Chapter 401 I'm just doing this for nothing!
Seeing that he looked at a loss, Ran Qingxuan comforted him while flipping through the book he brought out from the dark room.
"Don't worry too much. The Moon God Cold Pill can immediately cure the poison you've been poisoned with. I'll prescribe some more medicine for you later. Your physical condition will get better after a while."
Seeing that she was looking at it seriously, Duan Yi temporarily suppressed his doubts and waited quietly.
“Found it!”
After two cups of tea, Ran Qingxuan pointed at the opened page with a look of surprise.
"This must be the poison you were poisoned with. It's a clue!"
"A thread of connection?"
"It doesn't sound like poison..."
Gu Yanchen leaned closer to look at the portrait on the paper. He had just said that it did not look like poison, but after seeing it clearly, he immediately became speechless.
"You know what, this poison really lives up to its name..."
"A thread connects. After taking this poison, it will quickly flow through the meridians to the heart, spreading from the arm at an extremely slow speed until it connects to the tip of the left ring finger..."
Duan Yi was so shocked that he didn't dare to breathe, but at the same time he was happy in his heart.
"This poison can control people with normal thinking and use it for its own benefit. The poison takes between five and seven years to take effect."
Having said that, Gu Yanchen frowned obviously.
"After taking this poison, the person will become weaker and weaker, pale and extremely afraid of cold. In addition to the fixed antidote, Moon Goddess Cold Pill and Ice Grass can also cure this poison."
Duan Yi's body, which had been feeling cold for a long time, began to warm up after taking the Moon Goddess Cold Pill. Seeing this, he didn't know whether he was scared or really hot, and he reached out to wipe the sweat that had flowed to his temples.
"Good fellow, I just said that reading more books is good for your health."
After Ran Qingxuan moved these things away, he flipped through them casually. When he saw the "shrimp thread" in his hand, a flash of inspiration came to his mind, and he immediately remembered that he had accidentally flipped through it.
But at that time she didn't know what the Moon Goddess Cold Pill was. In order to prevent any unexpected accidents, she had no choice but to give Duan Yi one first.
Without caring about anything else, Duan Yi pointed at a sentence in the book and asked in confusion: "Five to seven years, this is impossible, right?"
“I also think it’s a bit impossible.”
"What's impossible?" Ran Qingxuan looked at the two of them and asked.
Duan Yi tapped the time with his bony fingers and said with certainty, "I started to experience the symptoms when I was fifteen, and ten years have passed since then. How could I still be alive?"
"It's been ten years?"
"Yes, it has been ten years indeed!" The affirmative answer came from Gu Yanchen's mouth, and Ran Qingxuan naturally would not question its truth.
Signaling Duan Yi to pull up his sleeves again, Ran Qingxuan repeatedly checked his arm and the icons drawn on the book.
"No, that's not right. The fourth diagram in this book is exactly the same as the one on your arm now, even the length is marked. This proves that you have only taken it for four years!"
"This... This is impossible..."
Seeing that he still didn't believe it, Ran Qingxuan took out a tape measure and measured him on the spot.
"Well, if what I said is false, the introduction in this book should be correct. It takes five years from the elbow to the radius of the wrist. Your time is exactly short of five years!"
Duan Yi was speechless now. He couldn't understand how the poison had been put into his body when he was fifteen.
"Could it be Qi Jing... or Emperor Mingde..."
Ran Qingxuan opened his mouth and muttered something.
The matter was too complicated, and Ran Qingxuan couldn't guarantee whether one of the two people was the culprit.
Just as she was daydreaming, Duan Yi suddenly stood up with his eyes wide open as if he had suddenly realized something.
"What are you doing?"
"I think...I know why I was poisoned!"
Duan Yi finished his words in a daze and sat back down again, looking a little dazed.
Ran Qingxuan and Gu Yanchen looked at each other, somewhat confused about what he meant.
He only spoke incoherently, "After my father and I knew Qi Mingjing's identity, we were looking for an opportunity to get close to him.
Later, because the Qi family was short of manpower due to the expansion of the medicinal fields, and my father's disabled soldiers had nowhere to go, they went to the Qi family to negotiate.
After a few visits, our two families became familiar with each other. I was still young at that time, and I would come to find Qi Minghe and Qi Huan from time to time under the pretext of having fun. ”
It seems that the father and son have put in a lot of effort to avoid being discovered.
Ran Qingxuan felt that they had achieved this and had lived up to the instructions of Gu Yanchen's father.
"After a while, we became familiar with each other, and I found an opportunity to get close to Ming Jing. He was originally very reluctant to be seen by strangers in that state..."
Speaking of this, Duan Yi's eyes were filled with pain.
“Although there is a generation gap between us, we are of the same age after all. I understand what he has been through so I have no fear at all.
Later, he opened his heart to me because he was tortured by a physical illness and was in so much pain that he wanted to die and refused to take medicine..."
At this point, Ran Qingxuan and Gu Yanchen immediately guessed something, but Ran Qingxuan's expression was more subtle...
"You mean, in order to make him drink the medicine, you..."
"Yes, I tried to persuade him for a long time, and finally when the medicine was served, he drank it himself and joked that it was not bitter..."
"Uh..." Ran Qingxuan's face instantly turned red for some reason. She almost thought that Duan Yi had taken measures to force him to drink it...
As for how to fill...
Well, she admitted that she was wrong...
However, when he turned around and met a pair of shocked and speechless eyes, Ran Qingxuan almost found a crack in the ground to crawl into.
"You..." Gu Yanchen was about to speak when Ran Qingxuan immediately covered his mouth with his hand.
"So what you mean is that you drank Qi Mingjing's medicine and then this happened, right?"
"Yes, I looked like I was seriously ill at the time. To prevent Ming Jing from getting the disease, I didn't visit him for two months."
Gu Yanchen reluctantly pulled her hand down and agreed, "I don't think Qi Mingjing looks like he's been poisoned. Could it be that the poison in his body has already been cured?"
Duan Yi felt his body slowly warming up, so he took off his thick cloak and leaned back.
"I think it's because of the ice grass. Although ice grass is not easy to obtain, Cangzhou is right next to Hanshan Mountain, so there's a small chance that you can pick it."
"When I was recuperating at home, I heard that the Qi family had obtained a plant of ice grass. I think in order to prevent the same confusion from happening again, the Qi family had already mixed it into the medicine for Mingjing to eat."
"I think the poison in Mingjing's body must have been cured at that time."
Ran Qingxuan was speechless, holding his head and said, "This is simply a stupid trick. Not only was he caught in the crossfire, but he was also offended for so long. Fortunately, this poison is not an immediate killer."
Regardless of who could have poisoned Qi Mingjing, the person who could have done this to Qi Mingjing must have been Qi Jing or Qi Guang.
Anyway, anything related to Qi Mingjing will be blamed on these two people!
Duan Yi smiled bitterly upon hearing this: "I didn't expect that the 'disease' that has tortured me for so long was caused by myself..."
