Chapter 350: Play Along
Putuo did not feel that his method was questionable or inappropriate, but explained patiently:
“Once this Gu worm is stained with fresh blood and enters the body, it will remember the smell of the master’s blood. After luring it out, it needs another blood to nourish it. Otherwise, it will follow the memories and return to Madam’s body.
“When it entered the Madam’s body, there were no wounds. Moreover, its speed is not something that an ordinary person could imagine. Perhaps before I can react, it has already entered the body once again. After that… There is no possibility of luring it out of the body.”
“Moreover, the person who has to accept the Gu poison must be a female. A male must not. The harmony between yin and yang is something that has existed since ancient times.”
Yan Kuan, who originally had a plan, was also a little surprised when he heard this. He thought that it was possible. However, if it was only a woman, then it would be easy. There was still a woman in the bas.e.m.e.nt. It was just right to be of use.
However, after listening to Putuo’s words, Shen Xiaoxiao fell into silence. Of course, she had to be saved. However, if she were to use the Black Ganoderma mushroom, then the Shen family’s inheritance fund would be placed on the table. The difficulties and problems that she would have to face on the table would be even more. No matter how she thought about it, she felt very aggrieved. She had actually been schemed against like this. They really deserved to die.
“You guys go out first. We’ll talk about this later.”
Everyone knew that this was related to the Shen family’s inheritance fund. Boss definitely had to consider it carefully with Miss. They were not worried that Miss would not be saved, but they knew that regardless of whether it was Boss or Miss who had suffered such a huge loss… They would definitely not compromise so easily. They would definitely think of a way to turn defeat into victory. Therefore, everyone walked out of the room one after another.
The room returned to its usual calm. Yan Kuan could not help but pull her into his arms. She did not know that when he came back and saw Shen Xiaoxiao lying motionless on the bed, when she could not hear him no matter how much he screamed, how afraid and anxious he was. Her face was pale, her body was thin, and her round belly was swollen. However, he could not wake her up at all. He had never experienced such helplessness in his life. Indeed, this woman was his life.
“Xiaoxiao, to me, nothing is more important than you and the child in your belly.”
Yan Kuan’s sudden words made Shen Xiaoxiao’s heart skip a beat. Did Yan Kuan think that she couldn’t bear to part with the Black Ganoderma? Besides, this Black Ganoderma was under Yan Kuan’s care. Even if Shen Xiaoxiao couldn’t bear to part with it, Yan Kuan would take it out on his own accord. She knew Yan Kuan very well.
“Do you think I can’t bear to part with it? No, I’m thinking, who is the person behind this? Why did you take such a big detour to make them take out the Black Ganoderma? Is it the Ouyang family or the mysterious man in black?”
Yan Kuan smiled and kissed her forehead. This girl was smart, but sometimes she was too confident. No, it was not confidence, but people’s hearts were always unpredictable, and he did not know what this person was thinking sometimes.
“This matter should be the mastermind behind the scenes of the man in black. He used the ambitions of Ouyang Le and Pei Li to make them willingly work for him, but he also wanted to get the Black Ganoderma mushroom.
“Let’s think about it. Who else in the world wants the Black Ganoderma the most besides Ouyang Tian?”
Who else?
Could it be Shen Xiaoxiao? Why did she feel that there were so many people in the world who wanted the Black Ganoderma? Not to mention Ouyang Tian, even Pei Dongguo of the Pei family held the key and refused to let go. If that was the case… Then it would be really hard to guess.
“No matter who is behind this, I’m not willing to suffer such a huge loss. Isn’t there someone who has been secretly observing us?”
“Then let’s play along. I don’t believe that we still can’t catch the person behind this.”
“Alright, rest well. We’ll talk about other things tomorrow. We also have to make good arrangements. What exactly should we do? It’s time to put the puppets prepared by the neighboring villa to good use. Let’s lure the snake out of its hole. Who knows, we might even be able to catch a big fish.”
…
The next morning, Shen Xiaoxiao woke up very early. She did not tell Yan Kuan that she was very thirsty, not because she wanted to drink water, but because she wanted to drink blood.
This change shocked her. She knew that it must be related to the Gu worm in her body, so she gritted her teeth and persevered.
When Yan Kuan woke up, he saw Shen Xiaoxiao biting her lower lip in a fierce manner. He was so scared that he rolled over and got up. He thought that he had to slowly plan this, but it seemed that he had to do it immediately.
Shen Xiaoxiao’s expression was a little confused, and she even started to not recognize him. When Yan Kuan saw Shen Xiaoxiao like this, he was shocked. He immediately called Putuo over, turned around, and went into the dark room to take out the Black Ganoderma.
Since it was already a critical moment, he did not care about the plan anymore. The key was to save Shen Xiaoxiao as soon as possible.
“Madam, what’s going on?”
Putuo checked and immediately nodded. “It seems like we can’t wait for seven days. Is Madam pregnant with twins? At most, three days. If we don’t have the Black Ganoderma, I’m afraid Madam’s poison won’t be cured.”
“The Black Ganoderma is here. Let’s do it.”
Putuo was stunned when he heard that. The Black Ganoderma was here? What did that mean? Wasn’t the only Black Ganoderma in the world that disappeared more than ten years ago? Why was it here?
This Black Emperor was indeed worthy of his reputation. He even had such a precious treasure.
“Is this really the Black Ganoderma? It’s completely black and has a fragrant radius bone. Sigh, Madam is a blessed person.”
“Knock that woman out and bring her up.”
19 knew who Yan Kuan was talking about, so he immediately went downstairs to prepare. Meanwhile, Shen Xiaoxiao was also knocked out by Yan Kuan’s words.
Yan Kuan shot a look at Dark 1. After a while, another woman who was at least 80% similar to Shen Xiaoxiao was also brought in. She was also unconscious and did not move at all, as well as one more woman.
Putuo was a little speechless when he saw this scene. What did this mean? Why were two women suddenly sent over? Which one was this puppet?
Yan Kuan looked at Pu Tuo’s puzzled expression and said to him directly, “I want these two women to have Gu worms on them. I believe that you should have a way.”
Putuo was stunned. Both women wanted to have Gu worms put in them? How did Yan Kuan know his secret?
“Putuo, if you have the ability, don’t hide it. You know my methods. I want these two women to be poisoned.”
“May I ask, who are these two women?”
When Yan Kuan heard Putuo’s words, his eyebrows jumped. Although he looked smiling, his words and eyes were cold:
“It seems that you are tired of living.”
