The moment Chunhua fell to the ground, the little thing on my wrist suddenly shrank.

Song Lianhe felt pain and raised his wrist.

Chunhua lowered her head, her eyes full of oppression, and a low, hoarse gurgling sound came from her throat as if in a warning.

She had never seen Chunhua like this before. It looked very much like its owner.

Chunhua tapped the table rhythmically with her sharp beak a few times, and Xiaolan actually climbed down from her wrist and slowly crawled to the position where Chunhua had just touched the table with her beak. It curled up into a ball and didn't move.

Song Lianhe stared at the scene with eyes wide open, in disbelief.

Is Chunhua so powerful?

You are good at hiding your shortcomings!

Chunhua seemed quite satisfied with Xiaolan's submission. She picked up Xiaolan in her mouth, flapped her wings and flew away.

"Hey! Where are you taking it?"

Song Lianhe was caught off guard and it was too late for him to chase after her.

Xiaolan is extremely poisonous. What should I do if he opens his mouth and bites me when I’m forced into a corner?

But then she thought again, Chunhua is also an alien, and it must have its own reasons for taking Xiaolan away.

She should just go to bed. As for these two, they should just wish themselves the best.

The next day, just as the sky was getting light, Shopkeeper Meng knocked on Song Lianhe's door in a hurry.

"Doctor Song...something happened! Doctor Song!"

"what happened?"

Song Lianhe put on her clothes and hurriedly opened the door.

"Someone is coming from the City Lord's Mansion!"

-

When Song Lianhe arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, it was already dawn.

Ajun stood beside her with a medicine box on his back.

Originally, Yinhuan wanted to accompany her, but she couldn't leave E Jintang alone in the clinic. He was a simple-minded person and it would be easy for him to make mistakes if there was no one around him.

So, Ajun volunteered to accompany her to the City Lord's Mansion.

"Sister, why did the city lord come to us?"

Ajun asked in a low voice while the two were waiting outside the door.

Song Lianhe's heart was also beating fast.

What if they weren't exposed?

Just then, the city lord's attendant brought the two people in.

It was not until he met the city lord that Song Lianhe finally understood the reason.

"The city lord has been poisoned."

This was the conclusion she came to after taking the patient's pulse and observing him.

As for how and what kind of poison he got, Song Lianhe knew everything after seeing the two tiny holes at the base of his thumb.

She was still wondering, how could Chunhua suddenly appear and take Xiaolan away?

It turned out to be waiting here!

Duan Shanmian opened his eyes. Even though his whole body was sometimes burning with flames and sometimes freezing cold, his eyes were still clear and steady.

Song Lianhe had never expected that the mayor of Sishui City was so young and handsome.

It’s just that his gaze was too cold. Different from ordinary coldness, it lacked the breath of a living person.

Her eyes swept over his hands that were clutching the quilt, and she said slowly, "I'm sure the city lord has already asked all the doctors in the city, and they must be struggling to find a way to detoxify."

Duan Shanmian opened his mouth slightly, his voice weak and hoarse, "Can you detoxify?"

Song Lianhe smiled and said, "I'll try my best."

She spoke in a low-key manner, but her eyes were firm and assertive.

"City Lord, Doctor Song has been here for the past two days..."

The counselor leaned over and whispered, roughly introducing Song Lianhe.

Hearing that she was providing free medical consultation and even free medicine, Duan Shanmian looked at her again and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Doctor Song."

"Easy to say."

Song Lianhe took out the silver needle, and the strategist was about to step forward to test for poison, but was stopped by Duan Shanmian.

“If one can lend a helping hand to the people, then he must be kind and compassionate.”

"City Lord..."

"Go back."

Although the counselor disagreed, he knew his temper well and had to step aside.

Song Lianhe, however, had a new respect for Duan Shanmian. She looked at him and couldn't help but smile: "The city lord is really trusting. What if I was deliberately putting on a show? First I would gain a good reputation, then order someone to secretly poison the city lord, and then I would go to the mansion to treat him..."

Song Lianhe suddenly fell silent.

Pooh!

What a mouth she has!

The counselor's eyes changed as he stared at her, and Ajun didn't even dare to breathe. He was ready to cover his sister's escape at the critical moment.

"Ha ha……"

Duan Shanmian laughed softly, his voice was weak, but one could still hear some joy in it.

"Dr. Song is really interesting."

"Haha...haha..." Song Lianhe laughed awkwardly twice, "It was just a joke to lighten the atmosphere."

Seeing her nervousness, Duan Shanmian said softly, "Even if Doctor Song really has ulterior motives, I have nothing to fear."

Song Lianhe was startled: "Why?"

He slowly turned his head, staring at a corner above with a calm gaze, "If I die, the people in this city will not suffer with me."

"Uh, City Lord, what do you mean?"

"cough!"

The counselor beside him coughed lightly to signal.

"Oh, Zhu Liao, don't worry. Since I have promised the prince, I will keep my promise. As long as I am alive, I will defend this Sishui City for him."

Song Lianhe's heart skipped a beat.

Looking at Duan Shanmian again, no wonder he doesn't seem to have any life in him. He must be in great pain, caught between gratitude and duty.

Next, only Song Lianhe and Duan Shanmian were left in the room.

During the treatment, neither of them spoke.

It wasn't until Song Lianhe accidentally caught a glimpse of Xiaolan who came out from nowhere that her eyes widened in shock.

Xiao Lan shook his head, as if he yawned again, turned his head, opened his mouth lazily, and bit Duan Shanmian's hand...

Song Lianhe reacted immediately, and covered Xiaolan with a needle.

Only after Xiao Lan relaxed did she take back the needle.

As the King of Gu, Xiao Lan is naturally spiritual and would not be brought here by Chunhua for no reason.

After taking this bite, Xiao Lan seemed to have exhausted all her strength. Song Lianhe quickly reached out her hand, and Xiao Lan staggered up to her wrist and hid inside her bracelet, staying there peacefully and never moving again.

Duan Shanmian's complexion slowly began to turn rosy, and the poison had been resolved.

Song Lianhe breathed a sigh of relief and raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

To be honest, she really broke out in a cold sweat when Xiao Lan bit him just now.

When she raised her eyes, she found Duan Shanmian staring at her without blinking.

Those eyes were like an ancient well, calm and still, yet full of eternal insight; any falsehood or pretense would be exposed here.

Song Lianhe felt a little guilty. She calmed herself down and was about to speak when Duan Shanmian suddenly whispered, "If you save me this time, you will have no chance. Doctor Song, in the future, just do your duty as a good doctor and don't get involved in the rest."

Song Lianhe was startled and looked at him in a daze.

Duan Shanmian withdrew his gaze and closed his eyes.

"Zhu Liao, send Doctor Song off."

"Yes."

Zhu Liao came in from outside.

"Doctor Song, this way please."

Song Lianhe glanced at Duan Shanmian and followed Zhu Liao out.

Her expression was serious, and Ajun stepped forward nervously: "Sister, what's wrong?"

“He knows who we are.”

Ah Jun was shocked: "Then... aren't we in danger?"

She shook her head slowly: "He asked us to come here because he wanted to die."

"what?"

Ajun was a little confused now.
