As far as Luo Jin’an knew, there was no cure for the cold poison. However, Su Binglan had been working hard to treat it for him, so he would work hard to cooperate.
Luo Jin’an did not care about his life in the past, but he now did because he had her beside him. He wanted to live and be with Su Binglan to look after her. He cherished the days he spent with his wife but could not guarantee the cold poison would not take his life.
Previously, he dared not think anyone could cure him of the cold poison, but after hearing Su Binglan say she could, his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
Su Binglan did not wait for Luo Jin’an to say anything and said, “We’ll undoubtedly find the Purple Spirit Ginseng if we go into that ancient forest.”
Still, she knew they had a pressing matter: passing a piece of vital information to her brother. They needed to warn Lan Ruozhu about King Jian’s plan to attack the deceased royal’s mansion.
Hence, she quickly took a piece of paper and wrote a letter. Then she handed it to Blue Two, saying, “You and Blue Three must deliver this letter to my brother. Go to Su Teng Village as soon as possible.”
Su Binglan knew they were on a tight timeline. However, Lan Ruozhu was now
in good health and had an army under him. Su Binglan believed the mansion would be fine for now, even if King Jian attacked.
After finding the Purple Spirit Ginseng, She would return to Su Teng Village.
Su Binglan felt a strange aura after she and her husband entered the forest. She thought the forest was different from the ones she had been to before since she could feel faint fluctuations of spiritual energy there.
Moreover, she realized this place was full of mechanisms and traps when she entered. Of course, these things were useless against Su Binglan. Then she realized Luo Jin’an could quickly disarm these traps and knew their layouts. This shocked Su Binglan. “You know about these traps?”
“It just feels highly familiar.” Luo Jin’an seemed to remember some of these mechanisms and traps. Since that was the case, knowledge of disarming them surged within his mind. Even he was puzzled.
Su Binglan considered her situation and raised furrowed her brows.
‘Does Jin’an also have memories of a past soul? But he has always been the same person but with a different name. If he had another soul, must he recall its past like me? Is this the forest’s doing?’
Su Binglan was puzzled but could not figure it out. She stopped thinking about it since she could not figure it out. After all, the most important task now was to find the Purple Spirit Ginseng.
The young couple passed through layers of traps and finally found the herb on a cliff. However, Su Binglan also saw an eagle that was guarding the herb. It seemed extremely dangerous.
“That eagle seems to be guarding the Purple Spirit Ginseng.”
Generally speaking, such spiritual herbs should have guardian animals. Moreover, guardian animals were much more intelligent.
Su Binglan did not want to hurt such a precious animal, so getting the herb was challenging. She was hesitating to move when the eagle noticed her and tilted its head, looking at the young lady curiously.
Then the eagle’s cold and distant demeanor changed, and it trotted toward Su Binglan instead of flying.
‘Huh?!’ Su Binglan was stunned.
At that moment, Luo Jin’an instinctively stood before Su Binglan to protect her. The eagle became unhappy when it saw the young man. It flapped its massive wings, looking fierce.
Then Luo Jin’an’s demeanor changed. He emitted a powerful, terrifying aura.
The eagle seemed to have sensed something, looking at Luo Jin’an and trying to figure the young man out. A hint of fear appeared on the eagle’s face as it guessed the young man was no ordinary human. It felt his terrifying aura from the depths of its soul.
Su Binglan stuck her head out from behind her husband and looked at the eagle. “I need the Purple Spirit Ginseng to cure someone. We don’t want to hurt you. Can we have the herb?”
She suspected the eagle could understand her, so she tried discussing things with it. The eagle nodded at Su Binglan like an obedient child.
Su Binglan thought it was pretty cute, so she reached out and stroked its head. The eagle behaved coquettishly toward the young lady, using its head to nudge her hand.
Su Binglan’s heart softened, and she thought of Falling Snow. They seemed to be animals with extraordinary intelligence.
She said, “Look, I’ll take the Purple Spirit Ginseng, then you won’t have to worry about it anymore. Why don’t you come with me? I’ll make you some delicious food.’
The eagle flapped its wings, showing it was delighted.
Su Binglan smiled faintly and approached the cliff to dig out the herb. However, the roots had yet to mature. If she used it like that, its medicinal effects would be insufficient.
Fortunately, Su Binglan had her pocket dimension to use the herb’s small roots to brew medicine for Luo Jin’an. That way, she could cure most of the cold poison, allowing Luo Jin’an to use force again. Still, it would not cure him fully.
Then Su Binglan would use the Purple Spirit Ginsengs roots to refine the antidote for Luo Jin’an after they had fully grown in her pocket dimension. Luo Jin’an would be cured fully after drinking the refined antidote.
At that moment, Su Binglan was incomparably excited as she held the herb.
She hugged her husband, saying, “You’ll be okay with this, Jin’an.”
Luo Jin’an choked up as he hugged his wife and stroked her hair. “Yeah, it’s been hard on you, huh?”
“It wasn’t that hard. I’m thrilled that you’ll be fine soon. Let’s return to Su Teng Village quickly.”
Su Binglan explained to Luo Jin’an that she could only cure half of the cold poison and could eliminate its remnants after the Purple Spirit Ginseng fully developed.
Even so, Luo Jin’an was delighted. Most importantly, he could fight now. He did not stop Su Binglan from entering the forest just now because he knew he could help Lan Ruozhu when the cold poison was no longer in his body.
Then Luo Jin’an would not let anyone attack the deceased royal’s mansion. He also wanted to protect that land’s purity for his wife.
After leaving the forest, Su Binglan and Luo Jin’an returned to the village at the border. Meanwhile, Wei Cheng and the others had already settled down the people they had brought from Apricot Mountain Village.
Wei Cheng had also bandaged everyone’s wounds, and there were no significant problems either. Luo Jin’an and Su Binglan heaved a sigh of relief now that they knew everyone was okay.
Su Binglan did not have time to rest and hurriedly brewed the medicine for her husband. Immediately after, she blew on it and waited until the temperature was just right for Luo Jin’an to drink.
Luo Jin’an did not hesitate and drank the medicine. Afterward, he felt a warm current surge through his body, making him feel relaxed and comfortable. The hidden coldness in his body disappeared.
Su Binglan looked at him nervously and knew the Purple Spirit Herb’s medicinal properties and spiritual energy were dispelling the cold poison and nourishing Luo Jin’an’s body.
The medicine helped him recover his strength at a breakneck speed..
