Chapter 165: Extracting the Gu
Dugui was also frightened. His little flower was usually very obedient and would never attack anyone.
He hurriedly explained: "Your Highness, there must be something about the young master that attracted Xiaohua!"
Xie Shuangbai really wanted to cry at this moment. What could he have that could attract snakes?
He hung on Rong Ye, shivering. He was really afraid of snakes. His whole body went limp uncontrollably and he felt a sticky feeling all over.
He cried out in a tearful voice, "Rongye, please take it away! I'm scared! I'm really scared of snakes!"
Rong Ye hugged him tightly: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm holding you, it's okay, it's okay!"
Rong Ye looked at Du Gui and said in a cold voice, "Put your things away, or I will kill it right now."
Dugui hurriedly gave orders to Xiaohua, but Xiaohua didn't listen to him at all. He went forward to catch it, but was bitten instead.
Dugui was really shocked. His little flower had always been very docile, but why did it bite him today?
Xie Shuangbai, who was hanging on Rong Ye, felt his thighs soften, one leg dropped down, and the purse around his waist fell to the ground.
Xiaohua crawled over immediately.
Excitedly spitting out tongues around the purse.
Dugui was curious and hurried forward to open the purse to see what was inside that attracted his little flower.
He poured out all the contents of his purse onto the floor. There were only a few ounces of silver, a few broken gems, and two transparent beads.
There was nothing strange about it. He picked up a transparent bead casually. Xiaohua suddenly went crazy and climbed onto his hand excitedly, looking at the bead and spitting out its tongue.
Dugui looked at Xie Shuangbai with shining eyes: "I wonder where did you get this pearl from, sir?"
Xie Shuangbai also realized that this was his Lingquan Pearl. He would refine the pearl and save it when he had nothing to do.
I didn't expect that it was this that attracted the little flower snake.
He really wanted to cry but had no tears. He said weakly, "This is what the prince gave me. I'm giving it to you."
Rong Ye did not expose Xie Shuangbai's words, and said coldly: "Take the beads and your things, and get out of here!"
Du Gui wanted to say something but was forcibly carried away by Rong Qi and Rong Yi who were holding basins of water.
Rong Ye looked at Xie Shuangbai, whose face had turned pale, and felt heartbroken. He gently comforted her, "Don't be afraid, it's gone."
But Xie Shuangbai seemed to be frightened out of his wits, muttering, "I'm most afraid of snakes. One summer, I was playing barefoot in the village and stepped on something slippery. By the time I realized what it was, it had crawled up my foot. I'll never forget that feeling."
Rong Ye touched his face and coaxed him, "Okay, okay, don't think about it. It's all in the past. I promise I will never let you get hurt again."
Rong Ye looked at Xie Shuangbai lying in his arms in a daze, and returned to the yard with a cold feeling.
Xie Shuangbai hadn't recovered until the evening.
He sat up dejectedly from the bed. He had a dream last night that he was entangled by a snake.
In his dream, he couldn't escape from a big snake, so when he woke up in the morning, he was still weak all over.
When Rong Ye finished practicing with his sword and entered the room, he saw that he had woken up. However, he looked unwell, so he hurried over and asked, "How did you sleep last night?"
It would have been fine if Rong Ye didn't ask, but as soon as he asked, he remembered his dream last night, his face turned pale, and he felt very uncomfortable.
Xie Shuangbai leaned his head on Rong Ye's shoulder: "I dreamt of being chased by snakes all night. I'm so tired!"
Rong Ye hugged him: "Rest if you are tired. I will accompany you today."
Xie Shuangbai shook his head: "No, there are still many things to arrange, and Mu Ning's poison must be cured quickly."
Rong Ye was a little angry: "It's Mu Ning again, he can't rely on you for everything."
Xie Shuangbai knew that he was worried about her again, "It's not just Mu Ning. If this poisonous insect is not cured, Qin Yan will also be in danger."
Rong Ye was like an ice box emitting cold air at this moment.
He said, "After the Gu insect issue is resolved, you can have a good rest for a few days, and then we'll return to Xiaoshi Village."
Xie Shuangbai nodded obediently: "Okay!"
The poisonous insects were removed after lunch.
Dugui grabbed Mu Ning's hand and cut it, then put his hand into the spiritual spring water basin. Soon, the blood dyed the entire basin red.
Qin Yan felt distressed watching from the side, and held Mu Ning tightly with his big hands.
After a while, Mu Ning felt something wriggling in his blood vessels. He weakly called out to Xie Shuangbai, "There's something in my arm. It hurts!"
"What's going on?"
Du Gui said darkly, "It's okay, it's the Gu worm that's fighting against it."
Mu Ning felt like there were worms wriggling in his blood, and the pain was so severe that he couldn't sit still.
Du Gui seemed unable to feel Mu Ning's pain and still held his hand tightly in the basin.
Qin Yan was moved to tears, but there was nothing she could do but hug him tightly.
He secretly swore that he would tear the person who poisoned Mu Ning into pieces!
Mu Ning suddenly convulsed all over and spat out a mouthful of black blood. Qin Yan was so scared that he looked at him nervously.
Dugui glanced at Mu Ning and said slowly, "You won't die. You'll be well soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, a red worm slowly crawled out from his palm.
Xie Shuangbai felt his scalp tingling and he felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.
Qin Yan was so angry when he saw the poisonous insect that had caused Mu Ning to suffer so much.
Just as he was about to crush the insect to death, Dugui stopped him in time, "Such a good thing, I must keep it."
Qin Yan said angrily: "Give it to me!"
Dugui stared at him closely: "What do you want this for? You don't know how to use it."
Qin Yan said bitterly, "I'm going to use it on the person who poisoned Mu Ning."
Du Gui smiled strangely: "It's easy, give me this bug, I will improve it for you, and I guarantee that it will make that person suffer more!"
Qin Yan let go of his hand when he heard it: "Seriously, don't lie to me!"
Dugui gave a sinister smile: "No matter how much pain someone suffers, I never lie!"
Qin Yan trembled all over. He was indeed a pervert, worthy of being the one in the secret passage.
The poisonous insect was taken away by Dugui smoothly.
He also took away Mu Ning's basin of blood.
Xie Shuangbai felt sick after seeing this, and decided from the bottom of his heart that he should stay away from Du Gui in the future.
Mu Ning fainted due to excessive blood loss. After Xie Shuangbai asked the doctor to bandage him, Qin Yan carried him back to rest.
Once this big thing was settled, Xie Shuangbai's tense nerves relaxed at once.
He fell into a daze and fell asleep.
Rong Ye was so scared that he thought he was sick. Later, he called a doctor, who said that he was fine and just too tired. Only then did he feel relieved.
Rong Chi was also very well behaved today. He looked worried and asked, "Daddy, why is little daddy sick again?"
Rong Ye also wanted to ask, why is his baby so weak?
He looked at Rong Chi and said, "Your little father is weak. You must listen to him from now on and never make him angry!"
Rong Chi didn't understand why his father said that. He had always been very obedient. He blinked his big eyes:
"I listen to my little daddy the most and never make him angry!"
Rong Chi looked at Rong Ye and frowned: "It's Daddy who often makes Little Daddy angry!"
Rong Ye: "..."
The two looked 90% alike, one big and one small, staring at each other, neither of them admitting that they had made Xie Shuangbai angry.
