Chapter 6
After Mo Fan finished speaking, Bai Yu was choked.
The two of them talked with their arms around each other's shoulders, while Huang Qiao said to You Qing who was walking over, "Junior brother, since you have joined the Suiyi Sect today, you will be a member of the Suiyi Sect from now on."
"I am your eldest senior brother, Huang Qiao. This is your second senior brother, Bai Yu. This is your third senior brother, Mo Fan."
"You also have a fourth senior sister, Lin Xia. She went out and hasn't come back yet."
"We don't have many people in the sect. Our master has passed away. There are only five of us in the sect now, including you."
As soon as Huang Qiao finished mentioning five people, her clothes were tugged by a chubby little hand.
He looked down and saw the little cub on the bench. He blinked at him and said softly, "Six."
Huang Qiao: “Ah?”
The little cub loosened the hand that was pulling his clothes, pointed at himself, and reminded: "And Qiao Qiao."
Huang Qiao: “…”
Huang Qiao corrected him, "That's right, we can send them up and down as we please. There are six of us now."
In other sects, there are more than six people doing odd jobs. It is very rare that they only have this few people in the entire sect.
Huang Qiao cleared her throat to save face for her own sect.
"Don't underestimate our sect because we have a small number of people. We have a library, a pharmacy, a medicine garden, a weapon storehouse... We have all of these."
Their sect sent out a recruitment advertisement, and some people came to become its disciples.
However, the only one who could really become their junior disciple was You Qing, a man with useless spiritual roots.
You Qing listened to Huang Qiao's words, and there was not a single trace of disdain or disappointment towards the sect on his handsome face.
He said calmly: “Brother, I am very grateful that you are willing to take care of George Qiao’s illness.”
He had good hearing and heard the conversation between Ming Qiao and them just now.
It was precisely because of what he heard that he was willing to join the sect no matter how small it was.
"Don't bother with polite words. We will assign someone to protect you. From now on, whether it's you or Qiao Qiao, we will assign someone to take care of you."
"Let's go and burn some incense for our master. Before he left, he wanted to recruit another junior disciple for us, but unfortunately there is no suitable one."
Huang Qiao bent down, picked up the child on the bench, and led You Qing to the main hall in the inner courtyard. In the main hall, there were tablets of the leaders of the random faction. There were not many tablets, only three in total.
You Qing knew etiquette. He kowtowed to the tablet respectfully, burned incense, and called the master.
After You Qing finished the process of becoming a disciple, Ming Qiao leaned his little head against Huang Qiao's chin and asked, "Qiao Qiao, are you going to kowtow too?"
"You don't have to knock."
Huang Qiao didn't let him kowtow: "It's enough for your brother to kowtow."
The people sent randomly are simple and life is simple too.
You Qing was assigned a room and a bucket of prepared bath water.
"Wash yourself clean and come out to eat."
"Well, thank you, big brother."
Watching You Qing taking a shower in the room, Ming Qiao felt that he was also dirty.
He hid in the car and never had a chance to take a shower.
"Jojo wants to take a bath."
Ming Qiao pointed at You Qing's room door and made a request.
Huang Qiao hesitated for a moment, then looked at Bai Yu and Mo Fan and asked, "Will he catch a cold if we give him a bath?"
"No, leave it to me."
Bai Yu took the cub that was hanging on Huang Qiao.
He asked Mo Fan to look through the medicine garden and the preserved spiritual medicines. After searching for a while, Mo Fan actually found two medicines that Ming Qiao could use.
"This is a bath."
Mingqiao knows all the medicines he needs to use.
He threw the two medicines into the water and then undressed himself.
The doors and windows are closed and the bath water is hot.
This was not enough. Bai Yu looked at the cub, whose little body shivered instinctively after taking off his clothes. He mobilized his spiritual power with both hands, and almost in an instant, the whole room became warm like spring.
The cub was trying to climb into the bathtub, feeling the warmth coming from all directions, his eyes widened in shock.
“Not cold and spicy.”
"Yes, you can take a shower only when you are no longer cold. Mo Fan, come and give me a hand."
Bai Yu said this and put the fair and tender little cub into the bucket.
Mo Fan squatted beside the bucket and rubbed the little guy's fat arms, imitating Bai Yu's behavior.
Bai Yu and Mo Fan gave the baby a bath, and Huang Qiao went to the kitchen to cook for the baby.
In the evening, several people, big and small, sat around the dining table. Mingqiao wore a cloth bag on his chest to prevent the food from spilling on his clothes.
"Good times."
Ming Qiao, holding the rice spoon by himself, gave his evaluation of the food on the table.
There were grains of rice stuck to his chubby little face, and he ate his meal with relish.
Huang Qiao’s cooking skills are not particularly good, and whether the food she cooks is delicious depends purely on luck.
Fortunately, he was lucky this time and the meal he prepared received good reviews.
"Brother, second meat."
