Chapter 145: Probing
The next day, when Qiao Zhi appeared in the back hall of the ancestral hall of the forbidden land with Jiuyou, the little old lady had already packed up and waited for a long time. There was nothing but an old lady and a set of low tablecloth mats.
Jiuyou looked at the white expanse around her suspiciously, as if she had entered a separate space, and suddenly felt strange, she kept looking left and right.
"Come here, sit down" The little old lady sat aside with a calm face, and had already built the empty tea for the two of them.
Jiuyou saw that there was tea again, and happily followed behind Qiao Zhi and sat down with him.
"Let's drink" The little old lady saw Jiuyou's cute appearance of looking at the empty tea in front of her, constantly swallowing saliva, her eyes darkened, and she said calmly.
Jiuyou happily picked it up, first taking a small sip, hoping to see those magical pictures and the gentle woman again. But apart from being physically and mentally refreshed, there was no reaction.
She didn't give up, she just took a big sip, and gradually her eyes seemed to be unveiled, and in a trance, she saw a timid and beautiful little girl, she was afraid to hide behind the door curtain.
And she turned into a child, happily looking for people from room to room, and finally caught her directly in the room at the very edge, she smiled and danced to her and said, "Sister Sakura, I caught you again, why are you hiding again, Uncle Zhongyi is fun to lead the team to hunt, and he is running on the ground and swimming in the water in the sky, but it is amazing." Let's go and see."
"No, no, no" The little girl's face turned pale with fright, and she clung to the door and refused to let go, refusing to go out of anything.
"Sister Sakura, my mother said that you fainted blood, Uncle Zhongyi also said that you were as timid as a mouse, and Uncle Xiao even said that you were afraid of killing, you wouldn't be as they said, you wouldn't even dare to look at it, right?" Jiuyou asked suspiciously.
"I ......" was said to be the center, and the little girl lowered her head, holding back a little face, and her aggrieved eyes were teary.
"Sister Sakura, don't be afraid, if they dare to hurt you, I'll eat them all for you" Jiuyou clenched his fists and said fiercely.
The little girl was amused by Jiuyou's cute appearance and laughed.
"Sister Sakura, I'm hungry, I want to drink Baihua soup, roast spirit beast eggs, and eat Qianshan Snow Lotus" Jiuyou listened to the gurgling sound of his stomach and touched his empty stomach and said aggrievedly.
The little girl was directly amused by Jiuyou's aggrieved appearance, she came over and carefully took Jiuyou's little hand and walked towards her mother's kitchen. Fighting along the way, as soon as someone passed by, she was like a frightened bird, and quickly hid with Jiuyou.
Jiuyou smiled and said, "Sister Sakura, it's fun, are we hiding from them?" ”
"Shh!!h The little girl stretched out her middle finger, put it to her mouth, and booed her, Jiuyou thought that this was a new way to play, and also followed her example, stretched out her right index finger, put it to her mouth, and booed quietly.
Hiding and hiding along the way, the two of them finally walked to the kitchen, and the little girl rummaged carefully, but found nothing to eat. There are only a few ingredients that have not yet been made.
"My mother said that overnight meals are not good for your health, and it is not good for food, and it will lose the original taste of the food itself, so she never does more" Jiuyou looked at Sister Sakura's doubts and explained directly.
The little girl had a bitter face and looked at Jiuyou staring at her directly. In the end, she had to learn from her mother's cooking and get busy.
Jiuyou saw her follow the example of her mother, and kept waving her hand at the firewood, waving it dozens of times, but the firewood was not ignited, and she was so anxious that she was about to cry.
Jiuyou was puzzled, could it be because the firewood was not lit, so Sister Sakura was in a hurry to cry? Jiuyou approached directly and blew on the firewood, and the firewood instantly burned fiercely, and almost burned the little girl's forehead.
Jiuyou waved his hand directly at the firewood in fright, and wanted to extinguish it, but the firewood burned more and more.
The little girl was even more frightened, and after realizing it, she threw the firewood directly on the ground and kept stepping on the firewood with her feet. Jiuyou also learned from the appearance of the little girl, and kept stepping on the burning firewood.
Finally, the two of them finally put out the firewood and didn't burn the kitchen, which is really lucky, but both of them are very embarrassed.
Jiuyou cried and lowered his head, and whispered aggrievedly, "Sister Sakura, I'm sorry, I was wrong."
"It's okay, I'm too stupid, I can't learn the most basic ignition technique" The little girl lowered her head, her eyes were red, and she held back her tears, which was more sad than Jiuyou. She can't even compare to a child, she's so stupid.
"Sister Sakura, don't cry, I won't eat it" Jiuyou thought that he was too greedy, which made Sister Sakura so embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, I can't do anything well, I'm a mortal bloodline, born with no talent, and very stupid, the most basic magic, others can learn it, but I can't learn it, my mother's people used to secretly laugh at my mother behind my back, saying that she was blind and accepted me as a useless mortal as a daughter" The little girl cried directly aggrieved, and kept wiping her tears sadly.
"Sister Sakura-chan doesn't cry, I'll teach you" Jiuyu followed her mother's usual way of comforting her, and gently patted her on the back.
"I'm stupid," the little girl whispered, raising her teary eyes and blushing.
"Wrap it around me," Jiuyou patted his chest and swore an oath.
The little girl burst into tears and laughed again.
"But I can only make a fire, not extinguish it," Jiuyou said shyly.
Finally, the two of them each carried a large basket of firewood and walked to the river behind the valley.
