As the sun dipped to the west, the *Jiang Mansion* was a quiet scene, and everything was normal except for a pig-killing squeal that occasionally came from the specially reserved guest room.
Liang Zhu was quite efficient. In the morning, Ye Anping asked him to find a few blind cultivators for him to conduct clinical trials, and at noon, he had already come back with four blind cultivators.
The condition of these four people's eyes was different from Li Longling's.
Two of them were one-eyed "cyclops" who were blinded during a fight; another one barely managed to save his life with the Shocking pill when the red snow from earlier had drifted into his eyes, and the other was extremely short-sighted...
Ye Anping stayed with these four people all afternoon, doing clinical trials.
Although the first man's left eye was accidentally blown up by him, the next three men's trials went well, and he basically figured out the distribution of the meridians and collaterals around the eyes.
*Squeak*---
The door of the guest room was opened by Ye Anping. He took off his mask and his blood-stained apron and took a deep breath of fresh air.
The four people brought by Liang Zhu also walked out step by step, holding onto the wall.
Ye Anping looked at them apologetically, then took out five bags containing two thousand spirit stones from the storage bag and handed them politely. "Thank you all for cooperating with me today. Although I can't cure your eyes, I helped you unblock the meridians in your body. You can try condensing the energy, it should be smoother now."
The four people looked at each other with wide eyes and tried to mobilize their spiritual energy. They indeed found that the spiritual energy flowed much smoother.
One of them immediately cupped his hands. "Thank you, Young Master Jiang. I didn't have high expectations to heal my eyes. After all, even Miss Li hasn't been cured for so many years, haha... I just came here to earn some spirit stones. Anyway, it's okay, there's still an eye to use."
The other two people didn't say much. They weighed the bags of spirit stones in their hands and looked quite satisfied.
However, the short-sighted man narrowed his eyes and looked at the man with protruding eyeballs who was holding two bags of spirit stones. He asked jealously, "Young Master Jiang, why did you give him two?"
Ye Anping frowned, and his eyes turned cold. "If I pop out your eye, I'll give you twice as much. If I pop out both your eyes, I'll give you four bags. What do you say?"
"..."
"Okay, everyone, you're free to go. If you want to have a meal, that's fine. *Jiang Mansion*'s servants will take care of the food. I have something else to do, so I'll leave now."
Ye Anping nodded in greeting, then went back to his and his sister's bedroom.
The *Jiang Mansion* was pretty quiet now, and most of the servants were already waiting in the dining hall for dinner.
On the way back, Ye Anping leisurely strolled and looked at the corridors and rooms in the mansion, feeling quite nostalgic in his heart.
After all, he and his sister had lived here for several months.
To say there were no feelings would be a lie.
But now, thinking that in a few days, he would set fire to the backyard of *Jiang Mansion*...
It was kinda cool.
---There was a sort of satisfaction born of a desire for destruction and he rarely could openly behave like a naughty brat setting his house on fire.
With a sigh, he turned his thoughts to Li Longling's eyes again.
Just as he thought, he would have to carve the *Shifting Eye* talisman directly onto the meridians, and then Li Longling would have to raise a few birds or pets to serve as her eyes. This was the treatment method he thought of.
At least on the four people just now, his experiment was successful. But just in case, he didn't cure them.
The only thing to do now was to find a time to see Li Longling and perform the "operation".
However, this matter was not urgent. It was better for Li Longling to deal with the affairs of the ***Dragon House*** first. After all, this surgery required several days of recovery.
Ye Anping raised his head to look at the sky, thinking it was also time to stabilize his cultivation.
He had the spiritual roots of water and wood, therefore the place where he could boost his cultivation required sufficient water and wood spiritual energy.
If he remembered correctly, after the ***Dragon House*** incident, a spiritual spring would pop up in the back mountain due to the conflict between the *Red Refined Five Lotus Formation* and the ***Dragon House***'s *Spirit Suppressing Formation*.
That happened to be a spring of wood and water spiritual energy.
"Let's take a dip after sunset."
At this time, he arrived at his bedroom and reached out to open the door.
*Squeak*---
"Sister..."
His voice stopped abruptly as he froze, seeing the situation in the room.
Pei Lianxue was on the ground, doing push-ups with only the little finger of her right hand, while Liang Ating sat cross-legged on her back.
Hearing the door open, the two stared blankly at Ye Anping.
"..."
After they stared at each other for a while, Liang Ating jumped off Pei Lianxue's back and waved. "Uncle! You're back!! Come play chess with me!! I'll definitely beat you this time!!"
"We'll play tomorrow, okay?"
Liang Ating puffed up her cheeks, pulled Ye Anping's clothes, and said, "Tomorrow after tomorrow, there are so many tomorrows. If we wait for tomorrow, nothing will get done!"
Speechless, Ye Anping looked at Liang Ating, grabbed her by the scruff of her neck, carried her out of the bedroom, and then slammed the door shut.
Liang Ating knocked on the door and shouted from the outside. "Uncle!! You are a liar. You only know how to deceive young girls like me. Did you also fool my aunt like this? Auntie is so stupid..."
At this moment, Liang Zhu seemed to have also come.
---"Ating!! Why did you come here again? Didn't I tell you not to play with them?"
---"Ah... father... but you are also very bad at playing chess. It's not fun at all."
---"Hiss---" Liang Zhu took a breath and frowned. "Go back to the house! I've always let you be, but today I'll show you! Let's go!"
...
Listening to the footsteps of the father and daughter walking away, Ye Anping's face darkened, and in his heart, he felt a little fear of such a thing as a child.
He had fantasized about this in the past:
*In the sea of flowers, he and little Xiyue were playing hide-and-seek, while Madam Xiyue was knitting a sweater under an apricot tree, watching with a smile as the father and daughter chased each other.*
Scenes like this.
But now, after meeting Liang Ating, the word "child" seemed to carry a shadow.
Ye Anping pinched the bridge of his nose, walked to Pei Lianxue, and helped her up. "Sister, aren't you tired of Ating bothering you so much?"
"She's not bothering me. Ating is very cute." Pei Lianxue shook her head quickly. She hesitated for a while, then tilted her head, asking, "Brother, I want one."
?
Ye Anping was confused. "Yes? What do you want?"
"...An Ating."
??
Want an Ating?
It took a moment before Ye Anping understood what she meant. He suddenly sucked in a big breath of cold air, turning the area around him into a vacuum.
"Hiss-----"
