Chapter 408 Incentives
The love Gu was too close to her heart, so she didn't dare to take it out easily. This love Gu had a characteristic: the mother and child Gu were mutually reinforcing and restraining, and life and death were connected. If the child Gu sensed danger, the mother Gu would sense it, and the person who put the Gu in would definitely notice it. If it was a matter of life and death, the person who put the Gu in would kill the mother Gu, and the child Gu would die together. The person who was poisoned would definitely be seriously injured, and at best his meridians would be broken, and at worst his life would be in danger.
Seeing that she was still hesitant to take action, Jun Zeqian asked softly, "What's wrong? Is there anything difficult?"
Shang Ruoyi sighed: "This poisonous insect is indeed a bit tricky. If I try to remove it, I'm afraid it will cause some damage to my father's body."
She thought about it, took out a small knife, cut a hole in his skin, and dripped a few drops of spiritual spring water on it. The wound began to heal rapidly.
He gathered all his energy into his pupils and stared at the poisonous insect without blinking. However, the insect didn't even move at all, which showed that the spiritual spring water was of no use to it.
Shang Ruoyi lowered her eyebrows and couldn't help feeling a little annoyed. The current situation was really a bit tricky.
Just then, she thought of someone.
Mr. Ye is from southern Xinjiang and is very knowledgeable about poisonous insects. Maybe he can help.
Jun Luoyun was guarding outside, pacing anxiously. She knew that the genius doctor Lingjun was a skilled doctor, but she didn't know that she was also proficient in witchcraft.
I don't know if she can get rid of this poison.
At this moment, the door opened with a creaky sound, and Jun Zeqian walked out with a gloomy face. Shang Ruoyi followed behind him, also looking a little dejected.
"Forgive my incompetence. Although the poison has been removed, removing poison is not my strong point."
"It's okay. I will think of other ways to detoxify my father." Jun Zeqian said in a low voice, "Thank you for your help today."
Shang Ruoyi bowed and was about to say goodbye and leave, but at this moment, she heard Jun Luoyun say, "Stop."
"What's the matter, Princess?"
Jun Luoyun walked over slowly and whispered, "Did Divine Doctor Lingjun fail to cure father's poison?"
"Every profession has its own specialty. Detoxification is not my strong point."
"Then how did you know that father was poisoned? This princess advises you not to be arrogant and conceited. Don't rely on your medical skills to look down on others. You must know that there are always people who are better than you. Don't think that you are the best doctor in the world just because others compliment you a few times." Jun Luoyun sneered, "Since my brother believes in you, I don't want to pursue it any further. Otherwise, no matter what kind of miracle doctor or young master you are, this princess will definitely hand you over to the government and investigate your background and your true face under this mask."
Shang Ruoyi smiled when she heard this: "Everyone says that the adopted daughter of the City King, Princess Luoyun, is a smart and gentle woman. After meeting the princess twice, I know that the rumors are not credible." Seeing her suddenly gloomy face, Shang Ruoyi smiled wider: "But the word smart is still very accurate. Princess Luoyun is indeed eloquent and can't stand any loss."
"you!"
Shang Ruoyi didn't want to talk to her any more, so she bowed to Jun Zeqian and said, "I have something important to do, so I won't stay any longer. If the prince has any urgent business, you can send someone to the inn to find me."
Jun Zeqian nodded. Shang Ruoyi turned and left. After taking a few steps, she turned back and said with a smile: "Sir, did you hear what I just said?"
Jun Luoyun's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he quickly said to Jun Zeqian, "No! Brother, it's not like that. I'm just a little angry with her. Brother, don't listen to her nonsense."
Jun Zeqian glanced at her, his face expressionless, and said lightly: "Yeah."
Just this one sound made Jun Luoyun extremely surprised. In the past, his brother always ignored him, but now he can actually listen to everything he says. Does this mean that his impression of him is better than before?
How could she know that Shang Ruoyi had specifically instructed her not to alert the enemy before the truth of the matter came to light. They had to find out the real reason why their father was poisoned.
Shang Ruoyi did not return to the inn, but went straight to Chiyu Villa, where Ye Lao was.
"You mean to let me cure the poison of the city king?"
Shang Ruoyi nodded: "That's right."
"I promised you that I would help you train those bastards, but I didn't promise to help you save people." He curled his lips and said, "Besides, I'm not good at witchcraft, so I'm afraid I can't help the city king detoxify!"
Looking at his expression, Shang Ruoyi raised her eyebrows slightly. It seemed that this old man had some prejudice against her father.
"But what's your problem with him?"
Shang Ruoyi's words made him choke, and he pouted and asked, "How did you know?"
"I guessed it," she smiled, "Let me guess again, did they steal into the City Prince's Mansion and get caught?"
Ye Lao's expression became even more interesting. He never expected that his answer would be guessed so completely so quickly.
"Humph, I heard that there was a very beautiful colored oriental pearl in the City Prince's Mansion, so I thought of borrowing it to have a look." He snorted twice, "Who could have thought that the guards of the City Prince's Mansion would be so strict? I didn't even see a single hair, let alone see it. I was discovered and detained by the soldiers as soon as I entered the yard. If it weren't for my cleverness, I might have lost my life." He waved his hand and said, "No, no, I won't go even if you kill me!"
Shang Ruoyi nodded seriously after hearing this: "If that's the case, then forget it." She took out a pearl from her bosom and said with some regret: "If that's the case, I can only give this pearl to someone else."
"Wait!" Ye Lao said loudly: "What does this Dongzhu mean?"
"It's nothing special. Whoever can cure the city king will get this Dongzhu. I thought that with your skills, it would not be difficult to cure a love poison, so I took the deal for you. But since you said so, I also think it's not appropriate for you to do the treatment. I'd better look for someone else!" After she finished speaking, she turned and left.
Seeing this, Ye Lao hurriedly stopped him and said, "Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing? Everything can be discussed!"
"I think we should not discuss it. The City King treated you like this. You sneaked into the City King's Mansion and didn't even let you see a hair. This is really wrong."
Upon hearing this, Ye Lao hurriedly said, "I've thought about it carefully, and I can't blame them. After all, I went to steal, and I was caught as a thief. The City King didn't chop me off directly, which can be regarded as taking care of me."
Shang Ruoyi raised the corners of her lips when she heard this. She knew that this little old man could not be dealt with in the normal way. No matter how nicely she tried to talk to him, he would still act like a fool. He was a typical beggar who still complained about the rotten food. It was very merciful that he was not beaten to death when he went to the palace to steal.
