Chapter 376: Missing Us So Much
On this day, Qicheng Zhenren and his party picked several baskets full of medicinal herbs, washed them and carried them back to the top of the mountain.
On the top of the mountain, Song Yue and Shi Xiaoliu burned several fires. Song Yue took out a large cauldron and placed it directly on the fire.
He poured an appropriate amount of water inside, while Shi Xiaoliu placed medicinal herbs inside.
Shi Xiaoliu, Shi Zelan and Xia Yu were lighting a fire. Master Qicheng came back carrying two bundles of dry branches.
As the night got darker, the fire in the fire gradually extinguished. Songyue and Shi Xiaoliu smelled the smell of medicine coming out of the cauldron, and they nodded with satisfaction.
"Xiao Liu, we succeeded this time.
Do you want to leave some ointment?"
Shi Xiaoliu shook his head and said: "Second Senior Brother, take them all away. Well, there is this kind of medicinal herb here. I can refine the ointment if I have the chance."
"Okay, I won't be polite to you anymore. I will tell you the uses of this ointment and some methods of preparing it. Let me talk to you carefully.”
Since Shi Xiaoliu was so generous, Song Yue would not be stingy with him, so she was willing to give him some advice on how to refine elixirs.
When the Pavilion Master of the Medicine Pavilion came that time, he had already taught Shi Xiaoliu some methods, but this time Songyue taught him some common sense, and he found that it was more suitable for his current cultivation level.
When Songyue and Shi Xiaoliu were alone on the top of the mountain, they stood on the edge of the mountain. Songyue and Shi Xiaoliu whispered about some people and things in the medicine pavilion.
After hearing this, Shi Xiaoliu felt a little uneasy and said: "Second senior brother, after my master retreated, I sent messages to the senior brother several times.
The senior brother answered me seriously every time. Question, did I delay his cultivation?”
Song Yue saw the serious look in Shi Xiaoliu's eyes, and he couldn't say that Shi Xiaoliu didn't disturb his senior brother's practice.
"Xiao Liu, since the senior brother has answered your questions every time, it shows that the senior brother cares about you.
If you feel a little uneasy, just take advantage of this opportunity When I was here, we picked more medicinal herbs and refined some ointments.
You can give the ointments as gifts to the senior brothers. This ointment is also useful to the senior brothers.”
"Okay."
The next day, Shi Xiaoliu told Shi Zelan and Xia Yu about the senior brother in the Medicine Pavilion. He felt uncomfortable and said: "I heard that senior brother was not very good.
I sent a message at that time In the past, he said it was almost done, but I actually believed it."
After Shi Zelan and Xia Yu looked at it, Shi Zelan said to Shi Xiaoliu: "Second senior brother said that the ointment extracted from this herb is good for everyone. Senior brother is of use. Let’s go to the mountain to pick some more and bring them back today.” Come here."
Songyue went to pick herbs with the three of them. Master Qicheng stayed on the top of the mountain. He said, "You just go pick the herbs and leave the firewood to me."
Songyue followed Shi Xiaoliu and the other two people as they walked in the mountain forest and saw patches of medicinal herbs.
He exclaimed: "Herb collectors in the secular world will not know what treasures they have missed until many years later."
Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said to him: "Second Senior Brother "The herbs they use now are beyond my original imagination."
He and Songyue mentioned some of their experiences in the capital, and also mentioned the precision of some doctors in Yangzhou Prefecture.
Shi Xiaoliu admired: “They have seen too many patients and encountered many conditions that need to be overcome.
They never give up on the patients who come to seek treatment and do their best to help them.
I actually admire their medical skills and ethics from the bottom of my heart. "
Listening to Shi Xiaoliu's words, Songyue's brows twitched slightly and she warned: "Xiaoliu, you must not do unnecessary things, do you understand? "Second senior brother, I understand."
Sometimes good intentions may not always lead to good things, and I don’t want to do anything superfluous. ”
On this day, they picked a lot of medicinal herbs and went back. At night, the strong smell of medicinal herbs wafted from the top of the mountain.
Zhen Qicheng stood on the edge of the mountain for a long time. Xia Yu walked over and asked, "Uncle, the smell of the medicine is too strong. Can I accompany you to another place?"
Master Qicheng shook his head: "Yu'er, it has nothing to do with the smell of medicine.
Your uncle Jun and Wanyu said they would come over. It has been several days, but they have not come. I am a little worried."
< br>After hearing what Master Qicheng said, Xia Yu immediately said: "Uncle, do you want to send a message to Uncle Jun?"
After Master Qicheng pondered for a moment, he shook his head and said, "Just wait a little longer, maybe they will arrive tomorrow."
Xia Yu looked at the expression on Master Qicheng's face, thought about it and asked: "Uncle "Are you going back to the sect?"
Master Qicheng turned to look at Xia Yu and said: "Your grandmother has been in seclusion for many years. A few days ago, I heard someone said that your grandmother was in seclusion. There is movement somewhere, I want to go over and take a look."
Xia Yu immediately became happy after hearing what Qicheng said: "Uncle, is grandma about to leave seclusion?"
" It’s hard to say, I’ve heard this news several times in the past twenty years, I hope this time the news is correct.”
"Uncle, if my grandmother is released from prison, will my father be released from prison soon?"
After listening to Xia Yu's words, Master Qicheng showed a tangled look on his face.
“Yu’er, it’s very difficult to explain your father’s release from seclusion.
I heard from Xiaoliu and Sister Lan that their master had made an appointment to go out before seclusion that day.
But looking at the current situation, they are afraid that they will not be released in the next year or two. ”
After hearing what Master Qicheng said, Xia Yu nodded and said, "Uncle, if my grandmother is released from confinement, do I need to rush back to the sect to see my grandmother?"
Master Qicheng thought about it carefully and said : "I will notify you then."
Xia Yu turned around and walked to the firewood pile with a happy face, and added a few firewood to the fire.
Seeing the joy on his face, Shi Zelan smiled and said, "Is Wanyu coming soon?"
Xia Yu shook her head and said, "My uncle has not received any news about their arrival. , I’m just in a good mood right now.”
Shi Zelan looked at the smile on Xia Yu's face, and she laughed: "Okay, you are in a good mood, I think it is a good thing."
The night was getting dark, and only Songyue and Shi Xiaoliu were left by the fire. People, they watched the fire gradually extinguish.
The two smelled the strong smell of medicine coming from the cauldron, and took a closer look at the ointment inside.
Song Yue asked Shi Xiaoliu with a smile: "Give it all to senior brother, or leave some for you to save for later use?"
"Second senior brother, give it all to senior brother, it's still troublesome. Second senior brother helped me give it to senior brother.”
"No trouble, I'm very happy.
When we helped the junior brothers answer their questions, we never thought that the junior brothers would care about us so much afterwards."
Shi Xiaoliu said very ashamedly : "Second Senior Brother, what you said makes me feel very sorry."
Songyue looked at Shi Xiaoliu and smiled. He did not tell Shi Xiaoliu that apart from the physical discomfort, Senior Brother, In fact, I was unhappy in my heart.
