766: Chapter 760: Ghost Doctor’s Miraculous Hands 766: Chapter 760: Ghost Doctor’s Miraculous Hands Gu Youyou feared an accident during the poison collection process and might get bitten by a snake, so she prepared several vials of antivenom for ice poison.
The serum couldn’t be stored for a long ti, so after a while, she would discard so and continue making more.
Searcy didn’t understand this though and said, “You keep making these things, then keep throwing them away, and keep making more.
Aren’t you tired?
Even the snakes must feel tired.”
Gu Youyou couldn’t be bothered with her and commanded, “Hurry up, tell what ingredients are in here.”
This was a sample of poison that Gu Youyou had collected, not the kind of cold poison they commonly used.
It was a different type, one that didn’t use Youying Grass, yet produced an effect akin to the cold poison that did.
After Searcy had a look, her eyes shone, and she couldn’t suppress her excitent as she asked, “Where did this co from?”
Gu Youyou squinted her eyes and looked at her with folded arms, asking, “Seeing how excited you are, could it be that this poison has sothing to do with your family?”
“Yes, it indeed cos from the hands of our Ghost Doctor.” She said.
Gu Youyou’s heart skipped a beat, and she snatched the poison sample away.
“Hey, where exactly did you get this?” She was the only surviving descendant of the Ghost Doctor’s family; it was impossible for such a dicine to have been leaked.
Gu Youyou’s expression turned cold, and she looked at Searcy with a complex gaze.
She had a bold suspicion that perhaps the extermination of the Ghost Doctor’s family wasn’t because they did too many bad things, but instead …
After pondering for a mont, holding the dicine pouch, Gu Youyou spoke in a faint voice, “I don’t know.
I’ll have to ask the person who delivered the dicine.”
Searcy’s face showed a rare emotion as she stared at the dicine in Gu Youyou’s hand, wanting to reach for it.
After a mont of thought, however, she still couldn’t bring herself to ask for it.
…
Gu Youyou was in Qi Mountain, but her sources of information were far from sealed off.
Accounts from the Jisheng Hall branches from all over were sent to her at the end of the year, along with news about Lin Qianqing.
The information was sparse, ntioning only that she was attacked on her wedding day.
Jin Xiaoran was convinced that it was the doing of Prince Jin Tingyu, and in retaliation, Jin Xiaoran had soone exact revenge on the day of Jin Tingyu’s wedding.
However, he didn’t have the sa tact as his opponent.
He caused trouble indeed but ended up capturing a live witness, who couldn’t withstand heavy torture and spilled everything in the Ministry of Punishnt’s Prison.
The Emperor flew into a rage, gave him a beating, and had everyone from the Crown Prince Residence confined, not to be released before New Year’s.
Therefore, due to Jin Xiaoran’s troubles, Lin Qianqing couldn’t even think of returning to her parent’s ho for the New Year.
Holding the letter in her hand, Gu Youyou asked Xiang Chun who was by her side, “Has the Lin Residence sent any letters?”
Xiang Chun replied, “There haven’t been any letters, but the old madam sent a ssage.
She said if the young lady finds an opportunity to return ho during the New Year, she should try to make the trip.
She hasn’t spent a New Year together with the young lady yet!”
Gu Youyou paused and then put away the letter after a mont, sighing deeply, “I’m not going back now for a reason.
Later, tell Qingyang I need to borrow their kitchen to make so pastries.”
Xiang Chun’s eyes lit up and said, “Are you making pastries to send back to the old madam?”
“Right, you’re going to help .”
Xiang Chun smiled, rembering the pastries made by the young lady; she couldn’t help but swallow her saliva, excitedly saying, “Okay, okay, I’ll start preparing right now.”
After Xiang Chun left, Gu Youyou picked up another account book, which also contained a letter.
It was from the Jisheng Hall branch in Qingshui Town.
Because it was a small place, it had the lowest inco.
However, this Jisheng Hall was particularly aningful to Gu Youyou; it was the headquarters of the Jisheng Hall chain.
The legend of Jisheng Hall started there; nobody dared to take it lightly.
