Hua Xiaoying raised her head tremblingly. When she saw Chu Ming's gentle and familiar face, her bright eyes widened. The next second she became at a loss as she groped around her body as if looking for something.
"Let me help you up."
Chu Ming smiled and helped her up, with a concerned look on his face.
"Are you okay? Why is your face so red?"
When Hua Xiaoying heard this, she quickly shook her head and distanced herself. This made Chu Ming confused and could only watch her spread the rice paper on her lap and take out the ink stone to write and draw.
"Brother, thank you for saving me again. I'm fine, I just feel a little hot."
hot?
Feeling the rustling autumn wind blowing against his skin, Chu Ming had doubts in his heart but didn't think about it.
“It’s fine as long as it’s okay”
"Brother, I didn't have time to ask last time. Can I ask your name this time?"
Seeing that Hua Xiaoying had written the words instantly, Chu Ming looked slightly stunned and answered subconsciously.
"Chu Ming, the painful Chu, the engraved inscription"
"Well, big brother, you promised me last time that if we meet again, you will come home with me."
You write too fast!
Looking at the rice paper stuck on his face, Chu Ming finally couldn't help but feel the urge to complain in his heart.
The most important thing is that I can write so fast without being sloppy, and my hand speed is really amazing.
"All right"
Seeing Hua Xiaoying's happy smile because he agreed to go home with her, Chu Ming chuckled warmly in his heart.
"It seems that you need a Nuanyang Pill when announcing affairs in the sect's affairs hall?"
Hua Xiaoying's eyes widened, and then her head nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
"That's right! The weather has turned cold recently, and my mother has caught wind and cold, so she urgently needs a Nuanyang Pill to warm her meridians."
"Is it……"
Chu Ming held his chin and thought for a moment, then smiled and touched Hua Xiaoying's head.
"I don't have the heart-warming pill, but I can try it to treat wind and cold."
After all, the wood spirit power itself has the ability to warm and nourish the meridians, drive away cold and provide warmth. It is too simple to cure such a minor illness.
"Really? Thank you, brother Chu Ming!"
Hua Xiaoying's cheeks turned red and she hurriedly took a step back. She bowed with excitement and thanked her. This contrasting behavior made Chu Ming reveal a bitter smile.
"Do you hate me? Why are you always so far away from me..."
"Because whenever brother Chu Ming touches me, I feel hot all over o(╥﹏╥)o, I'm sorry."
?
Seeing Hua Xiaoying clenching her hands and looking shy, Chu Ming looked slightly stunned, and then suddenly realized.
Is it because of the natural beauty?
Is this physique so strong?
Just touching her caused some strange reaction?
No wonder Mrs. Xu hugged my arm and rubbed it hard, and her eyes were inexplicably filled with deep admiration and love...
So that’s it!
"This is just an orange entry. If it is upgraded to a gold entry..."
When the image of himself being flanked and chased by countless men suddenly came to his mind, Chu Ming couldn't help but feel excited all over.
No, you have to get rid of your natural charm as soon as possible, otherwise something bad will happen sooner or later!
"Brother Chu Ming, where is my home?"
As if she felt that Chu Ming was a little sad, Hua Xiaoying stroked her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. She suppressed the heat in her heart, pulled his sleeves and pointed in the direction, picked up the wooden basket and gestured to leave.
"Let's leave quickly"
"Can you wait for me for a moment?"
Chu Ming turned his head and looked at the dark field not far away and said softly.
"I have a companion...here, she's here."
Before she finished speaking, An Muxi slowly floated down with a burst of cold spiritual power, causing ripples like water when her toes touched the ground.
Is this the strength of the Foundation Establishment Realm...
Chu Ming felt a trace of envy and yearning in his heart.
If Qi refining is the increase of spiritual power in the body, foundation building is the change of spiritual power in the body.
There are ten levels of Qi refining, each level is an expansion of the volume of the Dantian, until the spiritual power in it is so rich that it can be turned into a liquid state. This is foundation building.
"nailed it?"
Chu Ming hurriedly went up to him and smiled as he looked at the dark yellow crystal core in An Muxi's hand.
“It looks very smooth”
"I haven't taken any notice of a mere seventh-level Qi refining monster."
An Muxi snorted, raised her chin proudly, put away the demon crystal, turned her eyes, and stared at Hua Xiaoying who was timidly looking at her not far away.
"?"
She frowned slightly and was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned her head and twisted Chu Ming's ears viciously.
"Chu Ming! I'm just going to clean up a monster. Why are you getting involved with a girl again?!"
"Sister, please calm down!"
Chu Ming didn't know where An Muxi's anger came from, so he explained what happened before with a helpless expression, and then asked her to put her hands down.
"Feel sorry"
An Muxi glanced at her red cheeks in shame, twirled her hair with her fingers, and tried to explain her inexplicable behavior.
"I'm just worried that you will be deceived by others, so I'm a little angry."
Ah!
Your whole body is soft, why is your mouth so hard?
Chu Ming rubbed his ears and cursed secretly in his heart.
Tsundere, right?
Sooner or later, one day you have to take off your arrogance, leaving only coquettishness all over you!
"Your name is Hua Xiaoying?"
After hearing about Hua Xiaoying's experience from Chu Ming, An Muxi slowly squatted in front of her and showed her beautiful smile.
"Can you take Brother Chu Ming and me to your house to have a look?"
Hua Xiaoying nodded quickly, hugged the wooden basket and ran away.
Upon seeing this, An Muxi quickly followed, which surprised Chu Ming on the side.
"Senior sister, are you coming too? Aren't you in a hurry to do some business?"
"If you don't tell me everything, I'm afraid you will be deceived."
An Muxi rolled her eyes at Chu Ming and turned her red cheeks guiltily.
She didn't know why she wanted to follow him, she just felt unhappy if Chu Ming was allowed to stay with other girls!
I just protect him, I have no other ideas!
…
The two came to the northeast corner of the village at the foot of Zaoyufeng Mountain. What they saw was a dilapidated and simple thatched house, surrounded by a wooden fence as a yard. It was filled with various vegetables and fruits.
Extremely lush.
After arriving home, Hua Xiaoying first put the grains in the wooden basket in her arms into the backyard kitchen, and then led the two of them into the house to sit down.
Looking around curiously, Chu Ming looked slightly stunned.
Compared to the shabby appearance, the house is surprisingly clean and tidy inside. Of course, this may be because the furniture only has a table and two straw mats.
However, An Muxi didn't mind and sat cross-legged on it, observing the surroundings vigilantly. Chu Ming, on the other hand, took the two fruits from Hua Xiaoying with a confused look on his face.
"This is?"
"Seedless Melon"
Hua Xiaoying lowered her eyebrows and looked apologetic.
"Because there is no tea at home to entertain you, I had to pick two fruits from outside the house for you to eat. I hope you don't mind."
"..."
The fruit is plump overall, somewhat similar to a pear, and has a golden surface without any spots, making it look very appetizing.
But Chu Ming didn't eat, and was extremely surprised.
As an alchemist, it is a basic course to be familiar with the effectiveness and age of various alchemy materials.
The melon in front of you is commonly known as "seedless melon" and its scientific name is "Snow Pear". It has extremely high nutritional value and is the main ingredient of Bigu Pill.
Of course, none of this surprised Chu Ming. What puzzled him was the age of this melon and fruit.
Thirty years of Sydney?
This girl is not as old as she is! How did she grow it?
