506 Attacking poison with poison

Gu Xin insisted on going with Gu Nian. However, Gu Nian was a girl and it would be bad for her reputation if she went with him alone. Therefore, Gu Xin agreed to go with Gu Nian.

As soon as they arrived at his tent, Gu Nian told him about her analysis.

Yan Mo had also thought of this. He muttered, ” “Just now, Hou Chang had a moment of clarity, but he refused to say how he bought it. The others also got it from Hou Chang. The other teams know about this and some of them have even made a deal with Hou Chang. However, I’ve already ordered people to fill in the gap that you guys sneaked in from last time. Hou Chang can’t go out, so he’s unable to buy anything this time.”

“General Yan,” Gu Nian said,”I think that since Captain hou said that he would only sell it to the soldiers, then it must not only be people from the garrison in Qing Province who are buying it. The other garrisons should also be in the same situation. It might be even more serious. the most important thing is to catch the seller.”

Gu Xin heard their conversation and said, ” general Yan, sister, why don’t you wake Captain hou up and ask him to buy it again? then, you can send someone to follow him. That way, we can catch him, right? ”

Gu Nian facepalmed. She had thought of this idea as well. However, she had said something that would wake him up. They had a way to wake him up, but how could she explain it?

“What if she can’t wake up?” Yan Mo looked at Gu Xin.

Gu Xin’s eyes moved, ” “General Yan, I gave you a pill that day. How do you feel?”

Yan Mo frowned. Why did he mention that day out of nowhere?

“When I was helping Grandma Xiao dry the herbs, I heard her mention that she’s using poison to attack poison,” Gu Xin said. how does general yan feel about the heartache he felt after taking the pill that day, compared to the pain he felt when he saw the soldiers today?”

Gu Nian immediately understood Gu Xin’s meaning. Using the saying ” poison attacking poison “, she fed the Jade bead to Hou Chang. Regardless of whether the poison attacked the other poison, Hou Chang would still be able to wake up.

If they caught the seller and Yan Mo still wanted the Xizi heart-shattering pill, they wouldn’t be able to take it out, and grandma Xiao wasn’t in Qingzhou.

when grandma xiao came back, this group of people would probably be able to slowly quit their addiction on their own!

Gu Nian silently gave her sister a thumbs-up in her heart.

Yan Mo thought of the excruciating pain that day and wished he could kill this little girl with a slap. If it weren’t for the fact that the other kind of powder had an inexplicable effect on his body’s chronic illness, he would have endured the pain and come to her with a knife.

“We can try,” Yan Mo said. Did you bring any pills with you?”

Gu Xin took out a small bamboo tube from the pouch on her belt and opened it. Using her sleeve to avoid Yan Mo’s line of sight, she placed a Jade bead in it and handed it to Yan Mo, ” “There’s only this one left.”

Gu Nian said,”general Yan, for the people other than Hou Chang, ask the camp’s doctor to prescribe some medicine to calm their nerves. When they are awake, let them do more work. Don’t let them idle, but don’t train them like you train soldiers.” Also, try to have a light diet. For these symptoms, one could only see weakness in the spleen and kidney from the pulse. There were no other symptoms. However, if they continued to do this, they would slowly recover. Each person needs at least three people to keep an eye on him. Once he acts up, tie him up immediately and gag his mouth to prevent him from biting his tongue to commit suicide.”

“General Yan, I hope you can explain the blissful powder to the other generals as soon as possible and report it to the Imperial court. Such a scourge, once people were touched, they would become addicted and couldn’t leave. Not only can it defeat the soldiers, it can also defeat the students and civilians, causing the destruction of families.”
