The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion

Chapter 257

Upon hearing the name of the rainbow frog, He Zhiran suddenly felt it was not so unfamiliar.

She discovered that after her sisters-in-law were poisoned, in the book on ancient and modern poisons that she had casually browsed through when purchasing it, it was recorded that mixing the blood of the rainbow frog with other medicinal ingredients could make sleeping potions, as well as high quality love potions.

The rainbow frog liked damp, gloomy environments, and its food had to be poisonous animals, such as poisonous snakes and scorpions.

One could imagine that the aggressiveness of the rainbow frog was also very strong, since it could eat poisonous snakes and scorpions.

It seemed that these rainbow frogs really were treasures.

He Zhiran suddenly had the urge to take possession of these rainbow frogs. She didn't care if she could raise them, as long as they were in her hands, she could take the time to extract their blood - it might come in useful one day.

With this thought in mind, her consciousness entered her storage space, where she bought an iron cage, intending to take all of the rainbow frogs away.

Her current position was at the well opening, still quite a distance from the rainbow frogs, so using her thoughts to get them into the cage was impossible.

Considering these creatures were full of poison everywhere, she didn't dare rashly go down into the well either.

It seemed that in order to get all of the rainbow frogs here into the cage, she would need the help of her precious little steamed bun.

Sure enough, as soon as her little darling came out, it immediately took care of the rainbow frogs.

She saw it roar at the rainbow frogs a few times, and the rainbow frogs quickly climbed up the walls of the well, before obediently jumping out of the well mouth and into the cage.

The little steamed bun was about to struggle free from its mistress' embrace to go take a look at its spoils of war, but He Zhiran heartlessly sent it into her storage space. These rainbow frogs were different from the others, being full of deadly poison. If her little steamed bun accidentally touched one, it would be a huge loss.

To be safe, He Zhiran also bought a box in her storage space that could contain the iron cage, and after placing the cage inside, locked it up before finally feeling reassured enough to send her little steamed bun into storage space.

He Zhiran knew that the little steamed bun would be unhappy at being forcefully put into storage space, and was just getting ready to enter her space consciousness to comfort it a bit, when at this moment, there was movement from the well below.

"Senior brother, our rainbow frogs have all disappeared, and the mechanisms have been destroyed by someone too."

He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye could only hear someone speaking from below the well, but did not know the other side's martial arts skills. To be safe, the two of them hurriedly retreated to a nearby big tree.

"It was probably the little steamed bun's cries that brought people out." He Zhiran guessed.

"Mm, this is not bad too, at least it lets us know there are definitely people down in that well."

As they talked, Mo Jiuye could already sense someone coming up from the well.

He quietly reminded her, "Someone's coming up."

He Zhiran did not reply, only fixed her eyes tightly on the direction of the well opening.

Soon afterwards, two middle aged men, one tall and one short, climbed up from the well opening.

The two first checked the mechanism control device that Mo Jiuye had just destroyed.

The tall one said, "Not good, my rainbow frogs have all disappeared."

Although the short one did not speak, his eyes began to look all around, while one hand reached into his clothes and took out several small porcelain bottles.

He removed the stopper from one of the bottles and let out the poisonous gu insect inside.

"Darling, go and find the scent of the living."

Just after his words fell, the gu insect, about the size of a honeybee, flew towards the direction of Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran.

Realgar could restrain gu insects, as He Zhiran had read in books.

She had never personally experienced whether it really worked, so she did not dare take it lightly.

To err on the safe side, she took out a flamethrower from her storage space and placed it in Mo Jiuye's hands - if necessary, they would rather expose themselves than let the gu burn to death.

They saw the gu flying straight towards them, just about to get close to the big tree concealing them, when it suddenly stopped.

Then it started flying about chaotically like a headless fly.

Seeing the gu insect's reaction, He Zhiran could confirm the realgar was effective, and finally let out a breath.

Although she and Mo Jiuye were unafraid of those two people, it was still best not to expose themselves before finding out anything.

Watching as the gu insect flew away, the short man was dumbfounded.

"Senior brother, why is my gu so abnormal today?"

The tall one was also somewhat at a loss. In all their years raising gus, they had never encountered such a situation before.

"It was in front of that big tree that your gu started acting strange - there must be something fishy there."

As they spoke, both of their gazes fell upon the direction of the big tree.

"Senior brother, let's go over and take a look."

"Alright."

The two walked over, checking carefully the whole time, and were very cautious.

Mo Jiuye was also prepared to take action.

He Zhiran took out a sleeping potion made from green bamboo snakes from her storage space - as soon as these two people approached, she would first make them fall unconscious.

The two were careful, one hand grasping a weapon, the other holding a gu-breeding porcelain bottle, maintaining their readiness to take action at all times.

Just as Mo Jiuye was about to make his move, He Zhiran pulled him back with a grab.

She shook her head at Mo Jiuye, then quickly circled around him and scattered a handful of sleeping powder at the two men.

In merely an instant, the two had no chance to react before collapsing.

He Zhiran waved her little hand, instantly storing the two men away in her space.

Now that they had people to question for information, she and Mo Jiuye were in no rush to go down the well and investigate. The two entered the space together.

Mo Jiuye first searched the two men, and astonishingly found 5 small porcelain bottles for keeping gus on their bodies.

It seemed these two were no ordinary gu raisers - for the average gu keeper, they were outstanding if they could breed two gus in a lifetime, yet these two had a total of six gus, including the one they had just released outside.

That meant each of them had raised three gus.

Mo Jiuye most hated these gu insects. Of the three brothers he had found at home, two had been poisoned by gu, so he knew their harmfulness was not shallow.

Without He Zhiran needing to speak, he directly took out the flamethrower and completely destroyed the five gu insects.

But he was careless, and had not expected that out of the five gus, one was the tall man's cherished gu. With the death of the gu insect, the unconscious tall man vomited blood and went to meet the King of Hell...

Mo Jiuye...

He had only hated these gu insects, and hadn't thought that this man had actually bred a cherished gu.

The person who should have been questioned had died before they even had a chance to ask.

He Zhiran was also somewhat speechless for a time. She had long seen Mo Jiuye's actions and did not stop him.

Because she also hadn't expected that the tall man would be so impressive as to breed a cherished gu.

Now there was only one person left alive, they absolutely could not have any more accidents.

To be safe, Mo Jiuye tightly bound the short man up before letting He Zhiran wake him.

The short man opened his eyes, and was shocked stiff by the verdant scenery in front of him. His first instinct was to stand up, before he discovered his body had been tied up like a rice dumpling.

Turning his head, he saw the smiling yet not smiling faces of two people, and then lowering his head was his senior brother's corpse...