Jiuyou has been teaching the little girl how to make a fire, and at one o'clock, the little girl threw the firewood into the river, and the two of them went from day to night, until all the firewood they brought was used up, and the firewood they picked up nearby was also used up, and the little girl did not learn the art of igniting fire.
The little girl hung her head and was very sad.
"Don't cry, don't cry, bad people will laugh, don't cry, don't cry, your face will become ugly, don't cry, don't cry, I invite you to eat candy" Jiuyou learned from her mother to comfort her, comforted the little girl, and gave the little girl the only last candy on her body.
The little girl was moved with tears in her eyes, and she said firmly to Jiuyou, "Sister Xiaoyou, don't worry, I will definitely study seriously, if I can't learn in one day, I will be ten days, and if I can't learn in ten days, I will be in a hundred days, and in the future, I will protect you."
"Okay, okay," Jiuyou smiled and clapped his hands.
The picture dissipated, and the nine shades were sober. She stared at the empty teacup in her hand.
It seems that most of the day has passed in the dream, but in the eyes of Qiao Zhi and the little old lady, it is fleeting.
"Xiao You, come, stretch out your hand, I'll check your pulse," the little old lady said with a calm face.
Oh, okay, Jiuyou directly stretched out his hand.
The little old lady said with a heavy face, "If there is anything uncomfortable for a while, don't resist, you know?" ”
Jiuyou is puzzled, will it be uncomfortable to take the pulse? But for the little old lady's trust, she nodded stunned.
The little old lady pressed her hand on the Nine Shadows Pulse, slowly ran the exercises, and the spiritual power directly entered the Nine Shadows body, and began to walk along her Qi Sutra Eight Veins and Blood Vessels.
At first, Jiuyou only felt that the spiritual power was cold everywhere, but when she reached the position of her heart, she suddenly felt a burning pain attacking, and then slowly she felt unbearable and very uncomfortable. Her forehead began to sweat, and her whole body was like being in a sauna, and she had difficulty breathing.
Qiao Zhi next to him directly stretched out his hand and ran exercises behind his back to dissipate heat for her.
When the little old lady's spiritual power entered the heart of the Nine Shadows, she suddenly felt that her divine blood soul suddenly opened her eyes, staring coldly at the spiritual power that suddenly broke into it, it did not belong to the spiritual power of the Nine Shadows, she instinctively began to resist, and began to drive away the little old lady's spiritual power, and the two spiritual powers fought directly in the Nine Shadows.
Jiuyou felt that she was between ice and fire, constantly tossing back and forth, she wrinkled a pair of curved eyebrows, and endured it all the time.
After an hour of incense, all the broken hair on Jiuyou's forehead was wet and stuck to her skin, and her face slowly turned from flushed to pale.
Qiao Zhi frowned, he didn't dare to increase the input of spiritual power, he was afraid that if he lost too much, he would destroy the hot and cold balance in Jiuyou's body and make her hurt, he gestured to Grandma Taizu with his eyes, how is it, why is it not okay?
At last the little old lady took the work and shook her head at him.
Qiao Zhi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Either way, no outcome is the best.
Qiao Zhi directly took out the spiritual liquid and handed it to Jiuyou, wanting her to drink it and replenish her strength.
Jiuyou's hands were numb, she couldn't move, she was so hungry and thirsty that she directly leaned over and bit the mouth of the bottle, Qiao Zhi didn't expect her to come out like this suddenly, and she was stunned for a moment, for the sake of her discomfort now, she still didn't let go directly as usual, but carefully fed her to drink.
Jiuyou couldn't wait, and directly drank all the bottle of spiritual liquid in Qiao Zhi's hand in one gulp.
"Xiao You, the old woman heard your Aunt Lan say that you want to read, right?" The little old lady asked with a heavy face.
Jiuyou nodded stunned, she found that the air pressure around her seemed to be a little sluggish, and she didn't understand why the originally amiable grandmother looked inexplicably serious at this time.
"Very good, starting tomorrow, you will go to the Library Pavilion every day to read books, if you don't understand, ask the old man Qiao Cheng, the manager of the Library Pavilion, he is the most knowledgeable old man in our Qiao Tian Clan, within three years, you must be familiar with all the books in the Library Pavilion, do you know?" The little old lady admonished solemnly.
Jiuyou nodded stunnedly.
Qiao Zhi frowned, was Grandma Taizu suddenly too strict with her? You must know that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and you can't solve the near fire in the far water, so it's not good to be self-defeating.
"She's still a child, are you being too her? Why don't you take your time? Qiao Zhi directly whispered into the ears of the little old lady.
"Hey, if she is an ordinary girl, the old woman will let her be free and let her live unrestrained, but she is not, her fate is destined to be uneven in the world, in this case, learn more skills, for her, it is a blessing or a curse, maybe in the future, more tricks around, her life will be wider" The little old lady is also a secret voice, return carefully.
Qiao Zhi thought of the consequences of the discovery of the demon race, the scene of the whole world being the enemy, it was also a heavy abnormality, and it seemed that he had to work harder to cultivate.
Jiuyou listened to the secret voice of the two, lowered her head and was silent, she seemed to be very stupid, and she had to rely on the help and protection of others.
"Go back, take a good rest today, from tomorrow, you won't have time to rest, and finally experience the rare freedom" The little old lady sighed.
In the end, Qiao Zhi took out the bamboo flute again and left directly with Jiuyou.
(Dear friends, the people around the two of them have their own places to go, and the sweet days of getting along day and night are finally about to begin, are you looking forward to it?) )
