Chapter 58 You really want to marry Wei Zhishu that much?
She needed to prepare quite a few different kinds of medicine, and she used up most of the common medicinal herbs in the pharmacy.
After calculating the bill, Xia Mo took out a 500-year-old ginseng that she had obtained while searching for treasure in the mountains and hung it on the beam in the center of the pharmacy, so that it could be seen as soon as the door was opened.
Before leaving the pharmacy in late summer, Xia Mo used her divine sense to explore the surrounding environment and, after confirming that no one had noticed her, leaped out.
There was a dilapidated temple in the county. I went there at the end of summer.
The old, dilapidated temple was deserted and in ruins. The wooden beams overhead were so rotten that they looked as if they were about to collapse at any moment. In winter, the beggars from the city would go to the Niangniang Temple in the county to keep warm.
As summer drew to a close, he entered the dilapidated temple, using his divine sense to scan every nook and cranny before stepping inside.
To prevent the presence of a cellar, Xia Mo would scan the ground with his divine sense, extending a distance of one zhang (approximately 3.3 meters).
Then, they actually discovered something.
It was a decaying skeleton and some scattered silver coins buried there.
The marks on the skull clearly indicate that he died, but what does that have to do with her?
After confirming that there were no living people inside the ruined temple at the end of summer, they stepped into the temple.
She retrieved the categorized medicinal herbs from her soul space, took out the small alchemy cauldron she had brought back from the cultivation world, and began to refine medicine using her divine sense.
If doctors and physicians in this world saw this, they would only think that Xia Mo's behavior was just playing tricks.
These are all dried medicinal herbs. When refining medicine in late summer, some water needs to be added. She had prepared a lot of them in order to start planting spiritual fields in her soul space, and now she could use them.
After the water, which carried some celestial energy, left the soul space, the celestial energy quickly dissipated, turning it into water that was only slightly better than ordinary water.
A busy half hour has passed...
In the summer, she took out the medicine bottle and poured the prepared pills into the small white ceramic bottles.
Xia Mo used her divine sense to mark the small medicine bottle and then stored the eighteen medicinal herbs into her soul space.
Even amidst the busyness of late summer, he didn't forget to use his divine sense to frequently check on the situation of his relatives in the inn and the prison.
Under the influence of the calming incense, Xia's mother, second brother, and third brother slept soundly. Xia's father and eldest brother, in the prison, were also able to sleep a little more comfortably without the rats bothering them.
Xia Mo got up, used his divine sense to find his way, and headed towards the Wei family in Anping County.
Outside the high walls of the Wei family in Anping County—
Xia Mo used the power of spiritual refinement to leap up as if flying, and flew into the high wall.
None of the Wei family's patrol guards noticed Xia Mo's arrival.
Xia Mo weakened his aura to almost nothing and headed towards the courtyard where Wei Zhishu lived with a clear purpose.
As Xia Mo passed by the courtyard where Huangfu Qian lived, he scanned the courtyard with his divine sense.
Huangfu Qian's courtyard was quiet.
Xia Mo was worried about disturbing Huangfu Qian, who had superhuman spiritual sense, so he used his divine sense to scan Huangfu Qian's courtyard.
They arrived at the courtyard where Wei Zhishu lived in late summer.
Xia Mo's divine sense swept over the courtyard where Wei Zhishu lived.
Wei Zhishu was lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
At the end of summer, Xia stood by the window of Wei Zhishu's bedroom, gently tapped it, made a small hole, and used her divine sense to send a pill into the room.
Even after the pills were placed beside Wei Zhishu, he still didn't feel anything.
The pill flew into Wei Zhishu's throat, melted instantly in his mouth, and quickly merged into his body.
Wei Zhishu suddenly sat up with a start, clutching his throat and coughing violently.
As soon as Wei Zhishu coughed, the maid who was keeping watch in Er's room rushed into the room.
"Third Master, water..."
The maid handed a pot of water to Wei Zhishu.
Wei Zhishu reached down and tried to swat the object out of his throat, but after vomiting a lot of stomach acid, nothing came out.
"Third Master..."
The maid on night watch was terrified by Wei Zhishu.
Wei Zhishu, his face ashen, picked up a pot of water and gulped it down. After finishing the pot, he urged the maid to prepare more. After drinking until he was stuffed, Wei Zhishu continued to vomit.
The maid on night watch turned pale with fright.
As Xia Mo left the courtyard where Wei Zhishu was, she used her divine sense to observe Wei Zhishu's actions, and a slight sneer appeared on her lips.
Her medicine melts in your mouth and is immediately absorbed by your body; you feel like spitting it out.
Hehe...
In late summer, I passed by the side courtyard where Huangfu Qian was sleeping again.
The side courtyard where Huangfu Qian was sleeping remained quiet.
As Xia Mo thought about the effects of the medicine, a pleased smile appeared on her face. She relaxed for a fleeting moment as she left the Wei family's high walls—just for a brief instant…
Xia Mo leaped over the high wall and landed, his gaze meeting Huangfu Qian's.
The moment their eyes met, Xia Mo's heart clenched, and her heart skipped several beats.
Her mind raced through every detail of her interactions with Huangfu Qian, including the time she mistook him for Wei Zhishu.
A surge of anger and embarrassment rose within her.
Huangfu Qian not only possesses extraordinary spiritual awareness, but also has an exceptional ability to conceal her aura. If she doesn't use her divine sense to scan specifically, it would be difficult for her to detect her.
Huangfu Qian was not surprised at all when he saw Xia Mo.
Xia Mo stepped back a few paces and leaned against the wall, still needing to slightly raise her head to meet Huangfu Qian's gaze.
Xia Mo was expressionless, her childlike demeanor gone from her face in front of her family. Her eyes held only indifference and disregard for life, as if the person in front of her was not a living person, but a corpse.
When Huangfu Qian looked at Xia Mo's face at this moment, his heart suddenly trembled, and he was stunned for a moment. This was Xia Mo's true face.
"We meet again," Huangfu Qian said, his throat inexplicably dry.
Without wasting words with Huangfu Qian, Xia Mo asked directly, "Are you going to stop me?"
Huangfu Qian stepped aside, indicating that he had no intention of stopping anyone.
Xia Mo was too lazy to talk to Huangfu Qian, so she walked past him.
Xia Mo subconsciously extended her divine sense, taking in the situation in all directions around her.
"You really want to marry Wei Zhishu that badly?" Huangfu Qian asked, not even understanding his own feelings at the time.
If Huangfu Qian hadn't said anything, she could have pretended not to know that she had mistaken someone for someone else. But now that Huangfu Qian had brought it up, the shame and embarrassment of her mistaken identity resurfaced.
Xia Mo turned around and faced Huangfu Qian. After staring at Huangfu Qian for a while, she suddenly leaned forward and pressed herself against him.
Huangfu Qian reacted, but his reaction couldn't keep up with Xia Mo's speed.
Huangfu Qianying's eyes darkened for a moment, then he simply let Xia Mo approach him.
"You haven't fallen for me, have you?" Xia Mo leaned close to Huangfu Qian's chest, only to realize that... her head only reached Huangfu Qian's chest. Trying to flirt with him in this position was a little funny.
Annoyed flashed in Xia Mo's eyes when she realized she might become a laughing stock.
Xia Mo refused to give in, reached out, wrapped her arms around Huangfu Qian's neck, and pressed Huangfu Qian's head down.
Huangfu Qian's body instinctively tried to dodge, but strangely, despite his skills honed on the battlefield, he still couldn't avoid it!
Huangfu Qian readily complied, lowering his head to meet Xia Mo's gaze.
