I Found the Cause of the Illness-It Seems I'm Not Completely Doomed...

"Ice Block..."

Little Li suddenly felt a lump in his throat.

Our Autumn Water Pavilion does have a reliable person.

He lifted his foot, intending to jog over, but after thinking it over, he walked over slowly and laboriously, sat heavily on the table, and relaxed his body with a sense of relief, as if a thousand-pound burden had been lifted.

"Huh? This kid was moving like lightning just now, what's wrong with him now?"

Has the condition worsened?

Shang Wu and Qin Yuzhi looked embarrassed.

They thought Li Mo was alright; they should have known better than to tease him.

"Let's take your temperature first."

Ying Bing unscrewed the Big-Headed Doll and took out a bronze-like material with tiny holes, resembling a feather shaft without feathers.

This is a small trinket she acquired during her demon-slaying adventures in the Southern Border.

As soon as Li Mo grasped it, ice began to form on it, turning into a piece of ice feather.

This indicates that his body temperature is very low.

"Hold it in your mouth." Ying Bing told him to open his mouth.

Li Mo did as instructed, and the feathers instantly turned red again, with the bronze feathers emitting flames.

This also indicates that his body temperature is very high.

"Wouldn't that be like experiencing both ice and fire?"

Shang Wu blinked.

"You are what you eat..."

Qin Yuzhi slapped her forehead. "You really did sneak some Snow Spirit Ginseng behind our backs yesterday!"

"..."

Li Mo ignored them, glancing at Ice Block's expression out of the corner of his eye.

"How are you feeling right now?" Ying Bing asked, lowering her eyes.

"I... I'm still okay."

With a physical body comparable to Calamity Beast, the Divine Hammer Little Overlord, Li Mo, revealed a 'weak' smile, "Perhaps it's just that I ran into a slight mishap during my training. I know my own body."

"Waaah, my precious disciple, please don't let anything happen to you!" Shang Wu cried out anxiously.

Qin Yuzhi raised one finger and finally said something plausible:

"His current condition is that he has excessive internal heat and is also affected by frost on his body. Treatment should start from the inside out, so we need to address the issue of his yang energy first?"

"What should we do then..."

She blinked and looked at the Ice Block.

Li Mo's eyes widened slightly. What was wrong with Qin Yuzhi? How could she suddenly be so intelligent... no, so spiritual?

They went absolutely on a killing spree.

The winner of the first Golden Statue Award for Best Actor was naturally not to be outdone.

Li Mo shook his head and sighed, "Maybe I'll be fine after a good night's sleep."

"?"

Ying Bing remained expressionless, gathering a wisp of Internal Breath at her fingertips, intending to let it circulate twice within his acupoints to ascertain the specific situation.

But before her delicate hand could even touch him, it fell into Li Mo's palm.

Little Li seemed very tired, and her eyes had dimmed slightly.

"In case... I mean, in case something really happens, please take good care of Hammer Treasure. I promised it I would find it a beautiful and good friend..."

"My dear apprentice, have a sip of strong liquor. I'm sick; a little bit of this will make me feel better."

Shang Wu quickly poured him another glass of wine.

Giving a patient strong liquor? And then letting them cool down? Well, this seems quite reasonable when applied to a master...

"Cough cough!"

But Li Mo started coughing as soon as he took a sip.

The liquor was sprayed on the ground, and first it froze, then... then it burst into flames!

What is combustible ice?!

To be honest...

The Golden Statue Award Best Actor winner's performance this year was below par, appearing somewhat exaggerated and even a little insecure.

It's even worse than some cubs pretending to have a cold because they don't want to go to school.

But there's a saying, "Concern leads to confusion."

"Just let Little Moon play with it..."

Ice Block suspected that Little Li was probably faking it, after all, he had a criminal record for tricking him in Southern Border and feeding him for three days.

Seeing his dejected appearance, Ying Bing's clear eyes couldn't help but tremble slightly.

What if it's true?

After all, he spent his days forging iron in the fiery veins, and he always wore that Pure Yang Long Robe (because it wouldn't burn).

Without protective measures, the Inner Scene Realm would probably be quite uncomfortable...

"What... are you putting on this show?"

Xue Jing carried his medicine box and stepped into the courtyard. Looking at the Autumn Water Pavilion, which resembled an intensive care unit, a small question mark appeared on his head.

Old Xue turned to look at Elder Han He and Elder Zeng and asked:

"What's going on?"

Elder Zeng was taken aback. "Hmm? This is how he looked when we carried him to the Autumn Water Pavilion."

Elder Han He nodded, "The illness doesn't seem to be getting worse..."

"Old Xue, you've finally arrived! Quick, come and take a look at him."

Shang Wu quickly made way for her.

Li Mo: "!"

Oh no, the reliable one has arrived.

Elder Han He and Elder Zeng, so you two didn't run away after all, but went to Cauldron Peak to call for reinforcements?

Seriously, is this reliable?!

"Hmm... these symptoms... are strange."

Xue Jing frowned, and after examining the patient's body using the four diagnostic methods (observation, auscultation, inquiry, and palpation), he let out a soft exclamation:

"Logically speaking, with his yang energy so strong right now, there shouldn't be frost forming on his body. How can he be cold on the outside but hot on the inside..."

"Oh, you mean this? I almost forgot."

Elder Zeng slapped his forehead, as if he had remembered something.

He reached into Little Li's pocket and pulled out a cold, gleaming piece of mineral with ten concentric patterns on it.

Xue Jing was taken aback. "Millennial Frost Silver Mine? Why did you two put that stuff on him?"

This stone is from the bottom of a cold pool deep within the fire vein, where extreme yang gives rise to yin. It is also a rare material for forging weapons, found in the Heavenly Frost Sword, and its counterpart is Crimson Fire Copper Ore.

"This kid's burning hot!"

Elder Han He stretched out his hand, his palm slightly red, and said irritably, "My hands are burning from carrying him; I need to cool him down."

"... So that's how he got his 'cold exterior'... huh?"

The reason why Li Mo freezes has been found.

It's physical cooling.

The vast Autumn Water Pavilion suddenly fell silent.

The withered leaves of the banyan tree rustled in the cold wind. A crow, appearing out of nowhere, flew overhead, emitting a noisy and unpleasant cry, as if mocking someone...

The atmosphere became quite awkward.

"Oh, I see... I'm fine... Haha, I knew it..."

Li Mo was no longer cold. Without the suppression of the Frost Silver Ore, the abundant Yang energy made his body start to heat up again.

But why do I feel a little cold for no reason?

He stiffly turned his head and saw Ice Block's clear and cold face, her expressionless demeanor quite kind.

No, not at all.

"I'm glad you're alright."

After saying this softly, Ying Bing turned and went upstairs.

"It's over..."

Little Li muttered to himself, it seemed he wasn't completely gone...

Elder Xue quickly wrote down a prescription to reduce internal heat, "Hey, let me prescribe some medicine for you. You've been getting too much internal heat lately, and you've been eating too well. You need to cool down and then rest for a few days, understand?"

"Well, I still have a weapon to forge, I have to go."

"Then you should rest for two days."

Elder Han He and Elder Zeng also spoke.

"Thank you both."

"Oh, it's nothing, don't mention it."

The two old men left the scene of the accident.

"Hmph." Even if Shang Wu was naive, she knew that her disciple had been faking it. She snorted and went back to her room.

"Why."

Qin Yuzhi shook her head when she saw him; the young man had clearly messed up.

In the end, only Little Li was petrified on the spot, leaving the place deserted.

A song involuntarily came to mind.

Snowflakes are falling, the north wind is howling.
