After Shi Zairong helped Lin Feng pinch the corner of the quilt, he said in a commanding tone, "I can still handle these things by myself. Don't worry too much and go to bed early. I still have a lot of things to deal with. Don't worry, I haven't slept in my own bed for a long time. I won't wake you up suddenly in the middle of the night."
After saying this, Shi Zairong stood up and prepared to return to his study to deal with the pile of tasks that, for some reason, kept piling up no matter how hard he tried. He always felt that even if he didn't fight, he would eventually die from overwork.
"etc!"
"What's wrong?"
Lin Feng threw back the quilt, sat on the bed, and warned in a serious tone, "Your attitude today is very serious. What are you hiding from me? If you don't tell me now, you know the consequences when I find out."
Shi Zairong sighed helplessly. He would eventually know what he was supposed to know. He could hide something for a while, but not forever. "It's true that I've hidden something from you, but there's no need to rush to tell you right now. You should get some rest first. I'll definitely tell you tomorrow."
Lin Feng continued to warn: "I hope you are not lying to me."
"If I lied to you, I wouldn't be your brother." Shi Zairong was afraid of him. If he hadn't been afraid that he would get so angry that he would vomit blood if he told the news about Su Zhirou and Lin Zhenzhen, he would have told it long ago. Why did he have to hide it until now? He, Shi Zairong, was a recognized gentleman in South Vietnam. He didn't like to do bad things behind his back and deceive his childhood sweetheart.
Lin Feng fell back onto the pillow weakly, and looked at the beams and couldn't help but smile: "...during these years in Liang State, if you weren't at home, I might have rebelled or given up long ago."
Shi Zairong smiled and said, "I know I'm important. You should rest first and stop talking. You look really bad."
The next morning, Shi Zairong returned to his room early because he was worried about Lin Feng. Lin Feng was a natural, knowing that he would tell him something today, he would definitely get up early to wait. But when Shi Zairong arrived, the person on the bed was not only unresponsive but also cold. If he hadn't confirmed he still had a pulse, Shi Zairong would have thought he had died.
After hastily finding several quilts to cover Lin Feng, Shi Zairong hurried to my granary. In the past, these senior masters would have completely ignored him. Today, I don't know if it was just good luck or what, but when Shi Zairong asked for someone to treat his illness, Prajna suddenly appeared.
On the way back to the room, Shi Zairong saw that Prajna was in a good mood today and was talking to him, so he mentioned the matter of Huangfu Bin and his son, who he had asked them to help protect. When Prajna heard that the person she was supposed to protect was Huangfu Bin, she agreed to the matter very straightforwardly.
...After Shi Zairong saw that Prajna had examined Lin Feng thoroughly, he spoke up, "Senior, how is he?"
Prajna replied calmly, "No problem. This method of fighting poison with poison works quickly, but it also hurts the internal organs. Once he finishes the current medicine, we just need to replenish it. He's just sleepy, but you should ask how often he takes the medicine. If I'm not mistaken, this medicine is very powerful and can't be stopped. There's no need to worry about the time."
Shi Zairong said, "I understand. I'll call him up and ask him about it later. Thank you for making this trip."
Prajna smiled and said, "It's not a bother, it's just on the way. Actually, I just wanted to go find Huangfu Bin, but I just haven't figured out a good reason yet, haha."
...When Prajna entered the room, Huangfu Bin, who had been sitting upright, suddenly felt a little heavy for some reason.
When Prajna saw the chess pieces and board already prepared on the table, she couldn't wait to play a few games with Huangfu Bin. "I told you we'd meet. It's been a while since I played chess with you. You seem to be quite well prepared."
"Well, senior, I may not have much time to accompany you recently. If you don't mind, please accept this." As he spoke, Huangfu Bin handed over the precious chess manual he borrowed from Shi Zairong with slightly trembling hands.
From Prajna's expression, it was clear that his gift was very much to her liking: "...Well, the exquisite chess manual is a good thing, and it really suits me!"
Huangfu Bin saw that he had already started flipping through the book, so he quickly said, "Then please study it first, my father and I still have some things to deal with."
Prajna waved her hand slightly and said, "Well, just do your own thing and don't worry about me. I was also entrusted by someone to ensure your safety. I won't do anything unnecessary."
"Then I would like to thank you, Senior." Huangfu Xiong happened to see this scene when he came out of the inner room. His father actually bowed to a child and called him "Senior". Could it be that his mind was confused due to his busy schedule recently? "Father, why are you..."
Before Huangfu Xiong could finish his words, Huangfu Bin dragged him back to the inner room and whispered, "Don't judge a person by his appearance. This man is my savior. Don't be rude to others. Let it go this time. Remember to be respectful when you meet others next time. Got it?"
Huangfu Bin had already said this, so Huangfu Xiong didn't ask any more questions. He had no choice but to agree: "Okay, okay."
Huangfu Bin saw that he seemed to be calling him when he came out just now, so he changed the subject and said, "By the way, are all the things I asked you to prepare almost ready?"
Huangfu Xiong nodded and said, "Everything is ready. Should we start now? Should we notify the Grand Tutor and the others to come over?"
In fact, the father and son had already developed a rough idea of how to kill the Shengxi Gu, and were now waiting to formally test it on the Shengxi Gu. Their method was based on Huangfu Xiong's understanding of the Shengxi Gu. After all, Huangfu Xiong had raised the Shengxi Gu himself, so he had a pretty good grasp of its properties.
Huangfu Bin had originally planned to conduct the experiment as quickly as possible, but when he thought of what Lin Feng said yesterday, his brows furrowed. After thinking for a moment, he said, "...Let's wait a few days. Your uncle Ning should be back in Qinghe County by now. If what we've discovered is indeed harmful to Shengxi Gu, it will definitely affect the sub-Gu. For their safety, we should wait a little longer."
Huangfu Xiong had no objection. To be honest, he was also afraid that if they acted too quickly, Tianshu Tower would do something to hurt Huangfu Zhong. "Okay, I also hope they can bring Big Brother back safely."
