Chapter 107: Qingming Tribulation (2)

At the same time when Zhu Shihua explained the "Juemai Heart Sutra" to Pu Zixuan, in the courtyard of Wangyou Hall, Chen Shuqing was humming a small song, focusing on pounding herbs with a stone mortar. Under the scorching sun, fine beads of sweat oozing out from herbs on his forehead, and he wiped them with his sleeves from time to time.

Shaoqing, after a mortar was finished, Chen Shuqing shouted to the pharmacy: "Mother-in-law, the pounding is done."

Wu Youxiang walked slowly to Chen Shuqing and smiled kindly: "Oh, my Miss Shuqing is really a good person when she starts her life. I'm so embarrassed. You are obviously a patient, but you still have to trouble you to work for us. I'm ashamed, ashamed!"

Chen Shuqing smiled and said, "What are you saying? I wanted to do something, so I took the initiative to find some work. Anyway, I am idle, so I just think it's filial piety to my mother-in-law. After a while, I will go to the backyard to fertilize the flowers and plants."

"Okay, come on, give me your hand, I'll help you see." Wu Youxiang pulled Chen Shuqing's right hand again, took the pulse, and said lightly, "No, good, your pulse is already very stable, and the wound has almost healed. Three days later, it will be the full moon night, and the demonic power will recover and will be completely healed. In this short time, I will continue to do breathing therapy with you to consolidate."

Chen Shuqing was a little disappointed: "Then, mother-in-law, are we going to part?"

Wu Youxiang grinned and said, "Miss Shuqing, I thought about what you told me that day for a long time. Should I go with you? I always sway between going or not. But last night, I had a dream and was about to take time to talk to you."

"Okay, mother-in-law, you said."

"Yesterday, the left road came to my dream, in this yard, where we lived together for more than 20 years, he still looked so young and so healthy. He saw me and said with a smile that he was living well there, so that I didn't worry, and then said twelve words to me."

"What twelve words?"

"He said: 'The lower-level doctors treat people, traditional Chinese medicine treats diseases, and the higher-level doctors treat the country.' Then he asked me: 'Yuexiang, do you want to be a good doctor and save the world? Is the original intention of still there?'"

"Medical country? This is the first time I have heard of this statement." Chen Shuqing was entertaining.

Wu Youxiang said melancholy: "Oh, I woke up from my dream immediately and was already full of tears. I wanted to listen to him say a few more words, but he left again. I sat alone on the head of the bed, thinking in my heart that when I first met him, I often talked to him that my dream was to become the best doctor in the world, save the people of the world, and let other people's families have less hardships like us. But today, I find more and more that I am wrong. If the country is so broken and the monsters are so rampant, what can my little medical skills change for the people of the world... Miss Shuqing, I decided, if I don't dislike my old bones, I will follow you."

When Chen Shuqing heard this, she jumped up happily and hugged Wu Youxiang tightly: "That's great! Mother-in-law, from now on, we will be your relatives, thank you!"

Wu Youxiang patted Chen Shuqing's back and said with relief: "Don't thank me. If you want to thank me, thank my husband for the left. He pointed out the direction for me and made me understand that a doctor can do more for the world. Well, three days later, when you recover your demonic power, we will go to the Fairy Sword Hall to meet Pu Zixuan together. Don't make trouble with him anymore."

"I understand, mother-in-law, don't worry, hehe!" Chen Shuqing was excited and worried, "By the way, mother-in-law, what should Li Zhong, Qingxia, Xiaoyan and the others do? If you don't have the sign of Wangyoutang, they can't hold on."

Wu Youxiang had already made arrangements for the future of the three of them and said earnestly: "Haha, they are all three, I have talked to them early this morning. Do you think they are willing to serve me, an old woman, for the rest of your life? Those two girls and Li Zhong were reluctant to stay at the foot of the mountain in order to repay their kindness. Because of my hungry ghost disease, they have been tortured enough. They are not that they don't want to leave, but they are afraid that once I get sick and no one takes care of me, they can only wait for death. Now that my stubborn disease has been eliminated, they are relieved. Girls are going to get married sooner or later. As for Li Zhong, I have learned a lot from me and have already had the ability to start their own business. So when I told them about my plans, they all expressed their support, and I don't have to drag them down anymore. I feel relieved."

Chen Shuqing said happily: "That's great. After hearing what my mother-in-law said, I have no shame in them. I hope they have a bright future."

Wu Youxiang looked around the courtyard with melancholy and sighed, "A beautiful future? Alas, I have been in this courtyard since I was born. In those days, there were no foreigners, no rebels, and no monsters. I always feel that the world is simple, full of birds and flowers, so being a doctor and protecting the health of the people is a great fortune. Now the world is full of devastation, and people's hearts are not the same. Sometimes when is the mission of this courtyard? I think it is time to end in this chaotic era?"

Chen Shuqing said: "The Qing Dynasty lasted for more than two hundred years, and I even watched how it became like this step by step. Although dynasty changes and social turmoil are eternal laws, I vaguely feel that the whole world is changing, and this great turmoil is different from all dynasties. Maybe later generations will create a new world. We can't do anything, but at least we can stop the demon world from causing chaos in the world and let humans choose the world they want."

