Chapter 328

Because the Xiao Mansion and the Shen Mansion were not far apart, Xiao Yushan walked to the Shen Mansion today, and naturally walked back as well.

Not far from the Shen Mansion, Xiao Yushan looked at his good disciple and asked him the question that had been bothering him all day.

"My dear disciple, please tell me how you got into the Xiao Mansion."

"I walked in! Except for the first part where I had to climb the wall."

It was the middle of the night when she went there. The gate of the Xiao Mansion was closed, so she could only climb over the wall.

Qiao Qian looked puzzled at Xiao Yushan's sudden question of such an idiotic nature.

"Uh!" Xiao Yushan was speechless. After thinking about what he had said, he felt that he might not have been clear enough, so he changed the question, "My dear disciple, I want to ask, the Xiao Mansion is full of poisons, and you don't have the antidote. How did you get rid of those poisons?"

Hearing this, Qiao Xi stopped, tilted her head, and carefully recalled everything that happened last night.

After a while, he shook his head again:

"Master, there are poisons in your house? Where did you put them? What kind of poisons are they?"

Qiao Xi's three consecutive questions completely confused Xiao Yushan.

It turned out that she had no idea that the Xiao Mansion was poisoned everywhere.

Then wouldn't she be——

Thinking of this, Xiao Yushan didn't bother to ask Qiao Xi's consent. He took her hand and began to take her pulse.

After counting the number of her left hand, he counted the number of her right hand, and even asked Qiao Xi to stick out her tongue to show him.

Qiao Xi was a little scared after watching it, so she took back her hand and said seriously:

"Master, what kind of poison was put in your house?"

Could it be some kind of fertility-destroying drug? That probably wouldn't have any effect on her. Unless she remarried!

When she thought of getting married, she thought of Xu Yi. Judging from Xiao Yushan's intention, he wanted her to live in the Xiao Mansion.

She was a little uncomfortable parting with Xu Yi without any psychological preparation. She wondered if he would get used to being without her? Would he miss her?

As she thought about it, Qiao Xi felt a little shy and her cheeks turned slightly red.

Seeing her in such a state, Xiao Yushan thought the poison had taken effect and reached out to feel Qiao Xi's pulse again.

Seeing him like this, Qiao Xi waved her hand, avoided him, and explained quickly:

"Master, I'm fine. I just felt a little hot. You haven't told me yet. What kind of poison did you put in the house?"

"There are many. There are Bone Gnawing and Marrow Erosion, Seven Stars Poison Cloud, Styx Rotten Bones, Evil Shadow Heartbreak—"

Xiao Yushan was counting on his fingers as he spoke, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by Qiao Xi.

"That's enough. No more talking."

Qiao Xi was afraid that she would continue to listen, and her eyes twitched so much that they almost didn't belong to her.

"Master, are your poisons free? Or do you just enjoy researching poisons when you have nothing better to do?"

Otherwise, how could his family have so many poisons with strange names?

To be honest, just by hearing the name, she felt that the poison must be very toxic.

"This... My dear disciple, this poison is not free, but my family is not short of money."

Hearing Xiao Yushan say "not short of money", Qiao Qian's mouth began to twitch. When would she ever have enough money?

"Master has been really into developing poisons lately, so there will be more poisons.

But my dear disciple, why don't you have any Chinese medicine?"

"Maybe it's because I've taken a lot of detoxification pills before."

When she was developing medicine in the space, she had been experimenting with numerous drugs. Some of them were antidotes, others were direct poison avoiders. The key was that when she was thirsty, she would drink the stream water in the space. The water alone was probably more effective than many antidotes, and it could even change her constitution.

But she couldn't tell any of this to anyone else, so she just made up a random excuse to coax Xiao Yushan.

"What's the detoxification pill? Can you show it to me?"

So far, he has developed many antidote pills, but each one can only cure one type of poison, which makes him very dissatisfied.

He has always wanted to develop an antidote pill that can cure all kinds of poisons.

Hearing what he wanted, Qiao Xi used her mind and took out an antidote pill from the space. Although it could not cure all poisons, it was effective in curing two or three kinds of poisons.

Xiao Yushan took the detoxification pill and sniffed it, then happily held it in his palms, as if he had found a treasure.

Seeing Xiao Yushan's worthless look, Qiao Qian rolled her eyes.

If she took out the spiritual water in the space, he would faint with joy.

"Master, you haven't told me yet, where did you put the poison in the Xiao Mansion?"

She is fine, what if Xu Yi comes to find her?

Xiao Yushan studied the detoxification pill in his hand while answering Qiao Xi's question:

"Oh, there are places near the main gate, the courtyard gate, and even the flowers and plants. In short, there are so many that I can't list them all at once. I'll point them out to you one by one when we get back to the mansion."

Just as he said this, he suddenly heard a shout.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law!"

Xiao Yushan didn't know Han Yun'an, so naturally he didn't recognize his voice.

Josie was different.

Alas, speak of Cao Cao and he will appear.

She didn't mention Xu Yi, but mentioned Han Yun'an.

Qiao Xi stood there without moving, waiting until Han Yunan and the others came over.

"Aren't you going to find the inn? Why are you here?"

Han Yun'an was sweating profusely from running. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said breathlessly:

"Hey, sister-in-law, forget about looking for an inn. I've checked every inn in Baidi City, but there's not a single vacant room.

No, why are there so many people staying in the inn in Baidi City? Are there so many outsiders?"

He hadn't seen how bustling the streets of Baidi City were! The key point was that there were quite a few inns, so how could they be full?

Although Xiao Yushan was studying the pill in his hand, he still listened to some of Han Yunan's words.

“That’s because the imperial examination is coming soon, and candidates from all over Tianle Country will be coming, so naturally there will be a lot more people staying at the inn.

Plus, many merchants and travelers come to Baidi City every year, so the number of people staying at the inn will only increase, not decrease."

"What should I do then? Will I have to sleep on the streets?"

When Han Yun'an heard Xiao Yushan's words, the happiness he had just felt when he saw Qiao Xi disappeared in an instant.

"Well, let me think about it."

Not because he is Xu Yi's good friend, but because of the friendship in which he once accompanied her through life and death, she has to help him.

Qiao Xi pursed her lips in thought, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Xiao Yushan beside her. Her eyes lit up and she spoke in a very gentle voice:

"Master, do you want any other antidote pills?"

Hearing that there were other detoxification pills, Xiao Yushan nodded eagerly: "I want them. Do you have any more?"

"Yes, but—do you have any extra guest rooms?"

Xiao Yushan glanced at Han Yun'an beside her, and then looked at the man standing behind him. Judging from his appearance, he should be a security guard.

There are plenty of empty rooms in his house, so it’s okay to let them stay for a few nights. It all depends on how lucky they are.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yushan nodded happily: "Yes, there are plenty of rooms. However, if they are poisoned in the Xiao Mansion, my dear disciple, you can't blame your master!"
