Chapter 221 Old urchin

"Let's go."

After wiping off the blood on his face, Long Peng took Cheng Lingsu to the pharmacy with his usual expression.

along the way.

Cheng Lingsu's eyes never moved away from him, and he hesitated to speak several times.

Finally, when she reached the door of the pharmacy, she stopped and took his broad and thick palm.

Long Peng looked at her suspiciously, and said softly, "What's wrong?"

Cheng Lingsu took a deep breath, and said slowly and firmly, "Human energy is limited, you can't grasp everything in your hands, besides, you are just recovering from a serious illness, you should pay more attention to self-cultivation, and you should not overthink and work hard. bother."

Cheng Lingsu has said this before, but he has never taken it so seriously.

Long Peng understood that she was worried about him, so he smiled slightly. Immediately, he seemed to realize something, his eyes tightened, and he asked, "Is there something wrong with my body?"

Cheng Lingsu took a deep look at Long Peng, nodded first, then shook his head. Seeing that there was no one else here, he said, "There is a saying that love will never last, and wisdom will hurt you. hour……"

Cheng Lingsu paused, recalling Long Peng's scars all over his body, with a complicated expression on his face.

"When you were young, you were injured constantly. Although you have recovered later, you have already buried hidden dangers. In addition, you have just recovered from a serious illness, and you don't take care of your body. Those old diseases and hidden injuries may also appear, but this is also true. It's not all bad."

Cheng Lingsu changed the topic, his eyes brightened slightly, and he looked very confident.

"It's better to come out now than to have an outbreak when your qi and blood are declining in your later years. As long as you listen to me, you can take care of yourself, and within three years, you will be back to your peak."

"..."

Long Peng was silent for a while, a smile appeared on his pale face, he rubbed the little girl's messy bun with his broad palm, nodded slightly, and his lips sank to her ear, "Listen to you?"

Cheng Lingsu suddenly felt a gust of hot wind blowing from the back of his neck, which was crispy and numb, and his pointed ears burst red immediately, and he was very angry.

"You... you... I'm telling you something serious."

"Ha ha……"

Long Peng smiled, but didn't say anything else. He took her shoulders and walked into the pharmacy. As soon as he entered, he saw the busy Tianzhu monk. He didn't even notice that someone came in, as if he was immersed in his own in the same world.

"Mr. Long, Miss Cheng..."

Master Yideng greeted him with a smile, and when he saw Long Peng's face, he was slightly shocked, the smile on his face faded, and he was a little surprised, "Mr. Long, when did you get injured?"

"Master, you're worrying too much, I'm fine."

Long Peng smiled and waved his hands, but he couldn't help but feel a little strange when he looked around but couldn't see the little dragon girl.

"Master, where is my senior sister?"

Seeing Long Peng's pale face, Master Yideng hesitated to speak, sighed softly, and replied after hearing his question, "Not long ago, Mrs. Guo came, Miss Long should be talking to Mrs. Guo now." together."

Master Yideng was silent for a while, and then said, "Actually, according to the old monk's judgment, Miss Long will be fine in a short time after taking jade bee jelly and Hantian white fish, but you, Mr. Long, look so bad, I'm just checking to die. I've seen it on the person who made me worry..."

"It's so bad..."

Hearing this, Long Peng touched Bing Bing's cool cheek suspiciously, and looked sideways at Cheng Lingsu. She nodded without hesitation, and added, "Pale."

"Ah……"

Long Peng smiled, and was about to speak, when his ears moved slightly, he heard footsteps approaching from far away, turned his head, and saw the little dragon girl in plain clothes, when she saw Long Peng, her footsteps paused, Look puzzled.

"Junior Brother, why...why is your face so pale?"

"The blood is deficient, and the complexion is not good. It will be fine after I take care of it for a while."

heard.

Xiao Longnv nodded, she didn't suspect anything, she just said seriously, "Miss Cheng is very good at medicine, you have to listen to her and take good care of your body."

The corner of Long Peng's mouth twitched, he rolled his eyes, and said angrily, "You'd better take care of yourself."

Xiao Longnv pursed her lower lip, and was not angry at Long Peng's harsh tone. She looked at Cheng Lingsu and remained silent for a while, "In the future, I will trouble Miss Cheng to take care of my junior brother."

Cheng Lingsu went forward, nodded and said, "I know."

"Okay, okay, it's like last words?"

Long Peng interrupted the two of them, stared at Xiao Longnu, and said word by word, "I said before, you can't die if I'm here."

