Seeing Qu Qianning agree, Fu Qiubai smiled: "Thank you, Ning."
Qu Qianning tapped her forehead with a sallow finger and stood up: "Who told you to save my life, just wait here obediently."
After Qu Qianning left the inner room, Fu Qiubai returned to his sassy appearance, which was completely different from when he begged.
Mu Zhiming opened his mouth slightly in surprise, and said with emotion, "The relationship between the county master and the Shaogu master... is very close."
Fu Qiubai explained, "A Ning is actually a knife-mouthed bean and a rotten heart."
Mu Zhiming: "It's only for the county master bean curd."
Fu Qiubai smiled.
Just as he was talking, Qu Qianning came back and supported an old woman with gray hair and trembling.
The old lady was wearing the unique purple-black robe of Qiandu Valley, and her hair was full of unique snake-pattern silver hair accessories. Qu Qianning helped the old lady to sit down in front of Mu Zhiming, and then said to Gu Heyan, "Go out, When Shangguan's mother-in-law helps people detoxify, she doesn't like to be watched by unrelated people."
Gu Heyan hesitated, did not move, and thought worriedly in his eyes.
"What are you doing, you are so worried, are we spider spirits? Will you eat him?" Qu Qianning put his hands on his hips and folded his hands impatiently, "Go, find a place to stay, within three hours, Don't come back."
Seeing this, Fu Qiubai pleaded with the situation, clasped his fists and said, "General, I actually have a ruthless request. I know that you don't want to show off your visit to the southwest this time, but my father has always wanted to see you again. Now I happen to have the opportunity. I don't know if I can invite you. General and I go back to Yuncheng, General, rest assured, no one else will know about this matter."
Gu Heyan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and looked at Mu Zhiming.
"Go early and return early." Mu Zhiming smiled and handed the black half-face mask on the table to Gu Heyan, "Don't worry about me, Master Shaogu has a chivalrous heart and will definitely remove this cold scorpion poison for me."
Qu Qianning: "Humph."
Gu Heyan put on his mask, got up and left with Fu Qiubai.
The cabinet was quiet, and Qu Qianning brought a wooden bowl and placed it on the table lightly. The wooden bowl was filled with clear liquid, exactly the same as the one placed in the outer room.
Qu Qianning handed Mu Zhiming a silver needle: "Prick it yourself, drop a little blood from your fingertips into the bowl."
"Thank you." Mu Zhiming took the silver needle, pierced his index finger, and dripped blood into the bowl.
Just like Fang Cai, after the red blood beads melted into the liquid, they turned into strands of gray-black, like light ink smudged in the water.
Qu Qianning placed the bowl in front of the old woman, who sat cross-legged there, looked at the bowl carefully, and was silent for a long time.
The unknown warm fragrance in the inner room made people meditate. I don’t know how long it took, the old woman slowly raised her eyes. Although her face was full of ravines, her eyes were bright and not cloudy at all. The old woman said slowly: "Young man, you Ah, I've been poisoned twice..."
Mu Zhiming was slightly startled.
Qu Qianning also leaned over with a puzzled look and looked at the bowl of water dripping with blood: "There are two kinds?"
The old woman nodded: "The amount of the second poisonous drink is too small, so you can't see it, Master Shaogu, young man, after you recovered from the poisoning, did you suddenly relapse once?"
Mu Zhiming said quickly: "Yes, just over a month ago."
"That's right." The grandmother said, "You drank the cold scorpion poison, although you spit it out immediately, but the toxin is dormant in your body because of this, but ah, this cold scorpion poison usually does not attack, the reason why you relapsed is because you took it again. After the poison, the cold scorpion poison was forced out again."
Qu Qianning suddenly realized: "So it turns out, I thought the cold scorpion poison in his body recurred because he suffered from lung disease."
The old grandmother smiled kindly: "It doesn't matter, as long as the cold scorpion poison is removed, the young man's body will be fine."
Mu Zhiming was confused.
But how could there be two poisons in his body
Suddenly, a thought flashed in his mind, and he was firmly grasped.
Dr. Kuang had suspected that the Mingqian Longjing he drank at the Xian Wang's mansion was poisonous. Could it be true? !
But Mingqian Longjing is a royal tribute tea, which is extremely rare. Only the emperor can drink it. If it is not the emperor's reward, even Fu Ji'an can't get those tea leaves.
If tea is really poisonous, wouldn't someone want to kill the king? !
The horrific thoughts came to this point, and he thought of the sudden illness of the previous emperor. Mu Zhiming's back was instantly cold, and a thin layer of cold sweat broke out. He hurriedly asked: "Grandma Shangguan, what is the second poison? Can you see it?"
Grandma Shangguan shook her head: "I only know that it's a chronic poison, and I can't tell anything else."
Mu Zhiming: "Then how can I see it?"
Qu Qianning was displeased: "I just need to detoxify you, why are there so many problems."
"Master Shaogu." Mu Zhiming looked serious, "It's a big deal, please don't blame Master Shaogu."
Seeing that he was so serious, Qu Qianning paused for a while, no longer said any more, and looked at the grandmother.
Grandma Shangguan said: "There is a way, it's just..." She hesitated.
Mu Zhiming: "Just?"
Grandma Shangguan continued: "The amount of the second poison in your body is very small. If you want to know what it is, you have to refine your blood."
Mu Zhiming: "What is blood refining?"
Qu Qianning hugged her arms: "In short, it is to take your blood and boil it. As for how to identify the poison after it is boiled, we have our own methods in Qianpo Valley."
After thinking for a while, Mu Zhiming said firmly, "Could there be Master Lao Shaogu and Grandma Shangguan to help me figure out what poison is in my body besides the cold scorpion poison?"
