Chapter 11: The Art of Ambiguity

Ha, get rich!

Seeing that the merit value on the panel had become 10, Lin Ning's heart blossomed, and he was even more excited than chasing a stunning beauty in his previous life.

Because beauty is something outside the body, and the merit value can really become its own strength!

"Brother-in-law, why are you so happy?"

Jiu Niang, who was sitting in the barrel and didn't want to come out, lay on the edge of the barrel, looked at Lin Ning with a smile and asked.

Lin Ning straightened his face and said, "Am I happy?" ”

Jiuniang tilted her little head and said, "You can't fool me!" Brother-in-law is just happy...... Why? ”

Lin Ning smiled and said, "Because I am carrying Xiao Jiu'er, if you are happy, I will be happy." ”

When Jiuniang heard this, her little face turned red, she blinked her big eyes and looked at Lin Ning directly, and after a while, she said with tears in her eyes: "Brother-in-law, you are finally good to me, woo woo...... Aunt Chun used to say that as long as I have been close to my brother-in-law, my brother-in-law will be close to Jiuniang sooner or later. I've finally arrived, woo! ”

Lin Ning's eyes were soft, he looked at Jiu Niang and said softly: "Well, we are relatives, we are family members, how can we keep bullying Xiao Jiu'er, Xiao Jiu'er is so cute......" Seeing Jiu Niang's face red again, Lin Ning smiled and said: "Okay, let's go home after the last one, otherwise Aunt Chun will teach us a lesson." ”

"Yay? There's another one, it's gone......"

Jiuniang personally led the team, and it was clear that the water tanks of the lonely and widowed old people in the village had been filled, how could there be another one?

Lin Ning smiled when he heard this, and took Jiuniang to a house at the foot of the mountain north of the cottage......

……

"Brother Ning wants to learn the art of Qihuang?"

In the Qingyunzhai Medicine House, a white-haired old man looked at Lin Ning and asked in disbelief.

Xiao Jiuniang also opened her mouth in surprise and looked at Lin Ning......

Lin Ning bowed slightly, and said softly: "Grandpa An, Lin Ning has not been a weapon since he was a child, and he is not a martial artist, and he is ashamed to be the son of the first to take the exam." Nowadays, everyone in the cottage has talents and contributes to the cottage. Ning didn't have the roots of martial arts, nor did he have the talent of the third uncle, thinking about it, he didn't know that the sky was high and he wanted to try the art of the apricot forest. If you can have one or two fools, you can also share the worries of the cottage and not be a beetle for nothing. ”

After hearing these words, the very respected old man in Qingyun Village was impressed by Lin Ning.

What Lin Xiaoning was like in the past is obvious to all, and it is certain that it will never be like this.

In Lin Xiaoning's eyes, the people in the cottage are almost the same as his slaves, and they are all unconscionable slaves and ungrateful.

So I always look at people with my nostrils, or with hateful eyes.

When have you ever seen him bow down so gently and humble?

An Langzhong looked at it and rubbed his presbyopia, then looked at Lin Ning, and saw that he was still saluting, so he hurriedly said in surprise: "Brother Ning is studious, it's a good thing, get up quickly, get up quickly......" and then tried to ask: "If Brother Ning is good at this apricot forest technique, you might as well get up tomorrow and come to my medicine house, although the old man has shallow medical skills, he will also teach carefully, and live up to the life-saving grace of the old village owner......"

After Lin Ning got up, he said with a smile: "After all, Grandpa An has a spring and autumn period, and there are important things to heal every day, so it is better to give me a medical book first, after I am familiar with it, I will pass Grandpa An's examination school, and then study further." ”

When An Langzhong heard this, he was more and more surprised by Lin Ning's reasoning, seeing that he didn't seem to be smiling, thinking of the kindness of the ancestors of the Lin family to him, he gritted his teeth, led Lin Ning into the inner room alone, and took out a book of paper that was already dark yellow and several inches thick.

