Chapter 50: The Onset of an Old Disease
Early in the morning, the two of them opened their eyes almost at the same time - "What smells so bad?" Liang Yue frowned in disgust, and looked at Su Yi's eyes full of doubt.
Su Yi also frowned, and at the same time got up to put on his shoes. "Looks like something is burned, I'll go take a look."
In the courtyard, the old man who went to bed early yesterday was staring at the old woman with his hands on his waist.
It took a long time before the old man frowned and asked, "What is that in your hand?" Why does it smell so pungent? ”
The old woman looked down at the bowl in her hand, and said with some embarrassment: "I made the ......."
She got up early, thinking that she should be grateful to Liangyue for their kindness when she made breakfast, but she didn't think that the meal was not done, but she burned out other people's pots.
“…… You've lived most of your life, not to mention you can't even cook? The old man looked at her suspiciously, and the more he looked, the more suspicious he felt.
Although he went to bed early yesterday with drunkenness, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know anything. Inexplicably, an old woman who was looking for the wrong person, and the five people who visited at night last night, he was clear in his heart.
The old woman was stunned for a moment, and immediately said that she was bad, and she showed her stuffing!
"What's wrong?" Su Yi had already heard the conversation between the two of them, and walked over quietly, and as soon as he got closer, the slightly pungent smell became stronger, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
The old man pretended to be annoyed and pushed him away, and called Liang Yue in his mouth: "Moon girl! Take him into the house, and don't come out and make trouble! ”
Liang Yue, who had just come out of the room, was directly named, with a look of confusion, but seeing that the master's face was not very good-looking, she didn't dare to speak, and directly pulled Su Yi's arm and returned to the house.
"Huh...... You're an old woman, it's really interesting. The old man circled around the old woman and smiled, "Tell me, where is the antidote?" ”
"Antidote?" When the old woman heard this, she immediately felt that something was wrong, and asked, "Didn't I just make the rice paste, although the paste smelled a little bad, but it didn't look like poison?" ”
It's weird. The man just told her to cook a meal for them, and didn't say that he was going to poison her? Besides, although she is doing things for money, she will never do such murderous things, she is old, and she doesn't want to go to hell to pay off her debts after she dies.
Seeing that the old man was still staring at her, he couldn't help but be a little stunned, and hurriedly explained: "What I said is true, I just want to cook a meal for you to eat, but I didn't want to make it like this, I still wonder, my wife has been cooking all her life, although she has never made any delicacies in her life, but it is not like today, just put in the dish and fry it directly......"
The more the old woman spoke, the more strange she felt, and muttered: "Besides, I didn't put anything else, just vegetable leaves, and ......" Speaking of this, the old woman seemed to suddenly remember something, and quickly took out a bag of things from her arms, and handed it to the old man tremblingly, "Could it be this thing?" The man said that it was a condiment for cooking, and told me to put it in when I was cooking, and I thought that maybe the food would taste better, so I didn't think much about it, so I put it in a little, and I didn't think that as soon as I put it in, your pot would ......."
"That person? Who is it? The old man approached and sniffed, and suddenly his eyes were cold, and he shouted, "Say it quickly!" Who instructed you to poison you? ”
Hearing this, the old woman was so frightened that she fell to the ground as if in disbelief: "What are you talking about? This is...... Is this poison? Is this really poison? ”
So, the man lied to her! She actually poisoned such a good two children......
The old woman sat down on the ground with a sad face, as if she could not accept this fact.
The old man frowned, seeing that the old woman's appearance did not seem to be fake, perhaps she didn't know that it was poison, but was just fooled and used.
In fact, this is not a powerful poison, even if they really eat it by mistake, the old man can make an antidote as soon as possible, and there is no need to be afraid.
But what makes the old man puzzled is not why the person behind him instructed an old woman to poison him, but even if he was really poisoned, why did he do it so flawlessly?
I was puzzled, and suddenly heard Liang Yue's exclamation in the room - "Su Yi, Su Yi!" What happened to you?! ”
Somehow, Su Yi was sitting and drinking water, but he didn't finish drinking a glass of water, but he suddenly bent down in pain, and then his face turned pale, and the corners of his mouth overflowed with jet-black blood......
This undoubtedly frightened Liang Yue, and she even called out to her master, so anxious that tears were about to come out.
"Master, Master! Show him, what's wrong with him? ”
"Don't panic, I'll see."
In just a few words, Su Yi seemed to have experienced great pain, and when the old man came to check his pulse, he couldn't support it and fainted.
After a long time, the old man withdrew his hand, his brows furrowed, but he did not speak.
