My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 38: Everything Is Ready

On their way back, Lan Ningshuang looked surprised and said, “Giant snake and a small white creature, is this the secret of the Black Mist Forest? This place is indeed dangerous. But young master, how were you unharmed after being thrown by the explosion?”

“At that time, the senior serpent above my head dripped a drop of water on me. The water droplet turned into mist and healed my injuries in no time. But I don’t know what it was,” replied Qin Feng, rubbing his chin.

At this moment, Cang Feilan, who had been silent all along, spoke up, “Dragon Saliva has the ability to heal injuries and strengthen the body. It seems that the giant snake in the Black Mist Forest is about to transform into a dragon.”

Qin Feng stopped in his tracks, his face stiffening. Damn, does that mean the drop of water was saliva?

Fortunately, it was a female snake, so he found it somewhat more acceptable.

Qin Feng was comforting himself when he suddenly noticed Cang Feilan’s left arm, still as flawless and fair as ever.

But back then, she got injured while saving him. Moreover, when they encountered the ghost cultivator in the city, she was poisoned by a ghost toxin. In just a moment, the poison had healed. How was that possible?

Qin Feng’s mind was filled with countless thoughts. Combining it with what was said about Dragon Saliva, an answer seemed to be emerging.

“This is Dragon Saliva. Apply a drop on your hand, and your injuries will heal,” Cang Feilan said, taking out a small jade bottle from her pocket and tossing it to Lan Ningshuang.

“Dragon Saliva is a precious and rare substance. It’s hard to come by even in the Imperial City. Are you really willing to give it to me?” Lan Ningshuang’s expression was complex.

“We have plenty of it at home. Go ahead and use it,” Cang Feilan said calmly, though her eyes twitched involuntarily when Lan Ningshuang applied a drop on her hand.

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” Cang Feilan took back the jade bottle.

Qin Feng, watching all this, heaved a sigh of relief.

I thought Miss Cang was a dragon in her true form, but she’s just wealthy. Still, Dragon Saliva truly lives up to its reputation. Not only can it heal injuries, but it can also strengthen the body.

By the way, can this have a body strengthening properties to certain parts?

Qin Feng looked down at a certain area, a bold idea forming in his mind. Given his relationship with Miss Cang, borrowing ten or twenty drops of Dragon Saliva shouldn’t be a problem, right?

“Miss Cang…”

“Get lost!” Cang Feilan saw Qin Feng’s movement and there was a trace of embarrassment and anger in her eyes.

I haven’t said anything yet, why is she angry? Women are truly incomprehensible. Qin Feng shrank his head, deciding not to bring up the matter of borrowing Dragon Saliva again.

The three of them returned to Jinyang City, arriving late at night. Fortunately, there was no curfew in the city, or else they might not have been able to enter through the city gates.

Qin Feng bid farewell to Cang Feilan, but for some reason, she didn’t reply. Before leaving, she even glared at him, leaving him utterly bewildered.

Back at the new Qin residence, everyone was already asleep.

When Qin Feng and Lan Ningshuang passed the pavilion by the pond, they saw a white figure sitting quietly in a wheelchair, gazing at the clear water in front of her. Her lonely silhouette tugged at the heartstrings.

“Miss Lan.”

“Young master, what’s the matter?”

“Is it truly impossible to heal your miss’s injuries? What if we use Dragon Saliva?” Qin Feng asked.

Lan Ningshuang replied despondently, “Young master, you might not know. Although Dragon Saliva is precious, it wouldn’t be difficult for the Liu family to obtain it with their capabilities. But my miss’s injuries are beyond ordinary imagination. To heal them is as difficult as ascending to the heavens. Patriarch Liu and Old Master Liu have tried numerous methods, all in vain.”

Qin Feng sighed and patted Lan Ningshuang’s shoulder. “Don’t lose hope. There’s nothing impossible in this world as long as there are determined people. There will be a solution for your miss’s injuries. Even if there seems to be no way, I will find one.”

“Okay.” Lan Ningshuang nodded. For some reason, even though young master’s words were simple words of comfort, deep down, she was willing to believe in them.

“I’ll go back and freshen up before sleeping. You stay here with your miss,” Qin Feng said, turning around to leave.

“Young master, do you need me to assist you with bathing?”

Qin Feng staggered, his body freezing in place, clearly struggling. But in the end, he waved his hand and left alone.

Lan Ningshuang watched his conflicted figure and a faint smile curved her lips.

She strolled over to Liu Jianli’s side and slowly began to recount her experiences after leaving the Qin residence.

“Miss, Young master is a responsible man.”

“Mm.”

“Miss, Young Master said he would find a way to heal your injuries.”

“Mm.”

“Miss, I believe the Young Master can do it.”

Moonlight spilled like water, silent and serene. Liu Jianli gazed at the bright moon reflected on the lake, her beautiful eyes also mirroring the moon.

“Mm,” barely audible.

The next day, Qin Feng was awakened from his sleep by the noisy sounds outside his room.

He leisurely opened his eyes and looked out the window; it was already midday.

After dressing, he pushed open the door and learned from Qing’er that the commotion was because his father had returned.

Jinyang City to Qiyang Town was a hundred miles away. Considering the time it took to purchase and transport goods, it was about this time.

Qin Feng arrived at the Qin residence’s gate, where his father was busy instructing the servants to unload the goods.

Due to the cold weather and the blankets covering them, the fish on the carriage remained fresh.

Qin Feng exchanged greetings with Xing Sheng.

Qin Jian’an heard the noise and walked over, smiling, “Feng’er, your method of refrigeration really works. Jinyang City is close to the mountains, and there are no rivers nearby. These fish are scarce. If we sell them, we can surely make a good profit!”

“Too shallow!”

“What’s wrong? Did father say something wrong?” Qin Jian’an looked puzzled.

“Selling some fish can only earn a few coins. How can we revive Moonlit Pavilion? If we want to make money, we have to make it big. Did you buy the Cold Star Grass?” Qin Feng pointed to the three carriages behind’

“They’re all there. I was planning to unload two of them to store the fish. After all, these aquatic plants aren’t useful.”

Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. He almost got tricked again by this scheming man.

To make a perfect hot pot base, Cold Star Grass was essential!

“Dad, have someone bring a basket of Cold Star Grass and a few fish to the kitchen.”

“What are you going to do?”

“Naturally, I’m going to cook.”

Qin Jian’an frowned, “A gentleman stays away from the kitchen; why is a scholar like you meddling in these matters? Order the servants to do it.”

“The thing I want to make has never been done before. I need to adjust the seasoning myself.” Qin Feng persisted.

“No, I don’t agree. It’s not easy for the Qin family to have a scholar like you. If news spreads that you’re working in the kitchen, what kind of reputation is that?”

“Dad, those account books from the study, I wonder how Mother would feel if she knew.”

“You, get to work quickly! Help my son move these things into the kitchen!” Qin Feng found the right way to persuade his father.
