Chapter 83 Intimate Detoxification

Su Muge endured severe pain and climbed out of the dim house. Her antidote pill hidden in the hairpin had been taken away, so she was unable to deal with the poison in her body now!

She was in a mountain forest, where it might be possible to find herbs to alleviate the toxicity. She only hoped that she was lucky enough not to encounter any beasts.

But in a while, her forehead has already been covered with sweat beads and her hands were gradually covered with blood.

“Howl, howl …”

A low howl resounded in her ears; Su Muge became nervous suddenly.

If one was out of luck, even water would plug one’s teeth!

She slowly looked up and saw a pair of eyes glittering with a green light in the forest.

It was a wolf!

The wolf seemed to have sensed the weakness of the prey and quietly walked out of the forest towards Su Muge step by step.

Su Muge closed her eyes. When she reopened them, there was a terrifying coldness in her eyes; she looked directly at the lone wolf without fear.

It didn’t matter if she was weaker in strength, but she couldn’t lose her momentum!

She secretly grabbed a stone on the ground; whatever, she wouldn’t give in!

With the humming sound getting closer and closer, Su Muge clutched the stone tighter and tighter.

The lone wolf bared its teeth and rushed towards Su Muge with a roar.

With red eyes, Su Muge lifted the stone high with all her strength.

“Go to hell!”

“Poof!”

“Well!”

As soon as she threw the stone out, she suddenly caught sight of a familiar face and said a few words in a weak voice.

Xia Houmo wielded the sharp sword in his hand into the eyes of the lone wolf, and then Donglin and others followed up and fight against the angry lone wolf.

Xia Houmo looked at Su Muge who had fainted in his arms with her bloody hands, his dashing eyebrows tightly frowned and his heart seemed to have been inexplicably pricked slightly.

“Clean here up and send people to find Madam Su.”

“Yes.”

Before Su Muge passed out, she asked to save her mother; her voice was very low and weak, but Xia Houmo heard it.

Xia Houmo mounted his horse with Su Muge and disappeared into the forest.

Meanwhile, almost all the participants in the hunting party arrived at the villa.

Because Second Prince was injured, everyone dared not make any movements and stayed in the guest room.

“Huh, it’s weird. Where is sister Zhao? Why hasn’t she been back yet?”

Su Lun was worried about Second Prince’s injury. At this moment, hearing An’s words, he was a little puzzled too. “There are so many nobles at this hunting party. How could she wander around? What if she offends any noble?!”

An revealed some anxiety between her eyebrows. “At the viewing platform, I saw her walk out. Would … would she be lost in the forest?”

“My Lord, Madam, just now, Eighth Princess sent a message that the eldest Miss and Eighth Princess encountered a fierce beast while hunting, and Miss was rushing in front, and, and…” A maid hurriedly ran into the room in horror.

On hearing this, Su Lun raised his eyebrows, got up, grabbed the maid and said in a stern voice, “And what?”

The maid was shivered by the look of Su Lun. “And, and she was taken away by the beast. Now the imperial guards have entered the forest to look for…”

“Gosh! How could it be…” Su Jingwen was “shocked” and covered her mouth with her eyes turning red.

An was so frightened that even her tears streamed down.

“No, it’s impossible. Is, is Eighth Princess mistaken?”

“Madam, it’s the major maid of Eighth Princess who sent the message, so there should be nothing wrong with it.”

“My Lord…” Seeing Su Lun shocked and standing there stiff and still, An was really annoyed but pretended to be sad superficially.

“Send someone to guard outside the hunting field and report to me as soon as there is any news!” Su Lun said with red eyes.

Now that the imperial guards had entered the forest for searching, they wouldn’t be let in anyway.

“How can there be fierce beasts in the women’s hunting field?” Su Len took a sip of cold tea, and his mind became clearer.

An clutched her handkerchief in her sleeve and whispered, “Maybe the field hasn’t been cleaned up before …”

Hearing this, Su Lun showed a flicker of strangeness in his eyes. Driving out the fierce beasts had always been done by the imperial guards, which was led by the King of Jin at present.

At this time, Su Lun had long forgotten the disappearance of Zhao.

In fact, he had secretly moved closer to Second Prince. Although his father-in-law said that the situation was still unclear and asked him not to act rashly, Su Lun insisted that he must seize the opportunity on this matter!

The duty of the imperial guards was to protect the safety of the Emperor and the capital.

However, beasts had actually appeared in the women’s hunting field where they shouldn’t have appeared. Moreover, there had been injuries and disappearances. This was the dereliction of duty of the King of Jin!

In addition, Second Prince was seriously injured for the safety of the Emperor. The Emperor should be somewhat biased towards Second Prince now…

Thinking so, Su Lun had a much better mood. He only wished Second Prince to be fine and recover as soon as possible!

