Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 104
Chapter 104 Bai Xu’s Conditions
“Are you sure you don’t want to go back to see grandma one last time?”
Bai Xu nodded, “I told you, everything about the Bai Clan has nothing to do with me.”
Bai Junzhuo sighed and helplessly said, “Alright then, you can still not go back. Please tell me, where is the scroll of the Bai Clan that is rumored to have recorded the antidote recipe for a hundred poisons?”
“Cousin, it’s rumored that the Bai Clan’s record of knowing about the Hundred Poisons Formula is where it is?”
“An antidote to the Hundred Poisons?” Bai Xu revealed a surprised expression as he frowned and shook his head, “I don’t know.”
“How could you not know? Grandma said that only you know about the Bai Clan!”
Bai Xu smiled and said, “She wanted me to go back and deliberately lied to you to invite me. Why don’t you think about it? The Bai Clan is under Grandma’s control. I’m only the eldest son of the third clan, and I don’t even know about Uncle and Second Uncle. How would I know?”
Bai Junzhuo calmed down. It was as if he was following Madam Zou’s words. As long as she was alive, how could the secret of the Bai Clan be handed over to anyone else?
She turned to look at Yin Xun and said, “Cousin’s words are reasonable, so if I don’t invite Cousin back, Grandma won’t give me the scroll.” After saying that, he said to Bai Xu, “Since my cousin is unwilling to go back with us, then we have no choice but to force it.”
“How did you get tough?”
“Unconscious, tie it back.”
Although Bai Xu was a weak scholar, he was not someone who would compromise after being frightened. “Even if I die, I won’t go back with you. If you guys are tough, then bring my corpse back to the Bai Manor!”
“Cousin …” Bai Junzhuo sighed and looked at him helplessly. “Cousin, stop messing around. Follow me home. I’m telling you, the monks on this mountain are all bandits. You don’t look ugly. Be careful that they sell you to the waiter’s house.”
Bai Xu replied resolutely, “Don’t worry, Old Prime Minister Zhao lives in Nanyang City and needs a thousand copies of the Great Solar Tathagata Scripture every month. These monks need me to copy the scriptures and won’t touch me.”
“Cousin, don’t be stubborn. Follow me back!”
“Being infatuated with the mortal world is the only way to persist in obsessing. If I want to escape into the empty sect, I will have a thorough enlightenment!” Bai Xu argued.
“Great enlightenment?” Yin Xun chuckled and asked, “Are you sure you can let go of the person you love and sincerely beg for Buddha?”
“Of course I can!” Bai Xu immediately replied, “I know that she’s not dead. There’s nothing I need to worry about in this mortal world.”
“If I can help you find Zhu Yankang, and she is not married yet, and has been waiting for you, would you like to go down the mountain and come back with us?” Yin Xun suddenly said.
Bai Xu sneered unabated, “There’s a vast sea of people. Where are you going to find a concealed concubine?”
“Just answer me yes or no.”
Bai Xu lowered his head and pondered for a long time before nodding solemnly, “If Yan Kang is still waiting for me, I naturally cannot let her down.”
Yin Xun chuckled as he pulled Bai Junzhuo up and said, “Let’s go first. We will definitely find Zhu Yankang within half a month.”
Bai Junzhuo’s face was filled with disbelief. She thought that this should only be Yin Xun’s slow-moving strategy, but she did not find fault with it. She allowed Yin Xun to lead her out.
Just as he reached the door, Bai Junzhuo suddenly stopped and supported his heart, “Wait …”
Yin Xun turned around and saw her face suddenly turn pale. He immediately supported her and asked anxiously, “What happened to you? Did the poison in your body break out again?”
“It shouldn’t be poisonous hair. I don’t know what’s wrong …” Bai Junzhuo frowned. Her voice grew softer and softer, and her entire body leaned against Yin Xun’s embrace.
Bai Xu walked over from behind, touched Bai Junzhuo’s forehead, and said, “Quickly help her sit down. She is feverish.”
Yin Xun helped Bai Junzhuo to the table and sat down. Bai Xu pressed down on her pulse. After a while, he asked, “Have you been poisoned?”
Bai Junzhuo nodded.
“Or are there two mutually exogenous poisons? If one of them is cured, the other will be aggravated?”
“Yes.” Bai Junzhuo replied softly.
“You ate the snow lotus fruit again?”
Bai Jun looked at him in confusion, “How do you know everything?”
“Your body suddenly has such a high fever. It was the snow lotus fruit that melted the two toxins in your body. If it was a little later …”
Yin Xun’s heart tightened as he hurriedly asked, “What will happen?”
“If it were any later, the poison would have been cured.” Bai Xu replied.
Hearing what he said, Bai Junzhuo was speechless. She thought that Bai Xu would be hopeless if he said it later.
Yin Xun thought the same thing at first, and when he heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Although Bai Junzhuo was a little weak at this moment, she wasn’t unconscious. She thought about it carefully. Before coming, she had given herself enough medicine to last until she reached Nanyang City. She shouldn’t have poisoned herself on the way, but she had exploded. It should be the effect of the Snow Lotus Fruit.
Thinking of this, Bai Junzhuo immediately asked, “Cousin, can the Snow Lotus Fruit cure all the poison? If a person has been poisoned by cold poison for more than ten years, can you give him the Snow Lotus Fruit?”
