Chen Lin's eyes flashed. "I didn't expect you to be leading that team. It's all Chu San's fault for chasing me and Chen Lin. If she hadn't exposed my possession of a divine weapon and used Chu San's immense strength to imprison me, how could I have ended up like this? I really didn't mean to kill my mother."
Zhao Changliu had a painful expression on his face. "I know you're not that kind of person, otherwise I wouldn't have taken the initiative to ask you to marry me. If only I were at home, I could protect you and avoid all the crises you've encountered along the way."
Shen Lin hugged his arms and cried, seeming very moved.
"So, Xiaolin, please hand over the artifact, and we will return to Youzhou together. Even without the artifact, with my current military merits, I can still give you and Xiaochuan a good life."
"Can you help me get revenge and kill Zhou Jiaojiao?" Shen Lin asked gritting her teeth.
"..." Zhao Changliu hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take action against her when I get the chance. She's just a weak woman, so it's easy to attack her. But I may not be able to defeat Chu Chengshan, so I can only use other methods."
"You're an official, he's a commoner, and the situation is so chaotic right now. I heard there's an epidemic in the capital. If he gets infected, he'll die." Shen Lin was goading him implicitly, "As long as we kill Zhou Jiaojiao and Chu San, my revenge will be avenged. Then we can go to Youzhou and use the artifact to gain General Xie's support and protection, and things will get better for you."
It has to be said that Shen Lin's words touched Zhao Changliu's heart.
A conflicted look appeared on his face, and he looked down at her. "Xiao Lin, you're right, but I must have a reason to hand over the artifact for now. Otherwise, we won't be able to leave Yuzhou and will be stopped by Mo Zhizhou. I have too few soldiers, and the other party already knows you have the artifact and has made preparations. There's no way I can escape like you did before."
"But if I took it, it would be different. I would say I was taking it back to report to General Xie. At most, he would arrange for someone to go back with me and take some credit, but he wouldn't dare to actually stop me."
Shen Lin was somewhat tempted, and didn't want to die. After struggling for a long time, she gritted her teeth and said, "I also want to give you the artifact, but I don't know how to take it off..."
"How did you get the artifact before?" Zhao Changliu asked curiously.
Shen Lin took out a jade bracelet from her hand: "This is the jade bracelet that my mother left to me before she died. Because it is not valuable, my stepmother did not take it away, so I can get married with it smoothly."
"I accidentally dropped a drop of blood on it, and suddenly a spatial artifact appeared."
Zhao Changliu reached out and took the jade bracelet, but couldn't see anything special about it after looking at it. Chen Lin took the initiative to let him drop a drop of blood on it.
"Aren't you afraid that I will steal your magic weapon?" Zhao Changliu hesitated to speak.
Chen Lin smiled and said, "I believe you won't, Changliu. Besides you, I don't know who else I can trust in this world."
Zhao Changliu was silent for a long time before he sighed and rubbed Shen Lin’s head: “Xiao Lin, you have suffered.”
"I originally wanted to gather more food, gold, and silver, then go to Youzhou to find you and provide you with these things. Then, you can use these things to rise higher and higher, and your official career will become smoother and smoother..."
"I didn't expect it to turn out like this. It's all Zhou Jiaojiao's fault!" Shen Lin gritted her teeth.
After Zhao Changliu comforted her, he cut a wound on his finger and dripped water on the jade pendant. The jade pendant actually lit up, and then Shen Lin felt a heart-wrenching pain.
She fell to the ground and screamed.
Zhao Changliu was startled and hurriedly tried to comfort her. At this moment, he suddenly found that there seemed to be something extra in his body. He looked down and found that the jade pendant in his palm was actually worn on his wrist and disappeared. He only needed to think about it and it would come out.
"What's going on?"
At this time, Mo Congwu, who had been waiting outside, rushed in with the yamen runners. Seeing Shen Lin lying on the ground with a pale face, he was shocked and hurried over to feel her breath.
"Hurry, come quickly and wake her up!" Mo Congwu gave the order with a serious face.
He looked at Zhao Changliu and asked in a deep voice, "Master Zhao, what's going on?"
"I have already done it." Zhao Changliu looked at Shen Lin who was sent away for medical treatment with a complicated expression, then turned around and said seriously.
Mo Congwu's eyes widened in surprise, "Really?"
"Yes, it's true." Zhao Changliu said, and he transformed the things in the space. He found that this space was a little unstable and the size inside was not very large. "This artifact seems to be partially broken. It is only the size of a yard and can hold about 20,000 to 30,000 kilograms of grain."
"But this artifact is a bit unstable. I have a feeling that if I'm not careful, the food inside will easily leak out."
Mo Congwu was still very interested in the artifact after hearing this, but he was not so excited anymore: "So there is a flaw. I was wondering why when Chen Lin was confronting us outside the city, the object in the artifact suddenly fell out and she was screaming beside her..."
"Then Lord Zhao, can you let me see this artifact?"
Zhao Changliu paused for a moment, then took out the bracelet on his own initiative and asked Mo Congwu to try the method he had just experimented with. However, this time, Mo Congwu's head and Zhao Changliu also began to hurt. In the end, Mo Congwu failed and was unsuccessful.
Afterwards, Mo Congwu simply found many other people to try together and see if they could also bind it. After experiments with hundreds of people, only a few of them could bind the space.
Try this once. Anyone who has successfully bound something will suffer a backlash when it is snatched away. The backlash will be light for some people and heavy for others.
When Mo Congwu saw this, he didn't dare to try again. He just felt a pain in his head.
When Zhou Jiaojiao met Mo Congwu again, she was coming to ask Doctor Liu about the treatment of epidemic diseases with her medical skills.
"Doctor Liu, I just have a headache. It feels like a tearing pain from a needle." Mo Congwu said, covering his head.
Imperial Physician Liu was examining him when he saw Zhou Jiaojiao coming over and immediately waved to her.
"Jiaojiao, didn't I teach you the art of acupuncture before? It's just right for you to come over and give Lord Mo a few needles so that I can see if you have good skills."
Recently, after Doctor Liu discovered Zhou Jiaojiao's talent, he taught her everything he knew. In addition to taking courses in the space during the night, Zhou Jiaojiao also followed Liu Yu's medical skills during the day. Her medical skills have passed the intermediate level and are progressing to the advanced level.
Hearing this, she walked over, took the golden needle, felt Mo Congwu's pulse, and then said, "Hey, Master Mo, has your brain nerves been attacked by some force? You are suffering from the aftereffects of the injury."
