“If this algae is by the sea, we have to go to the sea to search! It will take too long to go back and forth!” Luo Cheng shook his head as he said with a frown.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she looked at Wu Qinghe.

“Wu Qinghe, divine again. Try to find out where we can find the centipede algae! ”

Wu Qinghe nodded and quickly took out his copper coins to divine.

“Hahaha, we’re quite lucky. We can find it here! We can find it after walking a hundred meters towards the southwest!”

Southwest, two miles?

As soon as this data came out, Li Xiaoran immediately thought of something.

Wasn’t two miles away from the Luo family’s house the official road?

Could the centipede algae they needed be found by the official road?

“Hurry up and take this painting to the side of the official road to hang it. Then, ask anyone who passes by. We might be able to find it!” Li Xiaoran urged.

Luo Ziyang understood and quickly picked up the painting on the table.

“Sister-in-law, draw a few more paintings and let Zi Cheng bring them over.

We’ll ask around when the time comes!”

Li Xiaoran nodded and began to draw again.

Seeing this, Luo Cheng followed over to take a closer look. Then, when Li Xiaoran was drawing the second painting, he also picked up a pen and paper to draw.

With Luo Cheng’s help, the two of them were much more efficient at painting.

Soon, a group of people appeared by the official road with the painting of centipede algae and started asking questions.

The results did not disappoint them.

Just as the sun set, Liu Zhongyi’s escort agency passed by the official road with another pile of goods.

Seeing Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng by the pipe, Liu Zhongyi quickly went forward to greet them.

“Xiaoran, why are you by the official road?”

When Li Xiaoran saw that it was Liu Zhongyi, she quickly walked forward.

“Uncle Liu, you came at the right time! You’ve traveled extensively, so have you seen this kind of seaweed?”

Liu Zhongyi looked at the drawing in Li Xiaoran’s hand in surprise.

“Girl, are you a fortune teller?! I happened to escort people to the sea this time and brought some seafood back. I think we might have the thing you’re talking about!”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she was delighted and quickly asked about it.

“Uncle Liu, is this true? Hurry up and take it out for me to see. We’re going to use this to save lives!”

“Take a look and see if it’s like this!” Liu Zhongyi took out some seaweed from the kelp.

Li Xiaoran found seaweed identical to the centipede algae and carefully identified it.

“That’s right! Uncle Liu, you’ve helped us a lot!” As Li Xiaoran spoke, she shouted at the people who were still looking for centipede algae, “Come over quickly. I found the centipede algae!”

When the group heard Li Xiaoran’s words, they quickly ran over.

After confirming it, Luo Cheng could not be bothered to thank Liu Zhongyi. He immediately rushed back with the thing.

Li Xiaoran paid Liu Zhongyi.

Liu Zhongyi did not accept it.

“It’s just some seaweed. Why are you being so polite with me?! Since it’s used to save lives, it’s a merit. I’m happy to help!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Liu Zhongyi’s words, she did not insist anymore.

“Then I won’t stand on ceremony with you! The next time you’re free, my husband and I will treat you to a meal!”

“Sure. I love good food!” Liu Zhongyi agreed.

After that, Liu Zhongyi and his buddies brought the goods home, while Li Xiaoran quickly went back to see Luo Cheng’s progress.

As soon as she reached the door of the pharmaceutical room, she heard cheers coming from inside.

“Hahaha, success, success!”

After Li Xiaoran walked in, she saw three men hugging each other while jumping up and down.

Seeing that they were so happy, Li Xiaoran leaned against the door and watched the three giddy men.

After the initial excitement, Luo Cheng was the first to discover Li Xiaoran’s existence.

Seeing her looking at him with a smile, Luo Cheng quickly ran over.

“Wife, I’ve succeeded. I’ve developed the antidote for the poisonous peony!”

Seeing Luo Cheng’s happy expression, Li Xiaoran reached out to hug her man.

“I heard you guys! My husband is the best!”

Luo Cheng was stunned for a moment. He did not expect Li Xiaoran to hug him at this moment.

However, he only hesitated for a moment before carrying Li Xiaoran up.

“I’m really overjoyed. I’ve been studying this poisonous peony for many years, but I’ve never been able to find a way. This time, I relied on Wu Qinghe’s divination to help me confirm three herb ingredients. However, I can’t be sure of the last herb. Fortunately, you’re my lucky star. You immediately helped me find the most important thing! If not, I wouldn’t have been able to find it even if I studied it for ten or twenty years!” Luo Cheng said to Li Xiaoran in an excited voice.

“Silly, don’t put the credit on me. If you hadn’t been diligent in your research in the early stages, you wouldn’t have been inspired even if I had mentioned the centipede algae. I can only say that this is the will of the heavens! The heavens saw your diligence, so they made Wu Qinghe and me appear at this moment to help you develop the antidote for the poisonous peony!” Li Xiaoran was sincerely happy for Luo Cheng.

None of the research results were discovered by accident. They were all developed by countless researchers through countless failures.

Therefore, this antidote was an affirmation of Luo Cheng’s previous efforts.

“Brother Luo Cheng, Sister-in-law, stop praising each other. Hurry up and make the antidote, then send it to Miss Shu!” Wu Qinghe thought of Shu Ruyue, who was lying on the bed, and urged.

Luo Cheng calmed down and let go of Li Xiaoran. Then, he said, “Go rest first.

I’ll make the antidote! When Miss Shu is safe and sound, we’ll celebrate!”

“Alright! I’ll make your favorite dish to reward you!” Li Xiaoran nodded and gestured for Luo Cheng to get busy.

After that, Luo Cheng and the others got busy again.

They already knew the formula for the antidote. Now, it was time to make the antidote.

Wu Qinghe knew nothing about herbs and did not know how to deal with herbs, so he left with Li Xiaoran.

Two hours later, after the antidote was made, Luo Cheng and Luo Ziyang handed the pill to Li Xiaoran.

Li Xiaoran fed Shu Ruyue some warm water after she put in the pill.

Along with the warm water, Shu Ruyue instinctively swallowed the pill in her mouth..
