After Ning Zhishui finished speaking, he opened the door and went out.
Niu Yu held the bottle tightly, and he could still feel the warmth on the bottle, which was just like his mood at this time.
He had read everything related to elixirs from books. He only had the experience of watching a customer make elixirs once, but the man himself was also a dabbler.
Niu Yu practiced in the same way as that man. This should be the reason why Ning Zhishui mentioned errors in details and basic skills.
He stood at the door, looking in the direction where Ning Zhishui disappeared, his eyes full of excitement and admiration——
I wonder which master this is? If she, a novice like herself, can successfully refine a pot of pills just by explaining it, how good does she have to be?
He must be a well-known person on the mainland!
Ning Zhishui left the restaurant, walked around, bought some clothes and changed into them. I also bought some local delicacies, planning to give them to Master to try after returning to the sect.
When it got dark, she had breakfast before returning to the inn.
It was a coincidence that when she walked to the door of the inn, she happened to see a family of four from the Zhong family checking out with the shopkeeper.
The four members of the family looked bad. Josie was suffering because of her illness, and the other three were worried about her.
Qiao Nan supported her sister Qiao Qian very carefully, and put a cloak on her shoulders to prevent her from getting cold and aggravating her condition.
Although his attention was on Qiao Qian, when Ning Zhishui walked in, he still saw his eyes sweeping over and looking at her.
Ning Zhishui didn't panic at all, his current appearance was too deceptive. Moreover, the two of them have nothing to do with each other. Even if Qiao Nan is suspicious, it is impossible to find any doubts or evidence.
Sure enough, Qiao Nan looked at her and then looked away, and quietly looked at the people passing by in the store.
He opened the window and searched for it last night, but found no one. It seemed that it was just his illusion.
But that shouldn't be an illusion, because their family members heard very subtle noises.
Their sister's condition was worsening, and the inn seemed to be uneasy, so they decided to check out early in the morning and return to Ancheng.
Ning Zhishui was carrying a breakfast for his eldest brother.
When she passed by the Zhong family, the breakfast she was holding in her hand suddenly fell off the string and was thrown towards Qiao Nan.
Qiao Nan's eyes sharpened, she stretched out the sword in her hand to block it, and the breakfast was thrown far away.
You don't need to look at it to know that it's completely inedible.
"Ah, my breakfast..."
Ning Zhishui opened his mouth.
"I'm sorry, my sister is not feeling well. I was too worried... Why don't I pay you a share." Zhong Qiaonan raised her lips and said with a smile, her brows were clear and the moon was shining in the breeze.
"Forget it, I'll buy another one for my brother." Ning Zhishui sighed.
"I'll compensate you. Shopkeeper, pack a breakfast for this fellow Taoist." Zhong Qiaonan took out the crystal and gave it to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper agreed and asked the waiter to pack it.
Ning Zhishui didn't refuse anymore, "Thank you very much. It was my fault just now for not being sure."
"It doesn't matter, I reacted too much."
Ning Zhishui sighed in his heart that Zhong Qiaonan at this time was similar to his previous life, still gentle and thoughtful.
But this is just the appearance of this person. Some people are cold on the outside and hot on the inside, like Hua Jiaqing.
But there are also people who are hot on the outside and cold on the inside. They seem to be gentle and polite to everyone, but in fact they can't be more distant. Very few people can get into his heart.
However, now that he is still young, his vigilance may be slightly weaker.
Ning Zhishui has not forgotten how "cold-blooded" Zhong Qiaonan was in her previous life before she ascended.
While waiting for breakfast to arrive, Ning Zhishui looked at Zhong Qiaoqian naturally, "Is she... unwell?"
Qiao Nan hummed, with a worried look in her eyes, "Yes, just a few days after coming to Xiaochiyangtan, she fell ill for no reason. She tried many kinds of medicine but nothing worked."
Zhong Qiaoqian leaned on Qiao Nan's arms and tried her best to support her eyelids. When she heard the topic was brought up to her, she reluctantly spoke: "...Brother, don't worry about me."
"I know a little bit about alchemy. If you don't mind, you can tell me about the symptoms. Maybe multiple people can have multiple solutions?" Ning Zhishui said.
"This is it."
After hearing this, Qiao Nan thought for a moment before taking out a box and handing it to Ning Zhishui, "Remember not to touch it."
Ning Zhishui hummed, opened the box, and saw the branch inside.
The branches are green and very thin, with small hairs on them, and the leaves are filamentous and tender.
It is a very small and delicate leaf... This description may be strange, but it is indeed quite beautiful, but it cannot be called too special.
Ning Zhishui frowned, "It grows next to the pine thorn fruit tree?"
The Zhong family had finished checking out and were about to turn back to talk to the brother and sister when they were shocked when they heard this.
"Yes, little girl, how did you know?"
Ning Zhishui handed the box to them, "It actually doesn't have an accurate name, because it is a companion grass. Companion plants are often affected by changes in weather temperature, etc., and are diverse. But I think its leaves should be It’s the companion grass of pine plants, so I took a guess.”
"Is it poisonous?" Master Zhong asked.
"It's not poisonous." Ning Zhishui shook his head.
"It's not poisonous? If it's not poisonous, then why did the little girl fall ill?" Mrs. Zhong was puzzled.
"It's an introduction. What really made this fellow Taoist fall ill should be something else. For example, did she touch the flowers nearby?" Ning Zhishui asked.
Zhong Qiaoxi opened her eyes wide, "Yes! I touched a small yellow flower..."
"The flower should be Wuyanjue. You touch the flower first and the grass behind, that's why it is like this." Ning Zhishui understood, "It is not difficult to treat the disease. You only need to buy a flower called ' The elixir of the Eliminating Mark Pill will do."
"Mark-Removing Pill, isn't that a medicine for removing scars?" Mrs. Zhong looked confused.
"Yes, that's the kind of medicine that can cure her illness."
Things in the world are so magical. Three things that seem incomprehensible are actually related.
If you ask why, there is no reason.
As long as you cover it widely enough, you will know.
No wonder Zhong Qiaoqian was never cured in her previous life. Even for alchemy masters, there are too few people who know this cold knowledge, and it will be difficult for anyone to decipher it in a short time.
"Quick, go buy the Mark Eliminating Pill. This kind of pill shouldn't be difficult to buy." Mrs. Zhong said excitedly, "I'm here with Sissi, and you all go buy the medicine."
There are also many shops here in Xiaochiyangtan, selling all kinds of elixirs. The trace-erasing elixir is not an unpopular medicine, you can buy it here.
"Okay, Qiao Nan, let's go quickly." Mr. Zhong and Zhong Qiaonan left in a hurry.
Mrs. Zhong wanted to help her daughter sit down, and Ning Zhishui also helped her. (End of chapter)