After finishing speaking, the serious expression on his face melted instantly, he yawned, looked up at the setting sun outside the window, raised his hand, asked someone to bring the food, and then lay lazily on the grand teacher's chair, half-closed his eyes, Looking listless.

"Senior sister, what did Huang Rong tell you earlier?"

Xiao Longnv was startled slightly, hesitated for a while, and said, "Mrs. Guo just asked some things about you, and also, asked me how my son is doing."

"That's all, no more?"

"That's all, nothing more."

"Fine……"

Long Peng nodded slightly, and asked again, "Then how did you tell Huang Rong?"

Xiao Longnv thought for a while and replied, "Tell me the truth."

heard.

The corner of Long Peng's mouth twitched, but he didn't say anything, he just asked Xiao Longnv to come over, sat next to him, and put his fingers on the veins of her wrist, and began to make a diagnosis quietly.

Xiao Longnv waited patiently for a while, then said softly and softly, "The jade bee jelly you mentioned, and the white fish in the cold lake, I think it is really effective."

He glanced at her peerless face.

Long Peng opened his hands lightly, took a sip of tea, and said lightly, "That means the effect of the Great Repayment Pill is still there, and we will not know whether it is effective until the effect of the drug wears off."

"Amitabha……"

Master Yideng clasped his hands together, and said slowly, "No matter what Mr. Long said, you can only see the true knowledge when the effect of the Great Returning Pill wears off."

Xiao Longnv nodded slightly, she understood, she pursed her lips, and asked, "Junior brother, do you know where he has been, I haven't seen him today."

'Of course I went to the cold pool to catch fish for you, the water is so cold, I don't want to go down again. '

Long Peng complained in his heart, but his face was quite calm, "Don't worry, the man surnamed Yang is fine, but people are staring at him, I guess he will be back later."

Xiao Longnu was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Thank you."

"You are polite now."

Long Peng replied bluntly, feeling a little uncomfortable after all.

Xiao Longnu fell silent, she hesitated for a while, and asked, "Did you never like it?"

"Why do I like a man?"

Long Peng rolled his eyes, turned his eyes to Cheng Lingsu who was preparing the prescription not far away, and said in a more relaxed tone, "The person I like is still preparing the antidote for you. If it's someone else, I don't care if he lives or dies. Have fun..."

heard.

The corners of Xiao Longnv's lips were raised, revealing a smile, but she didn't see any anger. She stretched out her slender hand, stroked Long Peng's waist-length gray hair, and said softly, "I know, you want to protect mine……"

Long Peng's expression was slightly stiff, and he brushed off her hand awkwardly, "The meal is here, let's eat first."

After speaking, he stood up and called the people in the house to eat in the courtyard outside.

Xiao Longnv looked at his back and smiled, but there was a hint of melancholy in her eyes. She lowered her head and looked at her slender and flawless palms, and said softly, "I still don't want to die..."

"Dragon."

A gentle shout with a little joy sounded.

Xiao Longnv was stunned for a moment, looked sideways to where the sound came from, and saw Yang Guo, who was carrying an epee and his right arm was empty, walked into the room, with a wanton smile on his face, he took her palm.

"Let's go, let's go eat together, by the way, I'll bring someone here."

"who?"

"Your friend."

"my friend……"

Xiao Longnv's thoughts began to flow, she was born in a very young age, she didn't have many friends, if she really wanted to talk about friends, she would only have...

"Little Dragon Girl, Little Dragon Girl, Little Dragon Girl..."

Cheers and jumps sounded.

Seeing a white shadow flashing, an old urchin with white hair and childlike face, tattered clothes but clean and dust-free, ran to Xiaolongnv's side.

——Zhou Botong.

"Zhou Botong, it's you, didn't you say you were going to Xiangyang? Why are you back?"

Xiao Longnu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled.

"It's me! It's me."

The old naughty boy patted his chest twice, then the dog looked left and right, moved closer, and whispered, "Little Dragon Girl, these Sun Moon God Sect people didn't make things difficult for you and Xiao Huangrong, did they? I heard that Sun Moon That Da Keqing from the God Sect is a ruthless person, and he has a grudge against your Ancient Tomb Sect."

Xiao Longnv also understood the purpose of the old urchin, she shook her head, "They didn't make things difficult for me, but..."

"But what?" Zhou Botong asked anxiously.

Xiao Longnv raised her eyes and glanced at the dragon pendant in the courtyard, hesitated and said, "However, Mrs. Guo and the others want to go back to Xiangyang."

heard.

