The Elixir is for You, The Poison is for Me

Lu Jing had to admit that he was, after all, just a mortal.

Even though he had been busy solving the problem of his dantian and hadn't had time to think about the possibilities between him and Gu Caiwei.

But when he opened the door and saw the beautiful widow outside, just out of the bath and wearing only a thin veil, he still felt a little overwhelmed.

Especially tonight, Gu Caiwei was unusually proactive, entering the room without a word and biting his lips directly.

Seeing that the atmosphere had been built up to this point, if Lu Jing still didn't react, he could just take a taxi to the andrology department.

So, in the end, he was successfully pinned onto the bed by Gu Caiwei.

Then, that unusually spicy medicinal wine flowed down his throat and into his stomach.

The kiss lasted for almost half a minute, and then Gu Caiwei raised her head, saw the doubt in Lu Jing's eyes, and finally explained, "This medicinal wine... is to help Lu Lang get in the mood. Don't worry, Lu Lang doesn't need to be responsible for what happens tonight, just treat it as a ridiculous dream."

"Madam Gu..." Lu Jing smiled wryly.

Gu Caiwei bit her lip, her eyes filled with mist, "Lu Lang... do you still have to call me that?"

"Caiwei... I..." Lu Jing's words were only halfway out when his expression suddenly changed.

On the other side, Gu Caiwei finally heard those two words as she wished, and tears flowed down her cheeks. As the light veil slipped, she leaned close to Lu Jing's ear and murmured, "Lu Lang, I have a secret to tell you..."

But unexpectedly, she was pushed away by Lu Jing before she could finish her sentence.

"Wait, wait, stop for a moment!" Lu Jing reached out and draped the light veil back over Gu Caiwei's body, then decisively distanced himself from her.

The medicinal wine had only been in his stomach for a short time, but Lu Jing had already felt the abnormality in his dantian.

The true qi entrenched there was like snow illuminated by the sun, showing faint signs of melting.

The initial speed was very slow... but as time passed, the scorching sun became hotter and hotter, and the melting speed of the snow under the scorching sun also became faster and faster.

"Did you poison the wine?" Lu Jing looked at Gu Caiwei opposite him, his expression complex.

As a result, the latter looked blank when she heard this, "Poison? What poison?"

Lu Jing tried to press Xiuxiu's chest, giving her CPR, but it didn't have any effect. The girl's heartbeat and pulse were already gone.

On the other side, Gu Caiwei collapsed directly to the ground, her pretty face devoid of blood.

After her husband passed away, Xiuxiu was almost the only relative by her side. But now, even this last person had abandoned her, and Xiuxiu's death was very strange. Just a cup of tea ago, she was still encouraging her to pursue the happiness in front of her and imagining the life after returning to the capital.

Who knew that in the blink of an eye, the person was gone.

Gu Caiwei only felt a trance, but even at this time, she still didn't forget about Lu Jing's poisoning, using all her strength to prevent the pain from engulfing her, and then asked with a trembling voice, "Young Master Lu, your body..."

"Um... we'll talk about it later."

When he first realized that he was poisoned, Lu Jing was actually quite panicked, but after a while, he found that the poison... didn't seem as serious as he had imagined.

Although the internal force in his dantian was decreasing rapidly, there were no other symptoms besides that. Most importantly, Gu Caiwei, who had just fed him the poisonous wine mouth-to-mouth, was still alive and kicking, without any signs of poisoning.

Could it be... that this poison is specifically for dissolving internal force?

Lu Jing's expression became strange when he thought of this.

However, he had only been poisoned for a short time, and he didn't know if there would be other changes later, so he didn't dare to draw a conclusion immediately. And Xiuxiu, the only one who might know the inside story, couldn't be saved, so Lu Jing told Gu Caiwei to wait and see.

And this wait lasted for half an hour.

In Gu Caiwei's eyes, Lu Jing, who was sitting cross-legged at this time, was obviously at a critical juncture.

Concentrating his mind and working hard to fight against the toxins in his body in a life-and-death struggle!

But in fact, Lu Jing did practice his skills, but only for a short while. After discovering that it was useless, he decisively gave up, and then just sat there, bored and waiting.

Before this, he also entrusted Amu to scout around, and found that there were indeed some sneaky guys outside Gu Caiwei's house, but because he could ride Amu, Lu Jing wasn't too worried, just letting Amu continue to monitor the movements of those people.

And after half an hour, Lu Jing's expression became even more strange.

He found that after the poisonous wine had completely dissolved the internal force in his dantian, it also sealed his Ren and Du meridians, which are the meridians that ordinary martial arts practitioners need to pass through to breathe in the vitality of heaven and earth.

The technique... was very similar to the old fisherman who had sealed his acupoints before, but unlike acupoint sealing, it didn't affect his actions.

Lu Jing guessed that this was to prevent him from breathing in again. For ordinary martial artists, it meant that they could no longer generate internal force, but for Lu Jing, his internal force itself didn't come from breathing, but was generated out of thin air from the dantian... so it didn't seem to be affected.

Moreover, when his internal force was refreshed next time, it didn't seem like a difficult thing to reverse and break through the sealed acupoints.

In that case, wouldn't this poison have no effect on him at all?

No, how is that possible?!

Who said this thing has no effect! This is exactly what he needs most right now!

Because as long as he has this poison, the trouble that has been bothering him all along, that the excess internal force in his body cannot be consumed, will have an effective solution.

Lu Jing can also get rid of the shadow of death from constantly practicing until he explodes. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a burst of energy.

No, he must get the formula for this thing!
