Chapter 69: Tune the tiger away from the mountain

"Is it related to you?" Mu Mu was surprised for a moment, but after thinking about it, he quickly agreed with her statement, "That's right. The most precious person in your family won't let you listen, so maybe it's true.

It's about you, but it's not convenient for you to hear it."

The baby is as spiritless as a deflated rubber ball.

I don’t know why, but my mind recalled the last time she was poisoned in the palace. That time she was really tortured. After that, the uncle never said what happened that time or whether she was poisoned.

If he was poisoned...it seems that he has not taken the antidote, but he has not had another attack.

The baby was eating the snacks just brought by the waiter one bite at a time. The baby felt that the food was tasteless. It seemed that he had forgotten to put sugar in the sweet snacks that he originally liked. It was not delicious at all.

"How long will they continue to talk?" The baby became more and more unhappy.

Mu Mu only prayed to Xuanyuan Jue in secret. How dare you ignore the baby when nothing happened? He was simply looking for death!

The serious look in Xuanyuan Jue's unconscious expression when she closed the door came to mind. Mu Mu was silent for a moment, staring at the baby's face wordlessly.

Could it be that it really has something to do with the baby? Did something happen?

※※※

"Can she really get rid of the poisonous bugs for the baby tomorrow?" In the room, Xuanyuan Jue didn't notice the lack of energy of the little thing in the room at all, and looked at Qinglan with a lively look.

Qing Lan's calm face also had a rare softness, "Well, after the final competition in the martial arts competition tomorrow, I will bring her here."

"Very good!"

"But there is one thing," Qinglan paused, "the poison must be removed when the person who has been poisoned is awake. There is no way to remove it in a comatose state."

Xuanyuan Jue was shocked, "What do you mean..."

"Maybe she will have to suffer a little tomorrow." Qinglan said softly.

Xuanyuan Jue was obviously shaken and gritted his teeth, "She didn't know that she was bewitched."

"Didn't the Gu insect wake up?" Qing Lan was quite unconcerned.

"It happened once." Thinking of the situation at that time, Xuanyuan Jue felt unstoppable heartache and pity welling up in his heart. He really didn't want to see such a painful little thing again.

"How did you explain it to her at that time?"

"...She didn't ask any questions."

Qinglan groaned, pursed her lips and smiled: "Even if she doesn't know that she has been poisoned, I think... she is not really unconscious, right?"

Xuanyuan Jue was surprised.

"If you don't want her to worry too much, you can just tell her that she was poisoned. As long as she can be cured immediately, she shouldn't be too worried."

Perhaps it was because the baby was the person his only nephew cared about the most, which somewhat aroused the family affection in Qinglan's heart. The person who usually cherishes words like gold actually started to talk too much unconsciously.

"Will it be painful when removing the worms..." Xuanyuan Jue lowered his shoulders feebly.

The corners of Qinglan's eyes twitched, "Although it only takes a blink of an eye, when the poisonous insects are removed, the poisonous insects will also become active at the same time, so..."

"Can't you find a way to relieve the pain?"

Qing Lan was silent, seeing Xuanyuan Jue's determined gaze, it took a long time to take out a small snow-white porcelain bottle from her arms, "I made this medicine with the leftover Zi Yun from last time. It can relieve her pain."

Xuanyuan Jue breathed a sigh of relief, carefully took the medicine bottle, and solemnly thanked Qing Lan, "Thank you, uncle."

"Um."

After putting the things away delicately, Xuanyuan Jue felt much more relaxed and began to think about how to tell the little thing about the poisoning so as not to worry her too much.

Qinglan just drank hot tea without saying a word.

"..."

After being silent for almost a quarter of an hour, the two looked at each other. Qinglan moved her lips but did not speak. Xuanyuan Jue hesitated and said, "It's so quiet."

Suddenly, several silver needles appeared in Qinglan's palm, and they both looked at the closed door at the same time.

Xuanyuan Jue secretly sent out a signal, but none of the secret guards responded to him.

"Something's not right! Baby! The little thing is still outside!" Suddenly remembering that Bao Bao and Mu Mu were outside, Xuanyuan Jue panicked. Before Qing Lan could stop him, he had already rushed out of the door.

"little things!"

There were three plates of snacks and two teacups on the wooden table just a few steps away from the door, but the chairs were empty and there was no sign of the two people.

Xuanyuan Jue's body shook violently, and his heart thumped.

Qinglan picked up the leftover snacks on the table and smelled it in front of her nose, then dipped some tea on her fingertips and put it into her mouth.

"Jue."

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the food?" Xuanyuan Jue looked anxious.

"The snacks and tea both have the flavor of 'rosemary'."

"Rosemary?"

"...a kind of drug that can temporarily control people. Some crooked people often use this drug to tie people up so that the target cannot resist."

"!" Xuanyuan Jue was shocked at first, and then only filled with anger.

Qinglan added nonchalantly: "The baby already has poison in her body. Taking this medicine will most likely stimulate the poison in her body in advance."

"What!"

Qing Lan ignored Xuanyuan Jue's panic and just looked around vigilantly, "Where are the secret guards you brought out? They don't seem to be here."

Xuanyuan Jue failed to find those people and became furious.

After another cup of tea, the secret guards came back, but they only brought back news that made Xuanyuan Jue almost go crazy.

They were lured away from the mountain!

"It's not an accident, someone is targeting the two of them!" Qing Lan slowly told the truth.

It is impossible for ordinary people to notice that Xuanyuan Jue has secret guards around him. Those people have undergone strict training and will not be noticed easily. Being able to find a way to use the tactic of diverting the tiger away from the mountain in advance can only mean that those people have a plan in advance.

Xuanyuan Jue listened to the reports of the secret guards, and finally couldn't help but exude a strong murderous aura. A palm wind with strong internal power struck straight forward, not only the tables and chairs in front of him, but also the entire aisle where they were standing on the fourth floor.

The railings were shattered at the same time, and a group of people sitting downstairs raised their heads in surprise.

Never before had his emotions been so exposed, and never had he felt such overwhelming anger, Xuanyuan Jue roared word for word: "I will definitely make them pay the price!"

At the other end, the door of a dark room was opened, and several men in black threw two objects in without mercy. Then in the light outside, it was vaguely visible that the two objects seemed to be two people.

The man in black on the left turned around and pointed at a person and said, "Go and report to the leader, he has been captured."

"yes!"

Looking coldly at the unconscious person in the room, the man in black closed the door with a sinister smile, and the room fell into darkness again.
