My Pretty Campus Queen

Chapter 1190: Chapter 1190: Analyzing the Condition

"Doctor, what’s wrong with this young lady? Is she poisoned?" Pure Yang Daoist looked at the doctor and shook his head, feeling that the situation seemed a bit complicated.

"Sect Leader, the poison this girl has, forgive my ignorance, I’ve never seen it, and I’ve just checked the food, everything seems normal, nothing unusual."

The doctor was also a bit frustrated, but the girl was indeed poisoned, and it seemed to be a very strong poison.

"Ah? Dr. Hong, even you don’t know what’s poisoning her?"

Pure Yang Daoist was clearly surprised. This Hong Hao was the most famous doctor in the Celestial Pill Sect, almost considered a Divine Doctor. If even he doesn’t know, then what’s left to do?

Although Chen Tianlong was anxious, he needed to find the source of the poison and then prescribe the right remedy, otherwise, even if Tan Tian were here, there would be no solution. So he walked to the dining table, casually picked up a pair of chopsticks, and turned over the greens they had eaten.

However, as Chen Tianlong looked through the food, he thought, if it were a common poison, then Hua Xiang and even the people here who ate together would be poisoned too, so why was only Wu Mengting poisoned?

Chen Tianlong was puzzled, could someone have targeted her specifically, knowing what she would eat or tampered with her dish in the kitchen?

Suddenly, Chen Tianlong recalled a long time ago when the young lady Lin Wushuang was poisoned by a combination dish. Could history be repeating itself?

With this thought, Chen Tianlong immediately pulled out the dish from Wu Mengting’s bowl: "Doctor, please verify if there’s poison in it."

The doctor took out a Poison Testing Silver Needle, pricked it around in the dish, but found not a trace of toxicity. He shook his head and said, "Chen Tianlong, this dish has no poison."

"No toxicity?"

Chen Tianlong was stunned, then there was only one possibility left, that the poison was targeted specifically, meaning different ingredients put together could produce toxicity?

Chen Tianlong quickly checked, only to find them to be very common vegetables, with no concept of food incompatibility. At this point, Wu Mengting suddenly regained consciousness and then started coughing violently, "pfft" spitting out a mouthful of blood, before passing out again. freewebnøvel.com

"Bad, the poisonous blood is attacking the heart, if we don’t find the antidote or detoxify her within half an hour, this girl will surely die." Dr. Hong frowned and hurriedly said.

"So, Dr. Hong, is there really no way?" Pure Yang Daoist knew that Qiukui was introduced by Master Void from the Shaolin Temple. If something happened at the Celestial Pill Sect, there would be no way to explain, so he couldn’t help but be very nervous.

"Sect Leader, I am helpless too, I’ve practiced medicine for decades, but have never encountered such a strange poison, I am powerless." Dr. Hong had basically sentenced Wu Mengting to death.

Chen Tianlong was still rolling the chopsticks through the food, suddenly he saw a blackish piece inside, upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a rare ingredient.

His intuition told him this was the breakthrough point.

Poisonous Astragalus.

This herb was something he recognized from Tan Tian’s pharmacy, and judging by the color, it was basically it. However, medical books state that direct use of Poisonous Astragalus is non-toxic; it requires another ingredient.

So Chen Tianlong continued searching in other dishes.

At this moment, Pure Yang Daoist and Dr. Hong were puzzled by his actions.

"Brother Chen Tianlong, what are you doing?" Pure Yang Daoist asked, a bit confused.

"Returning to the Sect Leader, I seem to have found something, let me gather them and then I’ll tell you." Chen Tianlong did not waste much time as he could afford to wait, but Wu Mengting could not.

"Oh? That’s impossible, clearly there’s no toxicity, where’s the suspicion coming from? I still think we should prepare for this young lady’s aftermath." Dr. Hong didn’t believe it, could a youngster identifying a blackish piece prove it’s the source of poison?

"Hehe."

Chen Tianlong didn’t say more, firstly to avoid wasting time and missing out on Wu Mengting’s rescue, and secondly because he didn’t have ample evidence to convince others.

Suddenly, Chen Tianlong found a mushroom-like piece in another dish, picked it up for a sniff and a closer look, it was actually Reishi, a Bitter Reishi.

Following this, he found another ingredient from a third dish, a cylindrical root with bud scars on the surface, at first glance it was licorice.

Life-taking Licorice.

This is a kind of toxic herb from the Western Regions, when used alone has little effect, from the appearance it looks like ordinary licorice and can be used in some dish ingredients.

But what happens when Life-taking Licorice, Bitter Reishi, and Poisonous Astragalus mix together?

Chen Tianlong thought, immediately placed the three ingredients into an empty bowl, then slightly applied force with his palm above them, turning them all into powder.

Chen Tianlong poured a little water into it, mixed it slightly, then picked up Dr. Hong’s Poison Testing Silver Needle, stirred it around the bowl, and the needle immediately turned incredibly black.

"Whoa..."

A burst of commotion erupted from the crowd as they realized the poison had been verified.

And beside him, Dr. Hong and Pure Yang Daoist quickly stepped forward, picked up the needle to examine it, they were stunned.

"Chen Tianlong, truly impressive, old man I am impressed, so the poison was laid so skillfully. May I ask Chen Tianlong, what were the ingredients mixed just now?" Dr. Hong suddenly asked, wanting to know what kind of poison this was.

Actually, Chen Tianlong had identified the poison but didn’t know its name, so now with Dr. Hong asking, he too wanted to know what exactly this poison was.

"Life-taking Licorice, Bitter Reishi, Poisonous Astragalus, just these three ingredients combined." Chen Tianlong directly revealed.

"Huh? Are you sure it’s these three ingredients?"

Dr. Hong was very surprised, firstly because Chen Tianlong actually knew these three ingredients, let alone a young person, even he, an old doctor, would take a long time to identify them, but just now it seemed only a few minutes, he could recognize them so quickly, isn’t this a sign of a Divine Doctor?

Secondly, these three ingredients are rare strange medicines in the Central Plains, if they really are, then it’s bad, because this poison is one of the fiercest three poisons of the past, Life-taking Bone-Eroding Powder.

Once this poison enters the human body, within minutes it will take over all the bones, rendering a person extremely weak, achieving lethality through the destruction of bone marrow. frёewebnoѵēl.com

Most poisons seep into the bone marrow gradually from the exterior, but this one is directly lethal, penetrating into the bone marrow. Therefore, it was once hailed as the top of the three deadly poisons.

The person who laid this poison must be either extremely malicious or ignorant.

Speaking of which, this time the person who laid the poison was truly ignorant, although also malicious, but his intent was to divert others’ attention, to seize the opportunity to steal the Trial Takers’ pills.
