He soon thought of Fangniang again.

If the current Prince of Dai is indeed the wise Prince, and the one who killed his father and mother, he will definitely seek revenge.

If he kills the Prince Xian, he will become Fangniang's father's killer.

Are they destined to never be together?

This is too cruel.

Zhao Xu pinched himself hard.

It hurt so much that tears almost came to my eyes.

It's not a dream.

It's true.

Today was truly a long and brutal day.

Out of caution, Xiao Qingyin added, "Of course, all of the above are just our speculations and may not be the truth. Perhaps your father and the Prince Xian have some connection and used the resources he left behind, which is why we mistakenly believe that the Prince Xian replaced him."

"Hmm, that's possible."

Zhao Xu said weakly.

There's nothing to be happy about if the Prince of Dai isn't a wise one; it just means Fangniang is his sister.

"We need to verify this."

Xiao Qingyin continued.

"A birthday banquet would be a good opportunity."

Zhao Xu looked bewildered: "How do I verify it?"

Just as Xiao Qingyin was about to answer, a plump pigeon flew in through the window; it was the very same one that Qiu Sanniang often used.

The fat pigeon excitedly raised its right claw, gesturing for her to pick up the item.

"Wait a mininute."

As Xiao Qingyin spoke, she took the letter from the fat pigeon's leg.

Upon opening it, I found it was actually good news.

"Third Sister has found information about that strange seed!"

She excitedly walked up to Yi Shuihan and read Qiu Sanniang's letter with him.

"...There's a small tribe on the southern island with grass sprouts growing on their heads. They can survive on water alone, without eating, but they fear fire and cold, and they don't have a cyclical diet. If a limb is cut off, it can be reattached as long as it's not completely severed. Some people have even found tiny roots inside their corpses..."

Upon seeing this, Xiao Qingyin immediately summoned Yi Wu.

"Take your hair down and let me see the top of your head."

Yi Wu looked embarrassed: "This...this isn't very good, is it? My scalp has been terribly itchy these past few days, I wonder if I've got sores..."

Xiao Qingyin's eyes lit up when she heard this.

"It's not sores, it's grass growing."

Yi Wu: "???"

Grass growing?

What kind of grass grows there?

Is it the grass from the Green Green Grassland?

Was he cheated on?

He doesn't even know where his wife is.

But Xiao Qingyin insisted on seeing, so he had no choice but to take off his hair bun, lower his head, and let her see clearly.

Xiao Qingyin parted the hair on the top of his head and saw a bean-sized bump, slightly revealing the shape of a bean, just like a bean sprouting from the soil in spring.

She reached out and touched it. "Does it hurt?"

Yi Wu: "It doesn't hurt, it's a little itchy."

Do you have any other discomfort?

"No."

Xiao Qingyin took his pulse and found that his body was indeed fine, and his blood and energy were very good, only his pulse was a little strange.

Has anything strange happened these days?

"It seems not..." Yi Wu answered halfway, then suddenly remembered something, "I've been feeling thirsty lately, and I drink a lot of water every day, but I rarely... no, it seems like I haven't been to the toilet for many days."

He initially thought that the hot weather caused him to sweat a lot and suffer from constipation, which was why he went to the toilet less often.

But upon closer reflection, it's not that he missed a session, it's that he didn't participate at all!

Since those seeds appeared in his body, he hasn't gone to the toilet!

How can a person only take in and not give out?

He's not a mythical creature.

His face turned pale instantly: "Could it be that I have a terminal illness and am going to die?"

Xiao Qingyin laughed and said, "You're not sick. It must be that those seeds transformed your waste. Now you're like an immortal, no longer subject to the cycle of the five grains."

Yi Wu: "..."

Yi Shuihan: "..."

Zhao Xu: "..."

Although he couldn't understand it, he was deeply shocked.

Is there really a living person in this world who doesn't need to defecate or urinate?

That's so wonderful!

Yi Wu, however, did not feel happy at all; instead, he felt terrified.

"Are these seeds parasitic on me? Will grass grow on my head? Will I die if the grass grows?"

"It's unclear at the moment, but the people of that grassy tribe do have short lifespans, averaging around thirty years old."

Xiao Qingyin replied.

Yi Wu's heart sank.

If these weeds can't be eradicated, won't he only have a few years left to live?

He asked impatiently, "How can we get rid of these weed seeds?"

Xiao Qingyin shook her head: "I don't know. Third Sister said that the Changcao tribe was wiped out twenty years ago, and not a single member was left. These seeds must have been stolen by the people who wiped out the tribe."

Yi Wu was so angry he turned into a dolphin.

"It must have been the wise prince who did it!"

The wise king must have discovered the Long Grass tribe by accident. After learning how to use these seeds, he slaughtered them.

Xiao Qingyin analyzed, "Third Sister's letter mentioned that the people of the Long Grass Tribe are afraid of fire and cold. This is a characteristic of plants. Perhaps we can use this characteristic to prevent the grass seeds on your body from germinating."

"The girl is so clever!"

Yi Wu blinked his big eyes and praised.

"Would it kill them by burning them over a fire?"

"You can give it a try."

If it works, they will have one less concern and can then act freely to deal with the wise king.

Yi Shuihan had someone bring in a basin of charcoal. Yi Wu immediately went forward to warm himself by the fire, but as soon as he got close to the fire, he let out a cry of pain and his body instantly teleported several meters away.

"It hurts so much!"

He was sweating profusely.

"My whole body ached, and I almost couldn't breathe, just like when I was digging up the seeds that day."

Xiao Qingyin frowned. This was no ordinary fear of fire; even being near a fire could be fatal.
