincidence. At most, he might have been affected by some kind of black magic, which he is very familiar with. Breaking it would be a piece of cake for him.
Unfortunately, Master Liu was quickly proven wrong. He lifted Tian Yingjie's eyelids and circulated his energy around Tian Yingjie's body. Finally, he discovered a small, finger-sized worm with an ominous, blood-red aura in his meridians.
"This..." Master Liu was quick-witted and immediately plucked out two hairs from his beard. His face contorted in pain for a moment, but he still maintained his masterly demeanor, while his inner thoughts were racing.
Gu worms are not easy to cure. Once you cure them, you offend a powerful Gu master, which could lead to a fight to the death. Moreover, Gu poison is difficult to cure, since Gu masters have disappeared for many years, and very few people know how to cure Gu poison. It just so happens that he has some knowledge of it.
Offending a powerful Gu Master was not a good choice for him, unless Ma Wenzhu was willing to offer him greater benefits. In a short time, Master Liu had already drafted a plan in his mind, but his face remained indifferent.
"Mr. Tian has indeed been poisoned by a love potion. It must have been a woman who administered it to him. People poisoned by love potions become infatuated with the person who cast the potion and are extremely obedient. It's mostly done by women to keep their lovers. It's not difficult for them to become so stubborn, but..."
Master Liu was indeed quite skilled; Ma Wenzhu kept cutting his hair in his dream, which was how the love potion worked. When he saw the man hesitate, Ma Wenzhu immediately understood his meaning: Master Liu's skills were directly proportional to his greed, yet he was the one who had no shortage of money. So, he waved his hand generously.
"As long as Master Liu can help me get rid of the love curse, I will definitely reward you handsomely and you will absolutely not suffer any loss." Tian Yingjie is, after all, her husband and the rightful head of the Tian family. If the other party were to cause trouble for her, that despicable woman who is wholeheartedly helping Ma Zhelan would definitely make a huge scene, and she is not willing to cause herself such a big trouble for a little money. Anything that can be solved with money is not a problem.
That was exactly what he wanted to hear. Master Liu's eyes lit up, but he remained unmoved on the surface. He gave a few instructions to his apprentice behind him, and soon everything was ready.
Master Liu casually cracked open a small piece of the eggshell, took out the yolk, burned the talisman paper into powder, mixed it with the egg white, added some medicinal herbs, and then put the opening of the eggshell towards Tian Yingjie's mouth.
Upon seeing this technique, Ma Wenzhu's eyes lit up. It was exactly the same as what he had seen in his dream, further confirming the dream's reality. The slight worry in his heart dissipated, and he lazily leaned back on the sofa, quietly waiting.
This is Master Liu's family's secret recipe, using ingredients that the ancient city loves most. It's perfect for preparing it. Master Liu's expression also carried a hint of pride as he waited quietly.
Nearly an hour later, neither of them looked very pleased. Master Liu even had a few beads of sweat on his forehead. Although he had never used this method before, the ancestral recipe clearly stated that it only took half an hour to lure out the Gu worms, and an hour had already passed.
"Master Liu..." Ma Wenzhu was about to question him when a commotion came from the other end, drawing the attention of everyone in the room.
"Master, come quickly!" Master Liu's youngest apprentice held an eggshell and could clearly see a faint bulge moving back and forth on Tian Yingjie's throat, the skin pulsating and quite eerie.
Even knowing the other party had Gu poison in their body, this scene was still truly chilling. If he hadn't been by Master Liu's side for so long, the little apprentice would probably have dropped the eggshell and run far away in fear.
With a whoosh, a tiny, blood-red shadow darted out, shattering the thin eggshell and spilling egg white all over the bed. Master Liu happened to be looking over when, before he could react, the tiny shadow rushed toward his face, covering him completely.
Ma Wenzhu and the other two turned their heads and gasped in horror. The heavy substance exploded upon contact with Master Liu's skin, turning into thick, blood-red blood. Master Liu instantly became a blood-soaked figure.
The most terrifying thing was that the viscous blood seemed to have added sulfuric acid, and it made a sizzling sound when it touched a person's skin. Soon, a strong burning smell filled the room.
"Ahhhhhhh—" The man's painful, hoarse voice instantly brought the others to their senses. The three of them frantically called for a doctor, creating a chaotic scene.
After the doctors carried them away, Ma Wenzhu realized that her back was soaked with sweat. The scene had been too bloody and cruel. Master Liu was probably crippled. There was a pile of foul-smelling, burnt liquid on the ground, which was disgusting.
At this moment, Ma Wenzhu still felt a sense of unreality. At the same time, she experienced the terrifying power of the stock market sorcerer.
Looking at Tian Yingjie sleeping peacefully on the bed, Ma Wenzhu suddenly felt an unprecedented resentment and disgust. If this man hadn't been a womanizer, she wouldn't be like this.
A love potion? It's a pretty good tool, anyway, it can make this person stop and become Ma Wenzhu's dog.
