Looking back, they saw the cold and fairy-like senior sister looking at them expressionlessly, with an empty medicine bowl on the table next to her.
She drank the medicine a little quickly, and her mood was as anxious as Yan Qin's.
"Then you go inside and lie down first. I'll push my senior sister in as well. It's getting a little dark."
Ye Xun seemed unable to feel Yan Qin's direct gaze, and his tone and actions remained natural.
No matter why she drank the medicine in such large gulps, it would not be a bad thing for Ye Xun as long as he could be sure that Yan Qin had not really lost her desire and was heartbroken.
Lin Qingxuan thought she had misheard until Ye Xun passed her and pushed Yan Qin's wheelchair into the door. She swallowed in disbelief.
"Wait, Brother, isn't this too fast? The reward I want is just..."
For Lin Qingxuan, being patted on the head or praised by her wooden senior brother was the limit of what she could imagine.
She was totally unprepared, her face flushed red.
Ye Xun's words suddenly woke her up.
"Don't think too much. You are injured. Let me take a look at your wound."
Lin Qingxuan blinked in a daze.
Not knowing whether she was feeling relieved or regretful, or both, Lin Qingxuan suddenly woke up from her guilty conscience and watched Ye Xun carefully secure Yan Qin's wheelchair.
Ye Xun placed a candlestick on the table next to Yan Qin within easy reach, so that the little light would not let his senior sister fall into a lonely corner where no one cared about her.
Yan Qin glanced at the empty teacup on the table and twitched her lips slightly:
"water."
When Ye Xun nodded, he bent down to put down the tea beside his senior sister. Yan Qin coughed twice and uttered a few cold words:
"Brother, I'm tired."
Under the white Taoist uniform, the cuffs that were clenched by Yan Qin's hands were almost wet, but she still looked calm on the outside.
She didn't want to show her intention to see the guest off so obviously, but Lin Qingxuan's appearance still made Yan Qin feel a sense of crisis.
The last time she had this feeling was when she fell from the clouds and lost her cultivation.
She suddenly realized that she seemed to be afraid of losing Ye Xun.
"Sister, please drink slowly this time. Be careful not to get burned."
Ye Xun did not respond directly, he had his own thoughts.
Normally, whether taking care of Yan Qin or trying new prescriptions, a large amount of spiritual stones and medicinal materials would be consumed.
My senior sister’s previous savings were all spent on their living expenses and buying medicine about half a year ago.
If he doesn't save up some spirit stones during the consultation, it will be difficult for him to execute his plan of escaping later.
Lin Qingxuan sat on the edge of the bed, swinging her little feet, and pursed her lips as she watched Ye Xun carefully taking care of Yan Qin.
It will take a long time to wait... She slowly began to understand how hard it is to take care of someone, and she couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw her senior brother's back.
But when she remembered that she had just won first place in the competition, the girl smiled foolishly with a bit of complacency.
After I officially become the chief, I will definitely ask the elders to accept me as his disciple. This way, I won't have to work so hard to see so many patients every day.
"Okay, Junior Sister, stretch out your hand. I'll check your pulse."
After tidying up everything, Ye Xunchong stretched out his right hand to Lin Qingxuan.
"Oh, how's it going, brother?"
Lin Qingxuan blinked and looked at him shyly until Ye Xun removed his fingers from her pulse.
"Don't worry, it's just that your Qi Sea is a little disordered. Just use some regulating breath powder and it will be fine. I'll also prescribe some blood stasis cream for you. Remember to apply it on time when you go back to avoid leaving scars."
"Brother, can you help me apply the medicine?"
Still unable to hold back from revealing her little thoughts of intimacy, the girl blushed as she secretly sized up Ye Xun's expression.
An inaudible inhalation sound was heard, interrupting Lin Qingxuan's words.
The two looked in the direction of the voice and saw Yan Qin gently putting the teacup aside and sitting in a wheelchair with her eyes lowered.
Chapter 3: The Junior Sister's Emotional Deterioration
The tea was indeed very hot, Ye Xun was right.
