Chapter 41 The Heart Is Too Soft

"What's your full name?" Ruan Nanxing asked.

While carefully keeping the painting, Xiao Qi said, "Ruan Beidou means Big Dipper, so my nickname is Xiao Qi."

Ruan Nanxing let out a "yo roar" in his heart, this name suits her quite well, doesn't it waste a lot of brain cells?She didn't speak, just looked at Gu Jiuzhou, but was shocked to find that this person had relaxed at some point, could it be that she believed this set of rhetoric?

Gu Jiuzhou nodded to her silently, he thought there was no problem.

Ruan Nanxing: "..."

That's right, she is from the perspective of God, no matter how realistic and definite evidence the teenager presents, she will not believe it, because she has no amnesia at all.

But in Gu Jiuzhou's view, everything the boy did before is enough to prove himself. After all, the evidence is so realistic that even Ruan Nanxing himself is a little dazed.

Sighing, she retreated and said, "I still can't fully trust you."

Xiao Qi was very anxious, just as he was about to speak, Ruan Nanxing waved his hand and said, "Listen to me first."

Xiao Qi could only shrink back aggrieved.

She continued: "You can stay, or you can talk more about our previous life until I completely believe in you, or restore my memory." She raised her eyes, looked at Xiaoqi expressionlessly, and said indifferently: "Or , I will see through your lies and kill you."

Xiao Qi was taken aback, he flinched, but then became more determined, "I didn't lie! You are my sister!"

Ruan Nanxing stared at him fixedly, then looked away expressionlessly, "Ah Jiu, take him to the study room. Tell him clearly where you can go and where you can't go in the courtyard, don't touch it." Something that shouldn't be touched. I'm going to make alchemy, don't bother me."

Gu Jiuzhou looked at her leaving back, raised his eyebrows slightly, Ruan Nanxing didn't believe this boy?Why?Do you feel insecure because of amnesia, or did you find something wrong?
Thinking about it, Gu Jiuzhou felt a little more vigilant, and looked at the boy indifferently, "Come with me."

Xiao Qi was very sensitive, so he naturally sensed the attitude of the two of them. He looked a little sad, but no matter what, he managed to stay.

The bookstore was cleaned up once before, but no one came in for a long time, and another layer of dust accumulated.

Gu Jiuzhou cleaned the room with a cleansing technique, and said: "There is a soft couch by the window, you can sleep there for now."

In fact, Ruan Nanxing still had a bed in his hand. The master bedroom was converted into an alchemy room before, and the bed, table, chairs and wardrobe were all withdrawn.But this young man obviously didn't have her trust, so naturally he wouldn't bother to buy a room for him, it would be good if he didn't let him sleep in the concierge.

Xiao Qi didn't pick anything, and thanked Gu Jiuzhou in a low voice. He still didn't dare to talk to this cold man, he always felt that it was very dangerous.

Gu Jiuzhou frowned and looked at him.

Xiao Qi stepped back nervously.

Gu Jiuzhou raised his hand to clean the person with a cleansing technique, and with a slight retraction of his palm, he pinched the boy's neck in his hand.

Xiao Qi's face turned pale instantly, and he closed his eyes in despair, but the suffocation and pain did not strike.He was let go within a few seconds, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw a tall and indifferent figure with a cold order, "Nothing in or outside the courtyard is allowed to move."

Xiao Qi touched his neck, let out a sigh of relief, and muttered: "Sooner or later, I will let my sister drive you away!"

On the other side, Gu Jiuzhou let down his vigilance again. The young man's cultivation base is very low, and the meridians in his body are injured, so he can't use his spiritual power at all, and his attack power is extremely low.Ruan Nanxing is also an alchemist, he is very familiar with all kinds of medicines, the possibility of being successfully poisoned is very small.

Therefore, this young man is not a threat at all, so there is no need to pay attention to it all the time.

In the alchemy room, Ruan Nanxing calmed down while processing the medicinal materials. When the medicinal materials were ready, she had already put aside her distracting thoughts and only focused on alchemy.

