Time goes back a little, Shiliu Street, the residence of the old drunkard.

After Yun Chu and the three of them left, the old drunkard took out a futon from his storage ring, found a tattered bamboo mat in the yard and threw it on the ground, spread the futon, and said, "Little girl, you just sleep in the house with this stupid boy, okay?"

Qin Ying nodded, "I'm fine, but where do you sleep, old man?"

"I haven't slept on this broken bed a few times, don't worry about it, take care of your brother with peace of mind! Since Yun Chu asked you to stay with me, don't run around for me, I can protect you more or less here, if you get out of the yard, then don't blame me for not caring about people!"

"I know, I'm not going to run around. ”

"Well, that's it, I'll go to sleep for a while, it's just past noon, I'm sleepy!Haah~~~~" The old drunkard yawned, suddenly scratched the top of his smooth head, turned his head and muttered, "Hey, where did my wine gourd go?"

"There it is. Qin Ying walked to the door and pointed precisely to a clump of weeds in the corner of the yard, "Old man, you should have thrown the wine gourd there just now." ”

"Oh oh! yes, yes, I threw it away just now, you little girl has a pretty good memory......" After the old drunkard finished speaking, he suddenly noticed that something was wrong, "Wait! Aren't you invisible?"

"But I can hear you!"

The old drunkard stared at Qin Ying's little face with some surprise, and the latter tilted his head and smiled slightly, as if he knew that he was looking at him.

"You girl is a little interesting, okay, okay, go take care of that silly boy!"

The old drunkard retrieved the gourd, poured two sips, and then lay down at the door and fell asleep.

——

In the evening, the old drunkard was woken up by a burst of fragrance, he opened his hazy sleepy eyes, it was already dusk, he turned his head to look, but saw Qin Ying was busy in front of the stove, and the pot was still steaming.

The old drunkard walked over and saw that Qin Ying was cooking porridge, he frowned, and asked with doubts: "Little girl, you really can't see it, right?"

Qin Ying smiled and said, "Daddy, their health is not good, I have been helping since I was a child, so it is no problem to simply cook porridge." ”

"Oh!" the old drunkard nodded, seeing the stove fire, he suddenly remembered something, "By the way, I have to make a tonic for that stupid boy, otherwise I can't get better so quickly!" The old drunkard muttered, turned around and walked to the old medicine cabinet, turned over and took out a medicine stove from the ring, quickly took out the required medicinal materials in five or six drawers and threw them in, and did not weigh them, after taking the medicinal materials, the old drunkard walked out of the house and found the flint on the stove, he was stunned, and suddenly asked: "Little girl, how did you find the flint?"

"The flint has a very special smell of gunpowder smoke and is easy to find. ”

"You have such a smart nose?"

"Hmm. ”

"You little girl is really a little powerful!" the old drunkard couldn't help but sigh, strong hearing, strong sense of smell, although many blind people have this characteristic, but this girl seems to be more powerful.

"Grandpa, can I ask you for one thing? Can you feed my brother porridge? He can't move now, and it's inconvenient for me to feed him. ”

"Uh, okay. The old drunkard reluctantly agreed, and his mind moved, and he said, "Little girl, since you can cook porridge, then just boil medicine for me, this is a tonic for your brother." ”

"Good. ”

The old drunkard was secretly refreshed in his heart, it took a lot of time to boil the medicine, and in comparison, feeding Qin Lan porridge was not so unacceptable.

The old drunkard put on a bowl of porridge and was about to bring it to Qin Lan, when suddenly, he saw Qin Ying holding the medicine stove, his little nose twitching slightly, sniffing the smell.

The old drunkard asked, "Little girl, is it possible that you still understand pharmacology?"

"My mother taught me that I could smell the scent of blood tonic grass and rainy night flowers, and I couldn't make out anything else. ”

The old drunkard asked in surprise, "You can tell the smell mixed together?"

"Hmm. ”

"You wait!" The old drunkard threw down the porridge and ran into the house, and not long after, he took another medicine stove and walked out, which was also filled with a lot of medicinal herbs, he sent the medicine stove to Qin Ying, and said, "You smell this, and then tell me, this furnace medicine is the same or different from the one in your hand!"

"I'll give it a try. Qin Ying took the medicine stove, sniffed it carefully, raised his head and said affirmatively: "Most of them are the same, but there is less of a sweet-smelling medicinal herb, and one more bitter and sour medicinal herb, it should be this." Qin Ying took out a dry black root-like medicinal herb from the medicine furnace.

"I'll go!, genius!" the old drunkard exclaimed.

——

After the old drunkard fed Qin Lan porridge, he walked over to Qin Ying who was boiling medicine and sat down, his expression was rarely a little serious.

"Little girl, I have something to ask you. ”

Qin Ying was a little strange, "You ask." ”

"I ask you...... Would you like to learn medicine from the old man?"

Qin Ying blinked, a little confused, "Studying medicine with you?"

"Yes, it's not that I'm boasting about myself, at least in this Ye Ming City, there is no one who can compare with my medical skills, even in the entire Tielin Country, there are only a few old guys who can be on an equal footing with me, you are very talented, I want you to inherit my mantle, how about it?" Speaking of his medical skills, the old drunkard suddenly looked proud, in terms of strength, he thought that he was only average, but in terms of medical skills, it was the proudest thing in his life, although he had almost no medical ethics to speak of.

