Chapter Seventy-Seven: Footsteps Outside the Window

Sheng Zhiyao looked at Hongxue's expression and sighed helplessly: "Okay, for your sake, then I'll give you a few more!" ”

"Thank you, host!" Hongxue shouted happily.

Sheng Zhiyao fed Hongxue medicine again, this time the effect was obviously much better than just now, after taking thirteen pills in a row, Hongxue felt that her whole body became relaxed, and the whole person had a feeling of fluttering, as if she was in the clouds.

Hongxue was full of emotion in her heart, the master was really amazing, he was able to make so many pills, this was simply a mobile treasure house, how could the master be so strong?

"Master, Hongxue really admires you too much, Hongxue swears that she will follow you from now on and be loyal to you!" Hongxue assured Sheng Zhiyao with a serious face.

"So you weren't loyal to me before?" Sheng Zhiyao said with a smile, but there was a cunning light in his eyes.

Hearing Sheng Zhiyao's words, Hongxue immediately reacted that she had been calculated by her master again, and she was called a regret in her heart, she had known that she wouldn't speak, but now it's good, and she was caught by her master again.

Hongxue had no choice but to bow her head in resignation: "Master, Hongxue is wrong, and I will never dare to do it again in the future." ”

"Haha, okay, I'll tease you!" Sheng Zhiyao couldn't help but laugh out loud when she looked at Hongxue admitting defeat.

Hongxue suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Master, why don't we take this pill out and sell it? Sure to make a lot of money. Hongxue stared at Sheng Zhiyao with a pair of big watery eyes, and asked expectantly.

"Nope." Sheng Zhiyao refused without hesitation.

"Can't do it? Why not? This pill is a good thing, and you can definitely make a lot of money by selling it. Hongxue asked a little eagerly.

"Now is not the time, these pills are recorded in this ancient book, if you rashly take out the pills and sell them, then it is easy to cause trouble that should not be provoked." Sheng Zhiyao shook his head and vetoed Hongxue's proposal.

"In this way, master, since it is inconvenient to take it out now, then we can keep it and study it slowly!" Hongxue looked at Sheng Zhiyao with a wistful expression.

Sheng Zhiyao looked at Hongxue's appearance, couldn't help laughing, and shook his head.

"Okay, don't look at me with that expression, if you want to eat it, I'll make a little more for you, but you must help me take good care of this ancient book, this ancient book is much more valuable than pills, you must protect it!" Sheng Zhiyao handed over the ancient book to Hongxue and admonished.

Hongxue took the ancient book and nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, master, I will not let any bad people snatch it, I promise!" ”

Hongxue's words warmed Sheng Zhiyao's heart.

She didn't speak, she reached out and rubbed Hongxue's hair, and the corners of her mouth outlined a bright smile, making Hongxue feel warm and sweet.

"I also need to prepare some pills for Yuchen Palace as a reward, so you go and rest first." Sheng Zhiyao looked at Hongxue and said softly.

Hongxue nodded, turned around and left, and when she left, Hongxue reluctantly glanced at the pills on the table.

After Hongxue left, Sheng Zhiyao began to prepare for re-medication, and she also deducted a little bit from the finished pills and put them in the instrument for testing to see if there would be any side effects of these mixed medicines.

This time, it only took her a while to complete the production of the finished pills, and looking at the bottles of pills on the table, Sheng Zhiyao couldn't help but show a smile of satisfaction.

She picked up one of the porcelain bottles and opened it and smelled it, there was a faint fragrance inside, and each pill was crystal clear and looked very good.

Sheng Zhiyao closed the lid, put the pill aside, and began to pack up his things.

At this time, the instrument also came to the result, these pills did not have any side effects, and they also carried a certain therapeutic and consolidating effect, which had a good auxiliary effect on the body.

She was relieved to see the result, so she was relieved.

After cleaning up, Sheng Zhiyao went back to the upstairs room to wash, and she lay on the bed and turned over to sleep.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes suddenly, staring out the window nervously, she seemed to hear a slight footstep from outside, although the footsteps were very soft, but they were still caught by Sheng Zhiyao.

She sat up quickly and listened carefully, but it was still quiet outside, and she thought she had misheard.

She lay back on the bed, closed her eyes, and carefully pricked up her ears to listen to the sound outside the window.

In this way, it was not until it was getting late that Sheng Zhiyao fell asleep in a daze.

The next day, Sheng Zhiyao got up early in the morning, because she didn't sleep well last night, her dark circles came out, and Hongxue was a little worried: "Master, your dark circles are very heavy, didn't you sleep well last night?" ”

"Huh? Is it really fake, is it so serious? Sheng Zhiyao touched the bags under her eyes and found that they were really a little swollen.

"Yes, so master, you have to pay attention to rest in the future, don't stay up too long, it's not good for your eyes." Hongxue said solemnly to Sheng Zhiyao.

"Oh, I see, you're starting to look a little like my grandfather." Sheng Zhiyao waved her hand perfunctorily, but her eyes still fell on the mirror involuntarily, and she found that her dark circles were indeed obvious, but when she thought of the footsteps last night, she couldn't help but think nonsense, and she always felt that there were people outside.

"Am I being too sensitive?" Sheng Zhiyao muttered to himself suspiciously.

At this time, Hongxue saw Sheng Zhiyao's depressed appearance and couldn't help but ask strangely, "Master, what's wrong with you?" Do you have something bothering you? ”

"Hongxue, did you hear footsteps outside last night?" Sheng Zhiyao thought about it and asked.

Hongxue listened and couldn't help but shake her head: "I slept very soundly, and I didn't hear any sound at all." ”

Hearing Hongxue's answer, Sheng Zhiyao couldn't help frowning.

I heard it wrong, but it was a real feeling.

While Sheng Zhiyao was thinking about it, there was a knock on the door outside the small villa, and after Sheng Zhiyao heard it, his face couldn't help but be shocked, could it be that someone really came in last night?

Before she could speak, a familiar voice came from outside the door: "Sister, are you awake?" ”

Sheng Zhiyao let down her guard as soon as she heard the voice, this voice was none other than her third brother Sheng Hangu.

She hurriedly returned to the room in the Hou Mansion and sat on the bed, pretending to have just woken up: "Third brother, do you have something to do with me?" ”

"Oh, nothing special, just wanted to say hello to your sister." Sheng Hangu replied to Sheng Zhiyao with a grin.

"Third brother, what's the matter with you? Let's talk about it. ”

"Oh, actually, it's not a big deal, just when will your store open? Do I need to hire a shopkeeper? Sheng Hangu asked tentatively.

Sheng Zhiyao got up and opened the door suddenly, glaring at Sheng Hangu with an unkind face: "Can't you come later?" I have to come at this time, I'm still sleeping, and if you wake me up again, I'll go to my father and mother to complain. As he spoke, Sheng Zhiyao returned to the room and slammed the door shut.

Sheng Hangu was still wondering, what did this little girl's family say would turn their faces, and Sheng Hanmo walked over.