An Langzhong looked at the thick books in his hand and said with some sadness: "The juniors in the cottage are all good at practicing martial arts, and the girls are rarely literate." Moreover, if you want to teach you to be serious, it is not easy for the girl's family to be old...... Now most of the old bones are buried in the soil, but I don't know who can catch this medicine house. Now Brother Ning, you are willing to learn this technique of disambiguation, you are really happy. This half of the "Hundred Herbs Sutra" was passed down from the old teacher to the old man. Back then, because the Medicine King Valley was trying to explore the secret of the dragon's blood rice, the news leaked out without secrecy, and as a result, it was ordered to be punished by the Black Ice Terrace, the Imperial City Division and the Jixia School Palace...... Hey, there is a huge Medicine King Valley, leaving only the old man and the teacher, who have slipped through the net, and the teacher also died on the way to escape, and the second half of the "Hundred Herbs Sutra", which hides the secret of the dragon's blood and rice, is nowhere to be found...... That's it, let's not talk about that. When people are old, they love to talk a lot. Brother Ning must remember that Fang Cai's words must not be spoken, otherwise there will be a catastrophe in Qingyun Village! With this half of the "Hundred Herbs Sutra", it is enough to deal with the vast majority of the world's suffering. The second half, in fact, is all about exploring dragon blood rice, which is a big bane, so don't learn it. ”

Seeing that An Langzhong's old face was full of remorse, Lin Ning hurriedly said: "Grandpa An, don't worry, Ning is not a person who is a tongue-in-cheek." ”

Hearing this, An Langzhong nodded slowly, and handed over the first half of the "Hundred Herbs Sutra" to Lin Ning with a solemn face......

……

"We're back!"

As soon as she entered the Mozhu Courtyard, Xiao Jiuniang, who was sitting in the wooden barrel and holding a pair of sugar pills from the medicine house, cheered.

After a while, I saw Aunt Chun walking out of the kitchen wearing an apron, standing under the lamp and looking at the silly two people who were smiling angrily, and said, "Do you still know to come back?" Hurry up and wash it, I wrapped the tiger meat bun and sauce the fat bear paw, hurry up and eat! ”

"Oh!!"

Not to mention Xiao Jiuniang, even Lin Ning and Cui'er, who was carrying all kinds of small cloth bags for Jiuniang and holding rabbits behind her back, swallowed their saliva exaggeratedly.

Seeing Lin Ning and Jiu Niang looking back at her, their big faces turned red, and they said in a loud voice, "Miss...... Master Lin, I'll go back first. ”

With that, turn around and leave.

Jiuniang looked up at Lin Ning, but didn't say anything.

Lin Ning thought for a while and said, "You can stay too." ”

When Cui'er heard this, she looked back at Lin Ning like a ghost, and Jiuniang was surprised and delighted, although Lin Ning had already given her too many surprises today.

Cui'er looked down at Lin Ning in confusion......

Lin Ning likes talented and beautiful women, and likes Miss Gaomen, which is already a well-known thing in the cottage, he doesn't even like Tian Wuniang's kind of stunning beauty in the world, and dislikes being rude and despicable, not to mention a good woman like Cui'er who can run a horse on her shoulders?

In Lin Xiaoning's words: "Every time I see Cui'er's face, I want to use a knife to cut open my stomach, and then pull out my intestines to tighten my neck, until the tongue that spits out covers my eyes......"

Anyway, the viciousness of the words is enough to make a girl with almost no psychological tolerance really commit suicide.

Today it is......

"You can't stay too far away from Xiao Jiu'er, whether it's inside the cottage or outside. Let's have a bite to eat......"

After that, Lin Ning put down the flat burden, took the flowery Jiuniang out of the barrel, and went back to the house alone to put the "Hundred Herbs Sutra" away.

When I came out again, I found that Jiu Niang was more sticky than before......

"Brother-in-law!"

"How?"

