Chapter 348 Isn't it
In the end, of course, Hongshu didn't help them serve soup. Even if she dared to serve them soup, they wouldn't dare to drink it. They had to do it themselves and have enough food and clothing.
Mei Chengan took a sip of the mushroom soup and was immediately amazed by how delicious it was.
One word to describe it is fresh, two words to describe it is extremely fresh, and three words to describe it is the ultimate invincible exploding spiral universe-destroying freshness!
Simple ingredients, combined with just the right seasoning, make up a bowl of delicious and exceptionally fresh dish that is simply amazing.
After drinking a bowl of soup, Mei Chengan felt that all his unhappiness was instantly eliminated, and he felt the beauty of the world again.
Delicious food heals the heart.
After lunch and resting in the shade of the trees for a while, the delegation was ready to set off again.
On the way back to the carriage, Mei Chengan was wondering whether he should go to Silili's carriage to try to find a soft pillow, when Fan Xian beside him spoke.
"I'm going to give Sean an IV later, do you want to come with me?"
Mei Cheng'an was stunned for a moment when he heard this.
"We're going now? Not waiting until tonight?"
Fan Xian shook his head.
"During the day, the light is better. First, it will be easier to give the needle. Second, Sean won't look as scary and gloomy as he does at night. This way, I will feel less stressed."
Mei Chengan nodded.
"Okay, then let the convoy wait for a while until you finish your work before setting off."
Fan Xian waved his hand.
"No, no, I may have to chat with Sean for a few minutes after the injection. There's no need to waste time. It won't affect our journey."
"No impact? The car was shaking violently when walking on the road."
"It won't affect me. Don't worry. Who am I? With my acupuncture skills, even an earthquake won't stop me from piercing his blood vessels!"
Mei Chengan rolled his eyes.
"How dare you brag!"
Fan Xian chuckled.
"The main reason is that his arm is too pale, and the blood vessels are clear and obvious enough to be easily found. As long as the needle is inserted steadily, accurately and quickly, there will be no problem."
Mei Cheng'an nodded and said no more.
"Okay, then you go. I won't go. It's such a small place, I'd just be a hindrance to you if I went."
It is more important to find a soft pillow. After all, it determines whether he can feel physically and mentally comfortable during the rest of the journey.
Fan Xian said "Eh~".
"What's the problem? The space inside is not as small as you think. Let's go together. I feel more at ease with you around."
"..."
Mei Cheng'an was speechless, but after thinking about it he agreed. It was okay to go, it wouldn't take much time and could also be used as an excuse.
"Do you have anything else to prepare?"
"I have all the tools and strips of cloth with me, and the medicine has been injected."
"Let's go."
……
The carriage had a slightly ferocious appearance and was wobbling.
Sean's arms were hung up again, and Fan Xian was squatting in front of him, injecting him with poison.
Mei Cheng'an was sitting on a small stool placed at the door to the left behind Fan Xian. He was frowning, crossing his arms, covering his nostrils with his fingers, and tilting his head to look at the two of them.
After the second intravenous injection, Sean's condition was much better than last night. He did not look as frightened as he did last night. Except for the occasional frown, his expression was unusually calm and peaceful.
Even in the mood to joke.
"Do you smell that bad when you look at that? I think it's okay."
Mei Chengan rolled his eyes.
"That's something you should get used to, Senior Xiao."
Sean frowned, then suddenly smiled.
"Hehe, maybe."
After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Fan Xian.
"Why is the acupuncture time earlier today? And why has it taken so long to finish this time? It was very quick last night."
Fan Xian flicked the needle lightly and glanced at Sean.
"We came early because the light is better during the day. As for why the acupuncture time has become longer... This is what happened, Senior Xiao.
Last night was my first time performing acupuncture, and I was unsure about many aspects, so I prepared less medicine to see how the situation goes.
Now that I see that you have adapted and recovered so quickly, I have adjusted the formula and increased the dosage, so it will take longer."
"..."
Xiao En's mouth twitched, and he looked at him coldly. Is this a "little" increase? This is clearly a several times increase! Li Taliang...
I should have known not to pretend nothing happened, a plant.
Seeing him staring at him and cursing at him with dirty eyes, Fan Xian smiled.
"Don't look at me like that, Senior Xiao. You are not an ordinary person. I have to be more cautious when dealing with you. Please forgive me."
Upon hearing this, Sean closed his eyes and adjusted his emotions. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes had returned to calm and he looked to the other side.
"Look at how pampered you are. I'm afraid you've never suffered any hardship, have you?"
Mei Cheng'an turned his head towards the window, let go of his hands, took a deep breath to change the air, then covered his nose again and smiled.
"Senior, you are wrong. I was always sick when I was young and drank a lot of bitter medicines. I suffered a lot."
"..."
Sean was speechless. Do we both mean the same thing when we talk about suffering?
Fan Xian burst out laughing, and the hand holding the needle tail trembled involuntarily, accidentally causing Sean a little pain.
Sean frowned and looked at him with sharp eyes. Fan Xian quickly stopped laughing, steadied himself and waved his hand.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it was an accident, a complete accident!"
After saying sorry, he turned around and glared at his fellow villager.
"I'm doing this needlework, can you please stop making me laugh?"
Mei Chengan shrugged.
"Saury."
