Nan Rongjing walked out slowly from behind the screen, his eyes following the azure skirt that just disappeared at the corner of the stairs, his brows slightly furrowed.
Shen Mutang patted Nan Rongjing's shoulder gently to comfort him.
"Ms. Lin is only a 16-year-old daughter of an official family. It is rare for her to know the antidote to the yellow-striped green snake's venom by chance. It is understandable that she does not understand the poison. Don't be too disappointed."
Nan Rongjing slowly sat down on the chair where Lin Yushu had just sat, and gently sniffed the Biluochun tea that was still warm in the teacup.
"She wasn't telling the truth."
Shen Mutang was stunned and very surprised, "Why didn't I see that?"
Nan Rongjing was too lazy to answer him. Shen Mutang grew up with Nan Rongjing since childhood. He was a boy with a bright personality, but unfortunately his brain was not enough.
Nan Rongjing played with the celadon teacup with his slender fingers. Lin Yushu was really interesting.
Since entering this room, Lin Yushu has not spoken a single true word.
The aura that erupted from the body of a young girl who was abandoned on a farm just now shocked Shen Muting, who came from a medical family, so much that he was speechless.
She understands strange poisons and can trick men older than her into doing things. Lin Yushu is like a mystery, and Nan Rongjing is becoming more and more interested in her.
Knock, knock, knock! Doctor Shen with a white beard knocked on the door and came in, bowing respectfully to Shen Mutang.
"Master, this is the prescription for the detoxifying soup that Miss Lin left behind."
Shen Mutang took it happily, but Doctor Shen's subsequent actions froze his smile.
Doctor Shen took out a thick stack of papers from his arms and said, "Ms. Lin just took these medicines with the medicine card. Please have a look, Master."
Shen Mutang stared at the list of medicinal materials that was a foot long. He was stunned for a long time and couldn't believe it.
"These...these herbs...are they all what she wants to take?"
This will kill her!
Nan Rongjing chuckled.
This smile dazzled the elderly Doctor Shen. How could there be such a good-looking person, even more handsome than his own young master!
Shen Mutang waved his hand to let Doctor Shen go out, feeling indignant.
"If I had known that Miss Lin took medicinal herbs as food, I shouldn't have given her the medicine card so easily!"
Nan Rongjing looked at the list of medicinal materials in Shen Mutang's hand. It seemed that he was right. Regardless of whether Lin Yushu understood the poison, she must be familiar with pharmacology or... to be more precise, toxicology.
Just as he was thinking about it, a sharp pain came from the lower abdomen. Nan Rongjing couldn't help but bend down and cover his abdomen. Sweat oozed from his forehead and his face turned pale.
Shen Mutang noticed that something was wrong with Nan Rongjing, and quickly helped him into the inner room and laid him down.
There were waves of cramping pain in his abdomen, as if his internal organs were being violently stirred by a steel fork, but Nan Rongjing's expression remained calm, only his teeth were clattering from being clenched.
Nan Rongjing's consciousness gradually became blurred in the severe pain, and in a trance, it seemed as if Shen Mutang had fed him a pill.
The pill that entered his mouth was like a cup of water poured into a blazing fire. Before Nan Rongjing could even feel a hint of coolness, the medicinal effect had evaporated completely.
When he was drowsy from the pain, Nan Rongjing realized that this attack was different.
The abdominal cramps became more severe, and it felt like there was a living flame among his internal organs, burning and jumping, as if it would cause Nan Rongjing to burn to death in the next second.
Shen Mutang, who was standing beside him, was staring at Nan Rongjing's abdomen in amazement, and the golden needle in his hand was shaking constantly.
The abdomen was red, as if it had been burned by an iron.
What was different from before was that this time, there was a faint golden light in the center of Nan Rongjing's abdomen.
The golden light flickered, as if there was a living, breathing creature hidden in Nan Rongjing's abdomen, ready to burst out at any time.
Shen Mutang took a deep breath, and with his slightly trembling hands, he tightly grasped the golden needle, and quickly and accurately began to inject the needle into Nan Rongjing's reddened skin.
After an hour of such torture, Nan Rongjing's consciousness slowly recovered. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Shen Mutang standing beside him with a dejected look on his face.
Shen Mutang stared at Nan Rongjing with worry, "Rongjing, there is a golden light! Does this mean..."
Shen Mutang couldn't bear to say the following words.
Nan Rongjing wanted to get up, but the remaining pain in his abdomen made him tremble all over, so he had to lie back on the bed.
Hearing Shen Mutang's words, he smiled instead, looking indifferent.
"It means my time is up."
Shen Mutang's eyes turned red with anxiety. "Leave the capital, I will take you to find my grandfather. He has a way to suppress the disease!"
Nan Rongjing waved his hand weakly.
"Your grandfather has thought of all the possible methods. Although they can suppress the onset of the disease, they cannot cure it."
But suppressing the onset of the disease was not what Nan Rongjing wanted. He was not a person who could wait to die. Even if he was destined to die, he would die on the road to survival!
The poison in his body became increasingly uncontrollable, from the initial dull pain in his abdomen to excruciating pain with each attack. The poison tortured him for a full fifteen years.
And now, golden light appeared in his abdomen, indicating that his life had entered the countdown.
According to his understanding, with each attack, the golden light would slowly move until it reached his heart, and then he would die.
In order to understand the poison in his body, Shen Mutang's grandfather tried countless methods, but in the end he was still helpless.
His hope now lies on Lin Yushu and the mysterious Taoist priest. Nan Rongjing believes that they must have a way to cure the poison that has infected him!
More than a month ago, Nan Rongjing was chasing a fugitive in the woods outside Beijing. When he was about to execute the fugitive on the spot, the poisonous worm in Nan Rongjing's stomach suddenly moved abnormally, but it was not a sign of illness.
Nan Rongjing knew very well the significance of the insect's unusual movements. He looked around hurriedly and saw a dark shadow passing through the depths of the dense forest.
He ordered his men to continue chasing the fugitive, and he turned around to chase the shadow in the dense forest.
In order to suppress the activities of poisonous insects in his body, Nan Rongjing practiced martial arts and his internal strength is extremely deep.
He poured all his internal energy into his feet, but even so, he still couldn't catch up with the man.
Nan Rongjing was only a dozen meters away from the man, and could vaguely see that he was a Taoist wearing a black and white Bagua Taoist robe.
The mysterious Taoist priest had great martial arts skills. He put his hands behind his back, moved his feet slightly, and flew several meters away.
Nan Rongjing shouted towards the mysterious Taoist figure.
"I have no ill intentions. Can you please explain?"
The mysterious Taoist paused for a moment but did not stop. Nan Rongjing took this opportunity to throw a tracking incense at him.
Seeing that he couldn't catch up, Nan Rongjing had no choice but to give up.
Afterwards, Nan Rongjing ordered his men to lead the hunting dogs and start searching for the mysterious Taoist priest in the suburbs of Beijing.
Until a few days ago, traces of the mysterious Taoist were discovered near Qingshan County.
While searching for the mysterious Taoist priest, Nan Rongjing passed by the Qing Lake and accidentally met Lin Yushu, who was being pinched by Li Erma and rolled her eyes.
No matter what secrets Lin Yushu has, he has a way to pry open Lin Yushu's mouth!
