Chapter 1152: Ghost Saint Country 113

ng with others, but instead, she looked preoccupied and sullen. Indeed, it was not pleasing.However, he has something on his mind and keeps it to himself, which is really annoying. But he's a patient,..."This Miaojiang witchcraft is long gone in our time, but I know some general legends about it."

Tian Xiaomi glanced around, making sure no one was listening, then lowered her voice and said, “This Gu poison is actually made by putting spiders, scorpions, toads, venomous snakes, centipedes, and other poisonous insects in a container and sealing it for ten days. After opening the container, the only insect that survives is the most venomous one; this becomes the primary choice for Gu. It's then raised and eventually becomes Gu. If its feces are placed in someone else's well water or food, the person who eats it will develop worms in their stomach, gradually becoming weak and dying.”

How can that be solved

Du Gu Chengguang just hearing it was creepy, this poison placed inside the body, over time, this is equivalent to eating that person's body, such a wicked method, how did these people come up with it.

"Neither do I."

Tian Xiaomi looked at Dugu City, "This Gu poison is refined like this. If the person who uses Gu poison is caught, he should have a way."

"The person who uses venomous insects."

Dugu Cheng fell into deep thought. After he left, it was Li Wu Yan who had been taking care of Xi'er all along, and Li Wu Yan knew her condition best.

After being poisoned, would a doctor be able to tell

“That depends on the skill of the person who put the gu in. Think about it, the onset of the gu poison takes time, and no one knows what kind of gu was used. Therefore, to cure the poison, you need the person who cast the gu. You have to find the gu master, or a witch doctor skilled in treating gu poison.”

Tian Xiaomi's understanding of witchcraft came from her curiosity when she was younger, looking it up and researching it. There is so much recorded history in Chinese civilization spanning five thousand years; it's truly astonishing. However, witchcraft is a forbidden practice, and there's no way she would ever...

Dugu Cheng fell into deep thought. It seemed that if he couldn't find the person who used the Gu, he had to hurry up and find someone who could antidote it, otherwise Xi'er would be in danger of losing her life.

"Xiaomi, thank you for telling this king so much."

Tian Xiaomi shook her head, "I didn't do anything. I'm happy to be of help." If she could antidote poisons, she would be even happier.

"Husband, I want more."

Feng Lingxi touched her own stomach, "I'm so hungry."

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Ling Xi's pitiful appearance, as if she hadn't eaten enough. She had already eaten two chicken legs and still said she was hungry

"Xier, didn't you just eat two chicken legs How are you still hungry"

"Not enough."

Feng Lingxi looked at Du Gucheng, touching her belly, feeling wronged beyond words.

"There's still some food here. Let's eat."

Windling held a basin in her arms, clutching a drumstick and continuing to gnaw happily.

"She eats so much, it seems the poison in her body has already begun to react."

Tian Xiaomi reminded, "I mean, it might have already started to grow worms."

Dugu Cheng's heart clenched, and he hurriedly stood up.

"Wǎner, please help me, Your Majesty will find a way."

Tian Xiaomi nodded, watching Dugu Cheng lead Feng Lingxi away. She walked to Wan'er and picked her up, "Wan'er, Auntie will play with you."

Wan'er looked at Dugu Cheng taking Feng Lingxi away with pleading eyes, her expression full of reluctance, but she didn't do anything.

"Xiaomi."

Feng Yixuan stopped Tian Xiaomi. After Duguxing left, Feng Yixuan came. Hearing Feng Yixuan's voice, Tian Xiaomi wanted to leave, but he quickly stepped forward to stop her.

"Xiao Mi, listen to me, I..."

"There's nothing to explain. If you really want to explain, go help the prince, he needs manpower."

Feng Yixuan was taken aback, Tian Xiaomǐ had already walked far away holding Wan'er.

If you really want to explain, go help the prince. What does Tian Xiaomi mean by this

Du Gucheng came out from Tian Xiaomi's place and ran into the steward. Seeing Feng Lingxi holding a basin and following behind Du Gucheng, he hurried forward, "Your Highness, Your Highness, where are you going"

獨孤城 stopped his steps, and looked at the housekeeper's curious gaze, his eyes scanning up and down.

"Shall the King and the Queen have to inform the steward where they are going"

The steward's face changed drastically as he quickly explained, "Of course not, I was just worried about the princess's health. After all, she is the Saintess of the Yao Clan."

"Housekeeper, you worry too much! How could the Princess and I possibly lose her"

獨孤城's face was full of displeasure. The steward hurriedly apologized, "Your Highness, please forgive me, I spoke out of turn."

Dugu Cheng let out a cold snort and, taking Feng Lingxi's hand, left.

Back in the yard, entering the room he saw Shangguan Huan who had been waiting for a long time. Du Gu Cheng closed the doors and windows, softly said to Feng Lingxi, "Lingxi, you obediently sit here and eat chicken legs. When I'm done, I'll take you out to play."

Wan'er nodded, obediently listening to everyone, making people wonder if she was Feng Lingxi.

Shangguan Huan looked around, "I went out for a while this morning and asked some friends in the Jianghu. They told me the whereabouts of a Miaojiang witch doctor. This person is living in seclusion in the mountains. I gave him some benefits, and he told me his location. I want to go and see if there really is such a person."

"Have Yexi accompany you. If you truly find this person, have Yexi return and inform me."

Shangguan Huan responded and prepared to leave, then suddenly thought of something and instructed, "Your Highness should stay close to the Princess, lest anything unexpected happen."

"Hmm."

After Shangguan Huan left, Dugu City took Feng Lingxi out of the mansion. The housekeeper saw them leave and went to report to Li Wuyan. Li Wuyan just had people keep an eye on them and did not react in any other way.

"Master, they seem to suspect that the Queen's illness has another cause."

Li Wuyan slowly rolled the pills in his hand, "So what What difference does it make if you know or don't know"

“That Tian Xiaomi seems to know a lot, Master. Shall we…” The subordinate made a slashing motion across his throat. Li Wu-yan raised his eyes, the silver needle in his hand flew over and pierced the man’s body. The man fell to his knees with cold sweat beading on his forehead.

"Don't be bad."

"The subordinate knows his mistake, the master should show mercy."

Li Wuyan placed the pills into a box, neatly arranging them. He set it aside, then took a silk handkerchief to wipe his hands, his actions graceful and noble.

How is things in the capital How is Emperor Yuan Zhao getting along with Prince Yu

Everything was just as the master had guessed.

"Where is Luo Li now"

Li Wuyan raised his hand, "Tell him I want to see him."

"Understood, sir."

Li Wuyan poured the remaining medicinal liquid from his alchemy into a nearby bathtub. As soon as the liquid dropped in, all the fish in the tub flipped onto their bellies and died from the poison.

Dugu Cheng took Feng Lingxi to various pastry shops and taverns in the city. As long as Feng Lingxi liked something, she ate it all. Although Feng Lingxi was a good eater, Dugu Cheng calculated that her current food intake was slightly larger than an ordinary person's, much like a pregnant woman's.

As for Feng Lingxi, after finishing her meal, within an hour she would feel sleepy. And when she said she was tired, she would cling to Dugu City and insist on sleeping, no matter where they were or what the occasion.

Du Gu Cheng recorded Feng Ling Xi's daily changes according to this, waiting for Shangguan Huan to give him a message.

Over the past three days, Feng Ling Xi's food intake and sleep time have remained relatively consistent, with no significant changes.iance with the Crown Prince of Xigu Country, wouldn't she also be the EmpressBut she didn't want to, perhaps in this world, only she was not interested in the position of Empress.What she wanted was s...
