Chapter 5 Distinction (2)
"Miss Jiu'er, you wait for me!" Aoyama chased after him, and Jiu'er, who heard the shout, stopped at the door, held the herbs in his hand tightly, looked at him and asked, "Why did you regret it so quickly?"
Qingshan shook his head with a smile and said, "No, Miss Jiu'er, I know a little bit about medicine, so I can go with you to see your father." ”
"Then come with me. Jiu'er jumped up, and Qingshan, who was following behind, laughed a few times, thinking that this girl was too interesting.
Jiu'er's family deviated from the village, near the forest, the temperature would be much lower than in the village every night, and there were often strange noises, the village chief had to move their father and daughter, but Ye Neng insisted on living here, and so did Jiu'er.
Walking to the door of the house, Jiu'er didn't let Qingshan in, but took a chair for him to sit in the courtyard, she went in alone, Ye Neng, who was lying on the bed in the house, had a pale face, his eyes were slightly closed, and the strength of his body seemed to be drained, and he couldn't sit up.
"Dad, you see, the pharmacy owner gave me a bloodthirsty branch, this is not found anywhere except the Demon Realm, it is very precious, I will grind it into powder now, and then boil it into water for you to drink, you will definitely be fine." Facing his terminally ill father, Jiu'er still smiled sweetly, Ye Neng left a tear in the corner of his eye, he was very guilty at this time, he obviously planned to take care of his daughter, but now because of his appearance, he can only be taken care of by his daughter, and he has delayed her good age to get married. Ye Neng wanted to reach out and touch his daughter's head, but found that no matter how hard he tried, this hand just couldn't be lifted.
Jiu'er wiped away his father's tears with his hands, and then ran to the kitchen, Aoyama, who was waiting at the door, looked a little anxious, and walked back and forth at the door several times, Aoyama is a person who knows how to be polite, generally speaking, without the consent of the master, he is not allowed to enter the master's house, but he is really in a hurry, because he heard Jiu'er just say that the medicinal herb is a bloodthirsty branch.
"Forget it, no matter how much. Qingshan gritted his teeth, broke in directly, looked at Jiu'er in the kitchen and said: "That is not a bloodthirsty branch, the bloodthirsty branch is indeed a monster in the demon world, it sucks blood, it cannot be used as a medicinal herb, the one in your hand is a blood-coagulation branch, which is to replenish blood and qi." ”
"Oh. Jiu'er looked at the blood clotting branch in his hand and asked, "Anyway, it's all ground into powder and boiled in water to drink, right?"
"Well, yes. Qingshan turned his head to look at the room, Ye Neng who was lying on the bed stared at him with wide eyes, adding his iron blue face and shriveled face, the frightened Qingshan almost didn't shout, but after a closer look, his eyes were red, and he was panting, Qingshan understood why the owner of the pharmacy would say something like that.
"Jiu'er, can I take your father's pulse?"
In fact, Jiu'er herself knows in her heart that her father is no longer able to return to heaven, and can only rely on some tonic medicine to maintain it.
"Go ahead. Jiu'er didn't stop it, after all, Qingshan had no malicious intentions.
Qingshan walked over, looking at Ye Neng staring at him, his mouth trembled, as if he wanted to say something, but he no longer had the strength to speak, Qingshan gave him a pulse, and said: "Old man, don't worry, I am the eldest disciple of Wanxian Ju, I am decent, and I will not hurt you and your daughter." ”
Hearing the three words Wan Xianju, Ye Neng was hesitant to say something, but he didn't have the strength to speak now.
Ye Neng has been sick for a long time, Jiu'er has always wanted to go up the mountain to tell Yijiang and let him come down the mountain to accompany his father, but his father refused to say anything, for fear that he would delay his cultivation, afraid that he would be distracted, and it would be a long time, Jiu'er also felt that what his father said made sense, no matter what happened at home, he could not delay Yijiang's future.
Ye Neng's breath was disordered, and his pulse was extremely weak, Qingshan took out the silver needle on his body and pricked it on Ye Neng's finger, but he couldn't bleed.
His life is short, and he has no power to return to heaven.
These eight words surged in Qingshan's heart, but he couldn't say it, he could only smile softly and say to Ye Neng: "It's okay, you'll be fine." ”
This sentence was comparable to a panacea, which made Ye Neng feel calm.
When the blood clotting branch was boiled, Jiu'er took it over and fed it into his father's mouth little by little with a small spoon, Qingshan didn't tell Jiu'er the result, and Jiu'er didn't ask, he walked out and looked at the entrance of the forest, although he didn't go in, he could still feel the strange smell inside, and the coolness emanating from the entrance made him shudder.
"This is the place where the seals sank back then. "This time I went down the mountain, Qingshan mainly wanted to see this forest, but the head of the Yuanxu Dao told me that I could only be at the door, not enter.
Jiu'er walked to the side of Qingshan with an empty bowl and whispered, "Why are you looking at the entrance of the forest so intently?"
Qingshan came to his senses, looked at Jiu'er and said, "It's not suitable to live here for a long time, it's better to move away, maybe if you move away, your father's illness can get better." ”
Jiu'er "giggled", Qingshan was puzzled, why did she smile like this?
