C19 Shattered Heart Powder
The next morning, after Qin Yuan finished his cultivation and got up, he pushed open the door and saw Li Qingzhi with an ugly face. She was squatting in the yard, watering the plants.
Hearing the door to Qin Yuan's room open, Li Qingzhi stood up and said, "Young Master, can I get you some hot water to wash your face?"
Qin Yuan nodded and fell into deep thought. "How should I ask her? Could it be that I peeked at you taking a bath last night and already know your true appearance? Or was it insinuating that I had seen through her disguise? I keep having the feeling that she doesn't have any evil intentions. "
"Young Master?" Li Qingzhi called out to him a few times before she finally pulled Qin Yuan's attention back to her.
Qin Yuan took the wooden basin filled with hot water and towels from Li Qingzhi. He called out to the latter, who was about to turn around and leave, "Wait, I have something to ask you."
Li Qingzhi was somewhat surprised, but she still stopped and stood in front of Qin Yuan.
"Young master!" This is bad! "
Just then, an anxious voice called out. Qin Yuan looked towards the voice and saw that it belonged to his mother's personal maid. Looking at her flustered appearance, Qin Yuan couldn't help but have a bad premonition.
"Young master, come here quickly. The Patriarch's illness is serious again!"
After Xiao Cui committed suicide by consuming poison, Qin Yuan found that bottle of Shattered Heart Powder in her room. It was very easy to associate it with Qin Wangchuan's illness, so he gave it to He Shaotan for research, hoping to find some useful clues.
Under the current circumstances, Qin Yuan couldn't bother to ask Li Qingzhi any other questions. He instructed, "Qingzhi, help me to go to the Alchemy Pavilion to invite Elder He from the Beautiful World."
Li Qingzhi was ordered to leave while Qin Yuan immediately headed for his father's room.
Qin Wang Chuan's face turned blue. Although he did not lose his consciousness and entered a dazed state, he could still clearly feel the pain of his heart tearing as he cried out in pain.
Jin Shuang who was at the side anxiously cried, but there was nothing she could do, she could only choke and hold Qin Wang Chuan's hand.
"Father!" Qin Yuan quickly walked into the room and went straight to Qin Wang Chuan's bed. Without saying anything further, he used the method that He Shao Tang taught him and slowly infused the gentle energy into Qin Wang Chuan's tendons, temporarily protecting his heart from being corroded further.
Under the infusion of Qin Yuan's True Divine Spirit Qi, Qin Wang Chuan's complexion slightly improved as the pain in his face also subsided.
After half an hour, He Shaodang, Tiger Xiaohu, and Li Qingzhi rushed over. They didn't even bother to pay their respects as He Shaodang quickly checked Qin Wanchuan's pulse.
"Elder He, what's Wang Chuan's situation like?" Jin Shuang couldn't help but ask.
"Very bad." He Shaodang sighed. "The poison has already corroded seventy percent of his heart meridian, I'm afraid …"
Jin Shuang heard this and felt the world spinning around her. She almost fainted, but fortunately, Li Qingzhi managed to stabilize her.
Although Qin Yuan was anxious, he didn't panic. He keenly caught the word "poison gas" in He Shaotang's words and asked, "Elder He, you said the poison gas invaded father's heart, so you're saying …"
"That's right, it's the poison that young master asked me to test last time." "Before Miss Li came to look for me, I just found out that the poison was called 'Heart Shattering Powder'." He Shaotong replied.
Jin Shuang held onto Qin Yuan tightly and asked urgently, "Yuan'er, what poison do you all think? Isn't your father ill? "
Qin Yuan did his best to suppress the anger in his heart as he explained the entire matter to Jin Shuang.
At this point, Qin Yuan was already certain that not only was his father poisoned, but it was also related to the deaths of his two deceased brothers. However, the most important thing right now was how to pull Qin Wangchuan back from the dead.