…

At the foot of the back mountain outside the hunting field.

An off-white figure was carried by Zuoqiu to the wooden house at the foot of the mountain.

“Hey, I’ve just arrived in the capital. Your master can’t wait to see me? I always know that he cannot leave me, but he just won’t admit it! Ah…”

Before Guima could finish his words, Zuoqiu brought him into the house. When Zuoqiu let go of him, Guima was stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

Guima glared at him. “Zuoqiu, what are you doing?! Life is so comfortable for you that you want to try my new stuff?!”

Zuoqiu silently glanced at him and quickly retreated.

“Help me save someone.” Xia Houmo stood up from the bed and looked at Guima.

Hearing this, Guima was interested. “I’d like to see who can let you ask me to treat.”

While speaking, Guima walked towards the bed.

When he walked over to the bed and saw Su Muge lying on the bed, Guima was shocked.

“It’s she?!”

“Do you know her?”

Guima deliberately squinted at Xia Houmo. “Don’t be in a hurry. Let me take a look.”

Guima put his hand on Su Muge’s wrist and carefully took her pulse. At first, he had a playful smile on his face, but the smile on the corner of his lips gradually disappeared.

Seeing his changing look, Xia Houmo put on an even gloomier face. He didn’t ask until Guima let go of her hand. “How is she?”

Guima was surprised to find that the poison of Red Fire in Su Muge had actually been detoxified!

In order to figure out the poison of the Red Fire, he had been in Nanman for a long time. He wondered who had helped her detoxify the poison.

“Uh, she is poisoned by a highly toxic poison. If she isn’t detoxified in time, she may be unable to see the sun tomorrow.”

“You can detoxify her.”

Guima grinned and moved close to Xia Houmo while looking at him with a cramped face. “Your Royal Highness, are you begging me now? Even though this girl was somewhat presentable, she was far from that…?”

Xia Houmo completely ignored the jokes of Guima with a sullen face.

“What poison has she got?”

Looking at his poker face, Guima felt bored, went to the chair and sat down while blowing his nails. “Nothing special. It’s just a combination of snake venom and various flower poisons.”

That was to say, the poison that Su Muge swallowed was mixed with all kinds of highly toxic poisons. So it was understandable that it can be deadly in a short time. But it’s not so hard to detoxify.

“Detoxify her.”

“Your Royal Highness, she is so important to you?”

Xia Houmo stood in front of the bed with his hands on his back. Looking at the pale and lifeless Su Muge, he felt inexplicably distressed. He managed to ignore the discomfort and said coldly, “She is still useful.”

Guima pursed his lips and deliberately stretched out his voice. “Oh… she turns out to be a useful person. Okay, I’ll save her.” Of course, he would; he had to ask her who had detoxified the Red Fire in her!

“However, the process of detoxification may be a bit troublesome.”

Xia Houmo looked at Guima whose smile was somewhat evil.

“I have to take off her clothes and push the genuine Qi into her body to expel the poison out of her body. And then, after taking my special detoxification pill, she’ll be fine.”

Xia Houmo fixed his cold eyes on Guima. “Just expel the poison out of her body with genuine Qi?”

Guima was originally intended to tease him, but meeting his chilling eyes, Guima nodded obediently.

After an hour, the doors and windows of the entire wooden house were closed tightly.

Guima stood outside and stretched his neck to peek at the situation in the house, but with Zuoqiu and Zuowei guarding the door, he couldn’t see anything.

The room was dark inside.

Xia Houmo sat opposite to Su Muge on the bed.

Xia Houmo closed his eyes and groped for Su Muge’s belt. With a gentle pull with his fingers, the belt instantly fell off.

With a slight scraping of clothes, Su Muge’s riding suit had been taken off and she was only in a blue bellyband and moon-white underpants.

On touching her delicate shoulder with his slightly callused hands, Xia Houmo clenched his fists as if getting an electric shock.

Xia Houmo took a deep breath and gradually stabilized his heartbeat. Then he condensed his genuine Qi from the pubic region to his palms and pushed it into Su Muge to forcibly expel the poison out of her body.

Su Muge gradually straightened her back, with a thin layer of sweat beads overflowing from her body. In a while, she frowned heavily and couldn’t help humming, seeming to be enduring great pain.

“So, so cold … so cold …”

“So, so hot …”

The alternation of heat and coldness and the forced operation of the meridians and collaterals made her yell out unconsciously.

Xia Houmo opened his eyes, grabbed her hand and cut her fingertip.

Instantly, black blood popped out from Su Muge’s fingertip, with a smell of stench.

Until all the black blood drained away and bright red blood started to flow out of her fingertip, Xia Houmo stopped transmitting genuine Qi and covered her bleeding fingertip with a handkerchief.

Without the support of genuine Qi, Su Muge promptly fell down and collapsed in Xia Houmo’s arms…
