Chapter 5 Xiao Junlin's Poison
Chapter 5 Xiao Junlin's Poison
Gu Hua walked over and placed the food he brought on the stone table, then went to the kitchen to get a set of bowls and chopsticks, sat down and started eating.
For those who have spent a few years in the end times, the world is big, but eating is the most important thing.
The man obviously seldom eats at the same table with others. He was slightly stunned after Gu Hua sat down, and then continued eating as if nothing had happened.
"Don't just eat the rice without eating the vegetables!" Gu Hua thought that he couldn't see, so he tore off a roast goose leg and put it in his bowl. Fearing that he would dislike it, he explained, "I washed my hands when I took the bowl just now."
Xiao Junlin pursed his thin lips with sharp edges~
Gu Hua stared at the man opposite her, with an eager look as if she would take the big goose leg back and eat it herself if the man showed a hint of disgust.
The man moved, picked up the goose leg with his slender hands, and finished eating it bite by bite.
Gu Hua's hopeful face fell, and he suddenly felt a little regretful.
"…"People who lived humbly in the last days have long died out.
Gu Hua looked at the man's greasy and shiny lips and wanted to snatch the goose leg back.
Xiao Junlin: "It smells good."
Gu Hua quickly understood what the dog man meant and immediately replied, "This goose is disabled and has only one leg."
The man suppressed the corners of his mouth that were slightly raised, lowered his head and continued to eat the rice in the bowl. Suddenly, he paused with his chopsticks and found that another roasted goose leg was put into the bowl.
"Isn't the goose disabled?"
Gu Hua knew that this was a mockery from the bastard, so he said unhappily, "It's not like he's disabled, but he hasn't had his limbs amputated yet. I'll give you both goose legs to eat, okay?"
The man could no longer suppress his smile. He clenched his palms and placed them under his lips, then coughed softly, "Oh."
What does "oh" mean.
Gu Hua rolled her eyes at him, tore off a goose wing and put it in her mouth, chewing it happily. The delicious taste in her mouth made her peach blossom eyes narrow into two crescents. She drooped her eyelids, and her eyelashes were dense and long, very attractive.
It’s a pity that Xiao Junlin couldn’t see because he was poisoned at this time.
"It's worthy of being the restaurant's signature dish. It's so delicious." Gu Hua rubbed his full stomach and grunted.
Xiao Junlin, who ate half a bowl of rice more than usual, also touched his stomach. His brows drooped, hiding some of the tenderness in his eyes. He knew that he was overeating because of the person in front of him.
After dinner, in order to win the boss's favor, Gu Hua chatted with him for a while before leaving.
After Gu Hua left, the courtyard fell silent again.
Xiao Junlin frowned. The tranquility that he used to enjoy made him feel a little irritated. He wanted to catch Gu Hua who had just left...
As a stream of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, Xiao Junlin's skin all over his body slowly turned red as if it was burning. He struggled to stand up and staggered into the house.
When the poison takes effect, all the internal organs feel like they are burning.
Xiao Junlin, who was a man of resolute and patient character, curled up on the bed with veins bulging on his forehead. He knew that the flame poison would be a hundred times stronger than usual on the fifteenth of every month.
At this moment, Xiao Junlin felt as if he was in a fire cave. He knew that it would be difficult for him to survive in the ice cellar without cooling tonight. Just when Xiao Junlin thought he was going to die in this night without anyone paying attention to him, suddenly a soft hand was placed on his forehead, and a trace of coolness traveled along his meridians to his whole body.
In half a cup of tea, the red skin on Xiao Junlin's body that was burned by the poison slowly faded away, dispelling the burning of his internal organs by the flame poison.
"Who...are you?" Xiao Junlin asked this question with difficulty, relying on his strong will.
The tall and slender figure standing beside the bed slashed down with a knife, successfully knocking the man unconscious. "Luckily I have ice abilities, otherwise you would look like a roasted prawn, and I really don't know how to save you."
Gu Hua, who had left and returned, took advantage of the hazy moonlight, walked out of the farm again and got on the carriage driven by Lin Bo. The horse's hooves made a "clack clack" sound in the silent night.
Gu Hua leaned against the carriage and closed her eyes to rest. She would still feel tired after using her supernatural powers excessively.
After dinner, he chatted with the boss for a while. After he left, when the carriage was halfway there, Gu Hua suddenly remembered that the man on the farm in the original owner's memory in his previous life died of poisoning today, on this full moon night.
Although the man showed no signs of the poison taking effect when he left, Gu Hua remembered that if the man died and his subordinates came to Jiangzhou, he would not be able to escape the same fate as the original owner.
So he went back out of concern, and when he came back and saw that the man had really taken effect of the poison, Gu Hua was glad that she had come back in time to save the man's life.
"I hope you can avoid death from the poison in this life, you bastard."
Although she had no intention of letting the tadpoles in her stomach recognize their father, she couldn't just watch their biological father die of poison in front of her.
It was already midnight when Gu Hua returned to the Gu Mansion.
She first returned to the courtyard where she lived and found it was quiet inside, everyone had fallen asleep. Gu Hua did not call the maid to serve, but walked into the room herself.
I tossed and turned in bed for a while, unable to sleep, and watched the bright moon shining into the room through the window curtains.
Gu Hua sat up, remembering what she had said during the day about moving the valuables in the small warehouse to her own space for storage. She found the key to her own small warehouse, walked lightly to the other side of the residential yard, opened the warehouse door and walked in.
Seeing that there were only a few exquisite porcelains of various kinds, some not-so-expensive ornaments, and some exquisite toys that the original owner played with in his childhood, Gu Hua walked around inside and looked through them. There were quite a few things, but there were really not many particularly valuable items.
Gu Hua felt a sharp pain in his head and his eyes turned black, as if something was trying to break out of its cocoon but was then blocked.
Now there is nothing Gu Hua doesn't understand.
The memory that the original owner did not want to face was probably related to the property of the Gu Mansion. Not knowing what he was thinking of, Gu Hua walked towards the study room where the original owner's father lived.
I came to the door of the study, opened it and walked in to light a candle. On a rosewood writing table, pens, ink, paper and inkstone were neatly arranged. On the desk, there were some gold ornaments that could bring wealth and fortune.
Various antiques are placed in the Duobao Pavilion and several calligraphy and paintings by famous people are hung on the wall, adding a touch of elegance and bookishness to this study room whose decoration is full of the smell of money.
Gu Hua thought that seeing how luxuriously and grandly furnished the study was, there must be a lot of gold, silver, treasures and valuable things hidden in the secret room.
With this thought in mind, Gu Hua reached out his hand to the back of the bookshelf according to his memory and touched a groove. He gently pressed the bulge inside, and heard a creaking sound. The bookshelf slowly turned to reveal a dark room at the back.
The darkroom did not have torches that lit up automatically like in TV dramas. Gu Hua picked up the candle on the desk and walked in. The candlelight illuminated the dark room.
The scene before him stunned Gu Hua.
