Chapter 165: The Sword Cultivator Cousin in the Immortal Cultivation Novel (27)
"Uh!"
Just as Yue Qian was worried for a while, she still didn't hear anything unusual inside. When she was about to put her worries at ease, Lin Xi's suppressed groan of pain suddenly came from the pharmacy.
"Miss Lin! What's wrong with you?" Yue Qian, who was about to sit down and rest for a while, was startled and asked hurriedly.
But after waiting for a while, not only did she not get any response from Lin Xi, the cries of pain coming from inside became more and more rapid, and occasionally there was one or two sounds of splashing water.
Yue Qian knew that this was the most painful time of the medicinal bath, so she hurriedly took out the jade talisman to seek help from Yu Xusheng. However, after she called out for a long time, Yu Xusheng seemed to have suddenly disappeared, and there was no response for a long time.
She wanted to seek help from the Sect Master and several other elders, but then she remembered that at this time, the Sect Master and several elders were probably in the Cangjian Hall discussing matters, and disciples were not allowed to disturb them unless it was an urgent matter.
Yue Qian pursed her lips, forced herself to calm down, and released her spiritual sense to explore the movements inside. She found that although Lin Xi's breath was a little disordered, there was no sign of being out of control. She could only give up this idea.
"Ms. Lin, please be patient. Fifth Uncle said that you will be fine after this period. Don't worry, I will always be with you outside." After calming down, Yue Qian felt much more at ease. She knew that there was nothing she could do now. She could only try to make her voice softer and comfort Lin Xi in a gentle voice.
But whether it was because her voice was too soft, or because Lin Xi inside was in too much pain, her words of comfort had no effect at all. Not only did Lin Xi's cries of pain not decrease, but they became more and more intense, mixed with her painful gasps.
Just when Yue Qian didn't know what to do, a clear voice like striking jade suddenly came from behind her, "Lin Xi, concentrate!"
The voice carried a soothing power, like a cool mountain breeze blowing across Songgang, and went into the pharmacy. Lin Xi's cries of pain seemed to be soothed by the voice, and suddenly became much quieter. Yue Qian turned around in surprise and looked at the person who came, "Big Brother!"
Wei Qingchuan was dressed in a snow-green suit. He was tall and straight, like a towering cedar tree. There was a calm aura around him, which instantly calmed Yue Qian's originally panicked heart.
She quickly looked at Wei Qingchuan and asked with some surprise, "The master has exempted you from punishment?"
She had actually thought about asking the senior brother for help just now, but then she changed her mind and remembered that the senior brother should be being punished in the hall at this moment. After being beaten with thirty sticks, he would probably be carried back, so how could he come to help Miss Lin?
Therefore, Yue Qian gave up the idea, but she never expected that the eldest senior brother actually came over by himself, and he seemed to be walking in a very confident manner, and did not look like he had been punished, so she asked this question.
Wei Qingchuan shook his head and did not explain the reason to her in detail. He just replied lightly, "The punishment will be postponed." As an explanation, without waiting for Yue Qian to ask again, he took out a jade-colored porcelain bottle from his arms.
The moment the porcelain bottle was opened, a refreshing fragrance instantly filled out, like lotus flowers after rain, new dew in the morning, the fragrance of orchids in a valley, and the breeze among bamboos. In just a moment, Yue Qian felt as if all her limbs were soaked in warm water, completely stretching out, and even her restless soul calmed down.
"Ningsi Incense?! Senior Brother, how did you get this?" Upon smelling the fragrance, Yue Qian no longer cared about why Wei Qingchuan postponed the punishment, and said in surprise with her eyes shining.
It's no wonder that she was so surprised. This Ningsi incense was made by the previous leader of Lingyun Sword Sect. It has the miraculous effect of clearing the mind and calming the soul. It is far superior to the Qingxin Pills they often take now.
However, although its efficacy was remarkable, the production process was extremely complicated and the raw materials required were extremely precious. Therefore, the head of the sect spent decades piecing together the recipe, and in the end only produced three bottles. He then destroyed the recipe because it was too extravagant.
By the time the three bottles of Ningsi Incense were passed to the current sect leader, Gu Hongzi, only one and a half bottles were left. Gu Hongzi was a person who wished he could break a piece of spirit stone into two pieces, so he guarded the Ningsi Incense very tightly, and apart from giving a few drops to a few elders, he was reluctant to give it out easily.
Yue Qian could smell it at once only because the Second Elder was always generous to his disciples. He distributed the few drops he got to several of his disciples. Yue Qian had used the drop she had when she was building her foundation. Although several years had passed, the fragrance that seemed to be engraved into her soul made her recognize it at once.
"My master gave it to me." Wei Qingchuan answered simply and then chanted a spell. A green liquid the size of a rice bead floated in the small porcelain bottle, and the fragrance in the air became stronger. Yue Qian had been holding her breath and watching Wei Qingchuan's movements carefully, but now she couldn't help but breathe in greedily.
The door of the pharmacy was pushed open a tiny crack by an invisible force, and then the drop of Ningsi Incense floated in through the crack. In an instant, the fragrance filled the air, and in just a moment, Lin Xi's cries of pain in the room disappeared completely.
Yue Qian quickly turned around and leaned against the door and shouted loudly: "Miss Lin, are you feeling better?"
There was a sound of water splashing inside, and then Lin Xi's somewhat weak voice floated out, "Master Yue, I'm much better. Although there is still some pain, it's still bearable."
"That's good. I'll keep an eye on the time. Soak for another quarter of an hour, and today's medicinal bath will be over. Just bear with it. My senior brother and I are outside with you."
"Big Brother? It's my cousin. Is my cousin here too?" There was obvious surprise in Lin Xi's tone.
"I'm here." Wei Qingchuan put away the porcelain bottle, his face still calm, but his tone revealed a gentleness that he himself had not noticed, "Don't be afraid."
Although there were only four short words, perhaps the Ningsi Incense really had a miraculous effect. Lin Xi's voice, which was a little hoarse from enduring the pain, came out in a low voice, "Okay, thank you cousin... and Taoist Yue."
