Zheng Xiao Mistake: The Mistake of Rebirth Provoked the Cold Master

Chapter 55 "Sharing the Sweetness of the Same Taste"

Since Rong Yan promised to "follow the doctor's advice and follow the doctor's orders", he really followed them thoroughly.

Unfortunately, Zhu Zheng was not a real doctor. Perhaps because of excessive bleeding or inadequate care, the omnipotent Grand Tutor became increasingly unable to take care of himself under her care today.

A good person without a hand can no longer do many things.

At first, he just applied medicine, then he ate, and finally he even needed Zhu Zheng's help to take a bath.

Although Zhu Zheng had no complaints, she was still a little troubled by the fact that the separation between men and women was ineffective.

She hinted to Rong Yan to ask a fellow apprentice for help, but Rong Yan hesitated for a long time and said that he didn't want anyone else to know about this.

Zhu Zheng's mind became clear for a moment. It turned out that the seemingly selfish and unselfish man was actually such a face-conscious person. No wonder he was trying to hold on even with a scratch on his hand. He probably didn't want to show such a vulnerable side in front of his fellow disciples.

It turns out that he, the respectable eldest senior brother, has to work so hard and act so arrogantly.

As a master of showing off since childhood, Zhu Zheng couldn't help but be moved. Since she had seen the adults pretending to be strong, she suddenly felt that she had a heavy responsibility on her shoulders.

After a busy whole day of "taking care", it is finally time to take medicine in the evening.

Zhu Zheng finished her drink with a frown on her face. She saw Rong Yan taking her empty bowl and asked casually, "Didn't you make an extra bowl for yourself?"

I regretted asking the question as soon as I asked it. It was such a shameless question.

"I forgot." Rong Yan didn't care.

"No, no." Zhu Zheng felt guilty. "I'll make you another bowl."

She didn't know that he was not there just now because he went to make medicine. If she knew, it would be outrageous to let a man with one hand take care of her who was so lively.

Zhu Zheng rushed to the pharmacy, but couldn't tell what herbs to put in. In the end, Rong Yan put the medicine in and started the fire with a hand wrapped like a mallet. She was only responsible for adding water and fanning the fire.

Two people and three hands can be considered a good coordination.

Zhu Zheng brought the medicine back to the bamboo hut, pulled Rong Yan to sit face to face, and considerately fanned the medicine to cool it before handing it over.

Before he could even open his mouth, he picked up the bowl and drank it in one gulp.

This demeanor was quite heroic of hers. Zhu Zheng nodded with satisfaction, took out a handkerchief and symbolically wiped the corners of his mouth, lowering her voice to imitate Rong Yan's.

"well done."

Rong Yan tilted his head, with an indulgent smile on his face, and leaned against the table, looking at Zhu Zheng without blinking.

"Oh, oh, I said I forgot something." She patted her head, "I forgot to give the adults candy balls."

But she didn't have the reward with her, so she had to ask Rong Yan, "Does the lord have the candy ball with him?"

Rong Yan took out a candy bottle from his pocket and handed it over, "Here you go."

Zhu Zheng took it, poured out a pill, put it back into his mouth, and sang another sentence in a low voice.

"well done."

That's how it's done.

Rong Yan's eyes flickered, as gentle as the mist of drizzle. He thought for a moment, pinched another sugar ball from the bottle, and held it up to Zhu Zheng's mouth.

"I don't need a reward." Zhu Zheng pushed it away, "I already took one pill after I drank the medicine just now."

Rong Yan still held the candy ball and moved it close to her lips.

"What happened just now doesn't count." He frowned and said slowly, "This is not a reward, it's 'sharing the sweetness'."

The sweet flavor of plum blossoms melted in Zhu Zheng's mouth. Zhu Zheng frowned slightly. Why did this word sound familiar?

Before she could think about it, Rong Yan had already stood up and cleared the empty bowls on the table.

"Tomorrow we'll go see the hot springs and rest early."

"Do you still want to go?" Zhu Zheng asked hesitantly.

Rong Yan turned around and asked, "Didn't you say you wanted to go?"

"I do want to, but..."

But I didn't know he was injured when I said that.

"If you want to go, then go." Rong Yan said.

Zhu Zheng: "But you look very weak..."

Before she could finish the word "weak", Zhu Zheng was suddenly picked up by the waist. She was so scared that she let out a soft cry. Rong Yan held her waist with one hand and walked back to the couch and placed her steadily on it.

"What are you talking about?" He half leaned forward, his tall shadow completely covering Zhu Zheng.

People who try to show off their strength hate being exposed the most, and the adult is thin-skinned. Zhu Zheng knew that he must have been touched in a sore spot, so she quickly changed the end of her sentence.

"I need to rest..."

"You need it more." Rong Yan smiled helplessly and tapped her forehead. "Have a good sleep. I'll call you at noon tomorrow morning."

The rooster crowed three times and the sky was just getting light when Zhu Zheng knocked on the door next door.

After only two knocks, the door opened. Rong Yan still looked a little sleepy, and was a little surprised when he saw that it was Zhu Zheng.