Wu Youxiang smiled and said, "Miss Shuqing said so well. I, an old lady, have also developed a sense of mission for this... Okay, you keep busy. I'll go to the kitchen to prepare dinner. If you don't fill your stomach, how can we achieve our grand goal, hehe."

Chen Shuqing looked at Wu Youxiang's back as she walked back to the wing room, and suddenly felt that the old woman's steps were no longer as staggering as before, as if she had found her life goal again and was twenty years younger.

It was almost noon. Chen Shuqing retracted her thoughts and was about to return the pounded medicinal materials. He rushed to the direction of the pharmacy and shouted: "Qingxia, Xiaoyan, please come here!"

After a while, without receiving a response, Chen Shuqing couldn't help but shout again: "Qingxia-Xiaoyan-Are you here?"

Seeing that the pharmacy still did not respond, Chen Shuqing was puzzled. Just over half an hour ago, although Li Zhong went out to visit the grave, Qingxia and Xiaoyan had been busy in the pharmacy. Even if they temporarily left Chen Shuqing's sight, they would not leave without saying goodbye.

Then, maybe they went to the back door. Chen Shuqing thought so, and walked towards the back door while continuing to shout: "Qingxia-Xiaoyan-"

"Are you looking for these two women?" Suddenly, a strange man's voice came from the roof of the pharmacy.

Before Chen Shuqing could react, in front of him, the bodies of two women fell to the ground lifelessly from the roof, spitting blood in his mouth. They were Qingxia and Xiaoyan!

Then, a little boy flashed from the roof at a speed that was lightning speed to Chen Shuqing and asked, "Where is the descendant of Pu Songling?"

This little boy is the weird boy who appeared in Guiping Market before.

Chen Shuqing suddenly felt like she was struck by lightning. An indescribable sense of fear spread throughout her body. She covered her mouth and shouted, "Qingxia-Xiaoyan-"

"Save some effort, they are dead." The little boy said indifferently.

"Who are you? Why do you kill them?"

Intuition tells Chen Shuqing that an ordinary little boy cannot have the ability to kill two adult women silently. This little boy must be transformed by a monster, and his ability is beyond imagination!

At this time, Wu Youxiang, who was originally busy in the wing room, heard the sound and rushed out. Seeing this, she was so scared that she collapsed to the ground: "What's going on..."

The little boy glanced at Wu Youxiang, too lazy to pay attention to it, and then said to Chen Shuqing: "Don't you know who I am? No wonder... Do you know why I turned into a child? You and the one named Pu fled from Sichuan to Guangxi, making it easy for me to find it. After using all my money, I had to become like this and save some food."

Chen Shuqing said tremblingly: "I know who you are..."

The little boy smiled and said, "It's good to know, I don't like this look either."

With a word, the voice became vigorous, and the little boy's body gradually grew and deformed, gradually turning into a monster full of muscles, green face and fangs, and horns on his head. The monster was more than ten feet tall. Looking closely, there was a string of skulls hanging around his neck!

"Drought Bah! They are innocent!" Chen Shuqing shouted.

"Humans are nothing more than food, and it doesn't matter whether they are innocent or not." After Hanba said that, he had already opened his bloody mouth and swallowed the Qingxia corpse on the ground into his stomach.

The drought bald was eating, and a red ghost climbed up on his shoulders. Compared with the drought bald's huge size, it looked inconspicuous.

"Fu Yan!"

This is exactly the Fu Yan that Chen Shuqing and the other two defeated in Sichuan before. Fu Yan laughed and said, "Hehe, Nine-tailed Fox, I just accompanied King Hanba here and did not do anything bad."

Chen Shuqing immediately understood everything. After Fu Yan reported the news, Hanba came to Sichuan from the north to chase Pu Zixuan. The two thought it would be safe to leave Sichuan. Unexpectedly, Hanba, one of the demon kings, was so unwilling to give up on Pu Songling's descendants. They chased them all the way to Wangyou Hall, causing two women to die tragically!

After a full meal, Hanba licked his lips and said, "Nine-tailed Fox, why did the young boy surnamed Pu and the breath of Liuquan Yagi disappear? I just came to find him, and I have no interest in you, the little demon. If you tell me his whereabouts, I will not make things difficult for you."

When Chen Shuqing heard this, he immediately thought, as both monsters, Hanba naturally could not sense himself. He just followed the purification power on the fragments of Pu Zixuan and the "Huanyue Jue" to Guangxi. Now Pu Zixuan is hiding in the Fairy Sword Hall, and the fragments of "Huanyue Jue" are temporarily sealed in his body and the demonic energy. No wonder Hanba could not find anything, so he had to ask passers-by all the way to find Wangyou Hall. After all, that day, Chen Shuqing said on the street that he was coming here, and all the passers-by who sold candied haws could hear it clearly.

Now Qingxia and Xiaoyan have gone, and people cannot be resurrected when they die, but at least, they can still protect Pu Zixuan.
