Chapter 41: Blood-Sucking Gu Poison

Xu Qing smiled awkwardly. Do you know how to kill pigs?

Qiao Yanhui rubbed his chin and thought about it seriously. In the end, he nodded. I do!

Xu Qing's eyes lit up.

As for Qiao Yanhui, he held his saber and charged towards the wild boar with an imposing manner. His skilled appearance made Xu Qing suspect that this guy was really a butcher who killed pigs. So she had been mistaken previously. His imposing aura was for the sake of intimidating the wild boars?

Qiao Yanhui seemed to have sensed something and looked up while killing the pig. He turned around and saw Xu Qing's strange smile! Instantly, Qiao Yanhui felt very aggrieved. His wife was the one who asked him to kill the pig, so why was she smiling so wretchedly when he turned around?

However, he really liked the feeling of killing pigs, especially when he cut open the artery and blood gushed out. At that moment, Qiao Yanhui was very satisfied. If this pig had been in an awake state, it would have felt even better.

When he thought of this, more and more bloody scenes flashed in Qiao Yanhui's mind. Then, his head hurt more and more. He threw away the knife and hugged his head with a pained expression. Finally, his eyes rolled back and he fell into a pool of blood.

Little Hui! Xu Qing hurriedly ran over and hugged Qiao Yanhui. She held his hand and started to take his pulse, then she frowned. It seemed that it was the aftereffects of the blood clot in his brain. This man couldn't think about the past, or he would be in danger. She had to change his treatment method. Could it be that he was really a butcher in the past?

Sizhi, bring him in. Xu Qing looked at Qiao Yanhui, who was covered in blood, in disdain.

Xu Sizhi obediently dragged Qiao Yanhui into the straw hut step by step. His strenuous appearance made Auntie Wu's heart ache. Xu Sizhi was still a child

Xu Qing didn't have the time to care about this. She packed some pork and asked Auntie Wu to bring it back to eat. Then, she took more than half of the pork and went to Hunter Cao's house.

At this moment, Hunter Cao was wailing. The only breadwinner in the already poor family had collapsed. It was as if the world was ending.

Hunter Cao had an eighty-year-old mother, a wife who was about to give birth, and three children who were less than ten years old. The oldest of the three children was Cao Xiaochao, who was ten years old this year. The other two were seven-year-old and three-year-old. They couldn't work at all. Just thinking about it made him feel bitter.

Xu Qing stood in front of the old wooden door and knocked. Auntie Cao?

The person in the house wiped her tears before rushing out to open the door. Who is it?

The old wooden door was opened, and a tear-stained and rough-looking face appeared. It was Hunter Cao's mother. When she saw who it was, she was puzzled. Little Qing? Why are you here?

I'm here to deliver pork to Hunter Cao. This pig was severely injured by him. Also, take this medicine and apply it on his wound every day. It won't take long for him to recover, Xu Qing said kindly.

Auntie Cao also knew what had happened in the mountains. It was all thanks to Xu Qing that Hunter Cao was able to survive. She was instantly grateful to Xu Qing. However, she couldn't accept the pork. Take this pork back. Your family has suffered too. Give it to the children. We can't take it.

Mother, quickly let her in for a meal! Hunter Cao's voice suddenly sounded. He heard the voice outside and wanted to invite her in. She was his savior.

Auntie Cao was about to say something when she saw Xu Qing throw down the pork and medicine, then run away. I won't go in. I still have to go back and take care of the children.

Xu Qing knew that the Cao family was grateful. She didn't want to waste time, so she quickly went home.

Auntie Cao looked at these things. They were enough to last their family for a while. There was also medicine, which saved them from spending money. She felt heartache. That girl was living a hard life, but she didn't forget to help others. All they could to repay her was to help her more in the future.

When Xu Qing returned, Qiao Yanhui was still unconscious. Seeing that his life wasn't in danger for the time being, Xu Qing went to treat Xu Sizhi. She had found many herbs in the mountains today, but it wasn't that easy to completely expel Xu Sizhi's Gu poison.

According to Ying Zhiyao's notes, Xu Sizhi's Gu poison would live on blood essence until it sucked the host's blood essence dry. At that time, the host would die. Normally speaking, an ordinary person who was poisoned by Gu poison wouldn't be able to live for more than three years. Furthermore, they would become thinner and thinner until they became a mummified corpse. There wouldn't be a single drop of blood ;eft on their bodies, but Xu Sizhi lasted for five years? It was obvious how powerful Xu Sizhi's internal energy cultivation level was!
