Chapter 598 - Tsukisho-sama Chitose 23
But what is the play, and how much is true or false, she doesn’t know.
She has no way of determining whether the poisoning of the well has anything to do with the poisonous girl, and whether it was intentional or not.
The village chief’s voice was pleading, “I wonder if this girl has a way to detoxify?”
He knew it was a very embarrassing thing.
The other party just pointed out the source, and he will ask if he can detoxify.
As the mayor of the village, he still has eyesight. He recognizes that this girl is unusual, and there are guards by his side.
“It depends on their situation.” She would not make promises at will, nor would she easily accept a thing.
On the way, the dark guard told her that it is not advisable to carry the body after being poisoned, so as to prevent the toxin from spreading faster, and then there is no way to save people.
When Aunt Xu heard the conversation here, she walked towards Luo Ci quickly, excitedly wanting to hold Luo Ci’s hand, as if she wanted to pull her directly to detoxify, and almost jumped on her.
The dark guard stood in front of Luo Ci with a cold expression, “Don’t disturb my lady, I’ll check the situation for Ling Lang.”
A lot of lives were contaminated on the hands of the dark guard, and with a cold and evil spirit, Aunt Xu was shocked by this momentum and recovered, and was no longer stunned like she was holding the last straw.
She wiped her tears, apologized and thanked again.
The dark guard’s voice was respectful, “Miss, you can stay outside the house, if you have subordinates, you can go in.”
Inside the house is Aunt Xu’s son, and the county owner is a daughter’s home and has nothing to do with this family, so it is not suitable to enter.
After a stick of incense, the dark guard came out of the room, “It has been detoxified, rest for two days, eat a light diet, and drink more water to gradually recover.”
The village chief and Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu had happy expressions on their faces, and the village chief quickly asked, “Can you detoxify the rest of the village?”
The dark guard said slowly, “If it’s been poisoned for a long time, there’s nothing I can do.” He took out a bottle of medicine, “Give these to the poisoned person first, and I’ll try to detoxify them in turn.”
He paused, “I said in advance, I’m just doing my best, if someone is too poisonous to resist…”
The village chief hurriedly answered, “It’s definitely not the fault of the young hero! We will bear it by ourselves!”
The dark guard was satisfied.
If it wasn’t for the county master’s entrustment, if he wasn’t so cold-blooded in his heart, he wouldn’t be so patient.
When the village chief learned that the well water was poisoned, he ordered the well water to be banned, and asked the teenager to organize other villagers to check other wells and other water sources one by one.
The dark guard said respectfully to Luo Ci again, “Miss can go back to the carriage to rest first, and the subordinates will be back soon.”
Luo Ci shook her head, “Nothing, I still have something to ask.”
The village chief took the dark guard to the homes of other poisoned patients.
Only Aunt Xu and his wife and Luo Ci were left on the spot.
God knows how desperate Aunt Xu was when the doctor said that there was no cure, but now that her son has saved his life, she is very grateful to Luo Ci and the two of them, and now she takes the initiative, “What do you want to ask, girl? I must tell the truth.”
“Your village took in a woman yesterday?”
Aunt Xu replied, “That’s what happened. Yesterday, the girl came to my house to ask for water, and I scooped a ladle for her with a water ladle. Later, seeing that she was pitiful, I took her in for one night.”
“She left in a hurry this morning without even having breakfast.”
“How did her performance yesterday differ from her performance this morning?”
Aunt Xu was a little unclear, but she replied seriously, “That is, her face was wrong this morning, she was extremely pale, and she was in a hurry to leave. I also asked her if she was unwell and if she wanted to see the doctor…”
She seemed to have thought of something, “Speaking of which, when I mentioned the doctor, she seemed to be greatly stimulated and retorted loudly.”
Luo Ci made up her mind and confirmed again, “What’s the difference between her clothes?”
Aunt Xu became inexplicably uneasy, “It’s a bit like the clothes from the Western Regions.”
If there is no other reason, and it corresponds to the plot in that play, no accident, it should be caused by the poisonous girl.
The poisonous girl came from Southern Xinjiang, which is in a region in the Western Regions.
It’s just that it shouldn’t be intentional, otherwise, he wouldn’t have left with a guilty conscience.
“How old is that woman?”
“About fourteen or fifteen years old.”
The poisonous girl is young now, and the toxins in her body are not so powerful, and they will not be immediately fatal.
She didn’t know what happened later, because she left as early as eighteen years old, and there was no new emperor at that time.
Because Luo Ci asked these questions, Aunt Xu gradually realized that the poisoning might have been caused by the girl she took in before, and her face was pale.
If someone in the village could not be rescued, wouldn’t he be a sinner?
She was a little nervous, “Is this poison related to the girl I took in?”
Luo Ci nodded slightly, “As expected, it should be.”
After all, this kind of thing is not to be said. If it happens in the future, what should I do if the same thing happens.
Just because the poisonous woman made the well water contaminated with toxins but did not tell Aunt Xu, but fled with a guilty conscience, Luo Ci did not like her.
There was a slight worry on her face, if it could not be solved as soon as possible, the consequences would be more serious.
After about three quarters of an hour, the dark guard came back.
All the poisoned villagers have been rescued. Before leaving, the dark guard gave them medicine and let them go down into the well water. Luo Ci asked the poisonous girl where to leave, and took the dark guard back to the carriage to continue on the road.
The direction of travel is exactly the direction of Lingwu Mountain Villa, and maybe we will meet on the road.
The horses may not be completely rested, but they are not as hot as before. After drinking water and eating some grass, they recovered a little bit of energy. After a short while, they can reach the foot of the villa.
*
Chu Zhi had been waiting at the foot of the villa for a long time. He knew that she would arrive today, and his heart beat a little faster, as if something was about to come out.
He counted the time silently, waiting for her to arrive.
It’s just that he waited from morning to noon and didn’t see anyone. The boy brought the food box, and he just took a few bites at random.
He began to worry if something happened on the way.
A figure appeared in his sight, the man staggered, and Chu Zhi was a little disappointed.
He knew it wasn’t his junior sister.
But when the man saw the people on his side, he trotted over with joy, and he spoke with a very obvious accent, some lame, and neither the clothes nor the accent did not resemble the natives.
“Sir, all my entanglements have been taken away by bandits. Can you take me in for a few days? Let me write to my family.”
This is not true.
Chu Zhi coldly refused, “No.”
He frowned and took a few steps to the side, she blocked his view.
The woman couldn’t believe it, she didn’t expect someone to refuse so coldly.
She still wanted to say something, and the disciple beside Chu Zhi stepped forward and said, “Miss, let’s find someone else.”
This disciple is outspoken and out of kindness. If the senior brother is not happy, the woman will suffer even more.
