Many children, many blessings; a stunningly beautiful wife is given to you right from the start.

Shangguan Yan stood inside Huichun Hall, looking at the bustling scene before her, feeling somewhat dazed.

The doctors who were complete strangers and the medicine practitioners who rushed to the scene all had genuine concern on their faces.

They surrounded the sisters who were poisoned and unconscious, diagnosing them, administering acupuncture, and prying open their mouths to force-feed them medicine, keeping them extremely busy.

A long-awaited warmth slowly flowed through her heart, which had been frozen for three years.

hope.

This was the first time she had truly felt the weight of those two words since she and her sisters had hidden away in the deep mountains.

When Wu Zhong was in power, the entire Tiebi Pass was shrouded in gloom.

Pedestrians hurried along the street, their faces showing numbness and fear, afraid that they might be dragged into the alley by those lawless thugs at any moment.

Now, although the area inside the pass is still not considered wealthy, people's faces have become more vibrant.

They dared to speak up, they dared to look up.

The people in this clinic even dared to lend a helping hand to these "wanted criminals".

All of this started after that man named Lin Mo arrived.

Iron Wall Pass seems to be getting better.

"Shopkeeper, this young lady's pulse has stabilized!"

"This one too, the fever has gone down!"

Several of the sisters, whose poisoning was less severe, gradually regained consciousness after being given a vomit-inducing soup. Although they were weak, their lives were saved.

The atmosphere inside Huichuntang immediately relaxed, and everyone smiled.

Shangguan Yan's anxiety was finally relieved.

She walked quickly to the old shopkeeper, whose hair and beard were all white, her eyes reddening and her voice trembling.

"Thank you, Uncle Sun..."

She could only utter those few words before she could say nothing more; a thousand words were stuck in her throat.

The old shopkeeper patted the back of her hand, about to say something comforting.

However, this joy did not last long.

The spark of hope had just been ignited when it was quickly extinguished by a bucket of ice water.

"Shopkeeper! This won't do!"

The oldest doctor ran over, covered in sweat, his face ashen.

"Several girls were extremely poisonous! They mistakenly ate more than one kind of wild fruit! They ate 'Sun-Blooming Fruit' and 'Three Smiles Fruit' mixed together!"

"Two toxins were intertwined in my body. My detoxifying soup not only had no effect, but instead... it actually triggered a strange poison!"

The moment these words were spoken, the warm and cozy atmosphere instantly froze.

The color drained completely from Shangguan Yan's face in an instant.

She rushed frantically to a hospital bed, where she saw her sister's lips had turned completely blackish-purple, and her body was beginning to convulse violently and uncontrollably.

"How could this happen?"

"puff!"

The woman on the bed suddenly coughed up a mouthful of foul-smelling black blood, then her neck lolled to the side and she became completely still.

The once bustling Huichuntang has instantly become a dead zone.

One, two, three...

Other seriously ill sisters also developed the same symptoms one after another, and one by one they fainted before her eyes.

The old shopkeeper walked up to Shangguan Yan, his face full of shame.

His lips moved for a long time before finally turning into a heavy sigh.

"Miss...forgive my incompetence. The combination of these two poisonous fruits has become a rare poison that even a god couldn't cure...Prepare for your funeral..."

boom!

Upon hearing the old shopkeeper's words, Shangguan Yan felt dizzy and almost collapsed to the ground.

"Sister Yan!"

Cui'er cried and held her tightly from behind.

Shangguan Yan showed no reaction, only staring blankly at her sisters on the bed, whose bodies were growing colder.

It was her fault.

She was too arrogant, thinking she could lead everyone to survive in the mountains.

It was because she failed to take good care of everyone that they were so hungry that they would eat anything.

She's the one who ruined them...

In an instant, endless despair and self-blame, like a cold tide, overwhelmed Shangguan Yan.

The apprentices and doctors in the room fell silent, and only suppressed sobs filled the air.

However, at that moment...

"Bang!"

The clinic door was pushed open, and a figure rushed in like a gust of wind.

Shangguan Yan turned her head numbly.

"Lin...Lin Mo?"

She looked at the man she had met not long ago, a man who had made her extremely wary, her eyes filled with astonishment.

Why is he here?

However, Lin Mo didn't even glance at her. His gaze was like lightning, instantly locking onto the woman in the room who was the most seriously ill. He rushed to her bedside in three steps.

[Glassy Eyes] Activated!

In an instant, the world before Lin Mo's eyes completely changed.

The complex pathways and composition of the toxins within the poisoned woman's body became crystal clear to Lin Mo.

[Toxins: Sunflower Fruit (fire toxin), Three-Laughing Fruit (cold toxin), have undergone unknown mutations.]

[Status: Toxin conflict, organ failure... vital signs are declining.]

Solution: Take the Qingling Decoction. Required herbs: Dragon's Blood Vine, Snow Lotus Seed, Rejuvenating Grass, Nine-Leaf Ganoderma...

Goodness...

Lin Mo was startled.

How hungry are these girls? How can they eat anything?

He quickly found the detailed recipe for [Qingling Soup] in the Hundred Herbs Garden catalog, then suddenly turned around and yelled at Manager Sun, who was still in a daze.

"Old man, stop standing there! Quick, do you have any of these medicinal herbs: Dragon Blood Vine, Snow Lotus Seed, Rejuvenating Grass, and Jade Heart Coral?"

Lin Mo rattled off the names of seven or eight medicinal herbs in one breath, each one weighing heavily on the doctors' hearts.

They all looked at Lin Mo as if he were crazy.

After hearing this, Manager Sun's wrinkled old face looked even more miserable than a bitter gourd.

His legs went weak, and he almost knelt down before Lin Mo.

"Lord Lin... Lord Lin, you must be joking!"

"The medicinal herbs you mentioned are so rare that even if you searched the entire Great Xia Dynasty, you would have a hard time gathering them, let alone our small Huichuntang!"

"These are all things that are only recorded in ancient books!"

This time, it was Lin Mo's turn to be stunned.

Holy crap?

Is it that rare?

He forgot that products from his system were guaranteed to be of the highest quality, completely different from ordinary products outside.

Seeing that the girls on the bed were breathing weaker and weaker, Lin Mo made a decisive decision.

No time to explain!

He grabbed Shangguan Yan's shoulder, who was still in a daze, his eyes more serious than ever before.

"They can't be saved here, but I can."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yan suddenly raised her head.

A faint light rekindled in those lifeless eyes.

"But not here."

"You have to come back to Blackwind City with me. I have these herbs in my Hundred Herbs Garden!"

Lin Mo stared into her eyes and said, word by word.

Go to Blackwind City?

Shangguan Yan glanced at Lin Mo, then at her sister on the bed whose breaths were growing weaker and weaker. Her inner struggle, pride, and vigilance were crushed in the face of death.

The next second, she broke free from Lin Mo's hand and knelt down straight in front of him.

"Thump!"

The dull thud of a forehead hitting the bluestone slab sent a jolt through everyone in the clinic.

"Please save my sister's life!"

Shangguan Yan's voice was hoarse, but it carried a resolute determination to risk everything.

"I, Shangguan Yan, am willing to serve you...like a slave!"
