Chapter 14 The silly child who starved to death
On the way back to Danfeng, Qin Ran felt something inexplicable. It's like, there is someone waiting for him at home, and she is a woman... a girl... a girl. This feeling is really wonderful.
His steps became brisk, and even when he was walking on the stone road in Danfeng Forest, he actually had expectations in his heart... It was an eagerness to return home that he hadn't seen in many years.
But when he walked out of the forest, stood at the entrance of the forest, and saw the dirty clay figure in the middle of the lawn in front of him, his excited heart instantly calmed down.
Li Shiyin was very good and obedient. She was born as a general, and she would not be lazy after receiving orders. In just one day, she dug a big hole out of thin air; and she did not dig in the wrong place. After all, it only took one day. Even if you are wrong, you won't be wrong.
only……
Qin Ran sat on the grass beside the pit and looked at the clay figure lying next to him with dull eyes. He thought of the cold and charming Tian Wenjin. Why did he think that the silly and dirty girl in front of him could form a peerless pair with her? ! !
"Have you had lunch?" he asked.
Li Shiyin's whole body was sore and she felt like she couldn't lift a finger. She replied feebly: "Master, where can I go to eat if you are not here?"
"Huh?" Kieran felt his blood pressure rising.
So this silly girl doesn’t know how to cook. There are so many things in the refrigerator in the kitchen, including delicacies from the mountains and seas, and exotic animals. As a result, she doesn’t know how to cook and doesn’t have lunch!
Look to the sky!
Sure enough, she should be sent away, otherwise sooner or later he will be angry to death.
Jianfeng? No, no, no, she is too stupid to learn swordsmanship. She should find an individual to practice the sect, that would suit her very well.
"There is a story in my hometown..." Qin Ran also lay down, looked at the clouds in the sky, and said quietly,
"There was a family who gave birth to a silly son. One time, his parents were going on a long journey. They were worried that the silly son would starve to death if he didn't have anything to eat at home, so they made him a big cake and hung it around his neck. As long as he lowered his head, he would be able to eat. If you eat the bread, you won’t be hungry. But when they returned from their work, they found that their son was still starving to death.”
Li Shiyin thought about it seriously and asked, "Is it because the cake is not enough?"
"Huh..." Kieran let out a breath, tried hard to control his blood pressure, and said, "Because he is a fool. He only knows how to eat what's in front and doesn't know how to eat what's behind."
"Oh!" Li Shiyin tilted her head and suddenly realized, "Oh...I understand, master, you are calling me stupid! There is food in the kitchen, but I don't know how to cook it."
Kieran was silent because he didn't know what to say, praising her for being smart?
The master and apprentice lay on the grass for a long time, and Li Shiyin's stomach suddenly growled. She felt a little embarrassed and said weakly: "Master...Master...I'm hungry." …”
Qin Ran closed his eyes tightly, and finally stood up, walked to the residential building, and said to Li Shiyin, "I'll cook, you go take a shower."
After Li Shiyin received the order, Gululu got up and chased after Qin Ran.
After dinner, Kieran went to the storage room, rummaged through it, and found a large wooden bucket, the kind used for bathing.
Before there was a bathtub in the bathroom, he liked to take a bath in this tub. Now turn it out and prepare it for Li Shiyin.
He went out with the bathtub and went to the river to draw water for washing.
When Li Shiyin saw it, she ran over and asked curiously: "Master, why are you washing this?"
"For you to take a bath." Qin Ran controlled the water flow and replied casually.
"Ah?" Li Shiyin didn't understand very well, "Isn't there a bathtub in the bathroom?"
"Medicated bath." Qin Ran explained.
"Oh!" Li Shiyin understood a little and worked hard to dig the lake all day long. At this time, her whole body was sore. If there was no accident, she might not even be able to get up tomorrow.
The master is a serious alchemist, and he can use medicine to assist his practice, which is really normal.
