Chapter 14: I Didn't See Anything
The night passed in a blink of an eye.
The next day, facing the rising sun slowly rising from the east, a dry cough came from the old man's room. "Well, cough cough" Lin Qing slowly opened his eyes, at this time he felt weak, and his body was as heavy as if it had been filled with lead.
"You're awake. The old man in the green shirt did not turn his head, still tinkering with his elixir on the side.
Look at the strange figure. Lin Qing was puzzled: "Who are you, where am I?"
The old man smiled and said, "I am your savior, this is the Shen family in Sunset City." β
"Sunset City?Shen Family?" Lin Qing was even more puzzled.
"You were seriously injured yesterday, and Xiao Wu brought you back. The old man explained.
Hearing the old man's words, Lin Qing understood a little, "The little dance in the old man's mouth should be Miss Shen, this is her home." "Was there a boy with a silver mask who came with us yesterday?"
"You mean Lin Xiao. He lives on the other side, and since you are too badly injured, you will stay with me for the time being, so that it will be easier to heal. The old man replied.
Lin Qing sighed, wanting to stand up, but felt that he had no strength in his body. Seeing this scene, the old man said: "Don't move, your injuries are not healed now, so you should lie there and don't move." β
The original milky white potion had become blue after Lin Qing's absorption overnight, and the potion was not as colorful as yesterday, looking at himself sitting in the wooden barrel full of the potion, Lin Qing said strangely: "Grandpa, what is this?" Lin Qing pointed to the blue potion.
"This is a potion for your wounds, it will help your body to repair a lot, you have to soak in it every day for the past few days, and you have to soak it for five hours a day. The old man raised his eyelids, walked over to Lin Qing, looked at the potion in the barrel and had returned to its original clear color, and said with satisfaction: "Well, the absorption is good, it seems that you have absorbed all these medicinal powers, if this continues, your injuries will heal in a few days." β
"Thank you, old man. Lin Qing thanked.
"You don't have to thank me, who made our little girl shout and ask me to save you, otherwise, I wouldn't be too lazy to save you. But the old man didn't appreciate it.
Hearing the old man's words, Lin Qing coughed helplessly.
"Alright, get up, the water in this bucket is no longer effective, I need to replace it with a new one. The old man pointed to the barrel.
Lin Qing struggled to stand up, although he had been in the brocade robe in the potion for so long, after a night of repair, Lin Qing could still feel the pain emanating from all over his body, like a bone falling apart, and Lin Qing snorted in pain.
After a while, the old man threw the many medicinal herbs into the wooden bucket full of water, but this time he put a few more herbs. Looking at the herbs that the old man had put into the bucket, Lin Qing said, "Continuation Spirit Grass?"
Although Lin Qing said it very lightly, the old man's keen ears still heard it, and he turned his head to look at Lin Qing: "Do you know?"
"Well, this is the Continuation Spirit Grass, I have read some books on collecting herbs and alchemy before, and I know a little about these, but I don't know any of the powdered liquid medicines you put before. Lin Qing replied.
"Do you know how to make alchemy?" the old man continued to ask.
"No, it won't. Lin Qing replied truthfully.
"Alright, let's lie down. The old man said after finishing the medicine.
Looking at the milky white bucket of potion, Lin Qing slowly took off the clothes he had just put on, sat in, as soon as he entered the water, Lin Qing felt a warmth all over his body, as the milky white color flowed into his body, he felt that warmth flowed to all parts of his body, limbs and bones, so uncomfortable, and the pain was also reduced a lot, this spirit grass has the effect of providing spiritual power, so the old man also put a few more spirit grasses.
Immediately, Lin Qing closed his eyes, put his hands together one by one on his legs, and cultivated, only to see that the milky white spiritual liquid that was originally slowly absorbed actually had a tendency to speed up under Lin Qing's urging. And under the operation of Lin Qing's spiritual power, the milky white medicinal power slowly passed through the meridians of his limbs and flowed to all parts of his body.
Seeing that Lin Qing had entered the cultivation state, the old man also ignored it and went to do other things. During this period, Lin Xiao came once, and after seeing that Lin Qing was safe and sound, he walked away, and Shen Qingwu also came once, and wanted to thank Lin Qing, but when he saw that he was cultivating, he went back again.
