Tomb raiding: Trying to become a little painter

"Hmm, there's something wrong with the little Qilin's body. There are too many impurities in it, like toxins that were forcibly injected into it and have been in the bloodstream for too long, making them difficult to clear."

Qin Henian didn't hide it; he could tell at a glance that the impurities in Zhang Qilin's body were a fusion of modern chemical products and ancient artifacts.

"What should we do then? Henian, do you have any way to help the mute? If you have a way, just say it. Tell the blind man whatever you need or what difficulties you have. As long as the blind man can do it, he will do his best to complete it!"

After hearing Qin Henian's explanation, Hei Xiazi realized that things were not so simple. He was still a little worried about his brother whom he had known for so long, so he quickly said to him.

"The toxins are quite complex and have been mixed with him for some time, so they are not easy to expel in a short time and need to be expelled slowly."

Looking at Zhang Qilin's handsome face, Qin Henian's expression turned slightly cold. These kinds of inexplicable toxins are usually forced into the bodies of cubs. If toxins are added, the cubs will definitely experience great pain and torment, not to mention that the previous cubs hadn't even awakened their true forms.

I really don't know which hateful guy dared to bully a cub like this!

You must know that it is extremely difficult for these ancient divine beasts to reproduce. Some beasts eventually returned to chaos without leaving behind any offspring. How could they tolerate such a creature that bullies its young!

"Don't let him know who it is, or I'll definitely beat him to a pulp!" Qin Henian thought silently to himself.

"Exhaust it? How do you mean exhaust it? He Nian, you've come all this way to our doorstep, you must have a way, right?"

Hei Xiazi stood beside Zhang Qilin, watching his seemingly mute brother. He had witnessed the entire chain of reactions in his brother's expression, from blank to questioning, then confusion, then a dazed look, then a bright, determined gaze... He understood his brother's feelings, so he immediately asked Qin Henian a question.

"There are solutions, but they are a bit difficult to implement in this context."

Qin Henian glanced at Zhang Qilin, then at Hei Xiazi. In ancient times, the methods for resolving bloodline issues among various races were actually quite simple, but for this world, they were incredibly difficult…

"Is it difficult to operate here? He Nian, how about the blind man moves you two to a more comfortable spot? What do you think?"

Hei Xiazi lowered his head, turned his body, and spoke to Qin Henian.

“It doesn’t seem to be working!”

Qin Henian sighed and replied to Hei Xiazi's words.

Then Qin Henian lifted his foot and walked to stand opposite Zhang Qilin, looking at him face to face at close range. He then raised his fair and slender hand, made a V-sign, and waved it in front of Zhang Qilin.

There are three ways to eliminate toxins from your body!

"The first method is to use any adult Qilin divine beast from your Qilin clan, a few drops of its blood to expel it. Apply half a drop to the area between your eyebrows every day, without washing it off. After seven days, when the bloodstains turn black, it means the expulsion has been successful."

"The second method is quite straightforward: forcefully remove it with external force!"

"The third method is to use a human with the bloodline of the Qilin who has not yet successfully awakened to transfer your toxins. Of course, this method is a bit too much for humans. Unawakened humans are very fragile, and if a large amount of toxins is forcibly transferred, the consequences will be worse than death."

Qin Henian explained three methods in one breath, then withdrew his hand from in front of Zhang Qilin, looking at him calmly and waiting for his decision.

The wait has been rather long. Perhaps the other party is still considering which method to choose, or perhaps they already have an answer but are hesitant to make a decision...

"Second type!"

Suddenly, a cold, icy voice rang out. Qin Henian, who was nearby, frowned slightly upon hearing it, but quickly smoothed it out.

Hearing this, Black Bear, who was a step or two away, immediately showed an expression of disapproval on his face.

"Dumb guy, the second method is to forcibly remove it from the body. Putting aside your Zhang family's Qilin bloodline, we don't even know how to do this forced removal method!"

On the surface, Hei Xiazi's words implied disapproval, suggesting that Zhang Qilin's chosen method was flawed and difficult to implement. However, he was actually relaying a message to Qin Henian, implying that the fact that Qin Henian could suggest such a method meant he was capable of doing it.

After all, a guy who can make both the Qilin and the Pixiu behave properly and politely must be no pushover!

What Hei Xiazi said was indeed true. In the fragments of his memories, Zhang Qilin did not find anyone in his Zhang family who could transform on their own. Immediately, Zhang Qilin's eyes went blank again, but this time his gaze fell on the person opposite him.

"Cough cough...cough cough...there's no need to look at me like that!"

Tsk, why does this little Qilin act so strangely after considering my proposal?

Why is he being stared at? Qin Henian was a little puzzled. Logically speaking, helping the cubs was something that adult beasts like them should do, but he wasn't a member of the Qilin clan, so what could he do?

"Well then, I just checked on the little Qilin's condition. The toxins in his body are quite mixed. If we were to forcibly remove them, it wouldn't be possible to succeed in just one or two days. Moreover, removing them might even harm his body and damage his foundation! How about I observe him for a while and try to remove them using the energy circulating in his body?"

Qin Henian felt that since the other party was still young, forcibly removing all the toxins might damage the foundation of its Qilin body. He knew that damaging the foundation of a young cub before it grew up could have a significant impact on its future...

"Observe for a period of time? Great! Of course! As long as the mute gets better and his health improves, whatever you say goes, He Nian!"

"but..."

After hearing Qin Henian's explanation, Hei Xiazi's mind raced. He smiled like a little chrysanthemum, but he still had some ulterior motives. As he spoke, he moved even closer to Qin Henian.

"But what?"

Qin Henian felt something was off. Looking at the guy's smug expression, his heart skipped a beat, and he sensed something was wrong.

"However... He Nian said before that the blind man and the mute man are both little brats, so can we two little brats ask He Nian to take care of us?"

Hei Xiazi was wearing sunglasses in broad daylight, and the sunlight was shining on his sunglasses lenses, causing some reflection. Suddenly, Hei Xiazi turned his head to look at Qin Henian, and the reflected light happened to shine on the other's eyes. In an instant, Hei Xiazi saw the other's pupils suddenly contract. Instinctively, Hei Xiazi raised his lenses to shift the light to a higher position.

"Alright! I'll stay here and live with you! I figured you two cubs have just been awakened and probably don't quite know how to switch between your senses and use your abilities yet, so I'll stay and teach you!"
