Chapter 231 The Poison of Transforming Gu

The Chu residence.

Chu Yan stayed here for several days, but Prince Xiao showed no intention of sending anyone to apologize or ask for forgiveness, and she had no plans to return to Prince Xiao's residence.

She spent her days tending flowers and playing with birds at the Chu residence, living a rather leisurely life.

Sometimes she even thought that if she never returned to the Xiao Prince's Mansion, it would be nice to spend her whole life in the Chu Mansion.

That day, after Chu Yan got up early and finished her breakfast, she was tending to the flowers and plants in the courtyard when a servant hurriedly walked in from outside.

"Your Highness, something terrible has happened! The person you brought back this time is sick. He is currently vomiting and having diarrhea, and is unconscious."

A servant said anxiously.

"How could this happen? Did you send the royal physician to take a look?"

Chu Yan was startled. She asked with concern while putting down what she was holding and preparing to go with the servant to take a look.

Inside the side room, Chu Yan's mother and sister-in-law stood to one side with some disdain, while one or two servants were cleaning up the man's filth, and the family doctor shook his head unhappily beside them.

Why would he suddenly do this?

As soon as Chu Yan entered the room, she anxiously asked the family physician.

"Your Highness, the poison in his body has flared up. I am truly powerless to cure him!"

The physician sighed helplessly.

His medical skills were limited, and he had no way to cure this kind of rare poison.

"Yan'er, is this person about to die? Look at him, he's in such a state. Does he have any family? If not, we should..."

Throw him out!

Chu Yan's sister-in-law looked at Chu Yan with a troubled expression. Although she didn't finish her sentence, her eyes made Chu Yan understand what she meant.

Chu Yan glanced at the unconscious man, a hint of pity flashing in her eyes, especially when she saw his handsome face, which always gave her a sense of familiarity.

But this was in the Chu family, and she was already a married daughter. Her mother also seemed to disapprove of her continuing to take in such a man. Only her father and brother took her in.

“Sister-in-law, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. I brought him back, and I don’t want to see him get into trouble like this. After I heal him, I will definitely arrange another place for him.”

Chu Yan hesitated for a moment, then decided to find a way to cure the man first, and then make other arrangements for him.

Since the imperial physicians can't cure her, she'll have no choice but to trouble the Crown Princess.

So, Chu Yan sent someone to the Crown Prince's residence to deliver a message to Su Liluo, and Su Liluo arrived shortly after receiving the message.

"Yan'er, what happened?"

Su Liluo, worried, walked in from outside, led by a servant.

"Luo'er, please help me save someone! See if he can still be saved!"

When Chu Yan saw Su Liluo coming over, she immediately looked at her with hope, and then led her to the man's side.

Who is this person?

When Su Liluo saw the unfamiliar man on the bed, she was surprised, and at the same time felt that the man looked slightly familiar.

"I found him on the street. He looks so pitiful. He's been poisoned and the poison is acting up. Luo'er, can you save him?"

"Found it on the street? Yan'er, you...?"

Su Liluo was surprised; she hadn't expected Chu Yan to casually bring home a man she'd picked up on the street.

"Luo'er, you should save him first. I'll tell you about the rest later!"

Seeing that the man was not in good condition, Chu Yan quickly urged him on.

Su Liluo didn't say anything more and reached out to examine the man.

A man's pulse is weak and unpredictable, sometimes disappearing and sometimes appearing, like a sign of impending death, but occasionally it becomes strong and powerful.

It's like pushing someone to the edge of ice and fire, something that's neither a poison nor a curse.

Su Liluo had never seen such a disease before.

"Kongkong, what kind of poison has he been poisoned with? It looks a bit like the Gu poison described in the medical book in my space. Am I right?"

Because Su Liluo had only read about the Gu poison and had never actually seen it, she was not sure if her judgment was correct.

"Yes, it's the Transformation Gu! I never imagined that there would be anyone in this world who could concoct such a poison as the Transformation Gu! It's truly poisonous! The Transformation Gu is arguably the most poisonous poison in the world!"

Space gasped in surprise.

"It really is a Gu poison!"

Upon receiving a positive answer, Su Liluo was greatly surprised and couldn't help but glance at the man lying on the bed a few more times.

The person who can refine the Gu-transforming poison is definitely not an ordinary person. For someone to administer the Gu-transforming poison to him, this man must also be of extraordinary status.

Do you even know who he really is?

Su Lilu asked Chu Yan.

"I don't know, he doesn't like to talk. Luo'er, can you cure him?"

Chu Yan shook her head.

Upon hearing that Chu Yan didn't know, Su Liluo began to doubt the man, unsure whether he was good or bad.

"Luo'er, don't you also think he looks familiar?"

Seeing that Su Liluo was staring at the man with a complicated expression, Chu Yan spoke up.

"Hmm, it looks familiar, but I can't quite place it."

Su Liluo nodded.

At this moment, Chu Yan glanced between Su Liluo and the man.

After a moment, he said, "I've always felt that he looks familiar, but I couldn't figure out why until I saw you sitting together today. I realized that Luo'er looks a lot like you!"

Does she look like her?

Su Liluo was also taken aback by Chu Yan's sudden words. She stared at the man's face for a long time and finally realized that he did look somewhat like him.

"Luo'er, since you two look so alike, you must do your best to save him. Although I don't know who he is, I can sense that he's not a bad person, just a pitiful one."

He's been very aloof these days, showing no signs of wanting to harm anyone or deliberately trying to get close to anyone. He's been silent and stays indoors all day.

"Okay, I'll give it a try!"

Seeing Chu Yan's repeated pleas, and seeing the man's face that resembled her own, Su Liluo finally decided to give it a try.

She had read in medical books that the poison of the Gu was extremely difficult to cure. Naturally, she could not cure it immediately today, but she could alleviate its toxicity first.

Therefore, Su Liluo instructed Chu Yan to dismiss everyone.

Then, she took out spring water from her spatial storage to prepare medicinal herbs and used the Heavenly Noble Needle on the man.

Half an incense stick later, the man on the bed slowly woke up.

The first thing the man saw when he opened his eyes was the face of an unfamiliar woman. His innate sense of defensiveness made him instinctively want to hide to the side.

His eyes were full of vigilance, like a lone wolf.

"I saved you. Without me, you might not have survived the poisoning and would have died."

Seeing the man's wariness towards her, Su Liluo slowly said something.

"Did you save me?"

Upon hearing this, the man's vigilance eased slightly, and a hint of suspicion appeared in his eyes.

"You said you alleviated my poisoning?"

This woman can actually alleviate the poison she has been afflicted with?