The cub, with his cheeks stuffed with flesh, gave the chicken leg in his little hand to You Qing, who was not very good at picking up food.
"Thanks."
You Qing didn't mind that the chicken leg had been bitten, and it was probably stained with Ming Qiao's saliva. He took the chicken leg and ate it in a few bites.
The three fellow disciples nearby could see that the new junior fellow was still a little uncomfortable with the situation.
They didn't say much. Bai Yu slowly picked the bones from the fish and calmly arranged tomorrow's activities.
"Big Brother, take Little Junior around tomorrow and see what he wants to learn."
"Xiao Fan, make a list of the medicines Qiao Qiao needs to take, and we can get them one by one."
"It's too late today, everyone should go to bed early after dinner."
Although Bai Yu is the second oldest among his fellow disciples, it is obvious that the eldest brother will also listen to his arrangements.
It was dark outside.
Mingqiao returned to the room and touched his full stomach, feeling extremely happy.
"Brother, this place is so nice."
Ming Qiao leaned into You Qing's arms and chatted with You Qing: "Qiao Qiao likes it here."
"This place... is very nice."
You Qing climbed onto the made bed, with the baby in his arms, who was dressed in pajamas.
The two of them slept in one bed.
"Brother, Senior Brother just said that he would find more medicine for Qiao Qiao."
The cub, who was clinging to You Qing, was not sleepy for the time being. He held You Qing's calloused hands with his chubby little hands, pinching them and talking to You Qing.
Most children are afraid of taking medicine, but Mingqiao takes the initiative to take it.
You Qing lowered his eyes and looked at the kid who was giggling while playing with his fingers. He suddenly wanted to know -
This kid must have gone through so much suffering to be so well behaved and calm in finding medicine for himself.
The finger-playing game was simple and boring, but Ming Qiao enjoyed playing it for a long time.
At the end of the game, You Qing saw that it was too late, so he coaxed him to sleep.
The quilt on the bed was thick, and the two children huddled together, having their first good sleep in many days.
After they fell asleep, Huang Qiao, Bai Yu, and Mo Fan all quietly came to the front of their room.
Just by standing in front of the room, they can clearly sense all the movements in the room.
The subtle breathing and the occasional heart-wrenching cough were all caught by their ears.
"Xiao Fan, would you like to take a trip?"
"Let's go."
The two figures disappeared at the same time. After a while, Huang Qiao muttered to herself, "I wonder how much inventory the Nine Stars Sect has..."
If there is not much, they may have to "borrow" from other places.
This night.
Although Ming Qiao had a cough, he slept well. The next day, the sun was shining on his buttocks, but he was still reluctant to get up.
You Qing let him sleep and dressed him quickly.
"You Qing, Qiao Qiao, come out for dinner."
Not long after changing clothes, there was a knock on the door and Huang Qiao's voice came from outside the door.
You Qing carried Ming Qiao, who was still a little sleepy, out and sat down at the dining table.
There was a bowl of black unknown liquid on the dining table.
Ming Qiao sat on You Qing's lap. He sniffed a familiar scent.
"Medicine."
Ming Qiao, who was a little sleepy, instantly became much more awake when he smelled the scent.
He rubbed his eyes, looked at the porcelain bowl that smelled bitter, and recognized it: "It's the motherwort."
In addition to the motherwort, there is also the purple wormwood root.
The medicine was so bitter that Huang Qiao frowned when she made it.
He looked at the medicine, then at the cub sitting on You Qing.
"Qiao Qiao, do you want to drink?"
"want!"
Ming Qiao stretched out her little hand and felt the temperature of the bowl.
"Brother, don't hug Qiao Qiao anymore."
He climbed down from You Qing's legs, then picked up the medicine bowl, which was bigger than his face, and drank it down with gulps.
After drinking a few sips, Mingqiao's little face wrinkled with bitterness.
He frowned and felt like vomiting.
In the past, he would spit it out and then continue drinking.
But now, he doesn't have a lot of medicine to waste.
He closed his eyes and pursed his lips to prevent himself from vomiting. When the urge to vomit passed, he continued to drink the medicine in big gulps.
In this way, the whole bowl of medicine went into his stomach.
Almost at the moment of putting down the medicine bowl, Huang Qiao stuffed the candy that she had already peeled into Ming Qiao's mouth steadily, accurately and quickly.
"Eat a piece of candy to calm it down."
"Um!"
Ming Qiao ate the candy, tilted his little face, which was still stained with medicine, and smiled at Huang Qiao: "Thank you, Senior Brother!"
"Don't thank me."
Huang Qiao touched his little head and her eyes felt a little sore.
The medicine is so bitter that adults can't even drink it by pinching their noses.
How can this little guy drink so obediently?
"Brother will find all the medicine for you as soon as possible. One day, your illness will be cured..."
The bitterness in Mingqiao's mouth could not be suppressed by a piece of candy.
