He felt a little embarrassed, so he composed himself.
Turning around, she thought, "Why think so much?" So she said to A-Jiang, half-jokingly, "They've sold me to you. I can't go back to the Xiao family mansion. Whether you go to the East Sea or the South Sea, west or north, I'll follow you. You don't need to think I'm a burden. If you stop taking my medicine, I'll die a horrible death."
Ah Jiang was a straightforward person. After hearing his heartfelt words, she felt some empathy. In addition, since he resembled her master, she couldn't bring herself to drive him away.
Heavens above, earth below, is this my first ordeal since descending the mountain?
A-Jiang cried out in his heart, for his fate was indeed sealed!
Xiao Songjing watched the change in her expression, his smile deepening, but he quickly suppressed it.
She said with a sigh, "I've come to terms with it. I won't hold it against them. After all, they raised me, so I should just give them something in return."
What kind of reward do you want?
"Give me some spirit stones, pills, and unnecessary magical artifacts."
A-Jiang, puzzled, pulled out his Qiankun bag, dumped a pile of things onto the table, picked through them, and put them into another Qiankun bag. He said, "This is enough. Do you have a way to deliver them to the Xiao family?"
A-Jiang nodded, beckoned a white crane, and said, "Deliver it to the Xiao family in Qingniu Town."
The white crane cried out, picked up the object, and flew out of the Mirror Residence.
Xiao Songjing found it interesting and asked, "What kind of magic is this?"
"It's just a simple summoning spell. I can teach you if you want to learn."
Xiao Songjing was still smiling, but he did not respond.
Ah Jiang then remembered that although he had good physique, he had been weak since childhood and his body could not support his cultivation. The more he cultivated, the more serious his illness became.
After thinking for a while, she said, "My master gave me a lot of cultivation techniques. I'll look for them tomorrow, and maybe I can find one that suits you."
Seeing Ah Jiang's serious expression, Xiao Songjing still laughed.
She takes everything she does very seriously and is extremely sincere to people. She is willing to give even the most precious things if it can help others.
“Okay,” he said with a smile. “Anyway, I’m yours now, so you can do whatever you want with me.”
This sounded strange. Ah Jiang wasn't used to having close relationships with others, and she had already chatted a lot today, so after saying a few words, she went back to her room to rest.
A-Jiang and Xiao Songjing walked eastward together. After that day, Xiao Songjing returned to the way he was when they first met, maintaining a proper distance in his words and actions. A-Jiang finally felt at ease.
A-Jiang had made an impulsive decision to bring him along, and although she had been taking him with her, she regretted it. His family situation also prevented her from making up her mind to send him back.
If it were me, I would definitely cherish this opportunity and never want to go back.
Thinking this way, A-Jiang resigned himself to his fate.
A-Jiang then used the side spirit disc to examine Xiao Songjing carefully. He had good aptitude, but his health was poor.
This was due to congenital toxins in the womb, which would normally prevent him from living to such an old age. However, perhaps his family had some special health preservation methods that allowed him to live to adulthood.
His current cultivation level is Qi Refining Stage 2, and his family's cultivation method is quite standard. A-Jiang then told him to go to the attic of Mirror Residence to look up ancient books during his rest time. There are many ancient books and cultivation methods there, and perhaps one of them can help him.
Along their journey, they sometimes rode horses, sometimes flew boats, and sometimes walked. When they rested, they ate together, and then each went about their own business. Xiao Songjing went to the pavilion to look through the classics, while A Jiang went to the quiet room to cultivate.
They weren't chasing speed; they just leisurely continued eastward.
Ah Jiang saw many beautiful sights and his mind became much more open. Although the spiritual energy in the human world was scarce, he gained some insights, so his cultivation level also increased.
