Fighting Break Sphere: My Days as a Tutor at Canaan College

Chapter 122 The Discovery of Xiao Family Green Tea

It’s too early at this time. I guess many people in the family haven’t woken up yet.

After Xiao Mei saw Xiao Yue coming out of the villa, she quickened her pace towards a remote corner of a building complex at the foot of the back mountain. After a moment, her figure disappeared from her sight.

"Is she going back?"

Chun Dai frowned slightly, and Xiao Mei withdrew her gaze. Although this scene made her a little puzzled, it was just a small episode in the morning.

He immediately put it out of his mind and continued walking towards the fighting arena.

……

An hour later, Xiao Mei and several family sisters who usually interacted with her came out of the fighting hall together.

After leaving the Arena, not far away, a sister pointed at a fork in the road in the distance, her eyes slightly widened and she said:
"Look, that person seems to be Xiao Yue?!"

“…It really is her.”

"Yeah, I haven't seen her for a while. I heard that she was assigned to work?"

"She applied for it herself. It seems that part of the reason is that her mother's condition has worsened. Don't you know that the people of the collateral branch don't live as glamorously as we do..."

"I know more about her affairs. Recently, she seems to have been assigned to serve the alchemist specially hired by the family!"

"Ah? Is it Liu Xi, whose reputation for lust spreads throughout Wutan City? This... this is too tragic, isn't it?"

"Who says it's not?"

"Hey~, why don't we follow him and take a look? To be honest, I'm a little curious about what the specially hired alchemist looks like."

"Didn't I run into him at the gate of the family mansion when I went out the day before yesterday?"

"I didn't go out with you guys that day, so I didn't see..."

"Okay, okay, let's follow and see!"

"…It's not good to follow others, right?"

"What's wrong with this? Ask Mei'er for her opinion. If she agrees, we'll follow her..."

"Yes, Mei'er, why don't you speak?"

Seven or eight youthful girls surrounded Xiao Mei in the middle, and they couldn't stop talking. They kept talking to each other, making Xiao Mei frown.

As if possessed by some mysterious force, she recalled the scene this morning when Xiao Yue came out of the courtyard and trotted back home. Finally, she said calmly, "Stop arguing. If you want to see it, just follow me up. It's not something shameful."

As the backbone of this small group, Xiao Mei's words instantly made the final decision, and the group immediately followed.

However, considering that following others, although not doing anything bad, is not a very glorious behavior after all, they just stayed far behind Xiao Yue and did not rush forward to get closer.

After walking for a while, about half a quarter of an hour, the girls slowed down their pace when they saw Xiao Yue approaching a courtyard.

It was already morning, and the gate of the villa was wide open. Xiao Yue walked straight through the gate and entered the courtyard.

rear.

From a distance, Xiao Mei glanced and found that this villa was the same one that Xiao Yue came out of early in the morning.

Xiao Mei blinked her peach blossom eyes and stopped in the distance.

"Mei'er, why don't you leave?"

"Don't you want to follow and take a look?"

Seeing this, the sisters around her also stopped and asked.

Hearing this, Xiao Mei slowly shook her head, opened her mouth slightly, and said:

"That alchemist Liu Xi lives in the other courtyard. If you go up there, you can just pretend to be passing by and look around curiously at the gate. But what if he is inside the house? Do you still want to enter the courtyard?"

"Ah? Doesn't that mean I won't be able to see you today?"

Hearing Xiao Mei's words, the girl in the small group who had never seen Liu Xi said with a frustrated look on her face.

In fact, she was not very curious about Liu Xi. It was just that today, when she saw that almost all the sisters around her had seen Liu Xi, she was the only one who had not seen him. She couldn't help feeling a little strange.

This may cause her to lack a common topic in small groups in the future.

"Are you so eager to see that alchemist Liu Xi? We can't judge what kind of person he is now, but at least his reputation outside is not very good. Are you sure you want to follow him and see?"

With one hand, she gently stroked a few strands of hair from her temples and tucked them behind her ears. Xiao Mei rolled her eyes slightly and rolled her eyes at the sister.

At this time, the girls around saw that the "wind direction" seemed to have changed, and they all echoed Xiao Mei:
"Yes, if that alchemist Liu Xi is as the rumors say, and you happen to be discovered by him and he targets you, you'll be in trouble!"

"...a sheep falls into the tiger's mouth..."

"..."

Suddenly becoming the "target of public criticism", the girl was at a loss. She pursed her lips, lowered her head, and had to succumb to the opinions of the majority of the group. She nodded and said:
"I won't go."

Seeing this, Xiao Mei smiled lightly on her pretty face, which was both happy and angry. She put her two hands behind her slender waist, raised her snow-white chin slightly, and said:

"Since everything is fine, let's go back to our homes now!"

As soon as she said this, the sisters around her were like eggplants hit by frost, complaining gloomily:

"No way? Mei'er, you just came out of the fighting hall after spending nearly an hour there, and now you have to go back to practice again?"

Xiao Mei curled her lips and said with a serious face:

"What else can we do? Seeing that Canaan College is about to start recruiting students, and the family has restricted us from going out easily during this period of time, haven't we traveled enough in this area of ​​the family in these years?"

……

After a while, the small group finally scattered on the spot.

People in groups of three or four were walking towards their homes at this intersection.

However, just as the small group of girls dispersed and went back to their homes, Xiao Mei turned around and took a few steps before subconsciously glancing towards Liu Xi's villa in the distance.

However, it was this one glance that made Xiao Mei slightly stunned.

Because the door of that villa was closed from the inside at some point.

"Why close the door in broad daylight?"

The eyes in her peach blossom eyes moved slightly, and Xiao Mei slowly withdrew her gaze.

She felt as if she had discovered some secret.

The secret between the alchemist Liu Xi and her sister Xiao Yue from the same clan...

"Is this the third day since he came to the family?"

Muttering silently in her heart, Xiao Meilian took light steps and continued walking towards the courtyard where her home was.

Xiao Yue doesn't look like a casual person. Haha... he was taken over in just two or three days?
-

In another courtyard.

inside the house.

Liu Xi, unaware that he and Xiao Yue had been misunderstood, was concentrating on purifying the medicinal ingredients for the first batch of pills today.

The number of times each batch of pills was purified increased to four times. This was the goal he set for himself last night.

Although he only tried the four purifications once on the last batch of pills yesterday and succeeded in one try, it does not mean that he can purify the medicinal ingredients of the pills four times at will.

This kind of thing, after achieving it once, needs to hold on to that feeling of success and consolidate it.

I believe that once he has mastered the four purifications, refining the second-grade elixir will be a natural thing.
