Snakehead fish tofu soup, crispy grass carp (1) Dangkang pig bone marrow...

After a good night's sleep, in Sangye's dream, the paulownia tree kept rustling, accompanied from time to time by the sound of bamboo shoots breaking apart.

The grotto and the phoenix tree complement each other; the growth of one helps the other break through. However, both of them have been stuck in a bottleneck for a long time.

Hearing the long-lost sound of bones falling, Sangye entered the cave with a long-lost excitement, only to be disappointed to see a spirit body that was as tall and strong as before he fell asleep, unchanged.

Before she could feel disappointed, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the building, as if people were fighting, accompanied by the cries of birds.

A woman's angry voice stood out: "Don't stop me, make her come out and see me! I want to ask her what she did to my daughter!"

Sangye's heart tightened, but before she could react, a powerful force kicked open her door, smashing the newly installed display shelf across the room to pieces.

Before the powerful mental attack could reach her, Sangye nimbly rolled off the bed, wrapped in the blanket, and narrowly avoided it.

"Enough!" General Aso's voice rang out, clearly displeased. "Are you going to have something happen to someone on their very first day? This is, after all, someone His Majesty sent. Don't go too far!"

Sangye poked his head out from the headboard and saw the tall General Aso and her fish-tailed Gu Diao blocking the way of a woman with a brown ponytail. A scar ran from the woman's right eye down to her jaw, and her eyes were filled with burgeoning anger.

"Why let this kind of guide into our base? Are we supposed to accept everyone His Majesty sends?" the brown-haired woman blurted out. "Wasn't she here to deal with Marshal Lin? Why didn't we just send her over yesterday! Instead, we let her stay at the base and harm my daughter!"

Sangye was completely confused. Then, General Aso, who was utterly unreasonable, turned around, frowned, and asked with disgust, "What exactly did you feed Wu Jia Ning?"

Wu Huansheng and her husband Mu An rushed back for Wu Jianing's next surgery.

When Wu Jia Ning was born, Wu Huan Sheng was a general in the 19th Legion of the Empire, stationed in the G sequence planetary cluster of the Gamma system, which was the first line of defense for the Empire against the Zerg.

The Zerg invaded the brain of one of Wu Huansheng's subordinate officers and attacked the mother and daughter during childbirth. The mutated subordinate had the Zerg's hard mouthparts and pounced to bite Wu Jianing, but Wu Huansheng snatched the Zerg's mouthparts and bit Wu Jianing's calf.

Mu An decisively cut off her lower leg—with the Empire's medical technology, the severed limb could be reattached by freezing it immediately—but he did not expect that the Zerg would go to such lengths to lose an Empire general, allowing a precious S-class poisonous insect to invade.

The severed limb was immediately corroded into bone, while the remaining thigh was constantly invaded by toxins.

Mu An poured all his mental energy into preserving Wu Jianing's spiritual body, but he also lost too much irreplaceable mental energy, and was demoted from an A-level guide to a C-level guide.

Due to the effects of the insectoid toxins, Wu Jianing's spiritual body remained dormant. When Mu An tried to calm her spirit, he could see that tiny bundle curled up inside, sleeping soundly without making a sound.

Her body will continue to grow until adulthood, but without the help of a spiritual entity, her body tissues are limited, making it impossible for her to regrow her lower leg. What grows is useless connective sarcoma tissue, and after being eroded by toxins, even her bone growth becomes deformed.

She had to undergo surgery again and again to remove useless bones and necrotic connective tissue, and her young body had to endure tremendous pain every three months.

But last night, after eating dinner prepared by Sangye, Wu Jianing went home and fell asleep earlier than usual. However, she woke up in the early morning screaming – a brand new section of her calf had suddenly grown out, covered with a layer of bloody flesh.

The sight was horrifying and heartbreaking for Wu Huansheng and his wife. Wu Huansheng was already mentally unstable, and the incident involving his daughter had severely traumatized him. During a mental breakdown years ago, he single-handedly piloted a warship to bomb the Zerg base.

At this moment, the daughter was sent to the base hospital for surgery, but the doctors dared not operate because Jia Ning's newly grown bone was intact. There were no stray branches or withered, superfluous stubble—it was as if a severed limb had been reborn.

But Jia Ning's pain was very real. Wu Huansheng, enraged, charged forward.

Kuwano knew that the food he made could disregard differences in social status and regulate the mind, but he never imagined that it could actually regenerate a severed leg.

Even in the cultivation world, bringing the dead back to life and restoring flesh to bones is a magic that defies fate and can change destiny. Even her grandmaster couldn't do it, let alone someone as insignificant as her.

When Sangye recalled what he had fed Wu Jia Ning yesterday evening, it seemed to be just ordinary ingredients imbued with spiritual energy, nothing special.

Until she remembered those few pieces of pig bone marrow.

She initially thought the pork bones were too hard to cook properly, but now that she remembers the origin of the story, she realizes it's not that simple.

The pig bone marrow in the storage ring comes from a mythical beast called Dang Kang, which resembles a pig but has four huge tusks. When it turns 150, it will be reborn from skin to bone with a completely different body, and then live a carefree 150 years before dying peacefully. Wherever Dang Kang goes, there will be a bountiful harvest.

Their clan once came to Shifangwu to recuperate and live in peace. The two sides lived in harmony for decades. Shifangwu also had a bumper harvest every year because of Dang Kang's arrival. Many clansmen left their shed flesh and blood as gifts to them.

The meat was consumed quickly, but a lot of bones remained.

Sangye already had the answer in her heart; as long as she could see Wu Jianing's spiritual body, she would be able to confirm it.

She stood up, still wrapped in the blanket. Because of her tall stature, she could easily stare directly at Wu Huansheng, who was furious and wanted to tear her apart.

