379. This Is the Real (II)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Seeing that Liu Suifeng was a little far away, Long Xiaoyuan secretly asked Ouyang Chuan beside him. “You can actually stand his unpleasant personality?”
Ouyang Chuan sneered at Long Xiaoyuan. “I think your personality is very unpleasant as well. Don’t I bear with you? Compared to you, my Suifeng is much better.”
Long Xiaoyuan beca teary right away. “My Qingzhou is not here, and the two of you gang up to bully . When Qingzhou is here, I’ll tell him to take revenge!”
Ouyang Chuan glared at Long Xiaoyuan in frustration. “Do you think you’re a child who goes to his parents and complains? It’s a pity that Shi Qingzhou is not your parent. Don’t you feel ashad?”
“You are afraid of my Qingzhou.” Long Xiaoyuan looked very distressed, but his eyes were flashing with complacence. “I don’t have a choice, do I?”
Ouyang Chuan was lost for words. “My Qingzhou is arriving. Ouyang Chuan, are you ready? Maybe I could tell him that you co to my room at night because you want to talk to and seduce... Hey, where are you going?”
Ouyang Chuan turned and left. Long Xiaoyuan yelled at him from behind, but Ouyang Chuan ignored him.
After Ouyang Chuan stomped away in anger, Long Xiaoyuan went to Liu Suifeng’s room leisurely.
After closing the door, Liu Suifeng looked at Long Xiaoyuan helplessly.
“Can you not anger Ouyang Chuan away every ti you want to talk to alone?”
Long Xiaoyuan shrugged innocently. “I don’t have other ways, do I?”
“Tell what you want to say.”
Long Xiaoyuan nodded. “I don’t know why. I have a bad feeling lately. I can’t say what it is clearly, so I want you to make more preparations, just in case.”
Liu Suifeng paused. “What do you an?”
Long Xiaoyuan looked at him deeply. “They are not the only ones who can use poison. If anything happens, we can beat them at their own ga.”
Liu Suifeng paused again and said slowly, “Do you an the Eastern Darkness or Northern Barbarians?”
“Of course Northern Barbarians. The Eastern Darkness belongs to Fang Shuoyang and I don’t intend to do anything to it. Besides, our only enemy is Northern Barbarians.”
Liu Suifeng was silent for a mont before he nodded. “I understand. What kind of poison do you need?”
A cold look flashed across Long Xiaoyuan’s eyes. “We don’t need prisoners.”
Liu Suifeng took a deep breath, completely getting what he ant. “Okay. I will prepare for that.”
Long Xiaoyuan nodded and looked at Liu Suifeng. He said slowly, “I don’t want to kill, but if they want to kill my people and my soldiers, then I will kill them first. If they want to play dirty tricks, then I will teach them a lesson with their blood that they are not the only ones who know dirty tricks. I can accept the tragic defeat of the war, for losers are always in the wrong. However, I will never accept that soone wants to kill us with dirty ans. If they want to defeat us by hook or by crook, then I would take nastier ans against them. Let’s see who is more ruthless in the end. Liu Suifeng, this is . Do you understand?”
Long Xiaoyuan’s words shocked Liu Suifeng.
After a long ti, Liu Suifeng didn’t say anything.
Another mont later, Liu Suifeng slowly said, “I understand.”
Long Xiaoyuan smiled. “Suifeng, are you afraid of ?”
Liu Suifeng shook his head. “No. I finally know the difference between an emperor and a commoner.”
Long Xiaoyuan smiled. “Do you?”
“Yes. I thought... only Shi Qingzhou would take such ruthless ans. I was just surprised to hear this from you.”
Long Xiaoyuan smiled faintly. “Qingzhou grew up in a family of distinctive generals. Although he is ruthless, he doesn’t know less than any of the royal family. What’s more, Qingzhou is more flexible and he can always think out of the box. He has a clear idea of what he should hate or love. Therefore, you can’t accept it when he resorts to so bloody ans. Actually, he has his bottom line. When he can control himself, he knows his bottom line. Even if he is out of control, he knows his bottom line. We were too worried in the past.”
Liu Suifeng took a deep breath. “You’re right. We thought too much. There are things that can’t be solved through rcy. If you are rciful, and if you can’t bring yourself to kill one person or a group of people, you will harm more people.”
“That’s right,” Long Xiaoyuan said softly, “Especially in war. Or a war brought about by conspiracy. People die in wars. If soone has to die, I naturally hope that our enemy dies instead of our own people.”
“Okay.” Liu Suifeng smiled bitterly. “I know, let’s not talk about this. I work for you anyway. Whatever you want to do, just give the order.”
