The night passed quietly, and Chen Xuan woke up from the state of closing his eyes early in the morning. After tidying up his clothes, he heard a maid come in, ready to wash things. Chen Xuan simply washed up and waited. Someone came to lead him to Lishan's residence last week.
When the big sun in the east just appeared, Zhou Ruoxue was wearing a pink dress, her whole body became extremely beautiful, with a hint of peach blossom on her face, she walked gracefully to the courtyard where Chen Xuan lived.
"Brother Chen, you woke up, did you sleep well last night?" Zhou Ruoxue blushed a little after speaking.
"Well, let's go!"
"Brother Chen, please follow me. My father is waiting for Brother Chen." After speaking, the two walked out of this courtyard and rushed towards the big courtyard where the Patriarch lived.
Pedestrians on the road respected both of them when they saw them. Although Zhou Lishan was poisoned and no longer took care of family affairs, this subconsciousness was deeply ingrained. When they saw Zhou Ruoxue, everyone called her Miss.
Zhou Ruoxue didn't show any airs at all, she just laughed them off one by one, but she couldn't hide the sadness in her eyes. Seeing her father getting haggard, Zhou Ruoxue could only pray silently.
But after listening to Chen Xuan's words yesterday, it created the scene last night, Zhou Ruoxue devoted herself to save her father.
After a stick of incense, a smell of medicine reappeared in the two people's sense of smell, and the smell of medicine permeated the entire compound, and the surroundings were tightly guarded. After all, he was the head of the family. Cultivating his confidants, Chen Xuan felt that there were many masters around him.
These masters hiding in the shadows did not show up, and they all took their places. The two passed through the rockery in front of them and came to the front of a big house. Zhou Ruoxue knocked on the door, "Father, it's us, you can Come in?" Zhou Ruoxue shouted.
"Okay, come in!" A man's voice came from inside.
Pushing the door open, one sees a large spacious room. The decoration inside is very particular. Various murals and spiritual artifacts have become decorations. a feeling of.
"You guys are here!" Zhou Lishan, who was sitting on the bed, said.
"Father! Brother Chen and I are here. How is your health today? Have you taken today's medicine?" Zhou Ruoxue asked.
Chen Xuan probably had to take a look at the layout of the entire room. There was actually a small formation distributed inside. The layout of the room was arranged according to the nine-square grid. It was a maze without the effect of attacking.
Then Chen Xuan saw a scrawny man sitting on the big bed, that is, Zhou Lishan, the head of the Zhou family whom he had seen in the lobby yesterday. under the robe.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, "Master, it's time to take medicine!" A maid knocked on the door and said.
Then the door was pushed open, and a woman in her thirties came in with a bowl of medicine in her hand.
"Let's put it away, I'll drink it later!"
"Master, hurry up and drink the medicine while it's still hot, it will be cold in a while!" said the older maid who came in.
"I said let it go, let it go, you go out first!" Zhou Lishan said sharply. Then a violent coughing sound came from his mouth.
cough cough cough...
"Master... are you okay!" The two maids who had been serving him in the room hurried up to beat his back, and even Zhou Ruoxue walked over.
"Father, are you okay, why are you getting angry!" Zhou Ruoxue patted his father on the back and said.
"I'm fine, you all go out, just leave Chen Shaoxia alone, tell me, no one is allowed to enter without my approval!" Zhou Lishan's face was gloomy and terrifying.
Zhou Ruoxue took a look at Chen Xuan, and then retreated with several maids.
"Chen Shaoxia, please sit down. What does it mean that Chen Shaoxia told me that this medicine can't be drunk? Now this courtyard is full of my own confidantes. You must have discovered it when you came in. Now you can say it." Zhou Lishan said After everyone went out, they said to Chen Xuan.
"Excuse me, yesterday I had doubts about the poison on your body. Haven't you doubted it all these years?" Chen Xuan asked suspiciously.
"What are you referring to? You said that someone deliberately poisoned me, but I am indeed poisoned, after all these years of conditioning."
"I'm not referring to this. You are right about the poison in your body, but any poison can't harm the strong in the Yuanwu realm. Don't you think it's strange?" Chen Xuan continued asked.
"It's really reasonable for you to say that, but I have been recuperating all these years, and there is no improvement. What you are saying is..." After speaking, Zhou Lishan's face became cold again, and he looked at Chen Xuan.
"I'm just skeptical. I don't dare to draw conclusions. I watched the toxin in your body yesterday. I found that your toxin is a chronic poison, not the erodeable poison you said, but A poison that slowly seeps into your body."
"Chronic poison, I haven't even taken any drops of rice these years. What you are analyzing is that there is something wrong with the medicine itself?" Zhou Lishan glanced at the night medicine that was placed on the table.
"As I said, I'm just guessing. I can't draw a conclusion until I finish examining your body. Today I'll try to see if I can force out the toxins in your body."
"You forced it out? Chen Shaoxia, it's not that I don't believe it. Dozens of elders from Zeng Jin's family teamed up to force out the poison for me, but they couldn't do anything. Chen Shaoxia didn't reach Yuanwu Realm... Don't take offense, Chen Shaoxia. It's not my strength that I despise, it's just me I don't want to waste your energy, but I am also grateful that the young man spared no energy to detoxify this old man."
Zhou Lishan originally thought that Chen Xuan could remove the poison from his body, thinking that there was some way, but he didn't expect Chen Xuan to use his own strength to force it out.
"I said I'll give it a try. Whether it will work or not will only be known after I try it." After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he came to the edge of the big bed.
"Offended, Senior Zhou!"
"Chen Shaoxia is really too polite. You can help me, Mr. Zhou, I can't repay you. No matter whether you can get rid of this poison, I, Mr. Zhou, will take advantage of your favor. If you need Mr. Zhou in the future, just ask."
"Don't have any sense of resistance now. You may suffer some pain during this period. After all, your body is very fragile now, and most of the poison has been eroded, and the body's functions have begun to fail. Maybe an accident may even make you The toxin erodes the whole body in an instant, have you thought about it?" Chen Xuan repeated the powerful relationship.
"Chen Shaoxia doesn't need to say more. Even if you don't detoxify me, it will take a year or half a year, and my life will come to an end. I am here to ask Chen Shaoxia for a favor." Zhou Lishan said to Chen Xuan who came up Said.
"Senior Zhou, please tell me!"
"If my poison can't be cured today, after three days, you lead Xue'er away from this place, and don't come back in the future. Take good care of her in the future. I know she is interested in you. I don't know if Chen Shaoxia can do it. This is also my responsibility." One wish, I hope Chen Shaoxia can fulfill me, a dying person." Zhou Lishan sighed.
"this… "
"Is there any difficulty for the young man? I see that the young man is not a villain. I see a sense of righteousness from the young man. This is also a manifestation of the countless cultivators. So I put Xue Er I'm also relieved to leave it to you, and I hope that Shaoxia can promise me."
Chen Xuan pondered for a moment, recalling the scene last night, then nodded, "I promise you!" Chen Xuan said.
