I arranged a marriage for you, not made you invincible under a disguise.
Chapter 82: They're coming to get you!
The assassins had their own speculations about the Temple of Angels using poison to control them.
A small percentage of the many assassins are skilled in drug production, and it's not difficult to discover this.
However, they only talked about it in private and dared not mention it openly.
After all, their lives were in the hands of the Temple of Angels.
Some people simply did not believe that the Temple of Angels had poisoned them, and even thought it was a rumor deliberately spread by the Temple Lord.
The purpose was to instill fear in them of the Temple of Angels, so that they would not dare to leave the Temple of Angels without permission.
Having spent so many years in the Angel Temple, Xiao Hua had naturally heard the rumors.
He didn't care whether the rumors were true or false, nor did he care whether he was poisoned.
He believed that the Temple of Angels had saved his life and that the Temple of Angels had the right to take it back at any time.
Knowing this all along, Xiaohua wasn't surprised when Shen Sixi mentioned it, and nodded hesitantly.
Xiaohua: "I guess you could say I know."
Xiao Hua told Shen Sixi what she knew.
Shen Sixi nodded thoughtfully.
At this moment, Old Huang returned with Yu Chaodi and Shen Tu Rong.
Old Huang didn't have any suitable clothes for them to change into, so they were still wearing the same outfits they had before.
I just quickly washed up, so I'm not in such a mess anymore.
As soon as she returned, Shen Tu Rong ran to Shen Sixi's side and hugged her arm tightly.
Yu Chaodi also silently stood to the right rear of Shen Sixi.
Neither of them had ever experienced anything like this before, and they were terrified. They could only feel a little safe by clinging to Shen Sixi.
But Shen Sixi had important things to do and didn't have time to protect them; leaving them here would be too dangerous.
"Let Xiaohua take you back to the hotel," Shen Sixi suggested.
Old Huang said impatiently, "Quickly, send them both away. Not just anyone can enter my medicinal herb garden! I won't be responsible if they accidentally eat something poisonous!"
The two were reluctant to leave, but they could tell that Shen Sixi had things to do and knew that their presence would only bother her.
They didn't press Shen Sixi about what she was going to do, nor did they investigate the strange herb garden or the old man.
Anyway, they trust Shen Sixi unconditionally, so whatever Shen Sixi does must be a good thing.
Shen Sixi didn't tell them too much, which must have been for their sake.
"Okay." Shen Tu Rong reluctantly let go of Shen Sixi's arm.
Shen Tu Rong: "Sister Xi, please be careful and come back to us as soon as possible."
Yu Chaodi: "Sister, we're waiting for you at the hotel."
Shen Sixi gave them a reassuring look: "Don't worry."
Escorted by Xiaohua, the two left the herb garden, turning back every few steps.
After everyone had left, Old Huang couldn't help but snort, "I'm practically your servant now. How can you order around an old man like me around like that!"
Although Old Huang has a full head of white hair, he doesn't have many wrinkles on his face.
He cursed with great vigor, effortlessly chased away birds with a broom, stayed up all night preparing the antidote, and was still full of energy and looked no older than usual when dawn broke.
If his hair hadn't turned completely white, Shen Sixi wouldn't have mistaken him for an old man.
Shen Sixi ignored his complaints and calmly said, "I need Moonlight Millet, but you don't seem to have any here."
"What do you need Moonstone for? You—you've got a clue?"
Old Huang was shocked and asked repeatedly, "Xiao Hua was also poisoned by that kind of poison? Are you sure? I've only been gone a few minutes, and you've already figured out what materials you need to develop an antidote?"
Old Huang was extremely surprised.
After discovering the poison, he also tried to develop an antidote.
There was no particular purpose; it was just an itch to try it out, a hobby for someone who works as a doctor.
After spending a long time without finding a clue, he gave up.
At that time, Xiaoqi's eyes had not yet recovered, and his focus was still on treating Xiaoqi's eyes.
He always felt that it was easier to detoxify Xiao Qi than to detoxify the Lord of the Angel Temple.
The poison that the Lord of the Angel Temple had searched for among the world's most famous doctors to find a cure for, Shen Sixi figured out how to make an antidote in just a few minutes.
Shen Sixi rarely showed a troubled expression: "I can only think about how to make the antidote. As for the kind I want... I still need to think about it some more."
She didn't dwell on it too much: "Let's get rid of the poison in Xiaohua's body first."
Old Huang was a little doubtful about life and cautiously asked, "Little girl, what exactly do you do?"
Could it be that she escaped from some secluded sect to gain experience?
Shen Sixi replied without hesitation: "Retired."
Shen Sixi: "Come on, go find me some moonstone millet. You promised to be my assistant."
Old Huang was in a daze for a moment before Shen Sixi urged him to go out and find Moonlight Millet.
—He really did become her assistant.
After a while, Xiaohua returned after seeing the person off.
When he returned, the antidote was not yet ready, but Elder Huang and Shen Sixi were busy working on it in an orderly manner.
He didn't make a sound to disturb her, and silently stood not far from Shen Sixi.
Few dared to venture into Huang Lao's herb garden, Xiao Hua knew this, but she remained extremely vigilant, silently protecting Shen Sixi.
Time passed little by little.
As Elder Huang let out a long sigh of relief, his expression complex, the antidote was ready.
Now, Old Huang was truly in awe of Shen Sixi.
Huang Lao: "The younger generation is truly formidable, the younger generation is truly formidable."
Master Huang never accepted disciples. Because of his extraordinary talent, he was always arrogant and looked down on people with even a little talent who wanted to become his disciples.
For a moment, he had the idea of taking Shen Sixi as his apprentice and passing on all his knowledge to her.
On second thought, Shen Sixi was much more capable than him.
It would be more appropriate for Shen Sixi to take him as a disciple.
Old Huang looked somewhat embarrassed.
Shen Sixi paid no attention to Huang Lao's complicated feelings and casually pushed the medicine to Xiao Hua.
Shen Sixi: "Let's try it."
Xiaohua drank it without blinking or hesitating.
It was as if even if Shen Sixi gave him poison, he would drink it without hesitation, not spilling a single drop.
After drinking the antidote, Xiaohua felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, and beads of cold sweat appeared on her fair face.
He looked up at Shen Sixi.
Old Huang was also surprised: "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the medicine?"
Shen Sixi calmly touched Xiaohua's wrist; she was quite confident in what she had made.
"It's nothing, I just need a rest."
Xiao Hua nodded, seemingly trusting Shen Sixi completely, and patiently circulated her breath.
Even under these circumstances, Xiaohua remained vigilant.
Hearing the rustling of leaves, he jumped to his feet: "Who!?"
Shen Sixi narrowed her eyes, her gaze falling in a certain direction.
Old Huang shouted sternly, "Are you never going to stop? Do you all think this place is a tourist attraction? Do you think I, Old Huang, am someone to be trifled with?!"
Old Huang: "Get out here! Otherwise, I'll make sure you die without even knowing how!"
Shen Sixi didn't waste any words. She moved her fingers, preparing to throw the silver needles.
At the same time, a person covered in wounds fell from a tree branch.
"It's me, Captain! Elder Huang, don't make a move yet, I have something important to say!"
Little Flower: "Husky? What, it's you?"
Zang Shiqi corrected him: "Zang! My name is Zang Shiqi! Captain, when will you ever pronounce my name correctly even once!"
"Never mind that, I'm here to warn you. Run! The Palace Master is coming to arrest you!"
