Chapter 2601 - 2601 Cloud black grass
2601 Cloud black grass
Gu Xin didn’t have to worry about the rest of the night. She was woken up before daybreak and hadn’t rested for 20 hours.
However, she still remembered that she had promised ah Yin to detoxify her.
After tidying up a room in the nanlin diplomatic mission’s residence, Gu Xin received the set of silver needles that Lu Zheng had given her from Dong Xue.
She let ah Yin lie down and said, ” don’t be nervous later. It might hurt a little when you insert the needle. You have to bear with it and don’t move.
Ah Yin nodded. Princess Xinxin, don’t worry. I’m the best at enduring pain. As long as the poison can be detoxified, no matter how painful it is, I can bear it.
Gu Xin believed ah Yin’s words and nodded. Without further ado, she began to examine the patient.
Ah Yin felt pain after the first needle was inserted, but she could bear this level of pain.
Ah Yin didn’t even have to clench her teeth for the second and third needle.
By the fourth needle, her forehead began to sweat slightly.
Gu Xin smelled a strange smell, which should be coming from ah Yin’s body.
As Gu Xin inserted the fifth needle, she asked, ” “Does your nanlin have cloud black grass?”
Ah Yin was stunned. Princess Xinxin, what did you say? This servant didn’t hear clearly, can you repeat it?”
Gu Xin inserted the needle and twisted it, ” “Cloud black grass. It was a plant with leaves that looked like clouds but were pure black in color. It was the size of a child’s palm. Most of them grow in damp places, such as in mountain creeks or beside small streams.”
Ah Yin thought for a moment and replied,”Princess Xinxin, I’ve seen this kind of grass described by you in nanlin.” It’s in the forest on the outskirts of the nanlin capital. This servant has seen it before.”
For people like them who had been trained to be spies in the enemy’s camp since young, most of them had better brains and good memories.
Ah Yin paused and said,”but I don’t know what that grass is called. I’m not sure if it’s the black cloud grass Princess Xinxin mentioned.” However, the grass was indeed the size of a child’s palm. It was pure black and its leaves were like clouds. The reason why this servant remembers is because at that time the second Princess saw it and felt it was strange. She wanted to pick it, but the guard brother stopped her. He said that it was a kind of poisonous grass and without the medical Officer, it was better not to pick it. ”
After ah Yin finished speaking, Gu Xin had already inserted the sixth needle. She picked up the needle and was about to insert the seventh needle when she heard ah Yin’s question and asked, ” “What happened after that? Did your second Princess get the doctor to pick it?”
“The second Princess asked the medical Officer to pick it,” ah Yin said. As for what happened after that, I don’t know. Because it was poisonous, the second Princess didn’t ask much. The royal family’s Medical Officer had said that although poisonous grass was poisonous, it was mutually reinforcing with some other herbs. Perhaps it could be used to make medicine to save people. The second Princess is not interested in this.”
Gu Xin finished the seventh needle and said, ” “I suspect that this cloud black grass is one of the poisons you’ve been poisoned with. In the great Zhou Dynasty, it’s called the black cloud grass. When it’s alone, it’s not very poisonous, but when it’s mixed with some other herbs, like what you said, they complement and counteract each other. Then, it can display its effects. One of its most prominent features is that when one is poisoned by the black cloud grass, the sweat that comes out will have a strange taste, just like food that has gone bad after being left in the open for a long time.”
Ah Yin,”Yingluo.”
She subconsciously wanted to move, but she felt herself sweating.
