Neil remembered the daytime and couldn't get used to having one more person in the house. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Charlie Aget, an eight-year-old girl, two years younger than Neil, Neil always thought she was a water tribe, but she didn't expect that she was a hybrid of human and water tribes, inherited her mother's blue hair and blue eyes, and her body was affected by birth, and her physique has always been very weak.

Xia Li's father was a friend of Baker's, and Baker used to be a temple priest who could treat people, so Xia Li's father temporarily entrusted his daughter to Baker.

At this time, it was not yet nine o'clock, and Xia Li was arranged by Baker to go to bed early.

Only Baker and Neil were left in the house and had not yet gone to rest.

Upstairs there were only two rooms, Baker's bedroom and Neil's room next to it.

After Xia Li came, Baker gave up his room, and changed all the bed boards, quilts and even pillows for a short time to let Xia Li live, during this time, Baker temporarily slept on the sofa in the living room.

"Neil, come over here. ”

Neil came out of the kitchen, brought hot milk tea and coffee, walked to the table and put it down, sat down on the chair next to Baker, and watched Baker flip through a thick book.

"Uncle, you really took out this thing. ”

"I don't ask you to memorize the whole book like I do, you're a smart kid. Baker said to Neil, "I hope I want you to learn as much as I can, and when you're older, I'll tell you more." ”

"I want to know about my parents, uncle, do you know?"

“……”

"Uncle, don't you know, you were like this at the beginning, you lied to me, and now you ......."

"Sorry...... I really ...... about your parents" Neil thinks he's been lying about it, thinking he knows his real parents and expects himself to tell his real parents more.

However, Baker knew nothing and told Neil that Neil must be even more disappointed, at least, hoping that he would keep the expectation and not be truly disappointed.

Baker sighed deeply, remembering that Baker had a quarrel with a friend when he was five years old, and went home to hide in his room and cry, Baker coaxed for a long time to get Neil to stop crying, and when Neil asked about his mother, Baker told Neil the first lie, concealing that Neil's family had been ...... when he was born facts.

Neil was tired of crying and quickly fell asleep, and the next day, a regular customer came to the store, and not long after the pharmacy opened, Baker met the first customer, the regular customer's father's leg could not walk, and Baker helped the other party heal his legs. This matter has always been remembered by the regular customer, and for so many years, he will visit once a month.

The regular customer naturally knew Neil as well, and Baker talked to the other party about Neil, and Baker guessed that Neil would not wake up so early, after all, Neil was too tired last night.

Unexpectedly, what Baker said was heard by Neil who happened to come out, and the matter of Neil's parents could not be hidden, so Baker could only tell Neil the truth.

It was also from that day that Neil changed his name to Baker and has not changed since.

After all these years, Neil has probably gotten used to it, and Baker thinks Neil still holds a grudge against it. But there is no way, Baker has more things to teach Neil, and Neil, unlike other children, is more thoughtful and precocious.

The only consolation in Baker's heart is that Neil is really a smart kid who knows what he needs and what he takes from himself. He had been teaching this child wholeheartedly, which was also a kind of compensation, and originally, Baker planned to wait until he was older to tell the truth.

At that time, Baker regretted his gaffe, but he could not change the facts.

This cruel truth was known to this child so early, and Neil probably couldn't have had an innocent and happy childhood like other children, and knowing or accepting this reality was something that even adults found heavy.

Sometimes, Baker didn't know what mood to use to face Neil, all he could do was try to teach the kid what he had in his head, but fortunately, Neil didn't particularly hate this kind of learning. Otherwise, forcing a child to study, let alone Neil, will be burdened in the long run.

Halfway through the lesson, Neil watched Baker turn the book to page 998 and the previous page 547, and Baker asked Neil to compare the differences between the herbs on the two pages. Neil read all the words on these two pages and understood the difference between them.

The book is very detailed, and each page is full of pictures of medicinal herbs, several diagrams from the growth period to the flowering and fruiting period, and there are many text supplementary explanations arranged next to it, explaining in detail the characteristics of those medicinal herbs.

This thick book has a thousand pages and records a thousand medicinal herbs. Each page of the book is not made of the kind of ordinary book paper, but a hard paper that resembles a cover. Generally, a thousand-page book is thick enough, and the thickness of this book is even more exaggerated than that kind of book, and it occupies a large place on the shelf, and every time you take it out or put it in, you have to hold it with both hands, not to mention, it is really heavy.

"Neil, let's keep this book in your room for now, I'm worried about waking up Xia Li, she's a patient and needs a lot of rest. ”

At the end of the study, Neil had no doubts and heard Baker's words.

