Chapter 1286: Seeking the Poisoner Through Blood

After storing the old man’s blood, Jiang Xue said to Mr. Lan, "The old man will wake up in an hour. Now, please find me a quiet room, I need to use the blood to find the person who poisoned him.""No problem!" Mr. Lan agreed readily, then pointed to a guard in the room and instructed, "Ah Kuan, take Miss Jiang over."

The man named Ah Kuan nodded, then walked over to Jiang Xue and said, "Miss Jiang, please."

Jiang Xue put the bottle containing the blood into the medicine box, then followed Ah Kuan out of the room to the neighboring house. After settling Jiang Xue in, Ah Kuan left.

Jiang Xue latched the room door, then carried the blood into the space. As soon as she entered the space, she shouted loudly, "Little Fox, Little Fox, where are you?"

"Woman, shouting so loudly, are you summoning spirits?" Little Fox appeared in front of Jiang Xue and said, annoyed.

"Little Fox, help us out!" Jiang Xue said flatteringly upon seeing Little Fox.

"Help with what?" Little Fox slightly furrowed its brow, instinctively feeling that Jiang Xue’s request for help wasn’t going to be straightforward.

Sure enough, after listening to Jiang Xue, its face changed, and it said, "Woman, do you really think I’m an Immortal?"

Jiang Xue didn’t respond to Little Fox’s words, instead, she directly said, "Five times of barbecue!"

Little Fox was taken aback, somewhat unable to react. Once it understood Jiang Xue’s meaning, it immediately began to bargain, saying, "Woman, you think five times of barbecue is enough to get rid of me? No way!"

"Then how many times do you want?" Jiang Xue glared at Little Fox, gritting her teeth. If it weren’t for needing its help, she wouldn’t even agree to one barbecue.

But there’s no choice now, when asking for help, one must adopt a humble attitude.

"You haven’t even told me what you want me to do yet. You have to say it first so I know how many barbecues are appropriate." Little Fox wasn’t stupid, it needed to decide the number of barbecues based on the difficulty of the task.

Hearing Little Fox say this, Jiang Xue took out the bottle of blood and said to Little Fox, "I need you to use the Gu Poison in the blood to find the person who poisoned him."

Upon hearing this, Little Fox’s fur stood on end, and it said, "Woman, are you thinking I’m too idle or what?"

"What do you mean?" Jiang Xue replied, looking at Little Fox in confusion. Since when did she consider Little Fox idle, and what did its idleness have to do with helping her?

"You!" Little Fox was amused and angered by Jiang Xue’s clueless expression, and shot her a glare, saying, "This isn’t easy to do!"

"How can it be difficult? I saw in a book before that this method can be used to find the person who poisoned him."

"Woman, you need to know, this is Gu Poison."

"I know, I also know this is Mother and Child Gu Poison. Right now I have the blood of the carrier of the Child Gu, and by following this Child Gu’s blood, we can find where the mother Gu is."

Little Fox was stunned for a moment, looking at Jiang Xue and said, "Wait, what did you say? This is Mother and Child Gu?"

"Yes!" Jiang Xue nodded.

"Why didn’t you say so earlier!" Little Fox shot her a look and said, "If it’s Mother and Child Gu, then it’s manageable. Leave it to me, and I’ll help you find where the mother Gu is very quickly."

"Really? Thank you so much then!"

"Wait, what about the promised barbecue?"

"Don’t worry, as long as you’re willing to help and can find the target, I’ll barbecue for you more times, no problem."
