89: Chapter 89 Little Fish and Murong Xian

After a moment, Meng Li understood the whole story through Xiao Yuer's narration.

Since parting with Hua Wuchuan, Xiao Yuer had been searching for famous doctors, trying to find a way to cure Yan Nantian.

The last time he met Su Ying, Meng Li mentioned that her medical skills were not much worse than Chang Bai Cao's, and she was good at using unorthodox remedies to fight poison with poison.

Xiao Yuer immediately took this to heart.

After Meng Li's family of four returned home, he went to find Su Ying, wanting her to follow him back to Demon Island to treat Yan Nantian. At that time, Su Ying was focused on obtaining the Rainbow Seven-Color Poison Mist to treat her mother, and the finals of the Poison King Heroes Gathering were imminent, so it was naturally impossible for her to go to Demon Island.

Regarding medical treatment, Xiao Yuer had no way and did not dare to force a doctor; he could only leave in disappointment to find another doctor.

Unexpectedly, halfway through, he accidentally ran into Tu Jiaojiao, who had left the island before him.

Xiao Yuer and Tu Jiaojiao had lived together on Demon Island for many years, their relationship like mother and son; meeting again after a long separation, they naturally couldn't help but update each other on their recent situations.

Through their conversation, Xiao Yuer learned the reason why Tu Jiaojiao had originally left the island and the matter she currently needed to handle.

About half a year ago, Tu Jiaojiao suddenly received a message from her family, saying that her brother-in-law had accidentally dug up a miraculous treasure buried by their ancestors, the Liu Ren Divine Dice, and didn't know how to handle it, so they wanted her to come home and discuss it together.

Tu Jiaojiao went through immense hardships to leave the island and return home, only to find her entire family had been exterminated.

At the same time, the Liu Ren Divine Dice was gone, and darts engraved with an eagle-head symbol were left at the scene.

Tu Jiaojiao immediately launched an investigation based on these two points, eventually finding that the eagle-head darts were suspected to have come from the Murong Family.

Just as she was planning to sneak into the Murong Family to verify this, she met Xiao Yuer.

Subsequently, the two of them disguised their identities and entered the Murong Family together.

Perhaps it was destiny; after entering the Murong Family, Xiao Yuer still developed feelings for Mu Rong Xian. During that time, he also helped Tu Jiaojiao verify that the darts were fake, as the eagle head on them faced the opposite direction of those from the Murong Family.

Tu Jiaojiao had no choice but to change the direction of her investigation.

Not long after, Xiao Yuer and Mu Rong Xian's affair was discovered by Murong Wudi.

The Murong Family was not only famous in the Jianghu but also prominent in the imperial court. The founder, Murong Fo, was a founding official, and the current eldest daughter, Murong Shu, was also a noble consort of the current dynasty.

In comparison, Xiao Yuer had no power, no influence, and no family business; even his Martial Arts were not worth mentioning. He was the complete image of a hoodlum.

Murong Wudi naturally wouldn't allow his most beloved youngest daughter to marry such a penniless "punk" who didn't even have a spark to his name.

But Mu Rong Xian was determined and refused to let go of Xiao Yuer.

Murong Wudi was so angry his teeth itched, wishing he could kill Xiao Yuer with a single strike of his Raging Dragon Palm!

In the end, Xiao Yuer and Mu Rong Xian still eloped secretly, just like in the original drama.

However, due to the change in the plot, when the two eloped, Murong Shu was still in the imperial palace and hadn't returned home to visit. Without this eldest sister and noble consort to mediate, the Murong Family naturally couldn't allow Mu Rong Xian to be "abducted."

Upon discovering Mu Rong Xian was missing, Murong Wudi immediately used his connections to search everywhere.

Under these circumstances, Xiao Yuer naturally didn't dare to proclaim the joy of their elopement; instead, he seriously considered their future.

Then, with this consideration, he thought of the cold poison.

The cold poison inside Mu Rong Xian's body could flare up at any time, and it was certain to flare up on the night of a full moon.

When the two eloped, Mu Rong Xian only brought some extreme Yang Medicinal Pills; the volcanic rock was kept in the Murong Family's secret room, so she couldn't get it. Even if they had it, they couldn't run around all day carrying a large rock.

