Chapter 219 She Had Embarrassed Herself
Not long after, Li Xuan, who was dressed in black after taking a shower, walked out. His cute red lips and white teeth instantly attracted Song Keler’s gaze.
“Eh? You’re really cute. I thought you were pretty cute before, but I didn’t expect you to be even cuter than I thought.”
Song Ke’er looked at Li Xuan in surprise. She was very surprised by Li Xuan’s appearance.
After that, the two of them introduced themselves and chatted with each other for a while. Gradually, they became familiar with each other.
Li Xuan told her a lot of what he had seen and heard in the outside world, which also made Song Ke’er look forward to it.
After getting familiar with it, Li Xuan looked at the shop and could not help but say, “How are you going to manage the shop? I searched around the shop, but there was nothing in it except a big Alchemy Furnace. Even rats would leave with tears in their eyes.”
“I… I’m going home. I’ll leave some living expenses for you later. Just help me keep an eye on the shop. Although there’s nothing here, I hope that my shop will always exist.”
Song Ke’er explained dejectedly, her eyes filled with unwillingness.
It was the first time she had made a bet with her father, but she had lost miserably. If it were not for her father giving her some living expenses every month, she would not even be able to eat.
“You’re letting a stranger like me handle this. Don’t you worry?” Li Xuan raised his eyebrows.
“Don’t worry. Your eyes are very pure. Grandfather said that you can trust such a person. There’s nothing in the stores and The deed to the house is with me. You can’t sell it either.”
“After a period of time, I’ll give you living expenses. Only a fool will leave.” Song Ke’er raised her small head confidently.
“Alright, then leave some Alchemy books for me. I want to learn by myself.” Li Xuan probed.
“How old are you? How can a child learn alchemy by himself? Forget it, since you want to learn, then I’ll leave some books for you. It’s not worth much anyway.”
After Song Ke’er finished speaking, she waved her white and tender left hand. In an instant, five books and some money appeared on the shabby counter.
(Basic Materials Science] , [Basic Medicinal Pills Science), (Basic Pharmacology], [Basic Medicinal Pills Analysis ) , (Alchemy 3000 questions].
“I’ll give you these basic books. I’ve already learned them anyway, so there’s no point in keeping them,” Song Ke’er said with a little pride.
These books could be bought on the market. She often tore and played with these books in her family’s warehouse when she was young, so in her eyes, these books were worthless.
“Have you learned all of them? Reading such thick books is quite impressive.” Li Xuan was surprised.
“Of course. I’m a little genius. I’ll teach you now. For example, this.”
Song Ke’er took out a blue material from the ring on her left hand and said, “This is a Blue Moon Flower. It likes moonlight the most. Most of the places where it grows are in the canyon.”
“Canyon? No way. I’ve seen this kind of plant before. I’ve seen it on the peak of the mountain.” Li Xuan frowned and questioned.
“Eh? How is that possible? I remember it was a canyon.”
Song Ke’er hurriedly took the Basic Materials Science book and quickly flipped through it. When she saw that the place where the materials grew was on the peak of the mountain, she was embarrassed.
“I… I remembered wrongly. We were talking about another kind of plant. This is the Blue Wolf Fruit, and the Blue Wolves often eat this kind of fruit. It seems… it seems to have some effect?”
Song Ke’er’s beautiful brows were tightly knitted together. She could not recall what it was for a moment.
“Detoxification. Wolves will eat it after being bitten by snakes. I saw this scene outside the city yesterday,” Li Xuan casually replied.
Song Ke’er, “…”
The two of them fell silent. The atmosphere at the scene also became silent. It seemed a little awkward.
Originally, Song Ke’er wanted to show off, but in the end, she ended up losing face. The key was that she had lost face twice.
This made Song Ke’er extremely depressed. She even wanted to find a hole to hide in.
ven
“I just can’t remember for a moment.”
Song Ke’er clenched her fist a little arrogantly, preparing to take out the materials in the ring again.
However, looking at Li Xuan’s calm gaze, Song Ke’er finally gave up.
She had no choice. She did not want to lose face again. It was too embarrassing.
“Forget it, I’m leaving. I’ll come back to see you after a period of time. I’ll give you your living expenses and take good care of the shop. If you perform well, I’ll have a reward.”
