Lin Ying's eyes widened: "You mean me? I'm in your 'you'?"
Zhao Qinghuai replied matter-of-factly, "Of course! You can't just disappear in front of others, can you?"
Lin Ying laughed: "You underestimate me, don't you?"
Zhao Qinghuai was confused, and then the next second he fainted.
Lin Ying yawned, then led Zhao Qinghuai out of the space.
The next day, Zhao Qinghuai suddenly sat up straight and looked at his hands in disbelief, finding that he had no internal energy at all.
"Don't worry, you'll be recovered in another hour. Do you still think I'm weak as a chicken?"
This was the first time Zhao Qinghuai had ever felt this way. He looked at Lin Ying in disbelief: "How did you do that?"
Lin Ying smiled confidently: "You were making plans on the way back, and I naturally did my research as well. People die for money, birds die for food. Although I haven't experienced the ways of the martial world, I know it's chaotic. If I don't have some means of self-protection, I'll consider applying to return to the compound when I come back."
Now that they have their own little family, Lin Ying naturally doesn't want to go back to the compound.
To others, life in the compound seemed much better, but Lin Ying felt it was full of trouble, with eyes constantly watching her. There were always some people who couldn't have it easy themselves and didn't want others to have it easy either. If she could, Lin Ying naturally wouldn't want to go back to the compound.
So throughout the journey, Lin Ying kept thinking about how to protect herself and the children.
It was the method of entering the secret room that gave her the inspiration.
When traditional Chinese medicine is combined with the Five Elements, it can indeed confuse many people.
However, Lin Ying wasn't thinking about traditional Chinese medicine formations; she was thinking about formations and poisons.
Perhaps because her grandfather had never taught her how to use poison, she was very interested in it. With the books in her spatial dimension, plus the insect-repelling pills she had made over the past two years, she was now quite adept at using poison, though not exceptionally skilled, and capable of making certain secret medicines and muscle-relaxing powders.
Of course, for ordinary people, a simple remedy can solve the problem. However, if you encounter a master like Zhao Qinghuai, you'll need some mystical techniques.
Of course, all of this stemmed from Zhao Qinghuai's lack of vigilance towards her.
Therefore, it will be difficult for her to succeed again in the next round.
Since she had already agreed to teach the children martial arts, Lin Ying simply asked Haoyu for leave again and then began to work with Zhao Qinghuai to improve the physical condition of the four children.
Every morning, each person receives a bowl of medicinal liquid, and every evening, each person receives a medicinal bath.
Zhao Qinghuai couldn't help but gasp in astonishment: "Are you trying to marinate the children?"
Lin Ying rolled her eyes: "This is made according to an ancient formula. Not only can it make you immune to all poisons, but it is also beneficial for strengthening your bones and muscles and cultivating internal strength."
Zhao Qinghuai looked on with envy: "No, wife, why don't you let me use such a good thing?"
Lin Ying said irritably, "You already have profound internal strength, yet you're still competing with the children for these things. Besides, this prescription is tailored to the children's constitutions, so it won't be as effective for you. Don't even think about it."
Zhao Qinghuai pouted and muttered, "Well, that's why I'm thinking of becoming stronger so I can better protect you all."
Lin Ying smiled, walked over and patted his shoulder: "You're already very capable, but it's never a bad thing to learn more skills. If you really want to improve your physique, I'll do some research later and see if there's a method that suits you."
And so, the days passed, and under the combined treatment of medicine and baths, the children grew stronger and more energetic. Even Shuanzi, who had been rather thin, started to gain weight, his face becoming chubby and incredibly cute.
Haoyu is even more noticeable. Before, he would be out of breath after doing some slightly strenuous exercise, but now, following Zhao Qinghuai to learn self-defense skills, his movements are becoming more and more agile, and his strength is also constantly increasing. He is already showing the appearance of a little man.
Although Er Ya and Liu Zi are young, they exercise with their older brothers and are much better physically than other children their age. They are always jumping around and full of energy.
Even the two tigers, because Liu Zi and Er Ya would always have them bathe after their baths, have grown even taller. They definitely look formidable.
Perhaps because Zhao Qinghuai was at home, no one came to cause them any trouble.
Afterwards, the military personnel came and installed a telephone at Lin Ying's home. Zhao Qinghuai's vacation ended, and he began going to the military base every day.
Lin Ying's car became Zhao Qinghuai's mode of transportation. Every morning, he would drive Haoyu to class, and then he would drive to the military base.
Lin Ying then learned that the original special forces unit had been disbanded after the previous mission failed. Except for Zhao Qinghuai, everyone else had been assigned to various teams.
Therefore, Zhao Qinghuai's current status is quite awkward.
After learning the news, Lin Ying even teased Zhao Qinghuai, asking him if he was so unwilling to go back because it was embarrassing.
Zhao Qinghuai glared at Lin Ying helplessly and said, "Stop teasing me. The situation was complicated at the time, and there was nothing we could do about disbanding them. But I believe that one day, our country will re-establish special forces."
Lin Ying smiled and said, "I also believe that day will come. But what exactly are you responsible for in the army now?"
Zhao Qing replied, "Right now, my main job is to assist in training new recruits, passing on my combat experience to them so they can avoid some pitfalls. But occasionally, I'll also participate in some routine missions to accumulate combat merits." Lin Ying and Zhao Qinghuai both knew that what Zhao Qinghuai lacked wasn't experience, nor combat merits. What he lacked was opportunity.
Lin Ying didn't believe Zhao Qinghuai's "routine task" at all.