Qu Qianning: "You want to refine blood?"
Mu Zhiming nodded.
"Do you know how much blood is needed for refining blood? Just nod your head." Qu Qianning pouted.
Mu Zhiming: "Master Shaogu please clear up your doubts."
Qu Qianning said: "There's nothing to clear up, the poison in your body, even I can't see it, it means that you need a lot of blood to refine, and..." She squinted at Mu Zhiming, "That general, he can Agree with your blood refining?"
Mu Zhiming was startled.
"Blood refining is fine, but you have to make it clear to the general that I don't want to cause trouble." Qu Qianning said, "If he thinks I persecute you and comes to seek my revenge, wouldn't I have to be punished by him? Annoying."
"Okay... Thank you." Although Mu Zhiming replied, his tone was obviously not as firm as before.
Qu Qianning: "Okay, don't talk nonsense, Shangguan, please help him get rid of the cold scorpion poison in his body."
The twilight is vast, and the crescent moon is in the sky.
Gu Heyan and the county master Fu Qiubai rode their horses from Yuncheng back to the Valley of Thousand Poisons.
Gu Heyan had met the King of Shu Jun during this trip, and Gu Heyan knew that he was terminally ill and was lying on the bed every day.
However, the King of Shu Jun has long been pessimistic about life and death. In his life, he has also been high-spirited, supported by hundreds of officials, and has experienced the situation of the court. In the dying years, the King of Shu Jun was already satisfied to see Gu Heyan, the savior of the Rongyan Army, the coach of the Rongyan Army.
After returning to the Valley of Thousand Poisons, Gu Heyan walked straight to the wooden building.
Not knowing that Mu Zhiming was not in the wooden building, Qu Qianning saw the two coming back, and said, "The cold scorpion poison in his body has been resolved. I ordered someone to take him to the stilted building where the honored guests were entertained in the Valley of Thousand Poisons to rest."
Fu Qiubai then suggested to Gu Heyan: "General Gu, the sky is already dark and the mountain road is difficult to travel, why don't you and the young master who is traveling with you, just rest in the Thousand Poison Valley for one night, and then make another plan, don't worry, Qian Po Gu Feizun does not stay at night, there are few outsiders at night, and the stilted building you live in is located deep in the wooden village, so it is quiet and unoccupied at night, even if you take off your mask and walk around nearby, you will not be seen."
Gu Heyan: "Thank you for your work."
Qu Qianning: "I'll find someone to take you there."
Coincidentally, the guide that Qu Qianning called was the little brother who had been trying to sell medicine to Mu Zhiming and Gu Heyan today.
The little brother did not change his enthusiasm, he was still very keen on selling medicines, he led the way halfway, took out a bunch of bottles and jars from his arms, and winked at Gu Heyan: "Brother, do you want to buy some?"
Gu Heyan: "..."
"Don't be so indifferent, maybe it will be used one day, right?" The little brother dipped the bottle in his hand as he walked.
Gu Heyan: "..."
The little brother said with a dry mouth for a long time without getting a reply from Gu Heyan.
"Alright, let's do it." The little brother was defeated, he put away the messy bottles, and muttered, "It's better for your friend to talk."
"What did you say?" Gu Heyan asked sharply.
The little brother was taken aback by his fierce tone: "Oh, so you are not dumb, it's scary."
Gu Heyan: "What do you mean by being nice?"
Brother: "Your friend bought my medicine, so do you want a bottle?"
Gu Heyan's eyes flickered, his brows furrowed tightly.
In the dead of night, the insects were roaring, and the moon was shining brightly. Mu Zhiming was sitting in a stilted building in the southwest corner of the Muzhai, staring at the white porcelain bottle in his hand.
This building is located in a remote location. There are only tall trees with dense canopies around. The stilted building has been smoked by sulfur wormwood that prevents mosquitoes and poisonous snakes. When you are in it, you can smell a faint medicinal smell.
Mu Zhiming pulled out the cork of the white porcelain bottle and shook the liquid inside. Suddenly, a strong aroma filled his nostrils, driving away the original herbal smell.
Mu Zhiming choked for a moment and hurriedly pressed the cork back.
This medicine has such a strong fragrance that it is actually taken.
At this moment, there was the sound of the wooden ladder being stepped on. Mu Zhiming hurriedly stuffed the white porcelain bottle into his arms and hid it. He looked up and saw that the person was Gu Heyan, and he immediately smiled happily: "Heyan, you came back."
Gu Heyan walked towards him a few steps, staring at the person: "Well."
Mu Zhiming was a little puzzled by him and asked, "What?"
Gu Heyan: "You... the cold scorpion poison in your body..."
"It's resolved." Mu Zhiming said, "It won't happen again. When it comes to poison, I have to say something..."
He asked Gu Heyan to sit beside him, and told Gu Heyan that there was still a poison in his body and his guesses about the origin of the poison.
Gu Heyan never thought that the matter of traveling all the way here to detoxify would involve the emperor and the blood-stealing battle of powers, and he was both stunned and shocked.
Mu Zhiming: "He Yan, Thousand Poison Valley has a way to know what this poison is, but I just need me to refine blood."
Gu Heyan: "Blood refining?"
Mu Zhiming explained what blood refining is.
Gu Heyan said halfway through his words, "No way."
Mu Zhiming's eyes were firm, and he said firmly in an extremely calm tone: "He Yan, this matter is no trivial matter, I have to find out the origin of this poison, I have asked Master Shaogu, the blood loss is just dizziness and weakness for a few days, rest Eat some supplements and you will be fine, it will not harm the body, I must go to refining blood."
