Chapter 2 Mixed With Water
Inside the kitchen.
Lu Yizhou rushed in and saw a bowl of rice porridge on the countertop.
It should be the porridge that he cooked before leaving in the morning. He asked his second senior sister to help warm it up and send it to his third senior brother.
But the bowl of porridge was still on the countertop and had become cold.
"Second Senior Sister, you... Do you know that Third Senior Brother is extremely weak and unable to move an inch, so he can only rely on us to bring him food? If we are late, he can only starve."
Su Yu stood beside the stove, at a loss.
She started to learn the art of cooking from her grandfather at the age of five, helped in his restaurant at the age of eighteen, and opened a restaurant by herself at the age of twenty... She had served at least ten thousand diners.
But now, she can't even reheat a bowl of unpalatable porridge.
Lu Yizhou was anxious and annoyed. He really wished that there was some heavenly and earthly treasure that could wake up his second senior sister and open her eyes. Is it the time for her to continue to feel sorry for herself or even hate Third Senior Brother? She has high self-esteem, but now it is difficult for Third Senior Brother to survive. They are classmates after all. Why is she so cruel...
He looked up and saw Su Yu in front of him, who was holding the corners of her clothes with both hands. Her whole person seemed to be overwhelmed and depressed, with drooping shoulders.
Lu Yizhou was stunned.
Su Yu had very high arrogance. Two years ago, when she beat Sixth Junior Brother with a flying sword to vent her anger, she would rather be punished by the master than admit guilt.
At this moment, she seemed to be a little apologetic. Lu Yizhou had been in Zhiqiong Peak for ten years and had never seen her like this.
His anger was shaken, like the seven strings of his guqin, and he instantly felt bad.
"Hey, Second Senior Sister, I'm not accusing you. I shouldn't let you do such trivial things in the first place..."
Su Yu was still worried, but she raised her hand to stop him, saying, "There are no trivial matters in the kitchen. Don't talk about these. You first find a way to warm the porridge up and send it to your third senior brother."
Lu Yizhou nodded immediately.
Yes, he was confused.
He was also a little suspicious. Try to find a way to warm up the porridge? Is this difficult?
He glanced at Su Yu. He immediately picked up the porridge bowl, and released a warming spell.
In an instant, the rice porridge in the bowl was steaming.
Su Yu: ...
'How come he didn't turn the rice into powder?'
But this method was really convenient. If the waiters in her restaurant can do this trick, then the food can be kept at the best temperature from the kitchen until it is delivered to the diners' table.
Her eyes were full of admiration, and Lu Yizhou blushed a little.
He no longer felt angry and became relaxed. It was then that he smelled a strong grain scent lingering in the back of the kitchen.
He immediately looked suspiciously at the porcelain bowl in his hand and then at the cast iron pot on the stove beside Su Yu.
The source of the smell seems to be the latter.
It was a very pure spirit rice smell, mellow and viscous, which made him, a cultivator who stopped eating for a long time, felt a little hungry.
He wanted to take a look at what was in the pot but there was a wooden lid tightly enclosing the iron pot on the stove.
Lu Yizhou was about to move to the pot to take a look but Su Yu drove him away instead.
"Your third senior brother is still hungry."
'Yes!'
Lu Yizhou hurriedly dismissed his distracting thoughts and walked towards the courtyard.
Seeing him turn around, Su Yu wiped away the sweat from the back of her neck. She scooped up the 'unidentified powder' in the cast iron pot, put it in a bowl and hid it in her storage bag to destroy later.
After doing this, she caught up with Lu Yizhou outside the courtyard.
Her third junior brother, the swordsman Wei Zhao, was her first disabled junior brother in the novel. His golden core was shattered pitifully, so she had to go and visit him.
What if he can be rescued?
She walked into the second right-wing building in the courtyard with Lu Yizhou. She was about to enter the room when Lu Yizhou turned around to face her with a complicated expression.
"Second Senior Sister, Third Senior Brother can't stand any stimulation now. If there is anything unpleasant, please let him be."
He felt that Second Senior Sister seemed to have changed a little.
The way she talked to him was not as cold and domineering as before.
Eldest Senior Brother often said that everyone needs to be sharpened. Maybe after facing a burden, people can gain something.
Now it seems that Second Senior Sister is indeed changing for the better.
