Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

When Chi Junlin saw the dejected expression on Wenren Xuan's face, he smiled slightly.

He continued, "It's not that I don't care. At least I care about you now and don't want you to die."

"You...you didn't look down on me because I'm just a daughter of a demonic sect?"

Wenren Xuan's expression showed a hint of doubt.

Chi Junlin smiled and shook his head, saying, "It was true before, but it's not true now."

After saying that, she sighed.

As expected... Chi Junlin has also noticed it now.

Ever since Wenren Xuan shielded her from the poison of the Ghost Plague, extraneous feelings have indeed begun to sprout in her heart.

"That……"

"You'll be fine."

As Chi Junlin spoke, he suddenly reached out and gently stroked Wenren Xuan's hair.

Wenren Xuan was stunned for a moment, and was about to speak.

Suddenly, Chi Junlin abruptly raised his hand.

Holding the dagger, he plunged it fiercely into his own chest!

Blood splatters!

Wenren Xuan was stunned at that moment.

She never imagined that Chi Junlin would, at this moment, so decisively plunge that dagger into her heart.

In Wenren Xuan's mind, even if Chi Junlin used a dagger to pierce her chest at this moment, it would still align with her long-held perception of him.

But Chi Junlin did not hesitate at all.

Is she really willing to trade her life for his?

Will she really make such a decision?

This is neither logical nor in line with Wenren Xuan's understanding.

Something incomprehensible happened.

She simply couldn't understand why Chi Junlin would make such a choice.

After feeling a slight pain, Chi Junlin lowered his head and slowly withdrew the dagger.

Only then did they discover that the dagger contained a hidden mechanism.

After you thrust it out forcefully, the latch will release, and the entire blade of the dagger will retract significantly, leaving only the tip.

It will pierce the skin and cut a wound.

However, it couldn't pierce his own heart at all.

Red King had anticipated this scene.

Because she knew very well that when Yan Chunyu brought Wei Ziqing here, there were only two of them.

If it were truly a life for a life, then Yan Chunyu should have died long ago.

How could they possibly reappear in front of me after that?

So there is only one answer.

A "test" is just a "test".

The Ghost Doctor simply wanted to test whether those who came seeking his treatment were willing to risk everything.

Can one wholeheartedly trust one's medical skills to the point of disregarding life and death?

Only someone like this would make the Ghost Doctor think it's worth saving.

Wenren Xuan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this scene.

It seemed as if he was afraid that Chi Junlin would really trade his life for his own because of this.

She looked at Chi Junlin with a complicated expression and couldn't help but ask, "You knew all along that this knife wouldn't kill you. You knew all along, didn't you?"

At this moment, Wenren Xuan seemed to really hope that Chi Junlin would give her a positive answer.

But Chi Junlin simply shook his head.

He continued, "How could I possibly have known about this beforehand? The Ghost Doctor and I aren't on the same side."

However, if you save me once, I will save you once.

That way, we'll be even.

Chapter 312 The Ghost Doctor

Upon hearing Chi Junlin's words, Wenren Xuan's face revealed a complex expression.

She didn't know how much sincerity Chi Junlin had when he said those words.

What does it mean to be even?

Does she feel that saving her is to make her owe her a favor?

But the scene of Chi Junlin raising his knife and stabbing himself in the chest without hesitation is too vivid to forget.

As a result, feelings that should not have been left in Wenren Xuan's heart remained.

It seems that extraneous feelings have also begun to sprout in her heart...

So Wenren Xuan couldn't help but speak up, saying to Chi Junlin, "Actually..."

"Actually what?"

Wenren Xuan hesitated for a moment, his expression showing struggle.

But in the end, she sighed and said, "Actually... you don't have to save me..."

"What do you mean?"

"I……"

"Alright, you can come up now."

Just then, the ghost doctor upstairs suddenly interrupted their conversation.

Immediately afterwards, a heavy stone door slowly rose up from the wall in front of them.

Then a deep staircase appeared, leading to the second floor.

Upon seeing this, Chi Junlin carried Wenren Xuan up the steps to the second floor of the house.

Here, stand in the open space at the top of the stairs on the second floor.

Then a rumbling sound came from behind.

