Chapter Seventy-Three: What Did He Do?
Lu Lingxi was so anxious that tears were about to fall.
"Are you touching something in someone's pharmacy? Say! Lu Mu glanced around the pharmacy and asked her angrily.
"I didn't...... I really didn't ......," Lu Lingxi eagerly argued.
"You don't make people worry, your father is right, I shouldn't have brought you here." When Lu's mother saw her talking back, she suddenly became even more annoyed and scolded even more fiercely.
Lu Lingxi pursed his mouth aggrievedly, "I didn't say I was coming, since I came, I was going to leave it behind, so it's better not to bring me, just bring my sister......
Lu Linglong jumped in, still holding a sugar gourd in his hand, "Mother, look!" This is what Uncle Jiang just gave me. ”
Noticing that the atmosphere in the pharmacy was not right, Lu Linglong glanced at Lu Lingxi, blinked, and rolled out two crystals, "Did I make my sister unhappy?" ”
"It's none of your business, it's your sister messing around here." Mother Lu hurriedly picked up Lu Linglong in distress and gently wiped the tears from her cheeks.
Lu Lingxi was still arguing, but seeing this scene, he could only bow his head weakly.
Since she was a child, she knew that as long as Lu Linglong cried, no matter what she said or did, it was useless.
Daddy's heart will only hang on Lu Linglong's body, she is not even as good as a handful of straw.
"Seeing your depressed appearance, Linglong was so scared that she cried. If I catch you stealing things from other people's Immortal Sword Sects, you can see how I clean you up! ”
Mother Lu looked at her and rolled her eyes.
She called the servant and commanded in a cold voice, "Take her back, don't let her make trouble for me again!" ”
"Mother, can't you trust me once?" Lu Lingxi was held down by the little girl's hand, she snorted, and defended herself in a very low voice.
But Lu Mu just waved her hand irritably, and let the little guy take Lu Lingxi away directly.
Not long after the few of them left the pharmacy, the young Shen Mingshu came back with a herb.
Shen Mingshu is the owner of this pharmacy.
At this time, he had just studied alchemy, and he had been depressed for several days.
"This time, I will definitely be able to successfully refine the Pure Heart Pill." He put the herbs he had brought into the herbs he had prepared, and was about to refine them, but he found an herb that he had not prepared himself.
He picked out the herb, frowned dissatisfiedly, and called his subordinates.
"Has anyone ever been in my pharmacy today?"
"It seems that a friend of the sect master came to visit, and her daughter entered by mistake." The servant pondered for a moment and replied.
Hearing this answer, Shen Mingshu thought it was a child who was naughty, and didn't care, so he picked up the herb that Lu Lingxi put and put it aside.
A morning passed, and he refined Qingxin Fan several times in a row, and changed several herbs, but all of them failed.
Looking at the waste pill in the place, Shen Mingshu rubbed his hair a little frantically, and sighed, "What is this last herb!" ”
Just as he was wailing, his eyes fell on the herb he had set aside on the table.
The ghost sent the god to the ground, and he threw the medicinal herb into the alchemy furnace.
"Maybe it's just right to be refined?" He smiled wryly and comforted himself, "Anyway, I can't find the right last medicine, so I might as well try it." ”
To his surprise, after adding this flavor medicine, he actually refined the Pure Heart Pill.
The people outside the light curtain instantly became even more emotional.
"Lu Lingxi is really a genius of alchemy."
"Lu Lingxi said that he had seen Lu's father's medical skills when he was at home, and it seems that the Lu family is not an ordinary farmer."
"At such a young age, she can learn without a teacher, and she can memorize Danfang just by peeking at medical books, which is really talented, but it's a pity that Lu's father and Lu's mother didn't see her talent at all."
In the light curtain, Shen Mingshu took out the Qingxin Pill from the alchemy furnace with a look of surprise.
He took a closer look and found that this Qingxin Pill was extremely pure and free of impurities, and there was no doubt that this medicinal herb was the most suitable.
"Since it is the child of Master's friend who comes to my pharmacy, he is also very smart to come. She was afraid that she saw my predicament and deliberately helped me. Shen Mingshu touched his chin and speculated.
He called his subordinates and asked, "Are Master's friends still guests in the sect?" ”
"I'm afraid I'm leaving, if you want to see them, you may be able to meet them at the sect gate now." The servant thought for a moment and replied.
Shen Mingshu ran out of the pharmacy without hesitation and ran to the door of the Immortal Sword Sect in one go.
Standing in the distance, he saw Jiang Yanhan sending a mother and daughter out of the sect.
