At that moment, Su Zhirou knew what had slipped away from her mind when she woke up. Was it her own memories from the past? Who was this person before her, and what was their relationship? Who was she, and what kind of person was she before she woke up from this dream?
Tang Chen said: "It's okay, it doesn't matter if you can't remember, I will tell you who you are."
Su Zhirou asked tentatively: "Can I trust you?"
Tang Chen smiled slightly and said softly, "You have a butterfly birthmark on your left shoulder. Although it doesn't prove anything, since I know it, it means I know you very well, doesn't it?"
"...Hmm." Actually, she couldn't remember whether she really had the birthmark she mentioned. She just didn't know why, but she had a strange feeling that the person talking to her gave her an indescribable sense of trust, as if she would never deceive herself.
Hong Yu was stunned when she heard Tang Chen say this. Knowing Tang Chen, and based on her personality, she should have said something like, "It's okay, everything is over, and you will be greeted by a brand new you."
The doctor beside him heard that Tang Chen wanted to help this woman who might have lost her memory regain her memory, so he quickly reminded her, "I think this girl's condition is not very stable yet. If there is no rush, you should talk to her slowly. She needs to rest now and shouldn't think too much."
Tang Chen then asked: "Then, if I move her now, it should be okay, right?"
The doctor pressed the issue, "That depends on whether it's a small move or a long journey."
Tang Chen thought about the distance between Qingliang Valley and here, and said, "It's not a long journey. I can walk back slowly. It should be fine, right?"
The doctor nodded slightly and suggested, "It's fine, but it's best to rest for a few more days. Her health has just started to improve, and she might have a fever again in the next two days, so it's best to stay and observe her."
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, doctor."
Tang Chen said that if that was the case, she would just go back later. Wang Qin was there to take care of the palace affairs, and the two children had a wet nurse by their side, so they wouldn't be hungry or cold. They were also protected by the Qilin Guards, so they were very safe. The autumn chill should be arriving soon, and with him helping her, returning a few days later would mean less worry on the way.
The doctor saw that there was nothing for him to do here, so he bowed and said, "Madam, you are too polite. Master, if there is nothing else, I will go back first."
Shi Zairong nodded slightly and said, "Well, thank you for your hard work."
After Tang Chen talked to Su Zhirou for a while, he saw that she still looked very tired, so he didn't say anything else. After feeding her some porridge, he quietly stayed by her side. After watching Su Zhirou fall asleep, he quietly left.
As soon as he went out, he saw Hong Yu sitting on the big tree in front of the door waiting for him. When Hong Yu saw Tang Chen coming out, she jumped down from the tree and said bluntly: "Looking at the way you looked just now, it seemed like you really hoped that she could remember something. This seems a little different from the you I know."
Tang Chen smiled helplessly and explained, "She should be very clear about the internal affairs of Qinghe County. I can't do anything about it. However, I won't force her. Her confused look now is a bit like when I first met her. Although she is a little confused now, she is very clear."
Hong Yu was a little surprised. It turned out that Tang Chen was trying to help Wang Yanzhou. However, this might not be good for the amnesiac. "Shi Zairong said that when Su Zhirou first came, he felt that this person was either your friend or your enemy. Based on your temperament, he felt that this person was more like your enemy..."
Before Hong Yu could finish, Tang Chen added, "So, he actually wants to use her, right?"
Hong Yu just smiled and didn't answer the question. He just said, "We already have the antidote. The next step is to go to Qinghe County."
Tang Chen asked in confusion. Qinghe and the others were already on their way back to Qingliang Valley. Besides Lin Feng and the innocent people in the government jail, there didn't seem to be anyone else worth visiting right now. "What do you mean?"
Hong Yu explained, "Uncle Bin said they discovered a large amount of puppet silk flowing into Qinghe County on the black market, so they deduced that the headquarters of the living dead should be Qinghe County."
Tang Chen was shocked. Was Xiahou Qing so confident in himself? She had thought he would hide the Shengxi Gu and Huangfu Zhong somewhere unknown. Unexpectedly, he was hiding it openly in Qinghe County, as if to say, "Come and look for it! There's a big prize for finding it!" "So, when you find the Shengxi Gu, what will you do with it?"
Hong Yu looked up at the clear blue sky and said, "If it were Huangfu Zhong, he should be taken back for questioning, or made to apologize here. As for the Gu worm, its growth has deviated from its original trajectory and purpose. No matter how precious it is, it will inevitably be destroyed. Furthermore, if the Shengxi Gu doesn't die, the living dead will inevitably disappear."
Tang Chen continued, "I remember you said before that insects like the Shengxi Gu, like your bloodthirsty Gu, can't be killed by ordinary methods, right?"
Hong Yu replied, "Yes, so we have to see if the person who knows it best can find a way. If Huangfu Xiong can't find a way to kill it in the short term, then we can only take the risk and bring it back to the Huangfu family and hand it over to the head of the family for disposal."
Tang Chen continued to ask, "What if your family head can't do anything about it?"
Hong Yu chuckled and explained, "If you say that the family master has no way to deal with insects like the Bloodthirsty Gu or the Life and Death Gu, then I believe it. Although the Life and Breathing Gu is also a rare treasure, it's not to that extent."
Hearing Hong Yu's confident words, Tang Chen breathed a sigh of relief. "So, we're not in dire straits yet. At least, as long as we can control the situation well, the thing we fear most won't happen."
Hong Yu shook his head slightly. Talking about it is always much easier than doing it. "It's mainly because the Patriarch needs to see the Gu worm before he can come up with a specific countermeasure. It's okay for him, but on the way back with the Shengxi Gu, no one knows what unforeseen events might happen. If we can save one life, we'll save one."
Tang Chen nodded in agreement and said, "That's quite the truth."
