The White-Bone Demon of the Farm is as rich as a country

Before Ru Yue could take in the layout of the inner room, Huo Tingwan pulled her to the bedside and said, "Thank you for your help."

"Well, don't worry, I will do my best." Ru Yue nodded slightly at her, but her eyes fell on the young man lying on the bed.

The boy looked no more than ten years old, his dark hair spread out on the soft pillow, his face a faint blush, his breathing even, a soft snoring sound if you listened closely, a faint smile on his lips. He looked like he was fast asleep, how could he tell he was poisoned or sick? Yet, this child had been like this for seven days.

Ru Yue did not rush to take the boy's pulse, but leaned over and gently opened his eyelids. There was a barely noticeable redness in the white of his eyes, which would be mistaken for red bloodshot if not noticed.

"Sister, he was poisoned by the 'Dream Soul Grass'." A Ling told her through his spiritual sense.

Ru Yue took the boy's hand and placed it on his wrist. "His pulse is chaotic, thin but not weak, deep but not loud. Sometimes it's as rapid as a torrent, sometimes as slow as a turtle's breath. If he has three days left, I'm afraid even gods and ghosts won't be able to save him."

"What did you say?" a middle-aged male voice suddenly shouted, "Are you telling the truth?"

Instead of questioning her medical skills, the man was more worried about what she said.

"Master, don't listen to this little girl's nonsense. Brother Heng is a man of good fortune." A sharp female voice broke through the air. "What does she know about medicine at such a young age? Sister Wan, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but how can you bring anyone back to see Heng?"

Ru Yue turned around and saw a handsome middle-aged man with a clean-cut appearance looking at the boy on the bed with a worried look on his face. He ignored the woman's voice, and did not ignore Ru Yue because of her young age. "Can you tell what disease my son has?"

Ru Yue could see that this person really cared about the young man, and guessed that this person was Magistrate Huo of Jiaqing Prefecture.

"He is not sick, but poisoned." Ru Yue said slowly.

"What poison?"

"Dream Soul Grass. Those poisoned by it will fall into a deep sleep, unable to wake up for a long time. Ten days later, they will die in their sleep. No medicine or medicine will work."

"Are you serious?" Magistrate Huo's eyes immediately turned red and filled with moisture. "Ah Heng, Dad is sorry for you and your mother for not taking good care of you." Tears flowed down his face as he spoke.

"Master, don't be sad. It's only been seven days. We can still find a doctor to treat Ah Heng. Don't just listen to this little girl." There was a hint of imperceptible joy in her words. It seemed that the poison was not without reason.

"Ruyue, is this Dream Soul Grass poison really incurable? My brother is only ten years old. If I find out who poisoned him, I will tear him into pieces." Huo Tingwan pleaded in tears, "Please think of a way, Ruyue, I beg you."

"Miss, since you know what poison the child has been poisoned by, do you have any way to detoxify him?" Magistrate Huo seemed to come to his senses all of a sudden, and suddenly turned his tearful face to ask.

"Master Huo, although this Dream Soul Grass is a poison, it is also a rare and precious thing. Your son was poisoned by it, which shows that it is not an ordinary thing. If we can't find the culprit, even if he is detoxified and wakes up this time, do you think he can withstand the next plot?" Ru Yue answered the question irrelevantly.

Everyone was smart, and as soon as they heard this, they knew that Ru Yue could cure the poison. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became subtle. Some were surprised, and some were frightened. Ru Yue scanned everyone's faces one by one, taking their expressions into her mind.

"You mean that this poison is not easy to get, then how could the child..." Magistrate Huo did not seem willing to think about things in a bad way.

"Both the Dream Soul Grass and its antidote are miraculous relics left over from ancient times. In other words, they are both legendary herbs. How could a child like yours have such a deep hatred for someone and unknowingly be poisoned by this strange poison? Doesn't Master Huo find it strange?" Ru Yue pondered for a moment, then had to speak frankly. "If the murderer is not found, I will be the one to cure the poison this time. Do you really think you can guarantee that your son will grow up safely?"

There was a moment of silence in the room, and panting could be heard. "Don't exaggerate. You think you can scare us because we don't understand. Humph, master, a doctor considers it a success if he can cure the disease without causing it. Don't listen to her nonsense." A woman with a gorgeous appearance squeezed in front of the crowd, and only then did Ru Yue see her face clearly. She was wearing a purple dress, with a graceful figure and was elegant and graceful. It was obvious that she was not her biological mother.

"The young master is definitely not the Madam's biological son." Ru Yue will not tolerate her if she dares to rush into the gunpoint.

"What do you mean?" the woman asked in a sharp voice.

"What mother would have the energy to wear heavy makeup after her child has slept for seven days? What mother would question the doctor's advice after hearing that her son was assassinated? Madam, is that the truth?"

Humph, since you dare to ruin my plan, I will beat you to death with a stick, Ru Yue thought to herself.

This bland remark startled everyone in the room. Those who were smart had already suspected it, and those who were not so smart seemed to have suddenly understood after being reminded.

"You are talking nonsense. Although I am not his biological mother, I am his biological aunt. Master, are you just going to watch this damn girl who appeared out of nowhere accuse me?" As she said this, she didn't forget to cry and protest.

Magistrate Huo was only forty years old but he could become the head of the city, so he was definitely not a stupid person. He did not say anything, but just glanced at the woman's face. This one glance was enough to scare her.

"Could you please first, Miss, help me detoxify my child? I know how to do it."

"Ruyue, please save my brother. If you really can't keep him safe, I will take him back to our ancestral home to serve our grandmother." These words frightened everyone present again.

"Don't worry, Sister Huo. Since you've come with me, I'll help you within my ability. Just be patient."

She asked someone to bring some paper, and then took out the hard charcoal pencil she carried with her, wrote out the detoxification prescription and handed it to Huo Tingwan. Except for the "Red Jade Grass", all the other herbs were common.

"But this 'Ruby Grass'..."

Ru Yue took out a small grass with vines wrapped around it from her sleeve pocket. It was very special. "Sister Huo, this is the 'Red Jade Grass'. It might be the only one in the world. You must arrange for someone to make the medicine. Don't delegate."

Huo Tingwan nodded to Ru Yue and went out with people she trusted to make medicine for her brother.
