Poison Doctor Roaming the Martial World

Chapter 333 The Arm That Is Too Familiar to Be Familiar

Yang Jianwu gently wiped the fingers that had touched the maid's cheek with a silk handkerchief, her movements light and delicate.

"When you get home, remember to apply a cold towel to it; this will help reduce the swelling and pain."

Yang Jianwu's voice was soft, yet it carried an undeniable air of authority.

The maid kept her head down, not daring to look at Yang Jianwu, but her clenched teeth and slightly trembling body revealed that she was filled with resentment and dissatisfaction.

Faced with Yang Jianwu's instructions, she could only suppress her anger, bow her head and thank her, saying, "Yes, thank you for reminding me, Miss Yang."

The word "remind" was deliberately emphasized, the irony of which was self-evident. Clearly, the beating was being held against Yang Jianwu.

Yang Jianwu shrugged indifferently, turned around and beckoned Mo Ye and Lu Qiao to leave together.

Just a few steps after they had walked, Yang Jianwu suddenly turned around as if she had remembered something.

"Oh, by the way, just one more thing."

Yang Jianwu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile that was neither a smile nor a frown.

"A person's face needs to breathe. If it's covered for a long time, it can cause skin problems."

After saying that, without waiting for Yao Yusheng and the maid to react, he turned around and continued walking.

Yao Yusheng and her maid were left standing there, completely stunned...

The maid stared wide-eyed at Yang Jianwu's departing figure in disbelief.

How could she know she had something on her face?

Yao Yusheng was completely taken aback that Yang Jianwu would be so perceptive in noticing this.

Watching Yang Jianwu's figure gradually disappear into the distance, Yao Yusheng couldn't help but feel a surge of regret...

Perhaps she shouldn't have been in such a hurry to return to Beijing...

"Sword Dance, what did you mean by 'rotten face' just now?"

Lu Qiao pondered to herself. Although she had some guesses, she still dared not say them out loud, since it was just her personal speculation.

Seeing Lu Qiao's suspicious look, Mo Ye couldn't help but laugh and said, "Silly! Xiao Wu'er means that the maid is wearing a human skin mask."

Lu Qiao, “…”

As expected, I had never seen a human skin mask before, which is why I wanted to confirm it.

There's no need to call her stupid; she's very bright...

And all that other nonsense...

"Qiao'er, you agree?"

"Qiao'er, I mentioned to you a few days ago that I wanted you to be my queen. Have you thought it through?"

Mo Ye didn't explain whether he said it to appease Yao Yusheng.

Ugh……

Human hearts are like a play, ever-changing...

Complex emotions, elusive...

Yang Jianwu patiently explained, "When someone's face is slapped, swelling and pain may occur, possibly due to soft tissue damage, subcutaneous bleeding, or muscle strain leading to a local inflammatory reaction."

The maid's face was swollen like a steamed bun, yet it didn't turn red because the bulging skin was stretched open by real flesh.

Lu Qiao's mouth opened into a flat "O" shape...

"So...you touched that maid's face twice to confirm the human skin mask!"

Yang Jianwu smiled and shook her head, "I'm sure one touch of the human skin mask is enough, as for the second time..."

Of course, it's for poisoning! She's very good at using someone else's own methods against them!

Thinking of poison...

"Brother Ye, you still say Qiao'er is stupid? You're the stupid one!"

Yang Jianwu bluntly accused Mo Ye, saying, "You knew Yao Yusheng had problems, yet you let her get close. If it weren't for Xiao Jin, you wouldn't even know how you were tricked before you died!"

Mo Ye's face fell, and he stiffened his neck as he retorted, "Of course I know she has a problem!"

The moment he smelled the fragrance, he felt dizzy and knew he had been ambushed!

But she quickly came to her senses, "I thought I could handle it..."

Yang Jianwu laughed in exasperation, "You think there are too many things!"

Knowing he was in the wrong, Mo Ye stopped arguing.

After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "What kind of poison did she use?"

Yang Jianwu stroked his chin, pretending to think, but in reality he was checking the analysis results in the space.

"It's a combination of poison and Gu!"

Upon hearing this answer, Mo Ye frowned slightly.

I can't help but think of the plague in Lucheng and Guo Suo in Hanling County. Could all of this be the work of Nangong Ji again?!

Mo Ye was filled with doubt and continued to ask, "What exactly are the effects of this poison?"

Yang Jianwu was also seeing this kind of combination for the first time, and gestured for Mo Ye to wait a moment, as the space was being analyzed and the results would be available soon.

After a long pause, he finally said, "Does the person afflicted by the Gu poison have the illusion that certain things actually happened?!"

Mo Ye's heart sank immediately.

Remembering how Yao Yusheng kept mentioning how she had saved him, could it be...?

"Yao Yusheng wants you to treat her as your savior!" Lu Qiao suddenly said from the side, "To take advantage of someone's kindness!!"

Mo Ye nodded, "I'm afraid it's not just that I'm thinking..."

His tone was somewhat heavy, as if he had thought about more things.

"Keep Xiao Jin with you these days, just in case something happens to him."

Yang Jianwu bit her lower lip with her upper lip, making a soft sound.

A yellow figure darted out and landed on Yang Jianwu's shoulder.

Lu Qiao turned her head and made eye contact with Xiao Jin. She managed to hold on for a few seconds, but then she could no longer suppress her fear and screamed.

"Ahhh~ snake!!"

There really were snakes!!

She thought Yao Yusheng was deliberately screaming to attract Mo Ye's attention...

Xiao Jin, "..."

The pretty lady seems quite afraid of it.

Upon seeing this, Yang Jianwu felt a pang of anxiety and hurriedly tried to step forward to comfort Lu Qiao, forgetting that Xiao Jin was still on her shoulder.

"Qiao'er, don't be afraid, it's my pet. You've seen it before, it was wrapped around my wrist..."

Lu Qiao was completely overwhelmed by fear and couldn't hear Yang Jianwu's words at all.

She instinctively wanted to escape the snake, so her feet involuntarily took a step back.

One went forward, the other backward. Lu Qiao had no eyes behind her and didn't notice the stone under her feet. As a result, she fell backward spectacularly.

The word "ah" was on Lu Qiao's lips, but before she could utter a sound, her body was caught steadily by a force.

The arm was so familiar; I could guess who it belonged to without even looking...

Good heavens, are you kidding me?!

Lu Qiao didn't want to open her eyes anymore. It was so scary, so incredibly scary!!

Yang Jianwu lifted Xiao Jin's tail and said, "Xiao Jin, apologize to Qiao'er. You scared her!"

Xiao Jin felt so wronged that she curled up into a ball.

It's so cute...

When Lu Qiao heard Jian Wu mention Xiao Jin again, a scene suddenly flashed through her mind!

Sword Dancer often wore a gold bracelet on her wrist, which faintly emitted a scale-like pattern.

"Sword Dance, is the bracelet on your wrist made of gold?"

"Whether it's gold or not isn't important. What's important is that this bracelet is called Little Gold."

She even seemed to have praised the bracelet's unique material, and even touched it a couple of times...

what! !

Just thinking about that cool, smooth touch makes Lu Qiao feel like she wants to die!
