Su Xiaolu quickly took out the needles and put them away.
Liu Zijin was also dressed. The pain only lasted for a short while before Su Xiaolu took the needle and disappeared.
Liu Zijin cupped her hands at Su Xiaolu and said, “Thank you.”
Su Xiaolu packed up the needle bag and asked with a smile, “Aren’t you worried that I’m not good enough and you won’t be able to have children in the future?”
Liu Zijin smiled and said, “No, I believe you.”
Su Xiaolu tsked. Fine, she didn’t scare anyone.
Liu Zijin laughed. Of course, he believed her. No matter what Su Xiaolu showed, he only believed what he felt.
When Su Xiaolu came out, Wang Huilan handed her a hundred taels of silver. Su Xiaolu put away the silver notes and said with a smile, “I wish you all the best. We’ll meet again if fate allows. Master has been waiting for me for a long time. I’ll leave first.”
Su Xiaolu left.
Madame Yin rose to see her off.
Outside the door, Su Xiaolu also instructed Madam Yin, “Madam, your body is seriously injured. During this period of time, it’s best to stay in bed and recuperate for two months. You should get off the bed and walk around less.”
Madam Yin nodded and smiled warmly. “Thank you for your concern, Miss Su. I know.”
She would accompany Wang Huilan for the next two days. When Wang Huilan and Liu Zijin returned, she would recuperate for two months.
Wang Huilan had come to see the doctor. Now that she had seen them, she would go home and take medicine. Then, she would slowly lose weight. After not seeing them for a long time, she asked them to stay for a few days.
But not for long. They would be back in two or three days at most.
Madam Yin smiled warmly at Su Xiaolu. She was grateful to Su Xiaolu from the bottom of her heart.
“Goodbye, Madam Yin.”
Su Xiaolu waved at Madam Yin and ran towards Old Wu.
Perhaps because they had waited for too long, Old Wu had a long face. Su Xiaolu ran to his side and called him ‘good master, good master’. Old Wu’s cold face changed a little.
The corners of his lips curled up slightly, but he quickly straightened them again and said coldly, “Even if you pass this training, I still have to test you again in another three to five years.”
The little girl had solved the stone fetus in Madam Yin’s stomach perfectly. He was very satisfied.
Su Xiaolu tilted her head and asked, “Master, when will I not be tested?”
Old Wu snorted coldly and stroked his beard. “It depends on my mood. As long as I’m still alive, I can train you whenever I want.”
That was his power.
Su Xiaolu smiled sweetly and held Old Wu’s arm. “Master, I think three to five years is too long. As the only successor of the divine doctors of Minggu, I think you should test me at least twice a year.”
Old Wu quickly reached out his hand and walked away quickly.
Su Xiaolu was abnormally lively. Old Wu had already started to have social anxiety.
He looked defiant. He decided to cancel the tests in the future!
Not to mention once every three to five years, even once every ten years was too much for him. The little girl was so strange. He was really scared.
When they went back, Old Wu brought Su Xiaolu along the mountain path to pick herbs.
Su Xiaolu also liked to pick herbs. She had planted many precious herbs in her Space, but as a doctor, who would complain about having too many herbs?
Although they were master and disciple, they picked herbs together. When they encountered precious herbs, they would fight over them!
A Ghost Orchid grew halfway up the cliff. Master and disciple said in unison, “I saw it first!”
Old Wu blew his beard angrily. “Stupid girl, I’m your master, do you know that? This medicinal herb is mine. Go and pluck it for me.”
Su Xiaolu also pouted. “Master, brothers should settle accounts clearly. I want this herb too. Let’s rely on our own abilities!”
Old Wu stomped his foot angrily. “Stupid girl, I was the one who got someone to teach you the sword technique. You heartless person, I’m so angry. I’m going to expel you from the sect!”
Su Xiaolu spread her hands. “Then expel me.”
Anyway, she wanted this Ghost Orchid.
Old Wu hammered his chest angrily. “You have no conscience. You have no conscience.”
Seeing Old Wu acting up, Su Xiaolu also acted. She looked at Old Wu and her tears fell. “Good Master…”
Old Wu lost and turned around. “Alright, alright, you win.”
His weakness was really being controlled by the little girl.
Su Xiaolu smiled and flew towards the cliff.
She grabbed the protruding stone wall with one hand and dug with the small hoe in the other.
Along the way back, the master and disciple had formed a tacit understanding.
When they encountered medicinal herbs that both sides wanted, they would definitely argue. However, as long as anyone relented, the matter would be settled.
Old Wu watched from below. He was worried but couldn’t put down his pride. He shouted awkwardly, “Stupid girl, be careful. If you fall, I won’t care about you.”
Su Xiaolu smiled and replied, “Don’t worry, Master. I’m safe.”
She carefully dug the Ghost Orchid down. Su Xiaolu flew down lightly.
She smiled sweetly at Old Wu and said, “Good master, Ghost Orchid has borne fruit. I’ll give you half of the fruit. Calm down. I promise that the next time I see something good, I won’t snatch it from you. You have the right to cool me down.”
Old Wu couldn’t help but smile. He turned around and walked away arrogantly. “Hmph, you said it.”
Su Xiaolu followed him with a smile. The old man was arrogant, but he was easy to coax.
The Ghost Orchid was too difficult to find. If it was planted in the Space, the fruits produced by the Ghost Orchid would be inexhaustible. This was very useful.
This was a supplementary medicine. When it was made into medicine, the effect could be multiplied by ten times if some Ghost Orchid Fruit was added. Whether it was to stop the bleeding, beautify the face, or extend one’s lifespan, it would be a supreme-grade medicine.
This was a Ghost Orchid the size of a yarrow. It could be used for a long time.
After obtaining a Ghost Orchid, Su Xiaolu was very happy. If she encountered any good herbs in the future, she would not fight with Old Wu for them.
Because of the herb-picking, it took the master and disciple four more days to return.
It was the first of February when they got home.
As soon as she got home in the afternoon, Su Xiaolu returned to her room and quietly planted the herbs in the Space.
The spiritual spring had been nourishing the roots these few days, so the herbs were still very fresh.
In her space, there were two acres of black fields, and half of them were planted with medicinal herbs.
Ginseng, Lingzhi, tree lotuses, and all kinds of precious herbs.
Now there was a new Ghost Orchid.
Su Xiaolu planted the herbs and picked five Ghost Orchid fruits before coming out of the space.
As she emerged, she felt a hand pinching her cheek.
Su Xiaolu was speechless.
Her third sister, no doubt.
Su Xiaoling sighed and said with heartache, “You’ve lost weight. It’s a pity that I can’t help you. Sleep well and I’ll make you something delicious.”
Seeing Su Xiaolu sleep when she came back, Su Xiaoling thought that she was exhausted.
She pinched Su Xiaolu’s little hand and then pinched her cheek. Su Xiaoling covered Su Xiaolu with a blanket and got up to leave.