She was watching from the side, watching Qin Ran controlling the water flow inside and outside the rinsing barrel. She suddenly remembered something, glanced at the storage room, and asked aloud: "Master, that one in the storage room is Feijian." ?"
"Which one?" Qin Ran was so frightened that the barrel almost slipped into the river.
"It's that big iron sword with guardrails." Li Shiyin gestured.
"What a guardrail, a big iron sword, and a flying sword..." Qin Ran pretended to be calm, "You can't use your eyes well at a young age, so it's just a fool's errand!"
"No..." Li Shiyin argued. Dududu ran into the storage room to look for it, but turned around and couldn't find the big flying sword on the guardrail that he saw during the day. Dududu ran out again, scratching his head and wondering. He said, "Why is it missing?"
Qin Ran breathed a sigh of relief and said, "They say you got it wrong."
He washed the barrel and moved it to Li Shiyin's room. The table was moved to the window and the barrel was placed in the middle of the room.
"Why should it be placed in the middle?" Li Shiyin asked curiously as she watched Qin Ran measure the position solemnly.
There are really many problems for mentally retarded children. Li Shiyin’s 100,000 Whys.
Qin Ran had a dull look on his face and replied: "Although it is not needed now, when you build the foundation and your cultivation level is high, the medicinal bath will need to be used in conjunction with the formation to be effective."
"Oh!" Li Shiyin nodded, the master was thinking too far ahead.
"Okay, come with me..." Kieran arranged the barrels, fixed them, and called Li Shiyin to join him.
Coming downstairs, Qin Ran picked up a pair of water buckets for Li Shiyin and took them to the research building.
Asking Li Shiyin to wait in the alchemy room on the first floor, Qin Ran went to the second floor to grab medicine. After a while, he came down with a pile of medicinal materials.
There is an alchemy furnace in the alchemy room, and there is earth core fire under the alchemy furnace. Although Qin Ran mostly uses water refining methods, fire elixir refining is more classic, and he naturally studies it as well.
Moreover, most of the alchemy furnaces use fire methods to refine elixirs, and fire refining can produce more tricks.
Qin Ran was refining elixirs while teaching Li Shiyin, explaining to her the name of this medicinal material, its functions, when to put it into the furnace, when to refine it with water, and when to refine it with fire, all of which were explained to her one by one.
However, it was obvious that Li Shiyin was making a medicinal bath by going in the left ear and out the right ear, but within a quarter of an hour, she almost fell asleep.
After the medicine was prepared, it was put into buckets, and Li Shiyin carried it by herself from the research building to the accommodation building.
"Brew it yourself..." Qin Ran poured the medicine into the wooden barrel, added a few tonics that did not need to be refined, and said to Li Shiyin, "How long you want to soak it depends on your own feeling. What needs to be noted is that, first, Don’t drown…”
"How can you drown if you take a bath?" Li Shiyin laughed.
"Just listen to me, it's rude to interrupt others." Qin Ran glanced at her and continued, "During the medicinal bath, the medicinal effect enters the body and repairs the body's texture, making it easy for people to fall asleep. It’s easy to drown.”
Li Shiyin thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was indeed the case. But being drowned in the bath was really funny, so she suppressed a smile and nodded.
"Second, if you feel uncomfortable, come out immediately. Don't soak. Go to the bathroom and rinse with clean water." Qin Ran instructed, "Then tell me carefully tomorrow and I will adjust the prescription."
"good."
"Third, be careful not to catch a cold." Qin Ran said, "If you soak in the water for too long, the water will become cold and you will easily catch a cold. Be careful."
After explaining, he turned around and went out. Before closing the door, he was still worried about this stupid apprentice and said, "If something is wrong, you can call me. I'm in the study."
"Got it!" Li Shiyin responded loudly, feeling that the master was more verbose than her mother.
Qin Ran went out and went straight to the study.
Li Shiyin closed the door and window and smelled the tub. The smell was a bit unpleasant, but she was not a pretentious person, so she took off her clothes and turned over in.
