Chapter 118.2 - Destroy both jade and stone
But he couldn’t say so in front of Ruan Xiuren.
Ruan Xiuren had inner strength, Thousand Face had noticed it with a single glance.
So it’d be easy for him to hear even the smallest sounds.
Thousand Face decided to close his mouth, not saying anything and instead, quietly waiting.
Not too long later, Lou Qingwu tugged at the thread and it quickly returned to her.
Ruan Xiuren stepped out from behind the screen.
When he saw Lou Qingwu’s expression, his expression also became solemn, “Daoist priest, is it not good?”
Lou Qingwu passed the silver thread back to Thousand Face before expressionlessly looking at Ruan Xiuren, “Your madam isn’t sick, she’s poisoned.”
Ruan Xiuren’s forehead jumped, something flashed in his eyes, “Do you know what poison?”
After so long, so many doctors, this was the first to see that Ning’er was poisoned and not infected with some strange and undiagnosable sickness.
Lou Qingwu ordered for Thousand Face to sort the medicinal trunk well before turning around to speak, “I can’t rely on the silver thread to diagnose what poison is. If your madam really can’t be seen, then don’t blame this priest on not having a method. I’ll take my leave!”
After speaking, she didn’t give Ruan Xiuren a single chance before turning around to leave.
How could Ruan Xiuren let her leave?
He quickly went to block the exit, “Daoist priest, please don’t!”
Lou Qingwu looked at him, “Does the Ruan family head have any more orders?”
“That, actually, it’s not that you can’t see her. But seeing as the Daoist priest can already see that she’s poison, I hope that you can see what type of poison it is.”
Lou Qingwu lightly modded, “This Daoist priest will try his hardest.”
“But, I have one request.”
“Ruan family head, please speak.”
“Ruan family head, please speak.”
“After you see my madam, please don’t speak of it to anyone.”
Lou Qingwu’s pupils slightly shrunk, “Of course.”
“Then … please.”
He only hoped that his choice was right this time.
Lou Qingwu’s pupils slightly shrunk, “Of course.”
“Then … please.”
He only hoped that his choice was right this time.
He’d already been forced by Ruan Zhen’s request to the point of frustration.
If this time, he could cure Ning’er’s poison, then he’d be willing to bet.
Lou Qingwu didn’t know Ruan Xiuren’s way of thinking.
She took the medicinal trunk from Thousand Face’s hands and walked past the screen.
She slowly walked towards the bed.
The closer she got, the more she felt her heart was beating faster.
That strange feeling was filling up her mind, she could barely register what she was feeling at the moment.
Right until she walked up to the bed did she lower her eyes to look at the beautiful woman on the bed.
She had her eyes tightly closed, lying peacefully on the bed.
Apart from a slightly pale complexion, she looked like she was just sleeping.
Lou Qingwu’s dazed expression made Ruan Xiuren strangely furrow his brows.
He walked closer behind her and couldn’t help but ask, “Daoist priest, is there something wrong?”
Lou Qingwu shook her head, “Nothing.”
She indifferently lowered her eyes, hiding the emotion in them.
Lou Qingwu went to check the ninth madam’s pulse again.
Even though she knew beforehand, she couldn’t help but feel tht Ruan Zhen was truly vicious.
Her lips tightly pursed together, her expression almost dark and cold.
Ruan Xiuren looked at her, becoming anxious as he held his breath and waited for the diagnosis.
After fifteen minutes, Lou Qingwu took back her hands.
She looked at the ninth madam’s face and tongue before looking down, “This madam’s poison has already been diagnosed.”
“What is it?”
“What is it?”
Lou Qingwu paused before lightly sighing, “The name is called ‘Thousand Days Intoxicated’, it’s a voodoo worm.”
“En?” Ruan Xiuren froze.
“Voodoo worm? Is it hard to cure?”
Lou Qingwu turned to leave.
In a place that Ruan Xiuren couldn’t see, her hands tightly gripped into fists.
Her hatred towards Ruan Zhen grew even further.
When she reached the outside, she calmly spoke, “Normally, it’s not hard to cure voodoo worms. But there are three worms that can’t be cured, the first, ‘Absolute Half Day’, the second, ‘Thousand Voodoo Worm’ and the third …. ‘Thousand Days Intoxicated’.”

TL note:
Ruan Zhen’s a heartless viper, surprise, surprise.
Leave a comment and follow because LQW has a temporary fix xx
.... incurable? Ruan Zhen... >:(
ReplyDeleteMaybe LQW should give her another worm to enjoy. One that lets her sleep with the fishes.
... I didn't mean for that to sound humorous but the idea of putting a worm in Ruan Zhen and having her "sleep" with the fishes using the worm as bait is.... a lot more amusing than it should be.
... I think I'm spending too much time with bloodthirsty mcs lol.
More accurately, the title should be 'incurable with medicine' but it doesn't sound as cool as just 'incurable' by itself.
DeleteYou're killing the sad mood with your dark sense of humour 😑😑
(but that's be hilarious, just imagining Ruan Zhen being hung up like a fish with a hook through her lips makes me feel better about her being an awful person)
Killing... or making it better?! XD
DeleteGive me back my dark mood that I painstakingly curated ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
DeleteI'm with Hale on this That idea is superb.Maybe we could give her all three with some magic to cause the fish in the water to want to eat these worms from the outside in, while she tries to swim away
ReplyDeleteBut if she gets all three, she'd be dead before she even hit the water? 🤔🤔
DeleteThank you for the chapter~
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading 💞💞
