Chapter 67 Ink-Colored Ring: Senior Brother, don't you have any spiritual roots...?
Seeing that the two intended to reminisce in the street, Qin Fang quickly interrupted:
"Senior brother..."
"This isn't the place to reminisce. Let's find somewhere else to talk in detail."
Qin Fang's voice rang out, and Han Li was jolted awake from his reverie, noticing the prying gazes around him.
"Alright!"
"Then we..."
Han Li was a cautious person by nature, and even if Qin Fang hadn't said anything, he probably would have figured it out soon enough.
"Then let's go to my house! My mother lives there too."
Just as Han Li was about to look for a suitable place, Mo Caihuan suddenly spoke up.
"Is Fourth Master's wife here too?"
Han Li was surprised.
"Yes, senior brother! My mother is sick..."
"And she's very ill. If it were you, perhaps you could save her?"
So that's why Mo Caihuan invited him despite the fact that there was a stranger present.
"Can……"
"As long as it's not some intractable disease, I can still think of a way."
Han Li was, after all, a disciple of Doctor Mo. Although he did not learn any cultivation techniques from Mo Juren, he did learn a great deal about medicine.
It's just a mortal getting sick; for Han Li, who is already a Foundation Establishment cultivator, it shouldn't be a big problem.
"Then...shall we go?"
"This place is really not suitable for lingering."
Qin Fang said, looking at Mo Caihuan.
The woman nodded slightly and led the way.
...Mo Caihuan's residence in Yanjiabao was not very far away.
Even the place where they had the chance encounter with Han Li was just across the street.
Therefore, the group did not spend too long before stopping in front of a small shop.
"here?"
Han Li was somewhat taken aback.
This is clearly not a place for an ordinary person to own a small shop on the street...
Yes, this is the place.
"My mother and I run a small business here, hoping to earn some spirit stones so we can buy some medicine to help my mother manage her illness."
When Mo Caihuan spoke of her mother's illness, tears welled up in her eyes.
Even so, she composed herself, pushed open the door first, and called out cheerfully into the room:
"Mother, look who I brought!"
Following the sound, Qin Fang followed Han Li's footsteps and stepped into the store.
"Who else could come?"
"Ever since Uncle Zhu passed away, only Aunt Xianglian next door has been able to come over for a visit..."
Inside the house, came the weak and feeble voice of an old woman.
"No!"
"It's my senior brother! I met him inside the fortress!"
Mo Caihuan was extremely excited.
"Senior brother?"
"Are you perhaps suffering from hysteria, child? Didn't your fellow disciples all pass away a long time ago?"
The old woman's voice clearly showed some worry.
Now that their family is already struggling due to their illness, if anything else were to happen, they would truly be devastated.
Immediately...
The old woman inside immediately spotted Han Li, who had entered the shop first.
"Who are you……"
"Han Li?"
The old woman had a look on her face as if she had seen a ghost.
Compared to many years ago, time seems to have left no trace on Han Li!
Upon hearing the question, the old woman was both surprised and secretly hopeful as she looked at Han Li.
"Greetings, Fourth Master's Wife."
Han Li replied.
"You... you actually still acknowledge me as your teacher's wife... you don't hold a grudge about what happened back then?!"
Upon hearing the title "Fourth Master's Wife," the old woman spoke to Han Li with a mixture of joy and shock, expressing a profound sense of emotion.
"As for what happened back then... let's leave aside the rights and wrongs between me and Master Mo for now."
"But the master-disciple relationship between me and Master Mo is genuine, so it is only right that I call you Master's Wife."
Han Li glanced at Qin Fang behind him out of the corner of his eye, then said with a smile.
Now that he has taken on a new master, he and Qin Fang share the same master...
Moreover, even though Qin Fang was considered one of the better people in Han Li's mind, Han Li still didn't want to reveal too much about many old stories.
Han Li didn't care about his relationship with Doctor Mo.
Even if Han Li's current master, Li Huayuan, found out, he certainly wouldn't care. He was just Han Li's mortal master during his mortal years.
"yes……"
"yes……"
"Cough cough cough..."
As if she had thought of something, or perhaps because Qin Fang and his clone entered the shop, the already seriously ill old woman was startled and suddenly started coughing violently.
"Mother! Are you alright, Senior Brother...?"
Upon seeing this, Mo Caihuan immediately rushed forward to support her mother, her face filled with panic as she looked at Han Li.
"Let me take a look."
Without the slightest hesitation, Han Li stepped forward and grabbed the old woman's wrist to feel her pulse.
Upon seeing this, Qin Fang's eyes twitched almost imperceptibly, and he made his clone even more restrained in its aura.
This is indeed his problem. No matter what, this clone is cultivating demonic techniques! It inherently carries a hint of intimidating power.
After he subdued himself considerably, even ordinary people wouldn't feel anything, but... this old woman was already weak, and being startled by this barely perceptible aura still caused her some problems.
After Qin Fang suppressed the aura of his clone once again, he felt it was still not enough, so he immediately sent the clone out of the shop and stood outside the door as a door god.
Han Li, who was standing to the side, naturally noticed Qin Fang's subtle movement, and his evaluation of Qin Fang rose to another level.
There's not much to say about the rest of the treatment process...
Even if he wanted to say something, Qin Fang wouldn't understand at all! There was no relevant information in the original owner's memories; it was all about cultivation.
Qin Fang, after transmigrating, has been constantly busy. Even though he knows he will need to refine pills and take medicine himself in the future, it would be best to master some medical principles and alchemy.
It's a pity I haven't had the time!
Therefore, Qin Fang couldn't understand the process of treating Han Li at all... so he could only watch silently from the side.
Under Han Li's questioning, the old woman recounted the story of the Mo family's destruction back then, which Qin Fang listened to with great interest.
Afterwards, Han Li even helped Mo Caihuan intimidate a Qi Refining cultivator from Yan Family Fortress!
This person seems to be forcing Mo Caihuan to marry him, and using his identity as a cultivator to constantly suppress Mo Caihuan's family.
However, when Qin Fang and the other three Foundation Establishment cultivators showed up to support him, the Qi Refining cultivator of a different surname almost wet himself on the spot.
He was just a mere cultivator with five spiritual roots; he had never seen anything like this before!
On the way back, Mo Caihuan seemed to have reverted to her mischievous and clever personality, chattering incessantly at her senior brother Han Li.
"Senior brother, what level is your cultivation technique at?"
"That guy, the moment he saw you come knocking, he was like a mouse seeing a cat, terrified out of his wits, and kept calling you 'senior' while making that ridiculous face, as if he'd seen his own ancestor!"
The ink-colored eyebrows danced with vibrant colors.
In response, Han Li simply said, "I am only one level higher in cultivation than him. He should indeed call me senior."
He even thought to himself regarding Mo Caihuan's previous words: "In the face of Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment is an existence even more terrifying than a living ancestor!"
Throughout the journey, Qin Fang showed little interest; he was only there because of Han Li.
until……
His eyes lit up immediately when he heard those words!
"Senior brother, is it really impossible to become a cultivator without spiritual roots?"
The ink-colored ring spoke slowly.
