Xie Yunjiao followed Nanfeng's gaze and realized that Gu Huai had come near them without them knowing when.
I guess you heard everything she said.
"That..." Xie Yunjiao looked at Gu Huai, scratched her head, and wanted to say something, but her mind was in a mess at the moment and she couldn't think of anything for a while.
Gu Huai said to her, "I've already lit the fire. I just wanted to ask you, how many bowls of water do you need to boil the medicine?"
Huh? How could he say that so naturally? Wasn't he angry or upset? Or did he not hear what she just said clearly?
Anyway, since Gu Huai didn't say anything, she just assumed it was the latter.
How many bowls of water are needed to boil the medicine? She needs to figure it out.
Just as she was trying to recall whether the medical book she had just read described how many bowls of water were needed to decoct the medicine, a voice suddenly sounded in her mind.
She blurted out unconsciously: "Three bowls of water boiled into one bowl."
Gu Huai thanked Xie Yunjiao and left.
Xie Yunjiao came to her senses and found that Gu Huai was gone.
She looked at Nanfeng and said, "Where are the others?"
Nan Feng looked at Xie Yunjiao, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Go back and boil the medicine."
Wasn't she here just now? Why did she act as if she didn't know Gu Huai had left?
"Did I tell him how many bowls of water to put in?" Xie Yunjiao asked doubtfully.
"You said, boil three bowls of water into one bowl." Nanfeng said, with more doubt in his eyes.
It was strange. He felt that the boss was acting weird. Could it be that the explosion had made his mind unclear?
"Did I say that?" Xie Yunjiao couldn't believe it. Did she say it when the voice just sounded in her mind?
Xie Yunjiao stood up, and Nanfeng stood up too, fearing that something might happen to her: "Boss, where are you going?"
Xie Yunjiao looked at Jing Kai with a dark face. This place was so small that no matter which direction they went, they would just go around in circles. Where could she go?
"I'm a little tired, go back and get some sleep."
She felt that she must not have recovered yet, so this happened.
She returned to the study and saw Jing Kai sitting inside reading a book.
Her face suddenly turned cold and she turned around to leave.
But Jing Kai stopped her and said, "Yun Qiao, are you free?"
"I'm busy." Xie Yunjiao said unhappily.
Even if I have time, I don't want to pay attention to you, it's that simple.
She was still angry and just didn't want to pay attention to him!
Jing Kai smiled helplessly. He knew that Xie Yunjiao was still angry with him, but he didn't want to explain too much, lest Xie Yunjiao would be more sad.
"I found a notebook here about this space. Take a look."
Xie Yunjiao was stunned for a moment, but still took Jing Kai's book and sat down to read.
The notes describe how the owner of this space obtained this space by chance and what he did with this space.
As I slowly flipped through the pages, the handwriting began to change, probably because the owner of the space had changed.
After watching it to the end, Xie Yunjiao suddenly felt that what the last master had done was inexplicably familiar to her, as if she had also participated in it.
But damn, she had no idea what it was.
"I think you should be the current owner of this space. It was you who transferred us into the space and saved us in the critical moment." Jing Kai said.
He calculated everything, but he missed something.
He never expected that his people would betray him and not tell him that the King of Baiyue had obtained the explosives.
Their country does not produce explosives. Explosives appeared once a long time ago. They were very powerful and left corpses everywhere after the explosion. They regarded them as evil things.
Although many people are afraid of the power of explosives, there are still some people who covet this power and want to use it to accomplish their own cause of unification.
Just like the King of Baiyue this time.
There were clearly his guards on the ring and his people under the ring, but in order to eliminate him and prevent future troubles, he ordered people to detonate the explosives.
If Xie Yunjiao hadn't accidentally opened the space and let them all in, they would have been torn to pieces in the explosion.
"It's me?" Xie Yunjiao found it a little unbelievable. The handwriting of the last owner of the notebook was beautiful and fluent, but she didn't like writing since she was a child, and her handwriting looked like dog chewing shit.
Later, when I grew up a little, my handwriting could be barely read, but it was not very good-looking, and it could not be compared with the other person's handwriting.
"But the handwriting looks like it was written by a girl, and you are the only woman here," Jing Kai said.
In fact, he felt a little guilty when he said this, because Xie Yunjiao's handwriting was even uglier than his, a man's.
But he didn't want to mention that she had disappeared for two or three years. Only she knew what happened during that time.
Xie Yunjiao knew what Jing Kai was feeling guilty about, but she didn't expose it.
However, she also had a feeling in her heart. Although there was no evidence to prove it, she still felt that she might be the current owner of this space.
"Have you thought about how to get out of this space?" Jing Kai asked.
Xie Yunjiao pursed her lips and shook her head. She couldn't even remember how she activated this space, so how could she know how to get out.
Jing Kai said to her, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Think about it slowly."
Xie Yunjiao hummed, and suddenly realized that she and Jing Kai were too close. She pushed Jing Kai and said to him, "Why are you so close? Do you think I know you well? Don't you know that men and women shouldn't touch each other?"
If you come this close next time, I will be rude to you!"
As she spoke, she raised her fist and shook it at Jing Kai.
Jing Kai smiled helplessly. He said "OK" and stood up. "Okay, I won't bother you anymore."
After Jing Kai left, she took the notebook and read it carefully again, as if she wanted to get something useful from it. What she wanted to see most at the moment was how to enter and exit the space freely.
Suddenly, the sound of a flute was heard outside the house. That melody was her favorite when she was a child.
Her mother would often hum this little song to coax her to sleep, and later it was Jing Kai who did it.
You don't have to guess who is playing the flute outside.
But the flute sounded no longer as cheerful as before, but rather a little sadder.
What is there for him to be sad about? Xie Yunjiao snorted in her heart.
Before she knew it, she felt sleepy and slowly fell asleep.
This time she had many dreams again. The things in her dreams seemed to be happening to her in real life. She could even feel the pain and the feeling of confusion and helplessness.
After drinking the medicine, Gu Huai sat outside for a long time before coming in. When he passed by the study, he heard Xie Yunjiao seem to call Gu Huai.
His body stiffened and he was afraid to look back.
