Volume 3 City of Water Chapter 307 The Ins and Outs
The detoxification began, the process was slow and time-consuming, in order to save time, Zhou Nian simply took Gan Zimo out of the house temporarily, and closed the door with his backhand.
The type of poison has not yet been clarified, and the detoxification cannot be rushed, if you want to completely cure Xue Hai, you must first find out what happened.
The sharp gaze swept a few glances at the female disciples outside the house, and Zhou Nian finally fixed on Gan Zimo again, and asked in a low voice, "Master Gan, this time I bought wood for the sword mound, but I don't know who Xue Hai is traveling with?" You called them all over, I have a few questions I want to ask them face to face." β
"Yes, yes. With his eyes rolling slightly, Gan Zimo suddenly understood, knowing that Zhou Nian wanted to find a breakthrough from the ins and outs of the matter, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly faced his disciple and shouted out a name, "That, Ge Bing, you come out." β
In addition to Xue Hai, Ge Bing is the second person in the industry who has more power to speak, and it is more useful to ask her than to ask anyone.
"Yes, master. Hearing this, Ge Bing walked out of the crowd and hugged his fist at Zhou Nian with a respectful face when he came to Zhou Nian's side, "I've seen Master Zhou." β
Zhou Nian cupped his fists and saluted back, "Miss Ge is polite, by the way, Miss Ge, you bought wood this time, but you went with Xue Hai?"
"Yes. β
"And do you know who poisoned her?"
"This ......" Dai's eyebrows frowned slightly, and Ge Bing's face suddenly had a look of embarrassment, as if she couldn't say why, she was silent for a few seconds, and had to tell the truth, "Master, I don't know much about this, this time I bought wood, Senior Sister Xue and I are almost like a shadow, eating and living together, she is cold and poisoned, I didn't expect it, it's not when she was poisoned." β
As soon as the word "eat and live together?" Zhou Nian's brows suddenly furrowed, changed his mind slightly, and continued to ask, "Then what strange things have you encountered along the way, or strange people?"
"Strange people?"
"That's right, no matter how big or small, you can say anything, even if it's a small detail, you can tell me. β
"Well......" Hearing this, Ge Bing suddenly pulled a long tone, pointed his index finger on his chin and thought about it carefully, as if he remembered something, and said slowly, "If the master asks like this, I really think of someone." β
"Who? Tell me about it. His brows stretched slightly, and Zhou Nian seemed to see a glimmer of hope, and hurriedly asked.
Ge Bing scratched his cheeks and said while reminiscing, "Actually, it's not a big person, just a woman holding a cat." β
"The woman holding the cat?" Zhou Nian was curious, "Then what does she look like?"
"Hmm...... Her age is about thirty years old, she looks quite beautiful, the clothes she wears are a little ordinary, she can't see the sect she belongs to, she is holding a cat with a black body in her arms, she is slightly rich in her gestures, the overall feeling is feminine and treacherous, and she always has an intriguing smile on her face when communicating with people, and what makes me more concerned is that she said something when she left, which made people a little angry. β
"What are you talking about?"
"Hmm...... I remember that she said it while laughing, and those words seemed to be said specifically to Sister Xue, the original words were - don't do what you can't do, don't offend people who can't be touched, kindness to help may not end well, small things, door rules are bound, and you have to do it if you go against your will, you are still young, and it doesn't matter if you make a mistake, just pay attention in the next life. β
"Next life?" Zhou Nian suddenly frowned when he heard this, and said seriously, "Isn't she threatening Xue Hai?"
Ge Bing agreed, " Yes, I thought so too, as soon as she said that, I got angry, and I wanted to ask for an explanation, but Sister Xue didn't let it, and chose to calm things without caring about it, and let her go, and when she left, she also praised Sister Xue for being generous, with the style of a female general, and when she was flattering, the seemingly docile black cat in her arms suddenly broke free from her control, jumped out and pounced on Sister Xue's arm, and was reprimanded by her, scolding the beast for not remembering to eat, being naughty, and even apologizing with an apology, but Sister Xue did not blame, she walked away with a smileγ β
"What? Xue Hai was bitten?"
"Yes, it was the damn black cat that bit it. β
"Hiss......" gasped, Zhou Nian lowered his head and pondered slightly, and a bold conjecture suddenly appeared in his heart, but he didn't say anything, and continued to ask, "Last question, what happened between you and the woman holding the cat?"
