Chapter 145: Rejuvenating Balm

Plus more!

When Lin Xi and the four of them arrived at the city gate, the gate had just opened, and the four of them entered the city with a crowd carrying a flat burden. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

After freshening up, I saw that my grandmother had gotten up and was looking at her worriedly.

Lin Xi walked over and hugged Grandma's arm and said flatteringly, "Grandma, morning, did you sleep well last night?" ”

"Just came back, huh?" Grandma ignored Lin Xi's flattery, and glared at her, her eyes powerless.

"Grandma, you are really sharp-eyed! You can even see this, it's amazing! Lin Xi completely distorted the meaning of grandma, and the grandma who listened to it was sullen for a while, and stretched out her hand and tapped Lin Xi's head, "You are not allowed to be like this in the future!" With that, he went to the kitchen.

"Well, I know, I'll tell you when I go out in the future!" Lin Xi said loudly behind her.

Grandma's body that was moving forward paused when she heard Lin Xi's words, then sighed, shook her head and left.

Lin Xi didn't go back to his room until his grandmother entered the kitchen and couldn't see it.

The swollen blisters of the thumb that was burned yesterday by the black fire have disappeared overnight, but there are still a few sinuous black scars on the hand, which are obvious on the whole white hand. Lin Xi remembered that he seemed to have a bottle of rejuvenating cream that could remove scars, but the diet had been refined a long time ago, and he couldn't remember where to put it for a while.

She looked for the space and storage bag yesterday and didn't find it, so it was probably in the room, Lin Xi rummaged around, searched the room all over and couldn't find it, Lin Xi stood in the middle of the room and knocked his head depressedly, where did he put it?

At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open with a "bang", and then Lin Zhi's surprised voice said, "Sister, you are finally back!" You don't know how worried my grandma and I were yesterday, and you don't say a word when you go out......"

Lin Xi stroked his head, Lin Zhi Why did this kid have more and more tendency to chatter, it couldn't be influenced by Elder Chengfeng, thinking of seeing Lin Zhi again in five years, if he said more than that, Lin Xi shuddered and didn't dare to think about it.

"Sister, what do you want?" Lin Zhi saw his sister listening, her eyes gradually straightened, and she hurriedly shook her arm.

"Uh, do you know where I put my rejuvenating cream?" Lin Xi was woken up and remembered the purpose of his visit.

"Rejuvenating balm? Is it a clear plaster that smells like a flower? Lin Zhi thought for a while and asked, girls' things are like this, right? That's what that bottle contains.

It's been too long, and Lin Xi can't remember it clearly, so he thought about it carefully before he said vaguely, "Well, it should be it, where is it now?" My sister is in a hurry to use it! ”

Lin Zhi's eyes were a little evasive when he heard this, could he say that he gave away the bottle of rejuvenating cream.

When Lin Xi saw Lin Zhi's dodging eyes, he guessed that he should have lost it, "What's the matter, you won't give it to that little girl!" Lin Xi casually guessed a reason.

Lin Zhi raised his head in surprise, if he didn't know that his sister wasn't at home yesterday, or he really thought that his sister saw it.

Seeing his expression, Lin Xi still didn't understand anything, and deliberately teased him, "Which little girl, is she beautiful?" After saying that, he smiled evilly.

Lin Zhi's face turned red instantly, and he stomped his feet and shouted, "Sister! It was rare to see his little adult-like brother so helpless, and Lin Xi couldn't help laughing louder.

Seeing that Lin Zhi's face was even more helpless, Lin Xi hurriedly waved his hand and restrained the smile on his face.

The blush on Lin Zhi's face had faded, and he said, "Isn't there a little sister in the neighbor on our left?" It's the one called Xiaodouzi, she accidentally knocked over the pot when she was boiling hot water at home yesterday, and her whole hand was burned, I remembered that you have a bottle of rejuvenating cream to remove scars, so I gave it to her. ”

Xiaodouzi, it seems that there is such a little girl, she is her father's widow, and her mother depends on each other, and there is still an ancestral house, which is on the left side of her house.

"Well, but my sister also needs to use it, you see-" Lin Xi stretched out his thumb to Lin Zhi, "Why don't you refine another bottle for your sister?" You can't bear to see your sister always have this scar on her hand, right? ”

Lin Zhi saw the scars on his sister's hands, and nodded again and again, "Well, I'll refine a better bottle for you." By the way, sister, how did you get hurt? What did you do last night? ”

Lin Xi didn't answer his question, it's good to worry about this matter, turned Lin Zhi's body to face the door, and pushed him out, "Don't think about so many things, children, go and refine the rejuvenating cream, I'm still waiting to use it!" ”

Looking at the closed door in front of him, Lin Zhixiao shook his head like an adult, and sighed, let's go to refine medicine first!

