Morning Star

After a pause, he looked at Chujiu and continued, "I heard from your mother that you and her learned a lot about spiritual medicine in the past two days?"

"Yeah." Chujiu nodded.

Wondering why Chu Congnan asked this.

"You should study hard. Nothing is absolute. Don't give up. That's all I have to say." Chu Congnan said after thinking for a while.

Chujiu was very confused. Was he saying that the marrow cleansing pill was promising, or was he saying there was some other way? Why was this cheap dad acting so strange today?

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard Chu Congnan continue to say: "Don't tell anyone about Xue Guo, remember?"

Chu Congnan was extremely serious when she said this, as if if she said it out loud, it would bring disaster to her family.

Chujiu nodded seriously, "Yeah, don't worry, Dad."

Chu Congnan: "Just study hard, your father has things to do."

"Ah."

After Chu Congnan left, Chujiu stopped exercising and sat on a stone bench beside him to think carefully about what Chu Congnan had just said.

From his words, she always felt that there was some unspeakable reason why the original owner Chujiu had such poor cultivation aptitude. But what was the reason? She couldn't think of it.

……

At night, after finishing dinner, Chujiu was lying on the bed thinking about tomorrow's affairs when he heard a ethereal voice in his mind: "Considering that the tasker's cultivation is too low and will affect the subsequent progress, a marrow cleansing pill is given as a gift."

Piaomiao said and slipped away as usual. At the same time, a jade box appeared in Chujiu's hand.

"!!!"

Wait, what did she hear?

Marrow Cleansing Pill!!!

She had given up, but she didn't expect the system to give her one.

There is always a way out for everyone. Oh, no, there is always a way out for everyone! Hahahaha…

"Piaomiao, I love you!" she shouted in her mind.

Piaomiao: "..."

Regardless of whether Piao Miao responded or not, she sat up with a start and looked at the white jade box in her hand. Suppressing her excitement, she quietly opened a crack. Immediately, a hint of medicinal fragrance drifted into her nose. Then she looked around like a thief, quickly covered the box and hid it.

When she lay down again, the corners of her mouth almost bent from her face to behind her ears. She had no intention of thinking about why Piao Miao would be so kind as to give her such a rare medicine as the Marrow Cleansing Pill. She couldn't suppress her laughter.

So Green Ivy, who was sleeping in the outer room, heard such a strange sound.

“Hahahaha, hahahahahaha, God is really helping me, hahahaha, I’m the ninth day of the lunar year and this day has come. I’m no longer the most unlucky person, ahhahahaha, oh hehehehe, eh hehehehehe…”

Green Radish: “!!!”

Very scared!!

Is the young lady possessed by evil spirits?

Would you like to take a look?

But that laugh was so scary!

As a qualified personal maid, Luluo came to the door of Chujiu's room, fearing that she would be eaten by her mistress. She knocked on the door carefully and said, "Miss, are you okay?"

"Hahaha... hiccup, no, it's okay, hehe, it's okay, I... was dreaming." Chujiu stopped laughing upon hearing the voice and replied awkwardly.

"Are you really okay?" Luoluo was not sure.

"Yeah, it's really okay, Green Rose, go and have a rest."

"Oh, if you have any problem, please call me. I'm outside." Luluo reminded her, fearing that her young lady would get upset if she encountered any problem.

"Yeah, okay, don't worry. Go to bed, baby."

Green Radish: “?!!”

Baby, baby?

The lady is so scary tonight.

Inside the house, Chujiu returned to the bed, lay flat on it, and raised the box containing the marrow cleansing pill in his hand. The corners of his mouth were already smiling so hard that he couldn't close them.

Alas, this system is not completely useless. Hehehe...

……

After being happy for a while, Chujiu began to feel confused.

How do you take this marrow cleansing pill? Should you take it directly, or should you take it with other spiritual medicine?

She didn't understand this either. Should she ask her brother, mother, or that cheap father?

Well... let's not do that. Her sudden use of a marrow cleansing pill would definitely scare them, and they might even suspect her.

But how can she improve her strength without anyone noticing? No, she needs to learn how to take this marrow cleansing pill first.

How about asking my brother tomorrow? Let's get some information first.

"Brother, can I ask you a question?" In the rest area on the training ground, Chujiu looked up at Chu Wenxuan and asked.

"Xiaojiu, if you have any questions, just ask directly. I promise to answer them all." Chu Wenxuan smiled.

In fact, Chu Wenxuan has been training the family's soldiers in the training ground these days. Whenever he has time, he will go back to Chu Congnan to report the situation.

"Brother, um...didn't I discuss the marrow cleansing pill with you that day? I actually have one question I haven't asked." Chujiu hesitated.

Seeing her like this, Chu Wenxuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Why didn't he realize before that his sister also had times when she wanted to say something but stopped herself from saying it?

"what is the problem?"

"Well... that is..." Chujiu moved closer to Chu Wenxuan and lowered his voice, "Will it be troublesome when taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill?"