But even though his mouth was bitter, Ming Qiao felt sweet in his heart when he saw his senior brother making medicine for him and feeding him sugar.
You Qing pulled the child who was eating candy back to him and raised his hand to wipe the child's mouth.
At the door.
Bai Yu and Mo Fan, who had slightly dark circles under their eyes, saw clearly the scene of the child taking the medicine.
I don't know what they are thinking.
They didn't come over until Ming Qiao noticed them and waved his chubby little hands to call them.
"Second Brother, Third Brother, good morning."
Ming Qiao greeted them happily and shared the good news with them: "Qiao Qiao just drank spicy medicine!"
"Qiao Qiao won't die after drinking the medicine."
Ming Qiao spoke so happily that all the adults in the room could hardly hold their breath.
Bai Yu clenched his fists and lowered his voice: "Xiao Fan, tonight——"
"Go again!"
"become."
In order to let the cub live one more day, they rushed to reserve the Nine Star Gate!
For many days.
Ming Qiao took medicine every day, and his complexion was visibly much better than when he first came to the sect.
"Qiao Qiao, what are you planting?"
"Qiao Qiao grows radishes, gives one to his senior brother, and one to his brother."
The morning sun was warm. Ming Qiao was wearing the new clothes that Mo Fan had made for him. He was standing in the vegetable field, waving a small hoe and laughing.
You Qing stayed in the back mountain. He had useless spiritual roots and it was difficult for him to practice.
But he got a book from the library and is now studying it in seclusion in the back mountain.
Huang Qiao told Ming Qiao that they should not disturb her brother for a while.
Even without his brother to accompany him, Ming Qiao was not lonely as he still had three senior brothers around.
He wielded a small hoe, and when he got tired he sat on the ground in the vegetable garden and wiped the sweat off his face.
"Big Brother. Second Brother and Third Brother, when will you come back?"
"It will be soon. When they come back, bring some cakes for us, Qiao Qiao."
"Yeah! Senior brother too!"
An adult and a child were staying in the vegetable garden, creating a warm and harmonious atmosphere.
However, while they were enjoying the warmth here, outside the sect, the situation was tense.
Bai Yu and Mo Fan went out to borrow medicine too frequently, and now their creditors have come to collect the money.
A bunch of creditors were blocking the door of Suiyipai, all of them with angry faces.
"Jojo! Jojo! Jojo where are you?!"
Bai Yu hurried back and called Ming Qiao from a distance.
Huang Qiao heard the noise and rushed over holding Ming Qiao. He frowned and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry? Is there a dog chasing you?"
"It's not a dog, but it's almost like a dog!"
Bai Yu took Ming Qiao into his arms and told Huang Qiao, "Pack up Qiao Qiao's things. I have to take Qiao Qiao out for a while."
Huang Qiao: “?”
Huang Qiao: "What happened?"
Bai Yu looked constipated: "Didn't Xiao Fan and I borrow some medicine recently? He wants to come to our house as a guest."
Because Ming Qiao was still there, Bai Yu spoke vaguely: "I'm too lazy to entertain them. I want to take Ming Qiao out for a walk."
"It just so happens that the Xisha Forest is about to open. I heard that there are Xuanyang trees in the forest. I'll go to Qiaoqiao to cut a few."
Huang Qiao: “…”
Huang Qiao understood that the drug scam had gone wrong and the man was about to run away.
He turned back and silently packed the things Mingqiao needed to take.
After everything was packed, Huang Qiao spoke up, "Will it be convenient for you to take Qiao Qiao with you when you go to Xisha Forest?"
"convenient."
Bai Yu thinks quickly. Since he wants to run away, he must have thought of a way out.
"You can't borrow medicine in this area. If you want to borrow medicine again, you must go out."
"Big Brother, you and Xiao Fan hold the fort here for a while. Qiao Qiao and I will be back soon."
"Okay, come back early."
Bai Yu was talking to Huang Qiao, and Ming Qiao, who was being held in her arms, looked a little dazed.
He hasn't finished planting his radishes yet, so why is he going out?
Just when Ming Qiao was about to talk about his carrot, his little ears heard Bai Yu say, "By the way, Lv Heng will also go to Xisha Forest this time."
"What is she doing there? Be careful not to run into her."
"I know. I'll go around her. Besides her, there are also people from Lintian Sect going there."
With Lintian Sect around, no accidents would happen. This was also the reason why Baiyu felt relieved to bring the cub out.
"No more talking, Big Brother, we are leaving now. Qiao Qiao, say goodbye to Big Brother!"
"Goodbye, Senior Brother."
Ming Qiao hugged Bai Yu's neck and said goodbye to Huang Qiao obediently.
He said goodbye, and before he was taken away, he took the time to send a message to You Qing.
"Brother, tell my brother that Qiao Qiao is going to look for his mother."
There is Lvheng and Lintian Sect in Xisha Forest.
Mingqiao wants to see which one is the mother!
The author has something to say:
Come on, come on, spicy!
