Jizhi was grabbed by the collar and thrown out by Zhong Xian.

Judging from Jizhi's condition, the food he cooked was definitely inedible. In order to prevent Xiao Xier from going hungry, he had to make a few more trips to the human world.

He felt a little depressed when he thought of this. After all, he was the young master of the demon clan who had lived for hundreds of years, but he couldn't even cook a decent dish.

Just when I was thinking about when to go to the human world to buy food, when I came back I saw Yu Xi wiping the blood stains left by Ji Zhi on the ground with his head down.

"Xiao Xi'er!"

He shouted quickly, took two steps over and picked her up.

Yu Xi seemed startled. Seeing him staring at the blood-stained rag in his hand, he hurriedly explained: "It will be difficult to clean up if the blood dries..."

She saw that although Zhong Xian's residence was empty, there was little dust and it was clean from top to bottom, so when she saw Ji Zhi's blood staining the floor, she hurriedly thought about wiping it off.

"Don't worry about this."

Zhong Xian threw away the rag in Yu Xi's hand, took her into the room and said, "You are the disciple of the Demon Lord and my sister. You don't need to do these things!"

After he finished speaking, he felt that his tone was a little harsh. He was about to make amends, but he saw that Yu Xi didn't care about his tone. Not only did she respond obediently, but she also pointed seriously at the only remaining pot in the kitchen and said:

"Brother, I can cook by myself. Next time I can make my own food."

"Do it yourself?" Zhong Xian frowned.

Hearing the doubt in Zhong Xian's words, Yu Xi thought he didn't believe it, so he immediately kicked his legs and got off the ground, pointing at the real fire that was still burning and said:

"First, you have to use a normal fire to cook."

Zhong Xian looked at her, obediently extinguished the real fire, and then made a hand gesture to throw out a ball of ordinary flame.

There are a lot of ingredients and seasonings in Zhong Xian's storage ring, and no one knows where he got these running and jumping vegetables from.

Yu Xi was too short to reach the table, so she could only move a stool and stand on it. She took the existing cabbage, sliced ​​it carefully, poured oil into the pan, and stir-fried it. Her movements were a bit clumsy, but she managed to cook a dish in the end.

I can’t say the food she cooks is particularly delicious, but it’s definitely eatable.

She had to master these essential life skills to a certain extent, otherwise she might not have lived to the age of fifteen in her previous life.

Just when she was about to taste the dish she cooked, Zhong Xian took a bite before her.

It's not poisonous and tastes pretty good.

But Xiao Xier is only three years old, how come she can even cook?

Just then, Yu Xi gently tugged at his sleeve.

"elder brother."

Yu Xi seemed a little hesitant. She hung her tail nervously, and her ears twitched uneasily. After struggling for a while, she finally spoke: "I'll just cook from now on. He, that guy has vomited blood, and it looks like he must be in a lot of pain..."

She was worried that if Zhong Xian continued to cook, he would use Ji Zhi to test the poison.

Although Zhong Xian said that Jizhi's recovery speed was very fast, at that time Jizhi's face was covered with blood due to the poison, and it was obvious that he was in great discomfort.

She didn't have any feelings for Jizhi, nor did she hate him. However, she still felt a little soft-hearted when she saw Jizhi being used for poison testing without knowing anything.

But according to what Zhong Xian had taught her before, people who are useful should be used, and she felt that doing so would definitely make Zhong Xian angry.

You're going to be scolded.

She would definitely be scolded, maybe even beaten.

Thinking of the punishments she had to endure for doing wrong things in the past, she lowered her head, not daring to even open her eyes. Her hands, which were tightly clutching the corners of her clothes, were shaking a little, but she didn't get any scolding for a long time.

Suddenly, she felt a heavy weight on her head. She looked up and saw Zhong Xian rubbing her head calmly and said:

"Xiao Xi'er, why are you so nervous? Just do what you want to do."

Zhong Xian saw her staring at him blankly, as if she hadn't reacted. He immediately snorted and laughed, picked her up and said:

"I didn't say you have to live like me. As long as it's something you really want, that makes you happy, and it won't hurt you, I won't stop you from doing anything. You should live as yourself, not as me."

Live as...herself?

Yu Xi was a little dazed.

She is a half-demon, but half-demons are lowly and many people hate half-demons, so her ears were cut off just so that she could appear like a human in front of outsiders.

She endured bullying, practiced hard, did not make any mistakes, and completed the tasks assigned by the immortal sect diligently and responsibly. She wanted to be a good disciple in the eyes of everyone and did not want to be scolded or punished.

She has always lived in the eyes of others, wanting to be what they expect to see.

So what was she like originally?

She no longer remembers.

At this moment she suddenly felt very sad.

Zhong Xian once said that living in the eyes of others is very tiring, but she no longer knows how to live as herself.

Yu Xi couldn't hold back her tears after all.

Her eyes were very round and bright, but when she cried it was always silent, with only big tears flowing out.

Zhong Xian stared blankly at her red eyes and nose, and hurriedly helped her wipe her tears.

Why is Xiao Xier crying again?

With the experience from last time, he patted Yu Xi on the back and coaxed her dryly:

"Stop crying, stop crying. Why are you crying? It's all because of that bastard Jizhi..."

[It’s all because Ji Zhi’s ugly appearance after being poisoned scared Xiao Xi’er! I’m going to go over and feed him a hundred doses of poison, and then beat him up a hundred times, and see if he dares to vomit blood in front of Xiao Xi’er next time! ]

No, that's not necessary...

Yu Xi choked. On the one hand, she felt that her second senior brother was so unlucky, but on the other hand, she felt like laughing.

Seeing that Yu Xi seemed to be smiling, Zhong Xian seemed to see hope. He wiped her face with his thumb and said, "Don't cry. You've cried like a cat. Go wash your face."

As he said this, he used magic to create a basin of water and personally took a towel to wipe Yu Xi's face.

Yu Xi originally wanted to do it himself, but when he met Zhong Xian's focused gaze, he withdrew his hand, and his red eyes curved.

She likes to be touched on the head by Zhong Xian, and also likes to be cared for by Zhong Xian.

Zhong Xian was relieved when he saw Yu Xi finally stopped crying: "Don't worry too much about Ji Zhi. He has no sense of pain and his body is resistant to poison. He only needs to eat the same poison three times to be resistant to it."

"No sense of pain?" Yu Xi was stunned. Thinking carefully about Ji Zhi's reaction when he was injured and bleeding before, it was indeed not something a normal person could have.

Zhong Xian nodded: "Yes, he not only has no sense of pain, but also no sense of smell and touch. His eyes should not be able to see colors. The only sense he has is taste, so he likes to eat."

Can't feel anything but taste?

Yu Xi couldn't imagine how lonely Ji Zhi must be.

"Is it because he's a 'medicine man'?"

Hearing Yu Xi's curiosity, Zhong Xian originally didn't want Yu Xi to learn about medicine men too early. After all, these things belong to the dirty and dark side of the world of immortal cultivation.

But now that things have come to this, he thought about it, nodded, and revealed a little:

"Medicine people refer to people who are fed with various medicinal materials. After the medicine penetrates their bodies, they will have better effects than the original medicine. At this time, the medicine people can be used as medicinal materials.

"Jizhi was a medicine man who was kept in a medicine jar since he was born. He was the only one who lived for a hundred years. When the master brought him back, it should have been the first time he left the medicine jar."
