Chapter 1047: He Was Poisoned by Voodoo
vAfter Qin Shu finished speaking, she tried to pass the straw to Long Size’s lips. He opened his mouth and held the straw in his mouth again, drinking the medicine.
Long Size finished the whole bowl of medicine in one gulp. Although he didn’t drink it quickly, he finished it.
The medicine that he didn’t have time to swallow flowed out from the corner of his mouth. She took the silk handkerchief in time and wiped it clean for him.
Seeing that the medicine was finished, she heaved a sigh of relief. She took out a milk candy from her pocket, open the package, and brought it to Long Size’s mouth. She coaxed, “Grandpa, this is a milk candy. It’s very sweet.”
The bitter taste of the Chinese medicine remained in Long Size’s mouth. It was very uncomfortable. Hearing that it was very sweet, he naturally opened his mouth and ate the candy from his lips. It was as sweet as he heard it. At the same time, it eased the bitterness in his mouth, and his tightly furrowed brows gradually relaxed.
Qin Shu sat by the bed and was not in a hurry to leave. She was watching Long Size put the candy in his mouth. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw a photo album on the side of the pillow. It was placed in the corner of the bedside. The light was too dim, so she could not see it if she did not pay attention.
She reached out to pick up the photo album. On the cover was a photo of baby fat. After she opened it, the first page was a photo of baby fat too. They were all photos of life. The photos were not edited and were very realistic. The baby looked very cute and sweet, the baby was white and tender. Everyone will want to pinch her to feel the touch.
The baby’s fat eyes were azure blue, echoing with her snow-white skin. It gave people a feeling of looking at the blue sky and white clouds.
If she guessed correctly, this baby should be Long Ziling, her mother.
She flipped through a few more pages and finally saw Long Ziling after she grew up. She was wearing gorgeous new clothes from Miao. Her eyes were cold and noble, and there was a big change from the photos when she was young.
When she was young, she smiled with baby fat on her cheeks. It was a little plump, but she was very cute.
After she grew up, the photos were all the same. There was no smile on her face, but her young face was giving people a very serious feeling.
Her mother did not like taking photos, so this was the expression she gave when she took a photo.
When she flipped to the last page, there were only a few pages. There were most photos when she was young, but there were only a few photos when she grew up.
On the last page, she looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old. She was tall and graceful, and there was a pink blush on her face. She seemed shy, but also nervous.
It reminded her of the portrait. The mother in the portrait looked young, between the ages of sixteen and nineteen. She had the same expression, like a peach blossom in March, with a hint of a young girl’s shyness.
No wonder she couldn’t find Long Ziling’s photo in all the drawers when she looked for it last time. It turned out that he had placed it here.
It made sense. Long Size missed his daughter, so he placed the photo album near the bed where it was within reach.
After thinking about it, he could look at it at any time to ease the pain of missing his daughter.
The master and the mother probably met during that period of time.
After waiting for a while, Qin Shu felt that he was almost done with his candy, so she put the photo album back in its original position.
Then, she brought him a glass of warm white wine and gave him a drink to rinse his mouth to prevent the residual sugar in his mouth from being too much.
After doing all this, Qin Shu stared at Long Size for a while and heard that his breathing was even better than before. She helped him put the quilt on his body before leaving with the man.
After leaving the Fuqing courtyard, Qin Shu suddenly stopped and said to the man, “I have to go see hHaoze.”
The man stopped too and asked her, “Do you have anything to do with him?”
“Yes.”
“Then let’s go together.”
Two figures, one tall and straight, the other tall and thin, shuttled through the night like a ghost without anyone noticing.
When she came to the confinement room, she found that there seemed to be a lot fewer guards this time, leaving only two guards to look back and forth.
A trace of doubt flashed in her eyes. She looked at the man and raised three fingers at him. The man nodded and the two of them quickly ran to the third confinement room with tacit understanding.
They were so fast that no one noticed them.
Qin Shu was good at picking locks. She opened the lock with three strokes of the broken moon and two figures quickly entered.
It was pitch-black inside. Only the cold moonlight shone down from the window. She could see a person lying on the wooden bed. He didn’t move at all, as if he was sleeping soundly.
She frowned and felt that something was wrong. The last time she came, Haoze woke up before she even walked in. He sat up from the bed, which meant that he was very vigilant.
Now, he didn’t move at all. Was he sleeping too soundly, or…
But soon, Qin Shu smelled the smell of blood. It wasn’t strong, so she didn’t smell it when she first came in. She only smelled it when she walked in.
“Something happened.” She exclaimed in a low voice and walked quickly to the bed.
The man frowned and followed her quickly.
When she reached the bed, she reached out two fingers to the tip of Haoze’s nose and found that he was still breathing. She immediately withdrew her hand and called out, “Haoze.”
The man said, “He fainted.”
“The Yang family must have been impatient to make a move.” Qin Shu frowned and reached out to press him down, trying to wake him up.
After trying for a while, Haoze, who was lying on the bed, moved his eyebrows. Then, he slowly opened his eyes and saw two figures standing in front of the bed in the darkroom. He looked at one of the relatively short figures, “Qin Shu, why are you here?”
“Why did you suddenly faint?” Qin Shu reached out to help him up. At this moment, the man standing next to her reached out his arms and lifted Haoze from the wooden bed.
Haoze:”…” who is this guy? Can’t he be gentler?
After the man lifted Haoze, his hands hung by his side. He then held the woman’s hand to prevent her from suddenly reaching out to touch another man.
Qin Shu’s mind was focused on Haoze, so she didn’t pay attention to the man’s small movements.
“What happened to you?”
“I was poisoned by a voodoo, so I’m fine for now.” Hao Ze held his chest. He could still feel that there was a worm constantly squirming toward his heart. If it reached his heart, it would be hopeless.
Qin Shu guessed subconsciously: “Yang Jin?”
Haoze nodded: “Yes, they can not wait any longer, if nothing goes wrong, they will attack again in a few days.”
“You are a high-level Gu master, you can detoxify Gu worms, Moreover, how did they poison you?” This was what Qin Shu could not understand.
Haoze laughed lightly: “Do you smell blood?”
“Yes.” Qin Shu nodded.
“Someone died here just now, I used the Gu worms that I carry with me, the rest are harmless Gu worms. Detoxifying gu worms requires a process, and the process requires medicine too.” Hao Ze’s voice was indifferent, he did not seem to be in a hurry.
Qin Shu heard him and said: “Then I will save you.”
Haoze shook his head: “I can not go out, for the time being, It will alert the enemy. If they act in advance and we are not prepared, Long Size might lose his life.”
