The queen of the last days became a maid and just wanted to lie down

After hearing what she said, Pei Shuo told Xu Yao not to worry, he would take care of the matter and make sure to find out whether this person was lying or not.

After breakfast, Xu Yao wrote a letter to Nanhai Xianweng. She gave the letter to Pei Shuo: "Send it to Yunhai Escort Agency. The old man said that as long as the letter with this special seal is sent to Yunhai Escort Agency, the people of Yunhai Escort Agency will find ways to notify him. I don't know whether it is true or not, so let's try it out."

The old Taoist priest ran away very fast that day, and now I don’t know where he is. This is the only way I can contact him.

After Pei Shuo left, Xu Yao began to count the days, wondering when the old Taoist priest would appear in the capital.

As a result, after a few days, she did not wait for the Immortal of the South China Sea, but waited for Old Man Qu.

When Old Man Qu appeared in her courtyard, Xu Yao was stunned for a moment, then said, "How did you get so old?"

Old Man Qu rolled his eyes at her and said, "You are such a rude girl. What can an old man do if he doesn't age? If I were to become young again, you would be scared."

Xu Yao smiled awkwardly, saying that she had said something wrong and asked him to forgive her. She was just too surprised. "Why is your hair so white? When I saw you that year, your hair was still quite black. Could it be that the money I gave you didn't allow you to live a good life?"

Xu Yao could remember that he had cheated 20,000 taels of silver from himself alone. This amount of silver was enough for an ordinary person to use for a lifetime.

But Old Man Qu shook his head and said, "How can that little money be enough? I am an old man studying medical books and medicinal herbs. Twenty thousand taels of silver is not enough to fill my teeth."

Xu Yao sighed and said, "You are really a spendthrift, but how did you find yourself here?"

Old Man Qu snorted coldly, "It's all because of you, you dead girl. When you got into trouble, Pei Shuo's whereabouts were unknown, and it took Zhuang Mu a long time to find a clue. We couldn't openly collect your body, so we could only secretly send people to search in the valley. In the end, we found some pieces of clothing and built a cenotaph for you.

You died, the Pei family was gone, and I had nowhere to go, so I worked for Zhuang Mu. He was a ruthless guy, and he was not as generous as you. I ran away in anger and went back to my old job as a veterinarian. Five years have passed in this muddle.

Pei Shuo suddenly appeared out of nowhere and sent me a message, asking me to come to the capital. I came here because I had nothing to do."

If Xu Yao believed him completely, she would be a fool.

The old man was obviously avoiding the important issues and didn't say anything important. However, Xu Yao would not drug him because they were familiar with each other. "If you don't want to talk, then I won't ask."

After all, if he wants to harm me, he has to consider whether he has the ability to do so.

Xu Yao ordered the kitchen to prepare good food and wine to entertain Old Man Qu, but Old Man Qu asked Xu Yao, "How is the poison in your body?"

Xu Yao said that the poisonous insect was gone. Old Man Qu was very surprised and insisted on taking her pulse. After that, he looked at Xu Yao. Although she was not as strong as before, her physical foundation was much stronger than before.

The poisonous insects in his body had indeed disappeared completely: "How did you do that?"

Xu Yao would definitely not tell him about Zhao Xi. She only remembered that after she fainted that day, Zhao Xi came to say goodbye to her.

She said that her wish had been fulfilled and that this body would be given to Xu Yao as agreed.

She also asked Xu Yao to make good use of the money left by her elder sister.

You must live a happy and carefree life to do justice to this body.

Xu Yao agreed readily, and when she woke up, she saw the Immortal of the South China Sea, who was treating her.

The Immortal of the South Sea said that she was lucky and had strong internal strength, which saved her life.

Xu Yao wondered how strong her internal energy could be. It sounded a bit unbelievable that she could survive such a serious injury.

The Immortal of the South Sea said that she had a special internal force in her body, which was different from her other internal forces. That internal force was integrated in her body, so she was able to survive.

Xu Yao took the opportunity to ask him: "Can you find a way to get the poisonous insect out of my body?"

The Immortal of the South Sea shook his head and said that there was no poison in her body.

What Xu Yao was thinking at the time was, could it be that the insect turned itself into flesh and blood, became a new internal force, and merged with her internal force, thus saving her life.

The more Xu Yao thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible, so he told Old Man Qu about this guess.

Old Man Qu listened thoughtfully, "This insect was originally parasitic on you, but when it saw that you were about to die, it couldn't help but merge with your internal energy, so you were able to survive? This means that if you want to deal with this insect, the best way is not to find the mother insect, but to put it in a desperate situation and let it merge with you."

As soon as Old Man Qu slammed the table, he knew that things were not that simple.

Few people have the courage to take the path of risking their lives. If they fail, wouldn't that be courting death?

Not everyone like Yuan Qingzong has the opportunity to use this kind of poisonous insect, and naturally not everyone has the chance to experience what it means to survive from a desperate situation.

"I think the technique you practiced should have played a part. After all, this poisonous insect is very powerful. If your internal energy is not strong enough to conquer it, then it is only possible that after you die, the poisonous insect will come out of your body and look for a new host."

Xu Yao remembered that Zhao Xi said that before her elder sister died, she had taught her internal strength. Is it possible that the insect sensed that the internal strength was being lost and that this host was no longer useful, so it came out of Zhang Yao's body and looked for a new host, and this host was Zhao Xi.

This could explain why Zhao Xi, despite his low status, had such a high-level poisonous insect in his body.

Xu Yao was amazed, wondering what on earth this thing was made of. It was so spiritual, as if it could understand human nature.

Old Man Qu didn't care about all this. He was extremely curious and asked Xu Yao to give him some blood so that he could do some tests.

Before Xu Yao could say anything, Pei Shuo came back and refused to agree at all.

Xu Yao drove the man out directly. "I asked you to come here to see a doctor, not to let my master bleed. If you say such stupid things again, I will break your legs."

Old Man Qu felt quite regretful and said that he would not give up easily. If he got the chance in the future, he would definitely let Xu Yao bleed.

Xu Yao admired the old man's arrogance and madness, so he arranged him next to Xu Sheng and threatened Xu Sheng, "If you don't obey, I will make you his medicine man. This old man is in need of experimental subjects, otherwise you can try."

Just by seeing the appearance of Old Man Qu, Xu Sheng became extremely nervous. He hid in the house and dared not come out, and even threatened Xu Yao.

Xu Yao asked Pei Shuo why he brought Old Man Qu to the capital.

Pei Shuo smiled and said, "Aren't you worried about me, Master?"

"Why should I worry about you?"

Pei Shuo looked at her. "In addition to his skills, the Immortal of the South Sea also has medical skills that are unrivaled in the world. I thought Master was worried about me, so he wanted to bring him to the capital to treat me."

Xu Yao's heartbeat quickened when he looked at her. "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm not well yet. Wait for him to treat me. You're in good health now. You don't need me to take care of you."

After saying that, he turned around and left.