“You are a miracle-working doctor, and I don’t dare to say that you work for ,” Long Xiaoyuan teased, “Besides, I keep what you’ve done in mind. Don’t worry. I’ll give you whatever you ask for, no matter if it’s power or wealth, and beauty or farmland.”
Long Xiaoyuan acted like a generous wealthy man, and Liu Suifeng rolled his eyes. “Enough. Stop talking nonsense. I have to work on the herbs. Stand there and don’t move. When I need your blood, you prick your finger with the silver needle and drip your blood.”
Long Xiaoyuan asked, “Do you an I have to keep pricking my finger?”
Liu Suifeng looked at him helplessly. “Just have one prick. Make sure your wound doesn’t close quickly.”
“What if it closes quickly?” Long Xiaoyuan imdiately asked.
Liu Suifeng smirked. “Then you should bla on your bad luck.”
Long Xiaoyuan was lost for words. What kind of friend was this?
Or was he actually taking revenge? Definitely!
Liu Suifeng started to get down to the business. He worked on the herbs and sorted them out in batches.
Long Xiaoyuan involuntarily got nervous by his serious expression.
Liu Suifeng handed him the silver needle and pointed at a batch of herbs. “Drip your blood!”
Long Xiaoyuan mustered up his courage and pricked his finger.
Ouch! It hurt!
Long Xiaoyuan thought that he could regard this as a blood donation this year.
After he dripped a drop of blood, Liu Suifeng looked at it and said, “Not enough. One more drop.”
His mouth twitching, Long Xiaoyuan dripped another drop of blood.
After that, Liu Suifeng imdiately took the batch of herbs away and worked on it.
Soon, another batch of herbs was handed over. “Drip your blood.”
Long Xiaoyuan couldn’t help saying, “Why don’t you let cut my wrist and get more blood out, which can save from squeezing it out all the ti.”
“No.” Liu Suifeng imdiately shook his head. “If we store your blood in the bowl, it will affect the efficacy.”
Was Liu Suifeng really not teasing him? Was he serious?
Long Xiaoyuan stared at Liu Suifeng and said helplessly, “Okay, I got it.”
There were more than thirty batches of herbs, and Long Xiaoyuan dripped two to three drops of blood to each of them.
After he was through, Long Xiaoyuan felt like fainting.
The herbs didn’t sll good, and he kept bleeding! When Liu Suifeng said “Enough”, Long Xiaoyuan imdiately opened the door and left.
He felt that if he stayed any longer, he might pass out!
He imdiately returned to his room.
He poured two cups of tea and drained both, feeling a little better.
After that, he collapsed on the bed.
He felt exhausted after such a long day. He went out, rode on a horse, climbed mountain, and even dripped blood after he ca back.
After Long Xiaoyuan fell asleep, Ouyang Chuan went to Liu Suifeng.
At that ti, Liu Suifeng was reaching the final stage of his work.
“Ouyang, you’ve co.”
Ouyang Chuan pursed his lips. “He’s gone?”
“Yes, after he’s through, he left.”
“What did he say after he tricked away?” Ouyang Chuan asked directly.
Liu Suifeng did not think that Long Xiaoyuan’s clumsy thod could fool Ouyang Chuan, who pretended to be angry. Actually, it was not so easy to piss him off!
“Well, nothing important. We’ll talk about it tonight if you want to know.”
Seeing that Liu Suifeng was not going to conceal it from him, Ouyang Chuan was happy, nodding. “Okay. Is there anything I can help here?”
“Yes, help move this...”
The two of them worked together to complete the rest of the work, and Liu Suifeng finally let out a sigh of relief.
“Now we need to do so experints. I’ll bring two prisoners from the death row for the experints later. I also need to experint on so animals.”
“Well, you decide.” Ouyang Chuan had no objection.
Liu Suifeng smiled and stretched lazily. “We haven’t rested for a whole day. Ouyang, let’s go take a rest.”
Ouyang Chuan nodded. “Okay.”
“But before that, I have to make the prisoner take the poison. Go with .”
Ouyang Chuan nodded without any objections. “All right.”
The two of them went together.
Liu Suifeng took all the important things with him. For those he couldn’t take away, he hid them well and locked the room.
He couldn’t afford to lose all these important things!
Ouyang Chuan waited for him to finish his work and left with him.
At this mont, Long Xiaoyuan was mumbling in his sleep... No one knew what dream he was having, but his mouth moved as if he was eating sothing.
He slept like a child...
Fortunately, no one saw him...
