Close call

"Miss, it's Xiaomi's fault."

"What's wrong with you?"

Xiaomi's two hands hung down at his side, and his face was uneasy: "It was my carelessness, I forgot to relay Dr. Qi's words to my mother."

I leaned my head against the wall, and there was no strength in my body, only the gasp in and out proved that I was still alive in this world.

"What are you doing here?"

"Madame asked me to come over and see how Mademoiselle is doing."

I raised my eyelids weakly: "You go back and tell her...... Ahem, cough, I, can't die. ”

"Miss! Why did you cough all of a sudden? ”

Millet stroked my back and patted me gently, the worry in her eyes was by no means pretended, and her care for me in the past would not be fake.

"It's okay, the medicine I just drank suddenly came up, and I felt a little uncomfortable."

"Doctor Qi, show Miss quickly."

Qi Ji hurriedly leaned down to take my pulse, her fingers groping for my wrist, and the expression on her face was solemn.

"Doctor Qi, what's wrong with me?"

"Master."

He didn't answer my question, but got up first to find his master.

"How?"

Qi Ji shook her head: "Although it seems that Miss Mu Qian has woken up now, the toxins in her body have not been completely eliminated."

I braced my arms and tried to stand up, but before I could stand up, my legs went weak and I knelt down again.

I leaned on the side and said, "Doctor Qi, just tell me what you have, I can stand it."

"Your body won't survive for a few days."

Xiaomi took my arm and looked at Qi Ji: "Why?" Didn't Dr. Qi say that he was sure? ”

"But I didn't expect this fake death pill to be so powerful, even the master couldn't completely force out the residual poison."

I reluctantly allowed myself to sit up straight, put my weak arm on Xiaomi's body, and looked up and asked Qi Ji, "Who made this fake death pill?"

"It was made by the master with a long time of energy and time, but no one has ever taken this medicine."

"Then how can you still give it to Miss!"

Guo Xiaofeng said sharply: "Did you have any other way to let outsiders into the dungeon at that time?"

"......"

"Xiaomi, I'm fine, don't say it." I said as I pressed Xiaomi's arm.

"Now I want to ask Miss a word."

"Senior, you ask."

"Do you want to continue this face change?"

I pulled out a wry smile, and there seemed to be beads of sweat on my forehead sliding down my cheeks, and I don't know if it was because of the pill, my chest was also dullly painful.

"Nature...... I have to go on, otherwise I won't take this pill in vain? ”

Guo Xiaofeng smiled when he heard this: "Okay, your body is too weak now, let's recuperate for a few days first, and I also have to prepare well."

"I'm tired of the old-timers."

"I'll send them out."

Millet put down my arm, got up and walked to the door to look at the other three, stretched out his arm and pointed out the door: "Three doctors, please."

Qi Ji looked annoyed, lowered his head and followed the other two out of the dungeon door, before leaving, he took a deep look at the millet at the door, the corners of his mouth squirmed a few times, and he shook his head and went out of the door.

"Xiaomi, you don't have to stay here, send a few doctors out of the house."

"Yes, miss."

The gloomy dungeon, the thick smell of blood, and the faint stinging pain in my wrist all told me that they had let out the poisonous blood.

"Aunt Liu."

"The old slave is here."

I touched the tiny needle on my wrist and looked up at the door: "Aunt Liu, you come in and talk."

The sound of squirming footsteps came, and in the faint light, Aunt Liu's figure appeared in front of my eyes.

"Miss, but you have something to ask me?"

"Yes, do you know what they did today?"

Aunt Liu hesitated for a moment and said, "What Miss said, but Ye's?"

I shook my head, and then I thought that she couldn't see either, so I stopped and asked, "The three doctors."

"The old slave didn't know what they were doing inside, but Dr. Naqi went out to buy herbs."

"What about when you come back?"

"Doctor Qi went out for about an hour or two, and when he came back, he only had a bowl of soup in his hand."

I lowered my eyes and thought for a while and said, "Okay, I know, those three people will stare more, and the old man will not be so simple to look at."

"Yes, miss, I made a note of it."

There was a feeling of exhaustion in my body, and my upper and lower eyelids began to fight, and I waved my hand and said, "Aunt Liu, go out, I'm tired."

"Miss, are you feeling unwell?"

"I'm just a little tired and want to rest for a while."

Aunt Liu bent down and reached out to touch my forehead, and said, "Well, there is no fever, so the old slave will retreat first, and if there is something, he will go to the door and call someone."

Little by little, my head seemed to be kowtowing, and I hit my knee several times, but I didn't feel the slightest pain.

"Whew...... Sizzle"

As soon as I pulled the corners of my mouth, I felt a tearing pain at the corners of my mouth, and I raised my hand to touch the corners of my mouth, and the soft touch of my lips came to mind with the image of Qi Ji leaning over and kissing me.

"No, no, no......"

