The night passed silently, and when the sky brightened, Chen Qingzhu opened his eyes from his meditation, with a look of relief in his eyes.

Last night, she not only successfully entered the first level of Qi Refining, but also completed the consolidation of her cultivation.

Several days of spiritual cleansing finally caused a qualitative change, causing a layer of gray impurities to appear on her skin, and emitting a sour and smelly smell.

But she didn't care about all these. She just walked straight to the door, grabbed the padlock buckle outside the door, circulated her spiritual energy, and bent her hands in the middle, successfully bending the long buckle into a U shape.

His bones are weak and his muscles are flexible, but his grip is firm. He finally regained some of the feeling of being a monk!

After breaking through the first level of Qi Refining, although the body will not become stronger, the strength and speed will double. If spiritual energy is used, it will double again.

Even though her original foundation was average, after her strength increased threefold, she was already equivalent to a sturdy man who had practiced martial arts for many years. In addition, her speed also increased threefold, so her fighting power was already extraordinary.

Thinking about the original plan, Chen Qingzhu did not hide anything, but went to the kitchen of the nunnery with a gray face and asked them to get some hot water for her to take a bath.

Along the way, everyone who met her looked at her strangely, and many people couldn't help but cover their noses when they smelled the sour odor on her.

"What's wrong with her? She stinks so much?"

Chen Qingzhu ignored it and easily carried two buckets of hot water and his own breakfast from the kitchen to the room.

After getting the eggs and porridge, she went to the utility room first.

When she arrived, Hui'an was there too, wiping Huijing's palms with warm water to cool them down.

"how's it going?"

Hui'an shook his head, took the porridge from Chen Qingzhu's hand, blew on it to warm it up, and fed it to Huijing.

Huijing's face was flushed with fever, but her lips were deathly pale. But she had a strong desire to survive, and even though she was weak, she tried hard to swallow the porridge fed into her mouth.

After swallowing a mouthful of porridge with great effort, she thanked the two people with difficulty:

"Thank you... If I can survive... I will definitely repay you two senior sisters in the future..."

Previously, Chen Qingzhu had not yet broken through the first level of Qi Refining, and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he could not make any statement. But this time, it was completely different.

She picked up Huijing's wrist and felt her pulse. Fortunately, although she was very weak, it was not fatal.

"Don't worry, I'm here to keep you alive."

In Taoism, all diseases are caused by external evils entering the body and insufficient Qi in the human body. As long as this Qi is replenished, the body's natural functions can overcome the external evils.

Of course, whether it is local treatment or holistic treatment, treating the symptoms or the root cause, the spiritual energy required is very different.

However, in general, with her cultivation level of the first level of Qi Refining, no matter what the disease is, she can already overcome it, it just takes a different amount of time.

Her tone was firm, which made people feel at ease for some reason, but where did this confidence come from?

Huijing thought she was just comforting herself, but Huian looked at her in surprise.

Upon closer look, he saw that she was covered in dust and had a strong sour smell all over her body.

Chen Qingzhu had originally come to check on Huijing out of fear that she might not make it, but now that he was sure that the situation was not critical, he decided to go back and clean himself up.

"Eat something first, I'll come and treat you later."

"Do you know medical skills?" Hui'an asked.

"It doesn't count."

"How do you say cure?"

"We'll know later."

Chen Qingzhu didn't explain. He went back to his room to take a quick shower, then quickly ate breakfast, and then returned to the utility room.

Before I got there, I heard a crisp sound coming from the utility room.

"Huian, you are so brave, how dare you waste rice on a dead person!"

Huiyuan's harsh voice reached his ears.

Chen Qingzhu quickened his pace and walked into the utility room, where he saw the bowl of porridge knocked over on the ground, with the remaining half bowl of porridge scattered on the straw pile.

Huiyuan pointed at Huian's nose and scolded him:

"...I think you have nothing better to do than to waste your time on this dead man! Since you have so much free time, after you finish the tasks assigned by the nunnery, go and clean all the rooms in the temple!"

