I came back and had dinner with Fu Mengfan; neither of us drank alcohol. After dinner, I took him home.
Before leaving, he asked Jian Ning to take care of Aunt Wang for a while, and said he would be back soon.
Although Jian Ning is not good at surgery, she can still work as a simple nurse without any problems, after all, the original owner of this body was a student at a proper medical university.
Tian Tian was very sensible. She sat next to Aunt Wang with a toy in her arms, waiting without crying or making a fuss.
After Jian Ning finished tidying up the table and returned, she looked up with teary eyes and asked, "Sister Ning, will my grandma never wake up again once she falls asleep?"
"No, don't worry, she's just asleep under anesthesia and will wake up in a little while. You should go get some sleep too,"
"I'm not sleepy, sister. I'm just afraid Grandma will wake up and not see me. From now on, I'll go to the rooftop to get snow so Grandma won't fall again!"
Despite her young age, this child is remarkably sensible. Jian Ning gently patted her head to comfort her.
"Don't worry, your uncle will be back soon."
You can contact me if you need anything. Don't worry about the water at home, my sister has some; I'll bring you some over later, that should be enough for you.
After hearing Jian Ning's words, Tian Tian nodded.
When Xiao Lingfeng returned, Aunt Wang had just opened her eyes, but her consciousness had not yet fully returned.
The dosage of anesthetic used might have been a bit too high, after all, Fu Mengfan isn't a professional anesthesiologist. It's possible that the dosage wasn't properly controlled at one point.
"Thank you for your hard work. If it weren't for you today, something terrible might have happened. I won't say much more about how grateful I am."
"If you ever need my help in the future, just let me know." Xiao Lingfeng's words truly came from the bottom of his heart.
"Don't be so polite with me. We neighbors should help each other out. Do you have time to take care of Aunt Wang?" Jian Ning asked, even though she wasn't very good at taking care of people.
“I’ve already spoken to my superiors, and it’s fine for them to leave temporarily. My mother’s medical care is completely inadequate right now. I have to take care of her myself. It’s not realistic to hire a caregiver from outside right now.”
Xiao Lingfeng had considered everything carefully. He couldn't keep bothering Jian Ning, after all, they were just neighbors, and she had no obligation to do so.
"Alright, I'll head back now. Just call me if you need any help."
After Jian Ning finished speaking, she put on her down jacket and went out the door. Then she remembered something else, waved her hand, and fifty cases of mineral water appeared in the corridor.
"Put these away. There's not enough water at home, so Aunt Wang went upstairs to get snow."
"Thank you." Xiao Lingfeng didn't stand on ceremony with Jian Ning. He simply put everything away. He watched her return to 1602, then opened the door and went inside himself.
As soon as Jian Ning closed the door, Huang Fugui excitedly popped out of her pocket.
"Master, isn't that Xiao Lingfeng? The number one genius in the cultivation world, the most handsome one? How did you run into him?"
"He has no memories of the Immortal Realm; he probably just looks like him. At first, I also thought it was the same person, but now it's clear it's not."
Although his aptitude for cultivation was equally extraordinary.
Jian Ning briefly recounted how she met Xiao Lingfeng to Huang Fugui. After listening, it collapsed onto the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Oh dear! So, we can't go back anymore? What's so great about this place? It's so cold, and there aren't any spirit stones. It'll be incredibly difficult to cultivate here!"
Seeing its furrowed brows and worried expression, Jian Ning went over and petted it for a while. Its chubby, fluffy texture felt wonderful.
"A few days ago, Xiao Lingfeng said there might be a jade mine in the mountains. Once the snow melts, we'll go and dig it out. It contains a lot of spiritual energy. It all depends on our luck."
"Really?" Huang Fugui immediately perked up upon hearing this. He jumped off the kang (a heated brick bed) and onto Jian Ning.
"Would I lie to you? Besides, I haven't even had a chance to check if there's anything good in the Immortal Abode yet. Maybe there are some good things hidden in those restrictions."
"Let's go explore it now."
Jian Ning was no longer in a hurry to cultivate.
Although the Foundation Establishment Pill in the storage bracelet can be consumed now, the chance of success is very small without sufficient spiritual energy to absorb it. It's still better to prepare items with spiritual energy first, and then there's still time to establish the foundation.
So he carried Huang Fugui back to the Immortal Abode.
She appeared directly in the cluster of buildings on the mountaintop. As soon as she appeared, cranes flapped their wings and flew from afar to ask her for food.
Jian Ning took out the silver dragonfish from her storage bracelet and fed them before stepping inside.
This place must have been a major sect in the past, because there are quite a few buildings inside.
For some unknown reason, there was no one inside. Only the three large characters "Xuanming Sect" on the mountain gate remained standing.
Outer gate, inner gate, spirit herb garden, spirit beast garden, scripture pavilion, alchemy room, council hall, treasure pavilion, martial arts arena, and exquisite treasure pavilion. Jian Ning's destination was very clear. Leading Huang Fugui, she headed straight for the treasure pavilion.
Unexpectedly, just as I reached the door, I was pushed aside by a force.
This building was actually protected by an array.
Although Jian Ning obtained this immortal abode, it hadn't fully recognized her as its master. Therefore, she couldn't enter at all. This was truly frustrating; she was looking at a mountain of treasures but couldn't obtain anything.
It should be noted that Jian Ning is only a sword cultivator, and talisman cultivators are only auxiliary; they do not know any formations.
Enraged, she kicked the treasure pavilion, but the consequences were dire. She was thrown back by the formation. Ouch, groaning, it took her a while to rub her backside and get up from the ground.
This formation is really powerful; it almost made her fall and break her buttocks a few more times.
"Master, are you alright?" Huang Fugui scurried out on his short legs.
"It's alright, even if we break the barrier, it will probably take quite a while. We can't force it. It looks like I'll have to learn about formations from scratch."
"Let's go check the Sutra Repository first; we should be able to get in from there."
Jian Ning turned and headed straight for the Scripture Pavilion. Sure enough, there were no protective formations there.
They could come and go as they pleased, but only on the first and second floors. The stairs leading to the third floor were blocked by a restriction on the first floor.
However, there were quite a few books on the first and second floors, and Jian Ning quickly found a beginner's guide to formations. She'd start with this. She could take her time; she had plenty of time. She had nothing better to do all day.
After leaving, she went into each room and searched them thoroughly. Surprisingly, she found five or six storage bags. The divine sense attached to them had been erased; they could be opened directly.
Inside, she found four or five hundred pieces of refining materials, various herbs, and spirit stones. This greatly surprised her; at least her efforts today hadn't been in vain.
