roccoschili Chapter 148 Poison
Chapter 148 Poison
I watched Floating on Water several times.
Rong Su roughly understood the meaning of each word, but it was difficult to understand them when they were organized.
It was as if I had fallen into another world of heavenly books, where the contents were obscure and difficult to understand.
The energy is gathered in Dantian and then distributed through the five meridians and eight vessels.
Then, Rong Su rubbed his temples and suddenly felt a headache and a stuffy feeling in his chest.
Something is wrong. I've only read the book a few times. There's no reason to feel this way. This feeling is like being poisoned.
When she thought of this possibility, she immediately stretched out two fingers and placed them on her pulse, and took a look. This is it!
"Qi Jue Dan. Ha."
Rong Su calmly got up from her seat, endured the pain in her chest and head, and rummaged through the medicine box.
He found a dark purple porcelain bottle, poured a pill into his palm, tilted his head back and swallowed it.
Then he raised his eyes and glanced at the cup of tea on the table.
She walked over, pulled out her hairpin and touched the surface of the tea.
When I took it out again, I saw that there was a black spot on the bottom of the hairpin.
He took the hairpin, placed it under his nose, sniffed it, and squinted his eyes.
That’s right, it was the Qi Jue Pill. This was the first poison she developed, and it was also the poison that the Poison Sect sold to the outside world.
She couldn't help but laugh to herself. It was ridiculous that the poison she developed would be used on her own hands one day.
She stared at the cup of tea on the table with cold eyes. Who poisoned her?
Could it be Rong Yingxin?
But given Rong Yingxin's current status and identity, there is no need to use poison to kill her. She just needs to find more killers and she will be no match for them.
But who else?
Unable to figure it out, Rong Su finally sent a message to Aku again.
A whistle was blown and a fat head flew in from the window.
It flew onto her hand and seemed to be rubbing against her hand happily.
She patted her spotted fat head and smiled.
She had wondered before why Fat Head could fly to her side every time she wanted to send a message to him. After asking Aku, she found out that there was more than one Fat Head.
Fathead is a pigeon organization, Aku said, they are everywhere and are his eyes and ears.
After folding the letter and tying it to Fathead's paw, Fathead asked her for food, then twisted his little butt, spread his wings and flew out of the window.
There was a knock on the door suddenly.
"Asu."
After hearing Gu Yun's voice, Rong Su closed the window and went over to open the door.
When she saw Gu Yun, she was a little surprised that he came to see her at this time.
On weekdays, Gu Yun would go to the temples in the suburbs to help the monks distribute porridge and charity. It seemed that Gu Yun knew the abbot of the Dongdu Temple.
"Is something wrong?"
Gu Yun looked at Rong Su's bright and beautiful eyes, and he couldn't help feeling a little nervous. But when he thought of what Miss Yulan said, if you want to win a woman's heart, you need to treat her well first, and then start from her preferences.
Asu likes to develop poisons. Perhaps he has some advantages in pharmacology and can help her develop them.
"I heard from Yu'er that you've been researching medicine in your room these days. I figured since I have nothing to do anyway, I'd like to help you."
When Rong Su heard these words coming out of Gu Yun's mouth, she looked at him in surprise and asked uncertainly, "You know what I'm developing, right?"
Seeing her reaction, Gu Yun thought that she didn't like his proposal. He felt a little disappointed and lowered his head slightly.
"A Su, do you think I'll get in your way? If so, just let me stand aside and help you. I won't get in your way."
Uh, Gu Yun showed such an aggrieved expression, and Rong Su was a little confused for a moment. He seemed to have misunderstood what she meant.
With a shallow sigh, Rong Su raised her head and looked at the sad-looking Gu Yun, saying calmly, "I made the poison that you have always disliked. So, will you help me too?"
After she finished speaking, Rong Su felt that her words were so clear that he couldn't possibly not understand what she meant. She would not practice Gu Yun's way of being a kind person.
She may have a conscience, but that doesn't mean she is a good person, nor will she be a good person.
Because in her previous life, she was a good person but she didn't have a good ending.
Gu Yun was slightly stunned. He raised his head and looked at her. He actually showed a relieved expression. He smiled and said, "I know what you made. But I also know that the poison you made is not to harm others, but to protect yourself."
She was a little surprised as she looked at Gu Yun who smiled kindly at her. Her heart felt slightly warm, and she felt a sense of being understood.
"Then can I help you, Asu?" Gu Yun asked again, looking at her with extremely expectant eyes.
Since the request was so earnest, Rong Su couldn't just refuse the person who came to work for her, and the master of pharmacology who could be hired for free.
