Chapter 185 Living in Pain
Chapter 185 Living in Pain
Pei Yun has been having trouble eating and sleeping lately. He started to feel sleepy during dinner tonight, so he went to bed without eating much.
Seeing the dishes on the table, he felt hungry again.
Seeing that his eyes were fixed on the roast chicken, Mu Gu pushed the plate towards him.
"Before Master went to rest, did you tell your uncle what his current situation was?"
Pei Yun didn't bother to be polite with him. He grabbed a chicken leg and started eating.
"Grandmaster didn't say anything, but I heard Grandmaster talking to Master and his wife, saying that Uncle's condition has improved a lot, and if he takes a few more medicinal baths like before, the poison in Uncle's body will be removed."
After hearing this, Mu Gu felt much more relieved. He had already eaten and was drinking tea from the teacup.
"You have done me a favor. What do you want? As long as I can, I will satisfy you."
He knew that if Pei Yun hadn't been there this time, Xiao Ruge would definitely not have survived until the boat arrived.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a life-saving grace.
There were so many surprises that Pei Yun couldn't handle them all.
Mu Gu looked at him in a daze, smiling, "It doesn't matter. I will always remember this favor. I didn't expect that I could keep it for the future. I will always have this favor from you!"
Mu Gu reached out and patted Pei Yun, who was holding the chicken leg motionlessly, then stood up and went into the house.
Pei Yun sat there guarding the brazier for a long while before finally coming to his senses. A beautiful figure flashed through his mind and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The sun slowly rose from the horizon, and Mu Gu watched the sunlight shine into the house, the light slowly illuminating Xiao Ruge's facial features.
The bloodless cheeks were no longer pale, and the rise and fall of the chest became stronger. All of this made him feel extremely at ease.
The door was finally pushed open and Bianzhou walked in.
Mu Gu sat up, stepped down from the bed with his long legs, and bowed respectfully to Bian Zhou.
"Thank you, Master!"
"Okay, if it weren't for your devotion to Xiaojiu, I wouldn't want to care about you!"
The old man waved at Mu Gu, walked around him to check his apprentice's pulse, and then told Mu Gu to hurry up and eat, as he would start the second detoxification of Xiao Ruge in a while.
While Mu Gu was eating, Mo Yi respectfully handed him a small bamboo tube.
Everyone else immediately looked up at him, and after reading it, Mu Gu passed the note to everyone else.
Lan Shi and Yuan Ying's faces darkened after reading it. Pei Yun, who was standing nearby, saw this and stood up, walked behind them and quickly scanned the words on the note.
"Changyun Mountain, the assassination attempt failed, next point, Qiu County."
Pei Yun looked up at Mu Gu and couldn't help asking, "Who are you trying to kill, my Lord?"
"Mooper."
Mu Gu uttered two words lightly, quickly ate the bun in his hand, and a bloodthirsty smile appeared on his face.
"He was the one who ordered Ruge to be poisoned. If I don't fight back, I won't be able to get rid of the hatred in my heart!"
Pei Yun was frightened by the smile on his face and quickly shrank back to his seat.
"Xiao Qi seems to be near Qiu County."
Yuan Ying was silent for a moment, then suddenly said this.
Mu Gu looked up at Yuan Ying, revealing his white teeth; his expression was finally not so creepy anymore.
"Are you talking about Senior Brother Seven? If you want to find Mu Bo, I can ask someone to cooperate with Senior Brother Seven!"
Yuan Ying glanced at Lan Shi and found that Lan Shi had returned to normal and was eating slowly. He did not stop him, so he nodded.
"I'll give you a contact number. Send someone to find him at Shitou Peak, 50 miles west of Qiu County. He will definitely cooperate with you!"
Mu Gu was naturally happy to be able to cause trouble for that bastard Mu Bo. The few of them quickly exchanged information, and finally Mo Qi took a letter and headed for Qiu County as quickly as possible.
At the foot of Changyun Mountain, Mu Bai was sitting in the big tent and letting the military doctor change the medicine, but he kept glancing at Zhou Yan on the other side.
He encountered another assassination attempt last night. This time there were more people than last time, and they were more powerful.
Fortunately, Zhou Yan lived with him and blocked many knife attacks for him, which also caused Zhou Yan to be seriously injured and fall into a coma.
"How is Zhou Yan?"
After the military doctor bandaged him, he stood up and walked to Zhou Yan and asked another military doctor.
The military doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and sighed, "Your Highness, Vice Admiral Zhou can no longer continue on his journey. He needs to rest well, otherwise he may suffer lifelong injuries."
Mu Bo frowned. The reason why he did not hurry on his journey today was, firstly, because he was injured even more, and secondly, because Zhou Yan was too seriously injured and had fainted.
His eyes swept over the scars on Zhou Yan's body caused by the fire. Mu Bo thought for a moment and said, "Come on, find a quiet village for Lieutenant General Zhou to recover! Also leave a few people to take care of him, and come back to catch up with the main force after Lieutenant General Zhou recovers!"
After hearing this, the guard immediately took the order and left.
After a day of rest, the team set off again. This time, due to his injury, Mu Bo could no longer ride a horse and could only take a carriage.
But this way, the team's progress slowed down a lot.
When Mo Qi brought the letter to find Bianzhou's seventh apprentice Tong Jun, Mu Bairen had not yet arrived in Qiu County.
After reading the letter written to him by his senior sister, Tong Jun was so angry that he kicked over the bamboo chair.
"Damn it, is that bastard thinking that there is no one in Wu'ai Mountain? Just wait, I'm going to make some poison and kill that bastard!"
Tong Jun has a hot temper. Compared with medical skills, he is better at making poisons.
Although Bianzhou is a miracle doctor, he never stops his disciples from developing. He only teaches according to the individual's ability. He teaches what the disciple is good at.
Making poisons is also a great strength, and if used properly it can save lives. Tong Jun is a poison doctor who specializes in using poisons to cure diseases and save lives.
So under the witness of Mo Qi, Tong Jun spent a day refining a colorless and odorless poison.
"Seventh Master, what kind of poison is this? Can it kill the Fifth Prince?"
Mo Qi is Mu Gu's secret guard, so naturally he cannot be on equal footing with Mu Gu.
As Xiao Ruge's senior brother, Mu Gu should also respectfully call him senior brother, so Mo Qi simply lowered his status by one generation to show his respect for Tong Jun.
Tong Jun was very satisfied with the way Mo Qi addressed him. He stroked his beard and smiled sinisterly.
"It would be pointless to just poison that bastard to death. I want this bastard to live in misery for the rest of his life!"
Seeing that Mo Qi was still looking at him in confusion, Tong Jun explained carefully: "A man's greatest desires are nothing more than money, power and women, right?"
Mo Qi nodded, and Tong Jun continued: "That bastard has both money and power, the only thing left is that he doesn't have a wife."
"A person who is poisoned by this will have strong desires at first, but will not be able to satisfy their desires. After a month, they will gradually feel powerless. As long as they drink aphrodisiacs, the second layer of toxicity of this poison will be triggered!"
