Chapter 809 Countermeasures
Facing Xuan Xiao's dying counterattack, Xuan Hong had no ability to resist at all.

After a while, Xuan Xiao forced half a bottle of potion into his mouth, and then he lay limply on the ground, his whole body numb and unable to move.

Seeing this, Xuan Xiao got off him, turned over and lay on the ground beside him, breathing heavily.

Gu Chan sneered and said, "You are really cruel! After all, he is the village chief of your Xuanyue Village, and he is also your partner. Are you going to poison him to death just for your own sake?"

"This old guy has done so many evil things that he deserves to die. If his death can save my life and the lives of all my brothers, then I would rather let him die." Xuan Xiao said cruelly.

"puff!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Hong opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. His eyes closed and he died on the spot.

Xuan Xiao said in a deep voice, "That's it. You poisoned him to death. When the villagers find him dead tomorrow morning, they will call the coroner to perform an autopsy on him. You will be blamed then."

"Don't worry. This bottle of poison is colorless and tasteless. Once it enters his body, it will only make his blood surge. He is old, and he has a beautiful girl like me at home. Then he took this medicine that makes his blood boil. I'm sure you know what the coroner will find!" Gu Chan said cunningly.

"You...you are so awesome! You actually gave him an aphrodisiac?" Xuan Xiao said in shock.

He originally thought that Gu Chan had really given poison to the old man Xuan Hong, but judging from the current situation, he had underestimated Gu Chan. In fact, Gu Chan had already thought of a countermeasure and had calculated everything.

At this moment, he had to be afraid of the seemingly harmless girl in front of him.

Gu Chan smiled faintly and said, "It's not a proper aphrodisiac, it's just a modified aphrodisiac I made."

"You are so cruel. I have nothing to say now that I am in your hands. You can kill me or chop me up as you please." Xuan Xiao completely gave up the idea of ​​resistance and lay on the ground without saying anything more.

Gu Chan chuckled, reached into the bag on her waist and took out a white pill, threw it in front of Xuan Xiao and said, "Eat it! This pill is called Qi-boosting Pill. After you take it, your injuries will recover at the fastest speed."

"Do you think I will believe your nonsense?" Xuan Xiao said disdainfully.

"Your life is mine anyway, so are you afraid of taking poison? And to put it bluntly, looking at your current horrible appearance, it would be a simple matter for me to kill you. Why should I force you to take poison?" Gu Chan said, spreading his hands.

"This..." Xuan Xiao was speechless.

On second thought, he felt that there was nothing wrong with what Gu Chan said.

He was no longer suspicious and slowly reached out to pick up the Qi-replenishing pill on the ground in front of him and put it into his mouth.

As soon as the Qi-replenishing pill entered his mouth, it immediately turned into a stream of clear water and went down his throat into his body. The next second, he felt that the weak spiritual energy in his body began to be nourished, and the injuries on his body began to slowly recover under the effect of the medicine.

Gu Chan smiled and said, "How is it? I didn't lie to you, did I?"

"What do you want? You beat me so badly and then saved me. I really don't understand what you mean." Xuan Xiao said dumbfounded.

"I have just arrived in the Diyue Kingdom, so I am not familiar with the situation here. Now I need someone to act as a guide for me. This is my usual style of doing things, so I chose to spare your life. When you follow me to the capital of the Diyue Kingdom, I will slowly consider how to deal with you." Gu Chan explained.

After saying that, she stood up and walked towards the side room on the right.

The calico cat and the donkey stayed in the yard, continuing to stare at Xuan Xiao lying on the ground. Xuan Xiao calmed down, closed his eyes, and quietly adjusted his breathing, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Early the next morning.

While Gu Chan was still sleeping in the house, a villager passed by the village chief's house, discovered the situation in the yard, and then ran to inform everyone in the village.

Just half an incense stick of time later, everyone in the village rushed over and called your coroner over as well.

In order to avoid being involved, Xuan Xiao had already escaped early when it was almost dawn, so at this moment, he pretended to be there to watch the fun, standing in the yard with everyone else, watching the coroner perform an autopsy on Xuan Hong.

At the same time, he deliberately said, "I heard that yesterday afternoon, the village chief brought back a very beautiful young girl from outside the village. Just one night later, he died. There must be something wrong!"

"That's for sure! If the little girl hadn't come, he wouldn't have died. Once the little girl came, he died. It might have something to do with this little girl."

"I don't think it has anything to do with the girl. We all know what kind of person the village chief is. On the contrary, I think it would be better if the girl didn't suffer any injustice."

"Could it be that this old man did something to the little girl last night?"

Under Xuan Xiao's intentional or unintentional guidance, the villagers really began to whisper and talk among themselves.

After all, everyone knows what ugly things old man Xuan Hong has done in private over the years, but because he is the village chief, no one dares to speak out.

Now the old man is lying in the yard, and there is a pretty girl in the side room next to him. It is hard not to wonder whether he did something evil last night that led to his death.

Xuan Xiao saw that everyone had started to discuss the matter, and he couldn't help but smile to himself. He then stared at the coroner who was squatting on the ground examining the body and said, "You have been examining for quite some time, but have you found anything? How did the village chief die?"

"Alas! He was too old. He must have taken a lot of aphrodisiacs last night, which caused his blood to spurt out and he died. In my opinion, this matter should not be spread outside. Everyone should come and help bury him quietly. Otherwise, if we really report it to the authorities and the government finds out something wrong, it will be a disgrace to our Xuanyue Village!" said the coroner with a long sigh.

When the villagers heard what he said, they all turned their heads to look towards the side room on the right.

The coroner winked at Xuan Xiao and said, "Go to the side room over there and take a look at that little girl."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Xuan Xiao nodded.

After saying that, he quickly ran to the side room on the right, pushed open the door and walked in.

At this time, Gu Chan was still sleeping in bed. She was awakened and said angrily, "Are you sick? Why can't you let me sleep so early in the morning?"

"Oh my dear aunt, everyone is outside in the yard now, you must not make any sound! The coroner has examined the body, and it is just as you expected last night, so you continue to pretend to be asleep, and I will go outside and tell everyone that you have been drugged and have not yet awakened." Xuan Xiao whispered hurriedly.

"Well! You're smart. I like dealing with smart people like you the most." Gu Chan said with satisfaction.

Then she fell back to sleep, pretending she knew nothing.

Xuan Xiao didn't dare to provoke her, so he quickly retreated respectfully and closed the door carefully.
