After serving the old grandpa a seat, Qing Qing started rummaging through the cabinets and boxes of the small wooden house in search of iron-made medicinal wine. Fortunately, Gu Feng had put some medicinal oil in the cabin because he was injured frequently.
"Old grandpa, you were able to walk just now, which means that your leg is fine. Now move your body and see where you're injured. I'll rub some medicinal wine for you first."
Qing Qing was very nervous as she busied herself with her work. She didn't notice that after she turned around, the old grandfather had a satisfied smile on his face as he looked at her back.
"Master? Why are you here? " Gu Feng didn't go far. Although he had scattered some powder around the cabin to prevent the beasts from approaching, he was still worried that an accident might happen. Thus, he only brought the prey from the nearby traps; he didn't expect his Master, who had always been missing, to appear here.
"Feng'er, what are you saying? Can't I take a look at disciple's wedding? Are you not welcoming me? " After hearing Gu Feng's words, the old man instantly became displeased.
"Master, you know that's not what I meant, how could I not welcome you?" His master was still the same, indeterminate, eccentric, and liked to tease people. Seeing his daughter-in-law in such a sorry state, it was obvious that she had been taken advantage of. It was really hard to imagine how terrible the Eldest Senior Brother's life had been, ever since he had been by his side.
Qing Qing, who was standing to the side, was stunned. It seemed like this old grandpa had been faking it just now.
'Ding … target's affability level increased by 2, current affability level is 32. '…
Gu Feng pulled Qing Qing, who had yet to regain her senses, over and introduced her. "My wife, this is my master. He's also my foster father."
"Hello, master. My name is Ruan Qing."
To be able to raise Gu Feng and even nurture him to such an outstanding level, this old man was worthy of respect. Moreover, judging from this old man's demeanor, Qing Qing felt that he definitely wasn't an ordinary person.
"Good, good, good. You are a good person, so it's best for me to collect jade. Now, I will give you this jade pendant that has been with me for dozens of years as a wedding gift." He then took out a flawless jade pendant from his bosom.
Qing Qing didn't understand jade, but looking at this jade pendant that seemed to possess intelligence, she knew that this jade pendant was definitely valuable.
"I can't accept such a precious item."
"You won't accept it? If you don't, I'll be angry. " Although she pretended to be angry, Qing Qing felt that she was really cute.
"Alright, I'll treat this as my family heirloom."
"No, this is for you. You must take it with you." Qing Qing was puzzled by the old grandpa's emphasis.
"Qingqing, this piece of jade can nourish the soul by your side. This old grandpa is not simple. "
"You mean he knows I'm an outsider?" Qing Qing found this unbelievable.
"That's hard to say. There are countless capable individuals in the 3000 worlds. But since he gave this to you, he shouldn't have any ill intentions towards you." This jade pendant can repair the soul that was damaged by entering the host body. "
"Hehe, Xiao Qi, do you mean that every time I enter the host body, my soul will be damaged? Then why didn't you tell me in the first place? "Hmm?" Qing Qing really wanted to drag this darned System out and give it a beating.
"Well, I forgot. "I won't disturb your reminiscing. I'll be leaving now."
On the way home, Gu Feng gave Qing Qing a brief account of his master's situation. His master's surname was Chang'an, and he was an otherworldly expert who was proficient in the Five Elemental Eight Trigrams Assimilation Armor and Divination Constellation Techniques. He had no children in his life and had only adopted three disciples, while Gu Feng was ranked second.
Qing Qing knew that Gu Feng hadn't completely told her about his master's situation. After all, even though Ruan Qing was his wife now, they had only met a few times as strangers.
