Pei Huaian finally had a moment of clarity and was shocked as he looked at his own hands and then at Shao He before hurriedly running out.
"Master!" When Ah Mo ran out, Pei Huaian's figure had already vanished.

By the following morning, they still had not found him, and Shao He could not help but feel worried.
Perhaps prompted by some rumors he heard, Pei Chengye suddenly came to visit.
"What, what should we do?" Ah Mo said somewhat anxiously.
"Obstruct the soldier with a general and stem the water with earth; I'll go and stall Pei Chengye," Shao He calmly said.
In the front hall, Pei Chengye was sipping tea when he saw the approaching figure, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.
"Doctor Shao, why are you here?"
