Seeing Zhao Rong Junzhu leave the secret room, Gu Qingze crossed his arms and smiled coldly.
"What, Lord Duke's honey trap didn't work, so what plan are you going to use to deal with me now?"
Duke Ning shook his head and said, "Divine Doctor Gu has misunderstood this duke. This duke has always admired you and only hoped to be friends with you. How could there be the word 'deal'? Speaking of which, this duke still has a request. "
"Ask me?" A strange light flashed through Gu Qingze's eyes and the cold smile on his lips deepened. "Lord Duke, what request do you have?"
Duke Ning stared at him. Suddenly, he grabbed the front of his robe with both hands and pulled it apart. The jade buttons fell to the ground and his upper body was revealed.
He was over forty years old, but because he had lived like a prince, his skin was still smooth and tight, white and fine. If he didn't take off his clothes, no one would be able to see that his skin was even more delicate than the face of a daughter of a noble family.
However, his white and fine skin was covered in scales that looked like snake skin. It covered his chest and back, and even his two arms were covered in it. It made one's hair stand on end and it was a ghastly sight.
If Zhao Rong Junzhu saw this scene, she would definitely scream.
But Gu Qingze only looked coldly and didn't even move his eyebrows.
"Divine Doctor Gu, please save me. I have this strange illness that only you can cure. Please save me."
There were only the two of them in the secret room. Duke Ning threw away his high and mighty position of a duke and began to beg bitterly.
Gu Qingze was unmoved. His gaze slowly moved over the snake skin on his body and he smiled faintly.
"Lord Duke, you seem to have used the prescription that my disciple gave to treat your daughter, right?"
"Yes, yes, Divine Doctor Gu, you are so powerful that you can even see this. You must have a way to save me, right?"
Duke Ning's body trembled, and countless hopes sprouted in his heart from these words.
It was because he had used the snake slough and goldthread that snakeskin-like skin lesions began to grow all over his body, replacing the original fish scales.
What was most unbearable was not the snakeskin-like lines but the pain and itch that came with it.
When he had fish scale spots on his body, it was unbearably itchy. But after it turned into snakeskin ringworm, it was painful and itchy. He didn't know whether to scratch it or not. The itch and pain drilled into his heart, and this feeling almost tortured him to the point of insanity.
Throughout the banquet, he didn't know how much strength he used to maintain a smile on his face. He didn't want others to notice. But in reality, he couldn't sit still. He wanted to take a knife and cut off his skin piece by piece.
And the most frightening thing was that he found that the snakeskin was rapidly spreading and expanding all over his body. Originally, it was only a small area on his chest, but it soon covered his chest, back, legs, and arms. At this rate, even his face would not be spared.
What if his face was also covered with snakeskin? How could he go out and meet people?
Was he supposed to stay in the Public House for the rest of his life like a coward?
Ning!
In this world, the only person who could save him was Gu Qingze!