Liang Yue was anxious, but she could only ask carefully, "Master? What do you think? ”
The old man glanced at her, and just wanted to scold you for this little bit of interest! But when the words came to his lips, they were replaced by relief: "It's okay, it's just a recurrence of the old disease." ”
"But what he spat out was black blood, isn't this poisoning?" Liang Yue hurriedly said, "Master, I beg you, can you hurry up and make an antidote for him?" ”
The beard on the old man's lips trembled, and finally he couldn't help but scold: "Look at your little talent!" What are you crying about, what are you panicking about? Your master is here, can you still call him dead?! You have time to cry, why don't you go out and boil some hot water, don't get in my way here! ”
Liang Yue was scolded by him, and was immediately silent, seeing that the master actually carried Su Yi to the bed effortlessly, and her mind gradually calmed down a little, but she was too panicked, and she didn't calm down and think of a solution when she encountered something, but panicked like something, which is really against the master's usual teachings......
"I'm sorry...... Master, I'm going to boil water! ”
Turning aside the cool moon, the old man looked at Su Yi, whose face was as white as paper, and sighed faintly. Immediately, he took a silver needle and poured internal force to suppress the toxicity of the needle for him.
The old woman outside the hospital had long since disappeared, thinking that she had taken advantage of the chaos to escape.
A pot of water had not been boiled, but Liang Yue had already completely calmed down. What happened from last night to now, in a coherent chain, is not difficult to find the problem.
First, the old woman who pretended to be looking for her grandson admitted the wrong door, and then deceived her sympathy by selling miserably, attracting people from the Su family to investigate the situation at night, and even the old woman cooking for them this morning was also instructed by someone behind her - although the mushy smell was unpleasant, it could not completely cover up the other smells mixed in it. It was the old woman who tried to poison her, but she didn't succeed.
Thinking of this, Liang Yue had to be suspicious, smelling the smell, guessing that the poison was not highly poisonous, and if she instructed an old man to poison her, wouldn't she be afraid of failure? Or is it just redundant to poison the food, or is it a cover-up? Or, take your eyes off it?
Divert your gaze......
A trace of uncertain thought suddenly flashed in Liang Yue's head, and before she could think about it, she suddenly felt a pain on the back of her hand, and the water on the stove boiled, splashing a few drops on the back of her hand.
When she entered the house with hot water, the old man had already finished administering the needle to Su Yi, and gave him some internal force, seeing that his face had improved slightly, and he was no longer as white and scary as Fang Cai, so he withdrew his hand and sat down at the table to drink water and catch his breath.
"Master...... Rub it. Liang Yue thoughtfully handed over a handkerchief, and saw that the master's forehead was covered with fine and dense sweat, and she felt a little guilty.
The old man glanced at her again, and this time he didn't scold her again, but just took the handkerchief, raised his chin, and motioned for her to take care of Su Yi.
After hesitating again and again, Liang Yue still couldn't hold back, and said her guess: "Master, Su Yi's old illness has recurred, could it be related to the smell just now?" Although the poison is not highly toxic, it does not rule out the possibility that it can lead to other poisons. ”
The old man's eyes sank and nodded, agreeing with her speculation. "Quite possibly. And...... The toxins in his body seem to have accumulated for many years and have not been removed, so I gave him an injection and found that there was more than one poison in his body. ”
Liang Yue was wiping Su Yi's face with a hot towel, and when she heard this, she paused, and then turned her head and asked her master: "Master, are you sure?" ”
In a short sentence, his voice trembled a few times, as if he was trying his best to restrain his emotions.
The old man sighed lightly, stood up and pretended to be relaxed: "Fool, there is no poison in this world that your master and I can't solve, you can relax, take good care of him, and I'll try refining medicine." ”
Although Liang Yue was skeptical, she had to say that Master's words undoubtedly gave her a reassurance, so that she would not be so flustered.
She can't panic...... If he messes up, what should Su Yike do?
His gaze fell on Su Yi's face - even in a coma, he seemed to be suffering some great pain, his eyebrows were tightly furrowed, the cold sweat on his forehead was wiped and flowed, and his lips were bloodless, even showing a faint dark blue.
Who the hell is it...... So ruthless......
Liang Yue leaned down and gently approached his body, as if in this way, she could transmit the warmth of her body to him, so that he would no longer be so painful......
Sioux House.
Although it is autumn, many flowers have long been defeated, but it is the season when the chrysanthemums bloom, and there are pots of carefully tended chrysanthemums waiting to be put everywhere in Sufu, and the residual leaves outside are withering, but it is not like autumn here, but it is like a spring of flowers.
Listening to the guard's announcement, the head of the Su family was naturally overjoyed, slowly got up from the recliner, squinted and said, "It's almost, it's time to meet that little girl." ”
The guards hurriedly ordered someone to prepare a sedan chair, and then came all the way to the small courtyard.
…… Su Yi had a dream.
In the dream, his whole body was aching, as if he had been beaten hard, and after a while, even his internal organs began to hurt violently, as if he was burned by a raging fire, and the pain was so painful that he almost fainted.
While he was still a little awake, he suddenly heard a distant and ethereal voice coming to his ears, extremely cold, with a little sigh -
"It's just a mortal woman, is it worth it?"
Who? Which woman? Who was whispering in his ear?
Su Yi struggled in the cramp-like pain of broken bones, and in the moment before he was about to faint from the pain completely, he seemed to see a woman's beautiful face.
Is that......
