XVIII. The Road to the West 7 The Beginning of Love
More than an hour later, the carriage stopped in a small village pavilion in the middle of nowhere. Chen Jiuge replaced the tired horse, and then sat back in the carriage front room.
Xiao Yan was still sitting motionless in the carriage, and his breath had calmed down. At this time, Qingyun just woke up.
"Miss Qingyun, do you want to drink some water?" Chen Jiuge asked softly.
"Big liar...?What is our situation now?" Qingyun was surprised when she saw him.
"We're in a township post station now, and I've just changed horses, and I'm about to continue on my way!" replied Chen Jiuge.
"Wagon? You saved us?" Qingyun seemed a little unconvinced.
"That bad old man, although his cultivation is the pinnacle of the acquired realm, his martial arts are really poor..."
Chen Jiuge smiled slightly, then touched her arm with a water bag and reminded her again if she wanted to drink some water.
"Stupid... Didn't you notice that I was pointed?"
Qing Yun gave him a blank look and said.
"I've been pointed, but I... I don't know how to solve acupuncture... What to do?"
In addition to basic kung fu, he also learned a knife technique and a light skill.
"I don't know how to solve acupuncture... Who believes it? You can defeat the peak master of the Acquired Realm, but you don't know how to solve the acupoints, so how did you get this skill?"
"Really... Not really, I... I haven't had time to learn yet! Why don't you wait for Xiao Yan to wake up and let him explain it to you..."
Chen Jiuge scratched the back of his head, looking embarrassed.
Qing Yun looked at his silly appearance, and involuntarily glanced at the mouse on his shoulder. I remembered that when I saw it for the first time, it was also this silly appearance, and my mood suddenly relaxed a lot.
"Okay, it's actually not difficult! Use your fingers to point at the middle acupoint, the purple palace acupoint, and the two shoulder acupoints, don't mess up the order. ”
Chen Jiuge followed her instructions and tried once, but was unsuccessful.
“... Fingertips condense into needles, you don't need to use so much force!"
Chen Jiu tried again. It's just that inadvertently, my finger touched a place where it shouldn't...
“ ... You big liar... It can't be a deliberate attempt to take advantage of this girl, right?"
Qingyun Xing's eyes widened angrily, and her face was red with shame. Thinking that he had been in a coma for so long, he had bandaged himself, if he took the opportunity to do something...
"I... I'm not... Deliberately!"
The face of this two-year-old brother was even redder than hers, and even his voice became smaller.
"Stupid, do it again! Condense into a needle, and strike quickly..."
Under Qingyun's continuous correction, Chen Jiuge tried a few more times, and finally unlocked her acupoint.
Qingyun tried to stretch her arms, but she touched the wound on her body, and for a moment the pain turned into a cracked mouth, and then the pain turned into scolding:
“... If it weren't for the fact that this girl is injured now, and her true qi in her body is empty and she has no strength, she will definitely poke your body with her fingers a thousand times and ten thousand times!"
In fact, she also knew that he had done a good job. When I wanted to learn some acupoints and solve acupoints by myself, I was far inferior to him. She wanted to praise him a few words...
Chen Jiuge looked at her puffing little appearance, and suddenly found that her angry appearance was actually quite good-looking. Originally, I felt a little aggrieved and wanted to refute a few words, but I couldn't say anything when the words came to my mouth.
He was even wondering what it would be like if she really poked himself a thousand times and ten thousand times. It seems that this two-generation brother is about to open his mind...
Qing Yun calmed down for a moment, and then took out a small medicine bottle from her waist bag. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, put away the medicine bottle again, and said to Chen Jiuge:
"Hey, big liar, do you still have a good qi pill? Why don't you take one out and let this girl also gain knowledge..."
The meaning of this rising insight is naturally to ask him for the Qi Benefiting Pill!
"Oh... Yes...!"
In this distress, everyone can be regarded as friends who have experienced life and death together, and Chen Jiuge will naturally not be stingy with a pill.
Watching Chen Jiuge take out the medicine bottle from his arms, pour out a pill of Qi Benefiting Pill, and then put it in the palm of his hand. Qingyun looked calm on the outside, but in fact, she was looking forward to it for a long time, and secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"This is the Yiqi Pill... With it, you can speed up the pace of achieving innate! Soon I will be able to marry myself, and then I will marry and teach my children and enjoy my family..."
"Your body is still very weak, it is recommended to refine it slowly with your mouth... The effect may be a bit violent!"
Chen Jiuge's reminder interrupted her thoughts.
"Uh... Got it!"
Qingyun didn't expect to open his mouth casually, so he gave it without hesitation. Thinking that he was so fierce to him just now, he suddenly felt that he couldn't help it.
So I took a few more sneaky glances at him and found that he didn't seem to care much. Then he reined in his mind and sat firmly, and put the Yiqi Pill in his mouth...
......
At the beginning of noon, Xiao Yan and Qingyun in the carriage woke up from meditation. The three of them were in good spirits, and this experience made the distance between them a lot closer.
Qingyun seemed very happy, because Xiao Yan gave her a bottle of homemade special medicine, which is said to fade scars and whiten skin. And promised her that he would refine a few bottles of Qi Benefiting Pill for her.
Xiao Yan almost went mad this time, but because of a blessing in disguise, the meridians in his body were widened a lot.
As for Chen Jiuge, he would always use his spirit to perceive Qingyun's every move from time to time, and occasionally sneak a glance or two...
The snack goods flew into Qingyun's arms again, enjoying the food that Qingyun gave it...
"Miss Qingyun, don't you disciples of the Qianyan Sect give yourself divination?" Chen Jiuge had already wanted to ask.
