Chapter 269: Talking about the decoction

If Xia Xiao wants to take advantage of Ah Candle, just drink the warm medicine into his mouth and feed her mouth-to-mouth. But Xia Xiao didn't have that idea, so he took a spoon and fed her little by little. Every time Ah Candle couldn't drink, Xia Xiao lit the acupuncture points on her body, which was the method that Shu Shuang taught him, but when Ah Candle woke up, his throat might hurt. But compared to that kind of thing, it's still a small life that matters.

After Ah Candle finished drinking, there was no reaction, but Xia Xiao put down the bowl and felt hot all over.

Sitting cross-legged, sealing, no matter what medicine he is, he can use his vitality to speed up the speed of use. Xia Xiao felt that he was taking a sauna and felt that it was terribly hot, but his body was sweating and cold sweat at the same time, which made the room a lot colder. But after a quarter of an hour, Ah Candle also began to feel cold, but she kicked off the quilt and felt that it was hot.

An hour later, Xia Xiao woke up. He looked at his hands, sensed the changes in himself, and felt that this medicine was really useful, and it perfectly drove away the cold. It seems that as the old man said, there is no problem with his medicine, but there is a problem, but those cultivators who take their own medicine, they are too weak to bear the poison in the Dragon Palace and die early.

This is all thanks to the man named Pippi, although Xia Xiao didn't know, but these cultivators actually died at his hands. If it weren't for his secret manipulation and poisoning, so many people would not have died at all.

Xia Xiao looked at Ah Candle, she was still expelling the cold, and her clothes were soaked like herself. Extremely thin pajamas stick to the skin and outline the perfect figure. Xia Xiao took off his wet clothes, but changed his clothes again, closed the door and went out to eat. The idea of non-division only exists in an instant, belongs to ** and nature, but does nothing, it is rational.

In the hall on the first floor of the inn, Xia Xiao ate ten steamed buns and a pot of vegetables in a row, and then took the old bridesmaid back to the room and troubled her to change Ah Candle's clothes.

This toss is another half a day. Xia Xiao sat on a small bench and continued to decoct the medicine. He felt that his condition was gradually recovering, and it was estimated that in two days, he would be able to return to his peak and get rid of this tiredness.

Three days later

There was a touch of deep blue in the brown-black pupils, like some kind of terrifying cold light, and also like the location of the ancient Dragon Palace. Behind the extremely high palace, there are many urban houses. They stood quietly at the bottom of the sea, making Xia Xiao recall that it was all weird, like wisps of dead souls drilling into his eyes, making him forget that the medicine fried in front of him was boiling, and even lifted the ceramic lid.

"Hey, you're going to boil the water dry?"

The middle-aged fat woman was the proprietress of the inn, with a sideways face and a fierce look, I heard that she scared away the man who was looking for pearls that night. Xia Xiao suspected that she had taken off her shirt and was full of rich hair, except for her reproductive organs, she was probably no different from a man. But out of respect, Xia Xiao hurriedly apologized. She has helped herself a lot during this time, and every time she changes Ah Candle's clothes, she has to bother her.

"Sorry, distracted. ”

The woman sat next to Xia Xiao and pressed the small bench to a creak, but her eyes were full of appreciation, and she teased with a smile on her face.

"At a young age, he is a good man's material, and he boils medicine for that girl every day, and I don't see you complaining. ”

Xia Xiao took the medicine off the stove and let it settle slowly. This process is relatively long, and Xia Xiao has always chatted with the proprietress to pass the time. Although his time is precious, he can also look at the sky and meditate at this time, but she is sitting beside her, and Xia Xiao will naturally not avoid it.

"It should. ”

The simple three words made the appreciation in the fat woman's eyes gradually fade, and she said angrily:

"There is nothing in this world that should be, there are more than one or two people without conscience, but if you think that it is not your business, it really has nothing to do with you. ”

"Does the lady think I'm hypocritical?"

"I don't know!"

The fat woman lifted Erlang's legs, nonchalantly picked up the boogers, and rubbed them together.

"Although you are my tenant, I will rent a house for you to sell food, but I don't know what kind of person you are, but boy, don't take things as if they should or shouldn't, otherwise you will find that many things shouldn't be. If you were on the street and you saw a pair of beggars caught stealing something, and then they beat someone with a stick, and then they were knocked to the ground, would you care?"

The fat woman looked at Xia Xiao, saw him shake his head, and asked:

"Why?"

"It has nothing to do with me. ”

The fat woman snorted, as if denying Xia Xiao's words, and asked:

"Aren't beggars pitied?"

"Pathetic. ”

"Then why don't you care if you are beaten?"