"Even though we know about this poison, if we want to cure Patriarch, we have to get the Heart Shattering Powder's antidote or the Fire Poison Scorpion Tail Crocodile's heart," He Shaotian said. The Heart Shattering Powder was a poison from the Chu Clan, and its antidote was a secret that was not passed down. As for the Fire Poison Scorpion's Tail Alligator, it has been extinct in the Great Chu for many years. Wanting to find it would be equivalent to looking for a needle in a haystack. "
Qin Yuan immediately had the thought of snatching the antidote from Qin Jue, but his mind was quickly suppressed. Even if Qin Jue had the antidote, he would still keep it to himself. Facing Qin Jue head on, he was not his opponent yet; stealing from him was almost impossible.
Therefore, their only hope was the Fire Poison Scorpion's Tail Crocodile.
"Old He, how much longer can my father hold on?" Qin Yuan asked.
He Shaodang pondered for a moment and said, "I will do my best to slow down the rate at which the poison gas is corroding. I must find the antidote or the heart of the fire scorpion tail crocodile at the most three months. Otherwise, there will be no cure if the poison completely enters the heart."
Qin Yuan nodded and said to He Shaotian, Li Qingzhi, and the others, "I'll go to the Ranger's Guild first. The intelligence network of the guild is quite wide, so maybe we can get some useful information from them. Before I return, I'll have to trouble you all to take care of my father and mother. "
Before leaving, Qin Yuan whispered into the big tiger's ear, "You guys keep an eye on Li Qingzhi. No matter what she did, remember to report it to me."
Not long after, at the Ranger's Guild.
Ever since Qin Yuan's group escorted the herb collecting team into the attacks of the Purple Eyed Horse Monkey, the demonic beasts surrounding Chu Shi City underwent unusual movements. Under this influence, the activities of the rangers were greatly reduced, and the Ranger Guild became somewhat deserted.
Zuo Qian and the Marquis of the Right, on the other hand, were guarding the guild carefully, sorting out the information about the Rangers in Chu Shi City.
At this moment, the main door of the Ranger's Guild was pushed open, attracting the attention of the left and right officials. When they raised their heads, they saw that it was Qin Yuan.
"Young Hero Qin, long time no see."
"Are you here to hand in your task?"
Qin Yuan shook his head and cupped his hands, "You two, I have a request to ask of you."
"But say it."
"It's fine."
"I would like to know about the Heart Shattering Powder's antidote or the Fire Poison Scorpion Tail Alligator's information."
Zuo Qian and the Marquis looked at each other and silently took out a crystal from the counter. They circulated their Astral Energy and injected it into the crystal. Then, they closed their eyes and started searching.
This crystal was known as the "information crystal", it was similar to the manual crystal that recorded the 'Reverse Heaven and Earth Art'. It could record a huge amount of information, and only the corresponding astral energy could read or modify it.
A moment later, both of them opened their eyes at the same time.
"The only cure for Heartbreak Powder is in the hands of the family that made the poison, which is also the Bai Family, one of the four great forces of Mozhou. Even the Ranger Guild doesn't know of this." Zuo Qian said.
"As for the Flaming Scorpion Tail Crocodile, someone witnessed it earlier this year near the Western Orange Mountain in the Great Chu." The Marquis of the Right said.
The Great Chu Empire was a borderland of the Mozhou continent, and in terms of prosperity, it was at the bottom of the many other countries of the Mozhou continent. Qin Yuan did not expect the Heartbreak Powder to be produced by one of the four great powers of the Mo Continent. He vaguely thought of something.
"The Bai clan definitely cannot be provoked. In that case, we can only go to the Western Orange Mountain and search for that Flame Poison Scorpion Tail Alligator …" Qin Yuan thought to himself. Then he thanked Zuo Qian and the Marquis of the Right and was about to leave, but was stopped by the two of them.
"Young Hero Qin, please wait."
"The president wants to meet you."
Qin Yuan was stunned. He could not think of a reason for the guild leader to want to see him, but he had just gotten the information he wanted from the guild. It would not be good if he did not meet with the guild leader.
Receiving Qin Yuan's consent, the left and right officials walked behind the counter and turned the switch. Opening a secret door, they made a inviting gesture.
