I am the old, fiery-faced man from the senior department.

"……gentlemen."

Upon seeing the figure surrounded by the Imperial Guards, Bai Zhou rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

"Oh! It really is Mr.!"

"Put them down! Put down your weapons!"

He pushed aside the imperial guards blocking his way and ran towards the figure.

"Your Majesty! Be careful!"

A guard called out anxiously to the daylight.

Behind them stood such a huge beast!

"..."

Chi Long's eyes twitched as he watched his nephew run off happily.

It goes without saying who leaked the information.

"Hmm. The recovery is going well."

Embracing the approaching Bai Zhou, Xi looked up at the red dragon opposite her.

"What do you want to do, Eleven?"

"Don't do anything foolish, send His Majesty back."

"Eleventh Sister...you..."

All the immortals who had been hiding all around revealed themselves.

"..."

Great, everyone who was supposed to come has come.

"gentlemen……"

Hearing the call, Xi lowered her head and looked into those eyes full of joy.

"The perch from Wu and Yue is almost cooked. Would you like to come and try some with me?"

"Ok!"

The response during the day was incredibly swift.

Having achieved its desired result, the bluish-white tail, slightly excited, hooked onto the little tail.

"Where do you intend to take my Great Yan True Dragon? Such insolence! Do you consider us nothing?"

The red dragon squinted and shouted sharply.

She raised her hand to cover Bai Zhou's mouth, and Xi drew her blade.

"I'm taking him away today, and I'd like to see who dares to stop me!"

The sugar at Fifty-One is sweet.

"Sir, it's still raining. Do you think there will be more scaled creatures in the river today?"

"Sir, what would you like to eat? Plain congee and pickled vegetables? Would that be too bland?"

"Sir, where are we going today?"

"gentlemen……"

"gentlemen……"

"gentlemen……"

The sounds around me were as excited and noisy as a feathered beast seeing its parents return to the nest.

"The river water has only recently gathered, and the scaled beasts have not yet returned. There are no scaled beasts in the river right now."

"Fine meat and fish dishes are just so-so; plain porridge and pickled vegetables are much more flavorful."

"Don't you want to go to Wu and Yue today?"

Xi responded to these questions one by one, and even made a rare sarcastic remark about Bai Zhou at the end.

"Oh, how could that be? But wherever you want to go, sir, I'll go with you."

Xi turned her head away, refusing to meet the gaze of the eager daylight.

"Then hurry up and prepare, the radishes and greens have been waiting for you for a long time."

"Oh!"

Watching Bai Zhou excitedly run out of the inn with a painting containing Ah Yao and a vehicle, Xi felt quite content.

After drinking the warm water in her cup, Xi looked up again, her expression returning to calm.

"What are you here for?"

"Sigh, Eleven, at least I gave you some important information."

"You don't even thank me, and you won't even call me 'sister'."

Miaobi sat opposite her, then took out a piece of paper and handed it to her.

"what is this?"

Xi took it and glanced at it; it listed a bunch of medicinal herbs.

"This is Ah Xi's medicine, you idiot."

"You made a grand entrance, appearing in all your might and kidnapping Ah Xi, making him incredibly happy. Now we even have to handle your funeral arrangements. Do you know how ugly that old dragon's face looked?"

"Well, forget it, it's no use talking to you. What can I do? You're my sister."

Miaobi poured himself a cup of tea and said:

"Remember to make sure he takes this medicine on time, three times a day. He's already taken his morning dose; don't forget his lunch and dinner doses."

"Also, avoid spicy food. You can eat a little sugar, but only one hour after taking the medicine."

Miaobi seemed to realize she was being too long-winded, so she took out another piece of paper and tossed it to Xi.

Xi glanced at it and saw that there were more words written on it than on the prescription, with various precautions densely marked.

"This is so troublesome..."

"You do know what trouble is."

Miaobi looked at her with disdain.

"I mean, it's really a hassle to have you send it over. Of course I know these things should be considered."

"Alright, you know, so I won't say more. Here, this is a five-day supply. Don't skimp on the weight, and don't overcook it to reduce its medicinal properties. After you finish these five doses, drink another five doses and then you can stop taking the medicine. Someone will deliver the medicine to Wu Yue. Remember to have Ah Xi pick up the medicine when you reach Gou Wu."

"Alright, that's all I have to say. Remember this: don't get completely involved. Ah Xi... sigh, you'd better keep things in check."

"gone."

After placing several packages of medicinal herbs on the table, Miaobi got up and left.

After Miaobi left, Xi remained silent for a moment, then gathered the medicinal herbs on the table and left the room as well.

"gentlemen!"

As she stepped out of the guesthouse, Bai Zhou was sitting in his car, waving at her.

"Let's go, to Wu and Yue."

■

A light rain and gentle breeze, a leisurely and pleasant time.

The owls seemed to really enjoy the drizzly, cool weather, and kept running around with boundless energy.

but……

Xi frowned as she glanced at the still overcast sky.

While rain is a good thing for the land, it's not exactly good weather for people recovering from trauma.

"gentlemen?"

Bai Zhou turned around in confusion after his tail was tugged.

"come over."

Xi stared at him and pulled him in front of her.

He wasn't wearing a straw hat during the day, and the rain had already soaked his hair, leaving some watermarks on his forehead.

He's been getting soaked in the rain the whole time, is this kid crazy?

"Hmm, sir, what's wrong? Did the radishes and cabbages run too fast?"

He was suddenly tapped, and Bai Zhou covered his forehead, lost in thought.

"It's you."

Seeing that Bai Zhou was ignoring her again and starting to think about other things, Xi was slightly annoyed and tapped him again.

"Have you forgotten your own physical condition?"

"On a rainy day, the wind is cold and the air is damp. You're just standing there getting soaked without wearing a raincoat or a straw hat. Humph."

Xi angrily poked Bai Zhou's forehead, then picked up her brush to add a carriage to the simple car, capturing all the rainwater inside in the painting. Only after making the carriage dry and warm did she put down her brush with satisfaction.

"Don't worry about them, they'll find the next town."

She patted the mat beside her and looked towards the daytime.

"During this time, you just stay here and rest quietly."

"gentlemen……"

Although he was half-forced to lie down next to the artist, the boy smiled exceptionally brightly.

Xi was flustered by his laughter, so she raised her hand to pat him.
