Chapter 194: Volume 1, Chapter 194: Why Would the Ghost Hand Suddenly Malfunction?

For a moment, Yun Qiyue was stunned and unable to move.

Not until she felt that the person in her arms was truly not moving did she finally realize something was wrong.

As she prepared to help him up, her hand suddenly touched something sticky.

It was blood!

Yun Qiyue suddenly thought of that hidden arrow flying toward her.

Could it be because of her?

Yun Qiyue quickly helped Ye Lanjue lean against the carriage stool, looking at the blood-stained sleeve, her brows furrowed; she couldn't describe the feeling.

If someone as powerful as the Imperial Uncle hadn't been protecting her, would he have been injured?

Thinking this, Yun Qiyue tore open Ye Lanjue's sleeve.

Only after tearing open the dark sleeve did Yun Qiyue see that the shallow abrasion wound was tainted with black.

It was poison!

Her heart skipped a beat, and Yun Qiyue reached out to use the Ghost Hand.

But when the Ghost Hand touched Ye Lanjue, the information received in her mind was completely blank.

Yun Qiyue was stunned, unable to understand what was going on.

Why would the Ghost Hand suddenly malfunction?

Yes, malfunction.

Because even for a perfectly healthy person, once the Ghost Hand touched them, as long as she focused, her mind would receive a health report about that person; it was absolutely impossible for it to be blank.

She had never encountered this situation before.

There was only one possibility: her Ghost Hand had temporarily lost its function.

Yun Qiyue subconsciously looked at her own wound, furrowing her brows slightly; could it be because this hand was injured?

Although she had many doubts in her heart, Yun Qiyue didn't dwell on them and waste time; instead, she used her good hand to start taking Ye Lanjue's pulse.

As a medical practitioner, how could she not know how to take a pulse normally? She just usually liked to use the Ghost Hand to be lazy.

After taking the pulse, Yun Qiyue furrowed her brows.

Life-Snatching Powder.

How much did the other party want her dead... no, it shouldn't be that they wanted her dead.

At first, these people were targeting Ye Lanjue, and what they wanted was Ye Lanjue's life; it was just unclear why they finally aimed their target at her.

And Life-Snatching Powder, as the name suggests, is meant to snatch a person's life.

It belongs to the category of deadly poisons and is fatal very quickly.

But logically speaking, after Life-Snatching Powder is used, the person should die within about the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn.

But clearly, from just now until now, it had definitely been longer than the time for a stick of incense.

After thinking it over, Yun Qiyue felt that perhaps it was because Ye Lanjue's physical constitution was too good, allowing him to hold on until now.

And with her here, it was absolutely impossible for anything to happen to Ye Lanjue.

"System, I need a few medicinal herbs..."

She needed to prepare the antidote for Life-Snatching Powder herself.

The medicinal herbs needed to prepare the antidote were quite complex, and there were a few that she didn't have in stock in her space, so she could only exchange for them from the system.

Fortunately, the price of non-finished medicine wasn't high, otherwise the points she had earned before would likely have been wiped out again.

Although her relationship with Ye Lanjue was much more harmonious now and she didn't need points to save her life, points were always good to have, and having sufficient points gave her a sense of security.

Yun Qiyue fiddled around for a while, then first applied the medicinal dregs of the antidote to Ye Lanjue's wound, and then fed him the antidote.

After feeding him the antidote, Yun Qiyue still had to apply needles to expel the poison... in short, the process was very troublesome.

Yet despite this, Yun Qiyue did not alert the people outside.

Not until the poisonous blood was completely cleared did Yun Qiyue finally start to clean and apply medicine to Ye Lanjue's wound.

Because Ye Lanjue's wound was not a very deep one, just a surface abrasion, Yun Qiyue didn't use the biological glue, but a new type of medicine that healed quite quickly, the kind currently sold by the Ghost Doctor Pavilion.

After everything was handled, Ye Lanjue didn't wake up immediately, and Yun Qiyue also felt a hint of fatigue.

Just as she wanted to lean against the edge of the carriage to rest, Yun Qiyue's gaze, as if by magic, fell on Ye Lanjue's mask.

Then, Yun Qiyue's eyes were filled with restless light dancing.

What would happen if she took off his mask now while Ye Lanjue was still in a deep sleep?

She hadn't forgotten the task the system had set: take off Ye Lanjue's mask, and she could get a super operating room.

And at this moment, not only was the super operating room attracting her, but she was also full of curiosity about Ye Lanjue's true face.

Her sinful hand slowly reached toward Ye Lanjue's mask.

Closer, even closer.

Just a little further, and she would be able to touch Ye Lanjue's mask and see his true face.

At this very moment, Yun Qiyue herself didn't know whether she was more looking forward to seeing Ye Lanjue's true face or getting the super operating room.

Hold her breath, focus her mind.

Yun Qiyue felt she had never been this nervous before.

Her hands were shaking.

Finally, Yun Qiyue's hand touched Ye Lanjue's mask.

The touch was cold yet very comfortable, just like the half-mask on her own face.

Her hand subconsciously stroked the mandala flower on the mask.

This flower was beautiful and bewitching, yet carried toxicity; she didn't know when it started, but this flower had deeply attracted her.

Gradually, Yun Qiyue's hand fell to the edge of the mask.

But in the end, when she was about to lift the mask, Yun Qiyue paused and pulled her hand back.

After pulling her hand back, Yun Qiyue was dazed for a moment.

In the end, Yun Qiyue lay down on the carriage floor and closed her eyes to sleep.

At this time, Yun Qiyue didn't notice that Ye Lanjue's eyes slowly opened.

Ye Lanjue's hand gently fell on the mandala on his own mask, and the corners of his lips curled into a slight arc.

In fact, that hidden arrow had no possibility of injuring him, but at the moment he could have dodged it, he let it injure him.

It was unclear why, but...

Ye Lanjue's gaze fell on Yun Qiyue's face, his eyes gradually softening.

Then he slowly closed his eyes.

When Yun Qiyue woke up, she was in a bed.

Sunlight was even shining on her face through the window lattice.

For a moment, she was confused, and then Yun Qiyue felt something was wrong.

There was someone beside her!

Turning her head abruptly, Yun Qiyue saw Ye Lanjue sleeping beside her, and his face was very close to hers... most importantly, her leg was actually draped over Ye Lanjue.

At this moment, only a few questions were in Yun Qiyue's mind.

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I doing?

Since when had her alertness become so poor?

From a carriage in the wilderness to an unknown bed, with someone sleeping beside her, she hadn't even realized it.

Taking a deep breath, Yun Qiyue finally regained her composure.

Then, carefully lifting her leg, she prepared to detach herself from Ye Lanjue.

Just as she was about to succeed, before Yun Qiyue could even breathe a sigh of relief, she met a pair of deep eyes.