Although Lu Yizhou was relieved, he was also afraid that the second senior sister would revert back to her past behaviour and start a fight when she met Third Senior Brother.
"I know."
Su Yu replied.
Su Yu walked into the room and saw the patient on the couch.
The man's eyes were closed and his wheat-colored skin was bluish. He looked like he was only twenty-five or twenty-six years old. Although he was in a coma, he still held a domineering, copper-colored sword with minimal decoration in his hands.
He was actually sleeping with a sword.
Lu Yizhou lowered his voice when he said, "The third senior brother has always been like this. His sword never leaves his body. The senior brother once said that he is the most talented and most desperate person among us. As long as he can stabilize his golden core, he will surely have a smooth road in the future. But I didn't expect... God's will."
Su Yu felt the depressed feelings of the young man beside her.
Lu Yizhou quickly cheered up. He put the porridge bowl on the bed and helped Wei Zhao, who was in a coma, to sit up.
"He doesn't seem to be able to eat." Su Yu glanced at the person and felt that he could barely drink porridge.
"His meridian is damaged, and his golden core was ruptured. He is still in a coma."
Lu Yizhou was also glad that he had the medicine given by Uncle Master Li.
He carefully took out a jade bottle from his spatial storage bag and poured the fine powder into a small spoon.
Su Yu was stunned when she saw it.
This pearl-like, jade-white and lustrous powder seems a little familiar?
She couldn't help but touch her storage bag around her waist that seemed to feel hot because she was feeling guilty.
Lu Yizhou only poured about a third of a spoon and then put away the jade bottle. He moved very slowly, fearing that the Jade Pill Powder would spill out and be wasted.
"Uncle Master Li gave me this."
He immediately explained what happened and the effect of this Jade Pill Powder.
"But it is very rare, and the sect does not have any to exchange. On the way back, I asked my friends from the cultivator market to inquire about it in the medicine store."
He squeezed some spirit water into the small spoon to melt the Jade Pill Powder.
"I hope there will be an alchemist willing to refine it."
'It turned out this powder was really to be mixed with water?'
Su Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Lu Yizhou quickly put the spoon filled with diluted powder into Wei Zhao's mouth, who was still unconscious.
It didn't take long for Su Yu to see that her third junior brother’s sickly pallor became ruddier.
"Jade Pill Powder can make Third Senior Brother absorb a little spiritual energy. Otherwise, his meridians will be dry and stagnant, and it will be very painful."
Lu Yizhou picked up the bowl of porridge on the bed and tried to scoop some into Wei Zhao’s mouth. After all, the Jade Pill Powder was scarce and needed to be used sparingly. It was necessary to also feed Wei Zhao with some rice porridge.
But just after one mouthful of porridge was fed, the person on the bed coughed in pain and vomited the porridge.
"Third Senior Brother!"
Su Yu hurriedly took the bowl of porridge from Lu Yizhou's hand.
She knew that this porridge was unpalatable.
Lu Yizhou's face was ugly and he wanted to rebuke Su Yu, but at that moment the jade slip on his waist lit up.
He lowered his head and swiped it. A message appeared on the jade slip. He was overjoyed as soon as he read it.
"Someone sells Jade Pill Powder!"
However, as he continued to read, his voice gradually softened.
"A bottle... is 500 spirit stones..."
Lu Yizhou was instantly shocked.
Just now, he only fed his third senior brother one-sixth of the jade bottle. Even if he saved as much as possible, the bottle would only last for two days at most, equivalent to fifteen bottles per month, which would cost 7,500 spirit stones!
Before Eldest Senior Brother left, he told him that the peak had 8,000 spirit stones which were kept in his room and secured with restrictions. If anyone wants to use it, they need the consent of more than three people. Either him, Second Senior Sister, or other junior brothers and sisters.
But this huge amount of spirit stones is only enough for a month’s supply of Jade Pill Powder!
Lu Yizhou was dumbfounded.
"Second Senior Sister," Lu Yizhou gritted his teeth, "Can we use a thousand spirit stones first and buy two bottles for Third Senior Brother?"
Su Yu was about to speak when she heard a struggle and panting on the bed.
"No... use..."
At some point, Wei Zhao had gained consciousness. The corners of his dry mouth pursed tightly.
"I'm a waste... don't waste spirit stones...!"
