Shocking Venomous Consort: Frivolous Miss

Chapter 542: She Became a Pig’s Head

Ling Chuxi and the rest returned to Fu Chengyu’s residence after their meal, and Ling Chuxi started to teach the fifth princess some things.

“The key point in using poison is that you must be stealthy. If people notice that you have poisoned them, then no matter how amazing your poison is, it would be useless. You have to do it like I did earlier, in a way where no one notices,” explained Ling Chuxi to the fifth princess while giving her a demonstration in the courtyard.

The Golden Pill Sect’s Qiu family’s stream of medical skills were not comparable to that of the other two streams, but when it came to poisons, they were far ahead. The potency of their poison was not great, but the method they used to poison was odd, peculiar and hard to defend against.

“Master, have you done the poisoning already? Why didn’t I notice?” asked the fifth princess in confusion as she dragged her chin over and looked at Ling Chuxi with great concentration. She was not too interested in martial arts techniques and medical skills, but she was extremely devoted to the art of poisoning, so she was abnormally excited to learn this skill.

From the side, Luo Li and Fu Chengyu took a look at the fifth princess and then quickly turned their heads away. It was easy to tell that they were trying very hard to hold in their laughter to the point where they were suffering.

“Take a look yourself,” said Ling Chuxi as she passed the fifth princess a mirror.

“Ah! My face! My face!” The little courtyard was filled with the miserable shrieks of the fifth princess. Her originally beautiful face had swelled up into the size of a pig’s head at some point in time. Both of the hands she used to prop up her chin were actually hidden from view by the swelling of her head.

“Being poisoned till your head has swollen into the size of a pig’s head and yet you still did not notice. You’re also lucky that it was me who poisoned you. If it were someone else, you would have long since died a hundred times over,” said Ling Chuxi bluntly.

“Master, help me, help me. How am I to meet people like this? If Zhuoyi sees me, he will definitely laugh at me till I die,” pleaded the fifth princess as she held up a mirror and pounced on Ling Chuxi to hug her thigh in a pleading manner.

Ling Chuxi was very speechless. Even though she had been poisoned, the fifth princess was not bothered about the event of her life or death and was only worried about how she was going to be perceived by people and about being laughed at. The fifth princess’ train of thought was truly unique.

“There are two ways to remedy the poison. One is to take an antidote pill. The poison formula is here. If you want to remedy it, research the pill formula on your own and refine an antidote pill for yourself. The other way is to use gold needles to sooth your meridians and force out the poison,” drawled Ling Chuxi as she handed over the formula of the poison to the fifth princess.

“Master, then quickly help me. Use gold needles to sooth my meridians,” cried the fifth princess as she hugged Ling Chuxi’s thigh and bawled with snot and tears running down her swollen face. If she were to research out the formula of the antidote to refine it herself, she didn’t even know by when she would be able to succeed at it. Using gold needles to sooth her meridians was the fastest way to rid herself of the poison.

“Use them yourself. Didn’t I teach you the needle application methods before?” instructed Ling Chuxi.

“But I can’t see,” wailed the fifth princess aggrievedly.

“Then, isn’t there a mirror you can use?” asked Ling Chuxi as she rolled her eyes at her.

“But I’m scared,” replied the fifth princess honestly. In the past when she had poisoned other people, no matter how bad it became, she would not feel fearful. But if her own body was the one poisoned, it was a totally different matter altogether.

“Then I have no other way out for you either. Either you carry this pig head with you wherever you go, or you take action on your own,” said Ling Chuxi, not being the least bit soft hearted.

“All right then...” The fifth princess hesitated a couple of times before gritting her teeth and taking out a single gold needle. Facing the mirror, she shakily stabbed it into her own face.

Luo Li and Fu Chengyu turned their heads away at the same time, unwilling to continue watching any longer. It was well deserved that the fifth princess was unlucky, since she insisted on following after Ling Chuxi and learning nothing from her other than the use of poisons. Was it not a form of self-abuse?

After pouring great effort into it, the fifth princess finally managed to force out the toxins from her face. Seeing her fair and beautiful face in the mirror once more, the fifth princess was so emotional that hot tears filled the rims of her eyes.

“All right, Master. I am really all right now. I also know how to use the Golden Needles Soothing Meridians application method already,” called out the fifth princess in delight like a madman.

“You’re all right already? Then let’s continue,” replied Ling Chuxi.

Hearing Ling Chuxi’s words, the smile on the fifth princess’ face fell and her chair scooted back a foot away.
