  Xiao Xuan also said that it was extremely difficult for the Beauty’s Grace to blossom and bear fruit. Generally speaking, a Beauty’s Grace will only bloom once in a lifetime and bear one fruit.

  Fruit.

  Lin Shu was very depressed, and even regretted why he hadn’t returned the Beauty’s Grace to Xiao Xuan in advance, so that it would safely end up in Northern Xia.

  Xiao Shao told him a few words of comfort, saying that in the future, he could find a new Beauty’s Grace plant. Moreover, the fruit only grew under his threat, and he was afraid that it had congenital defects, so even if it bore fruit, it may not have been useful.

  He also put the little antlers of the Beauty’s Grace plant under Lin Shu’s hand and let him touch it.

  This time, the antlers did not avoid his touch.

  Could it be that the plant was also sad as well?

  He had been unconscious for a long time, so now it was time for lunch. For the time being, they put aside Beauty’s Grace and went to have lunch with the aunt.

  After lunch, there was nothing to do in the afternoon. Villagers came to visit one after another. They were very curious about Xiao Shao, Lin Shu, and the things outside, and asked about a lot of things.

  Xiao Shao answered one by one and said that if it was not necessary, it was better not to go out of the mountains. Even if they want to go out, they have to wait until some years, when the world is too peaceful.

  The villagers also knew that fighting was not a good thing, and said they would not go out.

  From their conversations, Lin Shu could hear that these people had lived a peaceful and contented life for two hundred years, without worrying about food and clothing, and there were no external or internal disputes. They were all very simple and kind, and they spoke straightforwardly, which made people comfortable.

  A little girl asked, “Big brother, why do you wear a mask?”

  Xiao Shao: “I have burns on my face. I’m afraid it would scare others.”

  The little girl asked, “Big brother, what do you do outside?”

  Xiao Shao: “I am a musician who plays the flute for people.”

  “What about your wife?” The little girl asked again.

  “She plays the zither.”

  Lin Shu just listened to him.

  If a face that has never been seen by anyone can be burned, it will be an unprecedented wonder.

  A little boy jumped a few times, and finally asked, “Big brother, why don’t you have any babies? My sister is about the same age as you, and already has two babies!”

  Lin Shu: “.……”

  Shut up.

  Xiao Shao finally didn’t mention Yingying. Now, seeing a lively and lovely little girl, I’m afraid he will feel sad again, thinking of his dead daughter.

  Listening to Xiao Shao continuing to say nonsense, “My wife needs to take care of herself, so she doesn’t have time to take care of the children.”

  The little girl said, “Big brother is really nice.”

  Lin Shu thought, I believe in your nonsense.

  When Xiao Shao found out that both were men two days ago, the one thing Xiao Shao reacted to the most was that Yingying was gone. That night, he didn’t even dream of Junior Sister Shu, but of Yingying—though Lin Shu was very curious, how could this pair of father and daughter, who had never seen each other, could meet in a dream?

  He suddenly found himself not only helpless but also irritable. He always has complaints with Xiao Shao.

  It won’t work this way.

  He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

  Half a day later, the villagers and the little girl and the little boy were sent away, and the courtyard was finally quiet.

  The villagers were really very kind, but Lin Shu was not good at dealing with people. After half a day of being warmed up by everyone, his mind can’t help feeling a little dizzy.

  Xiao Shao asked, “Are you okay?”

  Lin Shu: “Not feeling very good.”

  Xiao Shao touched his head, “Let’s go to sleep.”

  After saying that, he seemed to remember something, “Soaking in hot springs can also relieve fatigue.”

  They went to the hot springs.

  The more they went south, the warmer they felt. It’s just the beginning of spring, but it’s like summer at this time&#k2014;&#k2014;this village is really strange.

  Lin Shu was dragged along a lot of mountain roads. It was said that on this mountain to the south, there were several hot spring pools of different sizes, with different colors and steaming mist. At a glance, it looks like a fairyland.

  When he arrived, Xiao Shao began to put herbs in the spring pond.

  Silver frost flowers with stems and roots, put a dozen of them, specialize in treating traumatic wounds, unicorn marrow, pour a large bottle.

