When the coachman collapsed, the little girl immediately broke free from the bearded man's arms, threw herself beside him, and burst into loud sobs. "Daddy, Daddy, don't scare me..."
Ye Weiming frowned at the sight.
What the hell!
Was this a scam?
But judging by how he looked like he could stop breathing at any moment, it did not seem like an act.
Stepping forward, Ye Weiming grabbed the coachman's wrist and checked his pulse before saying, "He's been poisoned!"
As he spoke, he pressed one hand against the man's back and released a burst of true qi. The coachman immediately spat out a mouthful of black blood with a "Wah!"
The poisoned blood had been cleared!
Next, Ye Weiming took out an Antidote Pill that could be used by both players and NPCs. He pried open the coachman's mouth and tossed the pill inside, then sent a stream of true qi after it. Using this rather forceful method, he "delivered" the antidote down the coachman's throat and into his stomach.
Seeing the pitiful look in the little girl's eyes, Ye Weiming smiled gently and patted her head. "It's all right now."
"Your father ate something poisonous earlier, but it was only a very ordinary poison. I've already forced the toxins out of his body with my internal energy. With an antidote on top of that, he'll recover completely very soon."
The little girl nodded excitedly. "Thank you, Uncle!"
Uncle?
Ye Weiming was somewhat displeased by the form of address, but he still put on a magnanimous smile and asked, "Little sister, what's your name?"
The little girl wiped away her tears and replied with a smile, "My name is Zhou Zhiruo. Thank you, Uncle, for saving my father."
Zhou Zhiruo?
That coachman was her father?
Wait, wasn't Zhou Zhiruo's
