Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 254: Chapter 152 Antidote to Poison Chapter 254: Chapter 152 Antidote to Poison Gu Changsheng spent an unusually long time taking his pulse this time, his worry initially causing chaos in his heart and making it difficult to calm down. When he finally managed to quiet his mind, his complexion grew increasingly grave.

“I’m fine, don’t worry about me,” Zhou Mu said when he saw her frown growing tighter and couldn’t help but speak up to comfort her.

“You’re injured?” If it were merely a cold, the pulse wouldn’t be so floating and tight. An external pathogen has invaded and even harmed the internal organs.

There was only one possibility: he had suffered a very serious external injury, which had even damaged his internal organs and caused an old illness to recur!

Zhou Mu was slightly taken aback, then a bitter smile appeared on his face. Indeed, he couldn’t hide anything from her fiery eyes, “It’s just a small injury, don’t be nervous.”

But Gu Changsheng clearly didn’t think so. She knew all too well the unreachably proud self-esteem of this man.

When they first met, he had been so badly injured and yet had not made a single sound!

“Speak for yourself, or should I strip off your clothes and find out for myself?” Gu Changsheng’s expression was stern as she reached out her hand while speaking.

Zhou Mu felt the hand that was about to unscrupulously act upon his body. In the past, he could ignore it, treating it as non-existent. Now, obviously, he could no longer remain as indifferent. A hint of blush passed over his pale face, and Zhou Mu quickly caught the pair of offending hands, “It’s on the flank!”

He had no doubt that if he had waited a moment longer to speak up, this woman would have stripped him bare!

He didn’t mind showing himself honestly to her, but clearly, the time had not yet come.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng withdrew her hands and reached towards his flank.

Lifting the plain long robe gently, she carefully pulled away the simply bandaged white cloth and took only a glance before she sharply inhaled a breath of cold air.

A bone-deep gash stretched from the side of the waist all the way to the navel, flesh turned over and blurred in a messy swath…

Gu Changsheng’s nose suddenly felt a bit sour, and her hands continued their inspection as she shouted anxiously towards the outside of the door, “All the medicine that I prepared! Everything, bring me everything!”

There was a flurry of commotion outside, which soon returned to stillness.

“Han Qiu, Xiao Cui, come in!”

As Gu Changsheng’s voice fell, the two who were already anxiously waiting outside quickly pushed the door open and entered, and upon seeing the situation inside, they too were surprised and their mouths fell open.

“This injury…”

It was terrifying! Who could possibly have inflicted such harm on Prince Mu, a man whose martial arts were peerless?

The two exchanged a glance, and a look of worry simultaneously crossed their eyes.

“You know what to prepare, so get it for me immediately,” Gu Changsheng commanded nervously as she examined the wound.

Seeing this, Xiao Cui and Han Qiu immediately withdrew to prepare.

The door opened and closed, closed and then opened again. The three thousand Elite Guards of the Dark Camp were all present, with the four Commanders at the front, all watching the door with tense expressions.

The County Prince was ill!

But as for how severe his illness was, they had no idea…

Hot water, white cloth, and medicinal materials were continuously brought into the room.

Gu Changsheng, with tightly knit brows, treated the wound while filled with regret.

Last night, she had not noticed anything wrong with him. She had even embraced this waist and had let him go out in the rain…

Zhou Mu, who insisted on not taking the Powder for Anesthesia, remained conscious, sweating profusely, but did not utter a sound.

“Don’t worry, it’s just a minor injury.” He had sustained even more fatal wounds before; to him, this knife wound meant nothing.

Her hands moving without pause, Gu Changsheng’s forehead also slowly began to sweat, and she spoke with unprecedented seriousness, “Zhou Mu, it’s not about the injury itself. The external wound is just a causative factor. Judging by the wound, it must be at least two or three days old, and you didn’t treat it in time.”

After being injured, he still had hurried back!

Thinking about this, a dull pain throbbed in Gu Changsheng’s heart.

“The wound is infected, the external pathogen has invaded and triggered the residual poison in the body, damaging the internal organs. Zhou Mu, it’s not just the injury. I have seen Qianji Poison with Yhan Ting, and it is a deadly poison that can erode the nerves. Although my grandfather suppressed the toxicity and prevented it from reaching the brain, it is ultimately entrenched in the internal organs. Zhou Mu, trust me. Give me some time, and I am one hundred percent confident that I can develop an antidote to neutralize this nerve toxin. Trust me!” Gu Changsheng continued to speak while excising the rotting flesh around the wound.

“Alright, don’t rush, I’m back and won’t leave. We have plenty of time,” Zhou Mu nodded, his eyes brimming with affection.

Gu Changsheng nodded fiercely; if nothing else, his words at that moment brought her some peace of mind.

After treating the wound, Gu Changsheng was drenched in sweat.

The man lying there was the person she cared about the most, and no one knew how her nervousness and worry had almost made her lose grip on the scalpel.
