Huh? Is it so easy to increase the male lead's favorability?

When Ji Yunmiao returned to the courtyard, he looked in the direction of Wen Jin's room again, and then obediently entered the stone house where the alchemy was performed.

Has no one considered the situation where two people are staying but one of them wants to go into seclusion?

Ji Yunmiao thought of the two small courtyards in front and back of "Mrs. Xu's" house today, and couldn't help but shook his head.

The spiritual energy was hovering from the roof, and it seemed that Wen Jin's retreat was going very smoothly.

……

The second day, the third day...

Ji Yunmiao carefully recorded Liu Jingyao's needle insertion techniques as Liu Jingyao had instructed on the first day. After returning home, he sorted them out himself and tried them out again with a ball of straw in front of him.

While doing this, he looked at the ball of straw without any shape or outline, and couldn't help but think of Wen Jin's substitute talisman again - if Wen Jin were here now, could he directly turn this ball of straw into a human-like body?

He looked at his hands. Why could the talisman master do it, but ordinary cultivators couldn't?

Ji Yunmiao pursed her lips and raised her hand again to summon the silver needle.

……

On the evening of the fourth day, Liu Jingyao flipped through the acupuncture notes compiled by Ji Yunmiao and closed them with satisfaction.

He made a "please" gesture towards Ji Yunmiao, and a demonstration prop made of straw and wrapped in pig skin suddenly appeared in front of Ji Yunmiao.

"Try it from the first one to the last one."

Liu Jingyao opened the first page of the notebook again and said to Ji Yunmiao.

Upon hearing this, Ji Yunmiao raised his hand and summoned out the silver needle.

As Liu Jingyao closed the last page again, Ji Yunmiao's silver needle returned completely to its place.

The air was silent for a while, and there was a hint of complexity in Liu Jingyao's gaze when he looked at Ji Yunmiao.

No, just four days...

Liu Jingyao sighed in his heart and put his hand on Ji Yunmiao's notebook: "You can try to get started tomorrow, and I will guide you."

It was a bit difficult for him to say this. Although he had prepared himself mentally, he still inevitably felt a little uncomfortable.

I think it took him a month to learn it...

……

The fifth day, the sixth day, the seventh day, the eighth day...

The twenty patients from the first wave who were on days one to four were seen again in turn.

Liu Jingyao once again put away the notebook that Ji Yunmiao had supplemented and annotated on. She no longer felt envious and jealous of Ji Yunmiao's talent in the past few days, and she actually couldn't let go of the notebook.

Ji Yunmiao stood opposite Liu Jingyao with his hands hanging down, looking down at Liu Jingyao who was flipping through his letters. There was a dull expression between his brows, making it difficult to tell his emotions.

What does he want to do? Ji Yunmiao asked himself silently in his heart, and always felt that Liu Jingyao's behavior was not a good thing.

Sure enough, the next second, Liu Jingyao spoke.

"Your notes are very well written. I would like to collect them in the library for my disciples to borrow." As he spoke, he looked up at Ji Yunmiao. As if he was afraid that Ji Yunmiao would not answer, he offered a benefit without hesitation: "Look at the herbs in my herb field. They are very old and rare. Some of them are even treasures that can breed companion spirits after being advanced. You can choose any one!"

Ji Yunmiao was about to say no but swallowed it back.

He once took a look at the herbs planted in Liu Jingyao's backyard from a distance. Just one look at them made him feel that they were full of medicinal power and made people feel relaxed and happy. He also wanted a herb field like that...

As he thought so, he looked at Liu Jingyao.

Liu Jingyao saw what he was thinking at a glance and immediately shook her head vigilantly: "Impossible, don't even think about it, at most three plants, and two of them can only be the herbs in the outermost circle."

As if afraid that Ji Yunmiao would really reject him, Liu Jingyao still made a concession.

After all, a new batch of disciples are about to enter Yaowang Valley, and the teaching materials on acupuncture techniques that have been missing in previous years finally have hope of being supplemented this year.

It's not that Liu Jingyao didn't make efforts for this matter, but these things are extremely cumbersome. He felt a headache when he compiled the textbook. He felt that he had to talk about this and that, and he would talk about things that had nothing to do with the needle insertion technique. He could only come back and delete it, but as he deleted it, he felt that it was not enough, so he simply taught it to his disciples. However, his disciples were not yet masters, and the textbooks he wrote had big problems in terms of logical order and the gradual progress of the techniques. A closer look revealed many loopholes that could only be understood but not explained...

So the matter was put on hold, and the course on needle insertion has been entirely practical teaching since then.

Now he finally has a systematic study notebook, which he simply cannot give up!

Ji Yunmiao shook his head: "I can take just one plant, but I want to learn how to build my own medicinal field."

Hearing this, Liu Jingyao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He sat up straight and gently placed the note that he had just clenched subconsciously on the table: "If you had said it earlier, this would be easy to talk about."

Ji Yunmiao said, "We can pick the herbs after Ah Jin comes out of confinement."

"No problem." Liu Jingyao agreed very readily. If Ji Yunmiao wanted to pick one now, he would still be a little reluctant - but now, he can say goodbye to them secretly in advance.

……

Early in the morning, the first thing Ji Yunmiao did when he got up was to turn over the fields in the yard.

In the morning, Ji Yunmiao waited outside the barrier in the back mountain on time, ready to see the patient with Liu Jingyao.

In the evening, after returning home, I would first check whether the herbs in the medicine field had sprouted, and then go to the alchemy stone house to practice the acupuncture techniques over and over again.

In the evening, I looked through some herbal books borrowed from the library and Liu Jingyao.

Before going to bed, I inevitably thought of Wen Jin.

Ji Yunmiao closed his eyes. After a year, the herbs in the medicine field had sprouted. Now he had become an eighth-rank alchemist, but Wen Jin had come out of seclusion but there was still no movement.

So is this the lonely feeling you get when you're waiting for someone to come out?

Fortunately, Ajin only waited for him for more than a month. Next time he goes into seclusion, he must be with Ajin, just like the time during the beast tide. No one needs to wait for anyone, and they share the same mind, which is great!

……

The next day when Ji Yunmiao left, he stared at the ball of spiritual energy above Wen Jin's room for a while.

Nothing unusual.

But after he left, a hint of ice-blue light suddenly appeared in the transparent spiritual energy hovering in the air. The light circled for a while along with the flow of spiritual power, and actually pulled out some of the large group of spiritual power on the top, forming another small group of spiritual energy.

The small ball of spiritual energy was wrapped in ice-blue fragments of light and went straight into the room through the roof.

In the blink of an eye, the ice-blue light fragments disappeared instantly.
