Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.
Inside Lin Tian's hospital room.
A middle-aged man of average build stood at the door with his head lowered, reporting to Bai Shishi.
He wasn't reporting on the current situation of the Bai Family, but rather on the police action tonight.
No matter what, Du Dahai is Bai Shishi's biggest enemy. There are numerous people observing his moves, so any major action by Du Dahai can be known to Bai Shishi immediately.
Bai Shishi had already learned from Lin Tian that Du Dahai would be targeted by the police soon. This was an extremely confidential piece of information, even Bai Shishi only knew a rough idea.
Upon hearing the specific details, besides Lin Tian, everyone was shocked.
Fortunately, both the Bai Family and the Xianglong Tea House had been keeping a low profile recently, or else they would have been in the police's net this time as well.
Bai Shishi knew that the Xianglong Tea House's previous business could no longer continue; it must be cleaned up!
Seven officials connected to Du Dahai, from high ranking to low, had fallen overnight.
This swift police action was on the front page of major websites and trending on platforms within just one hour.
Everyone marveled at the country's strength, feeling a sense of pride in their hearts.
The only flaw in the victory was that Du Dahai escaped. After an hour of searching, he still wasn't found. The police quickly issued a warrant with a hefty reward to attract public attention.
But Bai Shishi was already very satisfied because Du Dahai is now just a rat that everyone wants to beat. They've been at odds for several years, isn't it fitting now?
While gloating at Du Dahai's misfortune, Bai Shishi couldn't help but feel a bit of sorrow. It's the fox mourning the rabbit's death. If the Bai Family hadn't been struck this time, if it weren't for Lin Tian's help, she might have been that rat on the street now.
After listening, Bai Shishi no longer felt like staying. She stood up, greeted Lin Tian, and left.
Her focus now needs to be on the upcoming negotiations with the Wang Family. Although the Bai Family is currently suppressed, in a few days they will pay back tenfold, a hundredfold!
When Bai Shishi left, she took Wu Yong and Pang Yu with her, as they currently had no place to settle. Following Bai Shishi not only ensured their safety but also allowed them to help her.
Lin Tian was once again left alone in the ward. He quickly entered a cultivation state, adjusting his body to its best condition, then repairing his bones.
A night passed without words, until the next day at 12:30 PM, Lin Tian ended his cultivation. Besides the two young nurses, no one else had visited.
It seemed like everyone had forgotten about him. A few rumbling noises came from his stomach, causing Lin Tian to smile wryly.
It seemed that after last night's awkward atmosphere, everyone was avoiding him, even Yan Xinrou hadn't shown up.
Helplessly, he had to order takeout with his phone.
Just as he was enjoying his meal, Zhao Xuefeng, Liou Qingcheng, and Meng Nan arrived.
The four of them seemed exhausted, sweating profusely and panting heavily, yet their faces were filled with smiles.
Lin Tian put down his chopsticks and, looking at them, asked curiously, "Sisi, why are both of you here?"
Meng Nan looked at Lin Tian, a bit annoyed, and said in a muffled voice, "Isn't it because you wanted to boil that medicine? As soon as Sisi heard about it, she got interested, and I was dragged along to be a laborer."
Seeing their disheveled state, Lin Tian laughed and asked, "So how did the brewing go?"
Liou Qingcheng raised the bag in her hand, laughing, "The ointment you mentioned, the four of us worked on it all morning and just finished."
"All morning?"
Zhao Xuefeng wiped the sweat off his forehead and said, "Lin Tian, the prescription you gave me is really weird. It's just medicine brewing, but it's so laborious."
Lin Tian looked puzzled at him, "Why was it strenuous?"
"Following your method, the water wouldn't even boil, let alone brew the medicine. Isn't that strange?" Meng Nan complained, "In the end, we had to use a pressure cooker and pressed it all morning to barely succeed."
"That difficult?" Lin Tian's brow furrowed, it shouldn't be like this.
Sisi frowned, muttering, "Yes, your prescription is really strange. The water wouldn't boil, and there was no chemical reaction."
Lin Tian thought for a while and finally came to a conclusion.
This prescription wasn't originally meant for ordinary people; it was for cultivators during Foundation Establishment. Even though the ingredients were ordinary, missing Spiritual Qi meant missing a crucial part of the alchemy process. The low boiling point was just a minor issue; without Spiritual Qi, the medicinal effect couldn't be achieved, and that would be terrible.
Suddenly, Meng Nan said, "There's something even stranger."
"What?" Lin Tian grew tense.
"You'll find out in a minute." Meng Nan grinned mischievously.
Lin Tian turned his gaze to Liou Qingcheng; she simply said, "Just be careful in a moment."
Lin Tian grew anxious and urged, "Quick, let me see it."
Liou Qingcheng handed over the bag. Upon opening it, he saw another thermal container...
These days, what Lin Tian saw most often was this thing. If it hadn't been for so many thermal containers yesterday, he wouldn't have been so destitute at noon.
Lin Tian raised his head in confusion, his brows knitted together, "Is this medicine for consumption? Shouldn't it be for external use once brewed?"
"It's for external use, but... we could only use this to hold it." Zhao Xuefeng said helplessly.
"Why?"
"You'll understand when you open it,"
Lin Tian unscrewed the cap of the thermal container, only to hear Liou Qingcheng say, "Be careful."
A wave of heat rushed out, directly hitting Lin Tian's face. The scorching feeling made it seem like his whole face was burning, as if a volcano had erupted.
Lin Tian quickly moved his face away. The heat soon dissipated, followed by a wave of coolness, feeling very soothing.
Meng Nan laughed, "Hahaha, how does it feel, old mate? Refreshing, isn't it?"
Lin Tian didn't reply, but cautiously glanced into the thermal container. Inside, it was as hot as a volcano.
