Jing lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, then said, "Yes, that's probably why. The jade bottle contains jade bamboo from Qiongshan, the double-eared pot contains ice spirits, and the rosewood box contains a variety of small things, such as the fairy pill, the dawn handkerchief, the silk bracelet, and the green bamboo hairpin. The maid in charge only remembers these. I just don't know what the thieves want these things for?"

I was dizzy after hearing this. While washing his hair, I said, "I don't even know what they are used for. Let's put it this way, which ones are hard to find and buy outside?"

Jing thought: "Yuzhu is not a rare thing, it just looks good and can lower the temperature around it. It's just that Qiongshan is difficult to enter, but if you get the consent of the goddess in the mountain, it's everywhere and easy to get. Although Bingpo is rare, it can only make water into ice and be used as a cold drink in summer. Although bracelets and hairpins are exquisitely crafted, they can be made by finding a few skilled craftsmen and spending some time. Although Xianlingdan is difficult to refine, the recipe has not been lost, it's just that the raw materials grow slowly."

I thought about it. Things with special functions are not that powerful. Winter is coming soon, and it will be cold without them. I really can't think of any special features, so I asked, "What is the origin of those bottles and jars?"

Jing thought for a moment and said, "The rosewood box is the work of Liu Qiaojiang, and the jade bottle and double-handled pot... yes! They are the works of Master Li! This Master Li is a mysterious dragon that can't be found from head to tail. Although his craftsmanship is exquisite, he can't produce one in several years. It all depends on his temper."

I clapped my hands: "Does he have die-hard fans? People who are wholeheartedly begging to buy his stuff?"

Jing's face turned slightly red: "Master Li has always been a playboy and has had relationships with many women. Among them, there are bound to be those who are determined to follow him..."

Wow, I didn't expect there is this anecdote, I can't help but laugh: "No wonder, he just walked away, leaving the woman with unrequited love and a debt of love. Wouldn't she chase him to the ends of the earth? If she can't find him, she can find something of his, and seeing the things reminds her of him, which can also relieve the pain of missing him."

Jing couldn't help but laugh: "If that's the case, then it's okay to let her take it. But the bottom of this bottle has the seal of the Tushan family, so don't let her use it to do bad things, or she will be implicated."

As I wiped the cream off his face, I said, "That's easy. You can write a notice to the world and clear yourself of suspicion."

He smiled too, and when I wiped it, a smiling face with sword-like eyebrows, star-like eyes, jade-like face and red lips appeared. I couldn't help but feel excited, and the towel in my hand almost dropped into the pool.

He didn't notice it, but just smiled: "Miss Lanxiang, do you want me to announce to the world that Tushan Mansion was not well guarded and property was lost?"

I came back to my senses, lowered my head and folded my handkerchief: "Why don't you just say that it was lost in the mansion? Anyway, you just want to announce to the world that something was lost to distance yourself from the matter. Why not say that a batch of things were given to Master Fenglong, and then lost during transportation. Then explain to Master Fenglong and replace them with some good ones."

He was stunned, then looked at me: "I didn't expect you to be so quick-witted when it comes to lying."

My face turned red and I smiled guiltily, wondering in my heart if he would think of anything.

The more guilty I felt, the more he stared at me. After chatting for a long time, the room suddenly became quiet. I felt a little uncomfortable and a little hot, perhaps because I had stayed near the hot spring for too long and was steaming from the heat.

I stole a glance at him, but met his gaze. His hair was wet like a waterfall, his lips were half open, there was a delicate mole between his nose, his eyes were flashing with the reflection of a pool of spring water, and his face, which had just been wiped by me, was even more pale and pink, which could be called vivid and charming. I didn't dare to look at him anymore, and turned my head to fan my face.

He only asked hesitantly, "Lanxiang, how do you feel now?"

Me? I feel a lot more! Unfortunately, I can't express it all, so I have to keep it to myself.

I raised my hand to wipe the sweat off my forehead and replied, "It's okay, I, I just... feel a little hot. It might be because I'm serving you, the Second Young Master."

He raised his hand and waved it, a beam of blue light rushed straight to the top of the cave, and the vines covering the top of the cave were pushed away by him, allowing some air to come in. In the small gap, a touch of silver moonlight accompanied by a little bit of cold starlight sprinkled down, reflecting and blending with the original warm yellow candlelight.

I looked up at the cave ceiling, inhaled a few strands of cool air, and then felt a warm current in my throat. I lowered my head and saw a little blood dripping from my nose. In a moment, it turned into a stream and gathered into a small puddle on the ground. I quickly got up and wanted to wipe it with the towel on the shelf. Unexpectedly, a soft hand grabbed my wrist, and a coolness slowly flowed into the place where my skin touched, which was very cool.

Tu Shanjing said softly, "Don't be afraid. You used the antidote too late. There are just some side effects. Hu Zhen has already reported it to me in advance."

As he said this, he turned me around, picked up his towel, wiped the blood from my nose, threw the towel away, and pressed my forehead with his hand. I felt the cool spiritual energy slowly pouring into me.

At such a close distance, I couldn't look up at him directly, so I could only nod my head with a red face and a warm heart. Suddenly, I saw the water-soaked, almost transparent clothes he was wearing, and a little red on his chest. I quickly looked up, but I met his serious gaze. My face, which had finally cooled down, instantly heated up, and I felt like I had a fever.

I felt my throat burning, and said in a hoarse voice: "Master... I'm so hot."

He tied the handkerchief around my eyes and whispered, "It's too late to remove the fire poison. The residual power is still there. Just wait for me to help you eliminate it."

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt the coolness on my forehead gradually move down, repelling the burning sensation in my throat, penetrating my heart, and my chest no longer felt stuffy. But not long after, I felt a bone-deep chill rising from my back, and for a moment my gums were trembling and my whole body was shaking.

"Young Master, I'm so cold again!" I couldn't help but exclaim.

With a "splash", I was dragged into the pool by him, and I screamed again. I couldn't see, and I lost my balance, so I instinctively waved my hands around. In a panic, I think I grabbed his waist randomly, because it felt soft and firm, probably the so-called abdominal muscles that I had never touched. But I didn't have time to appreciate it, because my hand was immediately pulled by him, and his voice came into my ears, which sounded a little distorted and hazy through the water. He said, "Don't panic, I'm here."

I suddenly calmed down, and could immediately feel the warmth of the pool water driving away the biting cold and wrapping me up softly.

He said, "Hu Zhen was afraid that it was too late to cure it, so he increased the dosage of the antidote. He was afraid that you would have a cold, so I asked you to come to the hot spring today. I didn't expect that your fire poison had not been eliminated, and you would have a cold as well. I have no choice but to help you cure it now. If you feel hot again, just squeeze my hand and I will give you spiritual power. Repeat this several times, and when the cold and hot merge and the power becomes weaker and weaker, it will be completely eliminated."
