C2648 Poison Removal
"You don't have to worry, it will be very soon."
Bai Wuchen stared at the girl's small face, his eyes slightly darkened. After a moment, he suddenly used a silver needle to prick his index finger. Immediately after, a drop of blood came out, and he dripped it on the girl's wrist.
Chu Xi looked at Bai Wuchen in surprise, then looked at the girl's wrist. Her fair skin suddenly bulged out like a bean, and the blood was absorbed into her skin.
"This … What is going on?" The First Prince asked in shock.
Bai Wuchen said, "Your Highness, the princess has indeed been poisoned."
"It really is a poison! Then how can we get it out?"
"This is not an ordinary poisonous insect. We can't take it by force, otherwise it will immediately release a deadly poison and choose to perish together with the host. We can only think of a way to lure it out."
"Does Mr. Bai have a way?"
"Yes, but …"
"But what? If Mr. Bai has any request, just tell me."
"This kind of poisonous insect won't easily come out of the human body unless it finds a more suitable host. Otherwise, it won't be able to lure it out."
"A more suitable host." Chu Xi said, "Master, you mean that we have to find another person to lure out the poisonous insect in the princess's body?"
Bai Wuchen said, "That's right, and this person has to like the insect."
"Then how can we know whether the insect likes it or not?" Chu Xi asked.
"Yeah." The prince said, "Mr. Bai, how can I find the person that the Gu Insect likes?"
"This kind of Gu Insect is very strange. It doesn't have a specific preference, so I can only try it again and again."
"What! Isn't that like finding a needle in a haystack?!" The prince looked at the girl with a pained heart. He staggered backwards, and then asked again, "Is there no other way?"
After a moment, Bai Wuchen said lightly, "There is. It likes my blood."
"This..." The prince looked at him. "This won't do. I can't sacrifice Mr. Bai for my daughter."
"Master, is there no other way?" Chu Xi asked.
Bai Wuchen said, "This is the fastest way."
"But what about you, Master?"
After thinking for a moment, Bai Wuchen said again, "I am immune to all poisons. Even if it enters my body, I have a way to fight it. I won't fall asleep like the princess."
"Will it hurt you?" Chu Xi asked worriedly.
"It will, but it won't be a big deal."
"What should we do after that? Let the Gu Insect stay in Master's body?"
"No, I won't let it live. Its poison won't be fatal to me."
"Mr. Bai... Are you sure?" The prince asked.
Bai Wuchen replied with certainty, "I'm sure. The princess is too young, and she can't take it anymore. We must lure the Gu Insect out as soon as possible. This is the fastest and most effective way."
"Mr. Bai, I will never forget your great kindness. In the future, if you need anything from the Thousand Evil Alliance, I will do my best to help you."
"Your Highness, please take everyone out of the room. There should not be too many people in the room."
"Alright, I'll take them out now."
"Master, I..." Chu Xi wanted to stay.
Bai Wuchen immediately said, "Xi, stay and help me."
"Alright."
"Also, Prince, Xi, don't tell anyone about this, especially... Baili Yi."
Chu Xi nodded, "Yes, I know."
The prince suddenly bent down and said gratefully, "Mr. Bai, thank you."
The prince and his subordinates left.
Chu Xi was still worried, "Master, are you really alright? What should I do?"
"Don't worry, I will be fine." Bai Wuchen took out a bottle from his bag and handed it to her, "After the poisonous insects enter my body, I might be weaker and weaker. Feed this medicine to the little princess."
"Alright." Chu Xi immediately took the small bottle.
Bai Wuchen sat by the bedside and took out a dagger to cut his finger. Then, he pressed his finger on the girl's wrist. Moments later, the girl's wrist once again bulged out and quickly moved to where Bai Wuchen's finger was pressing.
Bai Wuchen suddenly let out a muffled groan, and his face turned pale.
"Master!"
"I'm fine, quickly feed the princess the medicine." Bai Wuchen's voice was incomparably weak.
Chu Xi did not dare to delay any longer and immediately fed the medicine to the little girl.
After a while, the girl's eyelids moved and she slowly opened her eyes.
Bai Wuchen's voice was weak: "Call the prince in. The little princess has woken up."
Chu Xi called the prince in. The prince rushed into the room and looked at his daughter.
The girl blinked and called out in a low voice: "Daddy."
"Baby, you're awake. You finally woke up. You scared daddy to death." The man knelt on one knee by his daughter's bed and said with remorse: "It's all daddy's fault. I didn't protect you well."
The girl reached out her hand and touched her father's cheek, and asked in confusion: "Daddy, what's wrong with you?"
"Daddy is fine." After saying that, the eldest prince looked at Bai Wuchen. Seeing that his face was pale, he immediately said: "Mr. Bai, how are you? Your face is very pale. What do you need me to do?"
Bai Wuchen stood up: "No need, I'll just go back and take some medicine."
Chu Xi immediately supported him: "Master, be careful."
Bai Wuchen smiled weakly, "I'm fine."
