It turns out that I too have been robbed.

Chapter 17 The Strange Poison in the Body

The camp was in disarray.

Meng Shilang went to look for the imperial physician, leaving Pei Ruzhou alone in the tent.

After a while, footsteps finally came from outside the tent. The guards outside pulled up the curtain, and a man carrying a medicine box followed Meng Shilang into the tent quickly.

The doctor is finally here!

Pei Ruzhou hurriedly stood up and moved out of the way of the collapsed edge.

But unexpectedly, the imperial physician was not in a hurry to feel the pulse, but instead turned to look at Pei Ruzhou.

"Young Master Pei said, did you see a bright blue snake?"

"Yes, with thick and thin thumbs and a pointed head." Pei Ruzhou hurriedly repeated what he had just said to Meng Shilang.

Hearing this, the imperial physician paused, and finally put his finger on Qi Yunyao's wrist slowly.

After a while, the imperial physician took out a jade bottle from the medicine box, poured a pill from it, and stuffed it into Qi Yunyao's mouth.

Pei Ruzhou didn't see it, and Meng Shilang not far away quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

He only saw that after taking the medicine and taking the pulse for a while, the expression on the imperial doctor's face was still heavy and complicated.

"...Emperor Physician, is Your Highness alright?" Pei Ruzhou couldn't help asking, while speaking, he subconsciously clenched his fists.

The one who answered Pei Ruzhou was a long sigh.

"Hey..." The imperial physician shook his head, and said with great difficulty, "Although there is an antidote, but for some reason, the poison of the snake spreads too fast, Your Highness is still in danger."

"Prince doctor, you must save Yunyao!" At that moment, Meng Shilang plopped down on the ground, kowtowed to the doctor with snot and tears.

"Concubine Xian left early, only Yunyao was left behind, I, I..."

Seeing that Meng Shilang was about to faint from crying, Pei Ruzhou finally remembered something serious, and asked, "How do you get rid of snake poison?"

"Suck out the dirty blood from His Highness's wound... But this must be done by someone with deep inner strength." The imperial physician finally stopped being a secret, but spoke out in one breath.

suck.When there is poisonous blood, no matter how careful you are, there will be poison in your stomach.

The guards here are not strong enough, if they act rashly, they may be killed on the spot.

The tent suddenly became quiet.

And after taking the antidote, Qi Yunyao, who fell asleep, also woke up little by little.

He heard the words of the imperial physician and uncle!

Even Qi Yunyao heard that Pei Ruzhou spoke softly to break the suffocating silence.

He asked, "Is my internal strength enough?"

Qi Yunyao was in a trance for a while, he never thought that things would develop in this direction.

I obviously... I just want to scare you like the day.

But he was willing to take such a big risk to save me.

The venom of the Xuqi snake didn't spread so fast. I took the antidote in time, and I was already safe.

Qi Yunyao tried hard to speak, but the snake venom paralyzed his nerves, and his jaw seemed to be welded to death, so he couldn't even move.

A sense of powerlessness hit him.

……

Pei Ruzhou saw that Qi Yunyao's face was still pale while lying on the couch, and he didn't know what happened. Beads of sweat the size of soybeans suddenly appeared on his forehead.This state...why does it look worse than before?

In just a few breaths, Pei Ruzhou thought a lot.

Qi Yunyao is the sixth prince of Dayi, and even the Immortal Yao'an of the Nine Heavens!

If he died now, it would count as a failure to cross the tribulation.

Not only could he not be made immortal, but according to what those gods said, the whole world would be implicated.

Are there eggs under the overturned nest?

At that time, he and Zhou Lan will pass, and it is estimated that it will be a catastrophe.

...Combined with this period of getting along, Pei Ruzhou has long regarded Qi Yunyao as his younger brother.Saying there is no emotion is a lie.He couldn't help but watch the other party die like this.

After drinking the fairy wine in Jiuchongtian that day, he was no longer allergic to peanuts, and he was even scratched by a poisonous plant, and he was safe and sound.

Pei Ruzhou wanted to take a gamble, he bet that he would not die...

Seeing that the imperial physician remained silent for a while, Pei Ruzhou asked again: "Is it enough?"

This time the imperial physician was really stunned, he didn't expect that before he hinted or kidnapped or forced him with emotion, Pei Ruzhou would agree to it by himself?

At this moment, Meng Shilang glared at him fiercely, the imperial physician finally took a deep breath, and nodded with some difficulty.

He was recommended to the Tai Hospital by the Meng family more than ten years ago when Concubine Xian was the most favored.Over the years, he has worked hard for Meng Shilang.

But this time is different, Pei Ruzhou has a special status and is very much cared for by the emperor and the empress dowager.

Worried that it would be difficult to separate the relationship after the accident, the imperial physician said a few more words against Meng Shilang's eyes:

"...Mr. Pei, you can think about it, no matter how careful you are, you will get snake venom."

Don't say I didn't tell you in advance.

"I know." The boy was very calm.

"Anyone who is poisoned will be in pain, and even if they don't pay attention, they will die."

