"...Moon Shadow Grass grows in the most dangerous forests in Yanchi."

The boy said expressionlessly.

"There are poisonous creatures and many wild beasts around."

"I know it's hard to get it, and the location is not easy to find."

Wen Ti remained calm and composed.

"That's why I asked you, a local, to help me. How about it?"

"...Do you really just want the Moon Shadow Grass?"

Obviously, Zhu Xi still didn't completely believe him.

Wen Ti brushed the dust off her hands and smiled with a forced smile.

"You little brat, I came to Yanchi just for this. Do you think I would come to such a far place for no reason?"

"..."

The boy was still thinking.

Wen Ti couldn't bear it any longer, so she took off her gloves, walked over and started stripping off his clothes.

Zhu Xi subconsciously pressed his hand.

"what are you doing?"

"What for? Of course, I'm checking to see if your bones are crooked!"

Wen Ti chuckled as she continued with her movements.

"Really... Why do you witches like to wear so many clothes? Wrapping yourself up like an onion, aren't you feeling stuffy?"

He had never seen this boy take off his clothes in the past few days.

Now that he took action, Zhu Xi resisted even more fiercely.

His interest suddenly grew.

"Why are you acting like a virgin? Are you afraid of being seen?"

Zhu Xi pressed his hands on his chest and said stubbornly, "We in the witch cult... have been accustomed to wrapping our bodies since childhood."

"Humph, I see you've wrapped up not only your bodies, but your hearts as well!"

Wenti's words were sharp and to the point.

"..."

Zhu Xi was silent again.

"Do you want to get well or not?"

Wen Ti narrowed her eyes and frowned.

"If you really have uneven shoulders or your legs are not the same length, it's none of my business!"

"..."

After a brief silence, the boy finally let go of his hand.

"I promise you."

Wenti continued to rip off his clothes, humming in confusion.

"what?"

"When I get back and finish the matter... I will help you find the Moon Shadow Grass."

For the first time in days, the suspicion in the boy's eyes faded.

"I'll fetch it... and give it to you."

Wenti patted his head with satisfaction: "That's right!"

"..."

Zhu Xi returned to his silent self and turned his face away again.

After removing his clothes, Wendy carefully checked the healing of the joints.

"I told you, it's still a little crooked. I need to straighten it out for you."

"...bone correction?"

"Lie down!"

Wenti patted his shoulder in a commanding tone.

"..."

The boy hesitated for a moment, but finally did as he was told under his gaze.

Wen Ti had a serious expression on her face. She stretched out her hands and pinched here and twisted there.

Zhu Xi felt very uncomfortable because he had never taken off all his clothes in front of others.

Luckily, Wenti gave him some privacy by covering his middle with clothing.

From his tense state, it can be seen that he is still on guard and does not fully trust.

Wen Ti saw this and chuckled.

"You've grown up pretty well, little brat."

After finishing, he deliberately scanned the other person's body from head to toe and said meaningfully.

This kid hasn't finished growing yet, but he's already as tall as him.

And there are muscles?

The frame is large and solid, and you can tell at a glance that it can still grow a lot.

Plus this face with clear and deep lines...

In two or three years, it will surely charm a lot of people.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Xi immediately put on his clothes without responding to him.

In the blink of an eye, the young man wrapped himself in the black robe again.

"Humph, I know you're thin-skinned, so I won't tease you anymore."

Wenti walked back to the fire and smiled.

"Let's continue drinking mushroom soup today."

"..."

The feeling of having no desire to live appeared again on Zhu Xi's expressionless face.

He never wanted to see mushrooms again in his life.

……

That day, when Wenti came back, in addition to the usual herbs and mushrooms, she also brought a dying rabbit.

Zhu Xi originally thought that he was boiling water to process the rabbit so that he could eat it.

Unexpectedly, the pot of water was finally used to cook mushrooms, and the rabbit was saved by him in just two or three strokes.

"Why didn't you eat it? Save it instead?"

Isn't it troublesome?

After watching for a long time, he suddenly asked.

"This little thing came to me on its own initiative and asked me to save it. Why should I eat it?"

Wendy said with a smile as she looked at the little fellow who was able to jump around in the cave after treatment.

"Besides, rabbits are animals that usually just eat grass. They are harmless, so just save them and release them."

"..."

Zhu Xi seemed to see himself in this rabbit.

It is said that doctors have a kind heart. It turns out that he is really the kind of person who will save a life at will.

Can even a rabbit tell who is the one who can save it?

"Come on, brother Zhu Xi, it's time to drink soup."

Wen Ti smiled, brought a bowl of mushroom soup, and squatted in front of him.

"You're welcome. Just remember to help your brother Wen find the Moon Shadow Grass."

"..."

He closed his eyes, held his breath, and was too lazy to struggle.

This went on day after day, and after ten days or so, his leg finally healed.

Wen Ti's medical skills are worthy of the title of miracle doctor, she is simply a miracle doctor who can bring people back to life.

Even Zhu Xi himself couldn't believe it.

Moreover, not only the legs, but all the previous injuries on the body were healed as well.

There weren't even any sequelae left.

"So... you really just want to torment me, and don't want to kill me?"

Looking at the young man who was feeding the rabbits grass at the entrance of the cave, his voice was slightly hoarse.

Wen Ti turned around unhappily and rolled her eyes at him.

"Why would I kill you? Is there any benefit? Do you really think everyone wants to kill you?"

This brat really has paranoid delusions.

"..."

Only then did Zhu Xi realize that the person in front of him had a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

He looks fierce and difficult to deal with, but he always tortures people with all kinds of strange means.

But he was really helping him heal.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have recovered so quickly.

"Your mind is always wandering. I don't know what you are thinking about, but you seem to want to go back quickly."

Wenti suddenly said without turning around.

"I think there must be some important things in your church. Why don't you leave?"

"Yes...I have to go back as soon as possible."

He slowly clenched his fists, his eyes and brows filled with gloom and an unmeltable coldness.

Wen Ti then stood up and patted the grass residue on her palms.

"Okay, go ahead."

"..."

When he reached the entrance of the cave, the boy suddenly stopped and turned to look at him.

"……Thanks."

I finally don’t have to drink mushroom soup anymore. I feel like a relief.

"You're welcome. Don't forget what you promised."

Wenti leaned against the stone wall behind her and raised her eyebrows.

"By the way, what is it called?"

"?"

Zhu Xi looked down and made eye contact with the poisonous spider that had crawled out of his clothes.

“…It has no name.”

"Oh?"

Wen Ti was quite surprised and said casually, "Then let's call it Xiaohua, it suits its appearance!"
