Chapter 26: Junior Sister, are you really a serious alchemist?
"Wait, wait." Mo Yu gestured excitedly to get Ye Yanqing and Mo Lu to stop. They looked at Mo Yu in confusion, not understanding why he was so excited.
Mo Yu sighed. "Are you worried about Junior Sister getting into trouble? You might as well worry about the spirit beasts in the back mountain and yourselves."
"Do I have to go?" Mo Yu looked at his two senior brothers helplessly.
"We must go!" they said in unison.
"You can go, but eat this first." Mo Yu knew that he could not escape this disaster, so he could only take out a pill bottle, pour out three pills, and stuff one into his mouth first.
"Antidote pill?" Ye Yanqing looked at Mo Yu in confusion.
"If you don't want to lie on the ground unable to move, just take the detoxification pill obediently." Mo Yu sniffed.
He was also tortured badly, otherwise, he wouldn't be so careful.
Although Ye Yanqing and Mo Lu didn't know what he was up to, they still swallowed the detoxification pills.
After walking towards the back mountain for a while, the dark lines on Ye Yanqing and Mo Lu's foreheads became deeper and deeper.
Along the way, they actually saw many spirit beasts lying motionless on the ground.
Ye Yanqing went forward to check and confirmed that they were just unconscious and there were no other problems before looking at Mo Yu.
"Don't look at me like that. This has nothing to do with me. It was all caused by my junior sister." Mo Yu hurriedly explained.
The three of them avoided the sleeping spirit beasts on the ground and found Si Nansheng in the corner of the back mountain.
At this time, Si Nansheng was sitting cross-legged next to the alchemy furnace, with his chin supported by his hands and looking up at the black smoke rising straight into the sky.
"This isn't right. Did I fail again? With such a big commotion, it would be terrible if my brothers found out and came looking for us."
Si Nansheng was muttering to herself, completely unaware that the senior brother she was talking about was already standing behind her.
They looked at the thick smoke coming out of the furnace, their faces filled with indescribable expressions.
"Junior Sister." Ye Yanqing's voice sounded faintly.
Si Nansheng's heart skipped a beat: It's over.
"Haha, senior brother." Si Nansheng turned around nervously and smiled foolishly at Ye Yanqing.
"So, what are you doing, little junior sister?" Ye Yanqing looked at Si Nansheng with a forced smile.
"I, I, I just made some pills." Si Nansheng rubbed his fingers on his rounder little face.
"Refine the elixir, what kind of magic elixir did you refine? It actually made half of the spirit beasts on the mountain fall asleep?" Ye Yanqing gritted his teeth, and Si Nansheng smiled awkwardly.
"Is, is there?" Si Nansheng looked up at the sky and down at the ground, not daring to look at Ye Yanqing.
She really didn't mean it!
She was so focused on refining these pills that she really didn't care about anything else!
"Come with me to see the Master!" Ye Yanqing said as he lifted Si Nansheng's neck.
Si Nansheng pouted, not daring to struggle or refute. Being lifted by Ye Yanqing, he turned around and looked at his alchemy furnace pitifully.
"Fifth Junior Brother, pack up Junior Sister's alchemy furnace and bring it back." Ye Yanqing took a few steps and turned to look at Mo Yu. Mo Yu's body stiffened for a moment, and he obediently turned back to pack up Si Nansheng's alchemy furnace.
Si Nansheng looked at his batch of pills that had not yet been successfully refined with regret.
Si Nansheng: Fifth Brother, you must not throw away the pills I made. I have been guarding them for two hours!
Ye Yanqing didn't even look at Si Nansheng's expression, and held her collar all the way to Li Tianhen's yard.
"Hey, little disciple, what bad things did you do to be caught by your senior brother?" Li Tianhen laughed when he saw the person coming.
Si Nansheng, who was being held by Ye Yanqing by the collar, curled his lips in grievance: "Master, is it really okay for you to just watch the fun like this? Save the child!"
