My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 302: Corpse Poison

Qin Feng had a few people stay at the door while he went forward to investigate.

Even with his extensive knowledge of medical books and various plagues, he had never seen such horrifying symptoms before.

He worried about the safety of the few people outside.

This time, surprisingly, Si Zheng and the others did not refuse, except for one person.

Cang Feilan followed closely behind Qin Feng, never leaving his side.

Qin Feng turned around and advised, “Miss Cang, I cultivate the Literature Saint Dao Lineage, with Righteous Qi protecting me, I am immune to all poisons. But it’s different for you; you cultivate the Hundred Ghosts Dao and are not skilled in dealing with these things. For safety, it’s better to stay away.”

Cang Feilan glanced lightly and did not respond.

Qin Feng sighed helplessly; the strong-willed Miss Cang never listened to advice. However, he was touched because he knew she was worried about any unexpected situations.

“Give me your hand.” Qin Feng said with a tone that brooked no refusal.

“Why?” Cang Feilan frowned.

Without a word, Qin Feng stepped forward, directly grabbing her left hand, which was smooth and delicate to the touch.

Cang Feilan’s light blue eyes widened, a hint of blush creeping up her ears. This sudden action caught her off guard.

She felt a trace of joy in her heart, but her nature compelled her to try to pull away her left hand.

At this moment, a breath emanated from her left hand, and a faint purple energy enveloped her whole body.

“Don’t move. Hold onto me. I’ll use Righteous Qi to protect you, which can prevent the plague from invading you.” Qin Feng explained.

“Okay.” A light response came from under the black veil. Cang Feilan’s light blue eyes revealed a hint of tenderness.

At the entrance, Amu asked curiously, “Physician Qin and this lady seem to have an unusual relationship?”

Si Zheng, who usually frequented the brothels, sighed, “This is just the first step. When the barrier is broken, that’s when the relationship becomes unusual.”

Amu and Zhang Tiannan looked at each other simultaneously; they felt something was off about these words, but they had no evidence.

Qin Feng held Cang Feilan and approached the people infected by the plague. While transmitting the Righteous Qi to the latter, he also did not forget to protect himself with it.

Activating his dual-pupil ability, he looked at the people writhing in pain on the ground.

He saw that half of the blood flowing in everyone had turned black!

This was completely different from the plagues Qin Feng had seen in books; it looked more like the corpse poison he had read about.

He carefully observed each infected person, and his thoughts about corpse poison became firmer.

After a long time, Qin Feng walked back to the entrance with a heavy expression.

Si Zheng asked, “Kid, how is it? Are you confident?”

Amu looked anxious, “Physician Qin, can this plague be cured?”

Qin Feng did not answer but instead looked at Amu and said, “Are you hiding something from us?”

As soon as these words were spoken, Si Zheng and the others all turned their gaze towards Amu.

“Physician Qin, what do you mean by that?” Amu looked confused.

Qin Feng stared for a moment but didn’t see anything unusual in the other’s expression.

Either this person was unaware, or he was an expert at disguising himself.

He chose not to conceal the truth of the epidemic and said, “The people infected are not suffering from a plague but a corpse poison.”

“What? Corpse poison!” Everyone showed a shocked expression.

Qin Feng kept observing Amu’s expression, which was no different from others.

Could it be that he really knew nothing? Qin Feng frowned slightly and then spoke again, “In places where corpse poison appears, there’s a high probability that there are corpse demons causing trouble.”

In the “Records of Great Qian’s Hundred Monsters,” it is recorded that corpse demons are formed when corpses are contaminated with resentment and yin energy, and their strength is related to their strength during their lifetime.

The aura they emit can infect ordinary people with corpse poison, and if someone is injured by a corpse demon, they are likely to be assimilated.

At this point, Si Zheng and the others understood why Qin Feng felt that Amu was hiding something.

As a member of the Demon Slaying Department in Shuliang City, he would definitely be aware if there were corpse demons causing trouble in the city.

Feeling the gaze of everyone, Amu’s face turned ugly, and he said immediately, “Master Qin, could you be mistaken? If there were corpse demons in Shuliang City, I couldn’t possibly be unaware.”

“Moreover, if it’s a disaster caused by corpse demons, according to the regulations of the Great Qian Demon Slaying Department, it is at least a Grade B-level incident. We must seek help from higher authorities and cannot conceal it; otherwise, it’s a grave crime that leads to imprisonment in the Ninefold Prison.”

Due to the unique infectious nature of corpse demons, the harm they cause is immeasurable if not stopped in time.

Several decades ago, a corpse king appeared in the northern region of Great Qian. Initially, it had the strength of only a fifth-level calamity cycle, but as the corpse poison spread and more corpse demons assimilated, the corpse king’s strength became more formidable.

It was only when the northern Demon Slaying Department, along with many Thirty-Six Stars and two divine generals, took action that they were able to completely eradicate the impact caused by the corpse king.

However, the price was the loss of vitality in the surrounding area, and numerous colleagues in the Demon Slaying Department died or were injured, including two Thirty-Six Stars and a divine general!

It was from that time onwards that the Great Qian Demon Slaying Department started to take the matter of corpse demons particularly seriously.

Amu’s expression changed several times, “Master Qin, are you sure that these people are infected with corpse poison and not some strange plague resembling corpse poison?”

Qin Feng replied, “Although I cannot confirm it, it’s almost certain.”

“Once I brew some medicinal soup for them to take, we should see results.”

Corpse poison is an extremely Yin substance in the world, and to eliminate it, one must use medicinal herbs with Yang properties for treatment.

However, Qin Feng wasn’t entirely confident.

The severity of the corpse poison is closely related to the strength of the corpse demon itself. If the corpse demon is not strong, Qin Feng is confident in removing the poison.

But if the corpse demon is formidable, he can, at best, suppress the further spread of the poison.

Taking out various Yang herbs from the storage ring, Qin Feng began brewing the medicinal soup.

After about half an hour, the medicinal soup was successfully brewed, and a strong medicinal fragrance filled the air along with white vapor.

Qin Feng filled a bowl of the medicinal soup and approached the nearest person. Squatting down, he administered the soup to the individual.

After the infected man struggled to finish the medicinal soup, his body convulsed violently, clearly enduring immense pain.

Qin Feng furrowed his brows, and his X-ray eyes were constantly observing the changes within the man’s body.

Corpse poison infects the flesh and blood of the human body, and the process of removal is akin to giving a person a new set of blood, inevitably causing pain.

After a while, the infected man’s struggles noticeably diminished.

Moreover, to the astonishment of the onlookers, the man’s skin, resembling black charcoal, slowly returned to a normal human color. Even the shriveled flesh and blood began to replenish.

“Ugh!”

The man abruptly sat up, spitting out a mouthful of black blood. Finally, his appearance returned to human form.

The black blood that fell to the ground emitted a pungent odor.

In less than a moment, those black blood turned dark green in front of everyone’s eyes, then dispersed and evaporated.

Qin Feng, witnessing this scene, had an unpleasant expression. He sighed lightly and said solemnly, “Confirmed, it’s undoubtedly corpse poison.”

Si Zheng and others had a heavy look on their faces.

When Amu heard this, his face turned pale with fright.
