Chapter 24 024. The Four Treasures(1/2)
Poison
However, she saw that Si Bao hadn't woken up yet. Logically speaking, the sound of firecrackers just now was extremely loud, and no matter how deep he slept, he should wake up.
But now, the child is still sleeping soundly, without being disturbed by the outside world at all.
Gu Xiaoxiao frowned slightly, sensing something was wrong.
She walked forward, pushed Si Bao gently, and called him again, but there was still no response. She had a bad feeling in her heart.
Then my hand touched his pulse, which beat slowly, sometimes faster and sometimes slower. Occasionally there was a missing beat, and the pulse became weaker and weaker.
She frowned deeply, her pulse... was poisonous!
This poison is even very familiar, it is the same poison as Zhou Zeyun's before.
However, because the poison in Si Bao's body did not last long and was nourished by her spiritual spring water during this period, it was not as serious as when she first saw Zhou Zeyun.
However, children are physically weaker than adults, so the poison corrodes very quickly.
I saw the fourth treasure alive and kicking before, so I didn't check his body. I didn't check the second treasure, Dabao, either. I still blame her for negligence...
She immediately called Dabao and Erbao over.
"What's wrong, mother?" Erbao ran over and said.
Dabao followed closely into the west room and stood next to Erbao, looking at Gu Xiaoxiao with some confusion.
Erbao was very anxious. He and his eldest brother were still watching the uncles building the wall when their mother called them over. He was still in high spirits.
Those uncles' jobs look very interesting, and their arms are very strong. If he wants to be like that, no one will dare to bully him!
Gu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything. He took their wrists and gently pressed their pulses with his fingertips, checking them carefully.
Both Dabao and Dabao were a little stunned and stood motionless.
After a while, Gu Xiaoxiao loosened his fingers and took a long breath. Fortunately, neither of them was poisoned.
But why? Do Si Bao and Zhou Zeyun have this kind of poison on them? It seems that she needs to talk to Zhou Zeyun.
Fortunately, there are still medicinal materials left when treating Zhou Zeyun last time, allowing her to exist in the space. At this time, the four treasures can also be detoxified. However, after all, the child's body resistance is weak, even if there is repair fluid secreted by the equipment,
It still takes a while to recover after detoxification!
Who planted this poison on them? There may be a reason for Zhou Zeyun to be investigated, but to target a child, Si Bao was probably only a few months old when the poison was administered, she really didn't expect that such a poison could be done to them.
What reason!
Seeing that his mother was deep in thought for a long time without speaking, Erbao said loudly: "Mom, is there anything else? It's okay. My eldest brother and I are going out!"
Dabao stared at Gu Xiaoxiao's face, his eyes darkened. The woman's expression at this time was the same as when she secretly took Sanbao's pulse, and was even more serious than then.
Is it... is there something wrong with his and Erbao's health? Apart from frequent nightmares, he doesn't feel any discomfort anymore...
Then he turned to Erbao and said, "Erbao, you go out to play first."
As the saying goes, an eldest brother is like a father. His eldest brother is sometimes calmer and calmer than his father, so he is still a little afraid of his eldest brother in his heart, especially when his eldest brother is as serious as he is now.
He had no choice but to obey the elder brother's words, not to mention that he wanted to go out in the first place. So he nodded to the elder brother and Erbao left.
After Er Bao left, Dabao stared at Gu Xiaoxiao who seemed to be deep in thought. After looking at it for a moment, he suddenly said softly: "What's wrong with our bodies? Tell me, I can bear it!"
Gu Xiaoxiao suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Dabao, knowing that the child was thinking too much again.
I sighed softly in my heart, what should I do if my child is too sensitive? It is not a good thing.
Then he explained: "You are fine! ... It's Si Bao, he is sick!"
Gu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything about the poisoning. Just like when Zhou Zeyun was poisoned, she just explained it as an illness! After all, outside doctors all came to this conclusion, and they couldn't tell what kind of illness he had.
Dabao pursed his lips slightly, but his expression did not relax, "How is it? What's the disease? Can you...can save it?"
Gu Xiaoxiao raised his eyebrows, "What do you think?"
Dabao was stunned for a moment, then realized in an instant that she could be saved...
He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you!"
He seems to be used to saying thank you to her now, and he can only say thank you, and he can't do anything else.
"You don't need to thank me, just be your big brother and pay more attention to your brothers from now on." She waved her hand, her eyes fell on Si Bao's delicate little face, and she said with a deep look.
"Okay, go out and close the door."
Dabao's eyes darkened, and after staring at Gu Xiaoxiao for a few more times, he finally turned around and walked out without saying anything.
He can't help her.
The door was closed, and there was no third person in the room. She took out the medicinal materials and instruments from the space, and repeated the previous steps of detoxifying Zhou Zeyun, except this time the object was the four treasures.
Fortunately, she collected enough at that time, otherwise it would have taken a long time to collect again.
After a few moments, the detoxification was completed, and after packing her things, she tucked Si Bao into bed, poured a few drops of spiritual spring water directly into his mouth, and then went out.
