Ling Yun was caught off guard as he stood there with his arms wide open. "Erm … Lingyu, what's wrong?"
Ning Lingyu hugged Ling Yun tightly as if she was afraid that he would disappear again. She only let go after a long time and raised her head.
Ling Yun saw Ning Lingyu's haggard expression and red eyes. He asked curiously, "Lingyu, who bullied you? Why are your eyes so red? "
"I stayed up all night! I was waiting for you! " Ning Lingyu would never tell him that she had secretly cried a few times because she was worried about him.
"Why did you wait for me? Didn't I say that I would be home very late? You don't have to wait for me. Furthermore, I have the house keys."
Ning Lingyu pouted and glared at Ling Yun. "How did you come home very late? You didn't come home for the whole night! I … Mom and I were so worried! "
"Didn't I go to exercise? What are you worried about?"
"You can't possibly spend the whole night exercising, right? You didn't even bring your phone with you, so we couldn't contact you at all! "
"Erm … I ran for ten kilometers and was really tired. I didn't expect to fall asleep after a short nap. When I woke up, it was already early in the morning …"
Ling Yun came up with an excuse that he had prepared beforehand.
Ning Lingyu stared into Ling Yun's eyes. Seeing that her brother's eyes were clear and transparent, she could not help but burst into laughter. Her beautiful smile bloomed under the sun like a spring flower.
To Ning Lingyu, it was as if her brother's return was the happiest thing in the world.
"Really, just to lose weight, you actually went to sleep on the streets. Did you have to? No one blamed you for being fat …"
No one blamed me for being fat? Ling Yun thought to himself. Just the day before yesterday, they were all calling me fat pig. If it wasn't for me killing everyone …
"Ah! Brother, you really seem to have lost weight! " Ning Lingyu exclaimed as if she had discovered a new continent. She could not help but stretch out her fingers to press on Ling Yun's dimple on his left cheek.
In this world, Ning Lingyu was probably the only one who dared to touch Ling Yun like that.
Lingyu mischievously pinched the dimples on her cheeks. Lingyun could not help but giggle, "Of course, big brother is trying so hard to lose weight, there should be some results, right?"
Ning Lingyu giggled as a strange light flashed in her eyes. Suddenly, she stretched out her hands and hugged Lingyun's left arm in her embrace.
"Let's go home."
"Mom, Brother is back!" Ning Lingyu shouted into the house as soon as she entered the backyard.
Very quickly, Qin Qiuyue walked out of the house to the door. Her concerned gaze fell on Ling Yun. After a brief glance, a trace of astonishment appeared on her face, but it quickly disappeared.
"It's good that you're back. Lingyun, if you don't come back at night, just tell me directly so that your sister won't worry about you."
Ling Yun had wanted to explain further, but Qin Qiuyue did not even give him the chance to. She seemed to have even given him the right to not return home at night.
The cleansing was complete. Actually, Ling Yun had already been cleansed by the Immortal Spiritual Energy when he was reborn. He had already been reborn. Now that he had reached the pinnacle of Physique Tempering Stage Level 2, his body was flawless and free of impurities.
That was how the refreshing, unique, and attractive aura he exuded came about. Otherwise, Liu Li would not have lost her composure after looking at him for a while.
However, Ling Yun held onto the towel that Ning Lingyu obediently handed to him. Looking at the toothpaste and toothbrush that Ning Lingyu had prepared for him, he could not reject her kind intentions.
After the family finished breakfast, it was close to eight o 'clock. Ning Lingyu cleared the dining table and Qin Qiuyue smiled gently at Ling Yun. "You didn't sleep well last night, go and have a good sleep. You might have lost weight, but don't overwork yourself and cause any problems …"
Ling Yun nodded his head in embarrassment.
When he returned to his bedroom, he found that his phone was already charged. He inserted the sim card with the number "20999999" into his phone and switched it on.
Xue Meining had said that she would give him a call today. Furthermore, Tang Meng would definitely contact him today to inform him of the results of the house search.
Then, Ling Yun began to inspect his bedroom.
The layout of the bedroom was very simple. There was a bed, a bookshelf, a study table, a chair, and a clothes rack.
Although it was simple, everything in the bedroom was neat and tidy. Not a single speck of dust could be seen.
The sandalwood box was still in its original position, untouched.
"Mother sure is calm. Anyone who sees this sandalwood box can tell that it's something good, but she doesn't even care about it."
Ling Yun muttered to himself.
What he did not know was that it was not only Qin Qiuyue who did not ask about it. Last night, when Ning Lingyu wanted to open the sandalwood box out of curiosity, Qin Qiuyue stopped her from doing so.
"You are not allowed to touch the things that your brother brought back." These were Qin Qiuyue's exact words.
Ling Yun opened the bookshelf again. "So many medical books, this kid …"
The bookshelf was divided into two rows. Both were filled with all kinds of medical books. The upper row, where it was easy to reach, was filled with modern western medicine books. The lower row, however, was filled with Chinese medicine books.
