The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 33 Purpose
There was no light in the room and it was quiet for a moment.

The silvery moonlight shines from the window onto the bed, like frost.

Mu Zhen was still lying on her side, supporting her chin with one hand, looking at Lin Bai like a child.

Lin Bai leaned on the pillow and looked at her.

After a long while, Lin Bai said, "Sister Zhen, are we now honest with each other?"

Mu Zhen blinked and smiled slightly in the darkness, which was considered as his agreement.

"Sister Zhen, I lost my mind that night before. Didn't you see it?" Lin Bai asked tentatively.

Mu Zhen shook his head slightly, "It's foggy."

Sure enough! The fog blocked her observation, and that wisp of purple was proof of that.

"What do you mean?" Lin Bai pretended not to understand.

"I wanted to go in and take a look, but was blocked by the fog," said Mu Zhen.

"Is this important to you?" Lin Bai asked.

"It's about the theory of alchemy and the great way." Mu Zhen said words that Lin Bai couldn't understand.

"Alchemy theory..." Lin Bai didn't quite understand.

"This is related to personal experience and perception. You won't understand even if I tell you..." Mu Zhen looked at Lin Bai and paused slightly, "Just like Doctor Bai, he saves the dying and the wounded, regardless of whether the patient is good or bad. He seems rigid, but he is also very experienced in human nature... You can think of this as his 'theory of alchemy'." She changed the way Lin Bai expressed it so that he could understand.

Lin Bai understood, but seemed not to understand. He just felt vaguely that this was about the most fundamental thing about a person.

"You are making your own alchemy theory. Does it have anything to do with me?" Lin Bai was puzzled. "Sleeping with me is also your way to seek the alchemy theory?"

"..." Mu Zhen blushed, which was rare for her. "I thought it was, but later I found out it wasn't."

"Then why did you sleep with me later?" Lin Bai asked curiously, thinking to himself, did you find the fun in it? It shows that your heart is not strong enough.

"Practicing Buddhism does not require you to cut off all emotions and love, so what's the big deal? For me, it's just a dog bite on a long journey. I'll just take it as a way to sharpen my heart in this worldly world." Mu Zhen's tone became lighter again.

Lin Bai just felt that Sister Zhen was too good at talking...

"Then are you sure it is... the thing behind the fog?" Lin Bai changed the question, still questioning.

"You don't understand. This is the intuition of the heart of seeking the truth." Mu Zhen's words were vague.

You didn't say it was intuition when you slept with me? Haha, woman.

"Can others find me like you?"

After a moment of silence, Lin Bai asked an important question.

"No. I only found you with the guidance of my ancestor." Mu Zhen's words were vague.

Lin Bai felt much more relieved. His current strength was low. If those who had entered the Dao could discover his peculiarities, then there would be no point in playing this game.

"How capable is your ancestor?" Lin Bai asked curiously.

"Look how scared you are." Sister Zhen smiled meaningfully, "There are not many people in this world who are stronger than her."

"You have used other methods to investigate, right? Entering a dream state or something like that..." Lin Bai asked again.

"Your destiny is special, and ordinary means cannot break through the fog. At least, I can't." Mu Zhen replied.

"My destiny?" Lin Bai encountered another point of knowledge.

"There are thousands of destinies, and none are the same." Mu Zhen smiled, "No one can take it away. When a person dies, it disappears."

This seemed to assure her that she was not coveting it, but just taking a look, and there was no danger because it could not be snatched away.

Lin Bai thought of a lot at once. Since Mu Zhen wanted to take a peek at his own destiny before he could come up with the theory of elixir... then is my destiny so special?
Lin Bai couldn't be sure whether his destiny was special, but he was indeed special. Perhaps this was the special part of his destiny.

Thinking more carefully, there is another time inside the stone disk, and the mist can condense into objects...

This seems to be some kind of use in "time" and "space".

Lin Bai couldn't figure it out for the time being. He thought his vision was too narrow and his knowledge was too shallow.

Judging from Mu Zhen's expression, he obviously didn't want to say more.

Lin Bai remained silent, secretly wondering whether he should agree or not. Although he could not sense any malice, he was a blind man, but she understood everything.

"Then... let me consider it?" Lin Bai asked tentatively.

"Three days." Mu Zhen said.

"Isn't it too hasty?" Lin Bai was surprised.

"I also want to take it slow, but isn't this a breakup?" Mu Zhen laughed.

Can they sleep together even if they have a falling out? Lin Bai said, "What if I swear to death that I will not obey?"

"Then I'll kill you." Mu Zhen supported his cheek with one hand and tapped Lin Bai's forehead with the other hand, saying: "Didn't I just say that there are thousands of destinies, and they are all different. When people die, their destinies disappear. If you die, your destinies will fall into another person's hands, and I'll find another one." "It will be too troublesome to look for it again." Lin Bai decided to back down.