There was no rejuvenating cream available, so Lin Xi had to replace it with something else temporarily, and when it was smeared, after rubbing for a while, he heard his grandmother say that it was time to eat, Lin Xi put down the things in his hand and went out to the dining table.

Xue Yi and Ji Nan also came back with Lin Xi and Xiaolan, and they also came out of the room one after another.

There are more people eating today, in addition to the red dates and barley porridge and pickles that grandma usually makes, she also specially fried three refreshing side dishes, Xue Yi also went out to buy some fritters and tofu brains back, looking at the fragrant food on the table, Lin Xi felt that the salivary glands were particularly strong this morning.

After a few people had breakfast, Xue Yi and Ji Nan went to their respective residences, Lin Xi felt that he might be tired last night, his body was very tired, so he took off his clothes and fell asleep on the bed.

I didn't wake up until mid-afternoon, and saw that there was a finger-long blue jade bottle on the table in the middle, and before I got close, I smelled a faint aroma of herbs, and I could faintly smell a slight aroma of cherry blossoms.

Lin Xi poured out some rejuvenating cream and applied it to the scar, which was cool and comfortable, and the effect was as good as ever.

Lin Xi thought about how to thank Lin Zhicai, gritted his teeth, and took a few spiritual grasses that were more than five thousand years old in the space and walked out.

Sure enough, seeing these spirit grasses, the smile on Lin Zhi's face didn't stop until the evening, Lin Xi nodded his head lightly, "It's just a few spirit grasses, do you need to be happy like this?" ”

"Sister, this is a five-thousand-year-old spirit grass!" Lin Zhi shouted, as if not doing this was enough to express his feelings.

Lin Xi shook his head helplessly, is he so short of spirit grass, "Okay, I know, tell my sister what spirit grass is lacking in the future." ”

Lin Zhi nodded and left with a smile.

At this time, Xiaolan walked in with a person.

Lin Xi glanced at it casually, it was Qi Zheng who led the team!

How did he get here?

This time it's better than ten days ago, at least the robe looks new, compared to the eggplant that was frosted that day, the spirit outlook is really good at this time, it seems that his family's business is gradually improving, so why is he still looking for himself?

"Sit!" Lin Xi picked up the teapot on the table, tested the water temperature just right, poured a cup of tea for each of the three of them, and then served it to Qi Zheng, he deliberately stood up and took it, with some nervousness on his face.

Lin Xi sighed slightly in his heart, the environment will change people the most, and the team leader Qi who was neither humble nor arrogant a few months ago has become a memory.

After drinking a cup of tea, Qi Zheng felt a little relaxed, and was thinking about how to speak, should he say it directly to the point, or should he say a few words first?

Lin Xi looked at his uncertain appearance, put down the cup, and looked at Qi Zheng, "Team Leader Qi is here today, is there something wrong?" "If it's okay, he won't come on purpose, right?

Qi Zheng opened his mouth and muttered, "There's something ...... something."

Xiaolan looked nervous when he looked nervous, laughed "poof", and comforted, "Don't be nervous, we don't eat people!" ”

Lin Xi also said, "I met you on the street that day, and I heard you say to those soft-footed shrimps, 'Our family is in some difficulty, it doesn't mean that our family will always be like this, don't underestimate people!'" At that time, I saw that you were not dressed very well, and guessed that there might be something wrong with your family, but after listening to your words, I think that even if your family has a problem, one day you will have your own caravan again, and you will be called 'Team Leader Qi', because of your tenacious quality, so I believe that you will not be buried here, so, Team Leader Qi, you, or you! ”

Qi Zhi didn't expect that one day it would be the former guest who said such a thing to himself, his eyes couldn't help but be red, and his nose was a little sour, he reached out and rubbed his eyes, rubbed his nose again, restrained those negative emotions, and said in a faint nasal voice, "Thank you!" ”

Lin Xi and Xiaolan nodded and motioned for him to say it.

"This matter started two months ago, my third brother was introduced by someone to buy a hundred bottles of rejuvenating cream from a casual cultivator at a very low price, this kind of thing used by immortal cultivators is very popular in the mortal bazaar, so after we got the rejuvenating cream, it was quickly sold after being diluted with water, and our family also made a lot of money." Qi Zheng stabilized his mind and said.

