"That's easy. I'll jump to the top by myself, use a rope to tie up the doctor and drag you to pick the herbs." Lei Ke deliberately toyed with the poor doctor, and when he became interested, he actually pulled out the end of the rope from his waist and hung it around the doctor's waist. Amidst the screams of the doctors, he brought him up the mountain with the doctor in mid air, and finished harvesting the last medicinal herb from him.
"You all are forcing me to do this! He completely disregarded human life! Let this fearless and cowardly person risk his life to gather herbs for your master! "
It wasn't easy getting down from the mountain, but the Seven Souls that had been tormented complained loudly to their six souls!
"Doctor, thank you for your hard work. Here is the silver for you." Lei Ke picked his ears and apologized to the doctor, and stuffed 50 taels of silver into his mouth.
Looking at the two heavy bags of silver, the Doctor's face was still pale, but his eyes were bright. He gripped the silver tightly.
"I deserve it." As the doctor spoke, he kept the silver.
Doctor, we've exhausted a lot of our energy to gather the herbs listed in this prescription. Lei Ke was a straightforward person, even though he had given the silver to the doctor, he did not feel guilty anymore and urged the doctor on.
"I'm also tired today, send someone to follow me. There are many types of herbs here, and they need to be boiled for four hours before the sky gets dark. I also happen to have the rest of the herbs ready, you guys just need to cook them on time."
After the doctor finished, he looked at Ru Shuang and Lei Ke.
"I'll go. Go back and tell the young master that you have harvested all the medicine, so that he and the lady can feel at ease." Ru Shuang took the initiative and said.
"Alright, then I'll have to trouble Sister Shuang. I'll go back and reply to the young master now." After Lei Ke finished, he bowed and walked towards the small courtyard.
When Xia Li woke up, the sky in the west was already covered with a multicolored light, it was orange, warm yellow, and red. The multicolored light emitted the afterglow of summer, and as she looked at Xia Li, she became infatuated.
She had long since noticed the Clear Heart Pill on the side of the table. She took the white porcelain bottle and removed the stopper, placing it on the tip of her nose to smell it. She felt her whole being awaken.
When Xia Li thought about what happened before she fainted, she naturally knew that it was the effect of the medicine Sun Chun gave her to drink that caused her to fall into a deep sleep for a long time. Her body being able to effectively relax and prevent her from sneaking away, she knew that he was doing this out of goodwill.
However, she still couldn't bear to blame him. After thinking about it for a while, all she could think of in the end was a soft sigh.
The space was still the same. The painkillers she kept in the apparatus previously had long been prepared, and now that she had activated the long term freezing process, she took out a dozen or so of the painkillers that had been hidden inside and stored them in a small box that she brought along with her. They were stored properly and brought out of the space.
At the same time, there were hurried knocking on the door. Xia Li put away the medicine box, walked to the door and opened it hurriedly. Sun Chun looked anxious as he held her in his arms.
"Are you angry? You're not opening the door for so long? "
"That's right, you secretly planted a sleeping pill in my medicine bowl. It was all for nothing that I trusted you so much!" Xia Li pretended to be angry and tried to push Sun Chun away, but the man in front of him became even more angry.
"That is also for your own good, to prevent you from running around. In the next few days, I will also put some sleeping pills in the soup!"
"Sun Chun, you!" Xia Li was so angry that he could not get up, is this man crazy!
"Don't have any objections, even if you can't beat me, I will still be by your side for the next twenty days.
Sun Chun's smile was extremely evil, completely different from the usually aloof and estranged ice mountain man's image.
"Do I have to be unconscious for half a day every day?" Xia Li rejected her in her heart as she had to think of a way to change the current situation.
"Listen to me. There are only ten days left. Have a good rest. After ten days, I'll give you back your freedom." After Sun Chun finished speaking, he pressed on Xia Li's acupoints, preventing her from moving for a moment.
"Let me go." Xia Li hated this kind of feeling where he couldn't move at all. His nails dug into his palms and his cheeks bulged out from anger.
"Promise me you won't run around. Rest well. Take your medicine on time and I'll let you go." Sun Chun sat on the chair and looked at Xia Li's eyes that were about to spew fire at him. He felt a faint sense of guilt in his heart, but he was willing to be an evil person for once, in order to let this girl rest and cure her headache.
"Alright, I agree." Xia Li endured for a long time, as his whole face revealed impatience.
Sun Chun opened up Xia Li's acupoints, and she fiercely pushed him away and ran out.
At this time, Lei Ke wanted to find Sun Chun, but when he saw Xia Li angrily rushing out, he automatically retreated to the side. When he saw Sun Chun coming out with a helpless look, he could not help but ask.
"Young master, what's wrong with Lady Xia Li?" Lei Ke rubbed his head and asked carefully.
"Nothing, Little Li is in a bad mood." Sun Chun had both hands behind his back, and his expression was not too good either.
"Do you want this subordinate to chase after you and protect Miss Xia Li?" Lei Ke suggested.
