Chapter 108: Tasting Poison

"Chu Yan, come and see, what is the wound left by something?"

"Good!"

Chu Yan stepped forward, stared at the subtle wound, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "According to my observation, this should be the scar left by some kind of ant insect, and the poison in the princess's body is probably related to the ant insect." ”

"Antworms!" Emperor Xia's eyes were cold, his face was very ugly, there were many types of ant clans, and most of them were highly poisonous, and ordinary pill pharmacists couldn't tell them for a while.

"What should I do about this?" Xia Zhimeng's face became ugly, and she was about to cry.

Seeing this, Chu Yan hurriedly patted his shoulder and said comfortingly: "Zhimeng, don't worry, now you only need to take a small basin, cut your sister's arm, and release some poisonous blood, I have a way to find out the source of the poison planted in your sister's body through this poisonous blood!" ”

"Really?" Emperor Xia stared at Chu Yan with a solemn face, his eyes shining with golden light.

"Naturally, it's true!"

"Quick, go get the pot."

Emperor Xia gave an order, and soon an iron basin was brought by the maid.

Chu Yan took the iron basin and carefully slashed the arm of the woman in front of him, and a stream of stinking black blood gushed out of the wound and flowed into the basin.

"Alright, please Your Majesty later!"

After it was almost finished, Chu Yan came to the quiet place with the iron basin and put a drop of black blood in his mouth.

"Chu Yan, what are you doing?"

Xia Zhimeng was shocked by Chu Yan's actions, you must know that this black blood is highly poisonous, and if you put it in your mouth like this, it is not equivalent to drinking venom!

"Of course, taste the toxins in the blood and find out the species of poisonous ants!" Chu Yan looked up blankly and said, his method was to find out the source of the toxin by testing the poison himself.

"This is too dangerous, aren't you, aren't you afraid of poisoning?"

"No, just a drop." Chu Yan smiled indifferently, he was full of qi and blood, and he was generally highly poisonous and couldn't help him at all, although the ant venom in front of him was powerful, but a drop of it was not in the way at all.

"This kid!" Emperor Xia watched Chu Yan taste the poisonous blood, wanting to find out the source of the toxin, and couldn't help but feel a little more praise in his heart.

"Report!"

The commander outside the door suddenly walked out of the hall, and half-knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, the prince of Anton Hou asked to see him, and he claimed that he could cure the poison in Her Royal Highness the princess!" ”

"Huh?" A ray of light burst out of Emperor Xia's eyes, and he said excitedly: "Quick! Let him in. ”

The prince of Annan? Chu Yan stopped moving, he always felt that these words were a little familiar, so he asked, Xia Zhimeng beside him: "Miss Xia, who is the prince of Anton Hou?" ”

"He's it!" A trace of disgust flashed on Xia Zhimeng's face: "His name is Hou Tang, he is a hypocritical guy, he likes my sister very much, and he has been stalking and beating him very annoyingly." ”

As he spoke, a square-faced man dressed richly, wearing a jade crown and a moon-white robe walked into the hall quickly.

"Oh~" Chu Yan looked at the man, his face was a little more enlightened, he remembered that Hou Yao was born in the Hou Mansion of Anton, this person is similar to Hou Yao's appearance, and he should be his brother.

As he expected, when the man entered the hall, he half-knelt down and said, "Minister, Hou Tang has seen Your Majesty." ”

"Get up!" Emperor Xia waved his hand, too lazy to care about these etiquette, he said bluntly: "Hou Tang, you said that you can cure the poison in Zhiqing?" ”

Hou Tang showed a smile and said respectfully: "Back to Your Majesty, I haven't thought about tea and food since I heard that Zhiqing was poisoned, and I searched everywhere for a good doctor, and finally yesterday, I found a master of pills and asked for an antidote pill. With that, he took out a jade bottle from his bosom and took out a cyan pill from it.

"Third-Order Top-grade Ten Thousand Soul Detoxification Pill?" Emperor Xia's eyes showed a hint of surprise, this pill is an extremely precious one of the third-order pills, it is claimed to be able to remove ten thousand poisons, but its difficulty in becoming a pill is extremely high, and the palace alchemist of the palace cannot refine it at all, he has long wanted to visit one to cure his girl's condition, but he has not been able to find it.

"Yes, it's the Ten Thousand Souls Antidote Pill." Hou Tang smiled proudly: "Your Majesty, with this elixir, the poison in the princess's body can naturally be cured." ”

"Quick, give Zhiqing a quick dose."

