Bai Zhi got up with the book, walked in front of him, patted the book on the coffee table beside him, and asked in a cold voice, “So, you already knew there was no cure?”

Song Lang put down the teacup, glanced at the blue books on several shelves, frowned his eyebrows, and said: “It’s just that there is no cure for now, not that there is no cure for it. These are two different things.”

Bai Zhi was taken aback and asked urgently: “What do you mean by this? Do you know how to solve it?”

Song Lang shrugged his shoulders: “I don’t know yet, I’m just a little bit knowledgable than you, but with my own ability, I can’t develop an antidote yet, so–”

Therefore, he used today’s strategy.

Bai Zhi laughed dumbly: “So that’s the case, Song Lang, I didn’t see you wrong as expected.”

Song Lang frowned again, but he was not as angry as before, but he looked a little uncomfortable.

Bai Zhi actually wanted to ask, since he didn’t want to watch the innocent people die tragically, why did he plan to provoke a war between the two countries? Wouldn’t many innocent people will also die tragically?

But the current situation doesn’t seem to be suitable to ask this question. So in the end, she held back her words.

Bai Zhi sat down in the chair beside him and asked urgently: “Tell me, what’s your clue?”

Song Lang’s heart moved slightly, he seemed to enjoy the feeling of being paid attention to by her. He felt very comfortable, so he smiled and said, “I have read it in another ancient book. Gu worms are afraid of strong stimulation of cold and heat, they are like fish.”

Bai Zhi looked at him and wait for him to say the rest.

Song Lang picked up the teacup again and drank the cold water. The cold tea was poured from his throat and into the spleen and stomach, but it couldn’t cool his heart.

After selling his gourd for a while, seeing the annoyance appearing on Bai Zhi’s jade-like face surface, he slowly said: “There is a medicinal bath method. It looks feasible, but—”

“But what?” Bai Zhi asked.

Song Lang said: “But we have to ensure that the water is always at a constant temperature and will not be cold. They need to soak in it for at least one hour, and then take the cathartic medicine to expel the gu worm from the body.”

Bai Zhi looked at Song Lang incredulously: “It’s that simple?”

Song Lang looked up and stared at her: “It’s simple? Are you sure it’s simple? You have to keep soaking in the medicinal bath for an hour without letting the temperature change. You can’t reheat the water in between. Can you do it?”

Bai Zhi nodded: “Of course I can.”

Song Lang also came interested: “How?”

Bai Zhi smiled, revealing her row of white teeth and also the dimples on her cheeks. She looked sweet and intoxicating.

Song Lang was stunned for a while. When she smiled, her eyes were so beautiful, like the eyes that had been washed by rain, they were filled with thousands of stars, brightly shining.

Bai Zhi didn’t pay attention to his stupidity, he often showed this kind of stupidity, she just pretended not to see it.

She pointed her finger to the floor and asked Song Lang: “The temperature in this room has always been the same, neither too cold nor too hot. Do you know why?”

Song Lang shook his head foolishly: “Why?”

“Because the people responsible for burning the coal know when to add fire and lessen the fire. This is the experience they have accumulated over the years of doing this work. Their ability to control temperature is beyond your imagination.”

While in Dongfang Mansion, she once asked the old maidservant who burned the coal in the earthen dragon how do they keep the room warm at the same temperature?

The old maidservant couldn’t explain, she just did it based on her past experience and never thought of anything else.
