After rushing into the yard, Qin Mian saw several people standing outside the door of his sister Qin Zhi's house - three cousins, two cousins, one cousin, and four elders, all of whom were the more talented disciples of the family. .
He squeezed through several people to the door and saw his sister lying on the bed. His ancestor was sitting on the left side of the bed, grabbing her left hand and saying with a livid face, "This is too much!"
Qin Mian squeezed into the room and came to the right side of the bed. He saw his sister's eyes were slightly closed, her face was pale, and there was blood on the corners of her mouth. He grabbed her hand tightly and asked in a trembling voice, "Sister, who did this?"
Qin Zhi opened her eyes, her painful expression disappeared in an instant, and she tried her best to squeeze out a smile and said softly, "No one hit me. I haven't competed. I'm injured. It'll be fine after a while. It's okay."
Qin Mian had already heard his ancestor's words at the door and knew that he didn't want to worry him, but he knew that the matter was not that simple. He bowed to him and asked, "Ancestor, how is my sister?"
The ancestor glanced at him with complicated eyes, "The Xuan Palace is damaged and needs the Heaven-Repairing Pill. The sect doesn't have it, and Daishun Continent doesn't have it either. You have to go to Zhongzhou to buy it."
Qin Mian quickly bowed to his ancestor and said, "Please help me, ancestor. My sister and I will pay back the necessary yuan stones in the future."
He didn't think about anything else but to repair his sister's Xuan Palace, and only the ancestor could realize this wish.
Cousin Qin Fang at the door looked unhappy, "Brother Mian, I heard that the Heaven-Building Pill costs at least 200,000 high-grade yuan stones, and our family's total wealth is only that much. If we all use it to buy the Heaven-Building Pill, others Do you want to live or practice? Besides, can you afford to pay back so many multi-stones?"
After hearing this data, Qin Mian slowly turned his stiff neck and looked at the ancestor blankly, "Ancestor, do you really want so much?"
Although he made elixirs, he really didn't know the price of the elixirs.
When he is in the late stage of Tongqiao Realm, his sect distributes 10 low-grade Yuan Stones every month; when Li Kan is in the early stage of Houtian Realm, he only gets 120 low-grade Yuan Stones every month; his sister Qin Zhi is a genius in the late stage of Xiantian Realm, and only gets 20 middle-grade Yuan Stones every month. Yuan Stone; and as an ancestor of the Nascent Soul Realm, I heard that there are only 50 high-grade Yuan Stones and 10,000 mid-grade Yuan Stones every month.
One high-grade Yuan Stone can be easily exchanged for 100 middle-grade Yuan Stones, and one medium-grade Yuan Stone can be exchanged for 100 low-grade Yuan Stones. However, 100 middle-grade Yuan Stones may not necessarily be exchanged for one high-grade Yuan Stone, nor can 100 low-grade Yuan Stones. It may not be possible to exchange for a high-grade Yuan Stone. Without it, the purity is different, the energy is different, and those who are not short of Yuanshi or at critical moments prefer to use higher-level ones.
200,000 high-grade Yuan Stones means 2 billion low-grade Yuan Stones; in the south, high-grade Yuan Stones are very rare, and only in the central Taiwu Continent are there more.
Therefore, this data really shocked him.
The ancestor did not look at him or respond.
Qin Mian was unable to improve his skills due to a lightning strike. He also came to check and found no clues. Now Qin Zhi's problem is obvious. It is purely due to being violently attacked and causing damage to the Xuan Palace. If not treated in time, it will cause A situation in which one's skills cannot make any progress or even regress.
Three years later, Qin Mian was still in the late stage of Tongqiao Realm, and he had almost given up. Now Qin Zhi is in this situation again, and another genius in the family is being destroyed. Is the Qin family really going to decline?
The Heaven-Building Pill can indeed save Qin Zhi, but how can the family have so many multi-stones?
The ancestor did not respond immediately. Qin Zhi's eyes darkened and she squeezed Qin Mian's hand, "Brother, Xuanfu can heal itself. I don't need that. I am only 35 years old now, and I will only be 65 years old in 30 years. I am still ahead. Most of the sect.”
Qin Mian did not respond, but looked at the ancestor steadily, "Ancestor, can you think of a way?"