Pei Ruzhou was already a little anxious, he nodded and said, "Yes."

"Doctor!" Meng Shilang couldn't help but speak.

But the imperial physician still said: "The most terrifying thing is that there is no cure!"

"It's amazing." Pei Ruzhou couldn't help being speechless, the imperial doctor was talking too much, was he waiting for him to praise the snake's venom?

Why did the imperial physician feel that Pei Ruzhou's left ear went in and out of his right ear, and he didn't take his warning seriously at all?

So before cutting open the wound with a knife to bleed, the imperial physician couldn't help asking the last sentence: "Aren't Mr. Pei afraid?"

"I can do it."

You are fast!

The imperial doctor finally gave him a ghostly look, finally took out a silver knife, and slowly cut a gash on Qi Yunyao's wrist.

In fact, if you are bitten by an ordinary snake, you will have no problem at all if you take the antidote and then inhale the snake venom.

——But the bearded snake is different.

If you are bitten by it, you will be fine if you take the antidote in time.But if the snake venom is swallowed directly, it is really a regular attack, and there is no cure for it.

Unless the snake venom has spread rapidly and the life of the poisoned person is hanging by a thread, there is no need to do this.

But obviously, Qi Yunyao is not like this now.

The Imperial Physician and Meng Shilang deliberately exaggerated the spread of Xu Qi's poison.

The boy in front of him is only 16 years old, he has just arrived in the capital from the border, and has not seen much of the world, so it is best to lie or scare him.If Pei Ruzhou hadn't directly agreed just now, the two of them would have tried every means to force him to do so.

Qi Yunyao's wrist hurt, and his head was completely awake.

He could feel the blood trickling down his wrist.

Then, the cold and soft lips pressed against her lightly.

The moment Pei Ruzhou's lips touched his wrist, a numbness spread from the wound, and spread throughout his body in just a few breaths.But Qi Yunyao didn't have the time or interest to relive this feeling.

His heart was screaming wildly.

stop!

They're lying to you, I... I'm lying to you too...

Qi Yunyao's heart suddenly felt painful, because he finally realized belatedly that it was he who pushed all this to an irreversible point.

Sucking out the first mouthful of poisonous blood, spit it out, and then rinsed his mouth with the water prepared by the imperial physician, Pei Ruzhou's lips were slightly numb.

And after repeating this action for the second and third time, Pei Ruzhou gradually became dizzy.

Everything in front of him began to spin, and his limbs gradually lost strength.

At this moment, Meng Shilang, who was kneeling on the ground just now, finally stood up.

He couldn't help sneering.

"Fate, it's all life!"

It was destined that the Pei family would fall into my hands...

Five or six camps were set up in this forest for hunting, each of which was in charge of an official, as well as an imperial doctor and two guards.

Meng Shilang didn't expect that he would meet Pei Ruzhou and the poisoned Qi Yunyao here.

Thinking of this, Meng Shilang couldn't help laughing again: "As expected of my nephew..." He knew that Qi Yunyao had the antidote with him.So it was reasonable to think that Qi Yunyao, like himself, wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge.

Even with internal energy to resolve it, Pei Ruzhou's movements still became extremely slow.After a few breaths, he suddenly slumped on the ground, lying on the edge of the bed and trying to adjust his breathing.

And the moment the soft touch on the wrist disappeared, Qi Yunyao finally struggled to open his eyes.

Qi Yunyao saw—Pei Ruzhou was slumped on the ground, his eyes closed tightly.His face was paler than a piece of paper. In contrast, his lips stained with poisonous blood were bright red that he had never seen before.

And then... there was dark red blood, winding down from the corner of Pei Ruzhou's lips...

Before Qi Yunyao could react, he heard Meng Shilang say with a smile: "It's been more than 20 years...you deserve it!"

At this moment, Qi Yunyao suddenly felt that the man in front of him was extremely strange.

The strange frightened him.

"More than 20 years ago, the man surnamed Pei drove me out of Zhoulan Pass. At that time, did he ever think about today?!"

Drive out of the day orchid pass?

Qi Yunyao never knew about it.

He always thought that Meng Shangshu hated the Pei family because of his mother and concubine, but now it seems that the matter is more than that...

Qi Yunyao was extremely panicked. He finally realized belatedly that his dependence on Pei Ruzhou...and those emotions that he couldn't distinguish for the time being, had long overshadowed the hatred.

He regretted it.

But...it's too late.

Pei Ruzhou's consciousness fell into darkness, but after a few breaths, the sense of chaos just now disappeared without a trace.

When he opened his eyes again, the scene in front of Pei Ruzhou suddenly changed from the camp in the dense forest of Huiyan Mountain to...

Empyrean?

He found that he was walking on the empty Nine Heavens!

With a slight movement, Pei Ruzhou heard a soft sound of rings colliding.

He couldn't help lowering his head slowly, and then he saw - on his body, he was wearing a Chinese dress with gold patterns on a white background, and his waist was also covered with all kinds of immortal jade plaques.

Strange...why are you dressed exactly like the gods in the temple?
