758 It Didn’t Work?

Half an hour later, Jiu Yuan floated out.

Qin Xi rolled her eyes and entered the cave. She lowered her voice and said, “It’s not that I’m afraid. I’m just trying to be safe.”

“Why didn’t your husband come with you?”

Jiu Yuan smacked his lips and said, “He’s so protective of you. If he knew you were coming here, he would definitely follow you!”

Qin Xi said, “He was going to come, but I rejected him. He’s been very busy recently, so he didn’t have time to waste. It’s not dangerous here anyway, so I didn’t let him come.”

“Indeed, your husband is a busy man now. The winery is about to open for business, and fruit wine and medicinal wine are about to be released. He naturally doesn’t have time to fool around with you!”

Jiu Yuan thought of Han Shi’s recent schedule of going out early and coming back late and felt that what Qin Xi said made sense.

Qin Xi was displeased. “What do you mean I’m fooling around? Forget it, you won’t understand even if I tell you.”

Jiu Yuan was speechless. “How would I know if you don’t tell me?”

The two of them chatted as they quickly walked in. The deeper they went, the higher the temperature. Fortunately, Qin Xi was not wearing too many clothes. Otherwise, she would feel uncomfortable.

Just as she was about to enter the deepest part, Qin Xi stopped in her tracks. She frowned and pursed her lips.

Jiu Yuan was stunned. “What’s going on?”

The deeper she went, the stronger the pungent smell of poison. In the past, although she also smelt it, it was especially strong today. Her stomach even churned and she had the urge to vomit. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

She covered her mouth and nose, her face a little pale. “Why is the smell here getting stronger and stronger? No, if I go any further, I’ll definitely vomit.”

“Then what should we do? Are we going back?” Jiu Yuan asked worriedly when he saw her pale face.

Qin Xi thought for a moment and her eyes suddenly lit up. “I almost forgot about something. I can enter your body now. That way, I won’t be able to smell this pungent smell.”

Jiu Yuan also felt that this method was feasible. “This is indeed a good idea, but is it really fine to leave your body?”

Qin Xi said, “Don’t worry, I’ll put an Invisibility Talisman on it!”

Jiu Yuan said, “What if snakes, insects, rats, and ants bite you…”

Qin Xi looked at him as if he was a fool. “The king of poisons is the one inside. What other poisonous insects do you think will dare to come here?”

Jiu Yuan said, “…That’s true!”

Her expression changed drastically as she muttered to herself, “What’s going on? Why isn’t it working anymore? That shouldn’t be the case!”

Qin Xi thought that perhaps because she was slightly affected by the pungent smell. She shook her head and focused again.

Unfortunately, it still didn’t work.

“What’s going on? What’s wrong?” Qin Xi did not understand what was going on. She took a deep breath and tried a few more times, but it was still useless.

She looked at Jiu Yuan dejectedly. “What should we do? If we can’t enter your body, it’ll be useless even if we go in. We won’t be able to get the spirit herbs at all.”

Jiu Yuan shrugged. “Do I look like someone who can answer your question?”

Qin Xi waved her hand. “We can only go back and figure out why it isn’t working.”

Jiu Yuan said, “That’s the only way!”
