Chapter 109: Washing Marrow Pill (1/2)
“Tianyuan Grass? What’s that? This is obviously just a ginseng. It’s just a bit malnourished,” Yao Na looked at the medical herb in Cheng Yu’s hands and still believed that it was a ginseng.
“Try smelling it,” Cheng Yu moved the Tianyuan Grass under Yao Na’s nose.
“En. It does not have the smell of ginseng. Then the Tianyuan Grass you just said, is it very expensive?” Yao Na wrinkled her nose and gave it a sniff.
“To people here, it is worthless. I inquired about it, and no one in the market had heard of this grass before. However, it’s actually a very precious medical herb to me. Nana, I need to apply for leave tomorrow. I need you to follow me back to your hometown,” All this time, Cheng Yu had been worrying that there was no one that would be able to protect Lan Ya after he left. Unexpectedly, he was able to grab hold of Tianyuan Grass. This time, he could finally refine the Washing Marrow Pill.
However, what Cheng Yu thought was that since the Tianyuan Grass originated from Yao Na’s hometown, then there would definitely be more than just one stalk. With just a stalk, at most he would only be able to refine three Washing Marrow Pills. This was too little, as there would be hardly any effect. He had to at least find another two stalks.
“What! There are only 10 days left before the national exam and you want to apply for leave? No way! Even if this herb is so important, I will not permit it.”
“Nana, do you not have faith in me? There is nothing left for me to learn. It’s no longer a problem for me to get admitted to Yunhai University. But what you have no idea about is that to me, Tianyuan Grass is even more important than the national exam,” Cheng Yu spoke seriously.
“Alright then,” Yao Na wished to reject him. But when she remembered Cheng Yu’s mysterious power, she suddenly felt that Cheng Yu was actually very far away from her and that she did not know much about him at all. Perhaps, it’s just like what he said, the national exam was not important to him at all. Besides, he did possess the ability to do very well on the national exam with his current abilities.
“Alright. Don’t cook tonight. Let’s go out and have a meal together. Besides, we have not went on a date before!” After obtaining a stem of Tianyuan Grass, Cheng Yu’s mood brightened up as he said cheerfully.
“Nope. If someone saw us, it would not be good.”
“What’s there to be worried about? So what if a student has a meal with his teacher? Besides, after 10 days, I will no longer be your student,” Cheng Yu did not care about Yao Na’s opinion before he pulled her along.
When they reached the ground floor, Yao Na quickly swung Cheng Yu’s hands away as she looked around. After she saw that no one was around did she finally feel relieved. She glared at Cheng Yu before walking towards the school gate.
It was around six pm. The sunset shined on the pathway of the school and shined on Yao Na’s face. It caused the originally beautiful Yao Na to look even more sacred.
Cheng Yu looked at Yao Na’s sacred face and said, ”Teacher Yao, if you had a chance to become an immortal, would you be willing?” When they went out of the school, Cheng Yu become a bit more honest and would address Yao Na as “Teacher Yao.” Even though Cheng Yu didn’t mind, he still had to give Yao Na some face.
“Immortality? How can there be immortality in this world?” Yao Na laughed.
“I said if. It’s just an analogy.”
“If my parents were also able to become immortal, I would be willing. If I was the only one to become an immortal, what meaning would there be?” Yao Na replied skillfully.
“En. There will be a day.”
“What do you mean?” Yao Na said confusedly.
“I will help you achieve this dream,” Cheng Yu ended with this sentence and no longer spoke about theories.
“Crazy,” Even though Cheng Yu’s medical skills were very powerful, Yao Na never believed that there was anyone in this world that would be able to live forever.
The two of them went to a restaurant and ate happily. Cheng Yu would occasionally pick a few dishes and placed them on Yao Na’s plate, causing Yao Na to feel that she was the one who was younger between them. However, she liked this kind of feeling.
While they were eating happily, they didn’t realize that in the corner of the restaurant, there was a bald man sitting. He was holding a camera and taking photos of them being intimate.
After the meal, he reminded Yao Na to follow him back to her hometown. Cheng Yu then went home.
