408 Corpse Poison(1/3)
408
Chu Qianhuang met Chen Qianchen's eyes without any evasion and shook her head: "I don't know either."
She seemed to recall something, her eyelashes trembled, and then said, "That person has been chanting 'corpse poison'. I occasionally hear it when I wake up... Another time I saw her writing on paper, but the paper was quickly burned by her."
"But, I don't know what's going on. I just think it must be very important to make her mind so much. It's better to tell you."
Chen Qianchen's eyes became extremely deep, and he stood there in a daze, his eyes seemed to be looking at Chu Qianhuang, and it seemed to have passed through Chu Qianhuang and landed on a point of nothingness.
At this moment, Chu Qianhuang felt that Chen Qianchen was obviously here, but it seemed that he was no longer here.
Chen Qianchen didn't say anything else, just turned around silently and went out directly, feeling absent-minded.
After leaving, Chen Zhi's concerning eyes came to him: "Sister Chen?"
Chen Qianchen couldn't even say the polite words "I'm fine" and said, "Mom, let's talk to the eldest sister here, I'll go out."
"Go. Don't worry about me." Chen Zhi said considerately.
Chen Qianchen forced a smile, hurriedly left Jingren Palace, and rushed to the imperial study room as fast as possible.
"Madam, you came so well," Jingfeng greeted him with a smile, "Jiu Master has just left the court and the person is inside."
Jingfeng only led Chen Qianchen to the door and set a curtain for her, but he didn't go in and was annoying.
There was only Gu Jue and a cat inside.
As soon as Chen Qianchen entered, the young man and the cat on the desk looked at her.
Chen Qianchen pursed his cherry lips and rushed towards Gu Jue without saying a word. He stared at him with a burning look, not paying attention to the black cat on the desk at all.
Gu Jue's eyelashes moved slightly, and he could see that there was a frightened soul hidden under the girl's seemingly calm appearance.
"Come here!" Gu Jue directly stretched out his arms and hugged her, letting her sit on his thighs.
His little girl has always been extremely safe in dealing with people. Even if Gu Jue doesn't ask, he knows that the only thing that can make her panic like this is his.
"What's wrong?" Gu Jue asked softly, his voice so gentle that it was about to drip out of water.
Chen Qianchen pulled his left wrist without saying a word, and pressed the pulse on his wrist again.
A familiar pulsation came from under the fingertips.
His heart veins were still weak, and the toxins in his body were very weak, as if a trace of extremely thin silk was hidden in cotton threads. Because it was too subtle, it was difficult to detect it.
That's right, it's corpse poison.
If she hadn't considered the corpse poison now, she wouldn't have found this tiny corpse poison like silk.
It was her negligence!
In this life, when she found that Gu Jue was not poisoned and her secret injury was not as serious as the point of being incurable in her previous life, she was so happy that all her attention was placed on the small blade in his chest.
In fact, it was because Gu Jue was secretly injured that his heart pulse was weak, which made her ignore the extremely subtle changes in the pulse. It was because she was wrong. She relied too blindly on what she knew in her previous life that she was careless and lost the corpse poison in his body.
If for a healthy person, such a little corpse poison is like a small ant, which is insignificant, but the terribleness of corpse poison lies in the fact that as long as the human body is a little weak, it will have an opportunity to take advantage of it, just like a termite burying a thriving tree bit by bit.
Chen Qianchen did not confirm until this moment that Gu Jue died of poison in his previous life was not because he was poisoned by someone, but because of the poison of corpse.
Thinking of this, Chen Qianchen's eyebrows jumped, his eyes still staring at Gu Jue tightly. There seemed to be a slight crack in his dark pupils, and his eyes became deeper and more complicated.
Gu Jue noticed Chen Qianchen's expression change and asked softly: "Is there anything wrong with my pulse?"
His tone was gentle and calm, as if the vast blue sky could accommodate everything.
Chen Qianchen blinked, then blinked again, his eyes slightly moist, and there was a crystal clear light of tears.
On weekdays, these pairs of black and white, clear and bright phoenix eyes always show a kind of confidence in mastering everything, but now these eyes are aggrieved and pitiful.
She trembled softly, "I...I didn't notice that you were poisoned by corpse."
She has studied medicine for two lifetimes. In order to accumulate experience and accumulate virtue for Gu Jue, she has saved so many people. Others praised her for her excellent medical skills, but she neglected it to her most important person.
If it were his master Lin Miao, he would have discovered the corpse poison in Gu Jue's body long ago.
"Corpsy poison?" Gu Jue asked calmly, raising his eyebrows slightly.
Chen Qianchen pinched the corner of his cuffs with one hand, took a deep breath, his voice a little hard, and explained: "Corpse poison, as the name suggests, is the poison hidden in the corpse."
"There are many people who die on the battlefield and there are many corpses. When the corpse is corrupt, various toxins are easily produced. Especially when the weather is hottest, the corpse corrupts faster, which will also be the time when the corpse poison grows the fastest."
"Many corpse poisons have very strong infectiousness and erosion. People have thin skin. When they are weak and have wounds on their skin, they are easily infected by corpse poison... The worse the body, the faster the corpse poison spreads."
For most ordinary people, as long as they contact the corpse and clean their skin in time, most corpse poisons will not have much impact on them.
If Gu Jue was a general who could only command the army in the rear and stayed away from the battlefield, then he would not have been infected with corpse poison;
If Gu Jue had not been injured in secret, then the little corpse poison he had infected in the north would have been like a small cold he had suffered from a small wind and cold, and would have been cured long ago.
The problem is that Gu Jue was seriously injured in the north. Before he returned to Beijing, the secret injury had tortured him for two years. Because of his weak body, this seamless corpse poison invaded his lungs and accumulated over time.
