Unsurprisingly, Nanqu found three more packets of powder in a bedroom in the church.

Nan Qu is only responsible for detoxifying and dealing with any future problems. As for how this matter will be judged in the end, that's Taya's business, and she won't interfere.

Fearing that the poison might spread today and cause secondary poisoning, Nanqu told Xia Er about it and planned to let the people stay in the square for another day.

As for those who had taken the antidote, they were all arrested by Nan Qu.

Nan Qu had done everything she was supposed to do, and as for state affairs, she left them all to Xia Er. She completely relinquished her responsibilities.

When Xia Er saw Nan Qu hand over all the matters to him, his expression was very complicated.

He had always felt that Nanqu was disrespectful to Taya and was very resistant to her, but when he saw that she had handled everything in just one day and one night, Charles knew that she was capable.

However, in his mind, the more capable a person is, the greater their ambition. But now, with such favorable conditions, if she were to take over Vestalia and start a rebellion, she might very well succeed.

But she didn't do that. On the contrary, the way she walked away made it clear that she was afraid of being caught or called back, and she was obviously disgusted by these things.

He has the ability, but lacks ambition. However, he can play a crucial role in times of crisis.

So, this isn't the first time Nanqu has saved Taya, nor is it the first time he's saved Vistalia.

Suddenly, Charles realized why his father was willing to go bankrupt to protect his cousin Taya. It wasn't because she was blessed with good fortune, but because his judgment of people was far superior to Taya's.

Nan Qu had no idea that Xia Er had so many feelings on her mind. The first thing she did when she got back to her room was to remove her colored contact lenses, because wearing them for a long time was really uncomfortable.

After washing up and changing her clothes, Nanqu lay down on the princess bed and had a wonderful sleep.

Before going to sleep, Nan Qu was thinking that since the modern world was lacking a bed, she would get a princess bed as big as this one to take back home once things were over here.

Nan Qu slept for two days straight, not waking up until the morning of the third day.

She felt much more energetic, and now that her space was open, she took medicinal baths every day, which increased her internal energy at the same rate as before in the martial arts world.

Nanqu was very satisfied and got up to find something to eat.

Charles appeared while Nan Qu was having breakfast at the restaurant. He found it somewhat amusing to watch Nan Qu wolfing down her food.

“You slept for a really long time. Nowadays, there are no Christians here. If something happens to you, there will be no one to treat you.”

Because Nanqu hadn't come out for two consecutive days, Xia Er thought she was sick. However, after the maid went in to check on her and came out to report that she was just sleeping, Xia Er was relieved.

Nan Qu looked at Xia Er while eating bread with jam: "Have you eaten yet?"

Charles wasn't used to this way of greeting, but he still answered sincerely, "I've already eaten."

After finishing his sentence, Charles unconsciously brought up the matter of the castle to Nanqu: "Yesterday, the people have already started to live their normal lives. Moreover, I have already issued a notice about this matter. After the people learned that they were not invaded by darkness but poisoned, everyone behaved quite well."

Nan Qu waved her hand: "You can tell Taya about these things when she gets back. I'm not interested in these things."

Charles choked; this man was really direct.

With Taya gone, and Charles busy with many things, he could only leave, seeing that Nanqu showed no intention of helping.

Nan Qu changed her clothes and went to the mercenary group wearing a veil.

After selling a solar-powered flashlight, Nanqu had enough money to buy herself a small courtyard house.

So she happily moved out, and even hired a carpenter to make all sorts of gift boxes for herself. She hadn't forgotten that she came to this world specifically to make gift boxes.

Each gift box is printed with the name of her shop, "Otherworld," but in the characters of the Kingdom of Yueyun. Moreover, the inside is decorated with openwork carvings, and the patterns on them are the national flower of the Kingdom of Yueyun, called "Fantasy Lotus."

In addition, the cloisonné technique makes the box look very high-end.

These boxes cost 50 copper coins for the large ones, 30 copper coins for the small ones, and 10 copper coins for the smallest ones. Nanqu ordered ten of them initially.

Because she knew that time would stand still if she left this world, Nanqu decided to wait until the box was finished before leaving.

Before leaving, however, she returned to the small courtyard she had bought and planned to thoroughly renovate it.

Of course, Nanqu wouldn't clean up the mess herself. Besides, she also had to consider cooking for herself in the future, so Nanqu simply bought several servants.

In this world, as long as you have money, everything is easy.

Watching the servants busily working in an orderly manner, Nan Qu, remembering her unfamiliarity with the plants of this world, went directly to Dragon Bone Mountain that very day—a place that mercenaries longed for and ordinary people feared.

Although Nan Qu's cultivation speed in internal energy cultivation has increased considerably, she has, after all, started practicing martial arts again, and she doesn't think she has any chance of winning against the big guys on the back mountain.

She was lucky enough to be recognized as a master once; she didn't think she'd be so lucky again.

Therefore, Nanqu learns about these grasses from the outer perimeter of Longgushan.

Unlike last time when she was chased by Regal and ran in a panic, today she was seriously examining the grass. As it turned out, she didn't recognize a single one of them.

Nan Qu was somewhat speechless. She couldn't very well emulate Shennong tasting hundreds of herbs, nor did she have the courage of Li Shizhen to write the "Compendium of Materia Medica".
