The next day.

Qin Gengyun opened his eyes with difficulty.

Although he had rested for a night, he still felt sore in his waist and knees and weak all over.

It seems that I have been practicing dual cultivation too much in the past few days and my body is a little depleted.

I must rest well tonight.

Qin Gengyun turned sideways and found that there was no one beside him.

Is Fellow Daoist Qiu out?

Qin Gengyun got out of bed and saw soy milk, fried dough sticks, buns and eggs on the table.

So rich?

In the past, when Qiu Zhihe went to buy breakfast, she usually bought one type of breakfast, but today, for some reason, she bought so much.

There was also a note on the table, with beautiful handwriting on it:

"I'm going to buy groceries."

Qin Gengyun couldn't help but laugh. This was the first time he saw Qiu Zhihe's handwriting, and it was so beautiful.

He put the note carefully into his arms.

Then he sat down to eat breakfast.

Before I finished eating, the door opened and the snowflakes outside drifted in with the wind.

Qiu Zhihe walked into the house carrying a large cloth bag, closed the door, and casually brushed away the snowflakes on her head.

It looks like there's a lot of snow outside.

Qin Gengyun quickly stood up and took the bag in her hand, which felt quite heavy. He complained:

"It's snowing so hard, why don't you wear more clothes? Come sit down and have breakfast. I'll go heat it up for you."

Qiu Zhihe was wearing a black plum blossom-patterned skirt and a plain velvet embroidered jacket on the outside. She looked a little thin. Even for a cultivator, if he had not reached the foundation-building stage, he might catch a cold.

"It's not cold, eat it."

Qiu Zhihe looked up at him, opened her mouth slightly to answer, then took the cloth bag from Qin Gengyun's hand and walked into the kitchen.

Qin Gengyun followed her into the kitchen and asked curiously:

"Fellow Daoist Qiu, what vegetables did you buy?"

Qiu Zhihe took out a large piece of spiritual flesh that was emitting a faint glow from the bag and turned around and said:

"I bought some top-grade spiritual meat today."

Qin Gengyun remembered the delicious broth from before and immediately looked forward to it:

"Great! This kind of spiritual flesh has always been scarce. I didn't expect that you, Fellow Daoist Qiu, have bought it again!"

Qiu Zhihe glanced at him coldly: "Why don't you go and make the elixir?"

"Oh, I'll go right away."

Qin Gengyun agreed with a smile, went to the outer room, sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace, and began to concentrate on refining the elixir.

In the past two days, he has completed 20 Yuqing Pills, plus the 10 Blood Coagulation Pills he had refined before, so there are still 30 pills and 50 bags of Qingfeng Powder left.

As for spiritual herbs, Qiu Zhihe has cultivated ten blood-clotting herbs and eight heart-solidifying herbs in the past few days, and she is still planting the remaining spiritual herbs in her spiritual plant pots.

At the same time, I also bought all other common medicinal materials.

There is no need to worry about logistics, he only needs to concentrate on refining the elixir.

In the outer room, Qin Gengyun sat cross-legged in front of the alchemy furnace, sometimes putting in medicinal materials, sometimes waving a spiritual fan, and closing his eyes to control his spiritual consciousness.

In the kitchen, Qiu Zhihe placed her hands towards the bottom of the pot. Red flames surged out from her white palms, and then turned into a slow simmer, cooking the spiritual meat in the pot.

Noon.

Qin Gengyun stood up, stretched his body, and had a smile on his face.

He has already refined eight blood-clotting pills, and will be able to complete the remaining blood-clotting pills today. He will have enough energy to refine five more heart-protecting pills, and in two days he will be able to deliver all the pills to Mo Xiaolan.

At this time, a rich fragrance wafted out from the kitchen.

Soon, Qiu Zhihe came out with a pot of broth and put the pot on the table.

Qin Gengyun moved closer and saw that the milky white soup was evenly sprinkled with chopped green onions, star anise, fennel, peppercorns and other spices. The rich aroma was very appetizing.

"Fellow Daoist Qiu, it smells so good!"

"Have a meal."

