Chapter 122: Coming to the Door



The old man called the Great Elder stroked the long beard on his chin, and a shrewd light appeared in his eyes.

"I don't know the answers to your questions. The only person who can answer them is the girl who made this pill. Let's ask her."

Now Lin Qingqing is having breakfast with her family.

What Lin Qingqing likes most now is to sit together with her family and eat breakfast. Even if they have a bowl of plain white porridge in front of them, she thinks it is the most delicious breakfast in the world.

"Sister-in-law, how many pills do you have on you now?" Halfway through the meal, Xiao Qing put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand and asked her with a smile on his face.

Lin Qingqing looked at his smile, which was like a weasel wishing a happy new year to a chicken, and pulled the corner of her mouth. "There are still many, but why are you asking this? What bad ideas are you planning?"

When he heard the word "quite a lot", the smile on his lips became even brighter.

"Sister-in-law, how could I possibly have bad intentions towards you? Of course I have good intentions towards you, I..."

Before he could finish his words, he was hit on the head by his eldest brother.

"Ah, brother, it hurts, why did you hit my head?"

Xiao Wen gently picked up a piece of green vegetables with his chopsticks and placed it in his wife's arms. Then he glared at his younger brother with a serious face, "Watch the tone you use when talking to your sister-in-law. You're acting like a scoundrel. Are you asking for a beating?"

When Xiao Qing saw his eldest brother's fierce look, he shrank his neck in fear and whispered in fear, "Why is my eldest brother getting more and more jealous?"

Lin Qingqing ate breakfast while looking at the two brothers, with a happy smile on her face.

At this time, two young men in white clothes walked into the yard.

"Everyone, I'm sorry to disturb you while you're having breakfast. May I ask which one of you is Comrade Lin Qingqing?" As soon as one of them came in, he asked with an apologetic look on his face.

Lin Qingqing, who was eating breakfast, heard them calling her name. She immediately put down her bowl and chopsticks and stood up. "I'm Lin Qingqing. What do you want to talk to me about?"

The young man who had just spoken immediately looked in her direction, his tone full of respect as he said, "Hello, Comrade Lin. I am the guard of Yaoxiang Manor. We are here to invite Comrade Lin over on the orders of our great elder."

Just as he finished speaking, Old Man Xiao, who was sitting at the dinner table, stood up in surprise and shouted, "Grand Elder!"

Lin Qingqing heard the old man's shocked voice, turned her head to look at him, and asked, "Grandpa, do you know the Great Elder? Who is he?"

Old Master Xiao's lips trembled, and his tone was even more excited. "The Great Elder, the Great Elder is one of the owners of Yaoxiang Manor. I heard that this Great Elder is the most powerful doctor in our Chinese medicine, but because of his age, he will not come out easily."

Lin Qingqing nodded slightly after listening to this. She found that since she came here, she slowly discovered that there were so many things in the medical field that she didn't know.

But it's no wonder. She used to be so focused on studying and treating patients that she wasn't interested in these things at all.

After hearing Mr. Xiao's explanation, the young man showed an expression of pride on his face.

"Comrade Lin, I wonder if you can come with us now?" he asked again.

"Okay." She pursed her lips and answered seriously.

At this moment, her hand was suddenly grabbed by the man next to her.

The next second, she heard his concerned voice, "I want to go with my wife, too."

Lin Qingqing looked up at him, and her soft eyes met his. The couple smiled at each other.

"Yes, if my man can't go, then I won't go either," she added.

The man in white pursed his lips, as if thinking for a moment before answering, "Okay, both of you follow us."

After saying goodbye to their family, the couple left hand in hand.

Led by two men in white, the couple came to the deepest bamboo building in the manor.

As soon as they approached this place, Lin Qingqing immediately discovered that the medicinal fragrance here was stronger than that in the buildings where they lived before.

"You two wait here for a moment. I'll go in and inform the elders." When they reached the door, the four men stopped, and one of the men in white politely negotiated with them.

The young couple had no objections at all and understood, and nodded to each other.

As the others walked in, Xiao Wen frowned as he looked at the bamboo forest they had just passed by.

"Qingqing, this place is not simple. Look at the bamboo forest we just walked through. If we walked alone, we would definitely be trapped there because people have set up the Eight Trigrams Qiankun Diagram in it."

When Lin Qingqing heard his words, she immediately followed his gaze and looked at the bamboo forest. Unfortunately, her ability was limited and she couldn't see what was special about this bamboo forest.

"How did you tell that? To me it looks just like an ordinary bamboo forest." She asked him curiously.

Xiao Wen lowered his head and smiled. "Actually, I have done some research on this, but I've only learned the basics. Compared to the masters who set up this formation, what I've learned can only be considered insignificant."

At this moment, the tightly closed door opened and the man in white who had just entered walked out.

"You two, the Great Elder invites you in." The young man replied respectfully.

The young couple stopped their discussion and looked at the open door with wide eyes. Inside was a hall that stretched as far as the eye could see.

The couple held each other's hands tightly, looked at each other, took a deep breath at the same time, and strode inside hand in hand.

After walking inside, the two realized that the hall was not endless, but it was completely dark, which gave them this illusion.

Just as they stepped in, a dazzling light suddenly appeared inside, illuminating the people inside.

As soon as the light came on, Xiao Wen immediately covered his wife's eyes with one hand.

"Sorry, both of you, we old men prefer darkness." At this moment, four white-haired old men were sitting not far from the light.

Lin Qingqing gently pushed Xiao Wen's hand away, and saw at a glance that the four old men were sitting there like old monks, as if they were meditating.

"Four old men, I want to ask, are you looking for me?" Lin Qingqing walked up to them and asked.

The four old men stared at the little girl in front of them who was facing them fearlessly, and a smile of interest appeared on their faces at the same time.

Because of their identities, everyone who saw them had fear in their eyes, and some even had greed in their eyes because they wanted to get something from them.

But in the eyes of this little girl, they only saw purity and no desires.
