"No, I can't beat you."
Mu Ci had a look of rejection on her face. After realizing that she was temporarily safe, she sat by the fire to keep warm and didn't want to move at all.
"Woman, how come you are not challenging at all!" Xingzhou said angrily.
Mu Ci didn't take his words seriously at all, and at this moment, the little white snake that she had picked up just now suddenly crawled over and even came to her side.
Mu Ci glanced at it, and seemed to think of something. She picked up the little white snake and put it in her hand. Then, as if she wanted to prove something, she held it in her hand, stood up, and walked to Xingzhou.
Xingzhou looked depressed, sullen and irritable.
"What are you doing!"
He didn't look happy at all, but the moment he turned around, his pupils shrank and his face turned pale, exactly the same as when Wen Xiuqi saw the snake before.
"You...you throw it away!"
"Why? Are you scared?" Murcis remained unmoved.
"How...how is this possible? Anyway, throw this thing away first!" Xingzhou's face was still pale.
Seeing the genuine fear in his eyes, something flashed through Mu Ci's eyes. Then he pursed his lips, walked to the bushes beside the cave, and threw it in.
"Here, that's all." Mu Ci spread out his hands for him to see, looking innocent.
Xingzhou was watching her like this and felt so angry that his heart and lungs were about to explode.
He glared at Mu Ci fiercely.
"I'll remember you." Xingzhou was angry, staring at Mu Ci's eyes tightly, as if he wanted to remember her well, with unwilling resentment and annoyance.
Mu Ci watched him slowly close his eyelids and pass out.
Never mind him!
Based on Wen Xiuqi's reaction, she actually couldn't quite figure out what was going on with him, and what exactly the soul-leaving syndrome meant. Then she thought of the "Divine Doctor's Book" in her props column, and estimated that there would be relevant records on it. After all, it was something related to this world, and some related props would give a reasonable explanation.
Ignoring Wen Xiuqi who fainted again, Mu Ci directly took out the "Book of Miraculous Doctors" from the props list and flipped through it very quickly, looking directly for relevant descriptions of cold poison and soul-leaving syndrome.
After all, it is something given by the higher-ups, so it is quite reliable. Moreover, the book has such a magical title, but it can't even find a disease called cold poison, so forget about any rewards.
It records the origin of the cold poison disease. It was originally spread from Cangxia Kingdom, which was an enemy of Qingxia Kingdom. The terrain of that country is special. The medicinal materials for cold poison are difficult to grow and generally only Cangxia Kingdom can produce them. Could this be related to Wen Xiuqi's life experience?
Mu Ci thought for a moment and decided to write this information down in his little notebook.
People who have been infected with the cold poison cannot use their internal energy. If they use it even a little, the cold poison will gradually invade the body, from the internal organs to the blood. The cold poison will also cause the soul-leaving syndrome, which will amplify the negative emotions of the poisoned person. In extreme cases, the person will directly become an independent new conscious being and is very likely to take various extreme actions.
So Xingzhou is the new consciousness that Wen Xiuqi has created independently?
It seems that she cannot judge it with her inherent concepts and ideas. In this ancient world, all these strange poisons and snakes, as well as various martial arts, are really difficult to explain with common sense.
As for the treatment methods, some were indeed recorded above, but none of the required medicinal herbs had ever been heard of. Since the original owner, Qiu Muci, had learned martial arts in the mountains since he was a child, he had never heard of these rare medicinal herbs, such as Snow Mountain Ice Lotus, Fiery Red Fruit, Green Wood Dew, etc.
Forget it, I'll just write it down first. At least I have some clue. Mu Ci feels that she is still a long way from completing the task.
If we can't figure it out, we'll have to wait until this guy wakes up.
Mu Ci sighed, walked to the side of Wen Xiuqi, squatted down, mobilized the Qi in his body, and used the Flame Internal Energy to warm up the meridians in his body. This time it was for warming, not the direct forced transmission of internal energy like last time.
After waiting for an hour, Wen Xiuqi felt as if he was lying in an ocean of warmth. Every part of his body was warm. He had not felt so comfortable for many years, ever since he had been infected with the cold.
Wen Xiuqi opened his eyes lazily, but his eyes met Mu Ci's directly.
When Mu Ci saw that he had woken up, he withdrew his hand very decisively, sat down by the fire, and threw the clothes that he had dried earlier on him.
Wen Xiuqi pursed his lips, still a little confused. After a long while, he remembered what had happened before.
"You...he just woke up?" Wen Xiuqi thought about it and decided to ask.
"Yeah." Mu Ci replied.
Wen Xiuqi saw that she was really mediocre in her reaction and felt that something was wrong. He felt uneasy, but he still asked, "Did you confront him?"
"Hmm." Another bland sentence, almost making Wen Xiuqi depressed.
Wen Xiuqi asked again: "What did he say to you?"
"They said you were a crybaby, that you were terribly afraid of snakes, that you were weak, timid, and hypocritical. You were simply the reincarnation of the Black-Hearted Lotus." Mu Ci said this in a serious tone, and suddenly added, "By the way, the Black-Hearted Lotus refers to someone who is hypocritical and pretentious, and obviously has a completely black heart, but still wants to appear to be calm and composed."
"..." Wen Xiuqi wanted to curse.
"He, he's talking nonsense, don't believe it." Wen Xiuqi coughed a few times and said.
But he regretted it as soon as he said this. He froze for a moment, feeling like he had shot himself in the foot.
