Jian Yi scratched his head, looking a bit embarrassed. In fact, it was because the master had just woken up and he was so excited that he forgot about this matter. But of course, he wasn't going to admit it.
"What's wrong with me?" Tule Haojia looked at the two of them, completely at a loss as to what they were talking about. Was there something wrong with his body?
"Master, after we rescued you back then, we found that you had been poisoned by a gu worm. Your waking up now is just a stopgap measure. You'll fall into a coma again after the medicine wears off," Jian Yi explained Tule Haojia's situation in detail.
After hearing this, Tule Haojia fell into deep thought. There was actually a gu worm in his body. This was something he had never expected, and he had never seen the King of the Grassland or anyone else poison him with a gu.
Suddenly, Tule Haojia's eyes widened as if he had thought of something. Once, Shu Yi tortured him until he fainted. When he woke up, he was in the water dungeon. After waking up that time, he felt something was off about his body, but he didn't pay it much heed. Now that he thought about it, the gu worm must have been put in his body at that time.
"Do you know who poisoned you with the gu worm? The King of the Grassland?" After all, the mother gu was on the King of the Grassland.
"It wasn't the King of the Grassland..." Tule Haojia's face darkened. "It was Shu Yi, a general of the Grassland tribe who has always been at odds with me." He never thought that this Shu Yi would be involved with other countries and poison both him and the King of the Grassland with gu worms.
"So it was him!" Jian Yi had always thought it was the King of the Grassland. He never expected it to be this villain. It was really too lenient on him. They should have taught him a lesson when they went to rescue the master back then.
"It seems this matter needs to be carefully considered." Jing Xunchè was also a bit surprised. He had thought it was the King of the Grassland, but it turned out to be someone else.
"What are your plans next?" Jing Xunchè asked.
"What plans can I have? Of course, I'm just waiting to die," Tule Haojia said with a sarcastic smile. How many more days did he have to live? He had no plans at all.
"Don't be so discouraged. We've already found a way to save you. As long as we get the King of the Grassland's heart - blood, we can save you," Jing Xunchè said, looking at Tule Haojia's dejected figure.
"The King of the Grassland's heart - blood?" At this, Tule Haojia became interested. Whether they could get it or not was another matter. But the thought of causing trouble for the King of the Grassland really intrigued Tule Haojia.
"What's your plan?" Tule Haojia looked at Jing Xunchè and asked.
"We don't have a specific plan yet. We were going to discuss it together after you woke up," Jing Xunchè replied.
"The King of the Grassland is afraid of spicy food. He can't even stand a bit of it," Tule Haojia thought for a while and said. "Also... the King of the Grassland is afraid of slippery and slimy things, like snakes." As he spoke, Tule Haojia nodded. For now, this was all he could think of. It wouldn't be too late to say more if he remembered something later.
"I already knew he couldn't eat spicy food, but the King of the Grassland is afraid of snakes..." Jing Xunchè was speechless. Such a grown - up man was actually afraid of snakes. No, not just snakes. Slippery things like fish and earthworms counted too... Well, they could use this to scare him.
"Does he have any allergic reactions to anything?" If so, it would be great. They might be able to kill him with one blow and even get his heart - blood directly.
"I haven't heard of that. The things I know were learned when I was a kid. After that, I didn't stay in the Grassland tribe for a long time, so I don't know any more details," Tule Haojia was telling the truth. After all, he had been on the battlefield with the generals since he was ten years old.
Just as they were discussing, Mu Nan brought Lü Yun in. "Master, let Yun'er check Tule Haojia's body."
"Come in," Jing Xunchè nodded.
After Lü Yun came in and checked Tule Haojia, she discovered something extremely shocking.
Tule Haojia felt uncomfortable under Lü Yun's intense gaze. "What's wrong?" Could it be that he could only stay awake for one day?
"Nothing. I've just never seen such a healthy person," Lü Yun looked at Tule Haojia as if she had seen something extremely rare.
"Wh... what do you mean?" Tule Haojia was completely confused by Lü Yun's words. So was he in good condition or not?
Lü Yun saw what Tule Haojia was thinking and smiled. "Don't think too much. Your body is very healthy. It's just beyond my expectation. I thought you could stay awake for at most seven days, but you've exceeded that. Without any accidents, you can stay awake for half a month."
Lü Yun's words were like a reassurance for Jian Yi and the others. Fortunately, there was still time. As long as they could get the King of the Grassland's heart - blood within half a month, they could save Tule Haojia.
"Thank you, miss," Jian Yi bowed deeply to Lü Yun. She deserved this respect.
"You don't need to thank me. I'm only helping because of Sister Qie. But your master will have to drink medicine every day from now on," Lü Yun said. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to maintain his nutrition, and it would be useless for him to wake up.
"Okay, I understand," Jian Yi took the prescription written by Lü Yun and went to get the medicine.
After everyone left, Jing Xunchè sat down beside Tule Haojia's bed and looked at him leisurely.
"What's up? You're not planning to take revenge, are you?" Tule Haojia suddenly remembered that they used to be sworn enemies and had even fought battles against each other. Was this Jing Xunchè planning to get rid of him once and for all?
"Nothing. I just want to thank you for giving me such a big gift. I don't know how to repay you yet," Jing Xunchè said. Was he such a petty person? This Tule Haojia was really judging others by his own low standards. No wonder he wasn't liked by anyone.
"You don't need to thank me. It was originally a return gift from me. If it weren't for you, I might still be kept in the dark," Tule Haojia said. As he spoke, he thought of his deceased mother and clenched his fists.
"You don't need to be sad about your mother's death. As the saying goes, a gentleman takes his revenge in ten years. Well, you're not really a gentleman, but it doesn't matter. One day, you'll be able to kill the King of the Grassland," Jing Xunchè said.
Tule Haojia felt annoyed looking at Jing Xunchè's merciless mouth. He felt as if he had dug up Jing Xunchè's ancestral grave in his previous life. Why did he find this person so annoying?
"Hehe." Were these human words? Wouldn't a normal person console him? Why did this guy always speak so rudely?
"Forget it. I won't talk to you anymore. You should rest well. Qie'er is waiting for me at home. I won't chat with you anymore. I don't want Qie'er to worry about me," Jing Xunchè showed off his affection and then left without hesitation.
