Chapter 723: Chapter 723: I’ll Treat You to Carrots
Once again duped by Yu Longting, the more I thought about it, the less I could stomach it.
After a bout of searching, I finally found the Cultivation Spiritual Garment I had lent to the Rat Spirit. My heart replaced with wild joy, "Is Rat Immortal Grandpa’s illness cured?"
The rabbit said, "He’s been better for a while, Grandmaster of the Lin Family, can the Rat Immortal Robe be returned now?"
"Certainly, certainly, I was just looking for an opportunity to return it to you."
I felt rather sheepish. If Yu Longting hadn’t reminded me of this by calling the rabbit over...
Having fallen gravely ill as soon as I got the Rat Immortal Robe, I had long since forgotten about this matter after all the tumult.
Then, I went upstairs and put on the Cultivation Spiritual Garment for Beichen.
Next, I took the Rat Immortal Robe from the wardrobe and returned it to the rabbit, "Here you go."
"The figure sewn onto the robe is my grandma, Grandmaster of the Lin Family, you really are reliable!" The rabbit’s red eyes almost sparkled with excitement.
With the Rat Immortal Robe on his back, he spun around in place.
The corner of my mouth twitched, and I quickly reminded him, "Hey, this isn’t the mountains, don’t jump around like that, the floor can’t take it."
"As if I like coming to the places where you humans live. I’m off, next time you come to the mountains, I’ll treat you to carrots." The rabbit said haughtily and then dashed off, disappearing into the night.
Although the evening was silent and dim, looking rather deserted, there were still a few passersby around.
Seeing a white shadow flash by, they were all stunned.
Most people took it for an illusion, murmured something and then left.
"I’m impressed, totally impressed with my brother," Yu Rongling stared in amazement, then started shouting excitedly.
He was so excited he was almost rolling on the ground, "What foresight and strategic brilliance, what far-sightedness and profound wisdom, a peerless talent for sure..."
Goodness, I’d underestimated the depth of his knowledge.
He rattled off more than thirty idioms in one breath, but this time, they were to describe his brother.
I silently scoffed to myself, he missed one idiom.
Being an onlooker!!
These four words were definitely more fitting than all the adjectives used by Yu Rongling, the brother-obsessed fanatic, put together.
Xiao Shenshen asked curiously, "What is a Cultivation Spiritual Garment?"
"It’s for... healing beings other than humans..." I started to explain, but suddenly felt a twinge in my heart.
It hit me why the Blood Splendor Robe was ineffective for Beichen—it was because he wasn’t "human."
Xiao Shenshen cupped her face, "Beings other than humans like what?"
"It’s for healing creatures other than humans," I said, my mood heavy.
Xiao Li being able to accept that Beichen wasn’t human wasn’t a problem for him at all.
This couldn’t be why her parents were opposed.
It’s not like the young couple would be foolish enough to tell their elders about this...
So what was it really about?
The more I thought about it, the murkier it seemed. It looked like I could only wait for Beichen to wake up and ask him.
Under the effects of the Cultivation Spiritual Garment, the black, unhealing wound on Beichen.
The black necrotic flesh fell away, and fresh new flesh grew in.
The wound also completely healed, leaving only two unsightly scars.
If Beichen could continue wearing the Cultivation Spiritual Garment, maybe even those two scars would vanish.
"Shenshen, two ice packs are enough, you don’t need to strain yourself. Go and rest," I said to Shenshen, realizing that Beichen’s body temperature was under control.
Shenshen glanced at Yu Rongling, who was sitting bored in the corner, counting his hair.
Biting her lip, "Can I turn into a bracelet, please?"
"Sure." How could I refuse such an adorably soft request? I agreed, feeling heartache.
Shenshen disappeared, and a stylishly simple Ginseng Bracelet appeared on my wrist, "Sleepy, Shenshen is sleeping now."
Struggling to keep my eyes open, I leaned back in the chair and fell asleep.
I don’t know how long passed, but I felt something being placed over me.
My body moved subconsciously, and the thick blanket that was covering me fell to the floor. Just as I was about to bend over to pick it up.
I saw a fair and slender hand pick up the blanket and place it back on me, "Sleeping in a chair? And not even covering yourself with a blanket?"
"It’s fine, I’m tough. What took you so long?" Seeing it was Yun Hao, I had already grown accustomed to his caring gestures, feeling nothing out of the ordinary.
Yun Hao pursed his lips and opened his hand, "I went by Granny Mi’s house, and they’ve all disappeared. The house was left with only a few rice grains with long black hairs. So, I demolished their storage, took some fabric."
"You demolished the storage?" I stared at the rice with black hairs, shocked.
Then I saw the Snake Servants filing in, each holding an armful of fabric.