"Slow!"

Just when the maid took the Ten Thousand Souls Antidote Pill and was about to give it to Xia Zhiqing, Chu Yan suddenly spoke out and stopped everyone.

"How?" Emperor Xia looked at Chu Yan with a puzzled expression.

Hou Tang's eyes were cold, staring at Chu Yan, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, who is this person?" ”

He finally asked for the Ten Thousand Souls Antidote Pill and presented it to Emperor Xia, just to cure Xia Zhiqing, so that he could get closer to the relationship, and begged Emperor Xia for marriage by the way, but now Chu Yan suddenly jumped out to make trouble, which made him very unhappy.

"He is my friend Chu Yan, and he is also an alchemist." Xia Zhimeng took a step forward and kicked Chu Yan and replied.

"Alchemist?" Hou Tang looked at Chu Yan with scrutiny in his eyes.

Emperor Xia was puzzled: "Chu Yan, what's the matter with you?" ”

Chu Yan looked serious: "Your Majesty, this Ten Thousand Spirits Antidote Pill can't touch Princess Zhiqing's poison at all, and it will aggravate your condition, please be cautious." ”

"What?" A trace of consternation flashed in Emperor Xia's eyes, and he hurriedly waved his hand and asked the maid to retreat with the pill.

Seeing this, Hou Tang's face darkened, and he was suddenly unhappy: "Boy, what kind of person are you, you dare to make such a big statement, this is the Ten Thousand Souls Antidote Pill, which can cure all poisons, how can it not treat the poison in Zhiqing?" ”

Chu Yan chuckled lightly and said flatly: "It's just a top-grade Wanling Detoxification Pill, I can't even look down on it, usually I can refine the best Wanling Detoxification Pill with a wave of my hand, but this Dan can't remove the poison in Princess Zhiqing, otherwise I would have refined it a long time ago." ”

"What a big breath!"

Suddenly an old man with gray hair and high spirits came outside the door, and when he heard Chu Yan's words, he immediately showed a hint of sarcasm.

"Where are you Xiaoxiao, you dare to speak wildly in front of Your Majesty, what can you refine the best Ten Thousand Souls Antidote Pill at any time, you are really bold."

"Alchemy Master!"

When Emperor Xia saw this old man, a hint of joy suddenly appeared on his face, and Hou Tang was a little more proud.

"Lianhuai!" Chu Yan raised his eyebrows, a little surprised, he had also heard of this person, he was a very famous casual cultivator, and his alchemy skills were extremely high.

"Hey, hey!" Hou Tang smiled, helped Lian Huai to look at Chu Yan and said in an unkind tone: "Master, it's good that you are here, otherwise some villains will be able to believe in their mouths today and mistake Princess Zhiqing's condition." ”

"Young man, don't think that after learning a few alchemy skills, you can be trusted to open up a river, and you can't be sloppy when it comes to saving people's lives." Lian Huai looked at Chu Yan and said in an arrogant tone.

"What the predecessors said is good, the matter of saving people's lives really can't be sloppy!" Chu Yan responded in a respectful tone, and then when he was smug in Lian Huai, his words changed: "But the predecessors didn't even know about the poison in Princess Zhiqing, and dared to use the Ten Thousand Spirits Antidote Pill to heal it, isn't it a contradiction?" ”

"You~" Lian Huai's face changed, feeling a little embarrassed, he stepped forward and snorted lightly: "The old man has studied Dandao for more than three hundred years, and he has never seen any poison, and the poison in Princess Zhiqing, the old man will know it at a glance." ”

As he spoke, he came to Xia Zhiqing's bed, looked at his face, and looked at it.

Seeing this, Chu Yan smiled slightly, sat aside, and watched Lian Huai's performance.

Facing everyone's eyes, Lian Huai's face became more and more ugly, and gradually cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

Emperor Xia looked at him for a long time without speaking, then coughed lightly and said, "Alchemy Master, can you see the poison in my daughter?" ”

"This~" Lian Huai hesitated, blushed and lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, the old man~ The old man failed to see the poison in the princess. ”

"Alas~" Emperor Xia sighed, a flash of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

Lian Huai looked ashamed, he looked at Chu Yan who was leisurely sipping tea, his eyes froze, and he said in a deep voice: "Boy, what are you proud of, you have the ability to tell the poison in the princess!" ”
