Chapter 1257: Chapter 1252: Need the Sacrifice of One Person

Su Yingxue watched Shan Bao and Chu Heng leave, took a deep breath, her consciousness entered Medicine King Valley, and she grabbed Little Ginseng, her eyes gleaming as she said, “I believe in myself and I won’t always be afraid to compete with my mother, I will surely cure Xiao Yu!”

“That’s more like it!”

Little Ginseng crossed her arms, her plump, tender face puffing up as she nodded seriously.

Seeing her adorable appearance, Su Yingxue couldn’t help but want to pinch her, but each time she tried, Little Ginseng would particularly disdain it, saying, “Don’t treat this ginseng like your son, this ginseng is a ten-thousand-year-old baby!”

“That still makes you a baby!”

Su Yingxue just couldn’t resist and pinched her!

...

“Su Yingxue, don’t pinch this baby, don’t pinch the face! Don’t pinch the belly! Hey hey hey, stop it!”

Little Ginseng’s crisp voice was always audible to Chu Heng, his mind even conjured up an image of a tender little girl playing naughtily in a field of herbs.

Chu Heng thought this little girl was so cute, fierce yet adorable, but then, he couldn’t hear her voice anymore, it was intermittent.

Chu Heng, puzzled, touched his head and asked Shan Bao, “Shan Bao, did mother perhaps secretly have a sister and is hiding her?”

Shan Bao: “Roar!”

How would I know your human affairs?

You’re all a bunch of odd folks!

Zi Wei continued guarding the vicinity of Su Yingxue and Chu Yihan’s residence. Chu Yihan, always vigilant against anyone, naturally wouldn’t miss someone scouting him.

But Mo Qi returned to report, “Master, the man’s number at Silver Moon Pavilion is seventeen, he has no companions, his martial arts skills are exceedingly high, he acts independently, his nature is cold to the extreme, but he is extremely loyal.”

Chu Yihan nodded slightly, “Hmm, then there’s no need to guard against him.”

According to Su Yingxue, this man wanted to choose a good tree to perch upon, following Su Yingxue, serving as her guard.

They were in constant danger in Hangzhou City; having another expert to protect Su Yingxue and her child wouldn’t be a bad idea.

For now, the difficult part was Xiao Yu’s illness.

The people he had sent to the cliff base to find Su Miaoyan brought back not very promising news.

After much hesitation, Chu Yihan still went to see Su Yingxue at dusk to check on her situation.

Through research and contemplation, and using the gu worms preserved from the last time on rabbits for experiments, Su Yingxue finally devised a method: to transfer the gu worms inside Xiao Yu’s body to another living person, then operate on this individual to extract the worms.

Since Xiao Yu’s body couldn’t withstand any surgery, weak as a ragingly delicate straw that could die at any moment, and since the gu worms fed on living flesh, only a living being could endure the pain they caused.

She shared this method with Chu Yihan. Chu Yihan’s sleek brows furrowed slightly, “If it could save Xiao Yu, it’s not necessarily infeasible, even if the person absorbing the gu worms has to endure some pain, it wouldn’t harm their life.”

Su Yingxue nodded gravely, “I will do my utmost to treat him and minimize the harm, as long as someone is willing to extract the gu worms from Xiao Yu.”

Chu Yihan clasped her shoulders, “I will find this person, you needn’t worry.”

“You mustn’t use your own body as a gambling stake, you can’t have any accidents.” Su Yingxue instinctively thought of the time when the deadly plague reemerged and Chu Yihan tested the poison on himself, and her heart skipped a beat.

Chu Yihan pinched her nose, “At times like this, I would like to come personally, but the situation does not permit it.”

The dangers of Hangzhou City, the mysteries of the Xiao family, every single thing reminded him, he must always stay alert to protect those close to him.
