Chapter 9 The Thought of Accepting Disciples

After everything was arranged, Lin Lixia went to cook a pot of porridge, and had dinner with Su He with some pickles.

After the two washed up, they went to bed early.

Su He was held in Lin Lixia's arms and slept very deeply.When she was the Chaos Spirit Tree, sleeping was just a pastime, but now, sleeping is a kind of enjoyment for her.

The next day, Lin Lixia woke up early in the morning.

She didn't call Su He when she woke up, but cleaned the inside and outside of the house by herself. When Su He got up, Lin Lixia was already preparing breakfast.

"Mom." Su He jumped out of bed, ran to Lin Lixia's side and looked up at her.

Lin Lixia smiled gently, and patted her on the head: "Okay, eat quickly, Mom will take you to the mountain later."

Su He nodded.

The two quickly ate, and went out together, walking towards the path up the mountain that Lin Lixia remembered.

Lin Lixia only remembered that she came here a few times when she was a child, and after her father passed away, she never went up the mountain again.I remember that her relative's temper was very weird, except for her father, she hardly talked to anyone, and spent the whole day buried in the small courtyard, playing with the flowers and plants.

At that time, she was still young and ignorant, so she ran to ask her father why this grandpa was locked in the small courtyard all day and did not go out to play.

At that time, her father patted her on the head, sighed, and said earnestly: "It's all this harmful world!"

Later, her father seldom told her about that relative, and she gradually forgot about it.

Unexpectedly, because of her daughter's illness, there would be a time to visit this relative again.

Lin Lixia's memory is very good, the road is not short, but also twists and turns, and there are paths everywhere, but after walking for nearly an hour, she did not make any mistakes.

After walking for another half an hour, Lin Lixia was so tired that she couldn't even lift her feet.

Fortunately, at this time, the small courtyard in Lin Lixia's memory was already visible.

Seeing the outline of the small courtyard, Lin Lixia perked up again, and her feet moved a little faster.

Su He lay on Lin Lixia's shoulders, tilted his head and looked at Lin Lixia's sweaty side face, and couldn't help but move in his heart.

She put her hand on Lin Lixia's back, and the life energy gathered in her palm poured into Lin Lixia's body.

She controlled the amount of life energy, so Lin Lixia couldn't feel much change, but felt that her eyes were much clearer, and her feet were not as heavy as before. She didn't have any doubts, step by step toward Go to the small courtyard.

And the life energy that Su He consumed, because it was in this deep mountain, recovered quickly.

According to her current body, she can't hold too much life energy, just such a small consumption makes her exhausted.

If she hadn't just regained the ability to manipulate the life energy when she saw that boy in the hospital that day, and the overloaded life energy had gathered in her body, she would not have been able to condense the new heart and saved his life.

Lin Lixia quickly carried Su He to the gate of the courtyard.

This small courtyard is not an ordinary small farmyard, but is built with high walls and a large double wooden door.

Lin Lixia walked over, knocked lightly on the door, and asked in a low voice, "Excuse me... is anyone there?"

"What's the matter?" A deep and old voice suddenly sounded from behind Lin Lixia.

"Ah." Lin Lixia was startled, she carried Su He on her back, and took several steps back.

When she recovered from her surprise, her gaze fell on the old man in plain clothes who had just stood behind her and suddenly made a sound, her eyes widened.

He has white hair and beard, a ravine face, and a pair of eyes full of wisdom, his expression is very indifferent, with the vicissitudes of seeing through everything, and he is wearing a blue cloth, the cloth is not good, But when worn on him, there is a detached and elegant feeling.

He was carrying a small basket with some flowers and plants piled in it, and he was holding a medicine hoe, his hands were covered with mud, which added a bit of real feeling to him, a person full of fairy spirit.

Lin Lixia opened her mouth in surprise——

That's right, the person standing in front of her was the relative whom her father brought her to see back then, and he was also an old Chinese doctor.

However, for some unknown reason, after more than twenty years, the image of this old man is so clear in her heart, as long as she thinks about it, it will immediately emerge.

But at this time, this person stood in front of her alive.

But... why?This person is exactly the same as it was 20 years ago, nothing has changed at all!

It was as if time was passing by, but he was always there by himself!
Lin Lixia didn't hide her feelings. At this moment, she looked at the old man in amazement. She just stayed there, and her heart was gradually full of doubts and shocks——

Why...why didn't his appearance change?
"Who are you looking for?" The old man looked up at her, his voice hoarse.

There was endless indifference in his tone, and at this moment, he rejected people thousands of miles away.

Lin Lixia's body trembled, and she came back to her senses, and called out tentatively: "Are you... Grandpa Xuanqing?"

That's what she called him when she was little.

Lin Xuanqing raised his eyebrows when he heard her calling him that, and quickly recalled a person in his mind, and then matched up with the woman in front of him, and his expression softened a little. He raised his eyelids and looked at her: "Are you Lixia?"

The tone is also much gentler, not as indifferent as before.

Seeing Lin Xuanqing thinking of herself, Lin Lixia couldn't help laughing: "Yes, I am Lixia, Grandpa Xuanqing, I haven't come back to see you for a long time, you really haven't changed at all!"

Lin Xuanqing raised her eyebrows slightly, but she didn't say anything because of her words, but bypassed Lin Lixia and opened the door of the small courtyard: "If you have anything to say, let's go in and talk."

"Well, good!" Lin Lixia supported Su He behind her, and walked into the small courtyard.

As soon as she stepped here, Lin Lixia was startled. She saw that the spacious courtyard in front of her was full of flowers and plants, and there were many flowers and plants in their appearance. It was very strange. Not like ordinary flowers and plants.

In fact, Lin Lixia didn't know that the plants that crowded the small courtyard were not the flowers and plants she thought they were, but herbs.On the shelf next to it, there is still a dustpan with some traditional Chinese medicine drying on it.

These things can be regarded as Lin Xuanqing's painstaking efforts. He has lived in seclusion in this mountain for most of his life, never took a step, and devoted all his time to these herbs.
