Chapter 113 - Fruit

Edited by Molly

After finalizing the title, Xiao Shao went to fetch water for the aunt, and suddenly said, “Don’t move.”

Lin Shu did not dare to move.

The stream was full of stones, and he was afraid that he would fall when he moved.

He was like a kindergarten student waiting for his parents to pick him up. When Xiao Shao came back, he grabbed his sleeve and followed carefully.

It happened on the way back.

When they were going back, they had to go through a ridge.

Lin Shu could not see it, but according to Xiao Shao, wheat was planted on both sides of the ridge. At present, the wheat seedlings were very tender and could not be stepped on.

This ridge could only allow one person to pass through.

It was easy to come here. Xiao Shao used two hands to take Lin Shu, so that he won’t step on the air.

Now that the bucket was hand-held, it was not easy to operate.

Xiao Shao: “Should I carry you?”

Lin Shu: “You have the bucket.”

Xiao Shao: “I will hug you.”

They were entangled in a complicated posture..

Lin Shu was held by Xiao Shao, and at the same time he half-carried the bucket.

Xiao Shao took a step.

Lin Shu: “!!!”

The water spilled!

And sprinkled on him!

He changed the position of the bucket and held it tightly to prevent it from shaking again.

Xiao Shao: “Is that ok?”

Lin Shu: “Probably.”

Xiao Shao went on.

This time, after he took two steps.

Lin Shu: “...”

He felt Xiao Shao’s chest shaking.

This man was laughing.

But Lin Shu couldn’t laugh.

The water still spilled.

Because the bucket was slightly tilted when he was holding it, and Xiao Shao was hugging him sideways, his body was also tilted.

The water splashed his face.

Lin Shu: “......”

Xiao Shao took the bucket away and put him down.

During this process, he laughed again.

Then he rubbed something on his face a few times, and said during the process, “Don’t move.”

——Even the short word “Don’t move” had such a slight smile.

Lin Shu: “&#k2026;”

After being called “Little Blind”, he was mocked again.

He was sure that if this person was still the Big Miss, and he was still the Shu sister, he can never be laughed at.

Xiao Shao wiped the water off his face.

Lin Shu stood silent in the cold morning wind.

Xiao Shao: “Are you okay?”

Lin Shu: “Not good.”

He was splashed with water because of improper posture and the bumps, he was also laughed at three times.

However, there was no malice in this mockery.

Combining his previous experience in the academy, he thought of the way Cang Min and Yue Ruohe got along.

When Cang Min made some ugly moves or remarks, Yue Ruohe would laugh at him mercilessly, and when Yue Ruohe did, Cang Min would taunt him back ten times.

When he was in college, several of his roommates seemed to do the same. They attacked each other tirelessly similar to that of “father” and “son”.

Is this the friendship between the two boys?

Xiao Shao: “Shall we continue?”

Lin Shu: “Will you spill it again?”

Xiao Shao: “I’m afraid it will.”

This person laughed again.

Lin Shu wanted to strangle him now.

He carefully recalled the details of how Cang min and Yue Ruohe got along with each other. He planned to learn from them and then use them to respond to Xiao Shao.

As a result, a blind spot was found before the wording of the response was well thought out.

Lin Shu asked, “Why can’t I be separated from the bucket?”

Xiao Shao: “Separated?”

Lin Shu: “For example, the bucket goes first.”

Xiao Shao was silent for a while, “I didn’t think of that.”

This was actually not a question of how two people could cross the ridge with a bucket, but a question of sequence.

He just needed Xiao Shao to bring the bucket to the end of the ridge first, and then come back and take himself there, everything would be solved this way.

But they hugged all the way here, in disorder, and even caused a tragedy of cold water splashing–this was not because of his wrong posture, but the common stupidity of the two.

Lin Shu even suspected that the IQ of the two of them had declined to a certain extent.

Finally, Xiao Shao took him to the end of the ridge first, then returned to carry the bucket.

The aunt asked, “Why have you been there for so long?”

Xiao Shao said as true, “We played in the water for a while.”

Aunt: “What! You let the little lady touch cold water!”

Xiao Shao was reprimanded by the aunt again.

Lin Shu felt happy.

After Xiao Shao was reprimanded, he obediently took him back to the room and said he would treat his eyes.

Lin Shu listened to him lighting up a spiritual fire with the jade soul, heating the ice jade silver needle, and then immersing it in the frozen spring water.

“Chi”

Then, the sound of Xiao Shao’s footsteps came, and a hand supported him on the back of his head.

“I’ll prick your Zanzhu and Sibai acupoints.”

Lin Shu: “You did not seem to have learned 《Introduction to Medical Skills》.”

Xiao Shao: “But I have learned the 《Six Heavenly Stems Acupuncture Skills》.”

The needle was about to pierce.

Lin Shu was a little scared. He estimated the distance between himself and the needle, and then shuddered lightly when the imaginary needle stimulated his skin.

Xiao Shao: “I have not pricked it yet.”

Lin Shu: “......”