Lin Qingxuan swallowed nervously and shook her head to reorganize her interrupted thoughts.
"Because many of the wounds are on my back and I can't reach them, I would like to ask my senior brother for help."
It's really a reason to be greedy, but Ye Xun almost never gives medicine to anyone other than himself.
Yan Qin thought to herself, and picked up the teacup without changing her expression.
Ye Xun glanced at the darkening sky outside the window.
It didn't take long to apply the medicine to Lin Qingxuan. Since there was a charge for the extra service anyway, he didn't mind making a little extra money and getting rid of the girl quickly at the same time.
"Then just lie down."
Lin Qingxuan's eyes widened in surprise, and she shamefully and slowly took off the clothes on her shoulders.
Yan Qin's hand trembled slightly as she sat in the wheelchair, and the white mist from the hot tea swayed slightly.
After all, Ye Xun is a doctor, so it is normal for him to experience such a scene.
She took a deep breath, convinced herself, and nodded.
"Sigh~"
The cold ointment was gently applied to the wound, stimulating Lin Qingxuan so much that she couldn't help but scream out. Of course, this moan was not only due to the pain, but also due to the girl's shyness.
Although the injured area was not a private part, Lin Qingxuan felt her heart beat faster when Ye Xun's fingers touched her skin.
Regardless of the girl's psychological activities, objectively speaking, the contact was not intimate. Yan Qin pretended to stare at the teacup in her hand and felt relieved.
"The injury is not serious. I'll pack some breathing powder for you to take back. It's one spirit stone in total."
"What? You want more spirit stones? Isn't that a reward?"
"Brother, I personally applied the medicine to you, how come it's not a reward? If it were someone else, I would have asked him to take the medicine back and apply it himself."
Lin Qingxuan was almost amused by Ye Xun's serious look.
"No wonder everyone in the sect calls you a money-grubber."
The girl put on her clothes angrily, handed over the spirit stone, and watched Ye Xun put it away carefully.
However, this Senior Brother Ye is as dull as ever. Thinking of this, the scene of Ye Xun taking care of Yan Qin before didn’t seem so painful anymore.
How could a money-hungry wooden man like my senior brother possibly have feelings for Senior Sister Yan?
Yan Qin, who was resting with her eyes closed in a wheelchair, had an imperceptible smile on her lips.
Even if one spirit stone was cheap for her, who did she think she was, Ye Xun's Taoist partner?
Ye Xun didn't care about Lin Qingxuan's reaction. He disregarded the friendship among his fellow disciples and charged a high consultation fee every time he saw a patient and prescribed medicine. One reason was that the materials of the medicine were indeed of good quality.
The second reason is to leave.
Because he unlocked the prescription in the remaining scroll of the Heavenly Book that allowed Senior Sister Yan Qin to stand up.
It’s just that Ye Xun was missing one of the herbs. After curing Yan Qin, he should set off to find the next patient.
The Heavenly Dao Book suggests that the next person with a stubborn disease is probably in Borneo in the south, which is not very close to the Taiwu Sect located in the Hanging Island in the west.
If I don't save more money, I might not even be able to afford a ticket for the fairy boat to Borneo.
"Forget it. It just so happens that I have some news about the thing you asked me to find out last time."
After being humiliated by this man again and again, even someone as good-tempered as Lin Qingxuan had to temporarily puff up her face and change the subject.
"Has the Nanming Secret Realm really reopened recently?" Ye Xun asked.
"Yes, recently the sect is looking for disciples to form a team to go to the secret realm for training. But..." Lin Qingxuan asked curiously, "Brother, you stay in the sect all year round, and occasionally go out to collect herbs nearby. Why are you suddenly concerned about the secret realm trial?"
Ye Xun sighed.
"I need a few special soul orchids, but I can't find them. I heard that such herbs grow in the environment of the Nanming Secret Realm, so I asked Junior Sister to find out about the secret realm for me."
Seeing Lin Qingxuan staring at him with a little confusion, Ye Xun could only shrug.
"How about I bring him back to you? If the sect organizes a team for this secret realm, I will definitely be included."
