Chapter 152: Detoxify The Evil Prince and his Precious Wife The Sly Lady (1/2)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
With the silver needles inserted on the back of Ouyang Shaochen’s hand one after another, it made his hand like a hedgehog, with the sharp point of the needles sparkling slightly under the sun, reflecting kind of cold light, making one shiver down the spine.
But the expression on Ouyang Shaochen’s face didn’t change a bit.
It made Murong Xue feel a little frustrated. So many silver needles on the back of his hand, he didn’t even feel a bit of pains! His endurance was really extraordinary.
Murong Xue picked up the last silver needle and inserted it into the back of his hand bitterly and said grumpily, “Gou Feng, get me a deck chair.” Since all the silver needles were done, it was time to detoxify him. Ouyang Shaochen had to sit up, for her convenience.
“Yes!” said Gou Feng and then moved two chairs to their side, one was a deck chair, and the other a common chair.
Ouyang Shaochen sat on the deck chair, with his injured hand rested on the armrest randomly. Only such an ordinary move already made him extra charming and noble.
Murong Xue curled her lips and then sat by his side. She then entwisted the silver needles and said in a deep voice, “Gou Feng, you go check on the water snakes in the lake now. I have a feeling there’s something wrong with the snakes!”
The water snakes had been living in the Skywater Lake and never hurt people so many years. But today they came out of water to attack people with no reason. Thousands of them all together, like they were controlled by something…
Standing behind Ouyang Shaochen, Gou Feng lowered his voice, “I have caught a few of them and sent them to the doctor. The doctor said they took kind of medicine…”
“What?” Murong Xue popped her eyes out with surprisement!
“Yeah, someone sprinkled some kind of medicine into the Skywater Lake. And the snakes would go crazy after taking it and attack people insanely!” said Gou Feng, with something flashing in his eyes: Actually it’s not a natural disaster but with someone behind it!
Murong Xue nodded, “Do you know what kind of medicine it is?” It was strong enough to control so many snakes. It should be something very poisonous…
“Urgh…the doctor said he doesn’t know…” Gou Feng shook his head. The doctor was a good one, but he could only tell the snakes took some kind of medicine, but didn’t know what it was…
Murong Xue frowned slightly. If so, it’d make it much harder to smoke out the one behind…
“There’s a kind of mysterious medicine in Mo Bei called Madness Pill. Whatever kind of animals it is, once they take it, they would go mad. The patricians like using it on all kinds of beasts like leopards, pythons…and then let them fight for fun.”
said Ouyang Shaochen, with his silver fair-sounding voice, which made Murong Xue a little stunned, “So those snakes took the Madness Pills?”
“Quite possible!” said Ouyang Shaochen with a low voice, with kind of cold light flashing in his eyes.
Murong Xue looked gloomily, “You mean it’s Qing Haoyan who is behind this?”
Ouyang Shaochen didn’t answer her, which kinda meant he approved her guess.
Murong Xue narrowed her eyes: No wonder Qing Haoyan would appear on the lake. So he was here for fun. But why would he do this?