Qin Mian knew that the Xuanfu's self-healing was just a dream, and the probability was not one in ten million.
Even if he could heal himself, it would still take 30 years; if he could buy back the Tianbu Dan, there would be no need to spend 30 years. At the age of 35, he may be in the late stage of the Xiantian realm, and at the age of 65, he may be in the late stage of the mortal realm or even set foot in the Nascent Soul realm.
The ancestor stood up slowly, "Qin Zhi's Xuan Mansion is severely damaged, and a Sky-Building Pill may not be able to cure it. 200,000 is not a small amount, and the family cannot afford it."
No matter how much he thought about it, Qin Mian also heard that the ancestor's implication was that he could only give up.
Just when he was about to beg again, his cousin Qin Bo said sharply, "Brother Mian, you are learning alchemy. With your ability, you should be able to advance to the rank of great alchemist soon. When the time comes, you can buy the medicinal materials yourself, and the price will be much lower."
Cousin Qin Fangqi immediately agreed, "If you refine it yourself, I estimate that the price of each stone is less than 50,000 high-grade Yuan stones. You are an alchemist, so you should know better than us in this regard. However, if you feel that there is not much hope of becoming Great alchemist, then don’t learn alchemy. The reason why your sister is like this is purely to help you find medicinal materials and bet with others."
He looked at them, his eyes suddenly cold.
I just heard about the Heaven-Building Pill. Not to mention that there is no pill recipe, but with the current level of pill refining, do you want to destroy my sister?
Seeing the ferocious look on Qin Mian's face, Qin Zhi's eyes showed pleading, "Ancestor, I'm a little tired."
The ancestor glanced at her and said, "Qin Zhi, you should cultivate yourself well. Don't expect the Tian Mending Pill yet. Let me see if there is any other way."
200,000 high-grade Yuanshi was a stifling amount, but the family needed a genius, and he couldn't chill the genius' heart, so he had to give her hope.
He turned and walked to the door and said to several people, "If you are not talented enough, you have to work harder. Now that Qin Zhi is like this, the glory of the family falls on you. I hope you will not lose the family reputation."
After a pause, he said coldly, "If our Qin family can survive well, it cannot do without the efforts of each of your family members."
Several people looked embarrassed.
Cousin Qin Wu walked at the end and said to Qin Zhi in the room, "Zhimei, you are the genius of our Qin family. I believe you will recover."
Qin Wu was also in the Xiantian realm, but it was only in the early stages, and he was more than ten years older than Qin Zhi.
After they left and closed the door, Qin Mian woke up from despair and anger. He ran to close the door and then came to Qin Zhi's bedside. He grabbed her hand and asked, "Sister, who are you competing with?"
Qin Zhi forced a smile, "It's a normal fight, but I missed."
She didn't want to go into details because this opponent was beyond her brother's reach now.
Seeing tears streaming from the corners of Qin Mian's eyes, she stretched out her hand to wipe them away, shouting helplessly in her heart, "Dad, Mom, when will you come back? I don't know how to hold on anymore."
Qin Mian, like his ancestor, advanced to the Aperture Realm at the age of 10, which caused a sensation in the family and the sect. For this reason, his ancestor met with their family in person and gave them a lot of cultivation resources.
His father, Qin Jiyuan, and his mother, Zhong Yihan, were also geniuses in the sect. When they saw him advance and their ancestors were ecstatic about it, they had not made any progress in the past 20 years, so they took the opportunity to ask their ancestors to allow them to travel. With permission, they placed him in her care. When they left, they were in the late and early stages of the transcendent realm respectively.
According to their theory, their daughter is a genius, and their son is a genius like his ancestor. In the Qin family, he will receive extraordinary attention from now on, and he will enjoy the highest level of disciple treatment, as long as she takes a little care of him.
But she didn't expect that he was hit by lightning at the age of 12. Although he survived, his skills had not improved in more than three years. She herself has become like this now. Finally, she couldn't bear it any more. She collapsed and really wanted them to come back.
She took out three books and handed them to him, "You read these books first, and return the first three together when the time comes."
After he turned 12 years old, Qin Mian began to invite Qin Zhi to borrow books from the sect. He read all kinds of books, basically one book every two days.