  A small pill, there are no side effects, pour it in, while the big pill needs to be considered and put in seven or eight pills.

  Purple Cloud Survival Pill, put ten or so.

  Because Lin Shu had been proficient in Outer Alchemy, and Xiao Shao was not, so he wanted to ask if Lin Shu’s properties were in conflict with the medicines.

  The more Lin Shu listened to it, the more he felt that this was not a medicinal bath, it was simply a medicine maker.

  \r \r \r

  Even if a person who was seriously injured and dying was put in such a pool, he will be alive immediately. A person with broken limbs can grow limbs again after soaking in such water.

  Shao Gege is rich or Shao Gege is so rich.

  After putting all the medicine in, Xiao Shao said, “Now, it’s okay.”

  Lin Shu pressed his collar.

  Soaking in the hot springs, so naturally, you have to take off some clothes.

  If he is still Big Miss at this time, it will be a little more troublesome.

  Xiao Shao is of the same sex. It stands to reason that there is nothing wrong with taking a hot spring bath together, but he is still a little embarrassed.

  At this time, Xiao Shao said again, “Can you take it off yourself?”

  Lin Shu: “I can.”

  He untied the belt and then took off his robe.

  When he took it halfway, Lin Shu stopped.

  He said, “Are you looking at me?”

  Xiao Shao: “Yes.”

  Lin Shu looked in Xiao Shao’s direction–even though it was just a vague shadow, it didn’t hinder his intuition that someone was looking at him.

  He asked, “Why are you looking at me?”

  Xiao Shao: “This is the last chance.”

  Lin Shu: “?”

  “If you are a boy today, you are indeed a boy.”

  Lin Shu: “.……”

  He abruptly took off his outer robe, and then took off the middle layer of feather-woven clothes for protection against the cold, in order to crush the unrealistic fantasy in Xiao Shao’s mind.

  At this time, there was only a layer of snow-white silk shirt left over his body, which was quite empty when the wind blew.

  Xiao Shao: “I’ll take you down, be careful.”

  The hot spring pool was surrounded by naturally formed rocks with varying shapes and ruggedness.

  As soon as Lin Shu got down, he stepped out on empty air.

  Xiao Shao quickly grabbed his waist.

  Lin Shu hugged that arm in a hurry, and then he was taken back. The whole person fluttered for a while, and finally stopped with his back tightly clinging to Xiao Shao.

  Their skin was close to each other, and the warm touch made his scalp numb.

  Xiao Shao laughed again.

  Lin Shu: “.……”

  I’m afraid he will lose all his face in just a few days.

  “Why didn’t I find out……” Xiao Shao let him go and said, “that you are so amusing?”

  It’s not amusing at all.

  Lin Shu took a deep breath and walked forward cautiously.

  However, he can only ensure that he was careful enough to walk, but he could not predict how dangerous the distribution of stones in the pool under his feet was, not to mention the buoyancy of the water would make his feet unstable.

  After several successive accidents, Xiao Shao smiled and said, “Forget it.”

  Then he fished Lin Shu out of the water, carried him horizontally, and went to the other side of the hot spring. He found a flat and smooth stone with suitable depth and put him down.

  The water was very deep, and Lin Shu was very floating. It was hard to control his body and sit still.

  Xiao Shao asked, “Is this all right?”

  Lin Shu: “Yeah.”

  The water in the pool was very hot and slightly hot. The medicine had already taken effect, making the heat flow surging in his limbs.

  He remembered that there was also a spring pool at the back mountain of the Sword Pavilion.

  When he was a child, he practiced basic skills. He wielded his sword every day and practiced basic sword moves tens of thousands of times. It was harmful to his body, and he had to soak in the spring pool every three days.

  However, the spring pool was very cold, soaking in it, his whole blood seemed to be replaced with snow water.

  Lin Shu curled up his knees and put his arms around them in a daze.

  This was his usual action when he used to soak in the spring pool of the Sword Pavilion.

  He felt Xiao Shao looking at himself again.

  Lin Shu tilted his head.

  Then Xiao Shao pinched his face.

  Lin Shu: “?”

  Shao Gege, you weren’t like this before.

