You cultivate immortality, I cultivate merit

Chapter 194 Medical Skills
Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan walked around the street, greeted the neighbors and walked back.

Aunt Liu stopped them as they walked past: "Xiaoliu, Xiaolan, you have guests again. Do you have enough firewood?"

"Aunt Liu, there is enough firewood."

Shi Zelan answered Aunt Liu cheerfully, and she and Shi Xiaoliu stopped to talk to Aunt Liu.

Aunt Liu asked curiously: "The new guests are also staying at your house?"

After Shi Xiaoliu nodded, Aunt Liu asked in surprise: "Will there be any more guests at your house?"

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan looked at each other, and Shi Zelan said with a smile: "We are sending letters home. I don't know if anyone will come to the capital next year."

"Have you two lost weight?"

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan shook their heads at the same time: "No, we just grew taller."

Shi Xiaoliu was actually surprised that he could still grow taller now, so he acted very happy.

Aunt Liu looked up at Shi Xiaoliu: "Xiaoliu has grown taller."

She lowered her head and looked at Shi Zelan: "Xiao Liu is so tall, Xiaolan will not be short in the future."

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan walked home. Shi Zelan whispered: "Xiao Liu, I don't think I'm short."

"Aren't you short? You can still grow taller. Do you want to eat meat to grow taller?"

Shi Zelan immediately shook his head: "No, I don't like meat."

The two entered the courtyard gate and went directly to the kitchen to boil water. Shi Zelan baked a few eggs by the way.

Shi Xiaoliu thought for a while and cooked another sweet soup for Shi Zelan.

Seeing this, Shi Zelan frowned and said, "Xiao Liu, you put too much sucrose, it will be a bit greasy."

After the sweet soup was cooked, Shi Xiaoliu placed the sweet soup directly in front of Shi Zelan: "After drinking it, you will grow taller in the future."

Shi Zelan laughed after hearing his words, and was moved by his feelings. She took the bowl and drank.

"It tastes good. Xiaoliu is now a great chef."

"Aren't you tired of it?"

"The taste is just right, just a little sweeter and it'll be over."

Shi Zelan finished the sweet soup and ate baked eggs with Shi Xiaoliu. They turned off the stove fire and were about to leave the kitchen when Wanyu came over.

Her nose twitched: "What delicious food did you eat?"

"A bowl of sweet soup, and baked eggs."

Shi Zelan replied with a smile, but Wanyu said disgustedly: "Why do you like to eat these things? I think Linghua is more delicious."

After listening to Wanyu's words, Shi Xiaoliu raised his eyes to look at her. At this moment, Wanyu's own light suddenly dimmed.

He looked at Wanyu carefully: "We can eat as much as we like, there are no spiritual flowers."

The two of them quickly left the kitchen. Wanyu stamped her feet behind them, and then snorted: "Stingy."

When Shi Zelan heard Wanyu's words, he looked at the expression on Shi Xiaoliu's face and said strangely: "Your attitude towards Wanyu has changed."

"It hasn't changed. It's just that you're too worried."

Shi Xiaoliu replied to Shi Zelan's words and looked at her and laughed. No wonder Shi Zelan always likes to say that it is not easy to get along with each other.

Shi Zelan reached out and touched his face: "Xiao Liu, is there dust on my face?"

Shi Xiaoliu said seriously: "You wipe off the ashes."

Shi Zelan wiped his face casually and said to Shi Xiaoliu: "I went into the room to meditate and practice. See you tomorrow."

Shi Zelan went back to his room, and Shi Xiaoliu went over and closed the courtyard door. When he was about to go back to his room, Wanyu called him.

"Xiao Liu, do you still have baked eggs?" Shi Xiaoliu shook his head: "No, the eggs must be freshly baked to be delicious."

After Shi Xiaoliu finished speaking, he walked to the room. Wanyu looked at him in surprise, forgetting what he wanted to say for a moment.

Shi Xiaoliu's door was closed, and Wanyu was stunned: "He didn't take the initiative to ask me if I wanted to eat freshly baked eggs this time."

Wanyu ran to Shi Zelan's door and reached out to push the door open, but was blocked by an invisible force.

Wanyu went to the backyard and saw Qi Jun sitting in the yard. She went over and whispered: "Master, how long will we stay in the capital?
Why don't we stay in an inn? "

"After the new year, we will go to Jiangnan.

Don't you want to come over and stay with Shi Zelan for some time? "

Master Qijun naturally knew that Wanyu borrowed Shi Zelan's name, and her original intention was to have a chance to get along with Xia Yu.

On the second day, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan walked out of the courtyard and walked south. They felt the joy of passers-by on the street.

"Old man Zhang, are you going to stop working today?"

"No, the boss said that we have to be busy for a few days and let us rest for a few more days."

"Your boss is kind enough not to disturb you anymore."

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were walking among the crowd, listening to the people walking around talking to each other about their plans for the New Year.

They followed the flow of people and walked to the tea house. When they entered the tea house and sat in the hall, they felt that there were not many people sitting in the hall.

The tea waiter came over to serve them tea. Shi Xiaoliu smiled and said, "There are not many people here today."

“As the New Year approaches, fewer people come to teahouses to drink tea.

Would you like to sit at the table near the storyteller later? There are few people here today, so the price of tea at that table will not be increased. "

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan immediately changed places. After the storyteller came on stage, they found that the location was indeed good, and they could clearly see the storyteller's excited expression.

After refilling the tea, Shi Xiaoliu asked the tea waiter to bring two pots of boiled beans.

The brother and sister listened to the story, ate boiled beans, and then left the teahouse.

Standing on the street and seeing the smiles on people's faces, Shi Xiaoliu said with a smile: "Life like this is so refreshing."

Shi Zelan agreed: "Xiao Liu, it's still early, let's take a walk on the street."

They passed by clothing shops, saw bakeries, and saw children begging on the street corners.

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan went into the bakery, bought two packs of plain cakes and gave them to the begging children.

They continued walking forward and reached a place with few people. Shi Xiaoliu sighed: "There are poor people in the capital as well."

Shi Zelan understood what Shi Xiaoliu meant. There were places where the sun could not reach.

They walked into the bookstore on the street and saw people reading in the bookstore. There were readers in brocade clothes and others in coarse clothes.

Shi Xiaoliu saw a pile of books in the corner of the bookstore. He walked over and picked up a book and started reading.

A scholar passed by him and reminded him in a low voice: "Little brother, you can't read this kind of book deeply, it will waste your good time."

Shi Xiaoliu put down the book. Thank you to the scholar: "Thank you, brother, for reminding me."

Shi Zelan picked two books at random and whispered to Shi Xiaoliu: "These two books are interesting."

Shi Xiaoliu shook his head at her, and the two of them bought books, bought pens, ink, paper and inkstones, and then walked home.

On the way, Shi Xiaoliu gave the scholar's advice: "In this way, if a scholar becomes an official in the future, he will definitely be able to protect the safety of the country."

Shi Zelan looked at the expression on Shi Xiaoliu's face and said with emotion: "Xiao Liu, if you don't practice cultivation, if you study hard, you will be able to shoulder the responsibility of protecting one side."

Shi Xiaoliu thought about it carefully and said to Shi Zelan: "Sister Lan, there is a high probability that I am still willing to study medicine with my heart."
