Chapter 9

Originally, Xiao Song thought that this matter would end with 'she physically scared the fourth brother away', but he didn't expect that three days later, Li Zhuqin sent a box to serve her, food, clothing, housing and transportation.

Xiao Song was very surprised. He looked at the little boy with a white and cute baby face, and then looked at the box that was not particularly luxurious: "Li... Brother sent me?"

The little boy held the box regularly: "If you return to the girl, it was given by my young master."

"Didn't you send the wrong person?"

The corners of Xiaochen's eyes twitched slightly - girl, you are doubting his ability to do things!" If you go back to the girl, no!"

It's amazing, it's quite a bad temper!

Xiao Song took the brocade box, held it in his hand and rubbed it carefully. He touched the switch with his fingers, opened the switch, and slightly opened a seam, but found a small bottle of white jade lying in it. She gently closed the box and looked up at him: "What else did Brother Li say?"

The little boy shook his head: "If you go back to the girl, my young master ordered Bier to give this box to the girl, and there is no other explanation."

"What other people have you met along the way?"

"No."

Xiao Song pondered for a moment, "I know... I took this box and thank Brother Li for me."

"Yes, girl. Bier retreated."

Xiao Song waved his sleeve casually: "Well, go ahead."

The little boy bent down and bowed, and his figure quickly disappeared into the depths of the corridor and could never be found. Xiao Song Shiran moved to the pavilion, sat on the white jade stool, put the brocade box on the round table, and opened the lid of the box, but instead of getting the white jade bottle, he picked up a note on one side of the small bottle. Opening the note, the upper line of upright regular script jumped into her eyes - 'a full grain'.

Xiao Song raised his eyebrows, picked up the white jade bottle again, smelled it, a clear fragrance, mixed with a faint bitter fragrance belonging to medicinal herbs, and poured out some round black pills in the palm of his hand, very small... To put it bluntly, it was the size of mouse shit. It is estimated that 40 to 50 pills can be put in this palm-sized white jade bottle.

She understood Li Zhuqin's mind.

It's just... Xiao Song meditated, is it really okay to eat this?

It's not that she doesn't want to believe him. Anyway, he is just a 16 or 17-year-old child. There is no hair on his mouth, and he can't do things firmly. The ancients are honest and don't bully me... I don't feel so credible.

......

At dusk half a month later, there was a heavy rain in the sky without warning, which was quite magnificent. It hit the world at a lightning speed, causing countless unlucky people who were caught off guard. It took a full hour before it slowly began to end, but it was still not clean. The drizzling rain was still floating in the air, like countless cow hair and silver threads, purifying the earth.

Lizhu Qin was preparing to go back after collecting medicinal materials in the mountains, but he was trapped by the rain and had to find a cave to hide for an hour. When the rain gradually stopped, he didn't care whether he would get wet and hurried back to Bibomen.

As soon as I stepped into my yard, I didn't have time to brush off the water drops on my hair. At a glance, I saw a little girl in blue standing on the railing.

The mountains in the distance are vast, and there is a new fog after the rain, with a hazy feeling.

She leaned against the railing like this, completely unaware that her skirt and clothes were wet by the rain. Her eyes were quiet and comfortable, as if she were looking at a cluster of big leaves and bananas in the courtyard. The rain beats ten thousand pieces of bananas, and the ground is flowing.

The years stagnated at that moment and never moved forward again.

It seems that a long time ago, he couldn't tell whether it was a previous life or this life... He also saw a woman standing in front of the eaves, listening to the rain silently and moistening things without a trace.

The medicine basket fell to the ground, and the herbs scattered all over the ground.

When the little girl in blue heard the movement, she put her eyes on it. Through the dark rain curtain of the courtyard, the precious light flowed in a pair of dark and lacquer-like eyes, and dispersed the chill: "Brother, okay, how did you scatter this medicinal herbs?" Unexpectedly charming.

The image of the woman suddenly dispersed and shattered into tens of thousands of streams.

Lizhu Qin lowered his eyes and lowered his complex eyes and picked up the herbs one by one.

A white and delicate small hand held a green herb and casually played with it in his hand: "Eight Fairy Grass?"

"...Do your sister recognize you?"

"Just guess. Just now, I was bored, so I casually turned over a few books in your study, and there happened to be this grass on it..." She blinked: "Cure dampness and heat, heat, deficiency, muscle and bone pain, *, red and white turbidity, * pain. Blood and fever, urine and blood... Is that what it says?"

"Yes... my sister has a good memory."

"Brother is flattered. I'm just rote, but I don't know what it means. It's not as good as my brother. She handed the Eight Immortal Grass to him boredly, "What's wrong with Brother Li today? So absent-minded? Aren't you fooled by this rain?" There was a smile in his eyes, and the meaning of ridicule was very obvious.

He took the herb and stuffed it into the medicine basket at will. His face had returned to calm. "How could my sister come here in such a heavy rain?"

"Naturally, I'm here to thank you." The little girl pouted childishly, "Who would have expected that you were not here? I was going to come back another day, but I caught such a rare heavy rain and was trapped for more than an hour."

