Seeing Lu Xingzhou coming over, the two were not surprised. Shen Tang greeted casually. \"Come and eat a little?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou didn't be polite, soon arrived at the table, took a bun from the table and gnawed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang smiled. \"Why are you not polite?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wasn't polite when eating with you before.\" Lu Xingzhou gnawed on the bun and said casually. \"We hid outside for the past two days because we were afraid you would be targeted by the Huo family, but looking at it now, this problem seems to be no longer a problem, so what else is there to say...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We have a feud with Liu Qingcang, he would have instigated Huo Yu to deal with us anyway, it has nothing to do with your private affairs. You should have cooperated with us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you settle accounts with me again, I won't treat your legs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang was stunned, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes. \"Your medicine has been used up, can you still treat it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\" Lu Xingzhou finished the bun in two or three bites, wiped his mouth. \"The life-saving medicine has been used up, but the injury medicine Huo Yu brought for Old Steward Huo is still there, which is just right for you. It’s just that the effect is relatively average, and it may take some time to recover slowly... But it will definitely work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang suppressed her expectation and took a deep breath to keep calm. \"What about you? Huo Yu brought it for Old Steward Huo alone, he wouldn't bring a double portion, there must be only one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou was silent for a moment. \"I said, my situation is serious, this kind of medicine is of no use to me, but it is just right for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli had been holding a cup of soy milk and drinking leisurely, as if it had nothing to do with her. Hearing this, she finally glanced at Lu Xingzhou.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of no use, but still useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least reconnecting the severed tendons alone should be no problem, and find other ways for other aspects. Being able to get a little better counts as a little. If it were anyone else paralyzed for ten years, and there was a chance to get a little better, could they still care about others?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he still planned to give it to Shen Tang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou poured himself a cup of soy milk and drank it, sighing. \"Maybe you see me acting, you will think I am some kind of schemer. Actually, it’s not really. Look, I did very shameful things last night.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shameful?\" Shen Tang was somewhat distracted. \"Why do you think that is shameful... Honestly, I envy A-Nuo, she has the best father in the world.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou glanced at her and said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaked a lot of bottom lines in front of Shen Tang, and Shen Tang leaked quite a few in front of him. Although some joints haven't been clarified, Shen Tang is likely a princess, then her father... Obviously, it is indeed very difficult for her to get such fatherly love as A-Nuo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There is even a certain possibility that her legs were broken by her own father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking about it, it’s better not to pull this with her, and continue. \"What I want to say is that my strategy is just like that. I do more organizational management work and some plan planning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang came back to her senses, puzzled for a moment. \"What’s wrong with this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"For an organizational manager, how to allocate resources more reasonably is a basic quality... Like giving this medicine to me, it can't change the status quo that I still have to sit in a wheelchair, but giving it to you can completely cure it, completely solve a problem, and get a complete combat power. No matter how you consider it, it should be given to you.\" Lu Xingzhou winked at her. \"Unless you are for the sake of not letting me touch your legs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir is joking.\" Shen Tang’s face flushed again, and after a long time said. \"The premise of resource allocation is being on the same side, otherwise it’s just each other’s things.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou asked curiously. \"Don't we count as being on the same side now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not really.\" Shen Tang stared into his eyes. \"Because no matter how I analyze it, I feel that you won't continue to stay in Xiazhou, and continuing to stay is meaningless to you. All the arrangements before were to pick me out, not for yourself. The moment you let A-Nuo take action against the demon, you actually decided to leave Xiazhou.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou was stunned and silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang’s thinking has always been sharp, but her understanding of him is really surprising... They haven't known each other for long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing him silent, Shen Tang bit her lower lip, seemingly struggling for a long time, and finally made up her mind. \"But when you decided to leave, you didn't know your legs were still not cured... So the situation is different now. You also know that my and Qingli’s background is unusual, just a bit of trouble for the time being. If you are willing to stay and help me, after solving some things, helping you find medicine will be easy, and you don't need to plan alone anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang added. \"In addition, no matter where you came from before, it doesn't matter. What matters is that you are a lone traveler now, and you have lost the path of inheritance and improvement. Your situation is not even as good as Xu Bingkun’s. If you join my group, there is a way to solve this problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of this, as if afraid of hurting the man’s self-esteem, she carefully added a sentence. \"Just... for the child?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This sense of sight... Lu Xingzhou couldn't help laughing. \"Good.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So crisp and neat, it made Shen Tang, who thought Lu Xingzhou might refuse, stunned, and then overjoyed. \"Really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can this still lie to you? It’s not like you are a child and eat this set.\" Lu Xingzhou laughed. \"In addition, I’ll say it first, I may not be as useful as you think, don't have too high expectations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this the reason why you said you were not a schemer just now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm... I can see that you lack a staff officer, although you are very smart, you are not on this path. From the proposal of the sword talisman, it is hard to comment, choosing Bai Chi, even harder to comment...