Yesterday, because Lin Qing was in a coma, the spiritual power in his body was unconsciously operating on its own after encountering this medicinal power, and now that he has woken up, of course, he absorbs it much faster than yesterday, only to see that the original milky white potion has become lighter and lighter with the passage of time, and six hours later, the original milky white and heavy potion has turned into a bucket of water at this time. Lin Qing slowly withdrew his palm, and exhaled a mouthful of turbid breath, the whole person suddenly looked energetic, and moved his muscles and bones, although there was still a slight pain, but the original painful body was no longer so painful.
Lin Qing slowly stood up, and before he could get dressed, he heard Shen Qingwu's shout outside: "Lin Qing, Lin Qing." β
The footsteps were already approaching, Lin Qing didn't have time to react at all, Shen Qingwu had already pushed the door in.
"Don't" When Shen Qingwu came in and saw Lin Qing who was full of **, Lin Qing said the second half of the sentence "Come in"
When he saw that embarrassing scene, Shen Qingwu was stunned for a moment, and then there was a scream of 'ah' and then turned around.
"Why don't you wear clothes? The girl said in shame.
"They all say don't let you in, don't come in, you have to come in. Lin Qing said.
"You, you, you, what do you mean to blame me?" the girl was speechless in shame.
"Don't blame me, don't you knock when you come in. Lin Qing blamed the girl.
"I didn't see anything. The girl was already flushed with shame at this time, and she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into, she might not even believe what she said, she stared at Lin Qing for a while.
"Alright, turn around. Lin Qing said.
"You don't wear clothes, and you turn me around. Shen Qingwu covered his eyes and said shyly.
"I'm all dressed, let's talk, what's the matter with me?" Lin Qing said to Shen Qingwu.
In fact, Lin Qing was also taken aback in his heart, "Fortunately, the old man is not here, there is no one here, otherwise it would be a shame." I thought to myself. And Shen Qingwu's thoughts were the same as Lin Qing's.
Slowly turning her head, after seeing that Lin Qing was indeed dressed, the girl said with a red face: "It's okay, just see if you're okay, by the way, thank you for saving me yesterday." β
Looking at Shen Qingwu's pretty face that was still flushed, Lin Qing also blushed, coughed dryly, and said, "Ah, I'm fine, I don't need to thank you for yesterday's incident."
At this time, both of them were very embarrassed, and they didn't know what to say, in order to break this embarrassing atmosphere, Lin Qing asked, "Is there anything else Miss Shen?"
"Ah, oh, no. Shen Qingwu, who was running away, reacted immediately.
At this moment, Lin Wei also came, and seeing Shen Qingwu there, Lin Wei asked, "Miss Shen is also here." Shen Qingwu blushed and replied. Lin Wei didn't pay attention to Shen Qingwu's expression, and immediately turned to Lin Qing and asked, "How are you feeling?"
Lin Xiao's arrival made Lin Qing and Shen Qingwu both happy in their hearts, just like the long-arid land encountered a moist spring rain, which resolved this embarrassing atmosphere.
"I'm fine. Lin Qing moved for a moment and pretended to be natural.
Seeing Lin Qing's strange expression, Lin Wei turned his head to look at Shen Qingwu again, and found that both of them had strange expressions, and they didn't know what was going on, so they couldn't help but wonder in their hearts. Seeing Lin Wei looking at her, Shen Qingwu felt more and more empty-hearted, she couldn't stand this embarrassing atmosphere. It just so happened that Lin Wei's arrival could give her an excuse to escape.
"Well, since you're here, let's talk, my dad called me something. Then he saw Shen Qingwu running away quickly as if he was panicking, and kept touching his hot face as he ran.
Lin Wei also felt strange in his heart, after Shen Qingwu left, Lin Wei asked Lin Qing, "What's the matter, why do I feel weird?"
"Nothing. Looking at Lin Xiao's serious expression, Lin Qing said perfunctorily.
Hearing Lin Qing's words, Lin Xiao didn't ask anymore, the two talked about some other things, and after a while, the old man in the green shirt also came back. Seeing Lin Wei on the side, the old man smiled and said, "Lin Wei, you're here." β
"Well, I'll see if he's better. Lin Wei explained.