The woman looked noble and elegant, dressed in jeweled clothes.
The girl she was holding in her arms had pink and peach cheeks, a pair of almond eyes were watery, and she was biting half a sugar gourd in her mouth, which was as cute as a little doll in a New Year's painting.
Shen Mingshu stood there a little embarrassed and scratched his head, he wanted to go forward directly to thank him, but he didn't know why, the moment he saw this little doll, he had a trace of timidity, so he had to stand under the big tree in the distance.
But as if sensing his gaze, the cute female doll suddenly turned her head and met his eyes.
A gust of wind blew, and the peach blossom tree at the gate of the sect fluttered and fell a burst of petals, and the little girl grinned and smiled at him.
At that moment, Shen Mingshu shook his head.
When he came to his senses again, there was no trace of the mother and daughter in front of him.
Shen Mingshu outside the light curtain trembled slightly.
It was because of Lu Linglong's smile that he came up with the idea of being Lu Linglong's brother for life.
Of course, the deepest level is not because of this brief meeting, but because of the medicine that Lu Lingxi found for him before.
Before meeting Lu Linglong, he already admired the little girl who helped him find the last medicine.
There are not many little girls in the Immortal Sword Sect who are more cute than Lu Linglong, and what really moves him has always been what he thinks...... Lu Linglong's so-called talent.
Lu Lingxi is a real genius!
It turned out to be wrong from the start.
It was because he didn't confirm it carefully, but he later knew that Lu's mother had two daughters.
But he didn't ask carefully, but preconceived that the talented person was Lu Linglong.
He's the biggest fool in the world!
Shen Mingshu's heart was in pain, and all kinds of torture he had inflicted on Lu Lingxi in the past came to mind again.
He stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Shi Kuang's eyes were quick and he helped him.
"Immortal Master Shen, otherwise let's go, don't look at it." Ten Bitter looked at the light curtain with some embarrassment.
"No!" Shen Mingshu's voice trembled, he opened his eyes again, and looked at the light curtain, "I want to watch it, no matter what, I want to know why Lu Lingxi is willing to be so good to me all the time!" ”
"I'm going to watch what I've done! Compared with the pain that Lu Lingxi has personally experienced over the years, what can this pain in my heart be counted as now? ”
On the light curtain, Jiang Wanhan sent Lu Mu and Lu Lingxi away, and when he turned his head, he happened to see Shen Mingshu with a stunned face.
He smiled slightly and beckoned to Shen Mingshu, "Good boy, come here." ”
Shen Mingshu smiled, approached Jiang Yanhan's side and bowed, "Master, I have refined the Pure Heart Pill that you asked me to refine." ”
"Oh? So fast? Jiang Wanhan raised his eyebrows slightly, but his expression did not fluctuate much.
"It's just that I didn't find the last herb of Qingxin Dan, it was your friend's daughter who occasionally passed by my pharmacy and helped me put it." Shen Mingshu obediently told the truth.
This time, Shen Mingshu's expression changed a little.
He turned his head to look in the direction where Lu Linglong left, and the look in his eyes was like a spring breeze, "It seems that Lu Linglong is really a talented child." ”
"Linglong ......" Shen Mingshu muttered this, and felt more and more that a cute female doll like her was suitable for this good name.
"Master, since Linglong helped me, I should thank me in person, I want to go out of the sect to visit her at the Lu family in person."
"Absolutely." Jiang smiled warmly.
With the permission of the master, Shen Mingshu immediately set off for the Lu family.
Before entering the courtyard of the Lu family, he saw a noble lady who was still dressed gorgeously in the morning, but at this time, she was carrying a broom with a vicious face, and drove a little girl with a yellow face and thin muscles out of the house.
"You can't make it! Hurry up and collect the eggs in the chicken coop for me, and I'm going to make pastries for Linglong in the evening. ”
Lu Mu scolded and scolded Lu Lingxi.
Lu Lingxi's eyes were red, and she looked at Lu's mother pitifully, "Mother, if I pick up eggs, can I also make a pastry for me?" Today is my ......"
"Eat, eat, eat! You know how to eat! It's for your sister, don't you count it? Take you out today, you make trouble for me, I haven't settled accounts with you yet! ”
Lu Mu interrupted her unceremoniously and slammed the door shut.
Lu Lingxi stood in the yard with some embarrassment, and could only sigh helplessly, turned around and went to the chicken coop to pick up eggs.
"Obviously today is also my birthday, why don't my father and mother remember? I just ate a pastry on my birthday, why should I be scolded? ”
She muttered under her breath as she picked up the eggs.
