Chapter 226 Crisis Begins



Chapter 226 Crisis Begins

Shu He suddenly jumped up, his eyes wide open!

Nanqi was so scared that he stepped back repeatedly and hid behind Beiji, "You can't blame me! Yi'er brought it here!"

"I thought it was some wild fruit, then, then..."

Shu He hurried to check Yi'er's pulse. Baili Moqing's face was gloomy, and even Beiji came over nervously.

"You don't need to be so nervous, right? Yi'er is fine, right? Nothing's wrong!"

Baili Moqing looked up, and a cold gaze frightened him so much that he shrank his neck.

Xiao Yi'er was only two or three years old, her body already fragile from long-term malnutrition. What if that fruit truly had the powerful ability to reshape Nanqi's meridians and dramatically increase her internal strength? If Xiao Yi'er ate it, wouldn't her delicate meridians burst?

The hall was completely silent, so silent that Nanqi didn't even dare to breathe.

After taking the pulse, Shu He was silent for a moment, then ran out.

Nanqi was stunned when he saw this, "Hey, where are you going?"

When she came back again, Nanqi was hiding behind a pillar, his face full of grievance.

When Beiji saw her come back, he quickly stepped forward and asked, "How is Yi'er? Is everything okay?"

Shu He was holding a jade box in his hand, which was specially given to him by Baili Moqing to store precious medicinal herbs.

Shu He said, "Not only is he fine, he's actually in very good condition!"

Hearing that Yi'er was fine, Nanqi finally breathed a sigh of relief and grew a little bolder. He walked out from behind the pillar and came over, "I told you it was okay!"

Yi'er is fine, which means he didn't get into trouble!

Don't be afraid!

Shu He placed the jade box on the table. After opening it, the whole hall was filled with a rich fruity aroma, which made people swallow their saliva.

"You still have so many!!" Nanqi looked at the fruit with his eyes wide open.

In fact, there weren't many. She had picked eight, one was tricked away by Su Lanzhi, Yi'er and Nanqi ate two, and finally only these five were left.

"Yier's health..." Shu He paused, an unnatural look flashing across his face. "Yier's health was very poor before. Even if she takes good care of herself, it will take a long time to slowly recover before the physical fitness gap between her and her peers is narrowed."

"But just now, I discovered that her internal organs, tendons, meridians, acupuncture points, and various physical indicators are more than ten times, or even dozens of times, higher than those of ordinary people!"

"Her heart, liver, spleen, and other organs are all incredibly strong!" She picked up a fruit, her eyes sparkling. "I feel like this is the cause."

Nanqi wanted to touch it, but Shuhe slapped him back.

He stared at her, wanting to be angry but not daring to. Finally, he snorted coldly, "Do you need to feel this? Isn't this an obvious fact?"

Shu He couldn't help but glare at him, "How dare you speak! Today, luckily, this thing is non-toxic and has no side effects. If it were anything with even a little side effect, Yi'er would be in big trouble!"

"If you dare to feed Yi'er something you don't recognize next time, I'll skin you alive!"

Nanqi shrank his neck and stepped back, thinking that this woman was so fierce!

But he felt both annoyed and aggrieved. He knew that he had indeed not considered the matter carefully and that he was responsible. But he really couldn't be blamed entirely!

What should I do if I feel like crying?

Seeing him like this, Beiji patted his shoulder and comforted him, "It's okay, luckily nothing happened this time, just be careful next time."

Seeing that his expression had improved, he turned to Shu He and asked, "Are you planning to do an experiment?"

Shu He raised her eyebrows, gave him a thumbs up, and praised, "So smart!"

Beiji is really smart and can always understand what she is thinking.

That night, Shu He experimented on Zhang Zhirou and Yang Daya at the same time, and the results were pretty much as she expected.

This thing can reshape the human body. The greater the damage, the greater the effect. If there is no problem with the body, it will not be effective after taking it.

Zhang Zhirou and Yang Daya both recovered almost at the same time, which could be said to be a "resurrection from the dead" effect!