This time the physical damage is very serious, and he must replenish his body in the future. Let him have a good rest. I am afraid he will have to sleep until tomorrow. The dripping of spiritual spring water will also prevent him from becoming weaker when he is unable to eat.
Then she went to the east room to find Zhou Zeyun. She had many questions in her mind. What had happened to these children? I'm afraid only Zhou Zeyun could give her the answer!
But she didn't expect that Zhou Zeyun didn't give her the answer she wanted...
"What! The Four Treasures are also poisoned? How could this happen?!" He slapped the desk and stood up.
"Don't you know where this poison came from? Then how did you get poisoned?" Gu Xiaoxiao looked at him with her arms crossed. She saw that his eyes were full of surprise and he really didn't understand the situation. She felt a little depressed inside.
.
"I really don't know! You said I was poisoned. The doctor couldn't detect the symptoms before, so how could I know that I was poisoned!" Zhou Zeyun said softly.
"Then you have no memory of how you got it? You should know when you started to feel uncomfortable!" Gu Xiaoxiao frowned, really having no clue!
"When did I feel uncomfortable..." Zhou Zeyun thought for a moment, "Oh! I know this. Not long after I learned martial arts outside, I also worked as a nurse at that time, but gradually I felt that I couldn't gather my energy and my whole body was weak.
Later, he was too weak to fulfill the duties of Brother Xiao's personal bodyguard, so he resigned."
After hearing this, Gu Xiaoxiao fell into deep thought, learning martial arts?...
Suddenly her eyes flashed, and she had an idea. She knew before that this poison was a chronic poison, and would not be noticed by the poisoned person at first, but would only slowly erode his body.
However, the reason why Zhou Zeyun noticed it later was because he learned martial arts!
After learning martial arts, it promotes the onset of toxicity and accelerates the speed of falling asleep. Moreover, people who learn martial arts pay special attention to the use of breath, so it is easy to notice that it is difficult for the body to condense Qi, and the loss of power is also particularly obvious.
The poisoner makes it impossible for them to practice martial arts in this life. As long as they practice martial arts, the poison will be aggravated and their lives will be short.
But even if you become a scholar, as the poison erodes you day after day, you will end up just a useless person, or you will become stupid day by day, or you will die in a deep sleep.
You can really feel the deep fear of Zhou Zeyun by the person who used this poison! His life will definitely be cut off. But... why? Who would be afraid of a person who walks out of a small village? There is no power or power.
Why should he bother with this when he has nothing to rely on?
Even the fourth treasure is so young, what should people worry about? To poison such a young child! And the other three were not poisoned, it seems that it was specifically targeted at the fourth treasure and Zhou Zeyun.
Gu Xiaoxiao couldn't figure it out, but fortunately she detoxified them. She had a feeling that there must be some conspiracy. What they knew now was just the tip of the iceberg!
But no matter what, when the storm comes, she will block it. She wants to see who dares to take a life from her!
She also thought about the fact that Si Bao in the original book was kept in the house by Dabao because he was stupid and could not leave the house. This was probably due to the poison! Because his symptoms were not exactly the same as those of Zhou Zeyun, others should not know that he was also
After being poisoned and delayed for a long time, it became like this!
In the original book, Si Bao did not have the opportunity to learn martial arts, so he did not speed up the onset of poison, causing him to lose his life. But now because of her arrival, because Si Bao practiced boxing with her, the toxins in his body broke out early, so he started like Zhou Zeyun.
Prolonged drowsiness.
This was good, so that she could detect his condition in time and have time to detoxify him.
She felt that she would encounter this kind of poison again in the future. If the person she wanted to harm was not killed, she would naturally take other actions.
But that’s something to consider in the future, so she’s not afraid!
At this moment, she thought about Dabao's situation again, and the nightmare he told her...
"By the way! Has anything happened to Dabao before? For example...was kidnapped?" She looked at Zhou Zeyun and changed the topic.
Now that I'm talking to Zhou Zeyun, let's ask him everything he wants to know.
Zhou Zeyun was stunned for a moment. Maybe he didn't expect her to change the topic so quickly. Maybe it was because of her question...
"No...no, why do you ask?"
She didn't notice Zhou Zeyun's somewhat erratic eyes. She was just immersed in her own thinking. After hearing Zhou Zeyun's answer, she didn't study it in detail. Maybe she was thinking too much. Maybe she was affected by something during the day, so she didn't think about it at night.
I would have that nightmare. After all, Zhou Zeyun said nothing happened.
"Well, that's nothing." Then he thought about it and said, "That's right! After lunch, I will go to town to buy some paper and pens for you and the children. You can help watch the progress of their house building at home. I want to take advantage of this opportunity.
Master hasn't come yet, so you should teach them how to read."
Anyway, it’s okay to stay at home, so let the kids experience the academic atmosphere in advance.
She didn't want to really wait for Professor Xu to come over and look down on the kids.
Zhou Zeyun nodded and accepted.
Gu Xiaoxiao added: "After the house is built, I plan to ask Teacher Xu to come over and teach me. I will also need to let him live at home by then. I'll let you know in advance."