"What's wrong?" As if seeing the accusation in Si Nansheng's eyes, Li Tianhen held back his smile and looked at Ye Yanqing.
"You should ask her what she did. I don't know what kind of medicine my junior sister made in the back mountain. Half of the spirit beasts on the mountain are in a coma." Ye Yanqing placed Si Nansheng in front of his master.
Li Tianhen rubbed Si Nansheng's head and raised his eyebrows to ask silently.
"Actually, I just had some free time and refined some truth pills, animal pills, sleeping pills, paralysis powder, and itching powder..."
Si Nansheng's eyes were evasive, not daring to look at his master and fellow brothers, and his voice became smaller and smaller.
Everyone: ...
So, why are you refining these pills? Not even a single healing pill. Junior Sister, are you really a serious alchemist?
"My little disciple, those spirit beasts in the back mountain were brought back by your third senior brother. Your third senior brother's situation is a bit special. If he saw you hurting his spirit beasts, he would be very sad."
Li Tianhen sighed and looked at Si Nansheng helplessly. Si Nansheng blinked innocently.
Are the spiritual beasts in the back mountain of the Four Gods Sect all raised by the third senior brother whom I have never met?
"Your third senior brother has a simple personality and is not good at getting along with others, so he raised those spirit beasts."
Li Tianhen noticed the confusion in his little disciple's eyes and started to explain.
"Ah?" Si Nansheng opened his mouth wide, his face full of horror.
This is terrible!
Could it be that those spiritual beasts that she secretly ate in the back mountain were also raised by Third Senior Brother?
This is terrible. If Third Senior Brother finds out, won’t he hunt him down?
"I'll help you catch some more spirit beasts and put them in the back mountain so that Third Senior Brother won't find out." Mo Lu saw Si Nansheng's fear and he raised his hand and patted his junior sister's shoulder.
"Fourth Senior Brother, I knew you were the best to me." Si Nansheng threw herself into Mo Lu's arms, hugged his waist, and was so moved that she almost cried.
Li Tianhen raised his eyebrows: Master is not nice to you?
Ye Yanqing sighed: Am I too strict with my junior sister?
Mo Yu rushed over in a panic: Where am I? What am I doing? What did I miss?
"My little disciple, we will be going to the secret realm in a few days. Have a good rest and don't harm the spirit beasts in the back mountain."
Li Tianhen rubbed Si Nansheng's head, and Si Nansheng nodded obediently.
"Mo Lu, you have to work hard these days and keep a close eye on her." Ye Yanqing looked at Mo Lu worriedly.
Si Nansheng seems well-behaved, but he has caused a lot of trouble unintentionally.
It would be more reassuring to let Mo Lu keep an eye on her before leaving.
"Yes, Senior Brother." Mo Lu responded obediently.
Si Nansheng curled his lips: I'm a good kid, why do I need someone to watch over me?
But Si Nansheng, who had just gotten into trouble, didn't dare to refute!
"Junior sister, your alchemy furnace." Mo Yu handed the alchemy furnace to Si Nansheng in a daze. As soon as Si Nansheng took it, Mo Yu fell to the ground.
Everyone: ...
Is this sleeping?
"Fifth Senior Brother, why don't you take care of your body? You will catch a cold if you sleep outside." Si Nansheng looked at Mo Yu helplessly.
Mo Yu: Who am I doing this for? Isn't it all because of that furnace of sleeping pills you made? I got too close, forgot to protect myself, and got hit. Being able to hold on and walk back is already... my limit...
Mo Lu sighed, helped Mo Yu up with disgust, and sent him back to the room.
In the next few days, Mo Lu took good care of Si Nansheng.
Si Nansheng was well behaved and didn't cause any trouble. He was busy practicing, drawing talismans, and memorizing medicinal recipes every day.
"Junior sister, are you ready? Master asked us to call you. We are about to set off." Mo Yu and Mo Lu came to find Si Nansheng.
"Aren't there still a few days?" Si Nansheng lay weakly on the table.
