Chapter 549 - I Have My Secrets As Exchange

Yin Xie didn't dare to plead when he heard this.

Huh?

Qin Shu looked at Yin Yue. Did she lock her in the cold storage?

So, this man saved her from the cold storage?

Yin Yue pursed her lips. She knew her master's temper. This made her curious about who was this woman in front of her?

"Master, I'm willing to be punished for my mistakes." Yin Yue lowered her eyes.

Qin Shu gripped the gun in her hand tightly and aimed it at Yin Yue's arm. She pulled the trigger without hesitation because she was not easy to bully.

The bullet hit Yin Yue's left arm accurately, exactly at the same position as her.

Yin Yue's wound was on the same arm. The moment she was. .h.i.t by the bullet, she gritted her teeth and did not make a sound.

A sharp gunshot sound was heard. "Lock her and Yin Xie in the cold storage and release them after two hours. There is no need for Yin Yue to follow me anymore."

Yin Yue looked panicked when she heard that. "Master, I know I was wrong. Please let me continue to stay by your side."

The man said, "The moment you shot her, you were no longer qualified to stay by my side."

Yin Yue's face turned pale when she heard that.

"Master, for the sake of Yin Yue protecting you all these years, can you..."

Yin s.h.i.+ wanted to plead on behalf of Yin Yue but was interrupted by the man. "Whoever pleads for her mercy, will not need to stay by my side anymore."

Yin s.h.i.+ didn't dare to speak again.

Qin Shu glanced at the people in front of her and then at the man. She couldn't see through this person. He was so angry over an outsider like her... she couldn't figure it out.

Yin Yue pursed her lips. She knew that once her master made a decision, there was no chance of going back. She raAfraidised her head and looked at the man. "Master, can I go and look for the medicine first? I'll come back after finding the medicine and be punished."

"I want to go and find the medicine first too, then come back and be punished," Yin Xie echoed.

The man asked, "What medicine?"

"When the master was unconscious, I asked Master Gu to have a look at you. He said that to stop the poison from entering the lungs, you need medicine. Otherwise, you won't be able to save yourself."

After Yin s.h.i.+ finished speaking, he handed the blueprint in his hand to the man, "Master, this is the medicine. You can't buy it on the market, so you can only go to the mountain to look for it. Moreover, Master Gu also said..."

Yin s.h.i.+ didn't know what to say.

The man took the blueprint. Because he couldn't see it, he only held it in one hand and asked, "What else did he say?"

"Master Gu said that he didn't have enough time to go to the mountain to look for the medicine. I'm afraid..."

Yin s.h.i.+ stuttered as he spoke. The man was a little displeased. "When did you start stuttering?"

Yin s.h.i.+ spat out four words with difficulty. "Afraid that there's no hope for you to recover."

Moreover, Gu Yan had only given them medicinal herbs that could stop the poison from entering his lungs. As long as they picked them up, they would be able to suppress the poison.

It was just that they had yet to agree to detoxify their master.

The man was startled, but he understood his own physical condition. In addition to his actions just now, it was a miracle that he had not fainted yet.

Qin Shu was stunned. Since Gu Yan could say that, it meant that the poison in the man in front of her had entered his internal organs and was much more serious than Fu Tingyu's.

She glanced at the drawing in the man's hand. On it was a picture of a medicinal herb drawn with a pencil. It looked a little familiar.

She could not help but take two steps forward. She took the drawing directly and looked at it carefully.

The man noticed the girl's movements and knew that she was curious. He loosened his fingers and let her see.

Yin Yue's voice was pleading, "Master, let us go find the medicine first. We will definitely be able to find the medicine in the shortest time."

"Master, let them go. I will ask them to bring more people. They will be able to find it in the shortest time possible." Yin Yue's face was full of nervousness. She could not waste a minute as the time was tight.

The man pursed his lips and grabbed the girl's wrist of behaviour n.

Qin Shu wanted to break free subconsciously when her wrist was suddenly grabbed. The man tightened his grip.

Qin Shu said angrily, "Let go of me quickly."

The man pretended he was deaf. "If I die like this and you don't even remember me, I'm very unwilling to die."

The man's voice was a little sad.

Qin Shu was stunned. She didn't understand what he meant.

The others were stunned too, as well as Yin Yue.

"So, I don't want to not die. I can't die just like that," the man instructed. "You guys go and find the medicine, with the fastest speed possible."

Yin Yue and the others instantly heaved a sigh of relief. "We'll go now."

Qin Shu struggled to free herself from the man's hand. Perhaps she had used too much force. The man knew that she was unhappy, so he let go.

She said, "I have this herb."

As soon as Qin Shu finished speaking, the people across from her looked at her, their eyes flas.h.i.+ng with hope.

Yin Yue hurriedly asked, "You have the herb. where is it? Can you give it to Master?"

The man turned his head too because he did not expect that she would have this herb in her hands.

Qin Shu ignored Yin Yue and looked at the man. "I can give you the herb for free, but you have to promise me one thing."

The man asked, "What is it?"

Qin Shu said, "I'll leave with Gu Yan after I get the herbs."

"Why are you so stingy? Can't you just give me the herbs? You're leaving tomorrow anyway. You don't care about one afternoon or one night."

The man's voice was a little helpless. She was not so stingy when she was young.

"..." Qin Shu said, "I want to leave as soon as possible."

The man was helpless.

"Gu Yan can't leave. He hasn't detoxified Master yet," Yin Xie couldn't help but remind him.

The man was silent for a while and said, "Promise me that you'll leave tomorrow, and I'll tell you a secret."

Qin Shu was curious. "What secret?"

The man said, "About... my secret."

His secret?

Qin Shu glanced at the man in front of her. He was indeed quite mysterious. Until now, she still didn't know his name.

A secret about him was too tempting.

She thought for a while and said, "Then answer me one question first, and I'll decide whether to agree or not."

The man said, "You ask."

She thought of this question long ago, Qin Shu asked directly, "Why are you helping me?"

She wanted to ask this question for a long time, but she did not. No one would help someone for no reason. In addition to what had happened just now, she had an illusion that the man in front of her not only knew who she was but also... knew her.

Anyway, she didn't know him, so she was curious.

The man thought for a while and said, "If I don't help you, it's impossible for you to take Gu Yan away from here. Although I like your bossy behaviour, I don't want you to get hurt."

"..." Qin Shu: "There's no other reason?"

The man said, "As for the other reasons, I'll tell you later."

Qin Shu:"..."

Only now the people knew that the woman who followed their master for the past two days came here with the intention of taking Gu Yan away.

The key point was that their master was helping her.

Only Gu Yan could cure the poison in their master's body. Now that Gu Yan was gone, it would be difficult to catch him again.

The man: "Do you agree to my terms?"