“Your daughter isn’t injured,” she said softly but with undeniable weight, “her leg has regenerated. If you let the doctor amputate the regenerated leg now, she might never be able to stand up again for the rest of her life.”

“I have a way to cure her, as long as you let me see her spiritual body.”

Wu Huansheng didn't believe her at all. Sangye had a bad reputation, and since it concerned her daughter, she preferred to keep it a secret.

Moreover, the technology of limb regeneration is unheard of, and there is no possibility of reversing severe damage to the mind and body. This is why Lin Tengyuan retired.

Faced with Wu Huansheng's questioning, Sangye sneered: "General, it is precisely because of the existence of arrogant sentinels like you that a ruthless guide like me was born."

While Wu Huansheng and Sangye were confronting each other, Mu An observed her the whole time. As a fellow guide, he sensed that Sangye harbored no ill intentions.

“I’ll take you there,” Mu An, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.

"What did you say?!" Wu Huansheng turned her head sharply, looking at him in disbelief.

"Given our physical and mental condition, we can't be with Ningning for the rest of her life." This time, Mu An didn't back down with his wife. "If she could stand up again..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but Wu Huansheng understood what he meant.

When they arrived at the base hospital, the doctor gave Wu Jia Ning painkillers, and the little girl lay peacefully asleep in the sterile ward.

The newly grown shinbone was bare and white, with flesh and blood tissue visibly enveloping and spreading around it.

A group of doctors surrounded the sterile ward, all watching this "miracle" in awe. Medicine paled in comparison.

This seems to be the effect of Wu Jia Ning eating the food prepared by that infamous guide.

Upon seeing Mr. and Mrs. Wu Huansheng walk in, the attending physician exclaimed with excitement, "It's true! The calf has really grown back! It's not necrotic bone!"

She held up her tablet and showed them the data: "All the data is normal; these are the indicators for a normal child!"

Upon seeing Sangye behind them, her eyes lit up even more: "You're the guide? How did you do that!"

Doctors all come from a background of guiding, but their mental strength isn't high enough to become actual guides in military regions. So, they settle for studying medicine, providing support services to ordinary people and the military. Many medical devices now also require mental strength to operate.

Wu Huansheng glanced at the doctor with a not-so-good expression, and the doctor shut his mouth and said nothing more.

“I’ll go in with you.” Although Mu An agreed to Sangye’s request, it didn’t mean he really trusted her.

Sangye nodded and tried to release his mental energy. For the first time, he acted like a normal guide.

The feeling of releasing spiritual energy is wonderful, yet it's similar to releasing spiritual energy before. If you want to enter someone's mental landscape, just go straight to them.

Generally speaking, children's mental landscape lacks the ability to protect itself, so parents will impose restrictions.

Mu An lifted the restrictions, allowing Sangye and his mental energy to smoothly enter Wu Jianing's mental landscape.

Wu Jia Ning's spiritual landscape is a vast land covered with lush green grass, just like her cheerful nature.

Drifting along the grassy field, the two soon arrived in front of a gray object.

This was the first time Kuwano had seen a sleeping spirit.

However, the gray mist on Wu Jia Ning's spiritual body was only a thin layer, and the figure of the spiritual body was very clear.

A small, golden-white Dang Kang. A miniature version from Kuwano's memory.

It has short, sharp teeth, a chubby body, and two jade-green horns on its forehead.

Its large head rested on its short front legs—the lower legs of all four legs were shrouded in a deeper black mist.

Mu An circled it a few times, his expression turning to joy. He looked up at Wu Jianing and said, "The mist on its body has thinned."

The thinning of the fog signifies that the spiritual entity is about to awaken.

After confirming his guess, Sangye breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that after Wu Jianing ate the bone marrow of Dang Kang, her spiritual body received the spiritual power from her "kin," causing her limbs to regenerate, and thus Wu Jianing also grew legs.

Mu An was a father who doted on his daughter. Whenever he was home, he would mentally cleanse her four or five times a day, occasionally pulling her aside to do it again. He also wanted to awaken her spiritual body through the infusion of spiritual power. As long as the spiritual body was alive, it could repair itself.

He had tried for so many years without success, but Sangye succeeded with just a few pieces of bone marrow from a Dangkang pig.

Little Dangkang's belly rose and fell peacefully, and it would lazily stretch every now and then, showing that it was only a matter of time before it woke up.

When Sangye and Mu'an withdrew, Wu Jianing slowly woke up. The painkiller was still working, but she cried out that it was itchy and wanted to scratch her growing limbs.

Wearing a sterile gown, Wu Huansheng hurriedly grabbed her little hand, knelt down by the bed, and gently coaxed her.

When she saw Mu An come out with a smile on his face, a huge weight was lifted from her heart.

"Sister, why are you here?" Wu Jianing was held by her mother's hand, looking pitiful like a little monkey being held captive. She said to Sangye through the sterile ward, "Sister, my legs are so itchy." Tears slowly rolled down her thin cheeks—a child who had to undergo surgery every three months and suffer through the ordeal naturally couldn't gain weight.

Kuwano approached the sterile chamber and examined her leg closely. The regeneration of a severed limb was somewhat like the itching that occurs when nerve endings regenerate during wound healing.

Eating some snakehead fish will help. Snakehead fish meat can relieve itching.

Take out the remaining Dangkang pig bone marrow from the storage ring and stew it into a soup. Then, use the Dangkang pig bone broth to stew a snakehead tofu soup, and finally fry two poached eggs. This will not only relieve itching but also help the spirit body heal quickly.

Sangye bent down and said, "How about I make you some snakehead soup? It will stop itching after you drink it."

"Really?" Wu Jianing's eyes lit up again, and her tone became joyful.