Qin Mian took the book and wanted to cry, but tried hard to restrain it, but he still couldn't help the tears flowing.
After he was struck by lightning and woke up, his sister held him and cried for a long time. He didn't cry at that time and was still in a state of confusion.
Later, for a year, his skills failed to improve, and he was very unconvinced. He kept practicing hard and reading books, and had no time to feel sad. Later, he "accepted" the reality and started to learn alchemy. Gradually, various discussions, ridicules, and humiliations began to appear. He was furious and depressed, but later he slowly accepted it.
But he couldn't accept his sister's behavior. He couldn't forget her anxiety after her skills didn't make any progress, and he couldn't forget the expectation deep in her eyes every time she gave him medicine; especially this time, her future might be ruined, and it was because of himself...
Qin Mian kept crying, and Qin Zhi kept helping him wipe it away. As she wiped it, her tears flowed out, and soon they were also flowing.
It all starts from sadness.
The younger brother has not made any progress in three years, his Xuanfu has been injured, and he has fallen from a genius to an ordinary person, maybe even a mortal.
Seeing her sister's tears flowing, Qin Mian panicked and quickly reached out to help her wipe them.
Both siblings wiped each other's tears, and Qin Zhi cried loudly while wiping them.
Qin Mian quickly sat down on the bed, held her head in his arms, and said while choking, "Sister, your Xuanfu can be cured."
He didn't think about anything else but one belief, that he wanted his sister's Xuanfu to be cured, and he believed that he could be cured.
Qin Zhi didn't respond, she just hugged Qin Mian's waist and cried loudly.
She knew it was her brother comforting her. 200,000 high-grade Yuan Stones was an unattainable and desperate amount. Although the ancestor said she would think of other ways, she knew that there was no other way.
Her brother is already like this, and she is like this now. She is helpless, she is desperate...
"Dong dong dong"
Someone was knocking on the door outside. Qin Zhi let go of her hands and wiped her tears. Her crying soon turned into sobs. She raised her head and looked at Qin Mian, "Brother, go and see who it is."
Seeing a large wet spot in front of Qin Mian, she said sheepishly, "Change some clothes first."
Qin Mian looked down, wiped away his tears, took out a piece of clothing from the storage ring and put it on. When he came to the door, he asked in a deep voice, "Who is it?"
The tone is not very good.
"Qin Mian, it's me, come to see my sister."
It's Boogie, a guy who talks a lot.
Buji is one year older than him and is currently in the early stage of the Chongtian realm. When Qin Mian entered the late stage of the Tongqiao realm, he had just opened up and often played together. Later, Qin Mian was struck by lightning, and he continued to advance, but he still came to see him occasionally.
Qin Mian said calmly, "Buji, my sister is in a bad mood now. Let's talk about it later."
Although the relationship is not bad, at this time, he still doesn't want irrelevant people to disturb his sister.
Buji said outside the gate, "Qin Mian, I know that some medicinal materials are good for warming and nourishing the meridians, and may also be good for repairing the Xuanfu."
Qin Mian also knew a lot about such medicinal materials, but because the situation changed so quickly, he had not had time to think about it. After hearing what he said, Qin Mian walked towards the door.
As long as there is information about medicinal materials that are good for healing Xuanfu, he will not refuse, because it is related to the process of repairing his sister's Xuanfu.
Before the door was fully opened, Buji immediately squeezed in, turned around and closed the door. He usually talked a lot and leaned against the door and whispered solemnly, "Qin Mian, Sister Qin fell into someone's trap this time."
Seeing Qin Mian's confused face, he said softly, "The bet with Sister Qin this time is poison. He was originally in the late stage of the Xiantian realm, but he didn't expect that this time when he came out of seclusion, he actually reached the late stage of perfection, and his marksmanship also improved." He took a step forward. Sister Qin had already said she would admit defeat, but he still attacked her Xuan Palace instantly."
Qin Mian instantly understood why his sister was so seriously injured.
In view of the close ranking of the ancestors of the two families, the two families have always been in a competitive relationship, but I didn't expect that he would be so vicious and even want to destroy his sister.
Qin Mian couldn't help but clenched his fists, blood rushed to his head, his temples were bulging, his face was ferocious, and he roared in his heart, "Du Dai, I swear I won't be a human unless I kill you!"
