Chapter 442 Sentinel to the World: The Delicate and Useless Guide VS The Cunning and Super-Powerful
After destroying all the evidence, Xie Linchuan pondered for a long time before making the simplest roasted sweet potato and a sweet potato and yam soup made by peeling and chopping sweet potatoes and yams.
Xie Linchuan gave a dry explanation: "I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I wanted to make you something to eat so you could eat when you woke up, but I realized I don't seem to have the talent for cooking..."
Xie Linchuan's mention of food made Su Jinyue realize how hungry she was. The sweet aroma of sweet potatoes wafting from the fire made her incredibly hungry.
"You cooked for me? What did you make? I can smell roasted sweet potatoes, can I eat them now?..."
Without waiting for Xie Linchuan's reply, Su Jinyue started digging through the sweet potatoes in the fire. Once she found one, she took it in her hand without caring that it was hot, peeled it, and started eating. She kept switching it from hand to hand as she ate, not wanting to put it down at all.
"Mmm~ Delicious!" Su Jinyue blew on the steam from the roasted sweet potato, and only after finishing one did she feel less hungry.
She peered into the pot Xie Linchuan was stirring and asked curiously, "What's in the pot?"
Xie Linchuan was initially captivated by Su Jinyue's roasted sweet potato, a smile unconsciously creeping onto his lips. Upon hearing Su Jinyue's question, he quickly responded.
"It's a soup made from sweet potatoes and yams, but it doesn't seem as good as yours."
It must have been simmering for quite a while, because Su Jinyue saw that the sweet potatoes and yams in the pot were already so soft and mushy that they were unrecognizable.
Su Jinyue showed no sign of disgust, took the spoon from Xie Linchuan's hand, scooped a spoonful from the pot, and drank it directly.
"No, it's delicious! This kind of porridge tastes better when it's cooked for a long time."
If you don't believe me, try it yourself.
Su Jinyue took the spoon and brought it directly to Xie Linchuan's lips, gesturing for him to try it quickly.
Xie Linchuan was somewhat flattered. He was stunned for a moment, and only after Su Jinyue urged him to drink quickly did he lower his head and take a sip.
"How is it? Isn't it delicious?"
Xie Linchuan nodded subconsciously and hummed in agreement.
His gaze was fixed on the spoon, and he belatedly realized that he and Su Jinyue were sharing a spoon, although they weren't using the same side.
The meal was simple for the two of them, but it was the sweetest meal Xie Linchuan had ever had.
After finishing her meal, Su Jinyue walked to the entrance of the cave and found that it was still raining outside. It had been raining for a day and a night, and there was no sign of the rain letting up.
It was raining, so Su Jinyue couldn't go out to gather herbs. She had just woken up and was feeling quite bored.
Xie Linchuan sat next to her, wanting to talk to Su Jinyue about the pills she had made last night.
Su Jinyue cured his mental pollution. Although Su Jinyue did not mention any reward, Xie Linchuan could not pretend that nothing had happened.
The due compensation should still be given. Moreover, this is not just his problem. In the future, there will be more and more sentinels with spiritual corruption in the Empire. We can't let Su Jinyue do all of them as free labor.
"Jinyue, about those pills you made last night..."
When Xie Linchuan mentioned the pills, Su Jinyue suddenly remembered that she didn't know the state of his mental sea after he took the pills.
"Oh, by the way, you took the pill this morning. How are you feeling? Has your mental state recovered?"
In response to Su Jinyue's question, Xie Linchuan smiled and replied, "My mental sea has fully recovered. Not only has it recovered, but I've also benefited from this misfortune, and my mental strength level should have increased by one level."
The Nourishing Spirit Pill is originally for nourishing the divine sense, while the Barrier-Breaking Pill is used in the cultivation world to break through inner demons. When the two pills are used together, it is inevitable that the divine sense will be enhanced and the level of spiritual power will rise. Su Jinyue was not surprised.
Su Jinyue asked Xie Linchuan in detail again, and then confirmed that his mental pollution had been completely cured.
Once Su Jinyue confirmed that Xie Linchuan was fully recovered, she felt relieved.
Xie Linchuan continued his previous topic: "Jinyue, my mental pollution was caused by a new type of insectoid infection during the battle with the insectoids."
This new type of Zerg has just appeared, and more Mind-Contaminated Sentinels will appear in the future. As far as I know, the Empire currently has no effective way to solve the problem of Mind Contamination.
But now, you've appeared!
You cured my mental pollution, but I want to ask, are you willing to help others cure their mental pollution? Were those pills you made last night effective for all Sentinels?
Of course, you won't work for nothing; I can guarantee they'll pay you.
Even if Xie Linchuan didn't say it, Su Jinyue knew from the plot that the empire's future was grim.
Su Jinyue made no attempt to conceal her abilities from Xie Linchuan, partly because he was her lover, and partly because she wanted to address the issue of spiritual pollution within the empire ahead of time.
Through her research on the mental pollution within Xie Linchuan's mental sea, she concluded that the Nourishing Spirit Pill and the Barrier-Breaking Pill were the best solutions to mental pollution, and fortunately, the final results proved this to be true.
The solution was already in place, and Su Jinyue had no intention of hiding it.
Of course, Su Jinyue didn't intend to give for nothing; she still wanted compensation.
Perfect timing! The Su family is involved in pharmaceutical research and owns a pharmaceutical company. We can simply leverage the Su family's platform to sell our products, which will also enhance the Su family's status – a win-win situation.
"I have only treated your case so far, and I cannot guarantee that the Nourishing Spirit Pill and Barrier-Breaking Pill will be effective for all Sentinels."
But I am at least 90% certain that these two pills can cure the Sentinel's mental pollution.
When the empire is in trouble, as a citizen of the empire, I naturally want to do my part for the empire. However, I only managed to make these two kinds of pills after consulting the pharmacopoeia collected by the Su family and conducting research.
"If I'm going to sell these two kinds of pills, I'll need to discuss it with my family first."
Su Jinyue knew that her transformation from a useless person to a genius was inexplicable; her spiritual body had transformed from a blade of grass into a tree. This could only be attributed to the guide's special physique.
As for why she made pills, Su Jinyue knew from her memories that the original owner often hid in the Su family's study to study some medicinal books because of her inferiority complex, and now she used it as an excuse.
Xie Linchuan nodded. No matter what form it took, as long as Su Jinyue was willing to offer it, that was fine.
He thought for a moment, then continued, "Jinyue, you saved me and went to great lengths to collect medicinal herbs and make pills to treat my mental pollution."
I'm willing to pay 100 million Imperial Coins for each of the two pills you took today.
As for how you saved me and used your mental power to help me treat my mental pollution, I feel that my gratitude to you cannot be measured in money.
From this day forward, as long as it's not betraying the empire or harming innocent people, you can ask me to do anything, even take my life!
