Chapter 119.2 - Incurable
Half a moment later, she spoke softly, “Method, there is one but it’s a bit horrific.”
“Daoist priest, please speak.”
“Thousand Days Intoxicated’ is indeed incurable, but it can be moved to another person’s body.”
“Then I’ll immediately find someone now!” Ruan Xiuren imagined it was some sort of hard condition.
But if it was just finding someone, that was too easy.
Lou Qingwu paused.
She looked at Ruan Xiuren deeply before speaking, “It can’t just be an ordinary person, it must be a person who is of close blood to your concubine.”
Hearing this, Ruan Xiuren’s face paled.
Ning family had already fallen to ruins, Ning’er was an only daughter and both of her parents had died already.
Where did she have any living relatives left?
Thinking to here, a name suddenly popped up in Ruan Xiuren’s mind.
His expression became slightly complicated before muttering, “Really … it has to be someone of close blood?”
Lou Qingwu nodded her head, “Yes.”
Looking at Ruan Xiuren’s deep gaze, Lou Qingwu gripped her prayer beads tightly, “Method, I’ve given you one. If the Ruan family head doesn’t have any other business, I’ll take my leave.”
From the Ruan residence, the horse carriage slowly meandered through the streets.
Thousand Face sat inside the carriage, watching Lou Qingwu with an admiring expression, “Master, who knew that you’d actually be able to cure ‘Thousand Days Intoxicated’, that voodoo worm. You’re too great, but why is it that when your blood fused with ninth madam’s, that she’d be able to wake up?”
Lou Qingwu seemed to be tired, from the moment that she’d left the Ruan residence, her eyes had been closed.
Hearing Thousand Face’s words, she spoke softly, “The ninth madam’s blood has already been contaminated with ‘Thousand Days Intoxicated’’s poison and her body’s voodoo worm has already drank enough of her body’s blood. So it’s already very poisonous. But my blood had no poison in it and when it flows inside the ninth madam’s body, the voodoo worm will be shocked, shocked into temporarily falling asleep. At that time, the ninth madam will naturally wake up.”
“That complicated? But master, you’re really smart. You told the Ruan family head that only the closest related person to the ninth madam could save her, and isn’t that you? At that time, the Ruan family head will definitely come to beg you. Once the second madam knew, wouldn’t she go crazy with anger? If the Ruan family head knew that you were lying to him, he’d definitely be so mad he’d get an internal injury.”
Lou Qingwu’s body slightly tensed up before slowly opening her eyes.
Her eyes were briefly exhausted before after a long time, she spoke quietly, “I didn’t lie to him. I didn’t cure her poison then, I only used my blood to make the voodoo worm temporarily sleep. If I wanted to completely cure her poison, he really would need my help.”
“How would you … help?” Thousand Face suddenly had a bad feeling.
“How would you … help?” Thousand Face suddenly had a bad feeling.
Lou Qingwu’s eyes grew deeper before softly speaking, “Lead the voodoo worm onto my body.”
Only of closest blood would be able to draw out the voodoo worm and it was the only way to cure the voodoo worm.
Thousand Face heard this and suddenly widened his eyes, “Master, you wouldn’t really want … to …”

TL note:
Poor baby LQW. Her mother was so ungrateful in her last lifetime. Will LQW actually be that selfless??
Leave a comment and follow for Feng Yege, he’s slowly making more appearances y’all xx
Could it be that the mother lost her memories? I mean the woman must hv despise the guy who is the brother of the concubine that kept abusing and scheming against her...
ReplyDeleteThat's what I was leaning towards but we got a very ambiguous scene of a woman who looked like the ninth madam avoiding LQW previously 🤔🤔
DeleteXiuren had said that he had done several tricks to get this woman into his bed. So it would be possible. Maybe she wasn't a bad mother. Just one who had been tricked and then poisoned.
ReplyDeleteThank you
Fair analysis and very optimistic 💗💗
DeleteSON OF A. I JINXED IT DIDN'T I?!
ReplyDeleteThis is not cool author, get out of my headspace. (nevermind this was written before i thought of it, BUT STILL!)
I don't think this is a good idea though.... Even if you wanted to save your mother, you'd just make another person go through more hardships to save you AND he'd need to work even harder since I doubt this current method works.
Ya jinxed it, now the whole story's screwed 😬
DeleteOn a more serious note, LQW is very selfish in that regard. She does what she thinks is right and thinks with her heart a lot. Filial piety is a really strong thing in Chinese culture so it's understandable. But she just doesn't know that there are people who also love and care for her deeply (me) 😫😫
It's okay for now, Feng Yege coughing up some blood could be fun. :P It gives LQW a reason to nurse him back to health!
Delete... Although she's more likely to spend that time finding the "culprit" who forced him to cough up blood without realizing it's actually herself. :P
That ... sounds more plausible than I'd like to imagine 😶😶
DeleteI think this is her way of controlling thrvaruan head. I couldn’t be to selflessly sacrifice herself because she have too much hatred and vengeance in her heart. She hasn’t accomplish that yet.
ReplyDeleteThis is like a game of 4D chess 😰😰
DeleteI wouldn't be so selfless either but filial piety is super strong in Chinese culture 🤔
Thank you for the chapter~
ReplyDeleteThanks for reading 💗💗
DeleteWell.. if I were LQW's mother, I'd picked Ruan Yiuren than Lou Qufeng at any given day. He has brains for business, rich enough, devoted enough. If he had her as his furen on the first chance their daughter won't suffer unlike LQW.
ReplyDeleteBut the difference between the proper wife and a concubine 😬😬
