Before Xia Wei finished speaking, his father had already disappeared in the corridor. Looking at the empty yard, Xia Wei felt depressed. The image of his father in his heart had collapsed in an instant.
Why?
Isn't it just a herb that is more important than grandpa's life?!
Moreover, Divine Doctor Wang is so sincere and offers such attractive conditions, but he is still not as good as this herb?!
What on earth is this and why does my father value it so much?!
Xia Wei was puzzled. While he was thinking, the middle-aged housekeeper came towards him carrying a bag of medicinal materials.
"Master Xia, why are you here?!"
"Everything is ready."
The middle-aged butler was about to listen to the compliments. He was very hard on his subordinates, so he was able to gather all the medicinal materials in such a short period of time. Although most of them were relatively common, the quantity was so large that it took a lot of effort.
.
"Okay...send the things in."
"Forget it, I'll go with you."
In the room, Wang Chao frowned slightly. It seemed that getting the Sky Star Grass this time was not that simple.
Strange, the Xia family father and son should not be bad people, why do I have such a big emotional reaction when I mention Tianxingcao? Is there any hidden secret in it??!
Xia Wei didn't find any clues, but that didn't mean Wang Chao wasn't vigilant.
The moment he mentioned Tianxingcao, he clearly felt that Xia Wei's father's expression changed drastically, and even the corners of his eyes twitched.
At this moment, Mr. Xia suddenly coughed up blood.
Cough! Cough! Cough!
The blood in the mouth was not red, but black, staining the entire bed sheet bright black, and it was accompanied by a fishy smell, which was completely different from ordinary blood.
The room was suddenly filled with a strange and extremely pungent smell.
Um......
What does it smell like? It stinks!
The middle-aged housekeeper covered his nose with his sleeves and barged in bravely. Xia Wei followed closely and also smelled the pungent smell. Soon the smell spread quickly, and even outside the yard, a faint smell could be smelled.
Stink.
"Divine Doctor Wang...what's going on?!"
"Grandpa, is he... okay?!"
As soon as Xia Wei came in, he saw his grandfather coughing up blood. He couldn't help but become nervous and began to wonder.
how so?
Could it be that his father's actions just now made Divine Doctor Wang dissatisfied, so...
Xia Wei was just halfway through his thoughts when Wang Chao's voice echoed in his ears.
"Don't get me wrong...it wasn't me."
"Someone is controlling the poisonous insects in the old man's body and eating away at his body crazily."
"But don't worry...I have sealed the acupuncture points with silver needles, so they won't be life-threatening for the time being."
Wang Chao set his sights on Xia Wei. Being able to control the poisonous insects in his body meant that the person who poisoned him was within the Xia family, otherwise it would be impossible to control him from a distance.
"Control!?"
"Doctor Wang, are you saying that the person who poisoned you is in the Xia family!?"
Xia Wei was shocked and quickly turned his attention to his second uncle outside the room. If anyone had a motive for murder, it would be his second uncle and his third uncle!
"That's right...it should be nearby."
"Don't worry, he will reveal his true colors later!"
Although poisonous insects are powerful, once they are killed, they will definitely cause backlash against the person who poisoned them, and the flaws will definitely be exposed by then, so there is no need to investigate now, as the flaws will be exposed by then.
Xia Wei breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart felt relieved now.