Upon discovering this, Shu He immediately locked up the fruit.

This is a treasure! The remaining three fruits can save three lives at a critical moment, so you must preserve them well!

The night was deep and all was quiet. Beisha City, covered in snow, was once again shrouded in a blanket of white, as if entering a world of ice and snow.

In the north city refugee camp, the biting weather forced the refugees to huddle together in their tents. Their living conditions were too poor, and the thin tents were barely enough to keep out the cold.

In one of the tents, a woman, feeling extremely cold, wanted to hug her man closer for warmth. But to her surprise, when she placed her hands on him, they felt like stone, cold and hard, with no warmth at all.

She suddenly opened her eyes and found that the person she was touching was her own man. In an instant, fear flashed in her eyes and she let out a sharp and miserable scream.

The entire refugee camp was awakened by this scream. Immediately afterwards, several more screams were heard from other tents.

"It's dead!"

Someone in the camp rushed out of the tent wrapped in clothes and shouted.

"Someone's dead! Help come quickly!"

In the darkness, the faint candlelight flickered in the vast camp, weak and threatening to be blown out by the wind at any moment. The air was filled with panic, as if a sense of crisis was spreading among the crowd.

In the third courtyard of the Princess's Mansion, the lights were brightly on, and a furious voice rang out in the inner hall of the courtyard.

"A bunch of trash!"

"A bunch of trash!!"

Following the sounds of several porcelain shattering, a calm and peaceful male voice sounded.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

Inside the hall, a man in black knelt on the ground. Before him stood a man in a dark blue brocade robe. Beneath a top-grade Wen Sangyu crown lay a delicate and handsome face. His almond-shaped eyes, slightly tilted upward, still shone with a hint of allure, even in his fury.

This person is the ninth prince of Tianqi, Baili Moyan.

At this moment, dark clouds rolled in his eyes. "Isn't Qiu Wuji in the top ten of the Tianxiao Ranking? How is it possible that even he hasn't come back?"

The man kneeling on the ground lowered his head and replied in a muffled voice, "In this situation, there is only one possibility."

Baili Moyan could guess what he said next without him saying anything.

He shook his head, unable to believe it. "How is this possible? Back then, I saw him drink the Wujihan Poison with my own eyes!"

"It's a miracle that he survived four years. How could he still have such high skills?"

He didn't believe that the Wujihan poison was an uncurable poison. It was impossible that he was the one who killed Qiu Wuji. There must be other reasons!

"Your Highness, no one in this world has ever lived for more than two years after being poisoned by the Wujihan Poison!"

The man spoke, intending to remind him. The fact that Baili Moqing had been able to linger for four years actually said a lot.

Baili Moyan's face was sinister and cruel, and a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes. "You mean, he has never been poisoned by Wujihan?"

"But Rong Xia, didn't you personally confirm it back then?"

The man on the ground raised his head with a determined expression. A red scar under his right eye made his already stern face look even more fierce.

"Your Highness, I can confirm that Baili Moqing was definitely poisoned by the Wujihan Poison! However, that is no longer certain now!"

Baili Moyan's brows flashed with annoyance, "What exactly do you mean? Speak clearly! Don't beat around the bush!"

Rong Xia lowered her head slightly, hiding all the emotions in her eyes. "The Princess said that there's a female doctor by the Seventh Prince's side. She can easily cure illnesses that even Imperial Doctor Zhang can't."

"You mean, that female doctor cured him of the poison?"

"That's impossible! Didn't Zhang Qiong just check his pulse a few days ago and say he was truly terminally ill?"

"Zhang Qiong was sent by the Emperor. There's no way he could have hidden anything for Baili Moqing!"

Baili Moyan thought this was unlikely. Furthermore, the Wujihan Poison was the most bizarre poison in the world. Even the person who created it didn't have an antidote. How could a mere female doctor possibly break it?

"Your Highness, it shouldn't be difficult for someone with more advanced medical skills than Imperial Doctor Zhang to create a fake pulse, right?"

Rong Xia spoke again, guiding Baili Moyan's thoughts step by step.