"Why are you up so early?"

Zhu Zheng looked around furtively and said, "Let's go in and talk."

Although there were reasons for it, she still had to follow the etiquette to conceal her presence when she wanted to enter and leave Rong Yan's room since she lived in a Taoist temple.

I got up before dawn.

Rong Yan opened the door and let her in. Zhu Zheng saw the layout of the room clearly, walked straight to the closet, opened the door and began to choose carefully.

"What should we do?" Rong Yan was rarely confused.

Zhu Zheng pointed at Rong Yan who was only wearing a shirt and said, "Help the master change his clothes."

While Rong Yan was stunned, Zhu Zheng had already picked out a misty-colored robe and hugged him around the waist.

Rong Yan froze for a moment, and looked into Zhu Zheng's dark eyes, which contained only a tiny reflection of himself.

After a while, he bent down obediently and stretched out his hand in coordination with Zhu Zheng's movements.

Zhu Zheng hurriedly put on his sleeves and smoothed out the wrinkles on the lapels inch by inch. He was so tall that he had to stand on tiptoe when buttoning the collar.

The two were very close, close enough to feel his not-so-quiet breathing. In the dim morning light, the Master Taifu's ears seemed a little red.

Zhu Zheng was concentrating on her work and didn't notice anything unusual. She buttoned her clothes carefully and picked out a belt and rings of the same color.

Just as he tied the belt, Rong Yan suddenly moved his steps, and the rings and bracelets fell to the ground with a snap.

Zhu Zheng immediately said, "Don't move, I'll pick it up!"

She bent down to pick it up and put it on Rong Yan's waist. She accidentally found that the knot of the necklace was a little loose, so she untied it and prepared to tie it again.

The knot of Ying Luo was very complicated, and it had to be tied through two empty knots to finish it. She held the silk rope loop with both hands, glanced at Rong Yan's tightly wrapped hands, and looked like she was not in a position to help, so she simply bent down and tried to bite the knot with her teeth.

As soon as she leaned forward, Rong Yan's waist suddenly pulled back, leaving her empty-handed, and the rope end in her hand loosened.

"Hey, sir, don't move..."

Seeing that all his efforts were in vain, Zhu Zheng felt a little annoyed.

"No need to tie it." Rong Yan held her hand, exerted a little force to help her stand up, his face full of a suspicious blush.

Zhu Zheng was still biting the knot in her mouth. She was pulled unexpectedly and lost her balance. She fell forward and pounced directly towards Rong Yan.

At this critical moment, Zhu Zheng suddenly felt dizzy.

This kind of dizziness seemed familiar. Before she could even taste it, everything in front of her eyes suddenly went dark. She lost consciousness and passed out.

When she opened her eyes again, Zhu Zheng found herself lying in a small square pavilion with white walls on all sides.

There were a few hair-thin gold threads tied around her wrists, which were trembling due to her startled movement.

"Is Xiao Zheng'er awake?"

The sound came from outside and sounded very familiar.

Zhu Zheng regained consciousness after a while, "Master? Where am I…"

"This is the Bichen Pavilion." Chong Hongzi explained, "Don't be afraid. We have made all the preparations for detoxification tonight. We thought you wouldn't wake up, so we are preparing to force it to start."

Detox? Is the moon full tonight?

She clearly remembered talking to Rong Yan, and the day they agreed to go see the hot springs should be twelve o'clock.

He was unconscious for another three days?

It's really terrible. Not only did I lose three days of life, but being in a coma for a long time is not a good sign.

Just as I was thinking this, I heard Master Chong Hongzi speak, "Xiao Zheng'er, your pulse is agitated and turbulent, and there is a danger of poison entering your marrow. It is urgent to detoxify."

Before Zhu Zheng could say anything, she heard Chong Hongzi continue, "It might hurt a little, but there's no good way to stop it for now. Just bear with it, and it won't hurt anymore."

Zhu Zheng nodded sincerely. As long as the poison could be cured, she certainly understood that a short pain is worse than a long one.

After nodding, she realized that Chong Hongzi was outside and couldn't see her nodding, so she asked again, "How do I solve it?"

"The remaining poison in the bone joints is difficult to remove with medicine or stone. You must use the scorpion in front of you to devour it completely."

Zhu Zheng then noticed that there was a semi-transparent jade cup upside down in front of her. Several red scorpions were crawling inside it, with their front claws open, showing off their power to her.

Zhu Zheng's hair stood on end.

"Put five scorching scorpions into the corresponding acupuncture points on the five bodies. After a while, they will bite through the flesh and crawl in."

Climb in? Climb to where…….

Zhu Zheng had always kept her distance from snakes, insects, rats and ants. Now she was in the same room with these poison masters. Even though she told herself that she was doing this to detoxify, she could not control her body's instinctive fear. Her lips turned completely bloodless and she was speechless for a long time.

The gold thread on Zhu Zheng's wrist was pulled tight again. After Chong Hongzi explained the important matters, he suddenly said something else.

"Chengyi, aren't you coming out yet?"
