Chapter 12 Okay.
Although Qing Dun strictly ordered me to finish the tasks, he did not stop me when I put the documents aside and looked through the materials.
You know what, there is quite a lot of information on this table. Let me take a look.
A rubbing of the Xianzhou Alliance Declaration? Hmm, it seems to be talking about the time when the alliance was founded. Putting it here probably has the same effect as a required reading list, right?
Monitoring report from Yuque Immortal Boat? Oh, it's a surveillance of potential enemies. It doesn't seem like anything to worry about at the moment.
The Six Imperial Letters from the Danding Division? Well, not something I need to deal with.
The General's Diary? Well, this won’t give me an answer.
…Wait, a diary? ! I always thought that the diaries in the game were for players to read, but it turns out that Jingyuan would really throw the diary on the table?

Damn it, I feel like I can't control my restless hands anymore.
I looked to my left at Qingdun who was working diligently, and to my front at the Yunqi guard who was yawning. Finally, I reached out silently to grab Jingyuan's diary and hid it under the potted plant in the corner.
Phew, I feel much more at ease now.
Private things like diaries should be buried somewhere where they can't see the light of day.
I nodded with satisfaction and tried to sneak back to my seat, but when I turned around, I was met with Qingdun's gaze.
Oh no, was he discovered?
I could only pretend that I was just stretching my body, and now I moved back to my seat and thought seriously about the document in front of me.
"Let me remind you, General Jing Yuan, that it has been almost half an hour since you entered the Shen Ce Palace."
...Help, Qingdun, why are you like the invigilator who found that someone hasn't said a word an hour into the exam!
And this is the examination room with only one candidate!
I unfolded the document on the table with grief and anger, and began to look into its eyes affectionately: Are you willing to reveal your heart to me and write down the answer automatically?
The indifferent official document said nothing, and it was even unwilling to utter a cold snort!
I unfolded the next one with resentment and continued to look at each other.
......No way! If I continue like this, the “invigilator” will soon find out that I don’t know how to answer any of the questions!
Eh, this doesn't seem like a bad thing?
Deep in thought, so why should I be so diligent in covering for Jingyuan?
I slammed the table angrily, then slowly sat back down under Qingdun's gaze.
Forget it, Jing Yuan must have his reasons for doing this. Maybe he is dealing with some difficult matter right now.
Just as I was thinking about this, I heard a loud bang coming from the gate of the Shen Ce Mansion in front of me.
"Jingyuan, open the door! Don't hide in there and keep silent. I know you are at home! If you have the guts to not take the medicine, then you have the guts to open the door!"
Yunqi, who was in charge of the reporting but had just come in and hadn’t had time to speak:?
I now believe that Qingdun has truly experienced all kinds of things in the world. Faced with such a commotion, she was not surprised at all, and even wondered: "Did he find the wrong person?"
I nodded solemnly: "It must be."
Who is Jing Yuan? Anyway, I am not! I lowered my head, pulled out the third document, and began to look at it.
So Qingdun nodded and said, "I understand."
Huh? What do you understand?
I watched in confusion as Qing Zhu walked up to the messenger and stood still, listening to her instructions: "Tell the people outside that the Jing Yuan he is looking for is not here."
"Wait!" I called out to the messenger who was about to leave. I sighed and gathered the documents at hand. "How can I not welcome a distinguished guest? Please let him in."
To be honest, I really wanted to pretend to be the real Jingyuan and say that I had nothing to do with this embarrassing behavior, but considering that I really didn't know how to answer any of the questions, I could only call the person in with tears in my eyes.
The figure of the person coming was getting closer and closer. I was silent in disbelief. Finally, I realized sadly that I was not mistaken. The person coming was "Dan Heng".
I thought the person who said this would be "Ren", or even "Yan Qing" is very likely, but now...
It’s over now. Dan Heng, the most reliable of the three train members, is also going to lose his image in Luofu.
A moment of silence.
"Dan Heng" obviously did not want to do this voluntarily, so much so that as soon as he entered the door, he pretended to be busy and looked left and right.