Mu Ci didn't care. She looked at Wen Xiuqi and said seriously, "If you explain to me what happened to you, I will believe you."
Her eyes were open, without the slightest sign of discomfort, as if she was just asking about a very ordinary matter and just wanted to know what was going on.
Wen Xiuqi looked at her for a long time before he walked over and sat opposite her. He picked up a small wooden stick beside him and casually fiddled with the fire. He looked at the flickering flames with a nonchalant look on his face.
Only by looking deeply into those eyes reflecting the firelight could one glimpse a hint of fear, as if they were afraid of something.
Mu Ci kept silent and listened to him.
"The soul-leaving syndrome is accompanied by the onset of cold poison. It might be because he caught a cold this time, coupled with the emotional excitement, that caused that guy to come out." Having said this, Wen Xiuqi raised his head and looked at Mu Ci opposite him with a hint of resentment on his face.
He found that he could not maintain his usual calm demeanor when facing this woman.
Mu Ci was speechless.
It wasn't like she intentionally scared him with the snake, so why is she blaming me?
Wen Xiuqi withdrew his gaze and continued to stir the fire, adding some firewood from time to time.
"He is an independent consciousness derived from my extreme negative emotions. He even named himself Xingzhou." At this point, Wen Xiuqi sneered, and there was a hint of coldness in his words, as if he was mocking himself, or something else.
"It's nothing, actually. That guy was out for a short time, so the impact is not particularly big. It's just that he is too irritable, and he has a desire to destroy inside, so he will use his internal force at any time. People who are infected with cold poison must not use their internal force, because it will gradually accelerate the coldness in the body and corrode the body bit by bit."
Wen Xiuqi spoke calmly, as if he was not talking about his own affairs.
No wonder!
Mu Ci thought about Xingzhou's previous actions and the words he had specifically warned her with, and suddenly she understood.
So, even if she transferred more than ten years of internal energy to him last time, Wen Xiuqi still couldn't use it, no matter how high his martial arts skills were.
"Not afraid?" Wen Xiuqi was speaking, and somehow he said this.
He stared at the woman opposite him, his body tense, as if he was concerned about something, but pretending not to care.
When Mu Ci heard him say this, she thought about how Qiu Mu Ci should react. Well... he should not be afraid, and she would not be afraid either.
"Is there anyone I'm afraid of? You really underestimate me!"
Mu Ci snorted coldly.
Wen Xiuqi was stunned for a moment. This answer made him a little overwhelmed.
"Besides being violent, that idiot is completely brainless. If he hadn't lost his inner strength, I would have beaten him to his knees and begged for mercy!"
Suddenly, the familiar voice appeared in his mind again, and Wen Xiuqi looked up at Mu Ci.
It felt like his internal energy was transmitting sound through the air, but judging from Qiu Muci's reaction, it seemed unconscious.
Wen Xiuqi couldn't figure it out, so he put it aside for the moment. However, the words just now made him want to laugh, but his body had already relaxed at some point, and the deep fear hidden in his eyes gradually dissipated.
"Well, I believe you."
She suppressed the cold poison for him, and although she still coveted his appearance, this could be ignored. Now she seemed to be normal, and in fact, the two of them could become good friends. Only she knew about the soul-leaving syndrome, and she seemed to be somewhat glad that she knew about it.
Wen Xiuqi suddenly smiled, looking directly at Mu Ci. The smile on his handsome and delicate face was different from before. Even his eyebrows and eyes seemed more lively and real.
It looked so beautiful in the light of the fire.
Mu Ci looked at him and a ding-dong sounded in his mind.
[Mission released: Hug the male protagonist Wen Xiuqi. Success will reward you with a memory fragment about the male protagonist's life experience. Failure will result in a random punishment. Please don't be careless! ]
Mu Ci: “…”
The strange missions appeared again. She thought that if they happened a few more times, she might become immune to them.
Mu Ci thought about it for a moment, considering how he should naturally and unpretentiously make this somewhat excessive little request to someone who hated him so much.
"Wen Xiuqi." Mu Ci called out hesitantly.
"Well, what's wrong?" Wen Xiuqi replied in a rare good mood.
"Your cold hasn't fully recovered yet, and you're still feeling a little cold. There's nothing to keep you warm in this cave except this fire. This princess can try her best to keep you warm." Mu Ci thought for a long time, and then spoke righteously and naturally.
There is a kind of coldness, which is called I think you are cold.
The smile on Wen Xiuqi's face froze instantly, and the corners of his eyebrows twitched violently.
“…”
In fact, this woman is not really suitable to be a confidant or a friend. To get along with her, he seems to need a good heart.
But he may not live long, so it's better not to find this woman to provoke him.
The author has something to say: I'm going to start updating a lot soon! Whoever stops me will be punished!
Haha, here is today's second update, it might be ten minutes late. Hehe.
Also, it’s summer now, and my dog has become very smart again. (It seems to have nothing to do with summer.)
The dog's nose is red, as if it is inflamed. My sister asked the doctor to buy a bottle of spray for it and apply the medicine on it daily (the dog was reluctant), so it got angry today.
My sister hadn't even come close with the medicine when it caught a glimpse of her from the corner of its eye. It took two steps back with its little paws without making a sound. My sister had just taken two steps forward when the dog suddenly ran away, running happily as if it was being chased by a tiger (Is this a bad analogy? Uh... save my life, sister, don't hit me~)