When Lin Xi heard it, it was actually about the rejuvenating cream, touched the sleeve, and could feel the hard material of the bottle, and when he went out, he casually stuffed the rejuvenating cream refined by Lin Zhi into his sleeve.

Qi Zheng paused, and then continued, "Who knew that just when we were happy, the loose cultivator who sold it to the third brother rejuvenating cream came to the door, saying that he was deceived by the third brother, and the rejuvenating cream could be sold for five hundred taels of silver a bottle in Baicaotang, and the third brother only gave one or two silver when he bought a bottle, we saw that the loose cultivation was violent, and he was still carrying a sword with a bright and recognizable person, and he didn't want to offend him because of the silver, so he promised to give him a small part of the price of five hundred taels of silver per bottle. He took all the other belongings from the family, and in the end all we had left was the old house and the furniture inside. Saying that he knew this, Qi Zheng's face showed a resentful expression, obviously, this matter is not over here.

Lin Xi saw that he was a little excited, and hurriedly poured him another cup of tea, and after drinking, Qi Zheng's face calmed down, and he continued, "I thought that this would be the end, we also made some money this time, and we wanted to save some money to go back to our old business, who knows, a few days ago, a few guests who bought rejuvenating cream came to the door." After they rubbed the cream we sold, not only did the scar not disappear, but the color of the skin that had been rubbed with the cream became dull and itchy, and the worst of the girl's wound festered on the same day. In order to appease them, they returned the money and compensated for the medical expenses, and the money earned in the past month or so went clean again. I thought it might be that these people's skin was too sensitive, and we were unlucky. A wry smile appeared on his face as he spoke.

Lin Xi and Xiaolan listened, glanced at each other, and both thought of a herb called Shen Wu, which is very similar to Chu Vanilla in the rejuvenating cream, if you don't look carefully, it is easy to confuse the two, could it be that Shen Wu was mistaken for Chu Herb when he cultivated the system?

"However, within two days, our front door was blocked, and it was full of customers who had used the rejuvenating cream we were selling, and these customers had similar symptoms to those in front of us. We checked with a doctor and found that it was indeed caused by the application of rejuvenating cream, which contains a deep black that can induce the skin to develop ulcers. Only then did we realize that we had been deceived by that Sanxiu, and he deliberately sold the poisonous rejuvenating cream to the third brother, and even beat us for the low price. However, our family's belongings have been taken away by the scattered cultivators, and the money earned a while ago has also been given to the first few people, but the victims of the guests always have to compensate, friends and relatives have already borrowed it, but it is still far away, and finally I thought of you. Qi Zheng said that he was a little embarrassed in the end, he used to lend money to others, but now he is borrowing from others, it feels really, different!

Lin Xi and Xiaolan looked at him quietly and didn't speak, because Lin Xi felt that he must have changed his mind.

"I originally thought that the casual cultivator was also an immortal cultivator, if he had been running a caravan before, he could still find one or two people to help talk, but now once he is home, he will turn around and leave when he sees me, so he should be ruined. Borrow some money first, and then pay it back slowly. After listening to your words, it dawned on me that I had decided to find that loose cultivator and get back the belongings that belonged to our family. I know that you are a cultivator now, and I hope you can help me. However, I still want to ask you to borrow some money to appease the victim first. ”

Lin Xi poured him another cup of tea and motioned for him to talk after drinking.

After that, Lin Xi carefully asked about the symptoms of those people, and finally determined that the doctor was right, the rejuvenating cream sold by the Qi Zheng brothers mixed with Shen Wu would not only cause the scar not to be improved, but to cause symptoms such as dull, itchy, and ulcerated skin.

Finally, he asked, "How much money did you lose them?" ”

Qi Zheng stretched out two fingers and shook them, Lin Xi frowned and said, "Two thousand taels? You're too easy to deceive! ”

Qi Zheng smiled and said, "Two hundred taels!" ”

Lin Xi didn't brow when he heard this, two hundred taels is not a lot, it is enough to buy a small yard in Taosang City. The bottle in his hand was refined with the best spirit grass, and the cost price was only one hundred taels.

Lin Xi pondered for a moment, took out the rejuvenating cream in his sleeve and handed it to him, "Look at this, this is a real rejuvenating cream." ”

Qi Zheng took it, poured a drop out of it, looked at it carefully, and said, "It's indeed much better than the one we bought." (To be continued.) )
