Chapter 1846 - 1782: I Have Talent

Chiang Xiao said, "There are two kinds actually in the space, but still lacking three kinds."

"Is this for Old Master Jiang’s medicine?"

"Yes." Chiang Xiao replied, "It’s all what he needs. As for Dad, actually once the accumulated blood disperses, it’s fine after drinking more Spirit Spring Water."

In fact, internal brain bleeding wasn’t a big problem for her; as long as more Spirit Spring Water was consumed, the blood clot was gradually dissolving on its own.

The most troublesome issue now is the crystal in his brain.

Such a thing can’t just be dissolved by drinking Spirit Spring Water, because it’s not a natural bodily ailment, it’s an external implant.

"Uncle Six’s injury is okay?" Meng Xinian glanced at her and said, "But why do I always feel like you still seem very worried?"

If you were to say Chiang Xiaoxiao was that worried about Old Master Jiang, Meng Xinian wouldn’t believe it.

How could she have such deep feelings for Old Master Jiang?

Besides, since there was already a possibility of a cure, it shouldn’t cause such deep concern in her eyes. Although Chiang Xiaoxiao didn’t say it, he could still see it.

Since they had gotten to this point, Chiang Xiao decided to tell Meng Xinian the truth.

"Actually, last time Dad had a check-up, and the results showed there’s something in his brain." As Chiang Xiao walked, she recounted the conversation she had with Chen Baoshen that day.

Meng Xinian furrowed his brows.

"A crystal?"

What could that be?

"Wasn’t it inadvertently shot in by external force? Similar to bullets, some people privately manufacture and modify homemade guns, using something suitable as bullets, which can also penetrate the skull."

His words made Chiang Xiao pause.

Could that be a possibility?

Could it be that she was overthinking it, and it was actually just a type of homemade bullet?

"After going back, I’ll discuss it thoroughly with Grandpa Chen." Chiang Xiao sighed and said, "No matter what it is, it still needs to be removed through craniotomy, otherwise no one knows what will happen in the future."

That thing lodged in the skull is, no matter what, a threat.

No one really knows if in the future it might shift, posing a life threat to Ah Liu.

Meng Xinian said, "Craniotomy is very risky."

"That’s why I’m worried, and I haven’t told Dad about it yet."

"The Chief Alliance Officer and others don’t know either?"

"Hmm, they don’t know."

"I’ll tell Uncle Six after we get back." He thought that this matter, if told by Chiang Xiaoxiao, could make both her and Ah Liu sad, but he could convey it objectively and calmly, without affecting Ah Liu’s mood.

Chiang Xiao breathed a slight sigh of relief and said, "Okay."

Having Meng Xinian tell him, she also thought it was for the best.

They walked and talked along the way, with Meng Xinian also having her speak foreign languages to him.

"How is your foreign language so good?"

The way Chiang Xiao spoke sounded just like what he’d heard from phones and radios, similar to those foreigners, practically just like them.

She hadn’t studied abroad, and neither Peace Town nor Siyang Village had teachers who taught foreign languages, and even at the Third Middle School, she couldn’t have learned it so well, right?

Chiang Xiao blinked and said, "I’m smart, I have talent."

Meng Xinian chuckled and pinched her cheek.

Smart?

Talented?

Hmm. He believed it.

Last time they had entered the mountains to gather herbs, so the direction they had gone that time was not needed now, even if they found herbs, they were probably ones she already had in her space.

This time they went in another direction, and moreover, the pace was faster than before, heading directly into the deep forest.
