Chapter 7
After returning to the inn, it was after the moon moved the willow shoots, and the moonlight hit the door panel of the Xiaochangsheng inn, as white as milk.

After letting Wenshu hide in the small alley outside the inn, Yue Wenhan knocked on the door.After a while, the strip-shaped door panel creaked and opened.

Holding an oil lamp in his hand, Ye Shi met Wen Han, "How was the Li Fire Festival?"

"It's fun, but it's a pity that my mother and Shu'er didn't have a chance to go and have a look." Yue Wenhan was about to talk about what he saw at night, but remembering that Shu'er was still hiding in the alley, he had to find a way to sneak into the inn first. Waiting for mother to fall asleep, then secretly let Shu'er in.

The Li Huo Festival, which is held every four years, even the chef Liu and the shop assistants went to join in the fun. Yeshi said that he didn't want to smell the sweat of being crowded with others, so he stayed in the inn.

"What a good way to play, let me tell my mother," Ye Shi said with a friendly face, and didn't immediately let Yue Wenhan in.

Yue Wenhan rubbed his head, couldn't help but glanced at the alley, and faltered: "Actually, it's not very fun, the baby is sleepy, and I want to rest earlier."

"What stuff is stuffed in your chest?" Ye Shi reached out and took out the corner of the book exposed by Wenhan's skirt. After seeing the titles of those books, Ye Shi raised his eyebrows and pointed That "Strengthening Body Technique", "You should pay attention to this book, as for this one." Ye Shi looked at the "Condensation Qi Jue" alone, and shook his head slightly, "Unfortunately, it is incomplete, so there is no need to keep it." By my side."

"I'm going to give that book to Shu'er. Last time the doctor came to check her pulse and said she was weak and short of breath. The book seller said that if you practice according to this book, you can prolong your life," Wen Shu said after buying the book. , let his elder brother keep it. Seeing that Ye Shi was about to confiscate the book, Yue Wenhan became anxious, and he had some quick wits, and rushed to say.

"Used by Shu'er? Silly child, Shu'er is a... It doesn't matter if she doesn't practice, since you have such a heart to love your sister, you can put it away first, and read it as a miscellaneous book." After Yeshi finished speaking, her expression became serious. , and said towards the alley: "Don't hide, I haven't seen you all night, I really think my mother is blind and deaf."

Tonight when Yue Wenhan was out, Ye Shi boiled the medicine after he finished practicing with the bluestone, took some easy-to-drink licorice plums, and came to persuade his daughter to take the medicine.I knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered. When I entered the door, I lifted the quilt and saw that the bed had been cold for a long time. Needless to say, the brother and sister slipped out with her on their backs.

Wen Han jumped up in fright, and Wen Shu also knew that her mother had discovered her, so she walked out from the alley.

Seeing that her cheeks were rosy and her complexion was good, Yeshi was even more furious after being shocked. The soup and medicine that had been in the past few days had no effect, so she picked up the broom that was treed outside the house, and turned around to beat her.

"Mother, it was the boy who encouraged Shu'er to play in the street," Yue Wenhan stepped forward and grabbed the broom in Yeshi's hand, his knees were about to touch the ground, he accepted all the faults, and begged for love for his sister. Come.Yeshi has been very strict with Shu'er since she was a child. If something is wrong, she will use a broomstick to teach her a lesson. The number of times is too high. Every time she is taught, Wen Shu does not beg for mercy, but just stares with her eyes. Seeing her like this Yeshi will only get angrier if he looks like this.

"Her temperament has never heard of your bewitching. Wen Shu, it's not that she is partial to her mother. After a while, you will understand the painstaking efforts of her mother. I let you go to bed for a few days to recuperate, and it is for your own good," Ye Shi thought about plotting big things in a few days, so she planned to make Shu'er fall ill, and escaped the man-made disaster caused by her own family.

Now it seems that it is too late. My family sent a letter earlier, saying that the person sent by me was flooded on the road and would come later.Wen Shu recovered from her illness, and in a few days, people from Yue's family would come to check her, and they might find out her constitution.It is inevitable that there will be long nights and many dreams, so we will do it in the next few days, and we are fully prepared.

How can the brothers and sisters understand Ye Shi's thoughts, there are countless strange people in the vast world.