He had already woken up and heard their conversations.
"You... go..."
When he saw Su Yu, Wei Zhao turned his face away and didn't even want to look at her.
Su Yu saw his eyes. They were slightly purple and shone like gems. She suddenly remembered an image in her memory when the original owner had ridiculed him countless times.
She blamed this third junior brother, who entered the peak a year later than her, for her stagnant cultivation. She tried every means to drive him away.
Later, Wei Zhao surpassed her, and she hated him even more. Every time he went on a mission, she laughed and said she hoped he would never return.
Su Yu coughed lightly.
'Well, as long as I'm not embarrassed, it's others who will get embarrassed.'
"That, Fourth Junior Brother, I'll be waiting for you outside. I have something to tell you."
After she said this, she turned around gracefully.
If the seriously ill patient doesn't want to see her, she will leave quickly to avoid getting him angry.
Su Yu went away faster than Wei Zhao thought, making him clench his hands.
"Third Senior Brother, in fact, Second Senior Sister is much kinder today." Lu Yizhou wanted to ease the relationship between the two.
But Wei Zhao interrupted him with a snap.
He struggled to push the copper sword he had been holding onto the ground.
"Take it, sell it."
"Third Senior Brother!"
For a swordsman, they love their swords as though it was their life.
Lu Yizhou's heart palpitated, and he said, "You can definitely recover."
Wei Zhao closed his eyes. Like a fish thrown ashore, he gasped for breath and continued to be silent after a long time.
"Now, on the peak... the one with the highest cultivation base is you... improve your strength, protect... junior brothers and sisters..."
When he was in the secret realm, he should have obeyed his eldest senior brother's instructions and not condense a golden core.
However, for some reason, a voice in his mind told him that if he didn't condense a golden core this time, there would be no better time in the future.
He was influenced by this devil’s whisper and proceeded to condense his golden core. Due to that impulsive decision, he has now become a waste.
In pain, Wei Zhao gritted his teeth. "Take it to get a third-grade crested qin. In the thirty-six peaks competition... You will lead the team. Don't buy any medicine for a waste!"
Lu Yizhou's face changed suddenly.
Wei Zhao stopped looking at him, turned his head with difficulty, and looked out the wooden window at his second senior sister, who had never smiled at him in his memory.
Now, everything is as she wished.
After a cup of tea, Su Yu, who was waiting outside the room, finally saw Lu Yizhou walking out with a depressed face and heavy steps.
"Fourth Senior Brother."
Lu Yizhou raised his head, and only then did he set aside his worries about how to protect the peak and how to make money to buy Jade Pill Powder.
His face was full of sorrow, "Second Senior Sister, what's your order?"
He was not in the mood to listen to his second senior sister complaining about his third senior brother's rudeness to her.
"Junior brother, can you identify this powder for your Senior Sister?"
What powder? He only wants Jade Pill Powder now. He doesn't care about any rouge or gouache powder. How can a cultivator pay attention to these menial things!
How could he know about these things? How could he identify it?
Lu Yizhou felt uncomfortable and just wanted to refuse.
As he lowered his head and was about to open his mouth to speak, he saw an ordinary blue-and-white porcelain bowl in Su Yu's hands.
Sure enough, a mound of powder was lying inside the bowl. It had a delicate snow-white color and was a little glossy. He didn't know this powder...
Wait, he knows this powder!
"Seni... Senior Sister, what is this!?"
Lu Yizhou was holding the copper sword with his right arm. Due to his shock, it couldn't help but shake.
Su Yu blinked.
'This child not only has a heart demon but is also myopic.'
So she got a little closer to Lu Yizhou for him to be able to see the powder clearly.
Lu Yizhou took a step back, not daring to speak as his breath might blow into the bowl.
He looked at his storage bag quickly.
The small jade bottle given by Uncle Master Li was still in his bag, and its position has not moved!
Wei Zhao was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, mentally preparing the fact that he would be a waste and bring down his junior brothers and sisters.
At that time, two figures walked into the room again.
Only this time, Su Yu was in front, and Lu Yizhou was behind.
Wei Zhao frowned and opened his eyes, "Didn't I say no..."
But the blue and white porcelain bowl, held by a slender white hand, was brought in front of him, interrupting his words.
"Third Junior Brother, it's shameful to waste food."
