Su Xiu flew to a stop over a dilapidated courtyard in the town, and then landed outside the door.

The courtyard is relatively large among the rows of houses nearby, and it should have been spacious in this area.

The red paint on the vermilion gate has peeled off a lot, and the air-dried white wood and red are intertwined, making it look very old.

Su Xiu pushed open the gate and walked into the courtyard, which was already full of dead leaves.

She walked through the corridors through the dead leaves to the inner courtyard.

In the middle of the inner courtyard is an ancient tree.

The leaves on the old trees have all gone, and only the bare branches remain, which look a little shriveled, and make people wonder if they will be able to spread their branches and leaves next spring.

Under the ancient tree, an old woman sat in a wheelchair made of yellow wood, basking in the warm sun, and fell asleep with her eyes closed.

The old woman has white hair, the skin on her face has dried up, and the wrinkles are like being carved by a knife, which makes people look creepy.

She was draped in a thick quilt and seemed to be afraid of the cold.

Su Xiu looked at the sleeping old woman, with a sad look on her little face, and her grandmother was now asleep for more and more time.

There was also a bit of expectation on her face, maybe she could enter the academy and ask for advice to treat her grandmother's injuries.

I heard that the teachings in the academy, the lowest cultivation is the Yuanying cultivation, and there are several Dongxu real people, and the mansion master and the two deputy mansion masters are the ancestors of the Mahayana period.

She tiptoed to the corridor to the left, her movements so light that she couldn't hear a sound, for fear of waking up her grandmother.

Su Xiu came to the kitchen, filled with the pungent smell of herbs.

She tidied up the kitchen, then picked out more than a dozen kinds of herbs and put them in a crockpot, and began to make a fire to boil the medicine.

She carefully controlled the fire, whether it was slow or urgent, violent or slight, so that the medicinal effect of the herbs could be brought into full play.

As soon as Lu Chen saw the old woman under the ancient tree, he found that she had been poisoned by the poison, which had invaded the internal organs, and even her soul was polluted.

The poison on the old woman's body is the same as the poison that erodes Su Xiu's second hidden spirit vein.

Its toxicity is very strong, and with Su Xiu's strength, it is absolutely impossible to remove.

It should have been the old woman who sucked the poison on her body to herself to save her life.

The old woman originally had the cultivation of the late stage of the four-turn Jindan, but the Jindan spiritual veins had been eroded and damaged by poisonous gas, and now she was not as good as ordinary people, just like a terminally ill old man.

According to Lu Chen's calculations, she can live for about a month at most.

Su Xiu was seriously boiling herbs in the kitchen, and the old woman might be awakened by the choking smell of herbs, and she turned her wheelchair to the kitchen with difficulty.

Su Xiu is now in the Jindan stage, and her perception is very keen, so she quickly sensed her grandmother's movement and hurriedly ran out.

She was very distressed when she saw the old woman pushing the wheelchair hard, so she hurriedly ran to her and shouted affectionately, "Grandma." ”

"Xiu'er, you're back. When the old woman saw Su Xiu, her face showed a flash of regret, and she quickly comforted her with a smile, "Xiu'er, it doesn't matter if you haven't taken the test this time, we'll take the test again next year." ”

There are three levels in the entrance assessment, which lasts about ten days.

Now that it has only been four days, Su Xiu has come back, and he must have been eliminated at the first level.

The wrinkles on her face are so deep that you can barely see the contours of her face.

The old woman took Su Xiu's little hand, patted it lightly and said, "Xiu'er, promise grandma that you must go to the school exam next year, and only when you enter the school can you have the opportunity to change your fate, and grandma can rest assured." ”

She knew that her life was short, and Su Xiu was left alone with no one to take care of, and she could hardly gain a foothold in the sinister cultivation realm.

If she can enter the academy to cultivate, she can leave with peace of mind.

"Grandma. Su Xiu looked at the old woman's wrinkled face, tears rolled in her eyes, and said, "Xiu'er has climbed to the top of Wentian Peak, and she has already obtained the quota to enter Wentian Academy without examination. ”

The old woman was stunned when she heard this, and said in disbelief, "Xiu'er really climbed to the top of Wentian Peak? Xiu'er didn't lie to grandma?"

She had heard that Wen Tianfeng was the place of trial for the disciples of the Cheng family's test clan, and all those who could reach the top were demons.

She knows Su Xiu's situation well, and she can barely be regarded as Tianjiao by opening up thirty-one spiritual veins.

How could she possibly climb to the top of Wentian Peak?

The old woman thought that Su Xiu couldn't bear her to be sad and lied to her.

She sighed with resentment in her heart, if it weren't for Su Xiu being poisoned, she would have opened up thirty-one spiritual veins.

"Grandma, it's true. Su Xiu let out a golden pill breath and said, "I don't believe grandma, Xiu'er is now in the golden pill stage." ”

"Jindan period!" The old woman sensed the Jindan breath on Su Xiu's body, and set off a storm in her heart!

She went to participate in the assessment only in the late stage of foundation building, and it was only in the past four days that she broke through to the early stage of Jindan.

Such a breakthrough speed is unheard of and unseen by her.

Su Xiu continued, "And Xiu'er condenses the Nine Turns Golden Pill, and when Xiu'er enters the school, she will seek the teaching of the school to see her grandmother." ”

"Nine turns of Jindan!" the old woman was shocked by Su Xiu's words again and again.

What is the concept of the Nine Turns Golden Pill?

In the entire cultivation realm, I only heard that the realm lord Lu Chen and his two wives, as well as the former first holy land of the Eastern Great Domain, the Holy Womb of the Shinto Academy, and the four of them were the Nine Turns Golden Pill.

(Lu Chen's other women were also Nine Turns Jindan and did not publicize it.) ）

Su Xiu not only broke through to the Jindan period, but also turned the ninth Jindan?

The old woman began to wonder if she was hallucinating because of the poisonous gas.

She grabbed Su Xiu's hand tightly, feeling the temperature of her palm, and believed that she was not dreaming.

Su Xiu said, "Grandma, the medicine hasn't been boiled yet, Xiu'er will go to decoction first, and grandma will soak the sun for a while." ”

She was worried that if she didn't control the heat for too long, the effect of the medicine would wane.

"Yes. Grandma nodded lightly and said, "Xiu'er, go quickly." ”

Su Xiu pushed her grandmother to a place where the sun could reach her, and then went back to the kitchen to continue boiling the medicine.

The old woman looked at the back of Su Xiu leaving, her cloudy eyes revealed pity, and then she looked up at the dazzling sunlight, as if she was thinking about something, and her face gradually showed resentment.

Su Xiu, who Lu Chen's Yuan Shen has been paying attention to, sees what is happening in the courtyard.

It is speculated that the resentment in the old woman's eyes is related to Su Xiu's poisoning.

Lu Chen appeared in front of the old woman, took out a pill and flew in front of her and said, "Swallow it, you can expel the poisonous gas on your body." ”

"You...... Who are you......" The old woman saw Lu Chen appear in the courtyard, her hair rose and she shouted in panic.

She looked at the pill in front of her and didn't take it, but looked at Lu Chen with fear, worried that he had a purpose.

"Lu Chen. Lu Chen indifferently and directly reported his name.

No matter who poisoned Su Xiu, he was vulnerable in front of him, and there was no need to waste time.

When the old woman heard Lu Chen's name, she felt very familiar, but she couldn't remember that she knew such a person.
