My Wife Is A Sword Immortal-Chapter 126 - 111 s Gui Returns
Chapter 126: 111 Chapters Gui Returns Chapter 126: 111 Chapters Gui Returns A box made of purple sandalwood was opened.
A slender, delicate hand rolled up the sleeve and reached into the box.
A red silk handkerchief was lifted.
A black pill was revealed.
The hand used two fingers to gently pinch it and took it out.
At that moment,
besides Qin Ji lying on the sickbed, there were only Zhao Rong, Su Xiaoxiao, and Li Shida in the room.
Li Shida’s gaze was entirely captured by the “Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill” Su Xiaoxiao was holding between her fingers.
The pill was perfectly round and about the size of half a little finger, apparently sealed with a black wax on the outside. There was nothing extraordinary visible on its surface, but since the box had been opened, a fresh scent had filled the room, emanating from this Spiritual Medicine.
Li Shida took another close look and sniffed the fragrance a few times before speaking with a trembling voice,
“Teacher Lin, can this Spiritual Medicine from the fairy really save Qin Ji?”
Zhao Rong was serious.
“Brother Li, rest assured, this is the Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill… Oh, you might not have heard of it, but all you need to know is that it specifically treats this illness.”
Zhao Rong spoke with conviction.
Yet, for some reason, Li Shida felt an unsettling emotion creeping over him, his face showing worry.
Seeing this, Zhao Rong’s face turned stern.
“Oh, since Brother Li still doesn’t trust my wife’s medical skills, then forget it, Yuqing, let’s go!”
After saying this, he made to leave with Su Xiaoxiao.
“Wait, Teacher Lin, please wait, where are you going with this? I do trust the fairy, it’s just that I’m naturally suspicious by nature, and it’s a bad habit that I find hard to change quickly. Teacher Lin, Fairy Lan, please forgive me!”
Li Shida hastily grabbed Zhao Rong’s sleeve, blocking their way.
Zhao Rong turned his head, glancing at Li Shida with a sidelong look.
The latter gave an awkward smile.
Zhao Rong observed Li Shida’s expression and then suddenly nodded, turning back around.
“Fine. Yuqing, quickly give the medicine to Young Master Qin, we need to leave soon for another matter.”
Zhao Rong then said to Li Shida,
“Oh, I forgot to tell you, Brother Li, my wife and I had an appointment with the Emperor of Great Wei earlier on. We were supposed to go to the Imperial Palace today because the Emperor had agreed to help us look for a certain Spiritual Object and promised to give us an answer today.”
“Brother Li, don’t worry. It will take about half a day for Young Master Qin to show signs of recovery after taking the Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill. My wife and I will return shortly, and then we can wait together.”
“Ha, if Brother Li is still worried, you can come with us.”
Upon hearing this, Li Shida frowned, about to say something, but Zhao Rong’s following words stopped him, and after looking at Zhao Rong’s expression, he nodded after a moment.
Just then,
Su Xiaoxiao had already reached the sickbed, her hand poised to insert the “Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill” directly into Qin Ji’s mouth.
Seeing this, Li Shida quickly stepped forward, intending to prop up Qin Ji’s upper body to facilitate Su Xiaoxiao in administering the medicine.
However, he was suddenly stopped halfway by Zhao Rong.
Zhao Rong smiled and said, “Brother Li, there’s no need to trouble yourself, let my wife handle it. She’s a doctor and knows how best to do it.”
Li Shida stopped, slightly nodding, but his furrowed brow did not relax, his eyes shifting back and forth between Qin Ji, who was lying on the bed, and Su Xiaoxiao, who still wasn’t ready to prop up the patient to feed him the medicine.
Just as the “cure-all” Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill was about to touch Qin Ji’s pale lips.
“Mr. Li, Mr. Li!”
A shout suddenly came from outside the loft.
“Prime Minister Qin has sent a Communication Flying Sword back!”
Hearing Gao Yi’s loud voice once more caused Zhao Rong to frown deeply, and Gao Yi’s next words made Zhao Rong’s lips tighten considerably.
Li Shida, who had been listening intently, turned his head abruptly at the end of the statement from outside and rushed towards the bed.
“Please wait, fairy!”
Su Xiaoxiao hesitated a moment, then was stopped by Li Shida, who had reached the bedside.
