Madam Wang rolled her eyes. "Are you getting old and deaf? I've told you several times it's true. Why would Sister Qing lie to you? Didn't you see for yourself if this treasure can hold water?"
Hearing Madam Wang's words, Su Muqing felt a little guilty. Ahem, strictly speaking, she had only modified the version. This shouldn't be considered outright deception, right?
"Qing girl! Third Madam is right, you are truly the lucky star of us people from Houxi Village!" Su Minghui excitedly grabbed Su Muqing's shoulders and shook her. He almost shook her to pieces.
"Alright, alright! You'll make Sister Qing dizzy!" Madam Wang chided Su Minghui, then pulled Su Muqing to her side.
Su Muqing smiled at them, then said, "Uncle, Aunt, Sister Cuiping, Rongrong, I'm telling you this because you are the people closest to me now. I'm just afraid that if I do something strange later, you'll be scared of me."
Madam Wang: "Don't worry, don't worry, we understand. It's a good thing you've become capable and have such a powerful master. We're all happy for you!"
Su Minghui: "Yes, if there's anything with the villagers, we'll shield you."
Su Cuiping: "I actually have an immortal cousin? I can hardly believe it! Am I related to an immortal now?"
Lin Rongrong: "If you have an immortal younger sister, doesn't that mean I have an immortal elder sister?"
Little Milk Bun: "Ah..."
Fei La: "Woof woof woof..."
The group of people and the dog ate and drank and chatted merrily in the carriage. It wasn't until past three in the morning that Su Minghui and his wife returned to the front of the team.
Old Third and the others had taken turns riding the motorcycles several times. The more they rode, the more interesting it became, until they ran out of gas and couldn't start the vehicles anymore, stopping halfway.
When Old Third and the others saw that the Dharma artifact wouldn't move, they thought they had accidentally broken it. They were very anxious and rushed to apologize to Su Muqing, asking her to think of a solution and see if she could cure the Dharma artifact.
Su Muqing, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up by them. When she saw the motorcycles, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Old Third and the others lifted the vehicles onto the ox cart and even assigned Old Tenth to guard them carefully.
Su Muqing returned to her own ox cart and filled a large barrel with gasoline from her space. After filling them up in front of everyone, she gave them two more barrels and then went back to sleep.
Old Third: So this Dharma artifact needs to drink water. But why does this water taste strange? It even makes one dizzy!
The people of Houxi Village had been traveling for almost a day and a night. Except for occasional stops to let the oxen and horses replenish their strength, they had been traveling the rest of the time.
Because they had been traveling by carriage the whole way, the group arrived at their destination past eight in the morning the next day. They only stopped to rest when they passed an abandoned inn.
Yesterday, she had promised everyone that she would cook a good meal. However, something unexpected had happened. Coupled with the large sum of money she had recently acquired, Su Muqing decided to be generous and treat the entire village to a delicious meal.
Early in the morning, Su Muqing began to get busy. She packed the ingredients to be used, then had Old Third and the others carry them into the inn, making it seem like they had legitimate business. After all, the villagers wouldn't go and question them.
The kitchen was ready. The men went outside to find dry firewood, and the women came to help cook. They planned to make two dishes: braised pork and shredded pork with shredded potatoes, and instant noodles for the staple food.
Many hands make light work. By noon (eleven o'clock), the food was ready. For over a hundred people, Su Muqing brought out more than ten boxes and over three hundred packs of instant noodles. Everyone finally ate their fill, even drinking the noodle soup clean!
These people were truly gluttonous. Especially Old Third and the others, each of them ate at least seven or eight packs, filling five large bowls. The person who ate the most was Old Third; he ate a full seven large bowls by himself. Su Muqing couldn't help but press her forehead at the sight!
After eating their fill, everyone sat together, chatting and resting, continuously discussing the delicious food they had just eaten. They hadn't eaten so much in a long time, and the food was so delicious.
Especially those curly noodles, they had never eaten such delicious noodles before. Some people even began to regret not saving some to eat later in the evening.
After everyone had rested sufficiently, Su Muqing released several large vats of water, allowing the women to wash up a bit.
Especially those who had exchanged their grain for goods later. They had come empty-handed, so Su Muqing gave each of them a set of new clothes, which she had bought specifically yesterday.
Everyone's clothing was uniform: women wore indigo cross-collared sets, and men wore dark gray short sets.
It was convenient to buy things in the mall, not only were there a wide variety of items, but the sizes were also very complete.
Fei La had been put into the space early in the morning because there were still ripe crops in the space. Su Muqing also took advantage of everyone being busy to enter the space with Little Milk Bun and give him and herself a good bath.
After they were cleaned up and the dog was fed, Su Muqing came out of the space. She had been busy all morning and had forgotten to give Lu Yuzhi the spiritual spring water. Fortunately, his condition had improved significantly.
When Su Muqing arrived at his room, Aunt Zhou was feeding him water.
"Greetings, Miss Su." Seeing her enter, Lu Yuzhi's face showed a smile. Looking at his complexion, it was indeed not as pale as before.
Su Muqing: "I'm sorry, Brother Lu! I was busy this morning and forgot. How are you feeling today? Have you gotten any better?"
Lu Yu nodded slightly. "Miss Su, you don't need to apologize. I'm much better. Yuzhi thanks Miss Su for your concern."
"Alright, then I'll check on you again." Su Muqing said, then opened the space's scanner.
Lu Yuzhi extended his arm, but Su Muqing didn't take his pulse. Instead, she stared intently at him, scanning him from head to toe as if trying to see through him.
Su Muqing scanned Lu Yuzhi with the detector. She paused when she reached the location of his heart. Why were ancient people's hearts so strong?
Half of Lu Yuzhi's heart was encased in ice crystals, as if it had been frozen for too long and was covered in frost. The strangest thing was that there were two strange energies, like greedy snakes, circulating within his meridians.
Su Muqing looked at Xu Fu and asked, "Uncle Xu, do you know what poison Brother Lu has been afflicted with?"
Xu Fu nodded with a solemn expression. "Thousand-year cold poison ice荇草! Those poisoned will freeze from their blood to their entire bodies. The higher one's martial arts, the faster the poison spreads."
The heart freezing over was somewhat similar to Lu Yuzhi's situation. Then what were those two abnormal energies in his meridians?