Chu Wenxuan was puzzled: "Trouble?"

"That's right, is there any need for some kind of elixir that can be used together with the medicine?" Chujiu whispered.

Chu Wenxuan was amused by her cautious look: "That's not necessary, just take some spiritual medicine that nourishes the body and soul, and then rest in a place with abundant spiritual energy for a while, then the body will fully absorb the medicinal properties of the marrow cleansing pill."

"Ah?" Chujiu felt guilty.

It was not easy to get the marrow cleansing pill that she had been longing for, but she still needed these things. Where could she find them? Spiritual medicines that nourish the body? Do snow fruit and yellow dragon fruit count? Even if they count, there is no place with abundant spiritual energy for her to stay. It would be easy for her to be discovered.

This is how to do?

Isn't this just like a beggar holding a large ingot of gold but not daring to use it?

Looking at the disappointment on Chujiu's face, even a smart man like Chu Wenxuan had already guessed most of what was going on.

Although he was not sure, and felt a little bit unbelievable and confused, he hoped it was true.

"Xiaojiu, go back to Taoyuan first. I'll come to find you later." Chu Wenxuan smiled and touched Chujiu's head as usual.

"Huh?" Monk Chujiuerzhang was puzzled, but seeing that Chu Wenxuan turned around and went to the group of soldiers on the training ground after he finished speaking, he had no choice but to go back to Taoyuan obediently.

A few minutes later, Chujiu and Chu Wenxuan sat face to face at the table in Chujiu's bedroom.

Neither of them spoke, and for a moment they could clearly feel the surroundings were particularly quiet. If a needle fell to the ground at this moment, it would probably make a sound.

Awkward……

Why aren’t you talking?

Chu Wenxuan sat for a while, then stood up and closed the door of Chujiu's bedroom. To ensure that everything was safe, he used a secret technique to completely isolate the inside of the house from the outside world. After everything was done, he returned to his seat and sat down.

For the first time, I looked at Chujiu with extreme seriousness.

Chu Jiu saw all of Chu Wenxuan's actions. Although she didn't know exactly what he was doing, she could still guess roughly.

My heart skipped a beat and I shouted in my mind: This is bad! Has she been exposed? This is the end! Could he know about this?

She asked tentatively: "Brother, what are you doing?"

No, please don't tell him that he knew. She hasn't figured out how to explain it yet.

Chu Wenxuan said seriously: "Xiaojiu, tell me the truth, do you have the marrow cleansing pill?"

Boom! ! !

Thunder rolled in above Chujiu's head and blew her to pieces.

He, he, he! He actually guessed it! Which words did she say that gave it away? Which action? That expression?

In fact, after Chujiu asked him about the Marrow Cleansing Pill that day, he also went to find his father and mother, but they told him that if he wanted to change Chujiu's qualifications, only the Marrow Cleansing Pill could do it. But the Marrow Cleansing Pill was so rare.

Although there are many alchemists in the world, I heard that most of them are of the sixth rank or below, and the seventh rank is very rare, not to mention the tenth rank.

Although their family has an alchemist, he is only a sixth-grade alchemist. Where can they get her one?

Hearing Chu Wenxuan ask her in such a sure tone, she could only sigh and admit it: "Yeah."

As he spoke, he took out the marrow cleansing pill. When he opened the lid of the box, the rich aroma of the tenth-grade pill filled the entire bedroom. The pill, which was the size of a glass bead, emitted a warm golden light, and there were some moving red lines on it.

"!!!"

This time it was Chu Wenxuan's turn to be shocked.

He really didn't expect that she actually got the marrow cleansing pill. If this gets out, how many people will come to grab it? Even if they don't dare to do it openly, they will steal it in secret.

At this moment, countless questions flashed through Chu Wenxuan's mind.

How could his sister have such an opportunity after he hadn't seen her for three years? And from what his father and mother said, she changed only after she escaped from the Abyss Valley. What on earth did Xiaojiu encounter?

Escape from death?

Could it be... No, it's impossible. If that were the case, she wouldn't have any memories of the past.

She must still be Xiaojiu.

But where did she get this marrow cleansing pill? I have to find out.

"Xiao Jiu, where did this marrow cleansing pill come from?"

Well, look, look, she asked. How should she answer? Say, it fell from the sky? Oh, you must be kidding.

"Uh...this...I said, an old man gave it to me, do you believe it?" Chujiu felt guilty.

"..." Chu Wenxuan stared at Chu Jiu without saying anything. He seemed to be thinking.

Seeing that Chu Wenxuan didn't say anything, Chujiu wanted to make a final struggle, otherwise she wouldn't be able to explain herself clearly.

So he lowered his head and said helplessly: "I knew no one would believe me even if I told them."

Unexpectedly, Chu Wenxuan asked, "What kind of old man?"

“?!” He wouldn’t really believe it, right?

Okay, let’s make one out of nothing.