Chen Qianchen's mind couldn't help but have a past life.
In the last life, after Gu Jue returned to Beijing, his body became worse and worse, and he could not suppress the corpse poison at all. The corpse poison that occurred damaged his heart and invaded his body little by little.
As a result, Gu Jue's body collapsed faster, as if he had entered a vicious cycle. When he finally ended, his ending was that he had exhausted his energy.
At that time, she watched Gu Jue become weaker day by day before her;
Watching him get thinner and thinner;
I would breathe when I watched him walk a few steps;
Seeing that he couldn't even hold up the chess piece later, even when they played chess, he told her to make the move.
Chen Qianchen felt that his heart was so painful.
Every time she recalled the days before his death in her previous life, she felt like her heart was cut, her eyes were slightly red, and her tears were about to fall.
Gu Jue's hand was still clasped on her slender waist, and the other hand picked the tears from her eyelashes with his fingertips, and asked softly: "So, I am a corpse poison, are you going to die?"
Chen Qianchen's eyes suddenly widened, as if he had said something that should have been struck by lightning, and shook his head vigorously: "Of course not."
Gu Jue curled his thin lips slightly and asked again: "If it weren't for you, what would happen to me now?"
Although Gu Jue did not understand medical skills, he was quick-minded and after a little thought, he understood the key.
Before he met Chen Qianchen, the hidden wounds in his body made his body worse and worse. Although Su Mubai, Yun Zhan and others searched for famous doctors for him, every famous doctor said that he was powerless and said that perhaps only the miracle doctor Lin Miao could save him, otherwise he would not live for two years.
However, Lin Miao's whereabouts are uncertain. I heard that in the past two years, Nanhao is not the territory of Daqi. If you want to find someone, you will have to spend some effort. You can't find someone in less than a year or two.
With his secret wounds, if he had not met Chen Qianchen, then at this time, his corpse poison might have invaded his heart veins and was hopeless. In another year or two, his life would have been lingered.
The last point was actually judged by Chen Qianchen's panic at this moment.
If things don’t matter, they will be in chaos.
What she was afraid of was this, she was afraid that he would die.
"You saved me!" Gu Jue's thumb gently rubbed her lower eyelids, erasing a little bit of tears that were overflowing from her eyes.
Yes, she saved him.
Because after returning to Beijing last year, he met her, she gave him medicine, gave him an injection, and helped him to regulate his body little by little. Outsiders don't know, but Gu Jue knew best that she dragged him out bit by bit, who was already in the dead pool.
She helped him take out the piece of iron buried in his body. She allowed him to now ride a horse and pull the bow and swing his sword freely. She made his body healthy, so he could suppress the corpse poison in his body. The corpse poison was not serious enough to invade the heart veins.
Gu Jue put one of Chen Qianchen's hand on his chest, allowing her to sense the powerful heartbeat under his chest.
Beat, beat, beat!
The strong heartbeat told her that he was still alive.
"Jiuxia." Chen Qianchen pressed his palm against his chest even harder, and the corners of his eyes became redder.
She knew that even if he could suppress the corpse poison now, it was not that he could coexist with the corpse poison. It was just that the corpse poison was slower, and the corpse poison was still quietly corroding his heart.
Even the next time he is injured or seriously ill, this corpse poison will expand rapidly with Gu Jue's flesh and blood as nutrients...
If she hadn't discovered it today, she would not dare to let the corpse poison go day by day, and when one day she really reached the point where Gu Jue's heart vein was greatly damaged and the corpse poison intensified, it would likely develop into a situation like a previous life.
By then, the poison will enter the heart vein and it will be difficult for the gods to save them.
She would face the despair of her previous life again, watching Gu Jue become sick little by little, and the oil is gone and the lamp is dry...
And now, it's not too late.
After extreme fear, Chen Qianchen's heart finally began to calm down, and he couldn't stop being grateful.
If she only found out after waiting for another year or two, then...
She couldn't even continue to imagine.
Chen Qianchen adjusted a position on Gu Jue's thigh and turned sideways. She tightly clasped her thin waist with her arms, rubbed her face first, then pressed one ear against his chest, closed her eyes, and listened to his heartbeat.
“Meow?”
The black cat on the desk did not leave, and looked at the two sticky beasts in front of him with a round face, looking puzzled.
Chen Qianchen ignored the cat, still closed his eyes, muttering to himself: "It's okay."
Chen Qianchen sighed again with gratitude, and remembered the conversation with "Chu Qianhuang" yesterday when he was in Baiyun Temple.
Until this moment, Chen Qianchen figured out the cause and effect, why "That Chu Qianhuang" was confident that she could get out of trouble, and why she felt that Ukhagalau could become her support.
This corpse poison is too hidden. If Chen Qianchen did not notice that Gu Jue was infected with corpse poison this time, then, as short as one or two years, as long as three or five years, the corpse poison in Gu Jue's body would be cured without any treatment.
Once Gu Jue dies, who else can stand firm in this Daqi?!
Gu Nanjin is too weak, and Gu Nanjin's several emperors cannot take on the position of emperor. At that time, the great Qi group of dragons will have no leader and will inevitably gradually decline like in their previous lives.
Then, the situation in the Central Plains should go as far as "the Chu Qianhuang" knew, and finally Uhagalao led his troops north and unified the world.
If I were a little careless and did not notice something wrong with "Chu Qianhuang", everything would develop in the future as "Chu Qianhuang" expected.
Just thinking about it, Chen Qianchen felt lingering fear, but still felt scared.
This incident also sounded a wake-up call for Chen Qianchen. She claimed to have experiences in her previous life and she claimed to be skilled in medical skills, but she was a human being, not a god after all, and her cognition was limited after all.
