Mo Chuan looked at her strange eyes and shivered. He shook his head without even thinking and said, "This is bad!"
Chen Ning began to giggle. She took out an incense burner and opened the lid. She threw in a normal looking grey herb and lit it on fire.
Mo Chuan thought that she was burning incense, so he didn't mind.
The incense burner released a faint white smoke that filled the room. A slightly spicy smell filled his nose and Mo Chuan couldn't help sneezing twice.
"Ning 'er, what are you burning? Is it poisonous? "
"This is ginger. Hee, hee, don't tell me you don't even know ginger?" She looked at him with a teasing smile.
"Who says I don't know it!" Mo Chuan's face turned slightly red and he turned his head away.
Chen Ning did not say anything else and just stared at the incense burner, occasionally sprinkling some powder inside.
Mo Chuan felt it was more and more strange. He didn't know what she was doing, but he knew that even if he asked, she wouldn't tell him.
Not long from now, he would know the answer to this mystery.
After a while, the fire in the burner was extinguished. Chen Ning opened the lid and gathered the remaining powder inside before looking up at Mo Chuan.
"I'm going to extract the venom from those snakes now. Do you want to stay here and watch?"
As soon as her voice fell, it was like Mo Chuan's butt had been stabbed. He jumped up with a sou sound and disappeared in front of her.
Chen Ning looked at the two doors that were still shaking and she couldn't help bending over in laughter.
Mo Chuan stood at the door and heard her silver bell like laughter. He gritted his teeth in hate.
This little girl, she actually dared to laugh at him. Humph, once she's done, see how he'll take care of her!
Chen Ning closed the door and returned to the room. She followed the method Gu Qingze taught her and began to concentrate on her work.
Mo Chuan could hear rustling sounds coming from the room, but he couldn't guess what she was busy with.
Suddenly, his ears moved and he looked at the door to the yard.
"Reporting to the emperor, this subordinate has found Zhui Feng." A secret guard appeared in the shadows at the door and respectfully replied.
"Where is he?" Mo Chuan knit his brows.
"Zhui Feng, he ….. He is currently bathing." The secret guard hesitated before replying.
"Bathing?" Mo Chuan almost suspected that he had heard wrong. After a pause, he said, "Have him come see this one! Immediately! Immediately! "His voice was already very strict.
This damn Zhui Feng, he had been by his side for so many years, but he couldn't even tell what was important, actually rushing to take a bath at this time!
Mo Chuan could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.
"Yes, yes!" The Shadow Guard agreed and hurriedly retreated.
After a while, there was a wet person in the yard.
He looked as if he had just been fished out of the river. Water was dripping from head to toe, and his clothes were clinging tightly to his body. He looked extremely battered.
If it wasn't for Mo Chuan's sharp eyes, he wouldn't have believed that this drenched fellow was the meticulously combed Zhui Feng.
"Zhui Feng, what happened? Zhui Feng? "
Mo Chuan's brows knit together. There seemed to be a stench in the air that was becoming thicker and thicker. He sniffed and found that the smell was coming from Zhui Feng.
"This subordinate …..
Zhui Feng's head was lowered and his voice was low, filled with indescribable frustration.