After Song Ke’er finished speaking, she ran out of the shop as if she was running away. In just a short while, she had already run far away. “I didn’t expect that I would lose to a child. It’s too embarrassing.”
Song Ke’er was extremely depressed. She finally understood why she could not learn Alchemy. It was obvious that her foundation was not strong enough. “When I go back and study the foundation properly, I might be able to learn Alchemy and refine powerful pills…”
“When that time comes, I’ll come back and let this little guy see how powerful I am. No matter what, I’m the granddaughter of the Divine Pill Sect’s third elder. I’m the most outstanding person.”
Song Keler muttered softly and prepared to go back and study hard.
After she made up her mind, Song Ke’er looked at a certain alley and said directly, “Grandma Song, Let’s go. I’ve already instructed the shop.”
“Sigh, this shop is empty. You can just leave it here. Do you really need someone to look after it?” An old voice rang out as a white-haired old woman walked over.
“Of course I do. This is my first time opening a shop. It’s very memorable. I’ll have to come back and take a look after a while,” Song Ke’er said, clenching her small fists.
“Okay, okay, okay. As long as you like it,” the old woman shook her head helplessly and continued.
“Your grandfather will definitely be very happy when he hears that you’re helping homeless children. When he was young, he was miserable, and he hated to see lonely children the most, especially children with pure eyes.”
“Yes, grandfather taught me from a young age to help the weak. I saw that Li Xuan was pitiful, so I helped him. Unfortunately, the sect doesn’t allow anyone to enter as they please.”
“Oh right, Li Xuan is really smart. He told me a lot about the outside world,” Song Ke’er said.
“Oh? Looks like he’s a child with a story. Tell me, what did he tell you?”
“Okay.”
In the pill shop, Li Xuan flipped through the Alchemy books while observing the two from God’s Perspective.
The moment he saw Song Ke’er’s sleeve, he had already guessed that she was related to the Divine Pill Sect. He could use this girl to think of a way to join the Divine Pill Sect.
In another month or so, the Divine Pill Sect would hold its annual disciple recruitment ceremony. At that time, he would have the opportunity to join the sect.
Thinking of this, Li Xuan picked up the Alchemy book and started reading. The more he read, the brighter his eyes became. He could not help but run to the Alchemy Room to try refining pills.
Time passed bit by bit. Soon, a rich medicinal fragrance filled the Alchemy Room and spread to the nearby streets.
A few burly men were walking on the streets when they suddenly stopped and sniffed.
“What is that smell so good? I feel my Spiritual Power surging. It seems that a high-quality medicinal pill has been refined,” a burly bald man said.
“Indeed, I also feel my Spiritual Power surging. Strange, how can there be an Alchemist in such a remote place?”?
“The point is, this Alchemist’s rank doesn’t seem to be low.” Another person carrying an axe asked in puzzlement.
“Let’s go and take a look.”
“Okay.”
The few of them continued to walk along with the pill fragrance. After confirming that the pill fragrance came from Song Keler’s medicinal pill shop, the few burly men stopped walking.
“This… how can this fragrance come from this shop? Could it be some kind of medicinal pill that swindles people? It’s just that the taste is good. Will something happen if I eat it?” the bald burly man said worriedly.
“It’s possible. Last time, that woman tricked me into eating a pill. In the end, I ran to the toilet more than twenty times and almost collapsed. Damn it, don’t go in here.” Another big-headed man said with lingering fear.
“But this fragrance is too strong. My Spiritual Power has been surging,” the bald man said hesitantly.
“Then don’t go in either. Unless you want to collapse and run to the toilet more than twenty times. I guess you don’t want to experience that feeling for the rest of your life.” The big-headed man immediately objected.
“This…”
The bald man was silent. He was also a little afraid, but the fragrance was too strong. He really could not bear to leave and wanted to go in to take a look.
Time slowly passed, and the fragrance of the pills in the medicine store became stronger and stronger. The few men could not bear it any longer.
Even the big-headed man swallowed his saliva and said, “Why don’t we go and take a look?”
“Didn’t you say never to go in?” someone replied. The big-headed man was the first to say that.
“I didn’t want to go, but it smells too good.”
