Chapter 29: Cruel Means



The third butler was recognized and felt ashamed. He covered his face with his sleeves and left with the two guards. He dared not stay in front of the courtyard any longer. As for the poison in his body, he thought it should be easy for the Gu family to cure it. The third butler hated Gu Yao and Chi Changye in his heart and wanted to kill them.

The news spread quickly. Tian Feirong immediately learned that the Gu family had suffered from Chi Changye again. Knowing the appearance of the Gu family when they left, Tian Feirong could not guess the reason. He treasured the poison and antidote given to him by Gu Yao. It was great to use them against the enemy at a critical moment.

This kind of dirty trick was his favorite.

The two guards fell down halfway. The third butler was in a better situation and asked someone to send them back.

When the three were sent to the Gu family's main hall, the people who got the news and rushed over gasped after seeing their appearance. They had never encountered such poison before. Could it be that Chi Changye was using this method again?

"Who is Chi Changye? His methods are so... vicious and cruel!" Gu Zhixiao felt a little apprehensive. Fortunately, his third brother was in charge of this matter. He had to withdraw from it and just wait for Yan'er to enter Changxianmen. That's why he let his third brother jump up and down.

"This Chi Changye couldn't have come from the Demon Gate." Gu Yan looked at him with disgust and stood far away.

The head of the Gu family personally examined the three people, stood up, took the wet handkerchief, wiped his hands, and said: "It is indeed a poison that has never been seen before, the kid is vicious!" There was a flash of displeasure in the eyes of the head of the Gu family. He didn't like anyone challenging his authority and status. "What did you say in the past, and how did Gu Yao respond? Tell the truth and don't make it up. I will send someone to inquire."

The third housekeeper's heart sank, and he quickly told the whole story honestly. To others, it meant that Gu Yao didn't even show up, and they were defeated by Chi Changye alone through the manipulation of the formation. It was a terrible defeat.

"Hmph, idiot!" The head of the Gu family was very angry, "No wonder Gu Yao didn't want to show up, the servants are bullying the masters, the servants are climbing over the masters, get out! Find someone to detoxify them!"

The third housekeeper was disheartened. Even if he detoxified him, he would probably be disliked by the head of the family this time. He would bring the people back just because he didn't do his job well.

The people outside dragged the three people away.

The head of the Gu family also felt displeased with Gu Yao. He knew that they were from the Gu family but still attacked them. This was not a slap on the faces of a few servants, but a slap on the face of the Gu family! Even if he returns to the Gu family in the future, I'm afraid he will be a born rebel.

"Has Gu Yao not been close to anyone in the Gu family these years?"

Hearing the words of the head of the family, everyone in the hall looked at each other, unable to answer this question. Finally, Gu Zhicheng came out and said, "Nephew Gu Yao has been staying in the backyard of the second brother. It is rare to see him come out. I think the second brother and his wife are keeping a close watch on him, so it is difficult to get in touch with him."

This pushed all the problems onto Gu Zhiming and his wife.

"It seems that the child has suffered a lot of grievances in the Gu family, and he is quite angry. This matter needs to be dealt with slowly. There is no need to send a servant like this today, so as not to be humiliated and lose the face of the Gu family. You can go down and think of a solution." The head of the Gu family said after a pause.

"Yes, listen to my father (the head of the family)."

The people in the first room forgot about this matter after returning. There was no need for them to intervene at all. It would be better if Gu Yao did not come back.

After returning, Gu Zhicheng set his sights on his own children. However, as his father said, this matter had to be done slowly. He still had to continue to find out the situation of Gu Yao and Chi Changye. He did not expect that the third housekeeper was so useless. Not only did he fail to do what he had told him to do, but he also lost his position as housekeeper. He still had to think of a way to recommend another person of his own.

The news that the Gu family came again and were poisoned soon spread throughout Yuanyang Town, and those who wanted to make plans temporarily suppressed their thoughts, especially the Lu family. At present, unless a high-level Qi-refining monk took action, sending others would not be good and would lose face. It would be much easier to wait until they left the town than to make a move in the town.

If the Gu family had not taken action first, the Lu family would have been the ones who were poisoned and injured. They, like the Gu family, can make elixirs themselves, so detoxification is easy.

"Have someone keep an eye on the two guys for now. Once they leave the town, have someone report it immediately, and then find out where the two guys got the poison from."

"Yes, patriarch."

Everyone else was wondering about the source of the poison on Chi Changye's hand. Few people thought of Gu Yao, but the leaders of the Tian family knew very well. They had learned from the second young master of the Tian family that the poison was made by Gu Yao for self-defense, and the poisonous grass was collected by the Tian family and sent to them. This Gu Yao is really not simple.

The head of the Tian family said gloatingly: "I heard that the poison in those three guys has not been completely removed yet. If the poison cannot be removed, the Gu family will lose face because of a child from the Gu family."