The Ye clan is a family of human tripods that is on the verge of extinction after the creation of the world by various ethnic groups in the wilderness. In the Ye clan, those who give birth to males are the guardians of the tripod, and those who give birth to daughters are the human tripods.

Women are human tripods, those with spiritual roots can help all kinds of cultivators nourish their spiritual energy, and those without spiritual roots can also prolong life.

When the Ye clan believed in Yue Qingcheng when he was young, he eloped away from his family, and only when he arrived in Suiyun City did he realize that he had been deceived and his cultivation was exhausted.Fortunately, after the birth of a pair of children, they were determined by the Yue family to have no spiritual roots.

Yue Qingcheng was ambitious, and agreed to save the lives of the mother and son. When the brothers and sisters were twelve years old, they would send someone over to check their physiques.

How could the Ye family let a pair of children conspire with the tiger?

Wen Han is good, if Shu'er goes to Yue's family, she will be used by someone to sacrifice to others, Ye Shi will never allow such a fate to happen to her daughter again.

"Brother, what's wrong with you. Wen Shu does everything by herself," Wen Shu's voice was cold, each word fell to the ground, and Ye Shi and Wen Han were stunned when they heard it.

After being reborn, it was the first time for Wen Shu to meet her mother, Yeshi, and to look carefully at it. Four years ago, Yeshi was not haggard because of the death of her eldest son, Yue Wenhan, but it was also because of years of hard work. The stars are dotted, dyed the temples.

Thinking of what her mother said before she died, Wen Shu knew that what Ye Shi did this time must be related to what she said before she died.

Wen Shu sighed secretly in her heart, mother, why do you have to bear it alone.

She helped her elder brother up, lowered her eyebrows and eyes to block the sadness under her eyes, walked up to Ye Shi, knelt down slowly, "Mother, Shu'er was wrong."

Ye Shi's nose was sour, every time Wen Shu was beaten and scolded in the past, she would complain and curse, but she never did like this tonight.

After all, it was the flesh that fell from his body, but the broom in Yeshi's hand could not fall off anyway, and he scrawled, "That's all for now. Since you are well, starting tomorrow, you can go to the kitchen to help, and you can't ask for help." Excuses to shirk. It's getting late, you both go to bed," let the brother and sister enter, and left the shop door behind.

Seeing his mother enter the room, Yue Wenhan was about to find words to comfort Wen Shu.

With a "puchi" in her ear, Wen Shu smiled so much that her eyes were crescent like crescents, and there was a bit of mischievousness in the corners of her eyes. "You idiot, my mother's temper, you don't want to be hard but submissive, I don't beg for mercy, how could you get in so easily," Yue Wenhan was really dumbfounded seeing the girl's changes, why did he think the girl After recovering from the illness this time, his temperament changed a lot, his complexion towards himself became better, and he seemed to be much more kind to his mother.

However, Yue Wenhan was very happy with such a change.

"Go back and rest, you have to get up tomorrow morning to buy. You take this book, my mother told you to read it carefully, as for this "Condensation Qi Jue", I will put it away," Wen Shu persuaded to leave After killing his brother, he couldn't wait to take out a few trophies for tonight.

It was already past the time to turn off the lights. Wen Shu opened the door, and under the dim light of the corridor, she flipped through the book "Concentrating Qi Jue" in hand. As Ye Shi said, there was nothing special about this book. It can be regarded as a miscellaneous book, but when it comes to the key points, several pages are missing, but it is better than nothing.

After a full half of the night, as the sky was getting brighter, Wen Shu finished reading the whole book. After reading the book, she couldn't help whispering: "It turns out that there is a way to cultivate immortality in the world." The stone in her arms was still warm. It was hot, and I peeked into the kitchen. It was still early, and it would be half an hour before Cook Liu would get up. Why not sneak in to check the magic circle while there is no one in the kitchen.

Just as she was about to get up and go downstairs, the door of the inn was pushed open, and Cook Liu quickly walked in. She hadn't returned all night last night.

After the person walked in, Wen Shu saw that the cook Liu was still holding a pot in her hand, and the plants planted in it had slender stems and leaves, and the plump millet was full of stems.That was the pot of imperial millet enshrined in Suqing Temple last night.

Chef Liu uprooted the yellow millet by the roots, tore off the leaf stems, put the yellow millet into a small cloth bag she took out next to her body, walked into the kitchen, and when she came out again, she had nothing in her hands.
