Chapter 390 The ridiculed system
The long voice lingered in Qin Miaoxi's mind, and his hot breath remained in her ears. Every trace of warmth was like a fine silk thread, making her heart tense.
She seemed unconscious on the surface, but in fact she was forced into sleep mode by the system. Thinking of Lu Qingchen's unconditional trust in her and even giving her the only detoxification pill, she had only felt this kind of favoritism from her master and senior brothers and sisters.
Was it just because she married him?
Her heart was pounding. Did that mean he liked her too? But why would he like her?
I was secretly doubting myself the previous second, and was suddenly overwhelmed by joy the next second. The two emotions kept pulling and colliding in my heart, and finally became a sour and bitter feeling, full of anxiety and fear of loss.
She didn't know why Lu Qingchen had the detoxification pill, but if he gave her the pill, did it mean that he couldn't use it? What about his body?
[Tongzi, how long will it take you to fix it?]
[It’s almost there! ]
【Can you let me wake up first? 】
[No, I can’t do this.]
What can you do?
【I can relieve your body from pain. 】
Qin Miaoxi: "..."
"Isn't this my fault? You must compensate me, or I won't live anymore."
Are you threatening me?
This was the second time the system had heard her say this. He was working hard to fix the bug, but she was holding him back. It was so mad at him!
He cursed furiously: "Fine, live or die if you want, I don't want to care about you anymore!"
Qin Miaoxi said calmly: "Well, I hope you can find a good host in the future. Don't make mistakes like this again. It can really kill people."
system:【……】
Seeing her half-dead appearance, the system was completely speechless. In his opinion, Qin Miaoxi really wanted to die. Now she didn't even care about the time she got, so what else could she care about?
[If you change the conditions, I will definitely do it.]
Qin Miaoxi's lips curled up into a faint smile, "Give me a pill that can cure all poisons."
The system jumped up and down and cursed: [I can only increase your life time, but I can't give you any real things.]
[I can't wake you up, I can't give you the antidote, and even saying you'll definitely do it is useless.]
The cold and sarcastic voice stimulated the system, and everything in my mind turned into a chaotic electronic sound, crackling and annoying.
Qin Miaoxi was sarcastic on her face, but she was actually very panicked on her heart. She didn't know whether the system could give her the antidote, but it was better to ask than not to ask. What if the system could give her the real thing?
The system here was completely stimulated, and Qin Miaoxi actually heard a sound similar to panting.
[Okay, here you go.]
Qin Miaoxi's eyes suddenly lit up. It really worked.
Give it to me now.
【After you wake up. 】
[Okay, don't go back on your word.]
[Hmph, I won't give you the chance to look down on me.]
After getting a satisfactory answer, Qin Miaoxi finally shut up as he wished.
Half an hour passed, and she still showed no signs of waking up. Lu Qingchen, who was guarding the bed, became more and more anxious.
Isn't it poisoning?
His pulse was normal and he wasn't poisoned, so why did he vomit blood and become comatose?
His hands were clenched tightly unconsciously, his knuckles turned pale, and even his breathing seemed heavy and stagnant. It was a feeling of powerlessness he had never experienced before. It turned out that it was so difficult for him to save a person.
There was a knock on the door, and Wen Zhu called out softly, "Master, the doctor is here."
Lu Qingchen immediately opened the door to welcome the doctor. "Madam has been unconscious for over an hour now. Can you tell me what's going on?"
This doctor was the best at detoxifying in the city. He nodded in agreement and took Qin Miaoxi's pulse through the curtain.
"Strange, really strange."
The doctor shook his head and muttered to himself, then looked up at Lu Qingchen and asked, "The Marquis's pulse is strong and there are no signs of poisoning. I wonder if the Marquis could tell us what happened before she fell into a coma?"
Lu Qingchen frowned as he recalled what happened. He was not clear about the details. When he saw it, Qin Miaoxi had already started vomiting blood, and she fainted when he took her on horseback back to the city.
