Chapter 27 Injury
"Your mother is overworked. She has been using her spiritual power to stimulate the stove fire for a long time. Her heart and lungs have been damaged by the fire. She is coughing, weak, and has difficulty breathing."
Mr. Feng explained her condition to Mo Hua and continued:
"When she was first sent here, she could hardly breathe. I made some pills to temporarily relieve her condition. You don't have to worry about it in the short term, but you have to take good care of her in the future. You can no longer use your spiritual power to stimulate the stove fire, and you can no longer do the job of helping in the kitchen in the dining hall, otherwise her heart and lungs will be damaged sooner or later, and she will be powerless to recover."
Mo Hua was scared after hearing this, and couldn't help but bow deeply again, saying: "Grandpa Feng's kindness, Mo Hua will remember it in my heart!"
Mr. Feng helped Mo Hua up, smiled slightly, and said: "It is the duty of the alchemist to save the dying and the wounded, what is the gratitude. Although you are young, you speak in a serious manner. By the time you repay me, I may have been buried."
Mo Hua breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Grandpa Feng is a kind-hearted alchemist. You will definitely live for hundreds of years!"
Mr. Feng laughed out loud, "You, child, have been able to speak since childhood."
"My mother helps in the kitchen in the dining hall every day, which should only be four hours. She was fine before. Why did her heart and lungs suddenly suffer such serious damage?" Mo Hua couldn't help asking.
Mr. Feng said, "I asked the kitchen lady in the dining hall. Starting this year, your mother's daily kitchen hours have been extended from four hours to six hours. Over time, her spiritual power is more likely to be exhausted. Coupled with overwork, her condition is naturally more serious."
"Then the fire-proof hairpin is useless?"
"Are you talking about the hairpin your mother wears?" Mr. Feng stroked his beard and nodded to explain:
"That hairpin is of course useful, but that fire-proof hairpin is just an ordinary spiritual tool, not a high-grade one, and its own efficacy is limited. But it's a good thing that there is this hairpin, otherwise your mother's condition will only get worse. Even if she is cured, there will be residual problems with her heart and lungs."
Mo Hua was somewhat relieved, but also had lingering fears. Then he asked about the cost of the diagnosis. Mr. Feng "The steward of the dining hall came just now. They feel sorry for your mother, so they will pay for all the medicines. You don't have to worry about it."
Mr. Feng winked at Mo Hua quietly and whispered, "Since they are willing to do so, I will not be polite. I will naturally use good medicinal materials to make medicines and cure your mother."
Mo Hua felt relieved and thanked Mr. Feng solemnly, then asked in a low voice, "Can I go see my mother?"
Mr. Feng nodded, "Go ahead. Your mother has just taken the medicine and lay down. Remember to keep your voice down."
The wing rooms of Xinglin Hall were connected and several sickbeds were placed there for patients to rest. Although they were simple, they were clean and tidy, and there was a faint smell of cigarettes.
When Mo Hua saw Liu Ruhua, she was lying on a bed on the inside, sleeping quietly, breathing lightly, with a pale and haggard face.
Mo Hua brought a small stool and sat quietly beside her, looking at Liu Ruhua's face.
Mo Hua remembered that when he was just born, his mother was still very young, gentle and beautiful, and her smile was very nice.
Now ten years have passed unknowingly.
For monks with a relatively long life span, ten years is actually nothing. Some monks will not even change their appearance in ten years.
But Mo Hua's mother has become a little haggard, and there are even a few white hairs on her temples.
Thinking of growing up slowly, while his parents are slowly getting old without his knowledge, when he suddenly discovered, they are no longer the same as he remembered.
Mo Hua felt sad and his eyes were a little hazy.
Liu Ruhua didn't know how long she slept. When she woke up, she found Mo Hua lying beside her with red eyes. She felt comforted and a little distressed.
Liu Ruhua touched Mo Hua's head, "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be practicing in the sect?"
Mo Hua looked at her silently. Liu Ruhua felt a little embarrassed and said, "Mom is fine, don't worry."
"Mr. Feng said that you have to help in the kitchen for six hours every day."
"Six hours is nothing. Look at your uncles and aunts in the neighborhood. Sometimes they have harder jobs. Your father goes out to hunt monsters. Sometimes he doesn't sleep for days and nights. Everyone is like this..."
Mo Hua shook her head, "Mom, you are not in good health, how can it be the same? Is there a lack of spirit stones at home?"
Liu Ruhua sighed slightly and said, "There is no shortage of spirit stones at home, but aren't you going to learn the exercises soon? The lower-level middle-grade exercises should be More than 200 spirit stones, I want to save more, and then let you choose a better one. "
Mo Hua was slightly stunned, "I didn't tell you about the practice, how did you know?"
Liu Ruhua touched Mo Hua's head again, "Silly child, how could I not know? You don't say it because you are sensible, but it is impossible for your parents not to plan for you. Your parents are only cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, and can't give you the best, but within the scope of their ability, they still want to give you the best. "
Mo Hua's nose was a little sour, and then he took out a storage bag and said:
"Mom, I can earn it myself, I have already earned 180 spirit stones!"
This time it was Liu Ruhua who was surprised. She opened her mouth slightly and said after a while:
"How do you earn so much..."
Mo Hua felt better, "I'm helping people draw formations."
"Is it the Youyuanzhai in North Street?"
"Yes."
Mo Hua said, and then was stunned, "How do you know this, mother?"
Liu Ruhua smiled softly, "Your father told me that he saw you take out so many spirit stones that day, and suspected that someone was deceiving you and plotting something bad, so he followed you to the business, asked the manager a few words, and then found out that you were not deceived, but the manager was deceived by you. As a mother, I didn't know when you had a brother..."
Mo Hua opened his mouth wide, he thought he had concealed everything, but in the end he didn't conceal anything. He didn't even know when his father followed him to the formation pavilion...
Liu Ruhua touched Mo Hua's face and said with relief, "Little... When I saw you were so small and thin, I was worried that you would be bullied and that you would not be able to make a living in the future. I didn't expect that you could earn so many spirit stones at such a young age, and mother was relieved. "
"But you have to save these spirit stones yourself. Don't think that they are not a small amount now. When you have a high level of cultivation in the future, or marry a Taoist partner, have children, you will spend a lot of spirit stones. Save them now to avoid being short of money at that time."
Mo Hua shook his head and said, "Mom, I will definitely earn more spirit stones in the future, you don't have to worry about this. The most important thing for you now is to take good care of your body, don't worry about other things."
Liu Ruhua looked at Mo Hua gently, and wanted to say something, but couldn't help coughing. Mo Hua stopped her from talking and told her to have a good rest.
Thank you fellow Taoist Xia Muhong for the reward~