She made way for Gu Yun to enter.
Gu Yun smiled slightly and was about to go in when Shi Tou suddenly came to find Rong Su. Seeing Gu Yun, he was stunned for a moment, then he understood.
"Miss Rong. The master knows that you will definitely forget to eat while developing the poison, so he asked me to deliver it to you on time." Shi Tou stood by the door holding a food box.
The moment Gu Yun saw the stone, his expression changed slightly. His gentle eyes gradually became colder, and his tone was not as gentle as before.
"Brother Shitou, I remember that Asu's meals are usually delivered by Yu'er."
Shitou lowered his head and said without thinking, "I saw Miss Yu'er had to rush to the temple to help and deliver food to Miss Rong at this time. So I offered to help."
As soon as these words came out, Gu Yun's face turned bad. Just as he was about to say something, Shi Tou seemed to have guessed what he was about to say and immediately interrupted him with words.
"Doctor Gu must be going to the temple to help at this time. Why don't you go first, Miss Rong, please." Shi Tou looked at Rong Su while holding the lunch box.
The aroma of the rice was about to drift into the house. Rong Su had actually only eaten one bun for breakfast, and she was indeed hungry at noon.
She said to Gu Yun, "Gu Yun, go and do your thing first. I can handle my own affairs."
As she spoke, she gestured to Shi Tou to put the lunch box on the table. After Shi Tou put it there, she considerately placed the food in the lunch box one by one on the table.
Seeing that Rong Su was no longer paying attention to him and had ordered him to leave, Gu Yun clenched his fists and a hint of gloom appeared in his eyes.
Shi Tou clearly noticed Gu Yun's mood change, but he came here with a mission from his master, so he could only speak again despite the frustration of offending Gu Yun.
"If Doctor Gu doesn't go to the temple, the monks there might be too busy to handle it. There are also many needy people waiting today."
Gu Yun frowned, his fists clenched so tightly that veins were exposed, but when he met Rong Su's puzzled gaze, he lowered his eyes, not wanting her to see him like this.
"A Su, I will come to help you when I'm done."
"It's okay, go ahead and do your work." Rong Su didn't mind this at all and waved her hand casually.
Gu Yun pursed his lips, feeling a little sad. He glanced at Shi Tou coldly and left.
Shitou secretly reached out and patted his chest, sighing in his heart. It was really difficult. He actually offended Yu'er's brother.
After finishing the meal, Rong Su looked at Shi Tou who was packing up the lunch box, thought for a moment, and then asked:
"Has your master already approached Dongdu Tianshi?"
Shi Tou, who had just packed up, was stunned when he heard Rong Su's words. He was surprised. Has the master told Miss Rong even this?
When Rong Su saw Shi Tou's slightly surprised expression, she realized that what Shen Peiqing did must be secret.
After thinking for a moment, she changed her posture and looked at Shi Tou with a serious expression: "Your master is cooperating with me now. I have the right to know what he has done."
Shitou was slightly surprised and put down what he was holding, as if thinking about something. Then he bent down and whispered something to her.
Upon hearing this, Rong Su was slightly startled and looked at the stone with disbelief.
Shitou saw her surprise, smiled slightly, and said helplessly: "Miss Rong, please help me explain to the master when the time comes. The master strictly forbids me to tell these things to others. However, I took it upon myself to think that Miss Rong was ours."
After hearing this, Rong Su immediately looked at Shi Tou with an appreciative look. She liked to hear what he said. She liked people who worked with her to be more sincere to her.
But Shi Tou didn't think the same as Rong Su. He told Rong Su about Shen Peiqing's affairs only because he thought Shen Peiqing might not hide it from Rong Su.
But now that he had said it, he felt a little regretful. He should have let his master tell Miss Rong in person.
But what’s said is said, and there’s no regret medicine or time turning back.
"Okay. Don't worry, if Shen...Aqing asks, just say that I forced you to tell it." Rong Su guaranteed for Shitou.
Shi Tou looked at Rong Su with gratitude, and also keenly noticed that Rong Su had changed the way she addressed Shen Peiqing. He immediately thought to himself that it might not be a bad thing for him to tell Miss Rong about his master's affairs.
Now Miss Rong no longer calls her master's name so unfamiliarly.
We must tell the master about this as soon as possible!
Rong Su had no idea what Shi Tou was thinking, but she didn't want to know, so she waved her hand and let Shi Tou go and do other things first.
Then she hid in the room to develop a new poison.
Soon, within a day, Aku sent her a letter through Fat Head.
