CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED ONE
"Feifei, you really know Medicine?" Yanyan can't still get over it.
If she did not personally see how Feifei calmly handled the wounded man, she would have thought it was someone else who has done the quick treatment.
Feifei just smiled at Yanyan as they walked towards the gate. Its off work and Feifei wants to go home and sleep right away!
But, he needs to go to town and buy herbs for Mou Li's poison.
The poison initially is not that complicated. But currently, the poison is developing in a complicated mess.
The cure is actually simple if your familiar with how poison react with other poisons. You just need some common herbs with two or three rare ingredients.
The problem lies with the ratio.
Feifei can tell Mou Li took a lot of cure with the wrong proportion, thus making the poison even worse.
With the wrong ratio, the cure became poison in itself. Which further aggravates the principal poison.
Feifei can tell, Mou Li has been poisoned for a long time. So he must have already taken the cure but is poisoned again and again.
He should have built up an immunity against this poison. But his vitality is rapidly depleting. Which is the effect of the repeated intake of the poison.
With a considerable increase of dosage with every repeated intake, not to mention building immunity, his vitality is getting more weak and vulnerable.
Feifei is even surprised Mou Li is still alive up until now.
This cruel poison is used to control a person's capability. Like a restriction. Its as if the one who poisoned him has great fear of Mou Li.
Maybe Mou Li is aware he would be done for if he doesn't take the cure fast.
Fearing for his life, he must have indiscriminately been taking cures of wrong proportions.
So, Mou Li must be an unwilling follower under the control of someone.
And now, Mou Li is heading for a sure disaster if he is not cured soon.
But Feifei has to condition Mou Li's body first. He has to work on increasing his vitality to a level that could tolerate the cure's tyranny.
And that's the reason why he has to go to town. He needs the necessary herbs for body strengthening and vitality recuperation.
"Feifei?" Yanyan pinched Feifei's hand.
Feifei blinked his eyes as he looked at Yanyan with confusion.
"The wagon is here. Let's go."
"Yanyan, let's go to town. I need to buy some herbs."
Yanyan looked at him and then went inside the wagon.
When Feifei sat beside Yanyan, Yanyan paid the fare.
"All along, the signs are right in front of me."
Feifei : ????
"You have always loved to tinker with herbs. You even have an herbal garden! You make lots of potions of different kinds. You even add herbs to your food!" Yanyan exclaimed.
"You even give special medicated food to your haughty chicken and tyrant duck. Maybe that's why both of them are different from your other chickens and ducks."
Feifei laughed.
"Of course they are different! They are my family!"
Yanyan snorted.
"Do you really know Medicine?"
"I'm still learning."
"Learning? But you already move like an expert to me." Yanyan was puzzled.
"They even said you already sew the man's gaping skin close!"
Feifei smiled at Yanyan.
"When you think you have learned enough, there is always one more thing to learn."

That night at the Infirmary.
A shadow is lurking outside the window.
HOOT! HOOT!
Mou Li instantly opened his eyes and painstakingly raised himself up from the bed.
"Inform the Crown Prince, its done." Mou Li said as he looked at the window.
The shadow then slipped from one building to the next then was gone.
Mou Li took a deep breath.
He is tired of it all.
Suddenly, an image of a beauty slithered in his mind.
Mou Li smiled unconsciously.
He is just a prisoner and a slave. But for the first time in his life, he knows what it feels like to be treated like a human.