As he said this, he twisted Hui'an's arm viciously:

"If you don't finish cleaning before New Year's Eve or dare to do it half-heartedly, I will make you pay!"

Hui'an pursed his lips and said nothing, his already cold face even more frosty.

Hearing footsteps behind him, Huiyuan turned around and saw Chen Qingzhu.

There was a flash of surprise in his eyes. How come this newcomer had become much whiter after not looking closely for a few days? The originally sallow and haggard skin on his face had become as clear and smooth as jade. Although he was still a little thin, he looked much better overall.

But her surprise only lasted for a moment. She was the second in command in the nunnery and she would not say anything to a newcomer in a friendly manner just because of such a small matter.

Besides, she came here to do something.

"Oh, here comes another living Buddha!" ​​she said sarcastically.

As he spoke, he looked at Huijing on the ground with disdain, and a malicious smile appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"Since you're here and Hui'an hasn't left yet, there's no need to call anyone else. Just the two of you carry Huijing out and throw her in the back hills!"

Fear and despair suddenly appeared on Huijing's face.

She was still running a fever, and the wounds on her body made it impossible for her to move. It was icy and snowy outside and the wind was howling. If she went to the back mountain, she would really have no chance of survival.

It was the same for those who had internal diseases in the past. As long as they started to have a fever after "treatment", they would be sent to the utility room to fend for themselves. If the fever did not go away after several days, they would be thrown directly to the back mountain.

Once, she couldn't bear it and wanted to send some food to a little nun who was only fifteen or sixteen years old. But when she got there, she found that the little nun had been torn to pieces by wild beasts in the mountains after just one night.

She didn't dare to imagine how much pain and fear the little nun felt before she died.

Now, such a terrible thing is about to happen to me.

"Senior sister... I don't want to die... I will be fine... Please... don't kick me out..."

She spoke this short sentence breathlessly, which made Huiyuan look impatient.

"Bah! If I don't throw you out, will you be allowed to die in the nunnery and pollute our Buddhist holy land?"

"She's not dead yet. Throwing her out now would be murder!"

Hui'an's face was filled with anger.

Huiyuan narrowed his eyes when he heard this:

"You want me to discipline you?"

The so-called discipline is to beat with a stick, which is a more severe punishment than the usual whipping.

Chen Qingzhu stood in front of Hui'an and said with a smile:

"Sister Huiyuan, don't be angry. Go back and rest first. I promise to take care of this matter."

Seeing her good attitude, Huiyuan's expression eased a little:

"Well, I'll leave this to you. If I can't do it well, I'll hold you responsible."

"rest assured."

As soon as Huiyuan left, Huian glared at Chen Qingzhu and said, "You leave too. I don't want to see you."

She could accept that Chen Qingzhu surrendered to the tyranny of the nunnery, but she could not accept that she became their lackey.

However, Chen Qingzhu seemed to have not noticed her anger at all and said calmly:

"If I don't send her away, how can I treat Huijing?"

Hui'an's anger was immediately frozen by surprise, and then she heard Chen Qingzhu say to her as if comforting a child:

"Okay, Senior Sister Hui'an, go to the door and keep watch for me. Don't let anyone disturb me."

Hui'an didn't know what she was up to, but he still followed her instructions and walked to the door to stand there, keeping an eye on the outside while paying attention to Chen Qingzhu's actions.

She sat cross-legged in front of Huijing and placed her hand on her affected area through her clothes:

"Close your eyes and relax. You'll be fine soon."

Her tone was gentle, and there was a kind of certainty that came from a strong person, which made Huijing do as she said subconsciously.

In a moment, she felt a comfortable warmth in her lower body, which had been burning with pain, and all the pain disappeared instantly.

After a while, the warmth began to spread throughout my limbs, and the soreness and pain caused by the fever gradually disappeared.

She was so comfortable that she almost fell asleep.

Hui'an didn't know what was going on, but he noticed that Huijing's expression gradually became calm and relaxed, and the gray lips turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Her eyes widened in disbelief.
