Chapter 71 Stay to Help
Jiang Zuo looked at Shen Yiyi with anticipation. This time the Crown Princess's firewood had been refined, so it was time to prepare the antidote for his master.
"Well, we'll do it once we get all the herbs." Shen Yiyi nodded.
With these mind-concentrating and energy-gathering pills, she can have internal strength at any time, so refining the antidote will not be a problem.
"Really? What other herbs are you short of? If not enough, let's go to the mountains to find them." Jiang Zuo grinned excitedly.
I am finally going to make an antidote for my master. I am so happy that I can't express it in words.
Even Shang Zhanchen was looking at Shen Yiyi at this moment, although his face was still expressionless.
But he was also excited, so much so that when he looked at Shen Yiyi, there was eager anticipation in his eyes.
However, when Shen Yiyi heard what Jiang Zuo said, her brows immediately frowned.
"Can't you see I've been busy all night? I have to take a break for a while."
After saying that, she ran towards the man's stone bed, came up to him, and climbed up with her butt sticking out.
"Bang" he lay down all of a sudden, even though he and everyone knew each other halfway.
Xiao Jiang treats Xiao Guai like a real brother, and treats him more like an outsider.
He noticed that she was tired after a whole night's work, and he didn't even say a word of concern. Instead, he asked her to continue working.
He looked nice at ordinary times, but now it seems that he is just as cold-blooded and ruthless as Xiaoguai.
When Jiang Zuo saw the Crown Princess climbing onto the bed, he became so anxious that his throat was smoking.
“Miss……………………”
Just as she was about to discuss with the Crown Princess about finding herbs for the master, the man raised his hand to stop her.
“……………………”Shang Zhanchen signaled Jiang Zuo to stop talking.
He lowered his head to look at Shen Yiyi who was lying beside him and saw that her face was pale.
It seems that he was very tired last night. Anyway, he has been poisoned for a long time.
There is no need to rush, let this woman rest for a while.
“But……………………” Jiang Zuo wanted to say something else.
But before she could say anything, the man stopped her with a look and she shut up.
However, Shen Yiyi also knew that Xiao Jiang was concerned about Xiaoguai, so she leaned over to look at him.
"Don't worry, Xiaoguai will not be poisoned for the time being unless he uses his internal energy.
Even if the poison takes effect, don't I still have two pills?"
After saying that, she closed her eyes and lay down again. She had consumed too much energy after refining pills for the entire night.
I urgently need to take a rest and replenish my strength, otherwise I won’t have the energy to make an antidote for Xiaoguai.
"Oh, okay." Jiang Zuo nodded.
Even though he was extremely anxious, since his master and the Crown Princess had already said so, he couldn't say anything else.
What's more, the Crown Princess had been refining pills all night last night and was indeed tired.
But he was still so anxious in his heart, and desperately hoped that the Crown Princess would quickly make the antidote.
He didn't have this feeling before when there was no hope, but now he was so anxious that his heart seemed to jump out of his throat.
Seeing the anxiety in his heart, Shang Zhanchen looked at him calmly.
"There's no rush. Go and cook."
He had been suffering from poison ever since he could remember, and had gotten used to it over the years.
Even though his internal organs were still aching badly at the moment, it was under his control, so he was not in a hurry.
"Yes." Jiang Zuo nodded.
I also know what my master is thinking and understand that this is the reason, but I am still very anxious.
As soon as Shen Yiyi lay down, she fell into a deep sleep, listening to the woman's even breathing.
Shang Zhanshen casually covered her with the quilt beside him, glanced at the entrance of the cave, stood up and walked out.
This cave is located halfway up the mountain. Standing at the entrance of the cave, you can overlook most of Xianxia Mountain.
He stared into the distance with deep eyes.
"……………………"
My body has been ravaged by the poison for more than ten years. Even though the woman said she could cure the poison, I still feel it's not real.
Shen Yiyi slept until noon and didn't wake up naturally.
Instead, I was awakened by the aroma. Before I opened my eyes, I smelled roast chicken.
He quickly got up and ran to Jiang Zuo.
"It smells so good! What delicious food did you make?"
As she spoke, she reached out and opened the lid of the large steamer, revealing two sauce-flavored roast chickens inside, and she immediately grinned.
"When did you buy it?" She looked at Jiang Zuo with a smile.
I have never bought this thing before, so it must have been bought by Xiao Jiang.
"Miss, I bought this in town. Please wait a moment. The meal will be ready soon."
As Jiang Zuo spoke, he pointed to the stone table next to him. Shen Yiyi also looked in the direction of his finger.
Seeing that there were several plates and bowls on the table, he hurried over. After seeing what was on the plates, he grinned again.
“It’s quite rich!”
In addition to the two kinds of mixed pickles, there was also the braised pork that we had eaten before, plus the roast chicken in the pot.
It’s such a pleasure to be able to eat four dishes early in the morning without having to stretch out my hands.
Looking at the greasy braised meat, I couldn't control myself and reached out to grab one.
When he was about to put it in his mouth, he saw Han Chun walking in and was stunned.
"you……………………"
She looked around and wanted to ask why you hadn't left yet, but she felt that it was inappropriate to talk like that, so she didn't continue.
But Han Chun had already guessed what the Crown Princess was going to say next, and gave him a faint smile.
"Miss Shen, I have already reported what happened here to our masters.
My parents specifically asked me to stay here to see if there is anything I can do to help."
Han Chun had a respectful look on his face. Although they could protect their master in secret, it was not very convenient to do things.
Only then did he think of finding an excuse to stay by his master's side so that Jiang Zuo would not be too busy.
"Oh, then I really have to thank your parents. You have worked hard." Shen Yiyi smiled.
I have to say that the local officials are pretty good and very thoughtful.
They are really short of manpower in the mountains right now. With one more person to help, they can get a lot more done.
"Miss Shen, you're too polite. You helped us wipe out the bandits. This is what we should do." Han Chun smiled modestly again.
Just as I was about to say something else, Jiang Zuo shouted from the side.
"Don't just stand there, come and eat."
"Oh, okay." Han Chun agreed.
Only then did he walk over with Shang Zhanchen, looked at the four dishes on the table, and swallowed uncontrollably.
"……………………"
It is better to follow the master. You can get all kinds of delicious food. It is much more enjoyable than eating dry food.
Jiang Zuo first served Shang Zhanchen a bowl of rice, and then served Shen Yiyi a bowl.
"Miss, can we detoxify Xiaoguai today?"
The Crown Princess has slept for the entire morning. No matter how tired she is, she should have recovered her strength.
