Chapter 418 Qin Shiba's Inner Fear
The space spirit was also frightened, "What did you see?"
Su Nuan shook her head. "How would I know? I can't see."
The Space Spirit chuckled and said, "Want to take a look?"
Su Nuan glanced sideways, "I know you can read my mind, but that's because we're connected. You can't possibly have any connection with him."
The Space Spirit chuckled, "Do you think the only bond between you and me is the space?"
Su Nuan looked at her in astonishment, but the space spirit did not give her the chance to ask questions.
Two thin white lines appeared on the Space Spirit's hand, one end connected to Su Nuan's eyebrows, and the other end connected to Qin Shiba's eyebrows.
Su Nuan quickly closed her eyes and cleared her mind. Her intuition told her that she should do this.
Soon, Su Nuan found herself in an unfamiliar room. The room was very gorgeous, with pillars painted with gold and inlaid with jade, not to mention the furnishings in the room.
But there were people kneeling on the ground in this room, and the heart-wrenching cries of children could be heard from the inner room.
Su Nuan raised her legs and tried to walk away, but she found that only her upper body was left, and the area below her waist had turned into droplets of smoke.
Fortunately, the space spirit was the same and was floating towards the inner room.
Su Nuan imitated the space spirit and slowly floated into the inner room. At this moment, she felt like she had turned into a ghost.
On the big bed in the inner room lay a little kid of three or four years old, his face purple from crying.
Upon closer inspection, the little kid turned out to be Qin Shiba.
Two old men were standing beside the bed, seemingly arguing.
There was a noble lady sitting on the chair, her brows furrowed. Although there was a look of heartache in her eyes, she did not speak.
The old man on the left said, "He's vomiting again. We must continue to feed him medicine."
The old man on the right said, "He's already in this state. He'll vomit even if you give him more medicine. In the end, I think he didn't die of a cold, but of suffocation."
Vomiting and crying can cause hypoxia, and death from hypoxia is suffocation.
Su Nuan touched her chin and looked at Qin Shiba lying on the bed. His face and lips had turned purple and he could barely cry. He was starting to feel suffocated and would die if he couldn't breathe properly.
Fortunately, the lady stood up and walked to the bed. Seeing Qin Shiba's appearance, she sat down on the bed and patted his back.
"Stop arguing. Even though he's not my son, he's still my child. I don't want him to die."
"You'd better be able to cure him. Even if he becomes a fool after recovery, it doesn't matter. My Qin family can afford to support him."
"I don't expect these children to achieve much, I just hope they can be safe and happy."
Su Nuan guessed from her words that this noble lady was the principal wife of the Qin family, and her favorability towards her increased sharply.
Because the pain in Mrs. Qin's eyes was real, it made people feel sad.
The Space Spirit said, "So he got scared of taking medicine when he was a child. That makes sense why he's so obsessed with medicine that's easy to swallow."
Su Nuan frowned, "But he is only three or four years old, how can he remember all this?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the scene went dark and bright, and Su Nuan found herself in a pavilion.
There was a little girl of eight or nine years old in the pavilion. She was very cute and her chubby little face looked very festive.
But the little girl didn't look very well and she kept coughing.
Qin Shiba, who was about ten years old, ran over with a bowl of medicine in his hand. "Sister Nineteen, drink the medicine. You will be fine after drinking it."
Qin Shijiu covered his mouth and shook his head, "No, I don't want to drink."
Qin Shiba said worriedly, "How can it be better if I don't drink it?"
Qin Shijiu's eyes flashed with despair. "Brother Eighteen, I just want to ask you, do you believe that it wasn't me who pushed Qin Xuan into the water? She pushed me into the water, and in my panic I pulled her in too."
Qin Shijiu nodded seriously, "Well, I believe you, and mother believes you too, so she asked me to come and comfort you."
Qin Shijiu's eyes sparkled, "Really?"
Qin Shiba nodded seriously, "When has my brother ever lied to you?"
A look of joy appeared on Qin Shijiu's face. She picked up the medicine bowl and drank it in one breath, but soon spat it out, causing her to cough even more violently, and she even started to spit out blood.
Qin Shiba was so scared that his face turned pale. He ran while shouting while carrying Qin Shijiu on his back.
But the blood from Qin Shijiu's mouth gushed out like a river bursting its banks, spilling all over the place...
When Qin Shiba found a doctor, the doctor tried to treat Qin Shijiu for a long time but was unable to save his life.
Qin Shiba slapped his cheek frantically, "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have let her drink the medicine..."
Su Nuan frowned and said, "Even though he lost so much blood, his body is still flushed red. He must have been poisoned by Tao Huayan, and he's been poisoned for half a year."
The Space Spirit asked, "You said the child was poisoned to death? But Qin Shiba didn't know that. He thought he had killed his sister by letting her drink the poison."
Su Nuan nodded, "Now that we've found the crux of the matter, I'll give him some guidance later and see if I can untie his knot."
This also has to do with an important part of what medical skills I want to teach him. A person with a knot in his heart can easily be trapped by it.
Only by untying his knot in his heart can he still be passionate about preparing pills and become a top alchemist.
The next scene was like a movie, showing some children dying accidentally after drinking medicine.
Su Nuan pursed her lips. No wonder the child was scared. She was also scared.
The space spirit said, "Go away. I don't want to watch this anymore. It's leaving me with a psychological trauma."
Soon, Su Nuan opened her eyes and looked at Qin Shiba who was squatting on the ground with his head in his hands.
She was reluctant to tell Qin Shiba about Tao Huayan, fearing that he would not be able to accept it.
The space spirit pushed Su Nuan and said, "Tell me, it's not his fault."
Su Nuan nodded, "Yeah."
She walked over and ruffled Qin Shiba's hair, calling softly, "Shiba, wake up."
Qin Shiba's trembling body stopped shaking. He raised his tear-stained face and asked blankly, "Master, can medicine harm people?"
Su Nuan was stunned by the question. Did he know about Tao Huayan?
Seeing that Su Nuan didn't say anything, Qin Shiba continued, "Even children resist taking medicine. There are also people who are born unable to take medicine. They didn't do anything wrong, so why did they die?"
Su Nuan sighed, "So you're researching pills to make them easier to swallow, right? You've done a great job, and you've succeeded."
"I'll teach you how to make other medicines in the future. I'll make the medicine look like candy, colorful. That way, children won't resist it, and if they're willing to take the medicine, they won't resist taking it."
Qin Shiba slowly relaxed and returned to normal. He nodded and said, "Thank you, Master. I will definitely study hard."
Su Nuan thought about what happened just now. Qin Shijiu mentioned Qin Xuan. Could it be that Qin Xuan poisoned her?
She asked tentatively, "Was Qin Xuan born in the Qin family? I always feel that her upbringing doesn't seem like that of a Qin family member."
Qin Shiba thought Su Nuan was trying to change the subject to make him relax, and he was deeply moved. His master was so kind and gentle, and he absolutely would not let his master down.