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this also the reason why you looked at me differently after the sword talisman proposal? Although... maybe there is a bit of empathy, I don't know how much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, Shen Tang herself didn't know how much empathy and how much factor of wanting to get Lu Xingzhou’s planning ability were in the look at Lu Xingzhou at the beginning, and today, whether it is mixed with something else in various mutual help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, being said to be somewhat distracted, after a long time said. \"What I want is not any military strategist’s calculation... When the Yama Hall changed from a few people to the force that shakes the Great Qian today, what I want now is this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, his Yama Hall bottom line was revealed. Lu Xingzhou was not surprised, and nodded calmly. \"The Yama Hall is not mainly my credit. With her... with the Yama King’s strength, it is easy for powerhouses to follow the wind. I am just icing on the cake to do the architecture. If you must have me try, it is okay. I will only help you as a friend, like Qingli, not your subordinate... When it reaches about the same time, I will still leave.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang sighed. \"In the end, it’s still that sentence, you don't enter the sect?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then you will be a guest elder of this sect from now on.\" Shen Tang didn't struggle, and handed over a jade talisman. \"This is my token, seeing it is like seeing the Sect Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli wanted to say something, but finally held back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is said that it is the same as me, but I don't have such things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the way, did he just omit the suffix of \"Miss Qingli\" and call her Qingli directly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou took the jade talisman and smiled brightly. \"Now we are on the same side, heart is at ease, can you treat the legs?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang’s face flushed again, and she lowered her head slightly. \"Please treat, Sir.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Treating legs is not just treating legs, it needs to be touched. Listening to his statement just now, it needs a long time, and it probably won't be finished once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This \"Please treat, Sir\" sounds, is there any difference from \"Please touch me, Sir\"?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou made a \"please\" gesture. \"Then please enter the house.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli stood up and pushed Shen Tang, who wanted to run away, into the house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang said urgently. \"Wrong, this is my room...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli looked inexplicable. \"You treat your legs, in your room, what’s wrong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I...\" Before Shen Tang could say anything, Dugu Qingli pulled out the bellyband that was pressed underneath and looked at it. \"What is this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou: \"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You haven't seen a bellyband? I have seen it, on TV.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang lay on the bed and gritted her teeth. \"One day I will let you use it. Now, can you, first, go out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli said seriously. \"I want to protect you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang was almost angry. \"Lu Xingzhou is here, what do you need to protect?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli was more serious. \"Just because he is here, I want to protect you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You don't understand, you are quite understanding!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou was expressionless. \"With outsiders, it interferes with treatment. Do you want to ensure treatment or something else, judge for yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli considered it, and felt that ensuring the integrity of Shen Tang’s legs would be more in line with her mission requirements than ensuring that integrity, so she turned and retreated, and closed the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou slid the wheelchair to the bedside, and the two looked at each other, and both couldn't help laughing at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang said. \"You like Qingli very much?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I like her very much.\" Lu Xingzhou paused, and added a ghost-like sentence. \"Not what you think.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What I think, you know again?\" Shen Tang curled her lips with a half-smile. \"How to treat?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>————\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>ps: Updated early, no 6 o’clock one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>\"Saying you don't understand, yet you actually understand quite a bit!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou remained expressionless: \"With outsiders present, it interferes with the treatment. Whether you want to ensure the treatment or something else, decide for yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dugu Qingli considered it for a moment, feeling that ensuring the integrity of Shen Tang's legs was more in line with her mission requirements than ensuring that other thing, so she turned and retreated, even closing the door behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Xingzhou wheeled his chair to the bedside, and he and Shen Tang on the bed looked at each other; neither could help but laugh at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang said: \"Qingli has cultivated alone for a long time, rarely has contact with people, and is unfamiliar with worldly affairs. Don't blame her.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When did I ever blame her? It should be like this!\" Lu Xingzhou laughed: \"It wouldn't be fun if it weren't like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Tang turned her head back, looking at the ceiling: \"You like Qingli very much?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I do like her very much.\" Lu Xingzhou paused, then added as if possessed: \"It's not what you're thinking.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What I'm thinking? How would you know?\" Shen Tang pouted with a half-smile: \"How are you going to treat it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>————\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>PS: Updated early, there won't be one at 6 o'clock.\u003C\u002Fp>",2045,"2026-06-18T01:46:09.112Z","2026-06-18T03:18:02.290Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","0a0f10b4eeeacadb93d1f4b7304985fc7a4170ae43443d7a22c35cb4bfd1d3b6","the-grain-of-mountains-and-rivers-chapter-30","the-grain-of-mountains-and-rivers-chapter-28",325,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fmountains-and-rivers-of-the-imperial-granary-cover.jpg"]