Zhou Botong looked around, "Little Dragon Girl, you lead the way, let's go through the back door and quickly rescue Xiao Huangrong and the others."

"This……"

Xiao Longnu hesitated.

"Senior Zhou came to visit and didn't say hello in advance. Long Mou is being rude..."

Accompanied by the sound of exclamation, a lonely and cold figure suddenly appeared at the door. His face was as white as paper, and it was like winter ice and snow. Stationed.

Zhou Botong was shocked, his scalp went numb, and he hid under the little dragon girl, "Hey, boy, are you a human or a ghost? Why is there no sound when you walk?"

"Ah……"

Long Peng chuckled, "Senior Zhou, Long has a good lightness kung fu, it's normal if you don't notice it."

"Really?"

Zhou Botong scratched his head suspiciously, his eyes lit up, and he asked, "Oh, are you the apprentice of my nephew Wang Chuyi, Lin Zhixuan?"

The smile on Long Peng's face froze for a moment, and he nodded slightly, "That's right, but now, Long is not a Quanzhen Sect disciple..."

"What do you mean? Well, never mind, it has nothing to do with me anyway..."

Zhou Botong shook his head carelessly, looked Long Peng up and down, and kept clicking his lips.

"Boy, your face is pale, your lips are bloodless, your eyes are dark, and you have lost a bit of energy. There is a smell of medicine on your body, maybe you are seriously injured?"

"Senior Zhou's words are well-founded, and he is worthy of being a senior."

"Where is it, it's just so-so..."

Zhou Botong was quite happy to be praised so much, he raised a smile on his face, and waved his hands again and again. Immediately afterwards, he suddenly realized something and slapped his forehead.

"Almost forgot the business."

"Boy, you are seriously injured now. You must not be my old urchin's opponent. How about this? If you let Xiao Longnv and Xiao Huang Rong go, I won't make things difficult for you, how about it?"

Say it, Zhou Botong folded his arms and said confidently.

"Senior Zhou is really... amazing..."

Long Peng gave him a thumbs up, and then his face turned cold, "However, Senior Zhou seems to have thought about something wrong."

"what's up?"

Zhou Botong had a question mark on his face.

"If you haven't fought, how will you know who will win?"

Zhou Botong was taken aback for a moment, but when he understood, he laughed a few times, and at the same time, he slapped Long Peng's face and grabbed it.

"Zhou Botong..."

Xiao Longnu was startled, and hurriedly tried to stop her, but she saw Zhou Botong slapped her palm and stopped abruptly. Then, like a ghost, he jumped back three times and said in surprise, "Master Duan?"

"Amitabha, Lord Zhou..."

Master Yideng clasped his hands together and walked forward slowly.

"Don't, don't come here..."

Zhou Botong looked terrified, mixed with a bit of shame, turned around and ran away without the slightest hesitation, shouting in his mouth:
"Little Dragon Girl, don't worry, I will rescue you..."

After finishing speaking, he was nowhere to be seen.

The corner of Yang Guo's mouth twitched: This old naughty boy is really unreliable...

At this time.

The sound of orderly footsteps resounded outside the courtyard, and disciples of the Divine Cult appeared one after another holding torches, dispelling the night here.

"Your Excellency!"

Jin Feng rushed in quickly and said respectfully, "The three hundred guards have all been transferred here."

"Ah."

Long Peng nodded slightly, with no expression on his face.

Yang Guo looked around, found the cold light lurking in the dark, but he was horrified, thinking that if Zhou Botong hadn't escaped immediately, he might be destined to be a prisoner.

"My dear guest, here..."

"People ran away."

Jin Feng was startled, and hastily knelt down, "This subordinate is not doing well, please forgive me, and give this subordinate another chance, and this subordinate will definitely capture that old naughty boy!"

"Forget it, no wonder you, get up..."

Long Peng shook his head, he was quite sensible, knowing that it was not easy for Jinfeng to summon people here in such a short time, he was silent for a moment, looked sideways at the white-browed monk whose eyes seemed to be closed, and said with a smile, " Master Yideng has a keen ear."

Master Yideng smiled slightly and did not refute.

"Amitabha, the enemy is easy to solve but not easy to solve. Why does Mr. Long go to war?"

"Heh... What the master said is that Long has been taught."

Long Peng smiled, dispersed the people, then looked at a table of food in the courtyard, and said with a smile, "Everyone, if you really don't eat, the food will be cold."

"Amitabha……"

Master Yideng chanted the Buddha's name a few times, and took his seat first.
