Games with fairies.

Chapter 39 The question you didn’t ask

Under the dim candlelight of the oil lamp, Li Muyang glanced at the cheap sister on the bed and said.

"I'll just make the floor. Doctor Lin said your injury needs to be rested and you can't move around easily. The demonic energy in your body will continue to corrode your body."

"It's just starting now, and you're going to feel more and more uncomfortable over the next few days."

"I'll go to Yunxiao City again tomorrow. How much money do you have left now? Give it all to me, and I'll buy you some elixir."

"And where did Dad and his friend agree to meet? There are only three days until the mountain gate closes, so it's almost time to arrive."

"I will get the elixir back then and refine it to heal your injuries."

Li Muyang made simple arrangements for the next few days.

The girl huddled in the quilt shrank her neck and said cautiously.

"Um...brother, are you not angry? I have used up all your money..."

Thirty-five taels...

It was only twenty taels for myself, but thirty-five taels for this cheap sister.

Twenty taels of gold is not a small amount of money for anyone in Jiuyuan City.

Li Muyang was stunned for a moment when he heard the amount the girl said.

Li Muyang glared at her and said: "Then I will write you an IOU. This money will be lent to me. You will pay me back when you make money in the future."

Li Muyang lay on it and rolled around twice, still a little uncomfortable.

In this way, if Li Muyang runs out of money in the Demon Sect, the cheap sister can still use it to help him.

Doctor Lin said that once the evil energy remaining in the body begins to corrode the body, various complications will occur. Such as high fever, lethargy, and increasingly stronger stinging pain... This little girl's best days are still ahead!
  After laying the floor, Li Muyang blew out the oil lamp and lay down in the corner of the room.

Who is the biological child?
  Li Muyang was speechless for a moment.

If it were the previous brother, he would definitely be reluctant to spend this money on her...

"When I went out this time, my aunt gave me thirty-five taels of gold. I converted all of it into gold tickets and hid it."

"It's hidden in a book I carry with me. Brother, you can find it by searching in my house tomorrow."

Li Yuechan quickly explained: "When I went out, my aunt said that she asked me to bring more with me. If brother, uh... if you don't have enough money, let me give it to you."

It seems that the former good-for-nothing was always throwing money at Ning Wan'er, which made the mother at home worried, so she took part of the gold and put it on her adopted daughter.

The hard loess floor was colder and stiffer than the hard bed board.

Li Muyang shook his head and said: "I understand, go to sleep. Get some rest early, you won't be so leisurely tomorrow."

The girl looked at Li Muyang guiltily and carefully observed Li Muyang's expression.

Tsk... The original person is such a licking dog, it really makes people worry.

Li Yuechan suddenly became sullen and noticed Li Muyang's displeasure, so she quickly skipped the topic.

"How many?"

The girl's answer made Li Muyang understand.

But on the bed in the darkness, the girl suddenly spoke, her tone cautious.

"Um...brother, can I ask you a question?"

Li Muyang glanced at the bed in the darkness. In the dim light, he could vaguely see a pair of watery eyes on the bed watching him in the darkness.

Seems very serious.

"What's the problem?" Li Muyang asked with a frown.

Why is this little girl so weird?

There was silence for a long time in the darkness, but the girl on the bed exhaled suddenly and covered her head with the quilt.

"It's nothing. Brother, please go to bed early. I'm going to bed too."

Soon, the girl's even breathing sounded on the bed, and she seemed to be asleep.

Li Muyang didn't bother to ask more questions. Girls of this age might be like this, inexplicably. He closed his eyes and tried to lull himself to sleep.

Because of the interruption caused by the cheap sister, Li Muyang couldn't eat spiritual rice or play games tonight.

You can't cook with top-grade spiritual rice in front of her...

Fortunately, Li Muyang had already dug a secret cellar in the tile-roofed house and hid the spiritual rice jar inside. Even if a thief came to the house, he would not worry about being stolen.

I don't know how long it took, but Li Muyang quickly fell asleep.

When she woke up the next morning, Li Yuechan's physical condition had indeed deteriorated a lot.

The girl's face turned even paler, and her body was shaking slightly. That was because the flesh and blood inside her body was corroded and she was enduring severe pain.

On her right shoulder, a faint dark red could be vaguely seen under the fair skin.

The entire right arm and half of the right face were also covered with this dim blood red.

If the situation continues to worsen, all flesh and blood with a dark red color will rot away.

At this time, Li Yuechan no longer had the weird spirit from last night.

She curled up weakly in the quilt, her body trembling, and said to Li Muyang.

"Brother...don't lift my quilt..."

The girl seemed to be unconscious from the pain and started talking nonsense.

Who will take off your quilt if you are so good?

Li Muyang couldn't help but sigh when he saw her like this.

Although I have no feelings for this cheap sister, I still can't help but feel sympathy when I see such a little girl suffering in front of my eyes.

Li Muyang sat by the bed and talked with her for a while. It wasn't until the girl's consciousness became clearer and the pain in her body temporarily subsided that Li Muyang got up and went out.

He came to Li Yuechan's hut at the foot of the mountain and found the gold ticket hidden in the book. Then he went to Yunxiao City and purchased elixir worth thirty-five taels of gold.

And luckily, he met the cheap daddy Li Damu's friend, who gave the elixir he brought to Li Muyang.

These elixirs were prepared by Li Damu to be used for the cultivation of the two brothers and sisters in the Demon Sect. Their value was much higher than Li Muyang expected.

But Li Muyang now brought them all back to the small tiled house and refined them all with the medicine refining cauldron.

When all the elixirs were successfully refined, a total of three bowls of medicinal liquid were produced.

Li Muyang carefully woke up the girl who was unconscious from the pain and asked her to take these three bowls of hot medicine.

After taking three bowls of medicine, about half of the black line on the girl's right wrist disappeared.

Most of the blood redness on her right cheek has disappeared, the blood redness on her shoulders has completely disappeared, and the blood redness on her arms is only down to the arm.

With the supplement of spiritual liquid and the removal of demonic energy, the girl finally felt less painful.

She woke up and looked at Li Muyang in front of her and the opened medicine boxes next to her.

Smelling the scent of medicine in the air, Li Yuechan blinked.

"Brother, where did you get so many elixirs..."

Li Muyang sighed: "I have refined all the elixirs sent from home, but unfortunately there is still a little bit left..."

The girl suddenly fell silent.

She looked at the pile of empty medicine boxes that were opened in the room, then at the black line on her wrist, and finally said.

"...Actually, don't worry about me. It's okay if the flesh and blood rot. In the future, I will practice to a higher level. If I am promoted to the inner sect, I might be able to find a way to regenerate the flesh and blood."

"Brother, you don't have to worry anymore, it's just an arm, it won't affect you."

The girl comforted Li Muyang in a low voice.

Li Muyang glanced at her with a calm expression.

"Do you look at me like I'm worried about you?"