Fan Xian looked away and saw that Sean was still looking at him, and said helplessly.
"Well, seniors, please continue. I promise not to laugh anymore."
Sean glanced at him and looked away.
"I was often sick when I was a child, why didn't you have any more children?"
Mei Chengan smiled.
"It's because I practiced martial arts and my body became stronger."
Sean nodded.
"You have been practicing martial arts since you were young...what is your current rank?"
Fan Xian was stunned for a moment when he heard this. "Senior... can't you tell what rank he is?"
Sean looked at Mei Chengan and shook his head.
"He has suppressed all his energy and has not made any move, so how can I tell?"
Fan Xian suddenly realized and looked back at his fellow villager.
Mei Chengan said with a smile.
“Just entered the ninth rank.”
Sean's pupils shrank when he heard this, and he looked at Mei Cheng'an with astonishment. After looking him up and down, he spoke.
"At what age did you start practicing martial arts?"
"Eight years old."
"How old are you now?"
"Seventeen."
"Hi~"
Sean's eyes were filled with shock.
"Nine years, ninth grade?"
Not to mention Sean, Fan Xian's jaw almost dropped in shock. Damn, even after I told him this bastard had a cheat, he still refused to admit it. It's not a cheat, it's a person?
Mei Cheng'an curled the corners of his mouth and nodded slightly.
"lucky."
Looking at him, Xiao En's eyes suddenly became a little dazed. How many years did it take him to reach the ninth level? Oh, I remember now.
Relying on the special skills given by that man, although his martial arts progress is not as good as that of the bald donkey, it is many times faster than that of ordinary people.
Even so, even though he had a solid foundation, it still took him eleven or twelve years to reach the ninth level, a speed rarely seen in the world.
And this young man suddenly only took nine years, nine years!
Although he had just entered the ninth rank, he had no foundation before this. How could he not be shocked?
Could it be that the martial arts in this person's hands also came from that person, and is very suitable for him to practice, just like... that bald donkey?
Although he really wanted to know, unfortunately he couldn't ask. It was a big taboo to spy on other people's cultivation methods, and even if he asked, others would not tell him.
With his eyes flashing, Sean withdrew his thoughts and sighed lightly. He looked deeply at the young man and a few words popped out of his mouth.
"You are good!"
Mei Chengan smiled and nodded slightly.
"Thank you for your praise, senior."
Sean's eyes flashed and he suddenly said another sentence.
"You're lucky."
This sentence was a bit puzzling, and Fan Xian seemed to be thinking about it.
Mei Chengan's reaction was indifferent.
"Oh?"
"You have found a technique that suits you."
After saying that, Sean stared into his eyes closely, not missing any changes in his expression. Although he couldn't ask, he could try!
He doesn't need to tell everything, just a little bit of information, even an expression or a look is enough for him to make a judgment.
Unfortunately, Mei Cheng'an didn't buy it. His eyes remained clear and calm without any change. He smiled and shrugged, refusing to say another word.
"Oh, maybe."
Sean sighed in his heart, realizing that he was overthinking it.
His words had no effect on Mei Cheng'an, but they caused ripples in Fan Xian's heart.
Hiss~ Is there a question of whether a martial art is suitable or not?
Could it be that... the domineering martial arts method is not suitable for me? That's why my martial arts progress lags behind my fellow villager by so much?
Well... it must be! Either the domineering technique is not suitable for me or the fellow villager has a cheat. There are only two reasons, no doubt about it!
As expected, it is this world that is wrong, and the rain has nothing to do with me.
Feeling comfortable now.
While Fan Xian was PUAing the entire world, the conversation between Sean and Mei Chengan was still going on.
"When did you enter the Overwatch Council?"
"At the beginning of the year."
“At the beginning of the year…”
Sean muttered silently, thoughtfully.
"Admission means Tisi?"
"Yes."
Sean's eyes flickered.
"The position of the Chief Secretary is not an ordinary position. It is on the same level as the heads of the other eight departments of the Supervisory Council, and is only below Chen Pingping."
Mei Chengan smiled.
"Senior knows the Overwatch Council very well."
Sean paused, his eyes suddenly becoming somewhat cold.
“It can be said that I know it like the back of my hand!”
After saying this, his tone suddenly became warmer and lighter.
"After all, we have been fighting each other for so many years. How can we fight each other without knowing each other? So..."
He turned his head and looked at Fan Xian.
"How long has this been going on? Isn't it over yet?"
Upon hearing this, Fan Xian observed the medicine groove at the end of the long needle.
"It's still a little short, it will be done soon, please be patient, senior."
Sean nodded and looked at Mei Chengan again.
"How did you get into the Overwatch Council?"
Mei Cheng'an's words are concise and to the point.
"With...skills."
This was not an exaggeration. Not long after Emperor Qing knew of his skills, Chen Pingping had Shadow deliver the badge of the Chief of Staff.
Sean thought about it and nodded. It was reasonable for a ninth-rank official to be a supervisor.
Sean suddenly laughed, not knowing what he was thinking of.
"After asking you so many questions, don't you think I'm trying to gather information and plan some conspiracy based on it?"
Mei Chengan smiled.
"Isn't that right, Senior?"
Sean didn't feel embarrassed, and there was a thoughtful look in his smiling eyes.
"So you still have questions to answer?"