Therefore, this cold poison had to be resolved.

Xiao Yuer didn't understand detoxification himself and could only seek help; in doing so, he thought of Meng Li and Su Ying.

Thus, the two of them took E Tongtian and Tu Jiaojiao, inquiring along the way, and finally came to the door today.

After hearing everything, Meng Li ate breakfast expressionlessly, but couldn't help but complain in his heart.

This Xiao Yuer is truly Jiang Feng's offspring; his talent for abducting people is inherited from the same lineage!

And both father and son didn't abduct ordinary people; they liked to play with fire.

Jiang Feng abducted someone from Yihua Palace; although he only abducted a palace maid, Yihua Palace was notoriously fierce in the Jianghu and had rules—this kind of behavior was fatal!

Jiang Feng didn't care and abducted her anyway!

And then he was killed!

Xiao Yuer surpassed his predecessor, abducting someone from the Murong Family, which had influence in both the Jianghu and the imperial court, and he abducted their most pampered pearl.

This behavior...

If it weren't for the Protagonist Halo, he would have been beaten to death long ago!

It was a good thing Hua Wuchuan was raised by Yao Yue and Lian Xing; otherwise, he might have also become a punk who abducts girls.

After Xiao Yuer finished speaking, he took a sip of water to moisten his throat, and then asked Meng Li, "Brother Meng, you are well-informed. Do you have a way to solve the Little Fairy's cold poison?"

Meng Li thought for a moment and shook his head. "According to what you said, the cold poison in Miss Murong's body is because she possesses a Pure Yin Body, and it was generated by her Qi Deviation during practice. This is the first time I've heard of such a situation; I haven't seen it in ancient records or biographies, so I don't know the solution."

"We can only rely on Miss Su."

"If she has no way either, you can go back to Demon Island and find the Ghost Doctor Chang Bai Cao to take a look."

"Alright then."

After Meng Li finished his breakfast, he tidied up a bit and returned to his room.

Xiao Yuer followed closely behind.

Unexpectedly, when the two reached the door, they found Jiang Yuyan, Xiao Baiyan, Jiang Yu Feng, Tu Jiaojiao, and E Tongtian were all at the door.

"Why did you all come out?" Xiao Yuer asked.

E Tongtian replied, "Doctor Su said she wanted to give Master's Wife a comprehensive examination. It wasn't convenient for us to stay inside, so we came out."

Only then did Xiao Yuer and Meng Li realize.

After a short while, Su Ying's voice came from inside the room.

"The examination is over, you can come in."

Xiao Yuer was the first to rush in.

Meng Li's eye corner twitched.

This seems to be his room!

Fortunately, he had hidden the Liu Ren Divine Dice beforehand; otherwise, he would inevitably have to worry about exposure.

Complaining in his heart, he stepped into the room.

Just as he entered, he heard Xiao Yuer asking urgently, "Doctor Su, how is it? Can the Little Fairy's cold poison be completely cured?"

Su Ying thought for a moment and replied, "The toxins in her body were caused by Qi Deviation during practice. Logically, like an ordinary person, she would first be disfigured, and if not expelled from the body in time, her muscles and bones would wither, and she would die from the exhaustion of her life force. But she has a Pure Yin Body, and the technique she practices is also of the Pure Yin attribute, so it unexpectedly gave birth to a cold poison that is like a maggot on a bone."

"This is also the first time I've seen such a case, and I haven't treated it."

"If it must be completely cured, I can only provide a theoretical method based on the situation combined with what I've learned."

"This method comes at a great cost, and may even be life-threatening; I can't guarantee the success rate either."

"By comparison, I suggest you continue using the original method: suppress it with extreme Yang Medicinal Pills and volcanic rock when the cold poison flares up."

Upon hearing that the cost was great and it might even be life-threatening, Xiao Yuer hesitated instantly.

He wanted to completely cure Mu Rong Xian's cold poison so she would have no worries and could live happily with him, but he didn't want her to take risks.

Instead, it was Mu Rong Xian who spoke up, "Doctor Su, can you tell me the method you mentioned?"
