At the same moment when Zhu Shihua explained the "Absolute Pulse Heart Sutra" to Pu Zixuan, in the courtyard of the Forgotten Worry Hall, Chen Shuqing was humming a small song, engrossed in a stone mortar of herbs, and under the hot sun, fine beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, and he wiped it with his sleeve from time to time.

After leaning less, Chen Shuqing shouted at the pharmacy: "Mother-in-law, it's ready." ”

Wu Youxiang walked up to Chen Shuqing slowly and smiled kindly: "Ouch, my Shuqing girl is really good at making a living." I'm really embarrassed, obviously you are a patient, but you still have to trouble you to work for us, ashamed, ashamed! ”

Chen Shuqing smiled: "What did you say?" It's because I want to do it myself, so I took the initiative to find some work to do, and I'm idle anyway, so I should be filial to my mother-in-law. After a while, I will go to the backyard to fertilize the flowers and plants. ”

"Okay, come, give me my hand, and I'll show you again." Wu Youxiang took Chen Shuqing's right hand again, picked up the pulse, leaned less, and said easily, "Not bad, your pulse is already very stable, and the wound is almost healed, and it will be a full moon night in three days, and then the demonic power will recover, and it will be completely healed." In this short period of time, I will continue to do breath therapy with you to consolidate and consolidate. ”

Chen Shuqing was a little disappointed: "Then, mother-in-law, are we going to separate?" ”

Wu Youxiang grinned and said: "Miss Shuqing, that day, I thought about what you told me for a long time, whether I want to go on the road with you, and I always wavered between going and not going, but last night, I had a dream, and I wanted to take time to talk to you." ”

"Okay, mother-in-law, you say."

"Yesterday, the left side came to my dream, in this courtyard, where we have lived together for more than twenty years, and he still looks so young and healthy. He saw me, smiled and said that he was doing well over there, told me not to worry, and then said twelve words to me. ”

"What twelve words?"

"He said, 'Lower medicine heals people, Chinese medicine heals diseases, and upper medicine heals the country.'" Then he asked me, 'Youxiang, do you still want to be a good doctor and help the world?' ’”

"Medical country? This is the first time I've heard of this. "Chen Shuqing plays with taste.

Wu Youxiang said melancholy: "Alas, I woke up from the dream immediately, and I was already in tears, I wanted to hear him say a few more words, but he just left again." I sat lonely at the head of the bed, thinking in my heart that when I first met him, I often talked to him about my dream of becoming the best doctor in the world, saving the people in the world, and making other people's families less suffering like ours. However, today, I am more and more aware that I am wrong, if the country is so broken, and the demons are so rampant, what can I change for the people of the world with a little medical skill...... Miss Shuqing, I have decided, if you don't dislike my old bones, I will go with you. ”

When Chen Shuqing heard this, she jumped up happily and hugged Wu Youxiang tightly: "Great! Mother-in-law, from now on, we are your relatives, thank you! ”

Wu Youxiang patted Chen Shuqing on the back and said with relief: "Don't thank me, if you want to thank my husband, thank me on the left side, it was he who pointed out the direction for me and made me understand that a doctor can do more for the world." Okay, three days later, when you recover your demonic power, let's go to the Fairy Sword Hall to meet Pu Zixuan together. You don't want to mess with him anymore. ”

"Got it, mother-in-law, don't worry, hehe!" Chen Shuqing was excited, but also worried, "By the way, mother-in-law, what about Li Zhong, Qingxia, and Xiaoyan?" Forget about the hall of worries

Without you, they won't be able to support it. ”

Wu Youxiang had already made arrangements for the future of the three of them, and said earnestly: "Hehe, the three of them, I talked to them separately early this morning, do you think they are willing to serve my old woman for a lifetime?" Those two girls and Li Zhong were all looking at the face of me curing their serious illnesses in the past, and in order to repay the kindness, they reluctantly stayed at the foot of this mountain. Because of my hunger sickness, they have been tossed enough, not because they don't want to leave, but they are afraid that once I get sick, there will be no one to take care of me, so I can only wait to die. Now that my stubborn illness has been removed, they are relieved, other girls, sooner or later they are going to get married, as for Li Zhong, he has learned a lot from me, and he has long had the ability to stand on his own, so as soon as I told them my plans, they all expressed their support, and I don't have to drag them down anymore, I am also relieved in my heart. ”

Chen Shuqing said happily: "That's great, listening to my mother-in-law say this, I don't have any shame towards them, I hope they all have a bright future." ”

Wu Youxiang looked around the courtyard melancholy and sighed, "A better future? Alas, I have been in this courtyard since I was born, and in those years, where were there foreigners, where were there rebels, and where were there monsters, I always felt that this world was simple, full of birds and flowers, so being a doctor and guarding the health of the people was a great creation. Now that the world is full of devastation, people's hearts are not ancient, and sometimes I see a life passing away, but I gradually feel numb, and the mission of this courtyard, I think it's time to come to an end. However, in such a chaotic era, when will it be the end? ”

Chen Shuqing said: "The Great Qing Dynasty has lasted for more than 200 years, and I have even watched how it has become like this step by step. Although the change of dynasties and social turmoil are eternal laws, I vaguely feel that the whole world is changing, and this round of great turmoil is different from that of previous dynasties. We can't do much, but at least we can stop the demon world from causing chaos in the world, and let humans choose the world they want. ”

Wu Youxiang said with a smile: "Miss Shuqing said it so well, I, an old woman, also have a sense of mission about this...... Okay, you continue to be busy, I'll go to the kitchen for dinner, don't fill my stomach, how to achieve such a grand goal of ours, hehe. ”

Chen Shuqing looked at the back of Wu Youxiang walking back to the wing, and suddenly felt that the old woman's pace was no longer as faltering as in the past, as if she was twenty years younger because she had rediscovered her life purpose.

