Ke Ran’s expression was extremely unsightly, but she did not dare to say anything to Gu Qingxue. She immediately scrambled out to get help.
Gu Qingxue coldly took in Ke Ran’s flustered expression, and her eyes grew colder and more disdainful. “It seems like many people in the Qi family are just so-so.”
“Qingxue, how is Old General Qi’s condition?” As Rong Zhan spoke, he looked at Old General Qi. Although he was agitated, he could not even sit up from the bed. He could not help but feel worried.
At the mention of Old General Qi!s condition, Gu Qingxue’s brows furrowed tightly. “Not very well. I don’t think granduncle’s condition is sick, but more like he’s been poisoned by a Gu Worm. Furthermore, it seems to be the same type of Gu Worm as my grandmother.”
Rong Zhan’s expression turned cold. ‘Qingxue, Are you sure?”
“I’m pretty sure. Don’t worry, I’ll see how things go.” Gu Qingxue’s expression was grave. As she spoke, she had already reached out to take Old General Qi’s pulse.
Rong Zhan watched silently from the side, not daring to disturb Gu Qingxue.
After Gu Qingxue took Old General Qi’s pulse, her expression became more and more serious. In the end, she silently let out a long sigh and took out the medicine that her master had tested for her grandmother. Then, she took Old
General Qi’s blood and studied it further.
The results of the test did not disappoint Gu Qingxue.
Seeing the reaction between Old General Qi’s blood and the medicine, Gu Qingxue’s eyes turned serious. “As expected, it is the same Gu Poison as my grandmother’s. Moreover, the situation is far more troublesome than we had imagined.
“Why is the situation more difficult than I thought?” Rong Zhan stared at Gu Qingxue in confusion and asked.
“The Gu poison in my grandmother’s body requires the blood of a blood-related person as a drug primer in order for the Gu Poison to penetrate deep into her bone marrow. Only by finding this person can there be a way to cure the poison in my grandmother’s body. Old General Qi also has this poison in his body, and it even complements my grandmother’s. It can be seen that the person who poisoned my grandmother used my granduncle’s blood to poison my grandmother, and then used my grandmother’s blood to poison my granduncle. This has directly caused the Gu Poison in their bodies to affect each other, and the situation is very bad.” Gu Qingxue let out a long sigh of relief and forced herself to calm down. “I’ve read about a similar situation in a book before. Right now, my grandmother and my granduncle are basically restraining each other. This will make the situation even more difficult than before. ”
“In other words, if the two of them want to be saved, they can only be cured of the poison at the same time?” Rong Zhan looked at Gu Qingxue and asked.
Gu Qingxue pursed her lips and said, “The situation that Your Highness described is actually the best situation. What I’m most worried about right now is that the situation is more complicated than we thought. We might have to pay a greater price to get rid of the poison in their bodies. Perhaps only one of them might be able to survive.”
Rong Zhan’s expression froze. He narrowed his eyes and said, “I remember you said before that the person who poisoned your grandmother had not killed her. Was it because he wanted to use this method to have your grandmother and your granduncle use their lives to restrain each other?”
Rong Zhan’s guess resonated with Gu Qingxue, and her face turned colder. “No matter who it is, since he dared to do such a thing, then don’t blame me for not being able to tolerate him..”
