After the meal, Kong Rou forcefully took over the task of washing dishes and chopsticks, refusing to let He Gu do anything, and had to push him out.
She was weak, so He Gu could only cooperate and walk by herself.
Kongrou was in a good mood, humming a little tune while clearing away the dishes.
He Gu felt a little strange for a moment. This feeling of being completely served by others seemed quite refreshing.
Thinking about it again, it seems that he has become "unemployed", and he will no longer be required to do his only job of cooking and washing dishes.
Standing outside the door, he shook his head helplessly as he looked at the little girl in the room who was jumping for joy from time to time.
Entering Lin Qier's room, He Gu did not light any candles, but directly started meditating on the carpet in the outer room.
As the night gets darker, every sound becomes clearer.
Hearing the gentle breathing in the back room, he half fell asleep.
A night without words.
The next morning, He Gu woke up at the right time.
He immediately stood up and opened the bead curtain and entered the back room, but Lin Bian'er was not awake yet.
He felt a little strange. In the past, when a junior sister got cold, she would basically rest for one night.
He had no choice but to dare to wake him up randomly, for fear of affecting Lin Bian'er's recovery, so he had to temporarily suppress his restless heart.
He checked the Tianji Stone's predictions about today again, and after confirming that there was nothing special, he left the house.
Outside the house, Kongrou prepared breakfast diligently, really taking over all the housework.
Seeing He Gu coming out, Kong Rou asked, "Is Sister Lin awake?"
He Gu shook his head slightly.
Seeing this, Kong Rouben's high mood immediately dropped.
If something happens to Brother He's junior sister as soon as she comes, she will become a sinner.
He Gu quickly enlightened her: "Don't think too much, your sister Lin will be fine because of her good fortune."
Kongrou snorted softly, but still seemed a little unable to let go.
Perhaps because of this, the two of them had a simple breakfast in silence.
Not long after the meal, Leng Qingzhu appeared in front of the Bamboo Pavilion.
Kong Rou, who was working outside the house, hurriedly followed He Gu's instructions yesterday and respectfully called Leng Qingzhu "Senior Sister", feeling extremely nervous.
Leng Qingzhu nodded lightly, and then entered Lin Qier's room.
He Gu in the room quickly stood up and saluted.
It was because he was really worried about Lin Qier's situation that he passed the news to Leng Qingzhu.
Leng Qingzhu stepped forward and carefully inspected Lin Bian'er's body, and then put back Lin Bian'er's hand after a while.
"Teacher, take her to a suitable place to recuperate. She will come back when she is well. Don't worry."
As he spoke, he drew out a ray of spiritual power to lift Lin Qian'er up, and immediately tore through the void and took the person away.
His heart felt empty for a moment, but with Leng Qingzhu taking care of Lin Bian'er, he felt relieved and walked out of the room.
Kongrou seems to be very concerned about the situation inside and is absent-minded when working.
When she heard the door open, she immediately looked over.
He Gu walked to her side: "Your sister Lin was taken to another place to recuperate by Master. She will not come back until she is well."
Kongrou breathed a sigh of relief.
Suddenly, Master and Junior Sister were both gone, and He Gu felt a little uncomfortable.
Thinking about it, he said to Kong Judo: "Don't rush to do these tasks. I'll teach you how to practice first. I promised you yesterday."
Hearing this, a smile broke out on Kong Rou's face. She hurriedly dried her hands with a towel and stood up, with a look of anticipation on her face.
Since she was a child, she has admired the immortal cultivators her grandfather told her about, and hopes to become a cultivator, fly to the sky, escape from the earth, and travel across the mainland.
Unfortunately, her family conditions did not allow it, so she kept this dream in her heart, but she never gave up her fantasy.
Now that the opportunity finally came to her, she was very excited and even couldn't wait.
He Gu led Kong Rou to sit down on the stone practice platform aside.
"If a person wants to become a cultivator, the first step is to activate the natural spiritual buds in the body and grow them into spiritual roots. Once you have the spiritual roots and practice a skill, you can practice normally." He
I have never been a guide, so I can only think about it while talking.
Kong Rou was confused after hearing this.
"To stimulate spiritual buds, you need to use spiritual energy to irrigate it, but you are not a cultivator yet, so you cannot absorb the spiritual energy from heaven and earth by yourself, so this process needs to be slowly nourished with the help of external objects containing spiritual energy."
Speaking of this, He Gu suddenly thought of something and his expression became strange.
"Well... Generally speaking, the most effective method is to use medicated baths. Depending on the individual's physical constitution, the duration of medicated baths may vary, but it is usually around seven days."
Kong Rou hadn't realized the key yet. Although she still didn't quite understand what He Gu said and couldn't understand it, she still tried hard to listen and looked serious.
When He Gu gets into trouble, men and women avoid suspicion. He had never thought of this before.
He didn't dare to ask Leng Qingzhu, and it was too late now.
So he tried to ask: "Xiaorou, why don't you wait until your sister Lin is fully recovered after a while before asking her to help you practice?"
Medicinal bath requires a practitioner to use spiritual power to activate the medicine and guide the spiritual energy in the medicine into the body of the novice.
Generally, practitioners are trained by family elders when they are very young, so they basically have no such concerns, which is why He Gu didn't think of it for a moment.
Apart from his master, only his junior sister Lin Ji'er is suitable here.
Hearing He Gu suddenly say that he wanted to postpone it, Kong Rou couldn't help but feel anxious, fearing that he had changed his mind and didn't want to teach her anymore.
Knowing that she was not qualified to make demands due to her identity, she was immediately discouraged and looked very disappointed.
Regardless of the embarrassment, I had already promised, but now I had no choice but to break my promise and change my mind at the last minute, causing a little girl to be heartbroken.
"Brother He, did Xiaorou do something wrong..." Kongrou couldn't think of the reason, so she had to blame herself. She was used to this kind of thinking.
He Gu couldn't bear it and explained: "It's not Xiaorou's problem. I just said that you need to use medicinal bath to stimulate the spiritual buds. It's not convenient for me to help you."
"...I'm not afraid if it's Brother He."
Hope arose in Kongrou's heart, her big eyes showed anticipation, and her voice had a hint of prayer.
He Gu was speechless for a moment.
Little girls don't shy away from him, so he is embarrassed to continue to use this reason to reject others, as it can easily be misunderstood as dislike.
The key to this matter is not on his side. Since Kong Rou has said so, if he continues to push it back, it will appear that his thinking is not clean enough.
"Brother He..." Kongrou called out eagerly.
That pitiful look almost softened He Gu's bones.
He said a little unnaturally: "Okay, since Xiaorou trusts me so much, let's continue."
"Okay!" Kongrou cheered and jumped towards He Gu, her body moving so wildly that He Gu almost lost control.
"Calm down, calm down!" He Gu quickly held her down.
Only then did Kong Rou realize that something was wrong, her face turned red and she distanced herself.
Even though he was ashamed, he also felt strange in his heart. After all, Kong Rou was not as good-looking as Lin Bian'er, although after a few days of recuperation, her body was no longer malnourished.
Thinking about this problem, he took a closer look at Kongrou's appearance. Not to mention, the more he looked at it, the more cute she felt.
Kong Rou's facial features are very regular, her big eyes are particularly bright, and her skin is also very delicate and smooth.
If the effects of malnutrition were eliminated, he suddenly felt that he would look better if he were fed fatter.
After paying attention to this, he will definitely try it out if he has the opportunity in the future.