Hearing Lin Wei's words, the old man pretended to be angry and said, "Why? Don't believe in the old man's medical skills?"
Hearing the old man's words, Lin Wei hurriedly explained: "No, no, I didn't mean that, I meant to see how he recovered?"
"I tell you, as long as it's me who shows it, don't worry, it will definitely be cured. The old man said proudly, "Okay, let's talk, I'll go and sort out the herbs I just got back." The old man smiled and walked towards the pharmacy in the house.
As if remembering something, Lin Wei said, "Oh, by the way, I want to tell you something. β
"What's the matter, you say. Lin Qing asked.
"I feel like I'm about to break through in the past few days, I'm going to retreat and cultivate tomorrow, and there are two days before the auction, maybe I can't go with you. β
"I thought it was something, it's okay, I can do it myself, you can go to retreat with peace of mind. Lin Qing said casually.
"Miss Shen said that she was going to the auction too, as if she was buying that Tianxuan purple bamboo flower, or you should go together. Lin Wei said.
Hearing Miss Shen's three words, Lin Qing was a spirit, and remembered the scene just now, so he hurriedly said: "Forget it, forget it, I can really do it myself, you don't care." β
"Well, anyway, be careful yourself. Lin Wei admonished.
"Well, it's okay, I'll be careful. β
"Then I'm leaving. Lin Wei said.
"Well, let's go. β
Shen Qingwu, who returned to the room at this time, stomped his feet in shame, and all in his mind was the scene of Lin Qing's ** body just now. "When did I get so bad, why do I think about it all the time. The girl shook her head vigorously, not thinking about the scene just now.
But that scene seemed to linger in my mind. "This dead Lin Qing, who doesn't wear clothes in broad daylight, is so ashamed to hurt himself. The girl scolded.
Not only was Shen Qingwu still thinking about the scene just now, Lin Qing was also thinking about that scene, although he was a boy, he had never experienced this kind of thing, Lin Qing couldn't help blushing, shaking his head, Lin Qing shook off these thoughts and walked towards the pharmacy.
"Grandpa, I want to ask one thing. Lin Qing said.
"What's the matter?" said the old man.
"Well, I'd like to ask if I'm okay with this injury. Although he was already able to walk, Lin Qing still felt a little chest tightness and shortness of breath, and his whole body was weak.
"What? is there something wrong with you?" Hearing Lin Qing's words, the old man asked.
"It's nothing, isn't there an auction in the Treasure Sect tomorrow? I want to go and see and buy something I need. Lin Qing explained.
"Well, you can go, Xiao Wu will go the day after tomorrow, let's go together. The old man replied.
When he heard these two words, a strange expression appeared on Lin Qing's face, and looking at the strange look on Lin Qing's face, the old man was puzzled: "What's wrong?"
"Ah, it's okay, it's okay. Lin Qing hurriedly explained.
"What are you going to buy at the auction?" asked the old man.
"I heard that they have Jiuyang Fruit this time, and I want to buy it. Lin Qing said.
"What are you buying it for?" said the old man, curiously.
"I happened to practice a kind of exercise, and I needed it when I cultivated, and it helped me a lot in my cultivation. Lin Qing explained.
"Positive exercises?" guessed the old man.
Lin Qing replied, but then he only heard the old man say, "It's really a tyrannical thing." β
"Hmm, what did you say, old man?" Lin Qing didn't understand what the old man said, so he asked.
"Do you know that if you take this Nine Yang Fruit directly, although you can also absorb his spiritual power, then it will greatly reduce its value. The old man explained.
"Then how should it be used?" Lin Qing was a little puzzled.
"Well, you can buy it and give it to me, and make sure it works 100 percent. The old man suggested.
Hearing the old man's words, Lin Qing was overjoyed, after these two days of getting along, Lin Qing knew that this old man was extremely powerful, and his ability was not small, this old man actually said to help himself, so that the Jiuyang fruit could play a hundred percent effect in his hands, how could Lin Qing be unhappy in his heart, you know, if ordinary herbs are taken directly, it is difficult to exert all their effects, but if they are handed over to the pharmacist, they will refine the medicinal materials into pills, in this way, they will make the best use of everything, and all the energy it can extract will be concentrated together, and no trace will be wastedγ
"Then thank you, old man. Lin Qing thanked.
