Chapter 314: The Witch Doctor, Monk, and the Little White Mouse
“Ugh~!!!”
First there was a shrill scream, which scared the migratory birds on Ziling Island away, and then there were a few excited shouts.
"It's done, it's really done! He can feel the pain!"
"I told you this method would work, right?!"
"Quick, quick, draw the dosage of the herbs and the acupuncture points with simple diagrams!"
"What's there to be excited about? I just feel the pain, but I'm not fully awake yet!"
"Besides, do you really dare to use this method on the King's uncle?!"
"It's my turn, it's my turn. I've wanted to try this ancient recipe for a long time..."
" No, no, no, this medicine is the right one..."
"It's still me..."
"Om, Mani, Padme Hum!"
“Supreme Taiyi Savior of Suffering Heavenly Venerable…”
"I'll ask Erlang Shen..."
"I saw it! I saw his soul..."
What a sin!
Sun Shaozong was on the top floor of the Zhuijin Tower, listening to the chaotic quarrels and the gradually unclear howlings below, and he couldn't help but sigh.
After confirming from Ma Dao-po that day that there was no so-called antidote for the "possession" poison, the Jia family called in a large number of imperial physicians, famous doctors, eminent monks, Taoist priests, witches, and shamans, and launched a joint effort to exorcise evil spirits and cure diseases in the villa where the emperor comes to visit his mother.
In addition, Shuntian Prefecture also made a contribution and contributed a unique "guinea pig" to these "experts": Chen Bo, who accidentally killed his own father after being poisoned and going insane.
Although from a modern perspective, Chen Bo should be innocent, using him to test drugs on Jia Baoyu and Wang Xifeng is really a display of complete lack of humanitarian spirit.
but……
Who these days cares whether a man who killed his father is willing to be a guinea pig?
Besides, he doesn't have many days left to live anyway, so if we try to treat him, there might be a chance that he can wake up.
Moreover, letting a person who has already been poisoned become a guinea pig is much more humane than asking the Jia family to create a few more poisoned people - considering the status and position of Jia Baoyu and Wang Xifeng, this is by no means an unfounded worry!
In the final analysis, it was Chen Bo who brought his own death upon himself. He could have killed anyone else by accident, but he chose to kill his own father. Now he has no one to rely on, so naturally he can be bullied by others.
"Uncle."
Sun Shaozong was staring out the window in a daze, so Jia Yun hurried upstairs, bowed and asked, "It's almost noon now, what would you like to eat, uncle?"
Such a big mess happened in Rongguo Mansion, and Shuntian Mansion, as the "local government office", naturally could not sit idly by. And Sun Shaozong happened to be there and was almost involved in it throughout.
Therefore, after discussing it with Jia Yucun, Han Fuyin decided to go with the flow and send him to stay temporarily in Rongguo Mansion so that he could meet the needs of the Jia family at any time.
Therefore, he lived and ate in Zhuijin Building for three consecutive days.
"I don't have much appetite today."
Sun Shaozong smacked his lips and said casually, "The three-fresh bamboo shoots from the night before yesterday were pretty good, let's have that as the main dish, and then we can get some light-flavored wine - two kilograms of thirty-year-old Zhuangyuanhong will do."
Jia Yun first memorized the wine and dish in his mind, then tried to name a few dishes. Seeing that Sun Shaozong had no objection, he went downstairs and asked the servant who accompanied him to go to the kitchen to serve the dishes.
He went back upstairs, feeling uneasy, holding his half-broken right arm, and asked, "Uncle, my father and second aunt should be okay, right?"
As mentioned before, Jia Yun has already acknowledged Baoyu as his godfather, and the reason why he can now sit in the position of head kitchen manager is precisely because of the power of Jia Baoyu and Jia Lian [Wang Xifeng]. If these two can't make it, he is afraid that this job will not last long.
"Well... "
Sun Shaozong can only solve cases but cannot cure diseases and save lives. How could he know whether Baoyu and Wang Xifeng would die?
Speaking of which...
The reason why Dream of the Red Chamber is a love tragedy is not because Baoyu suddenly died halfway through, right?
Sun Shaozong's mind was blown for a moment, but after careful consideration, he felt that the plot was extremely unreasonable - Baoyu was fourteen years old, Daiyu was thirteen years old, and Xue Baochai was only fifteen years old. At this age, what kind of shocking love tragedy could they create?
Even if the ancients matured early, this age is really ridiculous!
Considering this aspect alone, Baoyu and Wang Xifeng should be able to survive.
"It shouldn't be a big problem."
Thinking of this, Sun Shaozong said optimistically with some reservations: "After all, the poison gas they inhaled was much less than Chen Bo's. As long as Chen Bo can regain consciousness..."
"Who are you? You...you..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard a panicked voice from below: "Let me go, what...what are you going to do?!"
Sun Shaozong was startled at first, then he suddenly jumped up from the armchair and blurted out, "It's Chen Bo! He's awake!"
Apart from Chen Bo, there is probably no one else in this yard who would be so confused as to not know where he is!
Jia Yun was also overjoyed. He turned around and ran a few steps toward the stairs. Suddenly he woke up again and hurriedly turned back and said, "Uncle, let's go over and take a look!"
The cheers from below were deafening, and Sun Shaozong naturally could not stay upstairs any longer. He hurriedly led Jia Yun downstairs to the small courtyard next door.
As soon as one foot was in the door and the other out, the cheers suddenly fell silent, as silent as death!
Could it be...
Sun Shaozong's heart sank and he quickened his pace and rushed into the living room that served as a temporary experimental field.
After entering the room, I saw Chen Bo lying quietly on the bed, without any sound at all.
"grown ups."
Bao Yongmeng and several jailers came closer and reported quietly: "Chen Bo just woke up for a while, but he died soon after."
Damn~
He is dead indeed!
Although he had been mentally prepared, Sun Shaozong still couldn't help but sigh - this guy is really unlucky, he was poisoned for no reason, killed his own father inexplicably, and now he finally woke up, but he didn't even know where he was, and he died again.
but……
The biggest question at the moment is whether the treatment just now was a success or a failure?
When Sun Shaozong asked this question, the monsters in the room stared at each other. After a long while, someone said unconfidently, "It should...should have been successful, right?"
"Of course it worked!" The other one was much more confident than him, patting his chest and saying confidently: "My prescription is the most reliable, it will definitely work."
“Bullshit!”
Someone nearby immediately retorted, "It was your prescription that killed him. He was clearly having a last burst of energy, so he woke up on his own."
"No! He's going to die, all because you used that messed up recipe first!"
"Nonsense! It's obviously you..."
"Stop arguing. If it weren't for my Pure Heart and Universal Salvation Mantra, how could he have woken up?"
"How dare you take credit for the Bodhisattva's work?!"
"It's obvious that his soul has been scattered by your curse!"
"It's you..."
"I……"
Damn it~
This is truly the worst possible scenario!
Sun Shaozong was so overwhelmed by their quarrels that he almost lost his mind. Jia Zheng, Jia Lian and others who rushed over after hearing the news didn't know who to listen to.
But in the end, these witch doctors, monks and Taoists reached a consensus: that is, they still needed more guinea pigs to verify each other's right and wrong, wins and losses!
So that night, several death row prisoners quietly disappeared from the Ministry of Justice and the Shuntian Prefecture jail...
