Hu Laita soaked in the wooden barrel, feeling the energy in the water. The lost true energy was recovered extremely slowly, causing all the pores on his body to open up.
The comfort of bathing in the spring breeze almost made him fall asleep. This must be the reason why Cheng Qiao was chosen by the higher-ups, because she could heal the wounds of those with special abilities.
Looking at the water that had turned into a pool of black, Hu Laita suddenly felt regretful. He should have washed himself first before taking a bath. What a waste of the water.
Cheng Qiao didn't care at all. The water was just dirty. It could still be used to irrigate the land and make the crops grow well.
Cheng Qiao went to the kitchen. It was already late and it was time to cook. There was more food than she could finish in her own space, but Ye Xiaolin and Uncle Sloppy still had to eat.
She directly used the space water to cook rice and vegetables. In order to protect her, the sloppy uncle got himself covered with bruises. So what if she gave him the space water
Hu Laita felt a little awkward when he put on Li Huan's clothes. In fact, Li Huan's figure was not small, but his clothes looked a little short on Hu Laita.
"Uncle Sloppy, I'll ask Aunt Wang to make you two sets of cotton-padded jackets."
Hu Laita shook his head. Actually, he had a military uniform, but in his position, it would be safer not to wear it. Since Cheng Qiao wanted to make clothes for him, he might as well do it.
"Cheng Qiao, listen to me. Go back to Hexi with the little troublemaker in a few days. There are people from our organization there. They will protect you. I will take this person to the capital and let the organization pry open his mouth."
Cheng Qiao nodded repeatedly. These bad guys were able to steal our country's intelligence, but we are a country of etiquette, so of course we must repay kindness with courtesy and tooth for tooth.
A big bowl of pork dumplings came out of the pot, and Cheng Qiao also made some space-boiled chicken soup. Hu Laica's nose kept turning and his Adam's apple was sliding up and down.
"You guys eat first. I'll take this bowl of dumplings and chicken soup to Li Huan."
Hu Laita nodded repeatedly but his hands didn't stop moving. The dumplings were so delicious and the chicken soup tasted so good.
"Hmm... Comrade Xiaolin, do you know what is added to this soup? Why does it taste so... fresh?"
Ye Xiaolin also took a bite. He had the same taste when he was having dinner at Ye Jun's uncle's house. He asked his uncle about it at the time, and his uncle smiled and told him to just eat more and not to ask anything else.
Now he understood that all these foods were made by Cheng Qiao, and they must have been made using some treasure from her medical heritage.
"I don't know either. It's the first time I've eaten something so delicious."
Ye Xiaolin lied guiltily. He didn't want Cheng Qiao to reveal too much. Cheng Qiao was his uncle's apprentice, which was equivalent to his sister.
Hu Laita curled his lips. He could tell at a glance that Comrade Ye Xiaolin was lying. Well, this was not a good habit. However, Comrade Ye Xiaolin was very good. He took the blame on behalf of his father. It was a life-threatening mission. He admired him very much.
Cheng Qiao entered her room and saw Li Huan lying on the kang. She couldn't help laughing. She forgot that a person cannot soak in water for a long time, otherwise how would he eat, drink, defecate and urinate.
"By chance, everything goes well."
"It's OK. Eat something first. Don't soak during the day, or you'll get swollen."
Li Huan nodded. He really felt that he was swollen and his whole body had gained weight. Now he was lying on the hot kang. Although he still felt bitterly cold, it was much better than yesterday.
"Is it still cold? How is it colder than yesterday?"
Cheng Qiao placed her fingers on Li Huan's pulse and carefully felt the changes in it. Compared to yesterday, the pulse was indeed much stronger.
"It's still a little cold, but it's much better than yesterday."
Li Huan recalled how his whole body was frozen and he couldn't move. The feeling of suffocation still makes him feel scared.
"Wait until the little red head wakes up, and then I'll give you one more suck. This cold poison should be gone."
"Well, even if the little red head doesn't wake up, I can soak it once a day."
"Don't do that again. You knew I could hide in the treasure, but you still stood in front of me."
"You forgot, right? As long as I'm here, I won't let you get hurt."
Cheng Qiao felt so warm inside that she leaned gently on Li Huan's chest, listening to his heart beating.
"Coincidentally, it's great to have you."
"Yeah, me too. You take a nap first. I'll go do something."
"Can you tell me what's going on? Is it dangerous?"
"It's not dangerous. I will give him a taste of his own medicine."
Li Huan understood. Seeing Cheng Qiao go out, he put on his cotton jacket and sat up. He crossed his legs and clasped his hands tightly. He tried to use the breathing method that Hu Laita gave him and slowly began to breathe.
Cheng Qiao walked to the backyard, entered the space directly, came to the front of the cabin, clasped his hands together, hoping that the poison would succeed and let the guy in the backyard taste the feeling of having the cold poison invade his bones.
Cheng Qiao entered the room, walked around the screen wall, came to the drawer, opened it, and a dozen black pills appeared in it.
Cheng Qiao was surprised but did not dare to be careless. She took out the porcelain bottle and tweezers that she had prepared long ago, and put the black pills into the porcelain bottle one by one.
I counted them as I put them in place. There were twenty-four in total. Twelve reed fruits in exchange for twenty-four cold poisons. It was not a loss. By the way, I have to give this poison a name, let's call it Reed Pills.
The drawer was closed, and the bumps on its surface turned into three glittering golden "reed balls". Cheng Qiao let out a breath and left the space with the porcelain bottle.
With a smile on her face, she walked step by step to the agent, put on a mask and gloves, then took out a porcelain bottle, poured out a black pill, pried open the man's mouth, and threw the pill in.
Ludao Pills are different from health-preserving pills. They melt in the mouth as soon as they are swallowed or chewed. If he is not allowed to swallow them, it will be bad if he spits them out when he regains consciousness.
As a top student studying medicine, he was quite capable of making people swallow pills. Cheng Qiao hid the porcelain bottle, and with his two gloved hands, he lifted the back of the spy's neck with one hand and pinched and pushed the black pill into his throat with the other hand. The black pill went down his throat into his stomach.
Cheng Qiao dragged the man to the living room again. She wanted to carefully observe the effects of the poison, but she didn't want to open the door and go out again and again.
The spy was finally awakened by the cold that was engraved in his bones. Relying on the willpower of a psychic, he struggled to open his eyes, and when he saw that this was a strange place, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He still couldn't escape the karma of being killed by others. He had to count how many people died in his hands, one, two, ten, fifty...
No, it’s hard to figure it out. His body was very cold. He wanted to condense his true energy, but suddenly he found that the true energy in his body seemed to be sucked away by something.
