A female coroner arrived at the Jingzhao Prefecture.

Chapter 285 Entering Langshan (6)

"Shut up!"

Mu Qingcheng was furious. While taking things out of her inner garment, she warned Song Shuyu, "I will not be a widow, nor will I remarry. You have seen my body, so you must be responsible for my reputation!"

The snake venom spread rapidly, and in an instant, Song Shuyu felt dizzy and disoriented. He felt the woman he deeply loved before him becoming increasingly unreal. He struggled to raise his hand, missing his target several times before finally touching her face. He murmured, "I'm sorry, I have to break my promise..."

Mu Qingcheng took out a small wooden box, her fingers trembling as she opened the lid and put the only pill inside into Song Shuyu's mouth!

After he swallowed, she swiftly extended two fingers to seal all the vital acupoints on his body. Then she removed his right boot and sock, rolled up his trouser leg, and found the wound where he had been bitten by a venomous snake.

However, the area around the wound had turned bluish-black, and poisonous blood was seeping out through the tiny wound!

Mu Qingcheng drew the soft sword from her waist, her face serious. "Song Shuyu, you better open your eyes wide and watch how I break your legs!"

Song Shuyu's acupoints were sealed, rendering him unable to move. He closed his eyes, his voice choked with sobs, "I don't want to watch anymore. Go ahead and chop, but be quick, don't hurt me too much."

Mu Qingcheng raised his sword and brought it down!
However, the expected excruciating pain did not come. Instead, a strange sensation arose in her ankle, causing Song Shuyu to suddenly open her eyes!
"Qingcheng, what...what are you doing?"

Mu Qingcheng sat on the ground, with Song Shuyu's right foot resting on her leg. She was looking down, sucking out the poisonous blood one mouthful after another!

Once Song Shuyu realized what was happening, he shouted urgently, "Qingcheng, stop inhaling! You'll get poisoned too, do you know that?!"

Mu Qingcheng ignored him and took a few more breaths. Seeing that the color of the poisonous blood was not so dark, she gathered all her inner strength in her palm and pressed it against his calf, forcing the remaining poisonous blood out little by little!
Song Shuyu couldn't move, not even to push her away. Her bloodshot eyes were blurred with tears...

"master!"

Song Li had just wiped out the snakes and rushed over. Upon seeing the situation, his face turned pale with fright. "Master Mu, has the master been bitten by a snake? You, you move aside, let me handle this!"

Mu Qingcheng forced out the last drop of poisonous blood, withdrew her palm strike, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with her sleeve, and asked, "Song Li, did you bring any wound medicine?"

Song Li immediately took out wound medicine from his sleeve and handed it over. Mu Qingcheng sprinkled the medicine powder on the wound, tore off a piece of clothing, carefully bandaged Song Shuyu, put on his shoes and socks, and released the acupoints.

Seeing Song Shuyu's tears welling up, Mu Qingcheng quickly comforted her, "My lord, the medicine I gave you was the Hundred-Cure Pill, which my father developed to treat corpse poison. However, it can also cure the poison of snakes, insects, and ants. Furthermore, I cut a large wound to force out all the poisonous blood. With this two-pronged approach, your snake poison should be gone."

Song Shuyu grabbed her hand, his Adam's apple bobbing and his lips trembling, but he couldn't utter a word!

"My lord, are you feeling unwell?" Mu Qingcheng's worries, which she had just put aside, surged back into her heart. Before Song Shuyu could answer, she immediately instructed Song Li, "Send the lord back to the city immediately and have a doctor examine his pulse!"

Song Li knelt down and kowtowed three times to Mu Qingcheng, saying emotionally, "From now on, Song Li will only recognize Miss Mu as his mistress, and will be willing to die for her!"

Mu Qingcheng was stunned. "What are you saying? Your master has already severed ties with me and doesn't want me anymore."

Song Li was startled again. He looked at Song Shuyu in disbelief, "Master, have you been possessed?"

Song Shuyu shook his head like a rattle drum!
“If my master doesn’t acknowledge it, I will!” Song Li kowtowed to Mu Qingcheng again in anger, saying, “Mistress, my master was bitten by a snake and his mind is not clear, which is why he is talking nonsense. Once my master is normal, you may punish him as you wish, whether it beating or scolding him!” After saying this, she was about to carry Song Shuyu back to the city.

Song Shuyu refused. He gave Song Li a look and said, "I'm fine now. Go and clear all the snakes from under the stone slab. There's a bull's head carved on that slab, so you can't move it."

"Yes." Song Li understood and got up to leave.

Mu Qingcheng's face lit up with joy, "There's a bull's head on the stone slab? My lord..."

Before she could finish speaking, Song Shuyu embraced her tightly.

He rested his head on her shoulder and neck, his voice filled with anxiety, "Qingcheng, are you poisoned? I'll take you back to the city and have Physician Jin examine you."

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. I already took the Hundred-Cure Pill. My dad said that one pill will keep me healthy for at least five years. Besides, when I was sucking the poisonous blood, I didn't let the poisonous blood go down my throat."

Mu Qingcheng was afraid of being seen by the constables, so she tried to pry Song Shuyu's hands off and get out of his arms, but Song Shuyu's hands were like iron clamps and she couldn't pry them off no matter what she did!

"Thanks to my father-in-law for saving me, I will be a hundred times, a thousand times, more filial to him from now on."

Mu Qingcheng, who was in the middle of a heated argument, glared at these words and said, "What father-in-law does Your Excellency have? Please don't make unfounded claims of kinship!"

"No, your father is my father-in-law! Thank God, I, Song Shuyu, have such a wonderful father-in-law and such a wonderful wife, I..."

Song Shuyu choked with sobs, unable to contain himself. He leaned on her shoulder for a moment before continuing, "Qingcheng, I'm sorry, I take back what I said. I will not sever our ties, and I will not let you marry anyone else. In this life, you can only be my wife."

Jiang Zhan turned around unintentionally and saw this scene. He quickly turned his back and ordered his men not to look.

Having survived a near-death experience, Mu Qingcheng felt waves of fear whenever she thought about almost losing Song Shuyu. Hearing his heartfelt love, her eyes welled up with tears, but she still wanted to teach him a lesson. "You think you're going to be crippled, so you immediately abandon me? Such shallow feelings! How dare you, sir, accuse me of not loving you enough?"

"I... I was afraid of dragging you down, I didn't want to hold you back." Song Shuyu hurriedly raised his head and saw Mu Qingcheng's wet eyes. His heart softened and ached, and he couldn't help but kiss her eyes. "I was too greedy, I wanted too much. I knew you were reserved and not good at expressing your feelings, but I still..."

"Oh, so it was a deliberate act!" Mu Qingcheng slowly interrupted him, her expression one of sudden realization. "And then the master gave me a hard time?"

Song Shuyu immediately panicked, "How could I dare to give you a hard time? Qingcheng, you've misunderstood. I... I just wanted you to coax me a little."

"Oh? How do I coax him?" Mu Qingcheng thought seriously for a moment, then tentatively called out, "Brother Yu?"

"Cough-cough-"

Song Shuyu's handsome face, which had just returned to normal, was suddenly turned crimson from the choking!

Upon hearing the commotion, Song Li glanced at the scene discreetly, then immediately turned his face away, thinking to himself, "My master deserves it. Let's see if he dares to act recklessly again!"
Thank you for your votes, my darlings! I'll update another chapter later.
