HCB Chapter 136 Poison in the Body
Chapter 136 Poison in the Body
The Amber Mercenary Group has limited funds and there are many people in the group, so they can only settle here.
Mu Qingli changed her appearance in front of Mu Zhanxiao. Mu Zhanxiao had heard his granddaughter mention that she had changed her appearance outside before, but he was still surprised when he saw it with his own eyes this time, and looked at her several times.
Mu Qingli did not let Mu Zhanxiao go either. He took out a pill and gave it to him: "Grandpa, this is the Rejuvenating Pill. It can change your appearance."
Mu Qingli did not give the matching Qi-Resting Pill to Grandpa Mu. After all, Grandpa Mu's current cultivation level is top-notch. As long as the Spirit King is not around, no one will be able to tell that his appearance is fake.
Mr. Mu went down without saying anything, still looking like an old man, but completely different from before.
Mu Qingli was very satisfied with the result. He got off the carriage and followed him into the Amber Mercenary Group.
As soon as he entered the door, he met an acquaintance - Zhou Changan, who had asked Mu Qingli for help before.
Zhou Changan stopped immediately when he saw Mu Qingli, then his face was filled with surprise: "My benefactor! Why are you here? Is there anything I can help you with?"
As he spoke, several people looked over here, and Zhou Changan immediately introduced them: "This is the benefactor who helped us get the spirit beast heart today."
The others seemed to have heard this as well and immediately ran over and invited her to sit inside.
Mu Qingli followed them in and asked about Zhou Changan's condition before he was injured: "I heard that one of your friends was injured. How is he doing now?"
Zhou Changan's originally excited face instantly fell: "We just got back too, but we just went to look for Master Gu Dan, but he's not here either. We can only continue to wait."
"Alchemist...you said his last name is Gu? Is it Gulis?"
When Mu Qingli heard this surname, he subconsciously thought of Guris.
Zhou Changan nodded immediately when he heard the name. "En En, do you know Gulis too? He's not from Tianlin Country. We went to Feiyu Country on our mission this time, and we met him there."
Mu Qingli nodded slightly: "I don't know him, I just heard his name, and when I heard his last name was Gu, I wanted to ask."
Mu Qingli paused at this point and continued, "I also know a little bit about alchemy. If you're at ease, could you let me go see your friend? This is my grandfather. Can he come with me?"
When Zhou Changan heard this, he invited Mu Qingli and Old Man Mu to go and check it out without any precautions.
Mu Qingli felt that he agreed too quickly and subconsciously asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will harm him?"
"Benefactor, what are you talking about? You gave us the spirit beast's heart, and you saved us. If I continue to be on guard against you, wouldn't that be disheartening?"
Zhou Changan looks simple, but he is very clear-sighted about some things.
Mu Qingli also smiled: "Just call me Li Qing, no need to call me benefactor."
Although Grandpa Mu didn't say anything, he felt more at ease when he saw his granddaughter and Zhou Changan having a good chat.
Zhou Changan also smiled innocently: "Okay, from now on I will call you Li Qing."
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the door of the wounded man. Zhou Changfeng, who was inside, heard the conversation outside and thought that Zhou Changan had invited an alchemist.
"Chang'an, is the ancient alchemist here?"
Zhou Changan immediately replied when he heard the voice: "Brother, Pharmacist Gu is not here, but I met Li Qing, she knows a little about alchemy, so I invited her over."
When Mu Qingli heard Zhou Changan's address, he instantly understood the relationship between the two. At first, he thought that their names were just a coincidence, so he imagined that they were actually brothers.
When Zhou Changfeng in the room heard the name Li Qing, he immediately came out to greet her. When he saw Mu Qingli, a smile appeared on his face: "Miss Li Qing, you actually know how to make pills. Please come in quickly."
Zhou Changfeng's attitude was very respectful. After all, his friend's life was hanging by a thread, and it was so difficult to find an alchemist. If he couldn't invite the ancient pharmacist, Mu Qingli was the only life-saving straw.
"Can I see the wounded first?"
Mu Qingli asked.
Zhou Changfeng immediately took two steps back and brought her to the injured person.
Mu Qingli took a look and saw that the man's face was pale and his breathing was intermittent, as if he would lose his breath and die in the next second.
Mu Qingli took the patient's pulse and confirmed that the injury was not serious, but he had been poisoned.
She took out a king-level pill, dripped a drop of Biling Spring water on the pill, and put it in the wounded man's mouth.
"It's nothing serious. He'll wake up in about a cup of tea."
Mu Qingli estimated the approximate time and gave a range.
This surprised Zhou Changfeng and the others. The ancient pharmacist said it was very serious last time, and the injured person had not woken up since the injury, which made him think that the injury was very serious.
Mu Qingli casually explained: "The reason why he is unconscious is because of the poison in his body. I have just detoxified him."
Ordinary detoxification only requires silver needles, but Mu Qingli has Biling Spring Water, which is more convenient than using silver needles and will also make the patient wake up faster.
Normally, she would not give Biling Spring Water to anyone, but the wounded man had been poisoned for so long, and if he was not detoxified quickly, he might really die.
Zhou Changfeng didn't know what he was thinking about after hearing this, and his face looked a little bad, but thinking that his friend had escaped from the hands of death, he said with great gratitude:
"Ms. Li Qing, thank you very much for saving my friend. If it weren't for you, he might..."
Seeing that he had his own thoughts, Mu Qingli didn't deliberately point it out to him. He just pretended not to care and asked, "Didn't Master Gu Dan tell you before that he was poisoned?"
When Zhou Changfeng heard the words "Master Gu Dan", his brows furrowed tightly, but he did not hide it from Mu Qingli:
“He never said it, but I think he was the one who poisoned me.
After Chen Shu was injured, he was the only one who came into contact with him besides the rest of us. He was injured while trying to save us, and we've been friends for many years, so it's impossible for him to poison us. The biggest suspect is Master Gu Dan."
Mu Qingli admired Zhou Changfeng's reaction speed very much, as he was able to see the problem at the first moment.
Zhou Changan, who was standing behind him, was instantly furious after hearing these words. "What a jerk! We gave him 10,000 Black Mysterious Crystals in vain. He's almost drained the entire mercenary group! Next time we see him, I'm going to give him a beating!"
Zhou Changfeng glanced at him and said, "That old man is a sixth-level spiritual master. Can you defeat him?"
Zhou Changan was filled with rage, unable to vent it. He secretly vowed in his heart that he must practice hard and take revenge in the future.
Zhou Changfeng concealed his emotions very well and even apologized to Mu Qingli: "I am sorry to have made a fool of myself, Miss Li Qing, but I am very grateful for your help today. Since we have no use for this spirit beast heart, we should naturally return it to you.
How many Xuan Crystals do you think are needed to pay for my friend's medical treatment?"