"Indeed." Mu Zhen smiled.

"Sister Zhen, why didn't you force yourself on me before?" Lin Bai asked.

"That's so boring." Mu Zhen laughed.

So now it's interesting? Lin Bai was speechless.

For a long time, neither of them spoke. They just sat on the couch, which made the atmosphere seem a little strange.

"Sister Zhen, it's still early, can I still sleep?" Lin Bai knew he couldn't resist, so he just gave up.

Mu Zhen looked at him for a while and turned away.

"Sister Zhen, will you get pregnant with my child?" Lin Bai asked again after a while.

"It's almost impossible. Besides, I have already used my spiritual power... You talk too much nonsense!" Mu Zhen seemed embarrassed and annoyed.

Wake up in the morning feeling refreshed.

"The latest time is the night after tomorrow. No one will be accepted after that."

Before leaving, Mu Zhen reminded.

"Then can I still come and sleep here these two days?" Lin Bai asked shamelessly.

Mu Zhen was stunned for a moment, and then taught him a lesson: "You used to practice diligently day and night, but look at you now! How can you succeed if you indulge in sex like this?"

"Don't talk about the second one, our eldest brother. It seems that you are pure and have no desires. I don't know who can cling to you more." Lin Bai retorted.

Mu Zhen frowned.

Lin Bai didn't dare to say anything else. He picked up the medicine box and went out immediately.

Autumn is coming soon. The weather is cooler in the morning, but still unbearably hot at noon.

When I arrived at the clinic, I heard Doctor Bai coughing.

Xiuxiu was boiling medicine nearby, her little face turned upside down, looking very worried.

"It's an old problem, it's okay." Doctor Bai saw Lin Bai's worried look and just waved his hand without asking about what happened last night.

Lin Bai knew that it was useless to persuade him, so he thought about taking on more responsibilities so that Doctor Bai could have more rest.

"First, pack some cough and fever suppressants, as well as medicines for children's cough and asthma and women's medicines. We'll go outside the city later to take a look." Doctor Bai instructed.

"I can go alone." Lin Bai was worried about Doctor Bai's health.

"That's right! He can do it alone, grandpa, you don't have to go!" Xiuxiu also quickly joined in.

"No, no, we need someone to help." Doctor Bai smiled kindly and said, "Then let Xiuxiu go too. She loves to treat patients. It would be convenient for you two, a man and a woman."

Lin Baiqing knew that it was difficult to change Dr. Bai's mind, so he had no choice but to accept it.

"Then don't overwork yourself in the clinic. Just close the door and go to sleep if you can't stand it." Xiuxiu reminded.

"How can a clinic be closed in broad daylight? Even during festivals, it cannot be open." Doctor Bai shook his head and laughed.

After Xiuxiu had prepared the medicine, she stared at Doctor Bai as he drank it, and only then did she feel relieved.

Lin Bai carried the medicine box, Xiuxiu followed behind him, and the two walked towards the north gate together.

After walking for a while, they saw someone selling candied haws, and Lin Bai bought one for Xiuxiu.

"You just need someone to take care of you, so you spend money recklessly. If you can't save money, you can't get married. If you can't get married, you can't have children. If you don't have children, no one will take care of you in your old age. Don't come to me for help when the time comes." Xiuxiu looked like she had seen through life.

"Candied haws can't stop you from eating, right? Give it to me if you don't want to eat it!" Lin Bai was so angry that he slapped her on the head.

"Eat, eat, eat! I won't say anything to you anymore." Xiuxiu said quickly.

"Xiu Xiu, have you ever thought about what you want to do when you grow up?" Lin Bai couldn't help but feel sorry for Xiu Xiu when he thought of Doctor Bai's body.

"Isn't this simple? Make money, save money, get married, manage money, have children, wait for the children to get married, and manage the family's money." Xiuxiu held the candied haws in one hand and stretched out the other hand, counting on one finger as she spoke of one thing.

A very traditional girl, except that she loves to manage money.

Lin Bai covered his forehead and asked helplessly: "What I mean is, don't you want to do something? Do you want to be a doctor, or something else?"

"Yes." Xiuxiu tilted her head and looked at Lin Bai, and asked, "I am the owner of a clinic and a female doctor, treating patients and saving lives just like grandpa. Of course, I have to manage the money."

Lin Bai couldn't help but laugh, nodded, and said, "Then I'll help you from now on. Don't think I'm stupid, and don't deduct my wages."

"I never deduct money... As long as you work hard, why would I deduct your wages? Do you think I'm a bad person?" Xiuxiu ate a candied haws seriously and solemnly.
