Sang Ning smiled, "That's called 'all's fair in war'."
Before today, Li Wenze had never heard of the phrase "all's fair in war," nor had the viewers in the live stream, but that didn't stop them from knowing what the phrase meant.
[What a brilliant tactic! In the arena of combat, as long as no one is killed, any means are legal.]
That makes sense, but the show's rules state that Sang Ning isn't allowed to use the name "Drunken Dream."
[Who told you she used Drunken Dream? Li Wenze is wide awake; he doesn't look like he's about to sleep.]
Li Wenze was indeed very energetic and showed no signs of drowsiness, but he felt unwell all over.
What did you just use?
He looked at Sang Ning warily, as if to say, "If you don't give me a satisfactory answer, I'm not done with you."
"Laughing Powder".
Sang Ning looked at him, keeping track of the time in her mind as she said, "I didn't violate the program's rules. Laughing Powder and Drunken Dream are two completely different drugs."
What are the effects of "Laughing Powder"?
As a trial participant, Li Wenze genuinely didn't want to ask, but he had a bad feeling that if he didn't find out the truth, he would be in big trouble.
"Don't worry, it won't hurt anyone, it's just meant to make people feel good."
Sang Ning said calmly. Li Wenze's bad premonition grew stronger and stronger. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly couldn't help but feel happy.
Then, to the astonishment of the audience, he began to laugh.
Sang Ning watched with great interest as his smile turned into laughter, and then into uncontrollable raucous laughter, nodding in satisfaction.
"The effect is good, even a little better than I expected."
Sure enough, even if the pure, natural, aged Chinese medicinal herbs that have not been contaminated in the slightest are damaged during the harvesting process, their medicinal effects are stronger than those of the same age in her native world.
audience,"···"
Li Wenze, "!!!"
Holy crap, is this guy a devil?
Didn't you see how hard he (Li Wenze) was trying to smile?
Shouldn't we seize this opportunity to eliminate people and free them up as soon as possible?
"You, you're laughing...you don't have any martial virtue..."
Li Wenze, who was talking and laughing, suddenly felt like he was about to die. He looked at Sang Ning with a mournful expression and suppressed the urge to burst out laughing, saying, "I...I admit defeat!"
Sang Ning's eyes lit up instantly. "Are you sure?"
"Um!"
When you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. If he didn't admit defeat, he was afraid he'd laugh himself to death.
I never knew that laughing could be such a painful thing. I have a feeling that from today onwards, he's going to develop facial paralysis.
Sang Ning was completely unaware of Li Wenze's thoughts. Seeing him admit defeat, she went straight forward, took out a bamboo jar, opened it, scooped out a spoonful of peach-pink powder, and put it to his mouth.
"Open your mouth!"
Li Wenze instinctively opened his mouth, but Sang Ning flicked her wrist and stuffed a spoonful of powder into his mouth.
He gulped it down, and the powder melted in his mouth; the taste was surprisingly good.
It has a faint, indescribable fragrance that smells particularly pleasant.
Immediately afterwards, a refreshing coolness spread from my mouth and rushed to the top of my head. Instantly, the joy was like a raging fire meeting a torrential downpour, refreshing and exhilarating.
The fact that he didn't become depressed directly shows his strong will; he would never laugh again, and he never wanted to laugh again in his life.
They've really had enough of laughing.
"Alright, it's time to keep your promise to accept defeat."
Sang Ning urged him leisurely, and Li Wenze sighed, sat cross-legged on the ground, opened the bracelet page, and placed his finger on the withdrawal button, saying, "Before I withdraw from the competition, I have a question I'd like you to answer for me."
"you say."
Sang Ning took the rabbit he had hunted and, without any hesitation under his glare, put it into his basket, saying confidently, "Anyway, you're leaving soon to go back to the ship, so there's plenty of food to eat, one rabbit won't make a difference."
That's true, but—
"Do you think it's appropriate for you to take my spoils so brazenly?"
"suitable."
Sang Ning smiled and said, "I won against you, so this rabbit is now my trophy. Is there anything wrong with that logic?"
"No problem!"
"The rabbit is your trophy, you are my trophy, and if we round it up, the rabbit is my trophy."
According to this logical chain, that is indeed the case.
Oh well, it's just a rabbit. Let her have it. Anyway, no one on the ship will cook rabbit for him.
As for himself, really, if he had nothing else to eat but rabbits, he wouldn't eat them.
I'm tired of eating it, and more importantly, it doesn't taste good.
What did you feed me?
His gaze fell on her basket, and Li Wenze hesitated before asking, "I feel it has a refreshing and invigorating effect, making you instantly awake. Do you have any extra? If so, could you sell me a jar?"
"No extras, not for sale!"
Sang Ning resolutely refused. This was all she had. It was too difficult to gather all the necessary ingredients for this product. She had only managed to collect enough ingredients from last year to make this small amount.
She'd be useless to him if she sold him; she'd have to keep the medicine for herself, since it could be used as an antidote and to refresh her mind.
“I’m willing to pay a high price; I really need this.”
"I need it too."
Sang Ning said seriously, "Don't even think about me using drugs. Withdraw from the competition now, or I won't hesitate to give you another dose of crying powder."
"What the hell?"
Is that what he meant by "crying and whining"?