After realizing that there was no second Jing Yuan here, he froze for a moment: "It seems that I came at the wrong time."
I immediately responded: "No, you came at the right time!"
Don’t go, don’t go! Help me, I need to take the medicine before the exam!
Dan Heng stared at me, and finally said in a daze, "If the general has anything to tell you, it's better to let the Starry Sky Train dome your order."
"You're not going to use a surprise attack." I looked at Dan Heng as if he was looking for a lifeline, and said bluntly, "I'm the Jing Yuan you're looking for."
I'm sorry, Jingyuan, I really want to help you, but you asked me to cover for you before the big exam!
"Is that so?" Dan Heng closed his eyes in despair, and finally waved his hand "joyfully": "Come on, Dalang, it's time to take medicine!"
...The smile is uglier than the cry, and the deep reluctance is simply too obvious.
I looked at him sincerely and gloated, "Just blink if you feel threatened."
Dan Heng ignored the topic expressionlessly and said, "I brought you breakfast."
"Okay, nothing happened just now." I immediately changed my words, then jumped in front of "Dan Heng" and looked at the opaque breakfast bag in his hand expectantly: "What did you bring? Mingou cake? Tapir bun roll?"
"Those are not suitable for eating in the morning." "Dan Heng" rummaged through the breakfast bag and finally took out a...medicine bag.
Well, at least it's not a juice made from a brew of various herbs, it's just a packet of powder.
I stared at the powder bag in resistance, and then suddenly remembered something, "You didn't bring any water, right?"
"I really didn't bring it." Dan Heng pretended to be in a daze and then coughed lightly, suppressing the smile on his face. "But it doesn't matter, I brought you something else!"
Seeing how happy he was, I realized something was wrong, but I couldn't stop him. I could only watch him take out a well-packaged cup of soda bean juice from the breakfast bag.
"...Actually, I think it's okay to starve to death."
"Just kidding." "Dan Heng" opened the medicine bag, raised his hand to summon a stream of water, mixed the medicine powder into it, and then controlled the water flow to form a small water ball.
Wow, liquid pills.
I swallowed it in one gulp and fell silent again in an instant.
One second, two seconds... half a minute later, Dan Heng couldn't help but ask, "How do you feel?"
I struggled to come up with an adjective that was abstract enough, but finally gave up: “It was like drinking water, but it was all gray.”
Dan Heng looked at me in silence, "I'm asking if you have any special feelings in your body."
"Now that you mention it..." I felt it carefully, and finally said affirmatively: "No feeling at all."
"That's good." "Dan Heng" breathed a sigh of relief, "We asked someone and found out that this is Shentongqi Powder, which is mainly used to treat extreme emotional fluctuations such as panic and fear. It doesn't have any side effects, but I'm afraid..."
He stopped suddenly and winked at me.
I kind of understand what he means: but I'm afraid this medicine will be a burden for ordinary humans.
After all, our physique is different from that of the Xianzhou people.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at the soda soy milk placed aside.
So, this thing should be used to induce vomiting just in case.
"Thank you for making such a special trip." I took the breakfast bag from him and took out the thermal box and chopsticks.
There was no other place around, and it didn't seem appropriate to eat on Jingyuan's desk, so I simply sat cross-legged on the floor and prepared to eat.
Before I even picked up the siu mai with my chopsticks, I heard Dan Heng say worriedly, "Do you...really think it's okay?"
I looked at him in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Dan Heng seemed to have confirmed something, and immediately stuffed the soda bean juice into my hand, saying eagerly, "Drink it!"
He wasn't kidding. But I really didn’t think there was anything wrong with me, so I looked at Qingdun again.
Qing Jun looked even more nervous than Dan Heng. He even snatched the cup of soda bean juice from my hand, threw away the straw, opened the lid, and handed it to me again, saying firmly, "Drink it."
A sour smell similar to fermentation hit my nose, and my stomach, which had not yet eaten, immediately contracted in resistance. I lowered my eyes to look at the gray-green color, and finally said, "Okay."
