Looking for you in reincarnation

Some of the things in those bottles and jars were brought back from the city last night, and some were brought from Jiulian Mountain.

When Si He saw him wearing a pair of silver gloves and looking cautious and meticulous, it reminded her of the chemistry experiments she did when she was in school.

Looking at his busy figure, she did not disturb him. After all, one needs to be focused when doing these things. If one is not careful, it is easy to get hurt, which is quite dangerous.

Time passed by little by little, and the night wind outside the house continued to whistle.

Ning Ji never stopped and concentrated on refining the things until almost midnight, when he finally finished making the things and put them into bottles.

Only then did he realize that it was getting late. He looked at Si He, who was sitting not far away, and asked apologetically, "Are you sleepy?"

She shook her head. Maybe she had taken a nap in the afternoon, so she was still quite energetic.

"I'll be there soon." After saying that, he went outside to the yard, washed his hands, and changed his coat. Then he came in and carried her out to wash and go back to rest.

Si He had a lot to ask, so after returning to her room, she curiously asked, "Cousin, did you also learn to make dangerous liquid medicine by yourself?"

She knew that when he was in Taiyi Sect, he had secretly learned medical skills from the medical texts in the tombs in the back mountain, but seeing him refining these dangerous things tonight, it didn't seem like he had studied them on his own.

She had also read the books in the tomb, and there was no record of any information about dangerous drugs. So where did he learn it from?

Taiyi Sect doesn't seem to teach this kind of thing.

He said: "No, I learned it from my master in Taiyi Sect when I was young."

Si He became even more curious. She sat on the bed, staring at him with her bright eyes, not even a hint of sleepiness. "Can you tell me about your past? How old were you when you joined Taiyi Sect?"

The more you like someone, the more you want to know about his past.

He felt there was nothing to talk about the past, but she wanted to know, so he lay down with her and briefly recounted the past.

She fell asleep in his arms, smelling the faint medicinal scent on his body and listening to him.

"My parents were attacked by bandits when I was young. They died one after another after suffering serious injuries. Before he passed away, my father entrusted me to the Taiyi Sect. I was five years old at that time."

"At the time, the master who accepted me as his disciple was an elder of the Taiyi Sect. He had an eccentric personality and enjoyed researching medicine. Some of my abilities were learned from him. However, because his behavior didn't conform to the Taiyi Sect's rules, he was expelled from the sect when I was six years old. As a result, my situation in the Taiyi Sect was somewhat difficult."

In fact, his life was more than just difficult at that time. Because of his master, he was excluded from Taiyi Sect and almost died many times due to the pranks of his fellow disciples. The sect leader and a group of elders turned a blind eye to him and even deliberately suppressed him because of their anger towards their master. It was only because of the remaining dignity of the sect that they did not expel him.

"At that time, due to a prank by a fellow disciple, my face was almost ruined. Fortunately, my master secretly treated me and I was able to recover. So I started to disguise myself and keep a low profile during those years."

"Later, Master's conflict with the sect's people worsened. In the Taiyi Sect's back mountains, he fought with the then-leader. Unfortunately, Master died, and the leader was also seriously injured. He urgently needed some precious medicine, so he went to the tomb in the back mountains. It was then that I discovered this secret and secretly followed him."

"However, after entering the tomb, I was discovered. The Sect Leader immediately wanted to attack me, but his injuries were too severe, and I still had the medicine made by my master on me. I used that dangerous thing to kill the Sect Leader. I was seven years old at that time."

Ning Ji said it calmly, but she knew the danger involved.

"Later, the Taiyi Sect was in turmoil for a while due to the disappearance of its leader. To avoid the limelight, I took the initiative to work as a kitchen clerk. On weekdays, I mainly went to the back mountain to collect firewood. When I had free time, I would secretly go to the tomb to read those classics and practice martial arts."

"Not long after, the sect appointed a new leader, Hu Qing. However, he was even more sinister than the previous leader. He secretly liked to use some of his less qualified disciples as medicine men to test the new medicines he refined. For a period of time, many people died, but the reported causes of death were either accidents or encounters with danger."

"So, I only stayed in Taiyi Sect until I was twelve years old. I deliberately made a mistake and was expelled from the sect to avoid being targeted as a medicine man."

"After leaving Taiyi Sect, I returned to my hometown in Gucheng and relied on my ability to find and refine medicine to support myself..."

Listening to him talking about the past in such a nonchalant manner, Si He felt sorry for him. He had gone through so many hardships when he was a child!

It's not easy for him to grow to where he is now.

She felt a little heavy in her heart, but she didn't want to show such emotions, so after listening to him, she lay down and looked at him with admiration, "My cousin is amazing. He has grown up alone for so many years and is still so outstanding. I am so lucky to have met you."

Ning Ji looked at the beautiful little face in front of him with a smile in his eyes, and the unpleasant mood he had just felt when recalling the past also dissipated.

He hugged her tighter to himself and said, "I'm lucky to have met you."

"Really? I remember when we first met, you were quite cold and indifferent. You ignored me even though I tried to approach you. I begged you for a long time before you took me in."

Si He teased him, but it was precisely because of his indifference that she let down her guard a little.

There was accusation in her eyes and a pout on her face. Ning Ji softened his heart and admitted his fault to her, "Well, I was wrong. I was blind."

Si He raised a smug smile on her face, looking cute and adorable, "That's pretty good."

Ning Ji also smiled, and then couldn't help but kissed her cheek.

"Ah~ What are you doing?"

"I want to kiss you." He was so straightforward that it was a little cute.

She put her hands on his chest, stepped back a little, and joked: "Cousin, you really look like a playboy!"

"Naughty."

He wanted to reach out and scratch her nose, but as soon as he raised his hand, she subconsciously raised her head to prevent him from touching her.

However, she was lying on top of him, and this action caused the collar of her clothes to open a little, revealing her beautiful collarbone and fair skin.

Ning Ji glanced at it inadvertently, and a hint of darkness flashed in his eyes.

Her scent lingered around his nose, so alluring that his self-control was slowly crumbling.

But Si He was still unaware of it, and was proud of her quick reaction. She even reached out and poked his chest, "Cousin, you..."
