"It's okay, don't be afraid." His voice was softer than ever before, with a soothing power.
Ren Yaoqi was no longer a child after all, and her ability to control her emotions was very good. She immediately tried to relax her body. Although her face was still a little bad, she still smiled back at Xiao Jingxi: "I'm fine, thank you."
If Xiao Jingxi hadn't risked his life to help her catch the venomous spider, it would have burrowed into her clothes. To find it, she had to take it off immediately. But she was outside, and if she undressed in public and it got out, her reputation would be ruined. But if she waited until she was back in the inner room to look for it, she didn't know if she would still be alive.
Xiao Jinglin breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Ren Yaoqi was fine, but he immediately frowned and looked at Xiao Jingxi: "Let me see your hand."
Xiao Jingxi paused. He smiled at Xiao Jinglin and said, "I'm fine."
Ren Yaoqi looked at Xiao Jingxi nervously. Xiao Jingxi had just tried to catch the poisonous spider with his bare hands. However, his hands were hidden by his sleeves. It was impossible to tell if he was injured.
Xiao Jinglin stared at Xiao Jingxi without blinking and repeated, "Let me see your hand."
Before Xiao Jingxi could say anything, Xiao Jinglin impatiently stepped forward and started to attack him.
Xiao Jingxi wanted to avoid it, but immediately stopped and looked at Xiao Jinglin helplessly: "Okay, don't do it, I'll let you watch."
Xiao Jinglin stopped, but continued to stare at Xiao Jingxi.
Xiao Jingxi sighed and smiled, then stretched out his right hand, saying gently, "This spider is specially cultivated for breeding Gu, so its entire body is poisonous. But don't be afraid, its poison can't kill me."
When Ren Yaoqi saw Xiao Jingxi's hands, he took a breath. The index finger and thumb of Xiao Jingxi's right hand were swollen, and if you looked closely, his face was a little pale.
Xiao Jinglin grabbed Xiao Jingxi's hand, frowned, looked at it, then raised his head and sneered at Xiao Jingxi: "The poison can't kill you! At worst, you can just give up your right hand!"
Ren Yaoqi was startled and didn't bother to avoid suspicion. He grabbed Xiao Jingxi's hand and examined it while saying to Hongying beside him, "Quickly prepare some indigo leaves, realgar, alum and vinegar. Although I haven't seen that kind of poisonous spider, this detoxification recipe should be of some use."
While carefully examining Xiao Jingxi's injuries, she racked her brains to recall whether there were any other prescriptions for detoxification in the medical books she had read.
Xiao Jingxi's hand was originally a little painful, and now when it was held in Ren Yaoqi's hand, he felt a little itchy and numb. He didn't know if it was a sign of poisoning, but he didn't pull his hand out.
Xiao Jingxi's ears still blushed uncontrollably, but he remained composed and smiled as he comforted Ren Yaoqi, "I'm really fine. The medicine I take every day has detoxifying properties. While ordinary people might not be able to withstand the venom of that spider, it's no problem for me. Other book friends are reading: The redness and swelling on your hands will go away in a few hours. If you don't believe me, I'll show you then."
Ren Yaoqi was stunned when he heard this. Was the medicine Xiao Jingxi drank every day for detoxification? Could it be that Xiao Jingxi's poor health was not due to a deficiency he had in the womb, but because he had been poisoned?
Although Ren Yaoqi was still very worried, she sensitively felt that it would be better not to continue with this issue.
