Chapter 19: Cleansing Bones
Xia Xing'er watched Chunliu staring at the bright red candied haws, with a look on her face that almost said, "I want to eat, I want to eat."
Xia Xing'er teased her amusedly, "Do you want to eat?"
Chunliu's eyes were full of stars and she nodded her head like a rattle.
"I won't buy it for you."
Chunliu instantly became like a deflated ball, and her whole body was wilted.
Xia Xing'er gave up the idea of teasing her and walked directly to the merchant selling candied haws, took two strings, paid some money, and handed them directly to Chunliu.
The person who had been looking down, saw what was in front of him, and a smile instantly appeared on his face, and he took it happily.
Chunliu took the candied haws and took a bite carefully as if she had found a treasure. The sweet and sour taste made her eyes squint into crescents.
"Okay, let's get down to business. Do you know which shops are the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Imperial Tutor's Mansion, and the Minister of War's Mansion..."
Chun Liu recalled and pointed directly at a small three-story building in front of him and said, "Miss, this Linglong Pavilion is the property of the Prime Minister's wife. There are all kinds of jewelry and head ornaments in it. The noble ladies in the capital like to go there."
Then he went to the small building opposite and said, "Jinxiu Pavilion belongs to the Minister of Revenue. It mainly deals in cloth, ready-made clothes, and embroidery..."
And that...
Two hours later, she had obtained the information she wanted and just had to wait until after dark...
After returning home, she sent Chunliu away and entered the space.
He went directly to the second floor, where the pills were stored, and took out the required pills.
Each person will receive one Marrow Cleansing Pill. There are ten-, twenty-, and thirty-year-old Internal Strength Pills. Give each person two of each. Each person will also receive one of these Power Pills...
When she passed by the refining room, she went in again and saw all kinds of storage rings, bracelets, necklaces, jade pendants...
After much deliberation, I decided to give everyone a storage ring so that it would be convenient for everyone along the way.
She had already taken the Marrow Cleansing Pill, but not the Inner Strength Pill. Otherwise...
She still remembers vividly the feeling after taking the marrow cleansing pill.
Cleansing the marrow and cutting the bones was really painful. She knew that she had been in pain for a long time. She knew that the pain in her body was slowly disappearing, but she had to bear it all by herself. She had been practicing martial arts since she was a child and could not bear that kind of pain. She was really worried about her fragile mother and two sisters-in-law.
But after the pain comes the benefits. Thinking back to when I struggled to get up, my face and body were covered with a thick layer of dirt, and I was emitting a foul odor that was so strong that it almost made me faint.
It took seven or eight washes to rinse it clean.
When I see my skin becoming whiter, tenderer and more delicate in the water, I feel that everything is worth it.
She just looks thin now, but her physical functions are actually very good.
She took a thirty-year-old internal energy pill and immediately felt that her meridians were about to burst. She endured the pain and quickly practiced the internal energy method to sort out the internal energy running around in her meridians. It took her a whole hour to straighten out the internal energy and finally turn it into her own use.
Fortunately, I tried it first. If it were my mother and the others, they would definitely go crazy. I would let them use the ten-year version first, and then add them one by one.
She now feels that her body is full of strength. Adding to her original strength, she now has forty years of internal strength.
I found a few more books on inner skills, and the martial arts secrets were out of the space.
After dinner, everyone gathered in Xia Chengsheng and Liu Youran's yard.
They were the only family members in the room. All the maids and servants were asked to go to bed and rest, and even the three little ones were asked to go to bed early.
Seeing Xia Xing'er take out a lot of things out of thin air, everyone was stunned.
"Little sister, where did you hide this thing?"
Xia Qingyu walked around Xia Xing'er and looked at her sleeves again.
I still haven't figured out where these things are hidden.
Then Xia Xing'er waved her delicate hand again, and everything on the table disappeared again.
Xia Qingyu pointed at her and said, "Little...little...sister, you made them all disappear. How did you do it? Teach me quickly."
Xia Xing'er knew her third brother's temper, so she put the things back on the table.
Pointing at the rings, he said, "This is the legendary ring space. Each person has one. Drop a drop of your blood on it, and the ring will automatically recognize its owner. You can store things inside. The area is not large, only ten square meters. Time inside is frozen, so no living things can be placed inside."
Several people now don’t know how to describe their feelings at the moment. They feel surprise, joy, and disbelief.
Xia Xing'er also claimed a ring as her own, but her ring had a space of 200 square meters, so why were the rings she gave to her family only 10 square meters?
Because this thing shouldn't exist in this world, I gave each of them one.
I also found an excuse to take things out of thin air in the future.
There are no three children.
"Little... little sister, this really is the legendary space ring. Everyone has one. You didn't lie to us, did you?"
Xia Xing'er smiled mysteriously and whispered, "Third brother, when have I ever lied to you?"
She took out a dagger and cut a hole in her third brother's finger, letting the blood drip directly onto a ring. She said, "Now, feel it, or just look at something and silently say in your mind, 'Collect.'"
Xia Qingyu did as he was told and found that he could use his consciousness to enter the ring space. Just as his younger sister said, the space was only ten square meters in size.
When the others saw his silly look, they knew it was true. They each picked up a ring and did as he said.
Half a minute later, they suppressed their joy and looked at Xia Xing'er who was sitting beside them drinking tea.
Seeing that everyone had digested the shock of the space ring, Xia Xing'er curled up a sly smile.
He pulled out several exquisite porcelain bottles from his sleeves and whispered, "And these are the elixirs I prepared for you. The Marrow Cleansing Pill, after taking it, can cleanse the bones and marrow and eliminate impurities in the body; the Internal Strength Pill, which comes in ten, twenty, and thirty year durations, can directly increase your internal strength after taking it; and the Power Pill, which will give you infinite strength after taking it."
"I'm making this clear beforehand: you'll be in excruciating pain after taking the Marrow Cleansing Pill. But as long as you persevere and endure it, you'll be reborn, so you all need to be mentally prepared.
Dad, eldest brother, second brother, and third brother are all men, I believe they will be fine."
After saying this, he stared at Liu Youran, Zhuge Pei, and Bai Wan'er, and said with some concern, "Mother and my two sisters-in-law have always been weak. I don't know if they can make it."
Liu Youran was most afraid of pain. She weakly asked, "Which hurts more, compared to giving birth?"
This question really stumped Xia Xing'er, as she had never given birth to a child in her two lifetimes combined.
I've only heard that giving birth is very painful, like having all ten ribs broken at the same time.