In the next moment, something cold pierced the Sibai acupoint under his right eye precisely.

Lin Shu hadn’t reacted yet, a second later, another cold silver needle pierced into the Zanzhu hole on the right.

He calmed down, preparing for the next needle pricking in a second.

One second, three seconds, ten seconds.

Lin Shu: “?”

The next moment, when he just relaxed his vigilance, the Sibai point on the left was pricked.

After a random period of time, the Zanzhu acupoint on the left also suddenly felt cold.

Lin Shu tried to make the relationship between himself and Xiao Shao appear more natural. He thought and then said, “You can follow some pattern.”

Xiao Shao said lightly, “I’m afraid you are nervous.”

Really? I think you were just playing with me.

Xiao Shao: “The needle will be pulled out in a quarter of an hour.”

Lin Shu felt something slowly flowing down from the needle.

Xiao Shao said, “There is blood.”

Lin Shu felt Xiao Shao’s cool fingers pass under his eyes.

“Like you are crying blood.”

Then, his fingertips were replaced with a moist cloth, and the blood that had flowed down was wiped clean.

Lin Su suddenly felt his eyes feel better.

After pulling out the four needles in turn, Xiao Shao covered his eyes with a hair ribbon and said, “Wait a moment, okay?”

Lin Shu let out an “En”.

Xiao Shao sat down beside him and continued to read the medical book.

After a while, the auntie shouted in the yard, “Xiao Xianggong!”

It turned out that it was the Auntie who was changing the quilt, and there was no one at home temporarily, so she needed someone to help.

Xiao Shao told him to remove the hair ribbon in half an hour, and then went to the yard to help arrange the quilts.

Lin Shu thought, this man can be considered a good person.

The series of things that had happened in the past few days were too complicated. Staying alone in the room with nothing to do, he was a little uneasy, so he took out the Folding Bamboo sword.

The blade was cold and calm. Immediately, he took out the soft cloth for wiping the sword from the brocade bag and gently wiped the blade.

Previously, when the Big Miss had a bad temper, she would wipe her sword in the atrium by herself. He could not understand at that time, and only now did he understand that wiping the sword and the blade can effectively relieve anxiety and calm people.

He spent a quarter of an hour in peace. He put the Folding Bamboo flat on the table and unfastened the hair ribbon from his eyes.

There was light.

There was a fuzzy halo in front of his eyes, which seemed to be the window.

——It really worked.

He turned his head and looked at the room. Most of it was still dark, with darker or lighter halos in some places.

If the blood stasis is punctured by the ice jade needle every day, will it get better soon?

Thinking of this, Lin Shu thought again, what if he used his own spiritual power to wash away the blood stasis?

If he could flush it away a day earlier, he wouldn’t have to give Xiao Shao and aunt any more trouble.

After Xiao Shao used “Nirvana and Life”, he would not be able to use spiritual power for seven days, and as for his own——he was left with four Spirit Gathering Pill pills.

Using spiritual power to break open silt congestion, this was a very normal operation.

Lin Shu thought for a while, smashed a pill, and ate a quarter pill.

The familiar cold spiritual power condensed in his body. He moved his mind, and his heart gradually became cold and quiet, and then—the next moment!

Lin Shu’s limbs and a hundred skeletons suddenly erupted with a violent and unbearable pain. His eyes went dark, and he fell forward. Before he completely lost consciousness, he heard the sound of some objects falling to the ground.

When Lin Shu woke up, he opened his eyes, and there was still a halo of different shades in front of him.

There was a voice saying, “Your meridians were all broken, so you can no longer take the Spirit Gathering Pill.”

There was a little sternness in his voice.

Lin Shu thought about the tragedy that just happened, and said: “...I was wrong.”

He was prepared for the pain, but he didn’t expect it to be so severe.

Xiao Shao stretched out his hand to straighten his hair out and said, “Don’t do this in the future.”

Lin Shu: “En.”

Xiao Shao’s tone became lighter, “Does it still hurt?”

Lin Shu shook his head.

“Don’t worry about your eyes,” Xiao Shao said, “Even if it doesn’t get better for a lifetime, I will not leave you behind.”

Lin Shu was a little flattered.

However, Xiao Shao’s next sentence made his heart jump.

“Just now you fell unconscious on the table and overturned the Beauty’s Grace.”

Lin Shu: “Is it still alive?”

“Alive,” Xiao Shao paused and said, “But the fruit is gone, I have not found it.”

“Didn’t Xiao Xuan say that...” Lin Shu’s voice was a little astringent, “the fruit can not be stored and it can’t leave the branch for too long?”

Xiao Shao: “Yeah.”

The Beauty’s Grace fruit had almost matured, just because he took the wrong medicine... it disappeared?

Lin Shu’s heart was so painful that he couldn’t breathe.

“It’s okay,” Xiao Shao said, “You can raise it again.”

“But,” Lin Shu was a little depressed, “We have been raising the fruit for so long.”

——He hadn’t seen the fruit after it was ripe.
