“Hmm, Master Qian’s fiery temper must have been accidentally picked up by his son when his spiritual energy surged.” Lin Jingge said as she talked to Xiao Shi and headed out of the city. When she said this, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
If the anger emanating from Master Qian comes from his son, then it means that his son is a fire-attribute spiritual master.
And the Fiery Flower, the companion flower of the withered vine snake in her arms, isn't it the best elixir to heal the turmoil of fire-attribute spiritual energy?
Clearly, Xiao Shi and Lin Jingge were thinking the same thing: "Gege, do you think they might come and steal the Flaming Flower?"
"I don't know, let's go back first." Lin Jingge pursed her lips and quickened her pace.
When she arrived home, Grandma Lin had not yet returned. Lin Jingge went to the kitchen and put the rice and water into the pot.
When Grandma Lin returned, the meal was just cooked.
After dinner, it was already dark. Liu Yan yawned and was coaxed by Lin Jingge to go to Grandma Lin's room to sleep.
"Grandma, don't sleep yet, I have something to tell you." Lin Jingge called Grandma Lin into her room.
After closing the door, he took out the Blazing Flower from his pocket.
"This is..." Granny Lin looked at the familiar flower. She hadn't thought of it before, but now that she saw it again, she suddenly remembered the information about the Flaming Flower.
"Grandma, you've been poisoned by the venom of the withered vine snake. This flower can cure the poison. I don't know how to brew the elixir, so you'll have to do it yourself." Lin Jingge gave the flower to Grandma Lin, instructing her to brew the elixir under the cover of night, just in case things got complicated.
Although Granny Lin didn't know how to make pills, she was still a pharmacist. In addition, she inherited the Lin family's pharmacopoeia and was once famous in Wildflower Village. Whenever there was a difficult or complicated illness in the village, people would come to Granny Lin for help.
Looking at the Flaming Flower in her hand, Granny Lin felt a pang of sadness. Although she didn't know how Lin Jingge obtained it, it was clear that snatching the flower from the snake's mouth was no easy task.
In the end, she didn't ask anything, but just patted Lin Jingge on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
“It’s not hard at all. As long as you get better soon, it won’t be hard.” Lin Jingge shook her head and then gave the five spirit stones in her arms to Granny Lin: “Granny, take these to cultivate.”
Looking at the spirit stone in front of her, Granny Lin didn't want it at first, but when she met Lin Jingge's expectant gaze, she couldn't refuse.
Afterwards, Granny Lin brewed a miraculous soup overnight to completely remove the snake venom from her body.
Lin Jingge was still worried, so she asked Xiaoshi to examine Grandma Lin's body again. Grandma Lin was not on guard against Lin Jingge, and Xiaoshi quickly told Lin Jingge the results.
Lin Jingge breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that the snake venom in Granny Lin's body had been neutralized.
The next day, just as dawn was breaking, there was a loud knocking at the door.
"Bang bang bang—" The urgent knocking on the door was like a death knell.
Lin Jingge opened her eyes, grabbed her coat and quickly put it on before going to open the door.
Upon opening the door and seeing the familiar figure, Lin Jingge revealed a knowing expression.
"Miss Mu, do you have the Blazing Flower?!" As soon as Qian Suisui saw Lin Jingge come out, she immediately grabbed Lin Jingge's hand, her eyes full of anticipation.
Looking at Qian Suisui in front of her, Lin Jingge pursed her lips tightly, and after a moment, she shook her head.
"I can smell the Flame Flower!" The pharmacist beside Qian Zhong said immediately when he saw Lin Jingge shake her head.
As soon as he said that, the atmosphere around him became tense.
“Miss Mu, you know my son desperately needs this flower to save his life. You can ask for anything, as long as you give me this flower.” Qian Zhong stepped forward, his tone still gentle as ever, but now carrying the oppressive aura of the Spirit King.
Suddenly, Lin Jingge felt as if she couldn't breathe under the pressure.
"You're too late. I've already used the Flame Flower." Cold sweat beaded on Lin Jingge's forehead as she forced herself to speak, enduring the oppressive aura.
After learning yesterday that Master Qian's son was a fire-attribute spiritual master, she guessed that this day would come.
After all, it wasn't a secret that she went to sell the withered vine snake. When she left the Treasure Pavilion, she was followed by many people who wanted to kill her and steal her treasures, but they all dispersed when they saw her enter the Qian Mansion.
"Impossible! You are of the wood element. Without the herbal decoction prepared by the pharmacist to neutralize it, you would have no chance of using this Blazing Flower!" It was the pharmacist who spoke up in rebuttal.
A pharmacist, as the name suggests, is someone who can use rare herbs and flowers to brew medicinal soups that can save lives and detoxify.
"How do you know my family doesn't have a pharmacist?" Lin Jingge glanced at the thin, middle-aged pharmacist, then walked over to Granny Lin standing at the door next door and stopped beside her: "My grandma is also a pharmacist. I've already used the flowers, we don't have any left."
The pharmacist was about to retort, but when he saw Granny Lin come out, his eyes suddenly widened: "Dr. Lin, what are you doing here!"
His remark about Dr. Lin successfully drew everyone's attention to Granny Lin.
"Why don't you go look elsewhere?" Lin Jingge stepped aside, shielding Granny Lin from the curious gazes of the crowd.
Qian Suisui, who had been watching Lin Jingge closely, was now at a loss. She had originally thought that obtaining the Blazing Flower would help her older brother recover, and hope was right in front of her, but she never expected this outcome.
"Father, what should we do?" she asked her father.
"Never mind." Master Qian's hopes were dashed. He knew that no matter how much he made things difficult for the person in front of him, he couldn't make the other party spit out the Flaming Flower. In the end, he could only have his men pick all the Spirit Grapes in the courtyard, leave some silver, and prepare to leave.
The pharmacist was reluctant to leave and wanted to talk to Granny Lin, but he never found an opportunity.
"Master Qian, Physician Lin is a renowned pharmacist. Why not have her take a look at your son? Perhaps there are other methods besides the Flaming Flower," the pharmacist said to Master Qian before leaving.
Upon hearing this, Master Qian looked up at Granny Lin and, following the pharmacist's instructions, invited Granny Lin to the Qian residence.
The Qian family mansion.
A fiery atmosphere filled Qian Duoduo's room. Those whose cultivation was insufficient felt a sense of unease when they stepped into the vicinity.
In the end, only Granny Lin went with them; Lin Jingge was left in the front hall.
"Sister, where are we?" Looking at the unfamiliar place, Liu Yan held Lin Jingge's hand tightly, feeling a little timid.
"Sweetie, we can go back once Grandma comes out," Lin Jingge, sitting on the left chair, comforted Liu Yan.
Qian Suisui, who was standing to the side, was too anxious to sit still.
"How good is your grandmother's medical skill? I don't know if she can save my older brother." Qian Suisui was extremely anxious, after all, her older brother was the closest person to her in the entire Qian family.
"I don't know, we'll have to wait for Grandma to see it before we can know." Lin Jingge had asked Xiaoshi on the way here. A surge of spiritual energy usually occurs when one goes astray in cultivation. Someone like Brother Qian Suisui is caused by using too many things that are incompatible with the fire element.
Although it's better than going into a state of demonic possession, it's still not so easy to cure.