Ling Yun was not the least bit interested in western medicine. He bent down and started checking the Chinese medicine books at the bottom of the bookshelf.
"'Compendium of Materia Medica', 'Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases', 'Classic of Medicine', 'Shennong's Classic of Materia Medica', 'Classic of Difficulties', 'Huangdi's Canon of Internal Medicine', 'Treatise on Acupuncture', 'Classic of Pulse' …"
"So this is Chinese medicine. There are so many of them. Instead of studying, you spend all your time researching this? You must have been tormented by your poor health all these years. "Ling Yun muttered to himself.
"Eh! 'Huangdi's Canon of Internal Medicine'?! It can't be so coincidental, right?! "
Ling Yun inadvertently saw a thin blue-black book at the edge of the bookshelf. His heart skipped a beat!
It was impossible for him not to be shocked. This was because he had entered the Cultivation World as a doctor. In the end, he had embarked on the path of cultivation because he had accidentally stumbled upon an unremarkable medical book when he was young.
That book was called 'The Spiritual Pivot'!
He had learned the Nine Needles of The Spiritual Pivot from 'The Spiritual Pivot'.
"With the addition of 'Huangdi's Canon of Internal Medicine', it shouldn't be the same thing, right? However, just the words' The Spiritual Pivot 'alone is worth studying … "
"Huangdi's Canon of Internal Medicine … Is the Yellow Emperor the guy who fought against Chiyou in the Battle of Zhuolu and defeated Chiyou with his chariot?"
Even though Ling Yun had yet to delve too deeply into the ancient myths of Huaxia, the fragmented memories in his mind contained fragments of these memories. Moreover, the history textbooks that he had read also explained this, so he already had a basic understanding of the Yellow Emperor.
Ling Yun understood very quickly. These were clearly two different worlds. Not to mention the distance between them, it was hard to tell if they were even in the same universe or time and space, let alone a book.
Ling Yun casually took 'The Spiritual Pivot' from the bookshelf.
Just as he was about to glance at it to see what was going on, Ning Lingyu barged into his bedroom.
"Big Brother, there are only two months left before the college entrance examinations. Why aren't you making good use of the time to study? Why are you still holding onto these antiques all day?"
Ning Lingyu could not help but frown as she saw her brother flipping through the medical books that he had obtained from all over the place.
"I'm just interested, so I'm just doing some research …" Ling Yun laughed casually.
Ning Lingyu suddenly looked out of the window and lowered her voice to ask mysteriously, "Big Brother, what's in the wooden box that you brought back yesterday?"
Qin Qiuyue did not allow Ning Lingyu to touch the wooden box, but this undoubtedly aroused Ning Lingyu's curiosity. Ling Yun had changed too much in the past few days!
Looking at Ning Lingyu's secretive look, Ling Yun could not help but raise his hand and lightly touch her delicate nose. "You want to know? Why don't you open it and see for yourself? "
"Ah?! Big Brother, you really want me to see it? " Ning Lingyu was a little surprised. She thought that this was her brother's secret and that her brother definitely did not want her to know. She did not expect Ling Yun to agree so readily without any hesitation.
Ling Yun placed the "Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine – The Spiritual Pivot" gently on the desk. Turning his head, he stared at Ning Lingyu, who had a face full of disbelief, and said, "Big Brother's things are also your things. If you like it, I can give it all to you! "
After saying that, the corner of his mouth curled up into a very relaxed smile.
He said it casually and naturally because that was his own sister!
But Ning Lingyu's heart trembled when she heard it! Looking at the charming smile on Ling Yun's face, she almost used all her strength to suppress her excitement and a trace of indescribable strangeness.
"Big Brother's things are also your things. If you like it, I can give it all to you …"
This sentence only took a moment to echo in Ning Lingyu's mind thousands of times, causing her to be momentarily stunned on the spot.
Ling Yun bent over the bed and picked up the sandalwood box. Then, he showed the open side to Ning Lingyu and said softly, "Open it and see!"
"Lingyu? Lingyu! Open it and see, what are you thinking about? "
"Ah … Ah? Oh, then I really want to see it! " Ning Lingyu finally came back to her senses. Realizing that she was in a daze, she quickly changed the topic.
Ning Lingyu gently lifted the lid of the sandalwood box. "Wow … it's beautiful!" The sandalwood box was not fully opened yet. She exclaimed as she stared at the exquisite emerald green jade box.
At the same time, Ling Yun was also secretly impressed. This was because Ning Lingyu's peerless beauty was illuminated by the green light from the jade box. It made her look even more ethereal and dreamy, like a fairy from the Nine Heavens!
"If one day, Little Sister wears the dresses of the Holy Daughters and Princesses of the various sects in the Cultivation World, how beautiful would she be?"
"I just don't know which bastard my sister, who is like a fairy from the Nine Heavens, will fall for!"
