Chapter 1274: Smoke and Fire Rising

, he said softly, "Don't worry, this king won't let the soldiers run out of food, nor will he let them run out of medicine.""My lord, it's time for us to depart."Ye Xi shouted outside. Feng Lingxi ner...Dugu Cheng's words successfully stopped the village head's doubts. Watching Feng Lingxi administer the acupuncture, the village head wanted to speak several times, but he was stopped by Sancai beside him.

Xiao Li worked beside Feng Lingxi, watching the princess's skilled hands. After about a stick of incense, Feng Lingxi stood up and looked at the village head.

They were poisoned.

"Poisoned"

The village chief was shocked and hurried forward to check on Liu Da's two sons, questioning Feng Lingxi with a puzzled expression, "Are you sure they were poisoned"

"Wasn't it just said that he was bitten by a dog, how did he suddenly become poisoned"

"A dog that bites carries venom, what will you do with that dog Won't you all eat it"

The village head nodded, feeling a queasy sensation in his stomach when he heard Feng Lingxi say it was poisonous.

"I just took one bite, my wife didn't let me eat anymore."

"Go to the village and find out how many people have eaten dog meat. Gather them all together, and I'll be there soon."

Wind Ling Xi instructed, the village head responded and immediately went to take care of it.

"Madam, can these two be saved"

Feng Lingxi's expression was grave as she crouched down to check them again. Though she didn't want to admit it, she had indeed arrived too late.

"Xi'er, is there really no chance"

Dugu City looked at the two people on the ground, this poison had no way to be resolved

Feng Ling xi shook her head, "The poison has already invaded their five internal organs and six fu organs. They have all lost consciousness now. When the toxin reaches the brain, it will be too late."

Feng Lingxi's words caused a shiver to run down everyone's spines. Sancai hastily asked, "They were just bitten by dogs, how could it be so serious"

"If it were just an ordinary dog, there might still be hope. The crucial point is that this dog was inherently poisonous from the start. Sancai, tell me, how many people have eaten this dog"

"I don't know, anyway I didn't get any. My family is poor and I'm an orphan. No one in this village shares good food with me. Liu Da has a good relationship with the village head, but I doubt many people would eat this dog meat. Besides, Liu Da isn't generous."

Sancai was truly lucky he didn't eat, otherwise he would have been really unlucky.

It's still more reliable to eat things from the ground.

"By the way, there really wasn't a dog in our village. I remember that dog was brought by their daughter-in-law, a very beautiful white one. After those daughters-in-law left, the dog was slaughtered. The village head told us not to talk about it, saying it would be embarrassing."

It seems like they did it on purpose.

Feng Lingxi looked at Dugu Cheng, her eyes full of helplessness. She walked to the water basin nearby and scooped a ladle of water to wash her hands, watching the two people on the ground.

After they die, they cannot be buried, only cremated. Otherwise, their bodies would be contagious.

When Sancai heard Feng Lingxi's words, she hurried to wash her hands and wipe her body, swallowing nervously.

Are they dead now

Feng Lingxi shook her head, "Not yet, I should have a few more days left."

Dugu Cheng looked at Feng Lingxi, "Shall we kill them to eliminate the threat" It was contagious, indeed too dangerous.

"Let them handle it themselves. We'll go check on the others. There are a dozen or so people in the village infected, we need to see if they can be saved."

"What are they going to do"

Ye Xi looked at the two people lying on the ground. Feng Ling Xi waved her hand, and Ye Xi quickly followed suit. This way of lying down was better than being a nuisance to others.

When the village head heard Feng Lingxi say that the dog meat was problematic, he immediately emptied the remaining dog meat in his bowl at home. The village head's wife saw this and angrily cursed him out.

"You're sick! There's only this much meat in the house, and you poured it out."

"It can't be eaten, it would kill people. Luckily I haven't eaten it yet, if I had, I would have died."

The village head's wife was instantly dumbfounded, staring at her husband's terrified eyes.

"Is what you're saying true Can it really kill people"

The village head nodded, “What else can I fool you with Didn’t you eat”

"I..."

The village chief's wife panicked. She had secretly eaten it, and the village chief glared at her, pointing a finger and berating her, "How could you eat this We agreed to save it for the children..."

The child didn't eat.

The village head's wife looked at him, "The child wouldn't eat, so I ate it. Will I die" The village head's wife grabbed the village head's arm, frightened to tears, "I only ate one piece, I really only ate one piece of meat."

Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng went to the village head's house and saw the couple arguing, so they walked towards them.

"Village head."

The village head saw Feng Lingxi and them coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to plead, "Madam, can you please save my lowly servant She stole a piece of dog meat, but she hasn't gone mad."

Feng Lingxi looked at the village head's wife, seeing her rush forward and extend her hand. Ye Xi drew his sword and blocked her way, causing the village head's wife to take two steps back in fright. Feng Lingxi kept a safe distance.

“Save me, my lady.”

"Really only ate one piece of dog meat"

The village head's wife nodded, her flustered eyes making Feng Lingxi frown slightly, "Extend your hand."

Looking at the village head wife's outstretched hand, Feng Lingxi looked at her normal-colored fingernails and felt her pulse, her brows furrowing slightly.

"Congratulations to the village chief and his wife, you're going to be parents again."

This pulse diagnosis indicated a pregnancy. Feng Lingxi truly didn't expect this, looking at the two people's stunned expressions, Feng Lingxi nodded, "It's true, there's already a heartbeat."

"Madam, is there poison in my humble servant"

Feng Lingxi shook her head, looking at the village head's wife, "It's just that her body is a bit unwell, she needs to be properly taken care of."

The village head let out a sigh of relief, but soon felt something was amiss.

"She ate dog meat, so how come she's fine Did the mistress make a mistake in her check Could it be that the dog meat is alright"

"No, it was her child who saved her."

Feng Lingxi didn't know how to explain it to them, but that was indeed the case.

"I'm fine, that's great."

The village head's wife patted her chest and let out a sigh of relief.

"The village head, those women have come back again."

Feng Lingxi and Dugu City looked at each other, then at the village head.

"Headman, don't let them know we're here. We'll try to catch them and see if we can help you find a cure."

Feng Lingxi reminded him, the village head believed Feng Lingxi's words without a doubt, and since she had helped him, Feng Lingxi and Dugu Cheng went into the house to hide. The village head's wife also came to help.

Several women dressed in flamboyant attire entered the village. They were the same women who had left the village a few days ago. Upon returning to the village and observing its state, their eyes were filled with coldness. The village head watched them return, feeling anxiety in his heart.

"Why are you all back here You're already gone."

"Headman, since we have come back, naturally we want to reclaim the benefits we received while being your daughters-in-law here."

What do you want to do

The village chief looked at them in alarm. Seeing them walk into the yard, he hurriedly protected the children in front of him, his eyes full of terror.

“Headman, our master has sent us to tell you, if you still refuse to speak this time, your village won’t just be a dozen or so people driven mad. There are over a hundred people in this village. You won't let them all bury with you, will you”atched as Wan'er instantly switched sides, her brows furrowed. She wanted to speak but couldn't get a word in."Your second uncle will tell you about the Lu family's business. In the future, when Wan'e...
