Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 1548: Chapter 1548: Is It Not Contagious?

“Damn thing!”

Several Longhu Guards immediately stepped forward and hacked at the female corpse.

“Someone, someone, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and bring some firewood, and burn these things,” one of the Longhu Guards ordered the Shu Family’s people.

It was impossible to bring such objects away; the only option was to burn them with fire.

The steward, hearing what the Longhu Guard said, quickly summoned a few brave servants and swiftly gathered the firewood, but they dared not approach, instead handing over the firewood to the Longhu Guards.

The Longhu Guards threw the firewood onto the two bodies and set them ablaze.

Then, they looked at their own sabers; those who had used theirs to chop at the corpses all, without agreement, threw their sabers into the fire as well.

Who knew what kind of poison it was; if it contaminated them and they turned into things like those corpses, what should they do?

When compared to a saber, their own lives were more important. It was better to be safe; better to burn them and not turn into something neither human nor ghost.

As the roaring flames surged, everyone could still see the corpses struggling within the fire.

This scene was chilling to the bone.

Many of the servants, despite having vomited until their stomachs were empty, still hunched over in the corners, retching because the thought of being poisoned to death was too horrifying.

The same thing was not only happening in the Shu Family but also within several other major clans.

Eldest Brother Yan received the news and rushed over to Prince Zhanyun’s residence to find Qian Jiyun, or rather, primarily to find An Jiuyue.

Didn’t she have some antidote powder? Maybe she would know what was going on.

“How could this happen?”

Upon hearing the news, Qian Jiyun was also incredulous.

Hadn’t An Jiuyue said it was only Half Puppet Poison, which could only cause death and not turn people into puppets? Then what was the situation Eldest Brother Yan and the others were talking about?

“Eldest brother, don’t panic; let’s go ask An Jiuyue together. Perhaps she will know,” he said.

Since he couldn’t figure out the cause, the only option was to consult An Jiuyue. Maybe she would know what was going on.

Upon arriving at Qiongzhi Courtyard, An Jiuyue had just gotten out of bed not long ago and was preparing to eat her morning meal before sending Qian Jiyun to find out the situation. However, she didn’t expect to see him coming with others.

“Hmm?”

Seeing the two people, she uttered a single syllable.

What was this situation, coming over so early? It couldn’t be good news.

“Sister-in-law, last night the Emperor’s men took action and saved them, but… the corpses moved,” Eldest Brother Yan said directly, stating his purpose.

“Moved?”

An Jiuyue was taken aback for a moment, then quickly understood.

Were they becoming puppets?

“Half Puppet Poison can indeed cause corpses to become puppets. However, such puppets have little lethal power. If discovered in time, simply burning them with fire is sufficient,” she explained.

“What if someone got hurt by the puppets?” Eldest Brother Yan asked.

One of his Longhu Guards had been accidentally wounded and they didn’t know what to do now.

“See a doctor and care for the wound, that’s all,” An Jiuyue answered.

“What?”

It wasn’t just Eldest Brother Yan who was surprised by that answer, but Qian Jiyun was taken aback as well.

See a doctor and care for the wound? Was it really that simple?

“It won’t spread?” Qian Jiyun asked.