At that moment, a formidable man entered from outside.
It was Gao Yi, whom they had just met at the entrance of the residence not long ago.
After quickly glancing at the distinguished guests summoned by Mr. Li, Gao Yi shifted his gaze away and hurried forward, extending a small, exquisitely carved pure white jade sword with both hands towards Li Shida.
Gao Yi was slightly out of breath.
“Teacher Li, this is for you,”

Li Shida took the Jade Sword, closed his eyes, and focused his mind.
A clear, solemn voice echoed in his Heart Lake.
“You all guard him well, do not act rashly, I will be there soon!”
Li Shida remained silent for a moment, then slowly opened his eyes.
He looked around at everyone in the room, seemingly pondering something, but said nothing.
For a time, the room fell into silence.
However.
The next second, Zhao Rong broke the quiet, chuckling as he spoke.
“Could it be that Senior Qin is coming back?”
Li Shida neither nodded nor shook his head, he stared at Zhao Rong for a while, licked his lips, and suddenly said,
“Perhaps Teacher Lin and Lady Lan should rest first. If there is any urgent matter, they can see to it first. As for this Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill… let’s keep it here with me for now, I will administer it to Qin Ji later.”
Having said that, Li Shida stepped forward and took the Spiritual Medicine from Su Xiaoxiao’s hands without any further discussion.
Zhao Rong raised an eyebrow, nonchalantly saying,
“Alright, since it is not urgent right now and we have some time, my wife and I will sit for a while at your esteemed residence, hoping to possibly meet Senior Qin upon his return and offer greetings to the Academy seniors.”
Li Shida nodded and called a guard over.
“Take Teacher Lin and Lady Lan to the Listening Rain Tower to rest. They are distinguished guests of our Qin residence and must be treated well,”
“By your command!”
Zhao Rong and Su Xiaoxiao followed the guard, and just as they were about to leave the doorway, Zhao Rong seemed to remember something and turned back with a serious tone.
“Right, Brother Li, the efficacy of the Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill begins to slowly evaporate once it is out of the furnace. If you plan to keep it for a long time, it would be best to preserve it in a special way, such as refrigeration with ice blocks.”
Li Shida smiled and nodded.
Zhao Rong and his companion departed.
Seeing the outsiders had left, Gao Yi immediately said, “Teacher Li, what were Prime Minister Qin’s instructions?”
“The teacher will be back soon, let’s wait here and not leave.”
Li Shida took his gaze back and casually said.
He looked down, closely examining the Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill in his hand.
A strange, fragrant aroma wafted up.
Gently squeezing it, the surface of the pill was sealed with wax and still warm; he wasn’t sure if it was freshly made this morning or if it had been held in Lady Lan’s hand for too long, retaining body heat.
Li Shida narrowed his eyes.
Originally, given the distance between the Qingsui Sect and Great Wei, old fellow Qin Jianfu shouldn’t have been able to return so soon, but surprisingly, he was arriving today. It was unclear what had happened, whether he had obtained the Spiritual Medicine or not, but judging from the tone of the message in the Communication Flying Sword, it seemed he had found a way.
Nevertheless, he rather hoped Qin’s treatment method would fail, so that this hard-earned Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill could be put to good use.
This Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill should not be used until absolutely necessary.
Since Qin Jianfu would arrive today, it was better not to take risks.
When he returns, if he cannot cure Qin Ji, in the worst case scenario, I will bring it out to turn the tide, and take a gamble, since the situation couldn’t get any worse by then.
And if he does cure Qin Ji, I can still present it to claim credit, perhaps even securing my chance to stay at the Siqi Academy!
This would be the safest, least risky strategy.
Li Shida thought to himself.
He came back to his senses and handed the Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill over to Gao Yi.
“Take good care of it, and arrange for someone to fetch ice from the cellar for refrigeration.”
Gao Yi nodded solemnly, taking the still slightly warm Six Flavors Rehmannia Pill, and turned to instruct the servants to get ice.
Then, the two of them stayed steadfastly in the room.
About a quarter of an hour later.
A speck emerged from the horizon, bursting through the continuous sea of clouds.
Soon after.
The sound of thunder arrived belatedly.
Qin Jianfu had returned.