"During this period, Madam, have you touched any strange objects?"
"No."
"That's very strange."
The doctor stood up and saluted, "Please forgive me, my Lord. I am unable to treat your wife's illness."
"Are you sure it's not poisoning?"
"I'm sure. Moreover, when I took Madam's pulse just now, I found that there is a medicinal power in her body. Even if she is poisoned, it will be detoxified in an instant."
The doctor looked at Lu Qingchen and seemed to be hesitant to speak. He wanted to ask what magic medicine Qin Miaoxi had taken, but he knew that this was a private matter of the Marquis' Mansion, and it would not do him any good to know too much.
Lu Qingchen waved his hand, signaling him to go out first.
Wen Zhu's heart tightened, "Master, I'm going to find a miracle doctor right now."
"Do you know when he was last seen? A year ago. Do you think you can find him now?"
Lu Qingchen gently rubbed his tense brows, his eyes filled with fatigue. His voice was shrouded in chill as he said, "Go find the Poison King."
"Master!"
Wen Zhu was horrified and screamed frantically in his heart: "Has my master gone mad? It's all the Poison King's fault that he's in this state now. How can I still go to him?"
Qin Miaoxi, who was lying unable to move, was puzzled. What did the Poison King mean? Was Lu Qingchen poisoned?
The next moment, Lu Qingchen roared impatiently, "Go!"
"Master!" Wen Zhu was silent for a while, then hummed reluctantly, "Yes, I'll do it right away."
"and many more!"
Lu Qingchen looked at the bed in shock, and the slender figure slowly sat up.
"Wife, you're awake!"
As soon as Qin Miaoxi woke up, he hugged her tightly, and her head suddenly lacked oxygen.
She slapped Lu Qingchen's back hard, "Let...let me go!"
Lu Qingchen suddenly let go of her and looked into her eyes nervously, wanting to check her whole body carefully. "Are you really okay? Do you have a headache? How's your neck? Can you move your limbs?"
Qin Miaoxi's face flushed red, and she growled through gritted teeth, "Don't take advantage of this opportunity to be frivolous."
"Cough cough~"
Wen Zhu almost choked on his saliva. He was indeed his grandfather, his hands were really quick.
"Wife, I'm checking you out." Lu Qingchen blinked his deep eyes pitifully, accusing her of being cold-blooded and ruthless.
Qin Miaoxi looked up at the sky speechlessly. Just now, her body suddenly broke free from the control of the system, and then she heard him asking Wen Zhu to find the Poison King. Isn't this nonsense?
Fortunately, he was stopped. This guy really does what he wants.
"I'm fine. I probably fainted because I spent too much energy investigating the case recently."
Lu Qingchen looked at her suspiciously, with a look of disbelief.
Qin Miaoxi subconsciously avoided his gaze, but instead grabbed his hand and took his pulse calmly.
Her expression became more solemn, and she took something out of her sleeve and handed it to him, "This is for you."
"This is……"
Lu Qingchen's eyes widened in disbelief. "Antidote pill? How did you get this?"
Didn’t that person say that the detoxification pill is the only one?
Qin Miaoxi said nothing, opened the bottle and stuffed the pill directly into his mouth.
"Hmm, cough cough! Puff~"
The pill melted in his mouth, and Lu Qingchen immediately spat out a mouthful of inky black poisonous blood after swallowing it.
"Master!"
Lu Qingchen raised his hand to stop her, and then he heard Qin Miaoxi continue, "The poison has been mostly neutralized, and it will be completely cleared in half a month. However, he will vomit blood every day after that. Wen Zhu, prepare some more blood-tonifying herbs and food."
"Yes." Wen Zhu's eyes instantly turned red. God knew how afraid he was that something might happen to his grandfather's health.
The joyful footsteps gradually faded away, and they were the only two left in the room.
Qin Miaoxi nodded at him, "Tell me the truth, why did the Poison King poison you? What happened to you?"