"Ah, put it in my room, uncle, you just give it to me? ”

"Don't you even have the strength to hold a book?" Baker smiled, "You don't think you have a shower yet, so hurry up and wash it." ”

Neil nodded and thought for a moment, then said, "I'll leave it to you, uncle, it's hard for me to pick up such a heavy thing!"

Baker held the thick book of the Encyclopedia of Herbs in his left hand, and pressed Neil's head with his free right hand.

The next day, Baker got up from five o'clock, walked downstairs to the hall that had been set up as a drugstore, picked eight or nine herbs on the shelves, mixed them all together in the kitchen and began to boil them.

An hour later, Baker came out to check the time, then went into the kitchen, opened the lid of the pot, smelled the smell, and felt that it was almost there, so he scooped the boiled medicinal soup into the bowl. Baker brought the medicinal soup to Xia Li's room, and when he entered, he found that she had woken up.

"Good morning, Mr. Baker. "When Baker came in, Xia Li was wearing a fur coat, the weather was very cold during this time, and ordinary people were fine, but people with poor health like Xia Li definitely couldn't stand it.

"Good morning, Charlie, you don't have to wake up so early. Baker came over with the medicine and cake, "Eat some snacks before drinking the medicine." ”

"Hmm. Xia Li obediently ate the cake so that her stomach had something to put on the bottom, and then drank the medicine.

"When you get better, I'll ask Neil to take you to a workout in the morning. ”

Xia Li smiled, her eyes flashing with a bit of confusion, Baker's words seemed to be a distant dream, she never really thought that there would be a day. Staring at Xia Li's face, Baker knew what she was thinking, and the kid couldn't hide his thoughts on his face.

Baker shook his head, "You should be like your father, be more confident and optimistic, I can assure you that I will prescribe you medicine for three years, and after three years, your health will be much better than now." ”

Xia Li's eyes instantly showed a light of hope, but the next second she became hesitant, and looked at Baker with a timid gaze, and asked Baker for verification: "Mr. Baker, is this really the case?"

"Every two weeks my legs hurt a lot, like they were broken, and the pain was unbearable. My father told me that I had to be patient, and my mother had this kind of pain when she was younger. ”

Is it ...... ...... "foot disease?"

"Mr. Baker?"

"It's nothing, anyway, hurry up and take the medicine, it won't work if it's cold. ”

"Hmm!" Xia Li showed a bright smile, picked up the bowl and drank, not afraid of bitterness at all.

Putting away the empty bowl, Xia Li continued to rest in the room, returned to the bed, and looked at the ceiling in shock.

“……”

"It's still the same ...... here"

Xia Li has been living this kind of life, her father does not allow herself to go out of the room at will, as if she is imprisoned, Xia Li understands very well that her father forbids herself to go out for her own good. But on these days, I can't go out every day, and I'm always very sad and sad.

Baker closed the door tightly, walked down the corridor with a light step, and went down the stairs lightly, putting the two empty bowls back into the kitchen.

“……”

"Blue hair and blue eyes, sure enough, he completely inherited this bloodline, and Emily was like this at the beginning, it's all a matter of bloodline......" Baker whispered to himself, at the beginning, when he was in the academy, he met Emily and Cuoy, Emily's legs hurt as if they were crushed, and the pain was unbearable.

Even so, Emily endured it, and by then, Baker had learned her first light-based healing magic, trying to ease the pain in her legs every time she had a seizure.

Baker's healing magic didn't work on Emily's legs, and he later approached the priest of the temple and the result was the same.

No amount of healing magic could help Emily.

Later, on the day of graduation, when preparing to separate, Emily revealed her true identity, she was a princess of the water tribe, not an ordinary water tribesman.

Emily also said that her mother and grandmother both had this kind of foot disease, and there were many branches in the Aquarium, among which the purest blood and the most powerful were the Aqua people who belonged to the blue-haired and blue-eyed branch. This branch of the water tribe rules the entire water tribe and is the king of all the water tribes, and there is no place in the sea that this branch of people cannot go.

They are natural kings of the sea, and all the demonic beasts in the sea are driven by them, even if they are ninth-order or even tenth-order demonic beasts in the sea, they will instinctively surrender to them.

Compared with other aquatic tribes, this group of people with the purest and most powerful bloodline is the most suitable for living in the sea, and because of this, it is also the most unsuitable for leaving the bottom of the sea.

Although they come to land, the tail will naturally disappear and be replaced by feet.

This group of water tribes has to pay a lot more than other water tribesmen to come to land, so Emily will have a foot disease every time in a while, which can not be solved by magic, and the disease of bloodline problems, even the high priest is helpless.

"Xia Li is obviously a celebrity, but she has completely inherited Emily's bloodline, so she will have this kind of problem...... She also had other problems that fell on her at birth...... It's not easy, it's hard for this kid. Baker couldn't help but sigh, in a sense, it was very similar to Neil when he was born.