"Is Ru Shuang coming back soon?" Sun Chun looked at the sky outside and asked.
"Yes, the doctor said that before nightfall, the medicine will be ready. He also said that we should prepare the medicine for Old Lady Li every day."
Lei Ke bowed and replied.
"Alright, then go chase after Xia Li. Remember to bring her back safely."
Sun Chun looked at the direction Xia Li was heading in and quickly urged him on.
Lei Ke immediately gave chase.
Not long after, Ru Shuang returned with a few bags of medicine and a food box.
"This is a medicine that the doctor concocted for aunt, right?" Sun Chun said as he accepted the food box.
"Yes, young master." Just as Ru Shuang agreed, Sun Chun took his food box and knocked on the west wing of Lee's's residence.
A candle was lit in the room. Lee's had a high pillow in his hands, he was looking out the window in a daze, watching Sun Chun go in, his eyes lighting up.
"Sun Chun, why did you come in? Where's Xia Li?"
"Reporting to Aunt, Little Li was angry at me. Because I had put a sleeping pill in her medicine and she woke up to find out. She was worried that I wouldn't be able to take care of you, so she ran out."
Sun Chun looked at Lee's, and intentionally told her what had just happened.
"Little Li has always been worried about me, your mother. I've troubled you!" Lee's laughed helplessly, and could not help but look outside.
"Aunt, don't worry, with Lei Ke around, Little Li will be fine. This is a medicinal soup that and Ru Shuang found and gathered together with the doctors, and they prepared it according to the medicinal formula that Little Li wrote for you."
"There will be external medicine later. This is the amount of medicine for more than 20 days. Just as lady said, after 20 days, you can walk." Ru Shuang added, following behind Sun Chun.
"Then I'll be troubling you!" I have always taken care of mother and daughter, all thanks to you! " Lee's was so grateful that hot tears filled his eyes.
"Aunt, the medicine for your leg is ready, Ru Shuang specially brought it from the doctor, I'll feed you, come."
Sun Chun said, holding the medicine bowl, taking out a spoon to scoop the soup, blowing on it, he personally brought it to Lee's's mouth.
"Auntie, you can drink."
"This, this cannot be tolerated. I can drink by myself." Lee's was overwhelmed by the favor, he wanted to drink it himself no matter what.
"Aunty, right now, you and I have long been family. We have long since separated, so you don't have to be a stranger. Come, drink the medicine." Sun Chun advised again.
"Madame, are you going to let our young master hold the spoon like this all the time?" Ru Shuang looked at Lee's's troubled expression and asked.
"Alright, I'll drink." Lee's was a little embarrassed as he drank all the soup.
Sun Chun secretly glanced at Ru Shuang coldly, and she immediately lowered her head respectfully.
Lee's did not refuse anymore and focused on drinking the medicine. After a while, he finished the entire bowl of soup.
"Madam, here are some herbs for you to apply. I'll help you apply the medicine!" Ru Shuang then personally kneeled on the ground, and carefully spread the medicinal herbs that had been chopped and mixed together on Lee's's feet.
"It's been hard on you all. You still have to serve this old woman." Other than Xia Li, the Lee's had never been served by anyone. They were anxious and panicked like a frightened rabbit, ready to run away at any time.
"Madam, you don't need to think about anything else. Recover well and rest more, this way, you can get off the bed earlier and walk. You can also go see Miss Xia Li." Ru Shuang advised Lee's.
"Alright, alright." Lee's nodded his head again and again. His gaze unconsciously looked out of the window, wanting to walk down to the ground.
Sun Chun stood at the side, looking at Lee's, she was extremely satisfied with the situation ahead. As long as she still had hope in her heart, she would have the motivation to live a good life, so her legs might really recover soon.
Xia Li was so angry that she ran out, she thought that Sun Chun would immediately chase after him, but she had not expected that after waiting for a long time, other than for Lei Ke, her hopes had still failed, and she was alone and depressed.
"Lei Ke, where's Sun Chun? Why isn't he here?" Xia Li stood outside for a long time, looking at the pitch black sky, he could not help but ask Lei Ke.
"The young master..." Before Lei Ke could finish, he was interrupted by Xia Li.
"Alright, you don't have to say anymore. He already sent you here, so he definitely doesn't want to come here himself. I'm tired, let's go back." Xia Li said as he turned and ran back.
"Hey, Miss Xia Li!" In his heart, Lei Ke was truly wronged on behalf of his young master. This Miss Xia Li was too impatient, she did not even give him a chance to explain.
When Xia Li ran back into the courtyard, the west wing was brightly lit, and from time to time, sounds of laughter would be heard. Xia Li then walked in.
Under the cover of the candle flame, Sun Pure Zheng carried a bowl of sweet soup and personally fed the Lee's spoonful by spoonful. Ru Shuang, who was standing to the side as usual, watched the entire scene indifferently.
As he stood guard at the door, the little complaint he had made to Sun Chun just now had already disappeared without a trace. Some were simply moved, he had melted the coldness in her heart, and had also let her understand that it was actually her that needed to grow.
