I arranged a marriage for you, not made you invincible under a disguise.

The garden was quiet for a while.

Shen Sixi seemed oblivious to the impending danger, examining the pile of medicinal herbs with great interest.

Old Huang kept looking at Shen Sixi, his mind racing with conflicting thoughts.

Who exactly is she, and how could she know such a secret?

She seemed oblivious to everything when she came in. Was he mistaken?

She asked for the formula right off the bat, and even wanted the medicinal herbs from his garden. Was she really that confident?

He spent years trying to create an antidote, yet she, knowing his identity, was confident she could do what he couldn't?

Does she truly possess the ability, or is she simply too arrogant?

Well, it doesn't seem like there's any harm in letting her try.

However, the recipe for Half Moon could not be given to her casually, in case she used it to harm someone.

Old Huang thought it over and over, but couldn't make up his mind.

Finally, thinking of the child, he gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay!"

Old Huang: "I will tell you the formula and agree to your conditions. But if you can't develop the antidote, you'll have to stay in my herb garden for the rest of your life."

Shen Sixi agreed without hesitation: "Okay."

Old Huang added, "Once you get the formula for Half Moon, you can't use it to harm people."

Shen Sixi: "Of course I wouldn't harm anyone casually."

The implication is that she wouldn't use it to harm innocent people.

Old Huang understood the implication in Shen Sixi's words, hesitated for a moment, and then said nothing.

There are some trivial matters in this world that require the help of half a moon.

For example, those people in the Temple of Angels.

Old Huang then warned, "Since you know who I am, I don't need to say anything more. I hope you keep your promise, otherwise..."

Shen Sixi: "I always keep my word."

"it is good."

Old Huang took a deep breath, took out paper and pen, and quickly wrote down more than a dozen medicinal herbs.

Shen Sixi took it casually, looking at it from left to right, her eyes growing brighter with each glance.

Shen Sixi couldn't help but praise, "This recipe is truly ingenious!"

"Of course," Old Huang said smugly.

Shen Sixi: "No wonder it's called Half Moon, so that's what it uses. Oh, these two originally non-toxic herbs mixed together can produce unexpected effects."

It took Old Huang half a year just to make the half-moon. If he hadn't accidentally hurt someone with it, he would probably have been proud of it forever.

Instead of doing it this way, keeping it a secret from everyone that he made the half-moon.

Upon hearing Shen Sixi's words, Old Huang immediately recalled how excited he had been back then.

He said with emotion, "I put a lot of effort into this half-moon."

The next moment, he remembered that the antidote for Half Moon had taken him even more effort, and he shut his mouth with a grim expression.

"I've given you the formula, but can you make the antidote?" Huang Laohu said with a stern face.

Before Shen Sixi could answer, he sneered, "It's okay if you can't make it. Even I have no clue, so I won't blame you if you can't. As long as you stay here, try out the medicine for me, gather herbs, and help out, I won't make things too difficult for you."

"You should find someone else to help you," Shen Sixi said calmly, putting down the recipe for Half Moon.

Old Huang paused for a moment: "Young lady, you've got quite the nerve. Tell me, what's your line of thinking?"

"I won't go into the details of the plan; I'll just tell you what medicine we're still missing."

Shen Sixi lowered her head, picked and chose from Huang Lao's pile of medicinal herbs, took out a few that she didn't need, and then walked to the herb field next to her.

As if picking strawberries in a fruit orchard, she casually picked one precious medicinal herb after another.

At first, Old Huang was heartbroken, but later his expression gradually became serious, and he followed Shen Sixi closely.

It wasn't for surveillance, but rather because they had figured out something about it.

Shen Sixi clutched a handful of freshly picked medicinal herbs and casually tossed them into the pile of herbs that Old Huang had prepared in advance for drying.

“Blue holly, star flower, selfheal... add these and you have the antidote for Half Moon.”

Old Huang quickly stepped forward to check.

"That's it, that's it!"

Old Huang is Old Huang after all; those few years weren't wasted. He was just a little short of achieving his goal.

After seeing the recipe provided by Shen Sixi, one knows it will be effective without even trying it.

He exclaimed as if he had found a treasure: "Great, great!"

Who would have thought that a young girl who accidentally wandered into the garden would inadvertently solve the mystery that had been troubling him for years?

Old Huang was still unable to calm down for a long time. Suppressing his excitement, he solemnly thanked Shen Sixi and asked, "May I ask this young lady's name?"

Shen Sixi: "My surname is Shen."

Old Huang: "Miss Shen, I owe you a favor. If you need any help in the future, just come to me. Don't worry, with me here, those people from the Temple of Angels won't dare to make things difficult for you anymore."

Shen Sixi smiled slightly: "I can handle the people from the Angel Temple myself. You just need to remember your promise."

Old Huang gave a wry smile.

His medicine...

Mr. Huang said helplessly, "Miss Shen, don't worry, you can come and get it anytime you need."

At the same time, the sound of stumbling footsteps came from not far away.

The footsteps are getting closer.

Old Huang frowned, his expression instantly turning grim.

What's going on today?

Has someone broken in again?

"Who's there!" Old Huang was determined to teach this person a lesson.

Shen Sixi also turned her head to look curiously.

First, she saw a flock of startled birds flapping their wings and flying away in all directions. Then she saw a familiar person—it was Xiaohua.

Xiao Hua originally had a cold face and a fierce demeanor, as if she had come for revenge.

Upon seeing Shen Sixi, he was taken aback, then breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you alright?" Xiao Hua asked Shen Sixi.

Like Shen Sixi, he was also chased here by people from the Angel Temple.

Unlike Shen Sixi, he knew about Elder Huang and had no intention of trespassing into Elder Huang's medicinal herb garden.

Although he was still recovering from serious injuries, he was more than capable of dealing with a group of people from the Temple of Angels on his own, so he didn't need to hide inside.

It was the people from the Temple of Angels who told him that Shen Sixi had broken into the garden.

Xiao Hua knew all too well what would happen if he broke into Huang Lao's garden. He also knew that the reason they told him Shen Sixi was in the herb garden was to lure him there and then use Huang Lao to kill him.

Xiao Hua still went to the herb garden. His life was saved by Shen Sixi. He said that he would protect Shen Sixi forever.

Old Huang is very strong, and he is no less capable. He will do everything in his power to save Shen Sixi.

To everyone's surprise, Shen Sixi was standing there perfectly fine.

Xiao Hua did not describe her complicated emotional journey to Shen Sixi, but silently stood behind Shen Sixi.

"Little Flower!?" Old Huang also recognized Little Flower.

"Little Flower, you dare to come here again? I haven't even settled the score with you for destroying my medicinal herb field a year ago!"

Old Huang looked at Xiao Hua, then at Shen Sixi. What was with Xiao Hua acting like a protector?

Shen Sixi said that the Angel Temple was chasing her, but now it seems that the two of them are clearly in cahoots.

Shen Sixi explained, "Xiaohua has left the Angel Palace and is now with me."

"So, Mr. Huang, please don't lay a hand on Xiaohua. It wouldn't be good if you ruined the flowers and plants."

After all, she now has a share in this medicinal herb garden.

Before Old Huang could speak, Shen Sixi pressed her advantage, saying:

"By the way, didn't we just say that I can take the medicine from your garden whenever I need it? Look at Xiaohua's injuries, I really need it right now."

Old Huang's eye twitched slightly again.