Something round appeared to have come up in front of the two of them.

Then Chi Jun saw a wooden wheelchair slowly stop not far in front of her.

A girl with snow-white hair and a thin figure was sitting in a wheelchair, staring at him with an extremely complicated look.

Chi Junlin was stunned. He hadn't expected that the "Ghost Doctor," who was rumored to be unpredictable and full of quirks, was actually a young, even somewhat frail, girl in a wheelchair.

This seems somewhat different from the Miao legends that span several generations...

"come on."

As the Ghost Doctor spoke, he propelled his wheelchair forward.

Chi Junlin hesitated for a moment, but still followed behind her.

Not long after, the Ghost Doctor led her to a room filled with small wooden boxes.

There was a bed in the room, and at the Ghost Doctor's prompting, Chi Junlin placed Wenren Xuan on the bed.

At this moment, the Ghost Doctor said to Chi Junlin, "I'm going to treat her now. No matter what you see later, don't stop me. Otherwise, I won't treat her."

Chi Junlin nodded and said confidently, "I believe in your skills."

Upon hearing this, the Ghost Doctor muttered something, something like, "You believe me and then you tear down my house," but I couldn't hear the exact words. In any case, it was a complaint about Chi Junlin's behavior.

Then, the Ghost Doctor wheeled himself to Wenren Xuan's side, removed all her clothes, and carefully examined her body.

After a while, the Ghost Doctor sniffed Wenren Xuan's hand and said, "It's the poison of the Ghost Plague. The stench is too obvious."

"Hey you, bring me the third box in the second row behind you."

"this?"

From right to left.

"this?"

"bring here."

Chi Junlin handed the box on the shelf to the Ghost Doctor as instructed.

The box was made of wood and was very light. But when Chi Junlin held it in his hands, he heard rustling sounds inside, like something alive.

After receiving the box, the Ghost Doctor opened it.

Then they saw that inside was a completely transparent, pale purple scorpion.

The scorpion's tail is dark purple, with a blackish-purple tip.

That tells you its toxicity must be extremely strong.

But the Ghost Doctor was not afraid of her at all. He didn't know what she had done, but suddenly he spat out a puff of smoke into the scorpion.

The scorpion seemed to be mesmerized; its entire body went limp, and it became listless and stopped moving.

The Ghost Doctor then reached out and pinched the purple scorpion's tail, lifting it from the box.

It was like acupuncture, using the stinger of a scorpion's tail to gently prick each acupoint on Wenren Xuan's body.

After Wenren Xuan was stung by the scorpion's stinger, the sting site quickly became red, swollen, and black.

It looks extremely terrifying.

However, Chi Junlin knew that the Ghost Doctor was best at using poison to fight poison, and on the contrary, he never used normal medical techniques.

Using scorpion tails for acupuncture is commonplace for her.

Since she said she would save Wenren Xuan, she would definitely save her.

After the acupuncture was finished, the Ghost Doctor beckoned to Chi Junlin to bring over the black spittoon from the side.

After Chi Junlin did as instructed, he saw Wenren Xuan look pained.

Just as the Ghost Doctor handed over the spittoon, Wenren Xuan coughed up a mouthful of black blood.

"Don't get the floor dirty."

The Ghost Doctor said something.

Chi Junlin nodded, not caring about the Ghost Doctor's terrible attitude.

After spitting out several mouthfuls of black blood, Wenren Xuan's complexion visibly improved.

The marks on her body from the scorpion sting quickly faded and disappeared.

This indicates that the several antagonistic toxins in Wenrenxuan's body actually dissolved into nothingness at this time.

Wenren Xuan was then out of danger.

The ghost doctor then put the scorpion back into the box and wheeled himself back to the shelf where he had placed it.

The room was filled with boxes like these, clearly indicating that this place was teeming with all sorts of poisonous insects.

It’s daunting.

However, when the Ghost Doctor arrived at the shelf, he was stumped.

Because the shelf where the scorpions were originally placed was too high, she couldn't reach it from her wheelchair.

She worked on it for a while, and suddenly a hand reached out from behind and put the scorpion back in its place.

"Let me do it."

Chi Junlin then spoke.