At this time, it was almost noon, Chen Shuqing retracted her thoughts, and was about to return the medicinal materials to their places, so she shouted in the direction of the pharmacy: "Qingxia, Xiaoyan, please come here!" ”

After a while, without receiving a response, Chen Shuqing couldn't help but shout again: "Qingxia - Xiaoyan - are you there?" ”

Seeing that the pharmacy still didn't respond, Chen Shuqing suddenly wondered, just more than half an hour ago, although Li Zhong went out to the grave, Qingxia and Xiaoyan had been busy working around the pharmacy, even if they left Chen Shuqing's sight temporarily, they would not say goodbye.

So, maybe they went to the back cover door, Chen Shuqing thought so, and continued to shout while walking in the direction of the back cover door: "Qingxia - Xiaoyan - "

"Are you looking for these two women?" Suddenly, an unfamiliar man's voice came from the roof of the pharmacy.

Before Chen Shuqing could react, in front of her, the bodies of two women fell lifelessly from the roof to the ground, spitting blood, it was Qingxia and Xiaoyan!

Then a little boy went from the roof at lightning speed

flashed in front of Chen Shuqing and asked, "Where is that Pu Songling's descendant?" ”

This little boy is the weird boy who appeared in Guiping Market before.

Chen Shuqing suddenly felt as if her whole body had been struck by lightning, and an indescribable sense of fear permeated her whole body, covering her mouth and shouting: "Qingxia-Xiaoyan-"

"Save your energy, they're dead." The little boy said nonchalantly.

"Who are you? Why kill them? ”

Intuition told Chen Shuqing that an ordinary little boy could not have the ability to kill two adult women silently, this little boy must have been changed by a monster, and his ability is beyond imagination!

At this time, Wu Youxiang, who was busy in the wing, heard the sound and rushed out, and when he saw this, he immediately collapsed to the ground in fright: "What's going on......

The little boy glanced at Wu Youxiang, didn't bother to pay attention to it, and said to Chen Shuqing: "Don't you know who I am?" And no wonder...... Do you know why I want to be a child? You and the surnamed Pu fled all the way from Sichuan to Guangxi, which made it easy for me to find it, and I had to become like this, so as to save some food. ”

Chen Shuqing trembled and said, "I know who you are......"

The little boy smiled and said, "It's good to know, I don't like this look either." ”

In a word, the voice had become majestic, and the little boy's body had gradually grown and deformed, gradually turning into a monster full of muscles, green fangs, and horns on his head, this monster was more than ten feet tall, and if you looked closely, there was a string of skulls hanging around its neck!

"Dry! They are innocent! Chen Shuqing shouted.

"Human beings are just food, it doesn't matter if they are innocent or not." After he finished speaking, he had already opened his bloody mouth and swallowed the corpse of Qingxia on the ground into his stomach.

As the marquin was eating, a red imp crept up on its shoulder, which was inconspicuous compared to the sheer size of the marquid.

"Nightmare!"

This is exactly the Fu Wei that Chen Shuqing and the three of them defeated in Sichuan before, only to hear Fu Xiao laugh and say: "Giggles, nine-tailed fox, I just accompanied the Drought King here, and I didn't do anything bad." ”

Chen Shuqing suddenly understood everything, when the drought was in the north after the news, he rushed to Sichuan from the north to chase and kill Pu Zixuan, the two thought that it would be safe to leave Sichuan, but they didn't expect that as one of the demon kings, the drought fish would be so unrelenting to Pu Songling's descendants, and chased all the way to this hall of forgetfulness, causing the two women to die tragically!

After eating a full meal, he licked his lips and said, "Nine-tailed fox, why did that boy surnamed Pu disappear along with the breath of Liuquan Yagi?" I'm just here for him, I'm not interested in you little demon, and if you tell me his whereabouts, I won't embarrass you. ”

When Chen Shuqing heard this, she immediately thought about it, she was also a monster, and the drought naturally couldn't sense herself, but she chased Pu Zixuan and the purification power on the fragments of "Mixed Moon Jue" to Guangxi, and now Pu Zixuan is hidden in the Fairy Sword Hall, and the fragments of "Mixed Moon Jue" are temporarily sealed in his body together with the demonic energy, no wonder the drought can't detect anything, so he has to ask passers-by all the way to find the Hall of Forgotten Worries, after all, Chen Shuqing said on the street that day that he wanted to come here, including the passers-by who sold sugar gourds, and they heard it clearly.

Now that Qingxia and Xiaoyan are gone, people can't be resurrected after death, but at least, Pu Zixuan can be protected.

Thinking of this, Chen Shuqing lied and said: "Hmph, it's a pity, it's a pity, Pu Zixuan, more than ten days ago, I went to an ancient tomb in Zhaoyao Mountain to look for fairy grass to wish for Yu, and accidentally fell into the water galaxy. ”