I hurriedly shook my head to shake off the image, but the clearer memory made me have to face the fact that Qi Ji had indeed fed me medicine with her mouth.

"How many days will I live......

The light in front of me gradually dimmed, and in the hazy eyes of tears, I thought of my grandmother and my father, who died in an unknown way.

"No, I can't die! I haven't slashed that Ye clan and Wan Yang yet! ”

The hands on both sides of the body tightened more and more, and the needle on the wrist seemed to seep blood out again, and the wrist was crispy and numb, and it was very sticky.

"Aunt Liu, I want to eat."

Dragging his broken body to the door, his weak hands used all the remaining strength of his body to slap on the iron door, and the crisp and loud sound of the iron door spread throughout the dungeon.

"Miss, the old slave is going to bring you food, please take a break."

When Aunt Liu's voice came to my ears from the outside, it was already very small, but fortunately, it was quiet enough inside for me to hear clearly.

“…… Good. ”

My hands were almost hanging from the iron door, and my body slid down against the door, and I collapsed to the ground.

With my head on the cold iron door, I listened to every sound outside, and my hand hanging on the ground touched a mess of slimy, which I knew was blood, but I couldn't take it away.

Someone outside wanted to push open the door, but after pushing it with his hand a few times, he found that he couldn't open it, so he had to ask: "Miss, it's the old slave who came to deliver the food."

“…… I ......"

I made a breaking sound in my throat, trembling my arms to move away from my body lying on the door, my fingers digging the ground, and using my fingernails to pick at the ground to drive my whole body to the side.

Aunt Liu listened to the fact that there was no movement inside, and pushed the iron door hard, and I was squeezed to the back by the iron door inside, and Aunt Liu walked in from the outside with a food box.

"Miss, where are you sitting?"

Liu ...... Aunt Liu...... I'm behind the door ......"

Aunt Liu only heard a very weak murmur behind the door, so she turned around and walked behind the door to look, and stepped on a soft thing under her feet.

"Miss, is that you?"

The pain of ten fingers drilling into my heart suffocated my breath, I raised my arm and twitched a few times, and Aunt Liu picked up her foot in an instant.

"Miss!" With an exclamation in my ear, Aunt Liu put down the food box, leaned over and grabbed my arm, and pulled me up.

"Water...... Water ......"

"The water is coming, the water is coming."

Aunt Liu took a bamboo tube and handed it to my mouth, holding my chin with one hand, and feeding me water in small sips with the other hand holding the bamboo tube filled with water.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

As I choked on a mouthful of water, I squirted out of my mouth and coughed violently against my chest.

"How? Is there something wrong? ”

My head rested on Aunt Liu's arm, and my eyelids were so heavy that I couldn't open them: "It's okay, give me food, I have to eat."

"Okay, okay, I'll bring you the food."

Aunt Liu opened the food box with one free hand, first took out a bowl of steaming red date porridge, and straightened my body.

"Miss, red date porridge is blood-replenishing, drink a bowl."

I raised my trembling arm to catch the bowl of hot porridge, put it to my mouth tremblingly, opened my mouth and drank the porridge, the hot porridge slid into my stomach, and my body began to warm up.

"Aunt Liu, is my body really bad?"

"No, we're going to take revenge together, have you forgotten your grandma?"

The bowl in his hand fell to the ground, and the sound of the ground was dull, as if it had fallen into the blood.

"How could I forget...... Grandmother...... Grandma died in this dungeon......"

Aunt Liu's tears fell on my face, and the temperature scorched my face, and I blinked and asked, "Aunt Liu, what are you crying about, I haven't cried yet."

"If I hadn't lost Miss, how could the Ye family treat you like this."

"Help me to the haystack, I can't eat anything else, I want to sleep for a while."

"Okay, the old slave will help you over."

Aunt Liu's legs and feet are not very dexterous, and it took a lot of effort to help me to the haystack, and just sat down to take a breath, someone pushed the door in.

It was Millet who also came over with a food box, and as soon as she entered the door, she first looked around.

"Don't look at it, what can you see here?"

"Mother, Madame asked me to bring food to Miss."

"You go inside, watch out for the blood under your feet."

In the darkness, I seemed to see Millet look down at the ground, and then walked towards us with the corner of her skirt in hand.

"Mother, how is Miss's health?"

"You don't have to ask too much, Miss is fine."

Xiaomi's figure paused, and a voice came slowly: "Mother, I am your biological daughter."

"I know, but this is my fault, and my responsibility is greater if Miss is what she is now."

"But my mother is also atoning for her sins now, so I don't have to blame myself too much."

"Okay, you can leave your things and leave, I'll stay here with Miss for a while."

"Mother, your health is not good, I will accompany Miss."

"You better go back and deal with the Ye family, she won't let Miss go easily."

Xiaomi squatted beside Aunt Liu, reached in and took out two buns from the food box, and handed them to Aunt Liu one by one.

"Mother, eat steamed buns."
