Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

Chapter 110 Detoxification

After hearing what Gu Qingyuan said, General Gu sent someone to find the golden snake grass that Gu Qingyuan mentioned without any hesitation.

Then, Gu Qingyuan temporarily lost contact with General Gu on the pretext that he had something else to do.

She had said everything she needed to say, and now it was her turn to act.

She came to an open space, which was said to be a forbidden area in the Southern Xinjiang Palace. No one except Chu Zhiyan could step in.

Originally, it was guarded by someone, but because of the war, Chu Zhiyan took many people out, so there were only a few people here.

Gu Qingyuan suddenly appeared and knocked those people unconscious before they could react.

The moment she stepped into the forbidden area, Gu Qingyuan saw black smoke coming out of it. She coughed and waved her hands, trying to make the black smoke in front of her eyes dissipate.

The further they went inside, the more eerie it felt. Gu Qingyuan frowned and quietly took out the flint from his body.

The big gift she wanted to give Chu Zhiyan was to burn all his hard work.

It is said that he used living people to make medicine in order to keep his body in its current state.

He took a lot of medicine, and his eyes changed from black at first to blue and gold.

As for why he wore a mask, Gu Qingyuan thought, maybe that half of his face was too ugly.

After walking inside, the black smoke became thicker and thicker, causing Gu Qingyuan to burst into tears.

It’s almost here! It’s almost here!

Gu Qingyuan endured the discomfort and finally saw clearly what was inside the forbidden area.

There were three furnaces for refining medicine. Three people lit the fire numbly, and the smoke came out from above the furnaces.

The three people who were burning the fire had not noticed that Gu Qingyuan had come over. What they were refining this time was a medicine that could temporarily stimulate the potential in the body. It was a bit like a stimulant, which made people full of energy in a short period of time.

Just give these medicines to the soldiers, and they will not feel tired temporarily and will keep fighting.

But the price is that after the effect of the medicine wears off, these people will become like zombies and their bodies will slowly rot.

Gu Qingyuan's eyes became more and more determined. She came to the front of those people who were still refining medicine. By the time they discovered her, it was too late.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

They looked at Gu Qingyuan with horror in their eyes.

Gu Qingyuan did not answer them. He pressed their heads and stuffed them into the fire.

The fire soon licked their hair and a burning smell came.

There were three people refining the medicine. When they saw Gu Qingyuan pressing the heads of the two men and pushing them into the fire, the remaining one looked terrified.

"Please, lady, let me go. I...I will kowtow to you."

The faces of the two people whose heads were pressed into the fire were burned beyond recognition and looked somewhat terrifying.

"Have you ever thought about this day when you were using living people to make medicine?" Gu Qingyuan asked coldly.

The remaining man kept kowtowing, "It's none of our business. It's Your Majesty. Yes, it was Your Majesty who told us to do this."

Gu Qingyuan grabbed his collar, tied him up in front of his horrified eyes, and then set him on fire.

"When you used living people to make medicine, you should have thought of this day."

Gu Qingyuan watched them being engulfed by the fire. She then burned the things in the stove together. The dazzling flames shot out, but she seemed not to feel the heat.

When everything turned to ashes, Gu Qingyuan wiped his face, which was also black.

She wiped it with her clothes indifferently and walked out again.

Chu Zhiyan will definitely like this gift, Gu Qingyuan curled her lips and smiled.

……

The golden snake grass was not difficult to find, and soon the people sent by General Gu found it.

It looks a bit like bamboo leaves and is not a very conspicuous medicinal herb. After crushing the juice of the golden snake grass, General Gu asked someone to bring a bowl over and feed it to Dongzhi.

Dongzhi looked at the green liquid in the bowl and swallowed it without hesitation.

Even if it was poison, she would drink it without hesitation as long as the general asked her to.

After drinking it, Dongzhi felt that her body seemed to be able to move slowly. A look of surprise appeared on her face and she tried to move her hands.

The golden snake grass took effect quickly. Not long after drinking it, Dongzhi spat out a mouthful of black blood. She wiped the corner of her mouth and could clearly feel that after spitting out the black blood, her body's strength was slowly recovering.

General Gu stepped in and asked, "How do you feel?"

"I'm feeling better now."

Dongzhi smiled, but he didn't look as weak and pale as before.

Afterwards, someone helped her get down from the bed slowly. Except for the fact that her body felt a little numb from lying there for too long, all the uncomfortable reactions on her body had completely disappeared.

Dongzhi was extremely surprised and asked General Gu, "Was what I just drank the antidote to this poison?"

General Gu nodded and said, "It's recorded in the medical book that Qianqiu left behind that Golden Snake Grass can detoxify. I'll have someone find it and give it a try."

She did not reveal the news that Gu Qingyuan was still alive. This was also what Gu Qingyuan had agreed with her. The two of them would work together, and when the time was right, Gu Qingyuan would appear again.

"I see."

Dongzhi let go of the person who was supporting him and walked to General Gu.

"The Southern Border Kingdom has gone too far this time. I'll rest for a while and then I'll go with the general to slay those enemies."

"You're just fine now, so you should stay here."

Dongzhi shook his head, his eyes dim, "I heard that the young master... I want to avenge the young master!"

Even though she had been staying in the tent, she had heard some news about Gu Qingyuan.

The little girl was clearly fine before she left, but now they are separated in the blink of an eye.

General Gu sighed and patted her shoulder.

During the truce, Chu Zhiyan's right eyelid kept twitching. Ever since he vomited blood, he needed to drink blood-replenishing herbs all the time, and his body always felt weak.

This situation had never happened before. He called his men and ordered, "Go back to the palace and see how the medicine is being refined. If it's ready, bring it here as soon as possible."

"Yes."

Those who received his instructions immediately got up and returned to the imperial palace in southern Xinjiang.

He stood up and looked into the distance with ambition on his face.

This time, only success is allowed, failure is not allowed!

He suddenly started coughing again, guessing it was because he had used the Stasis Technique too much.

A face slowly emerged in his mind, the one who was beyond his control.

But he didn't know that Gu Qingyuan had already burned all his hard work.

After the burning, Gu Qingyuan felt extremely happy. He first took himself to the Southern Xinjiang Palace and then imprisoned himself.

You don’t really think you have no way out, do you? Gu Qingyuan smiled sarcastically, looking at the mess on the ground.