  You used to scratch my nose.

  Xiao Shao withdrew his hand.

  “I don’t understand one thing,” he said.

  Lin Shu: “What’s the matter?”

  “In the past, I used to treat you like a girl, I just wanted to love you, and I always warned myself to be polite and not to be frivolous.” Xiao Shao said, “Now that you have become a boy. For some reason, I don’t know why my mood is different.”

  Lin Shu was surprised. He thought that he didn’t want to be frivolous with his Shu sister. Did he want to be frivolous with his Junior Brother Shu?

  I’m afraid this person is a bit perverted. He moved his body a bit away from Xiao Shao.

  Then Xiao Shao fished him up and pressed him back to the original place.

  Xiao Shao: “Just like this time, I really want to bully you.”

  There was a smile in his voice.

  Lin Shu couldn’t see his face, but listening to the voice, he could see his cousin.

  Those pair of eyes that always contain peach blossoms, when they are slightly bent, they look like peacocks with open tails, very coquettish.

  But when Cousin laughed like this, Lin Shu felt it was very gentle and beautiful. When he changed to Xiao Shao, he felt a little itchy tooth when he thought that this person laughed at him many times, and now he bluntly said he wanted to bully him.

  He said, “I want to bully you too.”

  Xiao Shao: “You and I have no cultivation base at this time, you can come and fight as much as you like.”

  Lin Shu: “I am not stupid.”

  He was dragging a meridian that was almost broken into powder, and his hands had no power to bind chickens. Although Xiao Shao could not use spiritual power, for the time being, it did not prevent him from having the power to bind Lin Shu.

  Xiao Shao: “Really.”

  Lin Shu grinds his teeth.

  He said, “If you want me to fight you, you can wait for me to restore my meridians.”

  Xiao Shao: “As a senior and in Crossing the Tribulation Realm, you bully me on a Yuan Ying, so shameless.”

  Lin Shu: “You’re just in a Yuan Ying stage, but you can compete against two Tribulation wizards. I think this Yuan Ying is open to discussion.”

  “Huh?” Xiao Shao stretched out his hand and raised Lin Shu’s chin, “Why do you have so many sharp teeth?”

  Lin Shu did not speak, but after thinking about it, he realized that he had just spoken fluently.

  ——Probably because Xiao Shao was too bad.

  Xiao Shao said, “Where’s my family’s little mute?”

  Lin Shu said, “Even if I’m dumb, I’m not your family.”

  Xiao Shao: “Parents’ orders, and matchmaker’s words, even if you can’t be my wife, I’m afraid it would not be easy to separate for the time being.”

  Lin Shu: “Then if you don’t marry a lady, won’t you have Yingying?”

  Xiao Shao: “If Yingying was not born from Junior Sister Shu, what’s the point?”

  Lin Shu thought, Brother Shao was only 20 years old and he lost his wife and daughter. It was really sad. He should tolerate him and comfort him.

  He thought once again, ‘Am I not also the bereaved wife and lost a daughter?’ I am also miserable, but I am not comforted.

  They fell into silence for a moment.

  After a while, Xiao Shao said, “Strange.”

  Lin Shu said, “Yeah.”

  Xiao Shao: “Did you find it strange too?”

  Lin Shu: “I found it.”

  Someone was watching them.

  A look came from behind.

  He turned his head.

  That direction was where they put their clothes before they went into the water.

  Suddenly, a hazy, white shadow swished over the dim, with the sound of breaking wind, it fell straight into the center of the hot spring pool.

  Lin Shu: “.…… What? ”

  Now he felt that look coming from the middle of the pool again.

  Xiao Shao said, “Your sword.”

  Lin Shu: “Folding Bamboo?”

  Xiao Shao said, “I’ll go and see it.”

  It was probably because of the effect of the medicines in the pool. Lin Shu felt that he could see more clearly again. He could see that a figure was going to the middle of the pool.

  Seeing that Xiao Shao was going to the middle of the pool, suddenly there was a tender but crisp and angry voice.

  “Go away!!!!”

  —

  Rose: They’re still upset about Yingying?

  Zaki: I think Lin Shu is jealous of Ying ying. hahaha.
