Anecdotes about ghosts

Several people exchanged a few pleasantries with each other, and then Yan Lei took the lead to talk about the treatment of Lu Xiuyuan.

Yan Lei: "When Young Master Sun came last time, he said that he could help President Lu see a doctor. Do you still remember Young Master Sun?"

Lu Ke stayed up for several days and nights about this matter, don't you remember?

But after all, this was the first time that Lu Ke carried out an errand by himself. He was a little nervous, and "coughed" unnaturally: "Of course I remember, but before that, I have a question I want to ask you two."

Yan Lei nodded slightly, and said solemnly: "Please tell me."

Lu Ke let out a "huh" and asked, "Do you really believe that there are evil spirits in this world?"

Both Yan Lei and Lu Xiuyuan were taken aback, even Jiang Mingming couldn't help but sneak a glance at Lu Ke from the corner of his eye, wondering what he meant.

Lu Xiuyuan cleared his throat, looked at Lu Ke lovingly, and said, "Grandpa just needs to trust you."

Lu Ke smiled slightly: "You're being polite—but thank you."

The attitude is still polite and distant.

Although Lu Ke was willing to visit Lu Xiuyuan, it didn't mean that he recognized his identity as a Lu family member. Even though Lu Xiuyuan's answer just now was sincere, but to Lu Ke, it seemed a bit too opportunistic.

However, Lu Xiuyuan's answer just now was harmless.

As if to tell Lu Xiuyuan that he was living well away from the Lu family, Lu Ke continued to chat nonchalantly: "After entering the industry for a long time, it is inevitable to meet all kinds of people. For example, people who believe in metaphysics from the bottom of their hearts, or people like Some are just looking for psychological comfort, so I always like to ask a lot of questions every time, so don't worry about it."

However, from Lu Xiuyuan's ears, he only knew that Lu Ke had been working hard to support himself these years, but it was more distressing.

He was silent for a while: "Grandpa didn't take good care of you, if you would—"

"Grandpa Lu, why don't we talk about this today?" Lu Ke interrupted him, "Your illness is the most important thing right now. It just so happens that I have some clues now, I hope you can cooperate."

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Mingming immediately handed Lu Ke a small brocade box.

The overall color of the brocade box is dark red, with golden lacquer embellishing patterns.

Open the buckle, inside is paved with high-quality bright yellow brocade, and there is a silver needle about seven centimeters long lying quietly.

Taking a closer look, there is a long snake coiled at the end of the silver needle, and its color is darker than ordinary silver needles.

Yan Lei asked doubtfully, "Master Sun, is this?"

Jiang Mingming smiled and replied for Lu Ke: "Oh, this is to prepare for a poison test."

"Testing poison?" Yan Lei raised his brows and glanced at Lu Xiuyuan.

Can Boss Lu's body withstand such careless torture by Young Master Sun?

Lu Ke twisted the end of the snake's head and took out the silver needle: "Grandpa Lu, please stretch out your left hand, and then pull the cuff up to the crook of your arm."

"Here." Lu Xiuyuan did as he was told without saying a word.

Lu Xiuyuan's skin was pale and wrinkled, with almost no flesh, it was full of bones to the touch, and looked shriveled.

Lu Ke held the silver needle in one hand, and pressed Lu Xiuyuan's wrist with the other hand, so that the front of his elbow was facing her.

"Boss Lu?" Seeing that Lu Ke was really going to stab Lu Xiuyuan with a needle, Yan Lei couldn't help but remind him.

Lu Ke immediately let go of Lu Xiuyuan, looked up at Yan Lei, and explained with parting lips: "This is a snake head needle. The tip of the needle is soaked in a strange herb called the fruit of the emperor's house. It has the effect of avoiding evil and testing poison."

Yan Lei asked in surprise: "According to Young Master Sun, is Mr. Lu actually poisoned?"

"It's not sure yet." Lu Ke said, "Besides, this poison is not the same as the general poison you understand, so this kind of needle is needed for testing."

Speaking of this, Lu Ke paused: "Of course, you can also choose to draw blood for me, but the effect is not ideal and errors are prone to occur. Moreover, considering Grandpa Lu's current physical condition, it is really not suitable for another blood draw." Blood test."

Lu Xiuyuan glared at Yan Lei, then looked at Lu Ke again: "Son, you can do it your way, grandpa believes in you."

Yan Lei originally wanted to say something else, but Lu Xiuyuan himself said that, so he couldn't speak again.

Yan Lei sighed slightly, and said to himself: It's fine if nothing happens, if something happens, wouldn't Young Master Sun be the target of everyone's criticism?

Lu Ke pressed Lu Xiuyuan's wrist again, but the hand holding the needle trembled slightly.

Although Lu Ke is studying animal medicine and has related clinical courses, there is no arrangement for this semester. If he really wants to stab someone, he will inevitably be nervous.

Lu Xiuyuan noticed Lu Ke's trembling, and instead comforted him: "Grandpa gets many needles every time he checks up. You're not afraid of needles, you don't need to worry about Grandpa."

"Ah."

Even so, Lu Ke was still very cautious.

The tip of the needle is very sharp, almost without any effort and skill, it directly penetrated into Lu Xiuyuan's skin.

In less than five seconds, the entire snake head needle was quickly blackened at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing this, both Lu Xiuyuan and Yan Lei were startled: "This is?"

Lu Ke took out the silver needle and put it back into the brocade box, and glanced at Jiang Mingming, his face obviously serious: "It seems that our guess is right, it really is Gu poison."

"Gu poison?" Yan Lei asked suspiciously, "Isn't that something that was spread in the Miaojiang area? But Mr. Lu has never been to the Miaojiang area, so how could he be infected with the Gu poison somehow?"

Jiang Mingming: "Who said that you must go to the Miaojiang area to get infected, and they can't be found?"

Yan Lei's pupils shrank suddenly, and he said in surprise: "You mean someone deliberately framed Mr. Lu?"

Jiang Mingming: "Do you know that Gu poison is easy to bind and difficult to unravel? Now is not the time to worry about whether someone framed his grandfather."

Lu Xiuyuan withdrew his arm, but his expression was calm: "Ke'er, Grandpa will be very satisfied to see you in his lifetime. If this disease is really incurable, don't push yourself too hard."

After finishing speaking, Lu Xiuyuan smiled embarrassedly: "Actually, before you came, Grandpa was quite uncertain. I don't know how you have been living these years, but now I see that you can rely on your true talents and learn from others. Grandpa is also very pleased to support himself."

Lu Ke smiled lightly: "Don't say that, I will find a way to treat your illness, but now I need to ask you one thing first."

"You said, it's just that grandpa can do it, and he will do it for you."

"It's not for me." Lu Ke said helplessly, "If you want to detoxify the poison, it's best to find the caster. Because of the need to raise the poison, this person's body will be abnormal every month or a period of time. Your weakness—is there such a person by your side?"
