"..."

After he force-fed him a few pieces of snake meat, Zhu Xi immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

His entire forehead was covered in sweat and his brows were furrowed in an unbearable frown.

If you look closely, your body seems to be shaking slightly.

Wen Ti: Oh, this kid is actually trying to hold it in. He doesn’t want to show his discomfort and vulnerability?

"The interaction between the snake venom and the poison in your body can really make you feel miserable."

He took off his gloves and placed his fingertips directly in contact with the skin on the other person's wrist.

Zhu Xi was stunned.

"what happened?"

Wen Ti lowered her eyes and then smiled.

"I just think it's troublesome to wear gloves. Besides, you're full of poison, and you can't do anything to me."

Anyone who has heard of witchcraft knows that the people here are poisonous and must never be touched directly.

They wrap themselves in robes all year round, leaving only their faces and hair exposed.

Anyone who touches their skin will be killed immediately by the poison.

But Wenti is naturally not afraid of this.

"..."

Hearing this, the young man silently turned his face away and no longer looked at him.

The reason why I was stunned just now was because...

From childhood to adulthood, no one has ever touched me like this except my master.

Even if the relationship between fellow students is very good, they will not have physical contact.

Because everyone in the sect carries different kinds of poisons and also raises various poisonous creatures.

They are not used to physical contact... since they were young.

"Sure enough, the snake venom has been neutralized."

After checking the situation, Wenti withdrew her hand.

Then she suddenly took a look at his clothes.

"Your witch cult's aesthetics...are really not that good."

Why do you like to wrap yourself in this dark robe?

If you don’t know, you might think that they are afraid to see people.

“…It has nothing to do with you.”

The boy replied coldly.

The pain in his body was still there, but he continued to endure it silently, exuding a sense of rejection that kept strangers away.

"Humph, I'm tired too. I don't want to talk to you any more."

Wenti walked to the other side of the cave, where soft and thick straw was laid out, which she used as a bed.

I lay my head down, closed my eyes, and began to sleep.

The bonfire that had been reignited not long ago gradually grew weaker and weaker, and finally went out completely.

At the same time, Zhu Xi finally got through this painful ordeal.

When the pain subsided, my body felt much better than before.

And after eating snake meat, you will naturally no longer feel hungry.

It turns out that this person...

Are you really helping him heal his injuries?

In the darkness, the boy stared silently at the sleeping young man diagonally opposite him, like a wild beast observing the enemy.

……

After staring for most of the night, I finally fell asleep without realizing it.

When I woke up, Wendy was gone.

“……” He must be sleeping so deeply because he was seriously injured and his body has not recovered yet.

I didn't even notice when that person left the cave.

Just as I was thinking about it, I saw Wenti walking in from the cave with a smile on her face.

"I found some herbs I haven't seen before, and some strange mushrooms. I'll cook them all for you."

He is not treating people at all, he is just treating them as guinea pigs.

Before, I was alone and had to try everything myself, but now I don’t have to.

Looking at the mushrooms he poured out from the backpack, Zhu Xi pursed his lips slightly, wanting to say something, but held it back.

These things...most of them are poisonous, and some can even paralyze the human brain.

Not only will you become unconscious after eating it, but you will also see little people.

And these herbs...

Some of them he had never even seen himself.

"If you eat this, I will give you acupuncture to heal your wounds."

While cooking mushroom soup, Wen Ti said leisurely.

"Your internal injuries have healed a lot, but bones don't heal that easily, and there's a chance they might even grow crooked."

"If you want to stand up again and return to your former self, you'd better listen to me."

"..."

Zhu Xi looked at him quietly and said nothing.

"If you didn't refuse, I'll take it as your consent."

He smiled and continued to stir the soup in the pot with a wooden stick.

"Honestly, it's not easy to find something to eat in this mountain den, so just be content."

After the soup boiled, he raised his hand and sprinkled some unknown seasoning into it.

An indescribable smell instantly spread in the cave.

After a moment, Wendy drank the whole pot with a smile on her face.

After drinking it, Zhu Xi felt like he had lost all desire to live.

He had never eaten anything so disgusting.

The toxins in these mushrooms and herbs were nothing to him, but the taste was really unpalatable.

After feeding him the soup, Wen Ti sat back and took out a pheasant from the backpack.

It was quickly prepared and put on the fire to roast.

"...Didn't you say that it's hard to find food in the mountains?"

Zhu Xi couldn't help it after all and asked coldly.

Wenti said calmly, "Yeah, mushrooms are hard to pick. It's easier to catch chickens."

"..."

The boy frowned, pursed his lips and turned his head away.

His eyes were closed, as if he was asleep.

The aroma of roasted chicken filled the cave. Wenti sniffed in enjoyment and opened her mouth to eat.

"Mmm, it smells so good!"

……

This situation basically continued for the next few days.

This kid always looked very wary, and Wen Ti didn't bother to be polite with him.

They use some strange methods to treat him every day, and the main thing is to treat him while tormenting him.

If this kid doesn't cooperate, just force him to drink it.

However, over the past few days, Zhu Xi seemed to have been so annoyed by him that he could only remain silent and let him do whatever he wanted.

"The bones are healing well. In ten days or half a month, he will be able to stand on his own."

Wen Ti pulled out the silver needles from his legs one by one and put them on the fire to disinfect them.

After packing up all his stuff, he glanced at the face of the young man in front of him and suddenly laughed out loud.

"You want to release the water, right? Just say it, why are you holding it in?"

"..." A trace of annoyance flashed across Zhu Xi's face. He avoided his gaze and moved his lips slightly.

"Don't worry about it."

"Oh, you're still so tough? You've been relying on me for food, drink, and toilet these days."

Wenti directly teased him.

"I'm not embarrassed, why are you shy?"

After saying that, he bent down, helped him up, and took him out of the cave to deal with it.

"Come on, pee."

"..."

Zhu Xi still couldn't stand on his own, and most of his body weight had to be supported by him, like a child who had not yet learned to walk.

Wendy was like a parent taking her child to the toilet, and this was not her first time watching.

"I've seen it so many times, what's there to be shy about?"

His face was full of teasing and mockery.

"We doctors don't care so much. In my eyes, they are all patients."

"…Why on earth are you doing this?"

After returning to the cave, Zhu Xi stared at him for a long time and asked again.

Because I haven't spoken much these days, my voice is a little hoarse.

"You think too much. You have to pay these back!"

Wendy sat down against the wall, put on her gloves, and continued to sort the herbs she had recently collected.

"Do you know where the Moon Shadow Grass is? That's what I want!"