"But why did you take me as an apprentice? I'm just a blind girl. ”

The old drunkard smiled: "It's a pity that you can't see with your eyes, but it's not in the way, there are many wonders in the world, and there are many drugs that can treat your eyes, although they are worth a lot of money, but as long as you worship the teacher, the old man, I will make some effort to help you find it." What I admire most is your sense of smell, and of course, your hearing is good, but for a healer, your sense of smell is the greatest treasure!"

"Being able to accurately distinguish drugs, this sense of smell is very helpful for medical skills, it can be described as a rare Puyu, now you are still young, and you have a little foundation, you will learn quickly, and you will have the opportunity to become a generation of famous doctors in the future! At that time, my reputation will also rise, haha! So, hurry up and apprentice! I don't have so many complicated etiquette, just be a screaming master!"

Qin Ying leaned over the old drunkard slightly, and politely refused: "Thank you for your kindness, but don't use it!"

"Okay, then we'll ...... tomorrow Wait!What are you talking about?" The old drunkard never thought that Qin Ying would refuse such a great good thing, and he was happy for a few seconds before he reacted.

"I refuse, thank you for your kindness!"

"Wait, for...... Why! Let me tell you, my medical skills in the Northern Underworld Tour are famous far and wide! You go and inquire, who has a little insight does not know the great name of my Tielin Monster Doctor Northern Underworld? In terms of strength, although I am not very strong, I also have the strength of a six-star martial spirit, and I am also a top master in Ye Mingcheng! Why do you refuse, you little girl?" the old drunkard asked excitedly, and even his identity was inadvertently revealed.

Qin Ying opened his mouth and spit out a sentence that made the old drunkard speechless, "Because you lied to my brother!"

The old drunkard was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he asked in a deep voice, "Are you...... Hear me?"

"Yes. ”

"But, in fact, I didn't cheat him! And even if he doesn't scrape together enough money, I'm ready to treat you...... Forehead...... This ...... this" The old drunkard could only quibble vaguely, after all, it was an indisputable fact that he deceived Qin Lan.

"If you hadn't lied to my brother, he would have already taken me to the Light Star Academy, and he wouldn't have suffered this disaster!" Qin Ying's words were heartbreaking, the old drunkard opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything to refute it, he knew very well that it was his own injustice that was in front of him, and he couldn't blame others.

"Grandpa, I still have to continue to boil medicine for my brother, it's not early, you are a star refiner, let's hurry up and go to star refining!"

"......" The old drunkard was silent, raised his head and poured a sip of wine, walked to the gate of the courtyard without saying a word, and lay down.

——

"Brother, can't you sleep?" After asking the old drunkard to feed Qin Lan the medicine, Qin Ying stayed by Qin Lan's side, and after nearly an hour, Qin Ying still felt that Qin Lan had not slept, so he asked.

"Yes!" Qin Lan smiled helplessly, "You also know that since I started Star Refining, I don't need to sleep at all, and now that I suddenly want to sleep at night, I really can't sleep!"

"Then I'll chat with you!"

"Hmm. By the way, what's wrong with the poison on your body? Did the old gentleman tell me how to get rid of the poison for you?"

Qin Ying replied quietly: "Don't worry, it's very simple to remove the poison, the old man who was outside just now has already removed the poison for me, and I am already all right." ”

"Great!" Qin Lan breathed a sigh of relief, at least he didn't have to worry about his sister's safety anymore. "Xiaoying, how did you spend the previous night?"

"It's just to make up some toys and supplies to sell the next day! ”

"Alas, I've suffered you, if you follow me in the future, my brother won't let you suffer anymore. ”

"Hmm. ”

Qin Lan and Qin Ying didn't have much to talk about, and after a while, the two talked about Yun Chu, "Speaking of which, Xiaoying, your intuition has always been very accurate, what kind of person do you think Brother Yun Chu is? I think he should be the young master of a big family! I easily took out a full 800,000 purple star coins to buy my ice orchid, and also paid for my injuries and your poison, I really don't know how to thank him!" Although I said that I would repay him with my life, my strength is not very strong, even if I can recover, I'm afraid he won't be able to look down on it!" Qin Lan sighed a little helplessly, although he had the heart to repay his kindness, he didn't have that strength.

Qin Ying carefully groped to hold his brother's hand, and said softly: "Don't worry, brother, Yunchu Gongzi is a very gentle person, he won't look down on his brother!"

"Yes, I feel the same, to be able to know someone like him is really my third life lucky!"

"It's just ......," Qin Ying stopped when he wanted to speak.

"Just what?"

"Yun Chu Gongzi gives me a very vicissitudes of life, as if he has experienced many, many things!"

Qin Lan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed dumbly, "You're wrong this time! Brother Yunchu should be one or two years younger than me! How can there be vicissitudes of life? It's almost the same if you say it's mature! Do you have an illusion when you listen to his voice is relatively calm?"

Qin Ying said faintly: "Maybe I made a mistake......
