He counted them; there were three in total. For some reason, he had a feeling that these throwing knives weren't a complete set and that a few were missing.

Wait, there's another one with Shi Kun.

Thinking of the place where the flying knife had been stuck, Zuan's eyelids twitched, and he even had an impulse to get rid of that dirty throwing knife.

However, he also understood that there was a world of difference between the effects of collecting a complete set of magical artifacts and the functions of individual pieces, just like how many pieces of equipment in his previous life often had set effects.

Seeing that the Crown Princess was still lecturing the people of the Eastern Palace in the next room, he went directly to the Imperial Hospital, taking this opportunity to familiarize himself with the environment of the palace.

Several times along the way, guards stopped him to ask questions. He simply took out the token of the Crown Prince's attendant and said that he was on the orders of the Crown Prince and Crown Princess to visit the injured Shi Kun.

None of the guards suspected anything, after all, no one in the world had ever dared to falsely convey the Crown Prince's orders.

Having transmigrated to Zu'an, Zu'an didn't have the same scruples as the natives, so she could just say things like that without hesitation. Anyway, it was only natural for the Crown Princess to send someone to visit the injured. She probably hadn't fully recovered from the shock yet, but she would definitely remember to send someone over later. By checking for any omissions and filling in the gaps in advance, Zu'an would be grateful to her in the end.

Upon arriving at the Imperial Hospital, he found everyone inside bustling about, clearly preoccupied with treating the seriously injured Shi Kun and having no time to attend to him.

Zuan wandered around inside for a while and soon found a bloodstained throwing knife on a table.

Thinking about what kind of blood it was, Zuan picked up a pot of tea with a look of disgust and rinsed off the bloodstains. Then he took a piece of gauze and cleaned the blade.

Although some passersby found it a bit strange, no one said anything because he was dressed as an official of the Eastern Palace. All their attention was now focused on Shi Kun inside.

The conversations of the imperial physicians could be heard continuously coming from the inner room:

"Has the wound been cleaned properly?"

"After I use water magic to reconnect the severed limb, you must immediately apply a bone-healing ointment to the wound and then fix it in place. You must be quick."

"And the herbal medicine isn't ready yet. Make sure he drinks it as soon as we finish this. Oh, and make sure there's not too much liquid."

...

Zuan's expression changed; he hadn't expected that limb reattachment surgery could be performed in this world. The cultivation world and the technological world were indeed different paths leading to the same destination.

Just as he was sighing, he suddenly heard Shi Kun mumbling curses coming from inside:

"Damn Zu'an, you son of a bitch! ...Tear them to pieces!"

"%#￥@*..."

...

Shi Kun's anger level increased by 999+999+999...

These words were mumbled and unclear, clearly spoken unconsciously by Shi Kun while he was unconscious, and one could feel the intense resentment and malice within them.

Zu An narrowed his eyes. "You were the one who tried to harm me first, and you were injured by the Crown Princess. Why don't you go to her instead of hating me?"

The thought that such a twisted and venomous snake was secretly plotting against him made Zu'an's eyes turn cold. "If you repay evil with kindness, how will you repay kindness? Repay evil with justice!"

Although he considered himself a good person, he was never the kind of saint who would say, "If you want me to die, then you'd better die first."

He looked around. With so many imperial physicians surrounding Shi Kun, all their attention was on him, and there were even some experts among them. Under such circumstances, killing Shi Kun would be extremely difficult.

I used to be curious about whether people who spent tens of thousands of yuan on games were rich, but recently I found out that a friend of mine spent over ten thousand yuan on a single game. It's really eye-opening.