After reading the letter, Rong Su found out that the people who purchased the first-grade Jiuhong and Qi Jue Dan were from two families.
One is Lin Youcai, a famous wealthy businessman in Dongdu, and the other is Li Fugui, a salt merchant in Dongdu.
On the surface, these two people have nothing to do with each other, but it just so happens that one day every month they go to the largest brothel in Dongdu - Zuiyanlou to drink and have fun.
Coincidentally, someone who had some connection with Ning Wang Xuanyuanzhi would frequent Zuiyan Tower for a few days every month, and these times also coincided with the times when the two people who purchased the poison frequented Zuiyan Tower.
Of course, Aku said it was not easy to find this information.
Xuanyuan Zhi was a somewhat cautious person, and he deliberately separated his relationship with this person on the surface. Although this person was apparently neutral between the forces of the two princes, he had actually secretly defected to Prince Ning.
Holding the information in his hand, Rong Su raised a sinister smile: "Xuanyuan Zhi. If I remember correctly, he was the one who ascended the throne in Dongzhou in his previous life. It's a pity that he offended someone he shouldn't have offended."
Silently holding a grudge against Xuanyuan Zhi in her heart.
But there is one thing that is very strange. Xuanyuan Zhi didn't know her, so why did he buy poison to kill her?
Suddenly, this became a suspicious point.
Puzzled, Rong Su decided to wait for Shen Peiqing to come back, then tell him the relevant information and analyze it further.
And now in Prince Ning's Mansion.
In a study, Xuanyuan Zhi received a report from his subordinates that he had not succeeded in poisoning Rong Su.
Upon learning of this, Xuanyuan Zhi flew into a rage and slammed the table, shattering the teacups all over the floor.
"The things from the Poison Sect are just garbage! You guys said the poisons from the Poison Sect were the most powerful poisons in the world, what's going on now?"
The people kneeling on the ground were trembling, not daring to look up, and their voices were trembling.
"...Yes...Yes, I didn't expect this woman to be able to detoxify..."
With a bang, a teacup hit the forehead of the man kneeling on the ground, and the man's forehead was instantly covered in blood.
I didn't even dare to cry out in pain, I could only grit my teeth and bear it.
"Waste! Someone, take care of it!"
"No! Your Highness! Please give me another chance! Please! Ugh!" The man was horrified and begged for mercy in fear. Before he could finish his words, he was pinned down by two martial arts masters, and a handkerchief was stuffed into his mouth, making him unable to speak. He was dragged out forcibly.
At this time, a woman in a light pink dress came out from the inner room, twisting her waist and posing coquettishly, with a veil covering her face.
"I told you, Rong Su knows medicine. How could a small poison possibly harm her?"
As soon as Xuanyuan Zhi saw Rong Yingxin, his originally angry expression instantly turned into a smile, and there was a hint of lust in his eyes as he looked at Rong Yingxin.
"Lady Fengnu, that's right, that's right. I just wanted to share your worries. Since this woman has been bothering you, you might as well kill her right away."
Rong Ying also wanted to do it, but she couldn't do it herself, nor could she ask others to do it through her instructions, otherwise she would be punished by the system.
The hateful system always uses the laws of this world to hinder her!
"Don't worry about this person, I will always find a way to deal with it. The most important thing right now is to let you sit in that position as soon as possible." Rong Yingxin was actually fed up with Xuanyuan Zhi's disgusting look. If it weren't for the mission, she would definitely be the first to deal with him.
When it comes to the throne, Xuanyuan Zhi still dares not neglect it. He puts away his playful smile and becomes serious: "Lady Fengnu, don't worry. Fifth brother will definitely have a big surprise for father's birthday banquet this time. And he will lose father's trust very quickly."
After saying this, Xuanyuan Zhi suddenly revealed a sinister smile.
Rong Yingxin sat in her seat, playing with her fingers, with a hint of amusement on her face: "Oh, in that case, I'm looking forward to this surprise."
"Please look forward to it, Lady Fengnu." Xuanyuan Zhi smiled sinisterly, his face full of confidence.
In the Dali Temple dungeon.
Shen Peiqing managed to sneak in with great difficulty.
Finally, he met King Jin'an when the guards were weak.
When King Jin'an saw him, he was a little surprised.
"Mr. Shen, this is..." He seemed to have thought of something and immediately refused, saying, "If you want to save me, please go back."
Shen Peiqing understood what King Jin'an was worried about and calmly explained to him, "I'm here to save you, but not now."
Prince Jin'an was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized something. After a pause, he asked directly, "What do you want? The eldest prince of Beizhou?"