“No,” Bai Xu shook his head. “The Snow Lotus Fruit is cold. It can’t neutralize the cold poison, it will only aggravate it.”
Bai Junzhuo was slightly disappointed. He nodded and pressed the tip of his left finger on his pulse.
At first glance, her condition really looked like poison, and she didn’t even react. Bai Xu could tell at a glance, did this prove that Bai Xu’s medical skills were even better than hers?
If that was the case, even if he couldn’t get the scroll, he could ask Yin Xun how to cure the poison.
“Then does cousin know how to cure this poison?”
“There are tens of thousands of cold poisons. I have to personally diagnose that person before I can know how to cure them.”
Bai Junzhuo looked up at Yin Xun. Yin Xun lowered his head to look at her, but he did not say anything.
Bai Junzhuo could only say, “I was just asking.”
Bai Xu didn’t say anything and said to her, “I guess the poison in your body will be cleared up by dawn. Before that, you should sleep here for a while and have a good rest.”
Bai Junzhuo turned to look at the bed where half of the books were piled up. Just as he was hesitating, Yin Xun bent down to pick her up and gently placed her on the bed.
Bai Junzhuo’s face turned red as he looked at him angrily, “What are you doing? My cousin …”
“It doesn’t matter,” Bai Xu said immediately. “Since you and this young master are happy, it makes sense for you to behave intimately.”
Just as Bai Junzhuo opened his mouth, Yin Xun grabbed the blanket and covered her with it. “Who’s with him?” He said indifferently, “Sleep.”
“But …” There was only one bed here. In such a small room, with two men standing here, how could she sleep?
‘”Sleep,” Yin Xun rolled up the quilt for her. “Or do you need me to sleep with you because you’re scared to sleep alone?”
Bai Junzhuo immediately obediently closed his eyes.
Yin Xun stood beside the bed, staring at her sleeping face. After about half an hour, he made sure that she was sound asleep before turning around.
Just as he was about to speak, Bai Xu asked, “Is she asleep?”
Yin Xun nodded, “So you are also waiting for her to fall asleep. What do you want to say to me?”
“I’m just curious about something.” Bai Xu smiled and said, “Why does Young Master know so much about the court and the Madam Zou clan? Who exactly are you?”
“I’m just an idle person who likes to hear stories,” Yin Xun replied. “Besides, it’s no secret that Zou Qi killed prisoners of war in Li Country. The reputation of the cold-faced Shura still sounds like thunder.”
“Young Master has promised to help me find Yan Kang,” Bai Xu said. “If Young Master doesn’t have the authority and power, what ability does he have to find a girl in the vast sea of people?”
Yin Xun smiled, “Because I have money.”
Bai Xu was stunned for a moment, then he laughed loudly and murmured, “Indeed, money can cause ghosts to mill. If we want to find Yan Kang, I believe that young master will have to spend a lot of money.”
“Young Master Bai, don’t worry. These things are nothing to me.”
Bai Xu restrained his smile and asked, “Young Master, please help me find someone. I think it’s for the Bai Clan’s scroll. May I ask why Young Master wants that scroll?”
“Didn’t it say that it recorded a good recipe that could cure a thousand diseases, transform bones, regenerate muscles, and revive the dead?”
Bai Xu narrowed his eyes and looked at Yin Xun, “Every disease or poison has its own unique characteristics. There is no such thing as a cure for all diseases in this world. Could it be that Young Master really doesn’t know what is written on this scroll?”
Yin Xun looked straight at him and asked, “What is it?”
Bai Xu looked at him for a long time before he turned his gaze away and said, “Since Young Master doesn’t know, I won’t say anything further. If possible, why don’t we go back to the Bai Manor and ask Old Lady?”
Yin Xun didn’t want to say anything, so Yin Xun didn’t ask. After a moment of silence, Yin Xun said, “Are you done with your questions?”
Bai Xu nodded, “That’s right, although I didn’t get any answers.”
‘”Then it’s my turn to ask,” Yin Xun said. “I noticed that Young Master Bai’s views on the government are very original from what he said just now. I heard that the Yuan Emperor recruited many virtuous people. Do you have any thoughts of joining the court as an official?”
“Official?” Bai Xu sneered, “Didn’t I just say that I, Bai Xu, will never have anything to do with the temple for the rest of my life?”
“Why?” Yin Xun asked curiously.
“Because I hate the Yin Clan,” Bai Xu replied without hesitation, “it’s all a bunch of murderers who kill people without blinking an eye!”
‘”Emperor Yuan’s politics is clear. She loves her people as well as her son. In the 8th year of the dynasty, our Dali Kingdom was peaceful and the people were well fed and clothed. How did the Yin clan offend you? Could it be because of Princess Guyu? Didn’t you already know that she wasn’t dead and that it wasn’t Emperor Yuan’s intention to deceive the prisoners of war, but Zou Qi’s?”
“Of course, that’s not the only reason. I know more.”
“What do you know?” Yin Xun suddenly approached him and said, “What is the real reason why you have lived so far away in the mountains all these years and never asked anything about the world? It definitely can’t be just because of a woman, right?”
“What do I know and what does it have to do with you?” Bai Xu asked bluntly, “Didn’t you say that you are just an insignificant idle person?”
The two of them looked at each other, and the atmosphere was extremely oppressive. At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded outside.
Bai Xu wrinkled his nose and smelled a strong smell of blood …