Facing Qin Gengyun's praise, Qiu Zhihe had a blank expression on her face. She filled a bowl of soup, thought for a while, added a few more pieces of meat into the bowl, and then placed it in front of him.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Qiu!"

Qin Gengyun took it, drank a sip of the soup, and immediately gave Qiu Zhihe a thumbs up:

"Fellow Daoist Qiu, your cooking skills have improved again!"

Qiu Zhihe frowned slightly: "Eat more meat!"

This is the wild spirit mastiff meat that the three ghost cultivators from the Blood Pill Sect found at the hour of Mao. It is of higher quality than the spirit mastiff that Meng Yu had last time.

When cooking, Qiu Zhihe not only used her own fire throughout the process, but also injected her own spiritual power.

If you take it consistently for more than ten days, it should be able to cure Qin Gengyun's fundamental damage.

"Okay!"

Qin Gengyun had no idea what Qiu Zhihe was thinking, so he agreed and ate the meat with big mouthfuls and drank the soup from a large bowl.

He kept praising her, and then served Qiu Zhihe a bowl, "Fellow Daoist Qiu, you should eat too."

Qiu Zhihe looked down at the soup Qin Gengyun had served her, was silent for a moment, picked up the bowl and drank the soup in small sips, thought for a while, then picked up the chopsticks and put the meat in her bowl into Qin Gengyun's bowl.

Seeing Qin Gengyun looking at her in surprise, Qiu Zhihe's face turned cold:

"I don't like meat."

Qin Gengyun was even more surprised. "Fellow Daoist Qiu, don't you like meat? Then you don't have to accommodate me. Just buy the vegetables you like tomorrow."

"Who indulged you?! Eat now!"

Qiu Zhihe snorted coldly. Qin Gengyun didn't dare to say anything more and quickly lowered his head to eat.

The broth was so delicious that Qin Gengyun finished it all in no time. He felt that the energy he had consumed in the past three days had been restored.

Qiu Zhihe saw that he had finished eating, observed his expression, and asked:

"How does it feel?"

If the foundation is damaged, observe the recovery every day. If necessary, add some spiritual herbs that help heal the wound to the spiritual meat soup.

Qin Gengyun saw Qiu Zhihe's big watery eyes, her little mouth slightly open, and the mountains and rivers undulating, and thought she was concerned about the dual cultivation, so he laughed and said:

"Fellow Daoist Qiu, don't worry, my energy has recovered, and we can continue tonight!"

Then he added: "But you still can't indulge in sex. Five times a night is fine. What do you think?"

Qiu Zhihe was startled, and a layer of frost suddenly covered her pretty face: "Go wash the dishes!"

"oh."

Qin Gengyun didn't know why she was angry again, so he quickly agreed, cleaned up the dishes and went into the kitchen.

When he walked into the kitchen, the frost on Qiu Zhihe's round little face disappeared, and two red clouds of shame and annoyance appeared.

Who asked you this?

Shameless!

After lunch, Qin Gengyun continued to make the elixir.

By the time of Shen, the remaining blood-clotting pills were completed, and five heart-protecting pills were also refined.

Then he took out six pieces of spiritual marrow and began to practice.

Qiu Zhihe was sitting cross-legged on the bed, also practicing.

The two seemed to have some kind of tacit understanding. Qin Gengyun never asked Qiu Zhihe about his skills and cultivation, and Qiu Zhihe never asked about the details of Qin Gengyun's cultivation.

They just practice like this and don't disturb each other.

Time passed quickly and night fell.

Qin Gengyun opened his eyes, looked at the six pieces of spiritual essence fragments in front of him, and called up the attribute panel.

[Cultivation +12]

[Cultivation: Qi training level 3, 152/500]

Refining a piece of spiritual marrow can increase 2 points, and six pieces of spiritual marrow can increase 12 points.

Add in the 15 points gained from five dual cultivations every night, and you can increase it by 27 points a day.

Compared with the previous three days and ten times of dual cultivation, which could increase 36 points every day, the increase is smaller, but it will not consume excessive energy and is a long-term plan.

Then, it’s time to practice dual cultivation again.

Qin Gengyun looked at Qiu Zhihe who was sitting on the bed. At this moment Qiu Zhihe also opened her eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Qiu, shall we... take a break?"
