Crossing the Gods as Slaves

Chapter 152 Self-rescue (2)

Unexpectedly, Ge Xiu's eyes suddenly became fierce. He grabbed Ning Hua's neck with great force and shouted in anger: "Who said I'm sick? I'm a doctor myself. If I'm sick, how could I not know it!"

Ning Hua was choked by Ge Xiu, and she tried to pry Ge Xiu's hand away, but it was impossible for her to do so with such a weak body, and everything was in vain. Soon, her face turned red due to suffocation, and the red color was hidden under the gray skin, which looked extremely painful and weird.

After Ge Xiu went crazy, he gradually calmed down. He loosened his grip on Ning Hua's hand and refused to admit that he was sick: "I'm not sick, you're seeing things."

Those who got air to breathe immediately held their necks and gasped for breath, coughing and gasping, as if their internal organs were about to be coughed out.

The sheets on her body had already fallen to the ground. At this moment, Ning Hua was naked, with bruises all over her body and dry skin making her look like nothing at all.

It took a long time for Ning Hua to recover. Her violent coughing made the gunshot wound in her chest hurt even more.

"Mr. Ge Xiu, you are right, you are not sick, you are just poisoned."

"Poisoned? There is no toxin in my serum at all, how could it be poisoned?" Although Ge Xiu had just denied the fact that he was sick, he knew deep down that there was something wrong with his body, and it was a problem that medical technology could not solve at this stage. Now that Ning Hua had pointed it out, he inexplicably felt a sense of anticipation.

"I know what can save you, but this plant exists on a special planet. Maybe it was salvaged by a spaceship near me. The environment there is special and rarely visited by people. There is a special magnetic field, so this toxin was bred. Similarly, the antidote is near the toxin."

Ge Xiu carefully studied Ning Hua's expression when she spoke, trying to see whether she really knew something or was lying to him, but her face was too ugly, so shriveled and gray that no expression could be seen.

"How do you know this poison? Also, where is this planet and what is it called?"

Ning Hua shook his head: "I don't know what this planet is called, I just know that your antidote must be there. Also, judging by the degree of silver hair on you and Professor Gro, you must have been poisoned for many years, at least fifty years."

"Didn't you say you were my brother's student? Why didn't you tell him about the antidote?" Ge Xiu was still full of hesitation about Ning Hua's words.

"That's because I'm not sure where that planet is."

"Are you sure now?"

Ning Hua nodded: "Yes, it is right where I was shot. The unique magnetic field there is the key to saving me. Otherwise, it is impossible for someone who was shot twice in the heart and exposed to strong radiation to still be alive."

Indeed, the person in front of him had been shot twice in the center of the heart and had been exposed to radiation for who knows how many days. If he could survive under such circumstances, it would be totally inconsistent with all of Ge Xiu's knowledge over the past two hundred years and would be completely unscientific.

"It does make sense to say that, but how do I know if you can help me find the antidote? Maybe you just made it up so that I can save you."

Ge Xiu was very conflicted. Maybe she really knew how to cure his poison. After all, Ning Hua was the only person in all these years who said she could help him find an antidote. But his subconscious told him that he couldn't trust her words.