After hearing Ye Xun's reasons, Lin Qingxuan smiled confidently. This was the confidence that winning first place in the competition gave her. Unfortunately...
Lin Qingxuan found that Ye Xun's expression didn't change at all.
Ye Xun seemed to not care at all about cultivation, and the first place he got did not cause much reaction from anyone.
"I won't bother you with that. Soul orchids are not easy to preserve, and we need to observe the environment to determine where they grow. It takes time to find them. I will go there in person when the secret realm is opened this time."
Ye Xun packed up the bottles and jars, and he was confident about entering the secret realm.
Every time a serious illness was cured, the book would give more than just a new prescription. The warm current that Ye Xun felt would also enhance his strength.
On the surface, he is just a weak doctor, but in fact, his strength may not be weaker than Lin Qingxuan.
However, Lin Qingxuan came to the courtyard every now and then, and had never seen Ye Xun's true strength, so she was naturally a little worried.
I wanted to give him some heartfelt advice several times, but I hesitated because of his serious look.
"However, the selection day will be in a few days, and the list has not been finalized yet. If Senior Pharmacist Brother insists on selecting you, I can ask the elder to take you with me. You just need to follow me when the time comes..."
Yan Qin was nearly scalded by the tea in the cup again. After sipping it for a long time, her senior sister put the cup down in frustration, making a crisp sound.
It’s not that Yan Qin is stingy and can’t tolerate other geniuses. She is just a little worried that Ye Xun will not be able to resist the temptation, so she deliberately made some noises to remind him.
No one would be attentive to others for no reason. It may seem like there is a reward for nothing, but behind it there must be a favor that is the hardest to repay.
"That's not necessary. I will naturally find a way to get a place. Junior sister, don't worry."
Ye Xun shook his head without hesitation, and Lin Qingxuan sighed silently in her heart.
Whether he was truly confident or simply being reserved, Ye Xun refused so decisively that her prepared words got stuck on her lips. She felt depressed and didn't know where to start.
Ye Xun knew that he would eventually leave, so he naturally wouldn't have to care what Lin Qingxuan would think then.
"It's getting late. There's also a celebration banquet for Junior Sister tonight, right? If you, the protagonist, aren't there, the elders will be worried."
"Really... I'll save some wine from the celebration party for you, brother. Remember to come up and drink when you have time."
Knowing that Ye Xun would not be able to follow her up the mountain, Lin Qingxuan's face became a little gloomy again and she walked out.
Lin Qingxuan left, but Yan Qin found that she didn't feel much relieved.
Even when Ye Xun moved her from the wheelchair to the bed, she was still thinking about what Ye Xun and Lin Qingxuan had just said.
Fortunately, as the person who has been with Ye Xun the longest, she can see that the boy's strength has grown rapidly during this period, and he has the ability to stand on his own.
Everyone has their own secrets. As long as Ye Xun doesn't go astray, Yan Qin won't interfere.
"The secret realm is dangerous, remember to be careful."
Yan Qin didn't speak for a long time, but her voice was still gentle, which seemed a little unreal in the originally quiet little house.
Ye Xun lowered his head and looked at this senior sister who usually hardly spoke a word.
She had been silent for more than a year, and usually looked absent-minded in front of everyone, only occasionally responding when Ye Xun took care of her daily life and took her medicine.
But Ye Xun was not surprised, because he knew that Yan Qin would not give up so easily.
Yan Qin would say similar things to his fellow junior fellow students every time before leading the team into the secret realm.
But now, the only one who is willing to listen is Ye Xun.
"Thank you for your concern, Senior Sister."
His calm attitude was reassuring, and he did not show even the slightest sign of being moved in the face of Lin Qingxuan's hospitality.
This is what Yan Qin finds most curious about Ye Xun.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the genius junior sister should be the better choice.
He chose himself unwaveringly.
Yan Qin couldn't help but curl the corners of her mouth slightly, but when she thought of Ye Xun's imminent departure, she suddenly felt reluctant.
If this body could still move, she would definitely go with Ye Xun.
