Upon opening the bottle, a pleasant aroma of medicinal herbs wafted out.
"This is... a Tendon-Restoring Pill?!" Lin Jingge's previously casual attitude instantly turned serious. After carefully smelling the pill, she murmured, "Something's not right..."
The Fujin Pill was only a Yellow-rank entry-level pill, with a mixed aroma, while the pill in my hand had a very pure aroma, so refined that it seemed to have no impurities whatsoever.
Seeing Lin Jingge's shock at an ordinary pill, Lin Shu's face showed a hint of disdain.
It's just an ordinary pill, why are you so shocked?
"Shu Shu, where did you get these pills?" Lin Jingge put the stopper back on the bottle and squatted down in front of Lin Shu.
She was somewhat worried, fearing that Lin Shu had paid a bad price to obtain this elixir from someone else.
Lin Shu felt that Lin Jingge was being a bit fussy. Shouldn't her first reaction be to take the pills?
She frowned and snatched the pill from Lin Jin's hand.
Lin Jingge was completely unsuspecting, and Lin Shu easily snatched the porcelain bottle from her hand.
Just as Lin Jingge was about to ask what the other party wanted to do, she saw Lin Shu pull out the stopper, pour out the pills, and put them into her mouth while Lin Jingge was speaking.
"You want... um..." Lin Jingge opened her mouth slightly, her almond eyes widened, and she subconsciously swallowed the pill in her mouth.
The elixir dissolved in Lin Jingge's body, and she immediately fainted on the spot.
Seeing Lin Jingge fall to the ground, Lin Shu suddenly slapped her forehead. How could she have forgotten about this!
Meridian repair only begins when the body is dormant. The pills she took out were extremely potent, instantly knocking Lin Jingge unconscious.
Lin Shu glanced at her short legs, sighed resignedly, and dragged Lin Jingge into the room by pulling on her clothes.
After dragging it out for a long time, they still couldn't budge the person. The silver-eyed man stared at his own hand with a look of utter disbelief, staring at it for a long while.
"What happened?" After calming down, Grandma Lin led Liu Yan, who had been following behind her, back home. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Lin Shu dragging her granddaughter who had fallen to the ground.
Upon seeing this scene, Granny Lin felt as if her blood had frozen. A great panic arose in her heart, and she immediately let go of Liu Yan's hand and rushed forward.
Lin Shu even used all his strength, like gnawing on spirit stones, to get Lin Jingge into the room, but to no avail!
Before she could come up with a better solution, Granny Lin, who rushed up from behind, slapped her to the ground.
Grandma Lin picked up Lin Jinge, pushed open the door, and put Lin Jinge on the bed. Only after feeling Lin Jinge's pulse did she calm down.
Inside and outside the room, Lin Shu, with her short legs, wobbled to her feet, dusted herself off, and then her face fell completely when she saw her blackened palms.
However, to outsiders, her expression was quite adorable. Liu Yan was worried that she might fall and get hurt, so she took the initiative to help her up, but Lin Shu silently avoided her.
As Lin Shu entered the room, Grandma Lin's sharp eyes immediately turned to him.
"What happened after I left?" Granny Lin suddenly stood up, flashed in front of Lin Shu, and looked down at the child who was not even as tall as her thigh and whose origins were unknown.
It's true that the child's origins are unclear. She only noticed that her granddaughter liked the child, so she didn't interfere much. Little did she know that the child had many secrets.
Lin Shu disliked being questioned like this; her silver eyelashes drooped, concealing the fierceness in her eyes.
Seeing that she remained silent, Grandma Lin gave up the idea of continuing to ask. In any case, no matter what happened, her granddaughter would recover soon, and there was no need to cause any unpleasantness.
To everyone's surprise, this wait lasted for three days.
When Lin Jingge woke up, her mind was still a little fuzzy. She reached out and grabbed Lin Shu from the chest.
This little brat is using her as a human cushion again!
Suppressing the urge to punch the other person, Lin Jingge carried Lin Shu to the far end of the bed and got up, rubbing her head.
The sky outside was already bright, and the autumn sun was quite dazzling.
There was no sign of Granny Lin outside the house; she would usually be in the fields by this time.
"Ahhh—Gege, your meridians have been repaired! And they've even widened quite a bit!!!" Xiao Shi screamed in Lin Jingge's mind, overwhelmed with joy, and couldn't help but turn into a cat and roll around on the ground.
However, because it was a string of data, the dust on the ground didn't stick to it. It suppressed its joy and jumped into Lin Jingge's arms to snuggle up: "After your meridians are restored, Gege, you can cultivate and earn spirit stones. Our space can also be freed up!"
It can eat more spirit stones now! Xiao Shi thought happily.
Lin Jingge gently stroked the cat in her arms, feeling better than ever before.
Finally, things are starting to look better.
Lin Shu had somehow walked up to Lin Jingge's legs. She glanced at Lin Jingge's arms with a puzzled look, then looked away and tugged at Lin Jingge's trouser leg: "I'm hungry."
The child's sweet, childlike voice, tinged with a hint of coquetry, melted Lin Jingge's heart, making her want to offer him all the best things in return.
Thinking this way, she did just that, laying out her last three spirit stones in front of Lin Shu.
"I want to eat too!!!" Xiao Shi made a fuss in Lin Jingge's mind. It had been a long time since it had smelled the fragrance of energy. To it, spirit stones were like delicacies from land and sea.
Lin Shu, who originally intended to take only one spirit stone, paused and quickly hugged all three spirit stones on the table to his chest. He even glared at Lin Jingge's chest, like a cute little beast guarding its food.
That one glance made Xiao Shi bristle, and its hesitant voice echoed in Lin Jingge's mind: "I... I feel like that little baby can see me?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Jingge also looked over at Lin Shu. At this moment, Lin Shu was obediently chewing on a spirit stone, looking back at Lin Jingge with an innocent expression.
"They shouldn't be able to see you. Your energy is different from this world's," Lin Jingge reassured Xiao Shi.
Lin Jingge and Xiao Shi exchanged thoughts in their minds, while Lin Shu, who was gnawing on a spirit stone and glancing at Lin Jingge every now and then, seemed to be deep in thought.
After eating a spirit stone, she put the rest away. Looking at the eyesore in Lin Jingge's arms, she patted her dark little hand and reached out towards Lin Jingge.
"Hug!" He waved his small, outstretched hands at Lin Jinge, his silver eyes reflecting her image, and innocently begged for a hug.
Lin Jingge was almost swooning over how adorable the other person was!
However, as soon as Lin Jingge held the person in her arms, she noticed that the other person was covered in dust from somewhere, and their originally fair and tender little hands were also covered in black dirt.
