Doctor You smiled smugly
"I have a backup plan. Under the pretext of treating the child's illness, I'll stay a few more days, and have Mu Xiao and Qin Xian ride the Seven Hundred to the city ahead to create the illusion of a vine demon's appearance!"
The three people inside were still a little worried: "Is it alright? There won't be any danger!"
Dr. You shrugged.
"Anyway, their main focus is on you. As long as you're always around them, they won't notice what Qin Xian and the others are up to!"
Then he pointed out the window.
"Just like when I had them disguise themselves and deliver medicine to the children lost at other inns, they didn't notice at all, and their eyes never left this room!"
Qin Luo was overjoyed upon hearing this.
"Grandpa You, how are you so clever? I was thinking of sneaking off tonight! I didn't expect you to have already made all the arrangements. You're amazing!"
Dr. You burst into laughter at the praise: "That's right, hahaha~"
Seeing that the old man and the young man had come up with a solution, Liu Zheng then spoke.
"Then why don't you two detoxify the children first? After that, my sister-in-law and I can change their clothes. Doctor You, may we have Qin Liang book another room for you tonight? This room can be for the children."
Wan Yun quickly agreed.
"Yes, yes, Qin Xing and I will take turns keeping watch here tonight to make sure those thieves don't sneak in."
After Dr. You nodded in agreement, he and Qin Luo worked together to detoxify the children.
Qin Luo used his supernatural abilities to penetrate the children's bodies, gradually absorbing the toxins.
Dr. You then gave the children acupuncture to ensure they wouldn't wake up for a while.
After a flurry of activity until noon, Doctor You opened the door and left the room.
Liu Zheng and Wan Yun helped the children change their clothes, while Qin Luo fed them some more water from the spatial stream to ensure they wouldn't starve.
The mention of hunger reminded her of Wu Hua.
"Auntie, let's make fried dough sticks after you change your clothes!"
Liu Zheng then remembered her promise to Wu Hua.
"Okay, okay, make fried dough cakes, make fried dough cakes! I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it. But can Luo Luo really eat lard when she's with Lord Kang?"
Qin Luo was a little confused by Liu Zheng's question. After thinking for a while, she realized why Liu Zheng had asked it, and she suppressed a laugh as she explained to Liu Zheng.
"While Kang's appearance is somewhat similar to... well, you're completely different. So it's the same as what we eat, you don't need to worry about that!"
Liu Zheng was finally relieved: "That's good, that's good!"
Wan Yun looked at Liu Zheng with envy.
"Zhengniang, have you ever met Lord Kang? Isn't he very imposing?"
Liu Zheng thought about the adorable little piglet, and then decided it was better if fewer people knew.
He replied, "I've never seen him before. I only heard it from Luoluo. She said that Lord Kang wanted to eat the fried dough I made, which reminded me of Lord Kang in the storybooks, so I asked if I could use lard!"
Wan Yun's mind flashed through Dang Kang's picture album, and she understood.
"Well, that's something we need to ask!"
The group exchanged glances, burst into laughter, and then left the room.
Doctor You was surrounded outside the door.
"Dr. You said it's uncertain whether he'll survive? We can't rest easy until you give us a clear answer!"
Dr. You wanted to leave but couldn't, and he angrily started cursing.
"Reassurance? You're doing this for peace of mind, but don't think I don't know what you're really after."
Those few people, feeling guilty, remained silent.
Dr. You pointed at them
Let me be frank with you! The children have all been poisoned, but they're stable for now and can be moved in the next three to five days. If they aren't treated properly this time, their internal organs will slowly deteriorate!
The person who had been insisting on picking up the child fell silent.
Doctor You looked at the group with disdain.
"The children are still unconscious. If you truly care for them, please cook them some minced meat soup every day and feed them some later, lest they starve to death before the poison is neutralized."
Upon hearing that they couldn't move for three to five days, would have to buy meat to make soup every day, and that the poison hadn't been neutralized yet, they all started to have other plans.
Seeing their increasingly vile faces, Doctor You felt disheartened and pushed them away, turning back.
Qin Luo and Doctor You returned, greeted him, and then went with Liu Zheng to rent the small kitchen at the inn.
Since Qin Luo was constantly being monitored, Wan Yun was sent to tell Qin Xing about their agreed-upon plan, and then Qin Xian was sent to inform Qin Xian and Mu Feng.
Liu Zheng was responsible for informing Qin Liang and Qin Ling; everything was arranged perfectly.
Liu Zheng and Qin Luo made two large pots of fried dough cakes, and Qin Luo put one pot into her spatial storage.
After receiving the fried dough cakes, Wu Hua threw out five or six large silver ingots and gave them to Liu Zheng.
While chewing on the fried dough, it transmitted its voice to Liu Zheng in a babyish voice.
"Mwah, so delicious! Liu Zheng, this is a gift for you. Mwah, you can't use gold right now, so I'll give you silver for now. Mwah, when you can use gold later, I'll give you lots and lots of pretty gold jewelry. Mwah, mwah!"
Liu Zheng held a pile of silver ingots, both amused and exasperated, while Qin Luo watched her with a grin, holding another pot of fried dough.
"Auntie, just take it! It gave it to you because it likes you; it would be unhappy if you didn't accept it."
Liu Zheng quickly wrapped it up with the hem of her dress and bowed respectfully.
"Then I thank Lord Kang for his generous gift!"
Wu Hua was still engrossed in eating her fried dough sticks: "You're welcome! *smack smack*"
Liu Zheng and Qin Luo smiled as they carried the fried dough and silver into the room. Qin Liang, seeing the two enter, took the fried dough from Qin Luo's hand.
"Why did I suddenly decide to make fried dough sticks today? They smell so good!"
Liu Zheng closed the door before placing the silver ingots one by one on the table.
