Chapter 238 The Ghost King’s Bride (17)



"tomorrow."

It happened so quickly that he didn't even have time to prepare.

"Does this suit me?" His wardrobe was filled with nothing but black and white.

And he doesn't even have shoes. What if a sharp stone cuts his toe and it bleeds?

"These are not your problems to worry about. Just leave them to me. Now you have to promise me one thing. You have to go back to sleep."

"Okay." Xie Zhiyi turned and went downstairs. He didn't see the shadow approaching under his feet. He turned around and saw He Wenxiu sitting there rubbing his neck. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.

Just pretend you can't see it.

Anyway, he owes more than a little, and he can pay it back when he has the chance.

As he thought this, he walked much more briskly.

After taking the medicine, he slept soundly. When he looked in the mirror early in the morning, he saw that his cheeks had become fatter and his body looked much more energetic.

"Good morning, brother." Xie Kunning looked at himself in the mirror with satisfaction. He was getting more and more handsome.

"Brother, don't disturb He Wenxiu in the morning. He needs to have a good rest."

Xie Kunning's face darkened. If Xie Zhiyi had a physical form, he would have punched him twice. "He lives in our house, and all his food and drink are from us. Why are you still considering him?"

"At least he kept us alive."

Continuation? Not necessarily.

He only has seven days left to live, and every day he uses it is one day less. How can a small pill prolong his life?

If it can really be continued, the King of Hell will be off work soon.

"Brother..." Xie Zhiyi was about to speak, but was interrupted rudely by Xie Kunning. "Okay, I promise I won't bother him. I'm going to go find Wen Rong."

The bitch can't do anything, so I'm just eating her rice for nothing.

"Old Jin, Old Jin..."

Lao Jin showed up on time, his attitude humble. "What do you want from me, Master?"

"How's Wen Rong's alchemy going?"

Lao Jin's smile froze on his face. "She can't make pills, she can only make medicine."

"Go and hurry up. If it's not ready, there will be no food. Also, I'm hungry. Please prepare breakfast for me."

"Okay, wait a moment."

Breakfast was delivered by the hotel, and the originally hot food became lukewarm when it arrived at the castle.

Xie Kunning got angry just looking at the steak and yelled into the intercom. "Old Jin, who wants to eat steak so early in the morning? Let's get out of here and have Cantonese-style morning tea."

"Master never ate Chinese food before."

"I'm Chinese, what else can I eat if not Chinese food? Go make it again. If it's not satisfactory to me, pack up your things and get out of here right now."

Lao Jin was helpless. "Okay, Master, please wait a moment."

After another busy half an hour, Xie Kunning finally got to eat the shrimp dumplings as he wished.

After eating and drinking, he ran to the gate to check on the guards.

The gatehouse had become Wen Rong's private territory. After a vigorous workout last night, she couldn't get up in the morning.

No matter how hard Xie Kunning knocked on the door, the person inside was sleeping like a dead pig.

"Old Jin." Xie Kunning yelled into the intercom. "Go and call Wen Rong out."

"Yes, Master, please be patient."

This is outrageous. Why are you sleeping in the middle of the day?

The employees all knew that those who worked for money but made no contribution to the family slept peacefully. Those who didn't know would think the castle was Wen Rong's home.

Although Lao Jin arrived late, he called Wen Rong with a smile.

"Wake up, someone is looking for you."

"Who is it?" Wen Rong rubbed his eyes, his head was still groggy and his whole body felt weak and powerless.

"Old Jin." Butler Jin, Wen Rong's sleepiness was immediately scared away. "Why is he here?"

"Xie Kunning is here too, just outside the door."

What?

Wen Rong couldn't hold it anymore. The devil is here too?

"Butler Jin, what's the matter?" Wen Rong asked cautiously after picking up the phone.

"How dare you ask? Did you do what I told you yesterday?" Xie Kunning snatched the phone and yelled at it. "Medicine. Sister, why did you come to my house? To sleep?"

Wen Rong felt ashamed when she heard this.

"If you can't handle it today, get out of here."

"Master Xie, would you mind letting me have a word?" Wen Rong couldn't help herself. Even a clay figure would get angry, not to mention that she was Xie Kunning's savior. Wasn't it too wicked for him to treat her like this?

“Do you know how difficult it is to make medicine?”

Xie Kunning rolled his eyes. "How difficult can it be?"

"First, you have to clean the herbs, then dry them at low temperature. Slice them, and process them. It takes at least a week to complete."

"Stop, big sister, do you know how many days I have left to live? I only have seven. It will take you seven days to make the medicine. Will you feed me the medicine after I die?"

Xie Kunning criticized him without hesitation. "You know the time is urgent, and you still have time to sleep?"

"This... you have to give me time." Wen Rong held up three fingers. "At least three days. Don't bother me within three days. I don't want to be disturbed by anyone while I'm working."

"Okay, if you can't do it within three days, I'll kill you."

Xie Kunning regretted it now. If he had known earlier, he would not have made the bet with Zhiyi. If he had known Wen Rong was so unreliable, he should have chosen He Wenxiu.

At least He Wenxiu is very dedicated. Not only can he make medicine, he can even see the whole process.

People are most afraid of this.

One person is willing to give, while the other is perfunctory. Even a mentally retarded person can tell who is good to him.

Xie Kunning's favorability towards Wen Rong went straight to negative. If it weren't for the sake of prolonging his life, he wouldn't even think of setting foot inside the gate.

"Lao Jin, do you think Wen Rong is really good to me?"

"Of course, Master." Old Jin always sided with Wen Rong. No matter how good He Wenxiu was, he was still a man and not worthy of his Master.

"You're hopeless."

"Where are you going, young master?" Old Jin looked at Xie Kunning's departing back with an anxious look on his face.

"Go back and check your phone." What else are you doing here? Do you want to be bullied for no reason?

"Young Master, it's better for you not to have any contact with Mr. He." Ever since he got together with He Wenxiu, the young master has become a bad person.

"None of your business." He knew his limits.

Xu Jing did not slack off and used witchcraft to make a substitute doll.

As night fell, Xie Zhiyi arrived as expected.

After seeing the substitute doll, he couldn't take his eyes off it. "What's the use?"

"I'll stay here in your place. Drop a little blood here." Xu Jing pointed to the center of the substitute doll's eyebrows. Xie Zhiyi understood and bit his fingertips to drop a drop of blood on it.

A miracle happened. He saw a person who looked exactly like him come to life, even with the same expression.

He looked at the double curiously and even reached out to touch it. Even the body was warm. This technology was amazing.

"He can take your place for one night, and you have to be back after daybreak. So we have to hurry."

How to get out?

There are surveillance cameras everywhere outside, and leaving is harder than climbing to the sky.

Xu Jing smiled knowingly and held out his hand. "Give me your hand."
