Seeing the old man’s confident expression, Kong Rui didn’t hesitate and only said, “Thankyou, ntor!”
A smile appeared on the old man’s face before he stared at Stone with sparkling eyes.
He picked up the tobacco pipe at his waist, took out a small handful of tobacco leaves, crushed them, and placed them in.
A hint of red fire ignited, and a faint wisp of green smoke slowly rose.
Kong Rui stood at the side as she watched the old man’s actions. She saw him tap the smoking pot with a red fla on Stone’s abdon, chest, and forehead.
The smoke pot was scorching hot. The skin would be dyed red even if it only ca close to it, let alone when burning the skin directly.
It had already burned off a few pieces of Stone’s ashen skin.
Stone’s flesh fell, but Stone didn’t seem to feel any pain and just lay there without any reaction.
The old man flipped his tobacco pouch, raised Stone’s neck, and pushed him to sit up.
After Stone sat up straight, the old man’s smoke pot tapped a few acupuncture points on his back again before knocking down heavily on his head.
The old man was quick, but his strength was enough to kill soone. Kong Rui couldn’t help but sweat for Stone.
Although Stone was already on the verge of death, wasn’t he afraid of killing him directly?
Before Kong Rui could react, the old man threw the smoke pot down. Stone’s eyes suddenly widened, and his mouth opened wide as he panted heavily.
The old man put away the tobacco pipe and took out a few silver needles from his waist to stab the acupuncture points he had just pressed before finally stopping.
“Alright! If you have any questions, ask him!” The old man said. Then, he picked up his tobacco pipe and took a few sips before walking towards a chair.
Seeing that the old man was still sitting on the chair with one leg propped up on the chair in a relaxed posture, Kong Rui pursed her lips and walked to Stone.
“Your na is Stone, right?” Kong Rui looked at Stone, who had just adjusted his breathing and was looking around in confusion.
Hearing soone call his na, Stone turned around and looked at Kong Rui blankly.
Kong Rui wasn’t in a hurry. She just waited for Stone to respond.
After a while, Stone finally seed to be able to see the person in front of him clearly.
“You are…” Stone’s voice was hoarse, like the sound of a poorly made instrunt.
Kong Rui ignored his question and only said, “Do you know where you are? Why are you here?”
When Stone heard this, he looked around again, then he turned to look at Kong Rui in confusion and shook his head as he said, “I don’t know! 1 was clearly on duty in the Li family’s ho. Why am I here?”
“On duty?” Kong Rui thought for a mont and continued to ask, “You don’t rember how you were sent here?”
“Do you know what day it is?”
Stone nodded slightly. “The fifth of August. My birthday will be in a few days!”
Kong Rui frowned slightly, and her expression changed.
5th of August?
That was two months ago!
She looked at the old man inquiringly, but he didn’t look at her at all. He was studying his tattered cloth bag.
Kong Rui pursed her lips and turned to look at Stone again. “You’re on duty in the Li family, so do you have any missions?”
When Stone heard this, he imdiately looked at Kong Rui warily. “Who are you? Why are you asking this?”
Kong Rui knew that Stone must have received so secret mission.
Kong Rui wasn’t in a hurry. She only continued, “You fainted while on duty in the Li family and were sent to the dical center.”
“We have to know what happened to you so that we can treat you!”
When Stone heard Kong Rui’s words, although he was a little suspicious, he felt conflicted when he saw that he really seed to be in the dical center.
“Why am 1 at the dical center? What happened to ?” As Stone spoke, he lowered his head to look at his body.
Only then did he notice the strange change in his body.
He tried his best to stretch his arms, but he realized that he couldn’t control his body at all.
He cried out in shock, “What’s going on? What’s wrong with ?”