"If I am caught stealing something, and I still insist on beating someone, I help it, doesn't it show that I approve of this kind of behavior?"

Xia Xiao has his own opinions, the proprietress never asks him where he comes from or where he goes, just asks some such questions, and he answers them one by one.

"If a pair of real beggars are begging in the streets, I will help, and when everyone is in trouble, when I am at my worst, I will live on the streets. In fact, sleeping in a haunted house in a mass grave is not much different from wandering on the street, but there are some things that should not be done since they are not right. Otherwise, if you do it, you will be caught and beaten, it will all be retribution, this is cause and effect. ”

"And what if they die because of this?"

"This question is like a student cheating on an exam in the academy and only to be caught by the instructor. Whether the instructor is out of order or in accordance with the principle of fairness and justice, he should be allowed to go out, and the exam will be invalidated and dealt with with zero points. The instructor did not beat and scold the student, or even criticize him immediately, but in the end, the student jumped off the building, and everyone blamed the teacher. Now, that student is the beggar, just asking for sympathy. ”

The fat woman nodded, her eyes flashing with appreciation. As an elder, she always likes to test her juniors, as if she wants to see how talented this person is, and she is the same. The only advantage of being a proprietress is that you can see all kinds of people, and their stories are more exciting than thousands of books.

"I didn't expect you to be so cold and talk so much about reasoning. ”

"It's like the proprietress doesn't care about the affairs of the city, but someone keeps knocking on the door of the inn in the middle of the night, and even if she falls asleep, she will turn it over and look at it. If it's a suspicious person, you'll be drunk away immediately. ”

The fat woman smiled innocently, and the events of that night made her famous in the neighborhood. But she has always had this temperament, she is not the city lord, so she can't manage too much, but the affairs of her own inn must be managed.

"I decoct medicine, you manage the inn, you are responsible for your own internal affairs, isn't this what you should?"

As soon as Xia Xiao said this, the fat woman nodded happily.

"It's a responsibility, that's right. ”

Xia Xiao lifted the ceramic lid, and there were still medicinal residues in it that kept undulating, so he had to wait for a while. But it was such a small lifting action that made the extremely strong medicinal fragrance permeate everywhere. Xia Xiao suspected that this medicine could be used directly to boil chicken soup, but in order to avoid ruining the heavens, he never tried it.

"Who are you, that girl?"

It was the first time for the proprietress to be so curious, she didn't expect Xia Xiao to answer seriously, after all, he said that his name was Fang Huan, and it was very likely to be fake. But Xia Xiao scratched his head and replied in a more formal tone:

"Brother and sister. ”

"I'm afraid it's not ambiguous?"

"I'm her senior brother, and she's my junior. ”

The proprietress sighed and said that Xia Xiao was a good match for her. But in exchange for a wry smile from Xia Xiao, this kind of thing sounded the most embarrassing.

"How can the proprietress see that we are worthy?"

"Talented women and women are also of the same age, aren't they worthy?"

Xia Xiao shook his head, he didn't care what kind of personality he had similar, he could only play, and different things could complement each other. There are exceptions to everything, and he is the exception. He felt that he was the best match for Shu Shuang, and the beautiful woman held an umbrella under the rainstorm and walked on the turbulent streets, like a picture scroll, wouldn't it be beautiful? If there was someone chattering in his ears all the time, Xia Xiao would probably be annoyed to death.

After chatting a few more words, when the medicine was warm and precipitated, Xia Xiao poured out a bowl and prepared to serve it upstairs.

"Boss, I'll have to trouble you later. ”

"I'll go up with you, it's all right now. ”

As soon as the fat woman stepped on the steps, there was a creaking sound of wooden planks, and she stood on the steps and watched Xia Xiao open the door and walk in. Ah Candle's face was terrifying a few days ago, but now it has returned to ruddy.

"Drink the medicine. ”

Every time before feeding the medicine, Xia Xiao would say a word first, and he felt that Ah Candle could hear it. He used three meals of medicine to adjust his state to the best, Xia Xiao drank the medicine for three whole days, and it was time to wake up.

The cold air was drifting, the hot sweat was flowing, Ah Candle's eyelids trembled slightly, and when he finally opened it, it was Xia Xiao's bearded face. Seeing that Xia Xiao was so unkempt and so attentive in feeding himself medicine, the corners of Ah Candle's mouth rose slightly. When she woke up, Xia Xiao should have been happy, but seeing her like this, she always felt that she was in a catastrophe. He's been paying attention, hoping he's thinking about it himself.

Putting down the bowl, Xia Xiao took the towel, wiped Ah Candle's sweat, and helped him up.

"Isn't there anything unwell?"
