The man's voice after the change in tone sounded deep and hoarse, but there was also a hint of chilliness in it. When he spoke, he went straight to the point. He didn't probe them out at all, and just went straight to the point. This was the style that men always had. His eyes were focused on Jiu Mu Li, and a faint sense of hope and nervousness appeared in his eyes.
The first time he saw Jiu Mu Li, he knew that she was different from the others. Her medical skills were also a hundred times better than those mediocre doctors in the palace. If there was anyone in this world who could break the blood curse, then it would definitely be this woman in front of him!
That was what she had seen when she was flipping through Qin Zheng's books madly back then. It was written inside that the blood curse was an extremely evil insect poison that was fed with the blood of 1008 virgins. With such a secretive and sinister method, the effects of this Gu poison was extraordinary.
The conditions for this Gu poison to be here were exceptionally harsh, so it was rarely seen. She had never thought that she would actually be able to see an instance of it in her current life.
She raised her eyes and sized the man up with great interest. The interest in his eyes caused the man to slightly frown.
He forced himself to look up and down like someone was admiring something, but his voice couldn't help but stiffen. "Have you finished reading? Is there any way to resolve this? "
"A solution..." Jiu Mu Li dragged her tone as she watched the man's gaze follow her with satisfaction. A shallow layer of apprehension covered her eyes, and she shrugged with a smile, "Of course there is."
What a joke, how could there be an illness that she couldn't cure with her wondrous hands, Jiu Mu Li?
No matter how rare the Gu poison was, she had her own methods to deal with it.
All these years, he had begged for medicine and searched everywhere for famous doctors. Even the famous Fairy Doctor was helpless against the poison he had been infected with. After all, the blood curse was truly a profound and insidious poison. It was only recorded in history and no one had ever researched how to cure it.
Jiu Mu Li frowned and thought for a while, then after considering the possibility, she slowly spoke out, shook her head and sighed: "I am not confident."
It was as if a ladle of cold water had descended from the sky, extinguishing the joy in the man's heart. A profound look appeared in his eyes as his heart spun a hundred times. After an intense mental struggle, he finally hardened his heart and said, "As long as I have half a chance, I can give it a try!"
A success rate of fifty percent was already considered very high for him.
Jiu Mu Li smiled like a cunning fox, deliberately keeping silent until the man started to pace back and forth, unable to hide the rise and fall of her heart. Only then did she lazily say, "Although I'm not completely sure, I still have a 90% chance."
"You!" The man's chest heaved violently. Was she toying with him?
However, after a moment, his expression turned to one of joy. He couldn't conceal his joy as he asked, "Are you 90% sure?"
"That's what I can guarantee." Jiu Mu Li's eyes sparkled as he replied.
A success rate of 90%! This was a rare occurrence among all the famous doctors that he had ever invited. They all refused and hesitated, unwilling to admit that they were no match for him.
However, if they wanted to cure this Gu poison, it was indeed outside their capabilities.
So many old people with white beards didn't dare to protect her. On the contrary, this young girl in front of him had a heroic spirit and grandeur that even the older generation didn't have.
"Alright, then tell me the formula. I'll do my best to look for it." The man's eyes lit up as he spoke full of confidence.
Jiu Mu Li recounted the prescription in one go, "Because this medicine is fed with the blood of a thousand and eight virgins, the medicinal ingredients needed to solve the problem are extremely minuscule and complicated, a total of a thousand and eight of them. If you do not have confidence, then do not ask anymore. "
"Confidence? I have searched hard for many years, so naturally, I am confident! " His words were sonorous and powerful, and his eyes were sparkling. "In order to cure this illness, I am not afraid even if I have to go through countless hardships!"
The firmness in his words finally caused her brows to loosen slightly as she fluently recited a series of prescriptions.
There were thousands upon thousands of medicinal ingredients, and each one wasn't difficult to come by. The man's heart finally settled down. A few of them were rarer and presumably could be found with a little searching, and not irreplaceable.
Relieved, he promised in a deep voice, "If it's only these medicines, I can gather them in five days!"
Five days, actually fit Jiu Mu Li's expectations.
However, she shook her head with rapt attention, and her expression froze in an instant. Every word she spat was extremely difficult and heavy, "However, this medicine still needs one last thing, and this is the most important part. Everything can only be displayed with the premise of being surrounded by this thing. "
The man's long eyebrows were locked, and he kept watching her.
"I need a few drops of blood from the person who was poisoned by the Gu poison!" Jiu Mu Li pondered for a moment, and still cruelly stated her request. She knew that this condition was extremely harsh on the person in front of her.
However, the eyes of the man in front of her that were shining brightly due to wanting to heal suddenly dimmed at this moment, and the radiance in his eyes disappeared without a trace. He fell into a long silence. He hesitated for almost an entire quarter of an hour before making up his mind.
It was obvious that he was only 25 or 26 years old, yet he was like an old man who had just passed away. His entire body was emitting an ancient aura without any ripples.
Jiu Mu Li silently cursed in her heart, but she still nodded and promised, "Alright. I'll see you in a month. "
However, to her surprise, the man's expression relaxed. He waved his hand and sent the guest away, saying indifferently, "Since that's the case, then I'll need to return to the palace to meditate. We'll meet again next month."
Hey, hey, if you're done eating then just throw it away.
However, no matter how much she complained in her heart, the man had already slowly stepped into the Gongquan. Closing the door behind him, he shut her out, as if he had cut her off from the rest of the world.
Jiu Mu Li gritted her teeth so hard they almost shattered outside the door. Until now, she didn't even know the boy's name, but she had taken on such a difficult task for nothing!
