After this incident, Su Jingshuo finally learned to remain calm.
When facing Xiao Lingling, he also began to become silent, not saying much, not asking many questions, and not interfering much.
Little Bell was very satisfied with this.
After all, she didn't want to be locked up in this tent.
However, dinner was destined to be another torture for Su Jingshuo.
Because Xiao Lingdang asked for spicy dishes, three out of the four dishes in front of her were spicy, and only one was very refreshing.
The spicy taste is very pungent, but also very fragrant. Especially for someone like Su Jingshuo who is forced to eat three meals of porridge and side dishes a day, this is a complete mental torture.
Coupled with the constant exclamations and clicking sounds of the little bell, he regretted extremely why he had left the little bell in his tent.
It’s not so easy to get rid of people now.
This is a typical case of it being easier to invite a god than to send him away.
Seeing that Xiao Lingdang had replaced all the meals with desserts, Su Jingshuo could only drink tasteless chicken soup to fill his stomach.
After Xiao Lingling had eaten and drunk enough, he came to check his wound and prepare to change the dressing while burping.
"Hey, come here, let me check you out and change the medicine. If nothing's wrong, I can rest early.
You're fine, you can sleep whenever you want, but I can't. I heard we'll pass by a valley tomorrow where there's a hot spring resort.
I plan to go for a stroll tomorrow, so I'll set off early to cover the distance, and then set up camp early. I'll be back soon."
She was not going there to play, but she had heard from her master that there was a precious medicinal herb in the valley over there that could not be found anywhere else and was a specialty of that valley.
She had wanted to transplant a few before, and since she was passing by this time, of course she had to go.
And who knows, it might come in handy later!
Su Jingshuo raised his eyebrows, but did not stop her. "Do you want to arrange for a few people to go with you?"
Little Bell shook her head. "No, the owner of the villa doesn't like to see too many strangers. Besides, she's an old friend of my master, so she won't be in any danger."
As Xiao Lingling spoke, she removed the cotton cloth from Su Jingshuo's body, revealing a sutured wound underneath that looked somewhat hideous.
"Not bad, it's healing well. It hasn't gotten worse, and the wound is still relatively dry. I'll just give you a quick clean and reapply the medicine."
It was the first time that Su Jingshuo saw his wound. He didn't expect it to be like this. He was stunned for a moment.
"Will this leave a scar?"
Little Bell was surprised. "Of course I will, but as a man, are you afraid of getting scars?"
Su Jingshuo pursed his lips and said nothing.
He was not actually afraid, but rather disgusted. These scars would always remind him of his previous stupid behavior, and that feeling was definitely not good.
Seeing him like this, Xiao Lingdang raised an eyebrow and said, "It's not that there is no solution. My brothers and I have developed an ointment that can remove scars. As long as you persist in applying two bottles, these scars will disappear.
How about trying it? I can give you a friendly price: two cans for a total of 1,000 taels. How about that? That's a very fair price.
I also know that you are a regular customer. If it were someone else, this bottle would be priced at one thousand taels!"
Xiao Lingling looked like a profiteer, and the smile on her face was tinged with flattery.
But it's not offensive at all, on the contrary it feels quite cute.
Su Jingshuo smiled and said, "Okay! If it really works, I'll buy a few more cans!"
Xiao Lingling's eyes lit up, and she immediately took out two bamboo jars as big as her fist from the medicine box. "Okay, okay! Come on, hand over the money and the goods!"
Su Jingshuo couldn't move now, so he could only point to the brocade box beside his pillow and said, "You can use this as collateral. You can ask me for the banknote later."
That is my identity jade pendant. If I lose it, I will be severely punished even if I am a prince, so you can rest assured."
I knew a little about this little bell, so I opened the box, picked up the jade pendant, and saw a jade plate with the word "Shuo" engraved on the corner of the back, so I put it away immediately.
"Okay, okay, then don't forget to pay the money to redeem it. The price might go up over time.
Come on, I put the things in for you."
Little Lingling put the two bamboo jars back into the brocade box, and she smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.
Don’t ask why such a good thing is packed in a bamboo jar, because that thing is not valuable at all.
These are all very common medicinal herbs, which can achieve the effect of scar removal after being mixed in a certain proportion. But in order to enhance the effect, Xiao Lingdang just added some spirit pool water into it.
She gave a lot of this stuff to Huo Qiuyue and others, and some rich ladies also came to her to buy it, but the price was generally around one hundred taels.
This is all bloody profit.
After all, the cost is only two taels of silver.
Of course, the effect is obvious to all. For smaller scars, only the size of a soybean is needed at a time, and they can be removed completely in half a month.
Su Jingshuo's wounds were too big and too many, so he needed two cans.
The beating of the bamboo stick made Xiao Lingling smile, as if basking in the spring breeze. She even applied the medicine to Su Jingshuo more gently, hardly hurting him.
At night, everyone was awake, even Su Jingshuo couldn't sleep well. He was always worried, afraid that what happened that night would happen again.
But strangely, the night was very quiet. Apart from the occasional wolf howls, there was nothing else.
The howling of wolves is nothing new. After all, this is in the mountains and forests, and it is normal to see wolves.
But the consequence of being alert all night was that when they were preparing to set off in the morning, Su Jingshuo was sleeping like a dead pig. No matter how they called him, he wouldn't wake up and he didn't even eat breakfast.
After Xiao Lingdang found out, she couldn't help but pout, "Serves him right. Doesn't he know what's happening to him? He's lucky to be alive now."
But after losing so much blood, he must be physically weak and lacking energy. If he doesn't take good care of himself and stays up all night, he still thinks he is the same as before.
Okay, don’t worry about him. Just send the person to the carriage and prepare to continue your journey. Just follow the route you decided before.
The speed is still as fast as yesterday. With me here, he will be fine, don't worry! "
As she spoke, Xiao Lingling got on the carriage first. The guards looked at each other, and finally had no choice but to do as she said and carried the person onto the carriage.
Although Su Jingshuo will not wake up for a while according to his current physical condition, safety is still the most important thing.
As usual, Xiao Lingling knocked the person unconscious and sent him directly to the space, where he had the entire carriage to himself.
