What's wrong? "
Seeing Chu Ming staring at the snow pear in his hand, An Muxi hurriedly took it away and sensed it with her spiritual consciousness. She didn't find any special spiritual power fluctuations attached to it and then returned it.
“Eatable”
"..."
Chu Ming took a bite in silence, and the sweet pulp turned into spiritual power that instantly filled his mouth. It was even richer than what he had guessed was thirty years old.
Even forty years is possible!
Isn't this too outrageous?
Chu Ming took another look at Hua Xiaoying in front of him. She was dressed in shabby linen clothes and timidly lowered her eyelids and clenched her hands in front of her chest.
It's less of a girl's unique innocence and more of a mature and strong character.
Chu Ming thought for a moment and then smiled softly.
"Xiaoying, can you let me see your father-in-law?"
Hearing this, Hua Xiaoying raised her head and nodded, then led Chu Ming to the innermost bedroom.
On a dilapidated thatched bed, a fifty-year-old woman was sleeping quietly under a quilt, but her breathing was slightly rapid, and there was a faint chill between her slightly furrowed brows, which was clearly due to the cold wind that had been blowing for many days.
If it is not treated, I am afraid that I will die in a day or two.
Hua Xiaoying's face was full of worry. She was about to wake up her mother, but was suddenly stopped by Chu Ming and shook her head gently.
“No need to wake up”
After saying that, he came to the bedside and picked up the woman's left hand to feel the pulse.
It is said to be taking the pulse, but in fact it is to transfer the gentle wood spirit power in the body to the opponent's limbs and bones through the wrist, dispelling the cold air in the body.
The technique is very simple, but it requires a high degree of control of spiritual power, but this is not difficult for Chu Ming, whose spiritual sea is far wider than ordinary people.
This continued for about a few minutes, and the woman's brows relaxed and her breathing became gentle and steady.
Upon seeing this, Hua Xiaoying first sat by the bed and touched her mother's head. Her eyes widened in surprise when she found that her high fever had miraculously subsided.
"..."
After quietly looking at her mother's sleeping face for a few minutes, Hua Xiaoying covered her with a quilt, and then slowly turned around. The tears that had gathered in her eyes burst out instantly. Her body went limp and she was about to kneel down, but was stopped by Chu Ming. Hold on.
"It's not necessary, it's just a matter of effort."
"Brother Chu Ming, I really don't know how to thank you."
While sobbing, Hua Xiaoying tremblingly handed out the rice paper in her hand, which was still dripping with her warm tears. This charming appearance coupled with her big eyes full of tears really made Chu Ming feel a little bit confused. He scratched his head sheepishly.
To him, this was just a trivial matter, but to Hua Xiaoying, it didn't seem to be the case.
As a result, no matter how much Chu Ming said that she did not need to repay her, Hua Xiaoying still stubbornly held his hand and stared at him with eyes red and swollen from crying, as if she would not give up until she achieved her goal.
However, because of her naturally charming body, her cheeks began to blush slightly involuntarily, her mouth opened slightly and she kept panting. The love in her eyes gradually condensed, and she even began to take the initiative to put Chu Ming's hand close to her cheek...
broken!
Seeing this, Chu Ming hurriedly distanced himself from Hua Xiaoying and smiled helplessly.
"Okay, can you take me to see the plants you planted?"
Hua Xiaoying's body trembled suddenly as if she was awakened from a dream, she blinked her eyes and tilted her head, as if she was thinking about the meaning of Chu Ming's words.
After a while, she pulled Chu Ming's sleeves and came to the backyard, while An Muxi followed the two of them with an indifferent expression, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of resentment flashed in them.
Why does Chu Ming always like to provoke some girls!
So annoying!
No, why should I be bothered?
An Muxi pouted displeasedly and played with her ponytail depressedly.
Chu Ming, on the other hand, didn't notice the strange look on her expression. He stared blankly at the lush medicinal materials in the field, his face full of disbelief.
"This is actually a fifty-year-old Golden Yang Spirit Stem?"
"Wait! A hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum? Real or fake!"
"What the hell? Bingxuan flower? Isn't this thing planted in the water? What the hell is one popping out of the ground?"
"..."
Chu Ming looked around in the field in surprise, touching it from time to time, feeling extremely shocked.
Obviously, none of these things are "normal."
Not only does it last longer, but its quality is also much higher than the elixir materials on the market!
"How on earth is this done?"
Seemingly seeing through Chu Ming's doubts, Hua Xiaoying walked to her side, tugged at the corners of his clothes, and held up the rice paper.
"Brother Chu Ming, there is something strange that I have been wondering about for a long time."
"I found that the things I planted were much better than those planted by others. I didn't even learn the farming skills. These plants grew exceptionally lush."
"..."
After seeing this paragraph of text, Chu Ming was stunned. He held his chin and fell into deep thought.
This phenomenon of rapid growth of plants should be related to Hua Xiaoying's physique... Could it be the reincarnation of the Flower God?
Maybe it’s possible!
In this world of cultivating immortals, nothing is surprising.
"So brother Chu Ming, do you know the reason?"
Seeing Hua Xiaoying's cute look with her head tilted, Chu Ming's eyes suddenly lit up, and then the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise slightly.
He squatted down with a smile on his face, looking like a bad uncle who lured children.
"I don't know about this, but then again, Xiaoying, you just said you wanted to repay me, right?"
Hua Xiaoying nodded sharply without thinking, and An Muxi on the side also cast a confused look at Chu Ming.
What is he going to do?
"Then have you ever thought about moving somewhere else?"
"?"
Seeing Hua Xiaoying's confused expression, Chu Ming showed her the badge of the deacon of the Holy Pill Hall.
"The deacons of the Holy Pill Hall will be rewarded with a small piece of land, which can be used to sow various natural materials and treasures, saving time on buying and selling."
"And in order not to delay daily practice and alchemy, I usually recruit handymen and servants to help me farm the land."
"So, brother Chu Ming, do you want me to be your maid?"
Maid?
"No no no..."
Before Chu Ming could explain clearly, Hua Xiaoying excitedly raised the rice paper again, her face filled with anticipation.
"I am willing to be your maid, help you take care of your fields and serve in your daily life!"
Hua Xiaoying knew that if the handymen at Zaoyi Peak wanted to break away from their identities, they would have to work hard to break through the realm, so as to obtain the qualifications of official disciples of Tianyan Sect's outer sect.
Of course, for some people without talent, this road is almost sealed.
After all, the requirement of the second level of Qi Refining can block a large number of people, let alone the chasm of low-grade spiritual roots.
Therefore, another path was born.
Hug your thighs!
By gaining the favor of some elders and deacons of the Tianyan Sect and becoming their servants, you can obtain a generous living environment and remuneration, and you may even be rewarded with some cultivation resources!
Perhaps these things may be looked down upon by others, but for handymen, they may be an excellent opportunity to rise to prominence!
Therefore, before Chu Ming even fully stated his request, Hua Xiaoying became extremely excited and happy.
"Brother Chu Ming, I am willing to serve you for the rest of my life!"