"Hmm...... In fact, it's not a big deal, that is, the woman's black cat is not very obedient, ran to the top of the piled up wood, the little guy in charge of the reception found out that the cat would bite the rope that tied the wood, fell down and hit the person, so he scared it loudly, but I didn't expect the black cat to be so afraid of life, was suddenly frightened by the little guy, and fell off the top of the very high wood, the body is not a big deal, but when it fell down, it was seen by the woman who came to find the cat, she was very spoiled by the cat, usually even reluctant to teach a lesson, how have you ever seen your pet scared to the groundDead or alive, the little guy has to apologize to the cat, but the little guy is also a paranoid and paranoid breed, dead or alive, what is he a dignified seven-foot man, wouldn't it be very shameless to apologize to a brute? Just because of this kind of trivial matter, the woman beat the young man so badly that she almost tore his mouth, and even her parents couldn't recognize it, but fortunately, at this time, Sister Xue stood up and kindly pleaded for the young man. β
"Oh? Xue Hai just begged for mercy?"
"Yes, I just became a peacemaker, and nothing else has to do with it. β
"Shhh...... It seems that the woman's revenge psychology is quite strong, and this temperament is very similar to the people in Wanhuafang. Zhou Nian looked into the distance and muttered in a low voice.
"Master, what did you say?" Ge Bing didn't hear too clearly, staring at the young man and asking curiously.
Zhou Nian came back to his senses, and immediately waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, I'm just talking to myself, I already have a general understanding of what happened, if my guess is correct, Miss Xue Hai is probably saved." β
"Ah, master, what you said is true?" Hearing this, Gan Zimo beside him suddenly leaned closer, and his old face was full of excitement.
Zhou Nian chuckled, "Hehe, true or false, I have to wait for me to verify it next, now I have a general idea, and I ask Master Gan to try his best to cooperate with me." β
"Yes, yes, Master, please speak. β
"Well, you go to the guest room first and invite my two friends Xiaochun and Zhixia over, I have something to discuss with them. β
"Yes, yes. "Clenching his fists, although Gan Zimo doesn't know what kind of medicine is sold in Zhou Nian's gourd, it is better to take action than not to act, after all, Zhou Nian is his only hope at present, and he must not be lazy.
Throwing a look at Ge Bing, Gan Zimo really didn't want to run anymore, first, he was physically exhausted, and secondly, he wasted time, so he simply let his disciple do it for him.
Seeing this, Ge Bing understood, tapped the ground with his toes, and went straight to the guest room.
About five minutes later, all three arrived at the same time.
"Zhou Nian, I heard this girl say that you are looking for us, but I don't know why?" Xiaochun stepped forward and asked.
Zhou Nian turned around and pushed the door, only throwing a back to the other party, "It's not convenient to talk outside, let's go into the house and talk in detail." β
Xiaochun and Zhixia glanced at each other after hearing this, although they were a little confused, but they still obediently followed in.
"Master, then we ......" Gan Zimo also wanted to follow up to listen to the tone, but the four words "not very convenient" in Zhou Nian's mouth made him hesitate a little, with his current ability, even if he went in, he would only be a fool, and he couldn't help anything, but he had a trace of luck in his heart, so he simply asked more.
"Smack!"
However, it was Zhou Nian who closed the door with his backhand, obviously not wanting him to enter.
"Huh?"
Gan Zimo's nose was almost hit by the door panel, and he hurriedly retreated a few steps, smoothed his chest without danger, and when he turned around, he saw Ge Bing standing not far away to cover his mouth and snicker.
"Ahem......"
Touching a nose of ash, Gan Zimo's old face suddenly turned red, and he was embarrassed in his heart, he was rejected by Zhou Nian and ridiculed by his disciples.
In the room, Zhou Nian's eyes glanced at the two girls seriously, and then pointed to the side of the bed, and said straight to the point, "Please come over this time, I have something to ask for, let's take a look at the poison in that girl first, and see if there is a way to detoxify." β
"Poisoned?she poisoned?" Xiaochun was stunned for a moment, and quickly walked to the bedside, his expression immediately changed when he first saw the symptoms on Xue Chai's body, but he was not completely sure, so he quickly sat down and reached out to catch her pulse, and began to diagnose her pulse.
Zhixia stood beside him with a solemn face, looked at Xue Chai on the hospital bed, and then looked at Zhou Nian who came over, and hurriedly waved his hand at him, signaling him not to approach for the time being.
The white and slender onion fingers slowly stirred, Xiaochun's brows became tighter and tighter, and after pondering for a moment, she suddenly stood up from her seat, and her jade hand put her hand on Xue Hai's left shoulder and pulled it down hard, actually tearing off the other party's sleeve.
"Zila!"
The sleeves were torn, revealing Xue Hai's white and slender jade arms, and there were three thin and long black lines from the wrist to the elbow joint, two deep and one shallow, the shallow one was gradually fading, the length was slowly shortening, and the two deep ones were not moving, thinking that even the ice silkworm could hardly devour the other two poisons.
"Hiss......"
Staring at the three black lines, Xue Chai couldn't help but gasp, her delicate pretty face was covered with countless clouds of sorrow and solemnity, and she was silent for a while before she sighed in dismay, "This ...... This is actually pear poison!"
