Honestly, so much time had passed that when Liu Buli heard Lu Wuming say that, he couldn't recall what he had promised the silly dog.
But when he did remember, he didn't immediately accept Lu Wuming as expected. Instead, he glared at him sternly. Then, under Lu Wuming's expectant gaze, Liu Buli unhesitatingly slapped away the hand that was holding him.
Looking at Lu Wuming's face, Liu Buli said sternly, "You stay put. Whether it's a reward or anything else, we'll discuss it after you're fully recovered. I'm going to call Shen Muzhi now. Before he finishes examining you, don't even think about anything else."
After all, this was a matter of Lu Wuming's health, and Liu Buli never made concessions on such issues.
Lu Wuming understood this, of course.
So, despite his hundredfold reluctance, he could only obediently withdraw his hand. He watched wistfully as Liu Buli turned and left, returning not long after with Shen Muzhi to their room.
Lu Wuming didn't question why Shen Muzhi was there. In his mind, if he had fallen into a coma and his master didn't know what to do, he would most likely contact Shen Muzhi to come and check on him.
Therefore, Shen Muzhi's appearance was entirely within expectations. In fact, Lu Wuming would have found it strange if he hadn't shown up.
Since he understood his master's thoughts clearly, Lu Wuming was naturally very cooperative when Shen Muzhi examined him.
He obediently let the other party's spiritual energy flow through him. Seeing Shen Muzhi release his hand from his wrist, Lu Wuming proudly tilted his chin at Shen Muzhi and asked in a very confident tone, "I'm fine now, right?"
Liu Buli's worry hadn't completely subsided, but Shen Muzhi nodded calmly. He said, "If your current condition is still considered problematic, then there would probably be very few healthy people in the entire world. To describe your current state, it's like an ordinary cultivator who has just gone through tribulation and advanced a cultivation stage. From any perspective, your body is excellent, and there's nothing I need to treat."
As he spoke, he strategically took a step back.
He patted You Siqi's shoulder, signaling that it was time for them to leave the room together.
However, Liu Buli was still a bit worried. He couldn't help but ask again, "Do you really not need to do any further consolidation? After all, you were in a coma for so long. Don't you need to take any tonics?"
Shen Muzhi gave him a blank look.
He really wanted to tell Liu Buli that if Lu Wuming needed tonics, then You Siqi could practically eat tonics for every meal.
But considering that such words might hurt his wife's pride, Shen Muzhi quickly changed his approach. He looked at Lu Wuming, then at Liu Buli, and said, "If you really want to supplement him with something, then I suggest you two engage in dual cultivation. The aura within him is indeed not very stable. If you dual cultivate, it will definitely be beneficial for both you and him."
As he said this, he led You Siqi to the door.
As he closed the door, he added considerately, "By the way, we're not in a hurry at all. So, you two can take as long as you need. Siqi is visiting Snow Mountain for the first time and is very curious about the place. We can treat it as a trip. Take your time, and we'll go out to play. Just contact us when you're done; don't worry about us."
After saying that, Shen Muzhi decisively closed the door on them.
Looking at the closed door, You Siqi asked with some concern, "Muzhi, were you serious just now? Is the aura in Lu Wuming's body really unstable?"
"Of course not. His aura has always been like that. I've examined him a few times before, and his condition is no different from now," Shen Muzhi shrugged and replied. "But if I don't tell Liu Buli there's a problem, he won't be able to relax completely. Since he's willing to put in the effort, letting him do so isn't a bad thing, don't you think?"
You Siqi blinked.
Looking at Shen Muzhi's smiling face, filled with tenderness, he once again affirmed in his heart that this protagonist of theirs was truly a black-hearted mochi.
The soundproofing in the inn wasn't very good, which was why Liu Buli in the room could hear the conversation the two were having at the door very clearly.
His expression became extremely awkward. Liu Buli turned to look at Lu Wuming beside him.
Clearing his throat, Liu Buli said, "Wuming, you heard them, didn't you? Shen Muzhi was completely lying to us, so we don't need to do what he said. Do you understand what I mean?"
He spoke very earnestly, his eyes full of expectation.
However, on this matter, he and Lu Wuming had never reached an agreement.
Facing his expectation, Lu Wuming seemed completely unaffected. His expression didn't change at all, and he calmly shook his head. He said, "Master, what are you talking about? I don't understand at all. How could I possibly hear the conversation happening outside through a closed door? I only heard what Physician Shen said inside earlier. He said we need to dual cultivate to regulate my body. Master, you need to be a little kinder to Wuming and follow the doctor's orders."
