Chapter 232.1: Beautiful Mountains and Rivers (1/2)

“Hoarfrost Poison?” muttered Bai Feiyun. It seemed that he hadn’t heard of it before.

“You haven’t heard of it before?”

Bai Feiyun lowered the medicinal book he was holding as he shook his head.

Did that mean he hadn’t heard of it, or that he had?

Tang Doudou was too anxious to wait and pressed, “Xiao Bai…”

“Calm down…” Bai Feiyun shot her a look telling her not to panic, then showed her the medicinal book he was holding. He patiently pointed at a certain column of letters. “Is it this poison?”

Tang Doudou looked over but found that she didn’t recognize a single word. “What’s written?”

“Hoarfrost Poison ah.”

“That coincidental?” Tang Doudou’s eyes widened. How could such a coincidence occur? For Hoarfrost Poison to appear in his medicinal book right after she started asking about it?

It was too unbelievable. She suspected Xiao Bai of messing with her.

“I wouldn’t lie to you. How about this? Since you can’t read this, you should just bring this book with you and have Baili Yu or Jun Xin look at it for you.” Bai Feiyun closed the medicinal book and handed it to her.

Tang Doudou was puzzled. Why he didn’t directly tell her and instead told her to take the medicinal book to Baili Yu?

However, from the looks of it, Xiao Bai didn’t know that Baili Yu was poisoned with the Hoarfrost Poison. That was fortunate. Her decision earlier had been a little careless.

“This book was the one Senior Cang was reading before he left. You believe now, right?”

So it was like that. Ever since Old Man Cang found out that her Disseminating Tassel Fragrance had been cured, he had closed himself in his secret room to peruse these medicinal texts. The fact that he read this book last made it clear that this was a very important book.

Since this medicinal book belonged to Cang Baicao and he also happened to know how to cure the Hoarfrost Poison, it was possible that this was the exact book that Cang Baicao learned about the method to cure Hoarfrost Poison from!

When Tang Doudou’s thoughts reached this point, she started feeling overjoyed. She hadn’t expected to gain such a good harvest.

“Xiao Bai, if I take this thing and Cang Baicao misses it when he comes back, would you end up in trouble?” To people like Cang Baicao, medicinal books mattered more than life.

“There are limits to the knowledge that can be gained from paper. Senior Cang only uses these medicinal books when he researches, so most of the time these books are just piled up and ignored. Moreover, it’s not like you’re planning to keep this book. You can just send someone to deliver it back once you’re done with it.”

“Then I’ll be taking it!” Tang Doudou immediately beamed after she heard what Bai Feiyun said. Then she asked, “Xiao Bai, you’re not planning to head back to Huai City?”

“I won’t be heading back for the time being. Senior Cang has a lot of books here that can’t be found in the outside world so I’m planning to take advantage of this time to study them.”

So he was working on advancing his expertise ah!

In reality, studying medicine suited his temperament way more than dealing with those annoying matters in the martial arts alliance.

When Tang Doudou’s thoughts reached this point, she stood up and said, “Then I’ll leave first. Xiao Bai, take care of yourself! Remember to think of me!”

Bai Feiyun smiled. “Have a safe journey.”

As Tang Doudou left Cang Residence with the book, she started mulling over the question of whether to have Baili Yu look at this book or to look directly for Jun Xin.

Neither idea seemed appealing. For some unknown reason, though she was clearly holding a book that talked about the Hoarfrost Poison, she felt inexplicably uneasy.
