Chapter 31: Mu Qing's thoughts
Tong Chen didn't know that his movements in the next few months had been arranged by Tong Ying, early the next morning, he went to the door of Mu's house to wait for her according to the previous agreement with Mu Qing, but this time Mu Qing came out of the house in advance, standing on the corner in front of Mu's house and waiting for him, seeing him coming, although Mu Qing also showed a smile on his face as usual, this smile looked very lonely.
"You're here......" Waiting for Tong Chen to approach, Mu Qing spoke first.
Tong Chen nodded, and said in a declarative tone: "En! I'm here!"
After speaking, he looked at the delicate face in front of him that he hadn't seen for many days, and said, "What's wrong with you?
"Nothing. Mu Qing shook her head, and then said, "Let's go, last time you invited me to eat fish, this time I will also invite you to eat delicious food, let's go to the city, I know a restaurant is very good." ”
Tong Chen smiled: "Okay." ”
The two walked side by side towards the center of the city, this time, the two didn't say much on the way, Mu Qing didn't seem to want to talk, and Tong Chen didn't know where to start.
It wasn't until the two of them walked to the door of a restaurant in the center of the city that looked exquisitely decorated from the outside, that Mu Qing spoke: "It's here, it's here!"
Tong Chen raised his head and saw a golden plaque hanging above the front of the restaurant, which was engraved with three big black characters of "Baiwei Building", just when he looked around and wanted to take a look at the whole restaurant, a young man wearing a man's costume ran out of the restaurant, and the young man ran straight to him and Mu Qing, and said with a warm smile: "Welcome two guests to my Baiwei Building, although we have a lot of guests today, but there is still a place upstairs, two guests, please come with me!"
After following the young guy into the Baiwei Building, Tong Chen found that there were indeed many people inside, and he couldn't see any clues from the outside, but as soon as he entered the inside, he would find that the hall on the first floor was indeed full of guests, and Tong Chen and Mu Qing followed the guy directly to the second floor.
After arriving at the second floor, Tong Chen found that there were compartments on the second floor, and the compartments were not completely closed, but against a wall on the back, and the two sides were separated by landscape screens.
Although the second floor is much quieter than the first floor, Tong Chen still found at a glance that most of the cubicles on the second floor were already full of people.
The guy took Tong Chen and Mu Qing straight to an empty cubicle, and after leading Tong Chen and Mu Qing to sit down in the cubicle, he took out the menu and asked Tong Chen and Mu Qing to order.
Mu Qing asked Tong Chen to order, Tong Chen said that he didn't know what was delicious here, and pushed the menu back to Mu Qing, and finally Mu Qing ordered a few dishes, and after the guy left, only Mu Qing and Tong Chen were left in the compartment.
There was ready-made tea on the table, Tong Chen poured a cup of tea for Mu Qing and himself, seeing that Mu Qing had been depressed, he didn't know what to say, so he picked up the teacup and drank tea, but he didn't expect that his lips had just touched the edge of the teacup, but Mu Qing suddenly spoke, and his voice was very low and depressed: "Many times I wish I was a boy, so that my father may not be as hard as he is now!"
Tong Chen put down the teacup and looked at Mu Qing: "Miss Mu, is something happening in your family?"
Mu Qing shook her head: "No, I just feel that I am very unlucky." ”
"What's wrong?" Tong Chen finally couldn't help but ask: "If you treat me as a friend, tell me, even if I can't help you solve it, I can comfort you!"
Mu Qing stared at the teacup on the table with her eyes, she didn't speak for a long time, for a while, she took a deep breath, and then looked at Tong Chen with a pretended smile: "Actually, I don't know what to say......"
After a pause, Mu Qing slowly spoke, "I should have told you earlier that I was my parents' only child, right?"
"Yes, I did. Tong Chen nodded.
Mu Qing snorted: "It is precisely because of this that both my father and the whole family have great expectations for me, but I am very discouraged, not only can I not help my father in all matters at home, but also I have not made any progress in cultivation for a long time, some time ago my father gave me a book of cultivation exercises, I have been enlightened for many days, but I have no clue, and now my father is sick again......"
"Sick?" Tong Chen looked at Mu Qing's smooth and white face: "What kind of illness did your father have?"
Tong Chen didn't ask, but when he asked, Mu Qing's eyes immediately turned red, and he choked up: "The pharmacist at home said that he was overworked and anxious, and if he didn't recuperate well for a period of time, it would have a very bad impact on his future cultivation, but he couldn't rest assured that he couldn't let go of the family and me, and forced him to say that he was fine......"
"Didn't you give Ling Zun the medicine to condition his body?" Tong Chen asked again.
Mu Qing shook his head: "My father's illness is a dark disease that has accumulated for many years, and the pharmacist said that ordinary medicines have no effect on him at all, it is said that recently we have come to Yuquan with an alchemy master, and he will regularly send the pills he refined to Wanbao Firm, and let Wanbao Firms come forward to help him sell them." ”
After a slight pause, Mu Qing said again: "After knowing the news, our family immediately sent someone to Wanbao Trading House, but after arriving, we learned that the pills that people took from the alchemy master last week had already been sold out!"
Hearing this from Mu Qing's mouth, Tong Chen's heart was a little proud, everyone thought that the alchemy master was some kind of traveling master from other places, but they didn't know that he was the mysterious and powerful alchemy master that is now passed down by many people in Yuquan.
Mu Qing naturally didn't know this little bit of caution in Tong Chen's heart, she sighed slightly, and said: "I have also calmed down in the past two days, and I feel that I really have a mentality of rushing to the doctor when I am sick, even if the alchemy master refines the elixir is powerful, it may not be suitable for my father's current condition, it is that I think the problem too simply." ”
"How do you know if you don't try it! The pill is the pill, the effect is not comparable to ordinary medicines, even if the pill sold by Wanbao Firm is not suitable for your father's condition, it must be able to greatly alleviate your father's pain, I think you should buy a few pills for your father to take and try it!"
The reason why Tong Chen said this was not because the Qingxin Pill was refined by him, so he strongly recommended it to Mu Qing, but because he was a real alchemist, and his understanding of the pill was deeper than that of most people, especially after listening to Zhao Lan say that the Qingxin Pill could cure Tong Yan's serious internal injuries, he had a deeper understanding of the Qingxin Pill he had refined, if it wasn't for the special effect of turning decay into magic, how could the pill make countless cultivators crazy?
