Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo came to Pharmacist Deng's clinic and happened to see a middle-aged man standing in front of Pharmacist Deng, thanking him with a happy face.

"Pharmacist Deng, it's really thanks to you that after all these years my bald head finally has some hair, and people no longer mistake me for a monk."

Pharmacist Deng nodded slightly and responded kindly: "This is what I should do. You should pay more attention to rest. If you have any other questions, you can always come to me."

The middle-aged man left the clinic.

Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo walked forward and greeted Pharmacist Deng.

"Pharmacist Deng, we're here to get the antidote." Xu Yeyu said.

Pharmacist Deng took out two small transparent bottles filled with gray medicine powder from his storage ring and gently placed them on the table.

"This is the antidote for Qing Yihua. To ensure that it is foolproof, I specially prepared two doses for you."

Pharmacist Deng handed the antidote to Xu Yeyu and continued, "Just mix the powder in the water and stir it evenly, then let her drink it. This powder has a certain hypnotic effect, so it's normal to feel sleepy after drinking it."

"If she still hasn't fully recovered after taking the first dose of antidote, you can use the second dose," Pharmacist Deng added.

Xu Yeyu put the two antidotes into the storage ring and then asked, "How long will it take for her to return to normal after taking the antidote?"

"No more than two days." Pharmacist Deng replied.

She returned the Love Flower to Xu Yeyu and reminded him, "This herb can be used to assist in cultivation, but you must be careful not to inhale the fragrance of the Love Flower when it blooms, and do not eat the petals by mistake."

Xu Yeyu smiled bitterly a few times. He had already thought about where Qing Yihua had gone. He would burn the herb after returning to Xiyang Sect.

This herb has too many side effects. If someone else inhales the scent of the love flower next time.

He had to come to Biyun City again to find Pharmacist Deng and ask her to prepare the antidote.

The two thanked Pharmacist Deng and then left the clinic.

......

......

Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo returned to the inn, and he asked the innkeeper to extend the room for two days.

Originally, Xu Yeyu planned to return to Sunset Sect immediately after obtaining the antidote, but considering that the antidote would take time to take effect, he decided to stay here and wait for Xia Xiaomo to fully recover.

If neither of these two antidotes could restore her to normal, he could always go to Pharmacist Deng.

Xu Yeyu poured the medicine powder into a bowl of water, and the powder quickly dissolved in the clear liquid.

He stirred gently with a spoon, and a slight vortex gradually appeared on the surface of the water, and the powder gradually blended into it.

After making sure there was no sediment, Xu Yeyu handed the bowl to Xia Xiaomo.

"Xiaomo, it's time to take medicine." Xu Yeyu said.

Xia Xiaomo took the bowl and took a small sip tentatively.

"It's so bitter. I can't drink this."

"Good medicine tastes bitter. You will be back to normal after drinking the antidote." Xu Yeyu said.

Seeing that Xia Xiaomo didn't want to drink the antidote, he said, "After you drink the medicine, I'll go eat roast chicken with you later."

Xia Xiaomo raised her head and asked, "Really?"

Xu Yeyu looked into Xia Xiaomo's clear eyes and said, "I will never lie to you. I will treat you to roast chicken later."

Xia Xiaomo didn't use the spoon anymore. She drank the medicine in the bowl in one gulp.

Xu Yeyu was stunned for a moment, feeling like he had been cheated.

He asked curiously, "Didn't you just say that this medicine was very bitter? Why did you finish it so quickly?"

Xia Xiaomo licked her lips and explained, "It's because it's so bitter that I can't drink it mouthful by mouthful. It's bitter if I drink it all at once. It's better to just drink it all at once."

Xu Yeyu nodded. He felt that what Xia Xiaomo said made some sense.

As the saying goes, a short pain is worse than a long pain. Instead of enduring torture for a long time, it is better to choose short-term pain to solve the problem.

It is also true that a short suffering is worse than a long one.

"Do you feel sleepy now?" Xu Yeyu asked.

Xia Xiaomo nodded. She did feel sleepy.

Ever since she inhaled the fragrance of the love flower, she often felt sleepy and would sleep two or three times a day.

She had just woken up not long before she and Xu Yeyu went to see Pharmacist Deng. Now after drinking the medicine, she felt sleepy again.

"Then wait until you wake up, then we'll go buy some roast chicken." Xu Yeyu said.

Xia Xiaomo was lying on the bed. She wrapped herself tightly in the quilt and looked at Xu Yeyu, with a hint of tiredness on her face.

"Can you hold my hand and let go after I fall asleep?"

Xu Yeyu smiled. He had gotten used to Xia Xiaomo making this request recently.

Every few nights before going to bed, she would always ask me to hold her hand to sleep.

"No problem, just reach out."

Xia Xiaomo loosened the quilt and put her left hand outside the quilt.

Xu Yeyu stretched out his hands and gently held her hands.

Xia Xiaomo's eyes slowly closed and the expression on her face gradually relaxed.

"When I wake up, remember to take me to eat roast chicken."

"Okay, have a good rest. When you wake up, I'll go eat roast chicken with you." Xu Yeyu said.

After being influenced by Qing Yihua, Xia Xiaomo's appetite increased and she sometimes felt particularly greedy.

......

......

Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo came to a roadside stall.

The stall owner was busy by the stove, the charcoal fire was burning red, and the aroma of roasted chicken filled the air.

On the stove, on several copper grills, golden roast chickens were being turned over and roasted, with crispy skin, tender meat, and an attractive luster on the surface.

Various spices and condiments are neatly arranged on the wooden shelves next to it, exuding bursts of fragrance.

Biyun City is a big city, and you can meet a cultivator every time you walk a certain distance.

There may be only a few monks in a county town, or even no monk at all.

The stall owner had naturally seen many monks, and several of them had come to him to buy roast chicken.

He smiled innocently and asked, "Young man, do you want to buy a roast chicken?"

Xu Yeyu nodded, turned his head and looked at Xia Xiaomo and asked, "How many roast chickens do you want to eat?"

"I'll just have a roast chicken." Xia Xiaomo replied.

Xu Yeyu couldn't help but look at Xia Xiaomo's belly. Last time she ate nine big meat buns in the bun shop, would this roast chicken be enough for her?

Xia Xiaomo noticed Xu Yeyu's gaze and asked, "Are you thinking of something very rude?"

Xu Yeyu expressed his thoughts.

"You ate nine meat buns last time. I don't think one roast chicken is enough for you."

Xia Xiaomo's cheeks flushed. She didn't know why she ate so many meat buns at that time.

She was not very conscious at that time, but now after taking the antidote given by Pharmacist Deng, she has fully recovered.

"I was influenced by Qing Yihua before, so my appetite became a little bigger. Normally, I can't eat so many meat buns." Xia Xiaomo explained.

Xu Yeyu nodded. He didn’t know whether what Xia Xiaomo said was true or not.

You have to give her a way out at times like this, otherwise it will be difficult to get a free meal from her next time.

Xu Yeyu turned around and looked at the stall owner and said, "We want two roasted chickens, with a little spiciness."

The stall owner asked, "Do you need me to cut it into pieces?"

"Cut it into pieces so we can eat it while walking back to the inn." Xia Xiaomo replied.

The stall owner skillfully placed two roasted chickens on the chopping board and quickly cut the chicken into pieces.

He then carefully placed the cut chicken pieces into two transparent boxes.

Xu Yeyu paid the money and the two of them walked towards the inn.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone softly on them, coating everything around them with a warm golden hue.

Each of them held a chicken leg in their hands, and the aroma of meat filled the air.

The breeze blew by, gently caressing their hair and clothes.