"Brother-in-law!"

"Stand and speak."

"Sister...... Husband...... Yes! ”

"Stand still!"

"Sister! Husband!! Yes!!! ”

"Smack!"

"Ouch! Why did my brother-in-law beat me? ”

"I thought you hit a guest."

"Hmph, brother-in-law is less bluffing, there are no ghosts at all! Don't run, I'm going to follow you! Don't run, giggle! ”

……

Canteen.

"Ning'er, eat more. You've been picking up water for a day, aren't you tired? ”

Aunt Chun pushed the burning red bear paw to Lin Ning, and the other one had already been held and gnawed by Jiu Niang.

Aunt Chun didn't eat it herself, she said that she didn't like greasy, and Cui'er naturally didn't either, Aunt Chun used to like her, but she doesn't like it anymore today......

Lin Ning took the knife with a smile and divided the bear paw into two, half of which was sent to Aunt Chun's plate and half was kept for himself.

gave a small part of Jiu Niang's hand to Cui'er, who was burying her head and swallowing saliva......

Seeing that Aunt Chun looked at him with an unkind face, Lin Ning smiled and said: "In the future, Cui'er will always follow Xiao Jiu'er, Xiao Jiu'er is so naughty, she has to bother, treat her first." ”

Looking at Lin Ning's handsome face, a pair of star-like eyes were warm and peaceful, Aunt Chun recited 10,000 Buddha names in her heart, and she really became a good child......

……

After dinner, Aunt Chun asked Cui'er to take Xiao Jiuniang back to Cangsong Courtyard to sleep.

Aunt Chun is from a wealthy family, and she still has her attachment to some rules, and at night, girls must go back to their own homes to sleep, unless something big happens.

Or because of her rules, Tian Wuniang was relieved to let her take Xiao Jiuniang with her every day......

After Lin Ning returned to the west wing bedroom, he blew the fire and lit the oil lamp, and after a long exhale, he put the first half of the "Hundred Herbs Sutra" on the table, and after slowly exhaling, he read softly:

"Heavenly Dao."

Immediately, the character panel appeared in front of me.

Lin Ning: Lv 1 (8/10)

Merit Value: 10

Strength: 40 Dexterity: 18 Intelligence: 7 Charisma: 3

Skill Column:

Qiankun Jin: Small Achievements (0/150)

And as Lin Ning's gaze fell on the pages of the "Medicine King Sutra", a dialog box suddenly appeared:

Discover the assistive skills medical book "Baicao Jing" (the upper part), do you want to learn it? Required merit value: 2, current merit value: 10

Lin Ning nodded without hesitation, and then there seemed to be something more in his mind......

After thinking about it carefully, he found that these extra things were some of the most basic knowledge in medical skills, such as the shape, characteristics, and uses of various herbs, such as the major acupuncture points and functions of the human body, such as knowing countless prescriptions......

But this knowledge is very shallow, and I only know what it is, but I don't know why.

He knew the contents of the prescription, but he couldn't use it.

Lin Ning looked at the character panel again, and saw that there was an additional medical skill in the skill bar.

"The Book of Herbs" (Part I): The First Glimpse of the Door (0/10)

The distance from upgrading to a small achievement realm is only two merit points!

Lin Ning smiled dumbly when he saw it, although he had some regrets, he was not in a hurry to do good deeds in the middle of the night to accumulate merits......

And even if he wanted to do it, there was no place for him to do it in the cottage now.

The water tank in the home of the lonely elderly is enough for them to eat for several days, and the rest of the people's ...... Seeing Lin Ning's late night visit, I was afraid that I would suspect that he had some bad intentions.

Now that he has "first glimpsed the door", Lin Ning is not in a hurry.

After collecting the "Hundred Herbs Sutra", I went to the creek behind the house to wash, and then went back to the house to sleep.

A bright moon is in the sky, and the night is quiet and quiet.

A few insects chirped softly.