Lizhu Qin Jian frowned slightly: "Where's Bi'er?"

"Don't blame him. He wants to serve me behind the saddle. I asked him to do what he should do." Xiao Song squeezed his lips carelessly, "This is the first time I have come to leave my brother's yard. It's so strange that I naturally have to take a good look. If he wanders in front of me, won't it disturb my interest? But I don't want to... so..."

So familiar.

For a moment, she felt that she had the illusion that she had returned to the short three years of her previous life and spent hundreds of days and nights in the Ziqing School.

Isn't it the layout of Xiao Xia's yard?

"How about it?"

"Nothing." Xiao Song withdrew his thoughts and thought about the words, "It's very elegant... very against my brother's style. Did the senior arrange it himself?"

"No..." He just liked the yard very much. At first glance, he fell in love with it and moved here stubbornly - even if he didn't know why he liked it. ...Your clothes are wet, be careful not to catch a cold. I'll take you back."

Xiao Song looked down at the clothes that were moistened into dark blue by the rain and said indifferently, "It doesn't matter, it's just wet. On the contrary, it's much wet than me. Let's go in and change into clean clothes."

"It's just that the coat is wet." He looked gentle, "It's getting late. I'll take you back."

Xiao Song's eyebrows bent: "Don't worry, I haven't thanked you yet."

"It's just a hand-on, don't worry about it."

Xiao Song said quite sincerely, "Brother Li's hand has solved my urgent needs. Brother can ignore it, but I can't."

Lizhu Qin was stunned and said, "I accept your thanks."

"It's too insincere to say it. How about I invite my brother to dinner another day?"

Lizhu Qin was stunned: "Can you cook?"

Xiao Song said righteously, "Brother, are you looking down on me?"

"I didn't mean to..."

Xiao Song's dark eyes rumbled, took Li Zhuqin's embarrassment in his eyes, and slowly said, "Of course I won't..."

Lizhu Qin: "..."

"But others will. Cuihu, which serves me, has a good cooking skill... I don't mind if I borrow flowers to offer Buddha, will I?"

"...no."

"Your pill works very well. I took it for a few days and felt much better. It's really useful."

"It's good if it's useful."

"Good... But the quantity is too small, and I've finished it. Is there anything else left for the senior brother? After going around for a long time, this is actually the key point!

"Have you finished eating?" Li Zhuqin pressed down one of his eyebrows and said, "Three capsules a day, the dose I prepared for you should be able to eat until the end of the month."

"Because it was so easy to use... so I ate a little more." At the beginning, she tried it. Anyway, she took the pill with the intention that she couldn't die. Unexpectedly, it was really useful and the effect was quite remarkable, which really impressed her. With the assistance of the pill, her spirit is obviously much better than before, at least her sleeping time is much shorter and can be controlled. However, the disadvantage is that she seems to rely more and more on this pill.

And as the magic skill is refined thousands of miles a day, the progress is getting faster and faster, and her dependence on pills is becoming more and more serious. It was less than half a month before he came to ask for it.

"Nonsense!" Li Zhuqin was very excited and almost knocked over the medicine basket again. Fortunately, Xiao Song's hands and feet were clever, he listened to all directions, and held the medicine basket so that it would not make the same mistake again.

Xiao Song looked at him in surprise: "What's wrong with you, brother?"

Li Zhuqin clenched his fist and reluctantly suppressed his abnormal excitement - this anger did not belong to him at all: "It's three poisons of medicine. No matter how good the pill is, it also contains toxins in it. How can you casually increase the dose without asking me?"

In the face of questioning, although Xiao Song was guilty for a moment, he still didn't care much: "I know the consequences. Brother, don't worry about me."

The anger that had been suppressed for a long time finally had a gap. He said harshly: "How can you abuse your body so badly? Have you ever thought that you don't care, but the people around you will feel sorry for you?

Xiao Song is a little distracted... It seems that someone said something similar to her a long time ago. Shaking her head and shaking off this ridiculous idea, she said seriously, "People have their own aspirations. I have what I want to pursue, so I have to pay a corresponding price for it. There are gains and losses. If there are causes, there are consequences. This is a natural cycle, which is the inevitable result." When the pills he sent worked, she knew that she was not practicing martial arts. He knew it.

But even if he knew, he did not choose to tell Dongfang Xun about it, but refined the pills and sent them to her. Does this mean that he is willing to keep this secret for her?

All kinds of emotions flashed in Xiao Song's eyes and finally became calm. The immature face and sweet smile are beyond the maturity and powerlessness that should be at this age. They all touched Li Zhuqin's heart and almost agreed with her words.

Xiao Song looked at him quietly, and the emotion flashed in his eyes. He continued without hesitation and continued, "It's not that I don't know the consequences, but in my heart, there is something far more important than this, which is so important that I can care about the consequences; it is so important that I know the consequences and I will choose to do it..." By any means.

She is not crazy or messy. She has always been rational - rationally making the most suitable choice for herself.

Xiao Song's eyes darkened and suddenly stared at him firmly. His eyes were sharp and did not allow the other party to escape at all. He said word by word, "Brother Li, I just want to ask you, are you willing to help me?"
