Chapter 51: The Price of Detoxification

Shigeru was moved by what he said, and turned to look at him with a smile. patted his somewhat thin shoulders comfortingly, and walked out of the cave silently.

The air outside the cave was slightly cold, and Amao inhaled deeply and exhaled slowly. After listening to Wu Nian's words, she suddenly realized that she was very selfish. At the beginning, she insisted on leaving Wunian, just out of loneliness and loneliness, she never only thought about herself, but she never cared about the feeling of Wunian.

He could have continued to be his little novice, changed temples, continued to worship the Buddha and chanted sutras, and lived in peace. But now? Living in this dilapidated cave with his unreliable self, he lived a hungry and full life.

If Wunian has good qualifications, it will be enough to cultivate immortals, and if he has no chance to become an immortal, then he will hate her one day.

Shigeru looked up at the clear blue sky and silently swore in his heart:

The sky is above, I am away from Mao, and I will not abandon Nan Wunian until he can have his own friends, his own world. Until, he doesn't need me anymore......

……

Qing Shu came back sooner than expected, and he placed the bamboo basket full of herbs behind him at the entrance of the cave and walked into the stone chamber.

In the stone room at this time, Wu Nian was elegantly picking up the potatoes on the plate under the infinite resentful gaze of the two brothers, Kui Chu and Ziying, and chewed slowly. Mao sat opposite Wu Nian, bored with his cheeks and watching him eat.

Kui Chu rubbed Ziying next to him with his elbow, and said suspiciously: "Third child, what do you say...... Are potatoes so delicious? I see this bald boy eats this every day, and he can't get tired of eating it? ”

Ziying looked terrified: "Second, second brother, do you want to try it?" ”

"What nonsense are you talking about, boy! Have you ever seen yourself eat your own? Kui Chu was recognized, so he was embarrassed not to look too much away, and no longer looked at Wunian dining.

Although Ziying next to him is timid, he is a more sincere person. Muttered endlessly: "I haven't seen it, if you eat it, I'll never see it." ”

"Are you itching?" Kui Chu Sen Sen said.

"Well, the skin is dry in autumn and it's a little itchy." Ziying's answer is like a stream.

"You...... There's a kind of you don't run! Come over to me! I promise not to kill you! ”……

When Qing Shu came in, he happened to see two round younger brothers "rolling" past him non-stop, so he sighed helplessly. When his gaze fell on Wu Nian, he couldn't help but purse his lips. He took two steps forward and said, "I found other medicinal materials for antidotes." Coupled with the gall of the nine-pupiled green python, your poison should be cleared soon. ”

- Thank you, Qingshu.

Shigeru stood up and gave him a grateful salute. She was thrilled to be able to speak again since she had been poisoned.

But the appearance of Qingshu undoubtedly rekindled her hope. She was back again, and she couldn't help but cheer in her heart.

"Don't thank me, have you forgotten? It's just our deal. Since you let us live in, I will not break my promise. Qing Shu smiled and glanced at Ah Mao, and then glanced at Wu Nian next to him.

"From tomorrow onwards, you will take the medicine for 7749 days, every day at noon, if you interrupt or take it at the wrong time, you will lose all your efforts, and these 49 days shall not be contaminated with meat. I'll let you have a daily decoction of Wu Nian. ”

Shigeru was unhappy when he heard that he couldn't get contaminated with meat.

She drooped her head, and the good mood just now was simply hit without a trace. She walked out of the cave and looked at her fat chickens in captivity from afar, and sure enough, God wouldn't let her be too happy, and she liked to follow her the most, and the mood was not good~=. =

"Wu Nian, you come out with me, and the work of decoction will be handed over to you in the future."

"Oh, what a ......," Wu Nian replied stiffly. He and Qing Shu didn't talk much, and this Qing Shu suddenly took the initiative to talk to him, which made him a little unaccustomed.

Back mountains, woods.

Wu Nian didn't expect Qing Shu to call him to this wood, isn't it just a decoction? Why be so cautious?

"I heard you used to be a monk?" Qing Shu asked solemnly.

"Yes, yes." Wu Nian was confused by Qing Shu's question, does this decoction have anything to do with whether he is a monk or not?

"Why are you vulgar? Have you broken the vows? Qing Shu continued his questioning.

"Of course I didn't break my vows! It's just that he made people, and he couldn't help himself, so he came here to cultivate immortals. Wu Nian summed up his indescribable story as Creation and Transformation, and in his subconscious, he has always been wary of this earth immortal of unknown origin, unwilling to reveal more information about himself.

Qing Shu smiled knowingly after hearing this: "You, are you willing to help Ah Mao?" ”

Wu Nian was a little uneasy by his question, this strange Qing Shu had been asking him such an inconsequential question since he came out, what was his purpose?

He was reluctant to answer, but out of politeness, he had to answer: "Ah Mao has the grace to save my life, and her business is my business." ”

"Okay, I'll tell you how to decoct the medicine, the formula of this medicine comes from the long-lost secret book of the ancient Shennong's family, you have to be cautious, if the amount of medicine is too much or less, it will be wasted, and there is ......"

The autumn wind is blowing, and the leaves in the forest are slightly yellow, but they have not yet fallen. The friction between the thousands of leaves converged into a long rustling sound, mercilessly drowning out the whispers of the two in the forest......

The world says that time is like a white horse, in Mao's view, only happy times are like a white horse that has taken off the leash, this unhappy time, it is simply like a year~=. =

"Shigeru! Stay away from Dumb! ”

"Shigeru! I'll collect the eggs in the nest, you can rest! ”

"Shigeru! What do you do on the tree? That magpie nest is empty, and I found them a new place to live yesterday! ”

Shigeru feels like he's going crazy by Wu Nian! She thinks that where is the white horse passing through the gap in the meatless days, it is simply a black donkey grinding~

This thoughtless is more strict than her fox mother's staring, so that she has no chance to take advantage of it. No matter how greedy she is, she won't joke about the poison on her body. She just wanted to see, just to see.

So, the two were in a stalemate for more than a month, of course, in this more than a month, Mao did not touch a single chicken feather, and Wu Nian was depressed and ate baked potatoes for more than a month.

Forty-nine days, forty days have passed. Very solemnly, Shigeru drew the fortieth circle on the stone wall with charcoal.

Mao felt that she was too guilty like this, this can't be done, she has to pull a cushion, and she is guilty of suffering together, she is a good brother!

So on the forty-first day of Amao's detoxification.

"Hey! Bald boy, what are you doing here? I'm looking for you. Ziying ran to Wu Nian, who was digging potatoes.

Wu Nian turned his back to him, his thin figure seemed to be thinner than when he first came, he didn't look back, just answered in a low voice, and continued the work in hand.