Shen Mingshu stood outside the courtyard and listened to all of Lu Lingxi's words.
He frowned a little distressedly and took out a Night Pearl from his storage bag.
"Little sister, this is for you." He held the Night Pearl and handed it to Lu Linglong.
"Who are you? My father and mother said that you can't accept things from people you don't know. Lu Lingxi was startled by Shen Mingshu, who suddenly appeared, and took two steps back with a little cringe.
"I'm not a stranger." Shen Mingshu smiled softly, stood up straight and did not continue to approach Lu Lingxi.
"I am Shen Mingshu, the disciple of the Immortal Sword Sect Sect Master Jiang Yanhan, and I have come to visit the Lu family today, this is the birthday gift I specially prepared for you, if you don't accept it, won't it break my heart?" Shen Mingshu said with a smile.
He knew that as long as he said this reason, the other party could accept his gift with confidence.
Sure enough, a glimmer of light immediately flashed in Lu Lingxi's eyes.
"You know it's my birthday?"
Shen Mingshu sneered and said stubbornly, "Of course, this is what Ling Tang specially told me. ”
"Mother, what did she tell you?" Lu Lingxi took the Night Pearl in Shen Mingshu's hand and asked in disbelief.
Looking at the gentle smile on Lu Lingxi's face, Shen Mingshu felt that his little lie was also worth it.
After giving the gift, Shen Mingshu hurriedly entered the house to find Lu Linglong.
And Lu Lingxi was still standing in the courtyard, holding the night pearl in his hand and looking at it as a treasure.
After looking at the Night Pearl for a long time, she ran back to her room, found her favorite handkerchief, and carefully wrapped the Night Pearl.
"It turns out that my mother didn't forget my birthday...... This is the first birthday gift I have received. Brother Shen just saw me for the first time, and he was so kind to me, and I must repay Brother Shen's kindness in the future. ”
She muttered to herself to the wrapped Night Pearl, but her little yellow face was resolute.
It was only at this time that the people outside the light curtain understood.
"It turns out that this is the reason why Lu Lingxi is so good to Shen Mingshu."
"Lu Lingxi is also pitiful, since Lu Linglong was born, she is like being abandoned, not to mention a birthday gift, no one even remembers her birthday."
"Shen Mingshu who appeared at this time is simply a light in Lu Lingxi's gloomy life."
"It's a pity that Lu Lingxi doesn't know that Shen Mingshu is the one who mistakenly confessed to putting that herb on him, and Shen Mingshu's later preference for Lu Linglong originally belonged to her."
"If Shen Mingshu hadn't mistaken people at that time, and Lu Lingxi regarded Shen Mingshu as his benefactor, they would definitely become an enviable pair of brothers and sisters, right? How could there be anything to do with Lu Linglong? ”
On the light curtain, Shen Mingshu found Lu Linglong after visiting Lu's mother.
"Sister Linglong, thank you for helping me find the last medicinal herb of the Qingxin Pill today, this is a thank you gift specially prepared for you, please be sure to accept it."
He took out a gemstone necklace with a texture as clear as water and placed it in front of Lu Linglong.
"Wow!" Lu Linglong's eyes immediately straightened when she saw the necklace, and she immediately accepted the necklace beautifully, "Thank you, Brother Shen!" ”
It's just that when she received the gift, she completely ignored the first half of what Shen Mingshu said.
Shen Mingshu, who was outside the light curtain, looked at Lu Linglong's unintentional appearance at all, and was both annoyed and ashamed in his heart.
Annoyed that Lu Linglong is so shameless, he can casually take credit from others for a necklace.
Shamefully, this necklace was a hundred times more precious than the night pearl he gave Lu Lingxi.
That little night pearl is a must-have for immortal cultivators, and it also comes to illuminate at night.
Later, like this Night Pearl, he gave Lu Linglong I don't know how much, in addition to the Night Pearl, there are also exercises, medical skills, and all kinds of treasures, he gave them to Lu Linglong without hesitation.
He almost did his best to pay for Lu Linglong.
But for Lu Lingxi, he only gave this moment of insignificant night pearls from beginning to end.
Even when he saw Lu Lingxi again, he had forgotten that he had given a gift casually.
It is insignificant, but Lu Lingxi regards it as a treasure, and has always cherished it incomparably, and even because of that little night pearl of meager value, he has been kind to him with all his heart.
The grace of a drop of water is reciprocated by a spring.
This sentence is vividly reflected in Lu Lingxi's body.
But he ......
What did he do?
Shen Mingshu, who has always been quiet, burst into tears unconsciously.
At this time, the picture on the light curtain changes again.