What she refined was Zengling Pill, and seven pills were produced in this furnace, which is considered a high yield.Ruan Nanxing felt that he should be able to try Tianlinghua.

After packing up the alchemy room, it was almost time for lunch.

When Ruan Nanxing came to the kitchen, Gu Jiuzhou had already cooked the rice.

She thought for a while and said, "At noon, have braised pork ribs, stir-fried vegetables, dry-pot potatoes, and another soup?"

Gu Jiuzhou nodded, "Okay."

There is only one pot in the kitchen, and the dishes have to be cooked one by one, which is a bit slow.

Ruan Nanxing turned around and walked out.

Gu Jiuzhou only glanced at her, and then lowered his eyes to stare carefully at the fire in the stove pit. It can't be too big, it will burn, and it can't be too small, it will be undercooked.

After a while, Ruan Nanxing came back, holding an alchemy stove that had shrunk down to the size of a rice cooker.

She put the alchemy stove on the side of the open space, and then threw ingredients into it one by one, ribs, peppers, spices, salt... then added water, and finally lit the stove!
Gu Jiuzhou couldn't help asking: "What are you doing?"

"Stewed meat." Ruan Nanxing replied succinctly. She concentrated on controlling the heat. The ingredients are much more fragile than elixir, and if they are not careful, they will be burned to ashes.

Stew meat in an alchemy furnace?

Gu Jiuzhou glanced at her with strange eyes, this kind of thing is really unheard of.

From ancient times to the present, the status of alchemists has been very high, because elixir is an indispensable existence for monks to practice, and alchemists will be treated with courtesy wherever they go, and the alchemy furnace is a symbol of alchemists.

Now it is used to stew meat. What is the difference between this and the chef's cauldron?If other alchemists saw it, they would probably be furious and kick Ruan Nanxing out of the ranks of alchemists.

And it turns out that the alchemy furnace can not only stew meat, but also stew it quickly and deliciously!

The moment the lid of the alchemy furnace was opened, a strong smell of meat wafted out.

Ruan Nanxing and Gu Jiuzhou took a deep breath at the same time.

The hen and the bloodline vine in the yard became restless after a moment of silence, and Xiao Qi also followed the scent to find it, and stood at the door staring at the alchemy furnace, swallowing his saliva.

Ruan Nanxing took out a deep-mouthed disc, poured out the meat, and said to himself: "Next time, maybe I can put a little elixir in it, maybe I can make a medicinal meal with special effects."

Gu Jiuzhou's eyes were complicated, he said just now that this person deviates from the scriptures, but in fact he never deviates from his original principles, and he will still abduct him to alchemy.

After cleaning the alchemy stove, Ruan Nanxing cooked a pot of sweet soup in the same way.

On the other side, Gu Jiuzhou also prepared potatoes and vegetables in a dry pot.

The two brought the food to the dining table and prepared to eat.

Xiao Qi stood at the door, hesitating not to go in, seeing that there were no extra bowls and chopsticks on the dining table, he lowered his head in frustration and forced himself to leave.

The boy's back is bleak, thin and small.

Seeing this, Ruan Nanxing couldn't bear it, so he said, "There are bowls and chopsticks in the kitchen, bring them to eat."

Gu Jiuzhou raised his eyebrows slightly, but didn't speak.

Xiaoqi turned her head sharply, with a look of surprise on her face, "Can I eat?"

Ruan Nanxing lowered his head to eat the meat, and snorted, "Hurry up if you want to eat, no one will save it for you."

Xiaoqi opened her mouth, ran and bumped to the kitchen, and came back like a gust of wind.

The moment the ribs entered, Xiaoqi's eyes were blurred, and tears fell down.

Ruan Nanxing sighed, "Don't cry, it's easy to choke."

Xiaoqi choked with sobs and responded, "Sister, you are so kind."

Ruan Nanxing was a little depressed. Being too soft-hearted is a disease, which needs to be cured.