"My father drank the water made from this blood clotted branch, and he was much better. ”
"What?" Qingshan knew that this blood condensation branch was a fairy grass, but it could only replenish blood and qi, and it could not be brought back to life at all, he hurriedly ran in, but he really saw Ye Neng's face ruddy, and he sat up and drank the tea that Jiu'er had brewed, which made Qingshan stunned.
"It's... This... How is that possible?" Qingshan rubbed his eyes, but Ye Neng still sat on the bed and smiled kindly at him.
"Fairy grass is fairy grass, in order to marry my daughter, the big family in the neighboring village specially sent angelica and lingzhi to please me, and promised to wait for me to get better, in marrying my daughter, but angelica and lingzhi did not eat less, but not good at all, I didn't expect that just a red branch, can make me good so quickly. ”
Qingshan was also stunned, could it be that he didn't fully understand the effects of these immortal herbs?
He clasped his hands into fists, saluted Ye Neng, and said, "If I am offended, I ask my seniors to forgive me." ”
"Son, you haven't done anything wrong. Ye Neng got up, picked up Qingshan, who was in his luggage, and pointed to the guest seat at home and said, "Child, sit down, I look forward to the hard work that your disciples of Wanxianju are looking forward to." ”
"Ah, do you have something to do with our disciples of Wanxian Ju?" he hadn't heard Jiu'er talk about it all the way, he glanced at Jiu'er, and Jiu'er's expression was a little sad, and said, "You talk, I'll cook for you." ”
Why did Ye Neng look forward to the disciples of Wan Xianju? Jiu'er was naturally clear, so there was no need for her to listen.
"Kids. Ye Neng held Qingshan's hand, his eyes were a little tearful, and he looked at him expectantly and asked, "Is Ye Yijiang good?"
Jiu'er put down the frying spoon in his hand and waited for Aoyama's answer.
"Leaf... "Qingshan has been in Wanxianju for thirty years, and he has never heard of this name, he shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, we don't have this person in Wanxianju." ”
"Impossible! I saw with my own eyes that my son was taken away by the Daoist Master of the Source Void!, I just went to your Ten Thousand Immortal Residence!" Ye Neng's emotions were a little excited, after so many years, the son he had been thinking about in his heart was not in the Ten Thousand Immortal Residence?
Qingshan hurriedly stretched out his other hand to hold Ye Neng's hand, and said, "Don't worry, it may be that I have made a mistake, when I return to the mountain, I will go and inquire carefully." Although he said this, the entire Ten Thousand Immortal Residence, let alone people, even the grass and trees he knew clearly where it was, but he couldn't bear Ye Neng to be so excited, so he had to tell a lie.
Jiu'er, who was in the kitchen, suddenly said, "Could it be that he is dead?" I heard that every year the disciples of the Ten Thousand Immortal Residence go down the mountain to subdue the demons and monsters, so will my younger brother be killed after being able to defeat those monsters?"
"No, it won't. Qingshan smiled and comforted: "Our master will arrange for powerful disciples to go, if the cultivation is not enough, they will not let them take risks, for so many years, no disciple has died because of this, so please be relieved." ”
Qingshan felt that this place was not suitable for a long time, so he said, "The forest next to it is too gloomy to be a good place, you father and daughter should move away quickly and leave this place." ”
"Well, it won't be moved. "The horror of this forest, he had seen it with his own eyes ten years ago.
"My son will come home sooner or later, and if I move out, then he won't find a home, so I'm not going to move out. ”
Qingshan has no memory of his parents, his master said that he was abandoned by his parents to the bottom of the mountain, and in the twenty-five years of this Ten Thousand Immortals, his parents have never looked for him.
I thought that all parents in the world were ruthless, but I didn't expect that this Ye Neng gave him a new understanding of family affection.
Qingshan glanced at Jiu'er and asked, "This forest is so dangerous, something will happen sooner or later, don't you think about it for your daughter?"
Ye Neng's heart ached, and he sighed and said: "If my daughter hadn't been to take care of me, she would have married a long time ago, but the family she promised to marry had already married and had children, and there are no young people of her age who are single." After speaking, the pain in his chest was suddenly unbearable, and he lowered his body, covering his chest with his hands, and his expression looked particularly painful.
Aoyama was busy checking the pulse, and was surprised to find that there was no more!?
His face turned white all of a sudden, he had never seen such a person, obviously alive, but without a pulse?
Ye Neng seemed to be very aware of his body, and when the pain gradually disappeared, he smiled and said: "My daughter has stolen fairy grass for me to eat, and she doesn't know what some fairy grass is, in short, the dead horse is a live horse doctor, maybe those herbs have worked." ”
"What immortal grass can do this?" Wanxianju has a collection of tens of millions of volumes, from astronomy to geography, but in these collections, there is no introduction, what herbs have such an effect.
"It's in the forest, and my daughter always goes secretly, and she thinks I don't know. Ye Neng looked at his daughter who was busy in the kitchen and laughed, followed by a sigh.
Qingshan shuddered, the master kept telling that the forest was not allowed to enter, there were many evil things, and there was a possibility that there would be no return, but the girl in front of her had gone many times and collected unknown herbs.
"Is the forest scary, or is she scary?"
