In a daze, Murong Ke seemed to smell a familiar smell. He did not know how many days and nights he had not closed his eyes. Every time he was exhausted, those venomous insects would bite him and cause him great pain. He could not close his eyes and rest at all.
"Yao Yao …" He tried hard to open his eyes, as if he saw the person he thought about day and night in front of him.
"Murong Ke, why did you send people to kill me?" He saw Yao Yao staring at him with hatred and disgust.
"No, I didn't want to kill you. Yao Yao, listen to my explanation." Murong Ke shouted.
"Yao Yao Yao …"
Murong Ke felt that he was trying hard to catch up. He wanted to reach out and grab Yao Yao's hand, but she had already walked further away. His legs seemed to have no strength at all, and he could not run to catch up with her.
"It seems that you are beginning to lose consciousness." Wu Ming looked at Murong Ke who was muttering to himself in front of him, and a faint smile appeared on his face. "Soon, you will become a living dead. At that time, you will do whatever the Witch King wants you to do. Even if he wants you to kill Lu Yaoyao, you will not hesitate to do it."
Murong Ke heard Wu Ming's words in his chaotic consciousness. He tried hard to raise his head and looked at him with slack eyes. "Qi Ruoshui, don't even think about using me."
"It seems that your willpower is indeed strong. You can still be awake after being bitten by the Gu insects for so long." Wu Ming couldn't help but admire Murong Ke a little. The venomous insects here were all refined. An ordinary person would definitely die if they were bitten by one of them, but Murong Ke was still able to hold on until now. Even if these venomous insects could fight poison with poison and not take his life, his body was no longer his.
Murong Ke showed a sarcastic smile. "So what?"
"There is not much time left for you to stay awake." Wu Ming said faintly, "I don't know how many Gu insects there are in your body now. In this world, except for the Witch King, no one can help you drive the Gu insects out of your body. You will definitely die."
"I wonder how long you can live after being bitten by the Gu insects?" Murong Ke asked with a faint smile.
Wu Ming was stunned when he heard that. He looked down and saw that the Gu insects that were afraid of him were already crawling towards him. A dark blue Gu insect was biting his calf. He was so shocked that he swept the insect away with his palm and hurriedly retreated to the back of the door. He closed the door forcefully and locked all the Gu insects behind the door.
There was something wrong with the medicine Huang Fuchen gave him.
Wu Ming tore open the pants on his calf and saw that the insect bite had begun to turn black. He pressed an acupoint and immediately ran to Huangfu Chen's residence.
Huangfu Chen was drying medicine outside the courtyard. When he saw Wu Ming running over with a pale face, he already knew what was going on.
"Master John Doe, what's wrong with you?" Huang Fuchen asked him with a smile.
"You already know the answer." Wu Ming glared at Huangfu Chen. "There's something wrong with the medicine you gave me. Those Gu worms aren't afraid of it at all."
Huang Fuchen was surprised. "I don't have enough herbs recently, and the pill I gave you can only last for 15 minutes. Did I forget to tell you?"
Wu Ming almost vomited blood. Huangfu Chen had been in the Gu Insect Cave for at least an hour last time, and he actually gave him a medicine that could only last for 15 minutes. "If I die, all the guards in the Priest Hall will kill all of you."
"Why would I want you to die?" Huangfu Chen sighed. "Master John Doe misunderstood me. Come in quickly. Let me see if I can detoxify it."
Huangfu Chen brought Wu Ming into the house. When he saw his wound, he took a deep breath. Wu Ming had just been bitten, and he was already in such a state. How terrible was the injury on Murong Ke's body now?
"Those Gu worms were raised by Qi Ruoshui. You are his guardian. Don't you have the antidote?" Huangfu Chen took out some herbs from the jar and applied them on Wu Ming's calf. He then gave him a pill. "I don't know much about Gu worms. I can only suppress the poison in your body. You still have to find Qi Ruoshui."
Wu Ming felt that the pain in his body was not as uncomfortable as before. He looked at Huangfu Chen with a gloomy gaze. Except for the Shaman King, no one knew how to control Gu worms. Even though he was the guardian of the Shaman King, he knew nothing about Gu worms. The Shaman King would not allow them to approach the Gu Insect Cave, let alone give them the antidote.
"There are three more pills here. Take one a day, and it will last you until you find Qi Ruoshui," Huangfu Chen said with a smile.
"Mr. Huangfu, this is your plan, right?" Wu Ming asked coldly.
"Master John, I don't understand what you are talking about." Huangfu Chen smiled faintly.
"You want me to let you leave this place?" Wu Ming leaned against the back of the chair. He did not dare to move his calf at all. Once he moved, he would gasp in pain.
Huangfu Chen smiled. "You have already promised me that you will let me go to the palace tomorrow."
Hong Ying had already come to him. Tomorrow, they would sneak into the Priest Hall to rescue Murong Ke. He had to send Wu Ming away.
"Unless you can cure me of the Gu Poison, I will not let you leave the Priest Hall," Wu Ming said coldly.
Huangfu Chen raised his eyebrows. "Is that so? Are you planning to find Qi Ruoshui yourself?"
"You!" Wu Ming glared at Huangfu Chen angrily.
"Sigh." Huangfu Chen sighed softly. "I really did not mean to harm you. Bring me to the pharmacy. I will try to see if I can make an antidote."
Nameless took a deep look at Huang Fuchen, weighing the credibility of Huang Fuchen's words in his heart. If he wanted to look for the Shaman King, he was afraid that there was no time left. If he wanted to live, he could only hope that Huang Fuchen could concoct the antidote.
"You have long planned to threaten me with the antidote?" Wu Ming asked. He finally understood that Huangfu Chen had been plotting against him from the beginning.
Huangfu Chen smiled faintly. "It doesn't matter how you suspect me."
Wu Ming did not want to die like this. At least, he had to survive until the Shaman King returned, or he had time to find the Shaman King. "Okay, come with me. I will bring you to the pharmacy."
"Okay." Huangfu Chen nodded with a smile.
The Priest Hall's pharmacy was very big. Almost all kinds of medicine could be found here, including the terrifying poisons. Huangfu Chen was shocked and angry at the same time. Many of the medicinal materials in this pharmacy could only be found in Ox Village. How did Qi Ruoshui bring these medicines from Ox Village?
Or did she already know how to make these poisons?
"Mr. Huangfu, what medicine do you need?" Wu Ming asked coldly.
"Medicine to fight poison with poison," Huangfu Chen said faintly. He had already started to take the medicinal materials he needed.
Wu Ming said, "You better not play tricks. Don't forget that this is the Priest Hall."
"If I were you, I would find some water to soak in the wound and find a way to squeeze out the poisonous blood," Huangfu Chen said.
"Watch him!" Wu Ming said to the guard beside him. He turned around and strode out of the pharmacy.