"That's right! All my disciples of the Qianyan Sect will not go to divination for themselves, nor will they easily divinate for their fellow disciples. It's a rule... Of course, when it's a whim!," Qingyun replied.
"What is a whim?" Chen Jiuge and Xiao Yan asked in unison.
"That is, when I feel that something big is going to happen, I can divinate good fortune and evil fortune for myself, and I can't calculate it, and I can't calculate it. The last time I met a snack seller, I did a divination, Daji!" Qing Yun smiled shallowly after speaking, and reached out to touch the snack seller's head again.
"It's really interesting! but... Sister Qingyun's hexagram doesn't seem to be very accurate, this time it is so dangerous, how can it be regarded as good luck?" The question Xiao Yan asked was naturally the question that Chen Jiuge wanted to ask.
Great opportunities usually coexist with great disasters, and as the saying goes, if you don't die in a great disaster, there will be a blessing in the future. Look at me now, aren't I still alive and well!?"
Qingyun was very proud, because she felt that she was about to be blessed!
"God is chattering, why do I think Sister Qingyun is like a god stick? Uh, no, it's a god woman!" Xiao Yan secretly scolded himself, he had only listened to her words before he would be careless.
... ...
When the time of Shen was approaching, the three of them stopped in Hefeng City, which was a hundred miles away from Xiangzhou City, and found an inn to stay temporarily and rest for a while.
Xiao Yan didn't rush to alchemy, but borrowed a few hundred taels of silver from Qingyun to go out to buy medicinal materials, wanting to improve the low-level Qi Replenishing Pill. After this lesson, he had to find a new way to make money for himself.
Chen Jiuge followed Xiao Yan and rented a grocery room in the backyard of the inn. I started trying to refine the Qi Pills by myself.
Qingyun, on the other hand, locked herself in the room, untied the cloth tapes that bandaged the wounds one by one, and then cleaned them up and re-bandaged them with medicine.
The mouth is constantly complaining that the big liar is rough and ugly, and strangled. But her heart is warm, and she feels more and more that this big liar is not as annoying as she imagined...
... ...
Chen Jiuge underestimated the difficulty of refining the elixir, he always thought that he had mastered the trick. But when refining, there are frequent problems. But fortunately, he only took less than a third of the amount of medicinal herbs at a time.
In the evening, when Xiao Yan came back, he happened to refine a furnace.
Xiao Yan shook his head helplessly, and could only buy another medicine stove back. I plan to try the improved Qi Replenishing Pill Pill at night.
Qingyun went out once in the afternoon, and when she came back, she told them a piece of news. It is said that a congenital master came from the six doors of Xiangzhou City, and he is now a guest at the Wumeng branch of Hefeng City.
It is said that someone broke into the forbidden land of the Medicine God Valley and brought out a relic of the Changsang Holy Monarch, but they are all rumors that catch the wind and shadows, and there is no evidence.
Qingyun also discovered that an uncle from the sect also appeared in Hefeng City. Thinking that it was better to have more than one thing, he bypassed it and didn't keep up.
In short, the three of them are not very interested in the relics or anything. Earning money in a low-key manner, and then refining more Qi Benefiting Pills is the most important thing for them at the moment...
... ...
In the middle of the night, Xiao Yan had successfully refined a furnace of Qi Replenishing Pill. Although the efficacy of the medicine has not been greatly improved, the impurities in the pill are seven or eight layers less than that of the ordinary Qi Replenishing Pill.
This Qi Replenishing Pill only has five flavored medicinal materials, and it is easier to refine than the Qi Replenishing Pill, and it doesn't take an hour to refine a furnace. Xiao Yan was in a good mood all of a sudden, and he could be regarded as having found a safe and efficient way to make money.
At this time, Chen Jiuge had already sealed the lid of his medicine furnace, and he was full of confidence in this furnace Chengdan.
Xiao Yan was very skeptical of his alchemy technique, and when he felt that the time was about the same, he rushed to open the lid of the furnace to see what was going on. It's just that he just stretched out his hand, and suddenly there was a muffled sound of "boom", and the stove lid was blown away, which frightened him and almost fell to the ground.
"Oh my mother! It can't be a fryer, right? But it shouldn't be, and it's not refined by innate true fire..."
Xiao Yan was a little stunned.
Chen Jiu Ge smiled at him mysteriously, reached out and took out the elixir from the medicine furnace, put it in the palm of his hand, and then handed it to him.
"The color is not bad, but unfortunately only one has been refined, do you want to try the medicinal effect? This is the first Qi Pills I have personally refined!"
Xiao Yan took the pill, looked at it carefully, sniffed it again, and then said:
"Well, looking at this color, it's already very close to the middle grade. However, the elixir refined by Brother Nine is still up to Brother Nine to test the efficacy. My little brother's internal injuries haven't healed yet..."
Xiao Yan returned the pill to him again. According to his speculation, without innate true fire, you can only get the next grade. What is the situation with this Qi Pill, which is infinitely close to the middle grade, he is muttering in his heart.
Chen Jiuge took the pill and put it in his mouth casually. Then he increased the amount of medicinal herbs, and excitedly began to refine the next furnace of elixir.
"Uh... Brother Jiu, don't you meditate when you take pills?" Xiao Yan said that he was a little incomprehensible.
"It's okay, it's just one!"
Chen Jiu Ge had the pill in his mouth and replied incoherently.
He didn't have the alchemy talent of Xiao Yan, so he could only be assisted by spiritual power perception to make up for the lack of technique and experience. Therefore, a lot of spiritual power is consumed, and the replenishment of spiritual power by the Yiqi Pill seems to be very effective...
