When Gu Xiuwen heard that the sickle had just been used to chop a poisonous snake, his face turned pale.
He rushed over quickly, grabbed Shen Ningsi's hand and was about to suck away the blood that was flowing out.
But the next moment, he was pushed away directly. Gu Hong's face was cold, and he held a pill that he got from somewhere in his hand and stuffed it directly into Shen Ningsi's mouth.
"Hey, what are you doing? What are you giving my mother to eat?"
Gu Xiuwen's face changed drastically, and he staggered and quickly held onto the corner of the table next to him.
I don’t know what’s wrong with Gu Hong. In the past, he knew that he was very strong and would usually restrain himself. But just now, that push almost made him fly out.
"Can I give him something bad to eat?"
Gu Hong rolled her eyes and didn't continue to focus on Gu Xiuwen at all. She looked carefully at Shen Ningsi's expression.
"The snakes in Wanning Village are extremely venomous. You should feel an immediate reaction after taking this medicine. If you feel a cool sensation, it means the medicine is working. No matter how venomous it is, you don't need to be afraid."
Sanyazi had been following behind Gu Hong like a mute, but he couldn't hold it back the moment he saw the red pill.
"General, that was a life-saving gift from His Majesty. It can instantly neutralize snake venom, not to mention the poisonous poison of the snake. Even the poisonous poison of the scorpion can be neutralized instantly. Why did you use it like this?"
Sanyazi was really anxious.
As an outsider in the capital, Gu Hong not only has outstanding military achievements, but also has an outstanding family background.
Anyone with a discerning eye knew that even though Gu Hong was arrogant and rebellious, he would certainly have a bright future in the government. However, his presence was bound to threaten the status of many.
Not to mention those court officials who looked down upon the upstarts, even the group of monsters and demons in the General Guarding the Nation's Mansion were trying every possible means to take action against Gu Hong.
The general had only been in the capital for a few days when many famous swords and hidden guns were already coming towards him. This medicine was given by His Majesty out of consideration for the General's Mansion.
"It is rumored that His Majesty only has three pills on hand, meant to save his life. How could the general use them so casually?"
Shen Ningsi was caught off guard when a pill was stuffed into her mouth. She had already swallowed it. She didn't take it seriously at first, thinking it was just an antidote.
Considering the contributions she had made to Wanning Village during this period, taking an antidote would not be a big deal. She really didn't expect this subject to be so precious.
Shen Ningsi looked at Gu Hong subconsciously, only to see the man immediately kick towards San Yazi with no kick, and Gu Hong's voice was cold.
"Since when have I had to listen to your orders? Now you're telling me how to give people medicine, so are you going to start telling me what to do on the battlefield in the future?"
Looking at Sanyazi's expression of sudden realization, Gu Hong snorted coldly and turned his head away.
He looked at Shen Ningsi with a calm expression.
"Do you feel any coolness?"
Of course there was. The moment Shen Ningsi swallowed the pill, he felt his mouth watering. Even drinking ice water was not as refreshing as this.
only……
"General, how can you use such precious medicine on me so casually? Isn't this a pure waste?"
Shen Ningsi really didn't want to have any deeper involvement with him. After taking this medicine, she owed Gu Hong a favor. How to repay this favor in the future was still a problem. Just thinking about these things made her feel overwhelmed.
Gu Hong immediately frowned, his expression even uglier than when he was scolding San Yazi just now.
"Don't listen to that kid's nonsense. How can he remove any drug from my body? It's not a life-saving drug, it's just an ordinary detoxification pill."
Gu Hong glared at Sanyazi again, only to see that the man had not yet recovered from his shock, and the look of regret on his face had not yet subsided.
"Look at what you've done. You've made Madam worry by talking nonsense. I've received so many rewards in the capital. How could you possibly know what medicine I have on me? You knew what I fed her just by looking at her?"
“…”
Sanyazi was speechless for a moment.
The reward was indeed a lot, but there were only three such precious medicines in the world. How could he not have looked at them carefully?
All the other pills were pitch black, but this pill had gold powder around it.
"General, I was indeed mistaken just now. I hope Madam will not mind."
Shen Ningsi clenched her fingers slightly at her side. Her original goal was to take good care of the whole family, so that everyone could have meat to eat every day, so that Xiu Wen could go to the capital to study, and Xiu Wu could stay under the best master.
Now, I don’t know how to repay this favor. If the emperor regards it as a priceless treasure, how can the gift he gives me not be precious?
As if he had guessed why Shen Ningsi was silent, Gu Hong just looked away without showing any expression on his face.
"Don't even think about repaying my favor. It's not a precious thing, just ordinary snake venom. How can I give you a life-saving pill? If you really want to repay me, go home and cook me two delicious meals."
Looking at Gu Hong's expressionless face, Shen Ningsi blinked. Could it be that she was really too sensitive and thought too much?
"General, are you serious?"
You know, Shen Ningsi originally thought that Gu Hong would definitely use this matter to coerce and bribe her into marrying him.
The result is that the problem can be solved by cooking two meals?
"I'm a man of unchanging name and surname. Once I say something, I can never take it back. This isn't a precious thing to begin with. How could I pretend it's a gift from the Emperor to get you to marry me?"
Gu Hong snorted lightly, "Although you have already pledged your love to me, I still cannot ask you to stay by my side peacefully from now on, and not hold you accountable for your past mistakes."
Listening to Gu Hong's sarcastic voice, Shen Ningsi finally let out a breath slowly. According to her understanding of Gu Hong, this should be true.
"Hey, how come you guys are so fast?"
The villagers around did not hear the conversation between the few people, they could only see that Shen Ningsi's face, which was originally a little panicked, suddenly calmed down.
It was obvious that what Gu Hong fed Shen Ningsi was life-saving.
"There's no need for an antidote for this. At best, it's just some rat snakes. Just find some hemp and apply it to the wound. It's nothing serious."
Gu Hong twitched his lips slightly, "If it weren't for a pill, this general would be able to rest a little easier."
He walked to the side, looked at Shen Ningsi and said loudly.
"I'm standing right here. If you don't let me take action, I won't move. But at least this place can guarantee your safety."
