Huang Li took off her medical gloves and looked directly at me: "I wonder if you have become stronger in that regard?"
I naturally knew what she was referring to: "Maybe."
Huang Li's body leaned towards me: "You'll have to try it before you know."
I have been trapped in the mountains for several days, and I may not have touched a woman for a long time: "Let me borrow your bathroom, I will take a bath first."
She raised the corners of her lips slightly: "Then hurry up!"
I lifted Huang Li's waist, then turned and walked into the bathroom at her home.
As soon as I took off my clothes, Huang Li stood outside the bathroom and knocked and asked, "I have you brought a bathrobe."
I opened the bathroom door and Huang Li stood at the door with a dark blue bathrobe in her hand.
"I bought it based on your height. I don't know if it will fit." Huang Li said and handed me the bathrobe.
"You should be able to wear it!" I reached out and took it.
Huang Li’s eyes were still on me, and she glanced up and down. This kind of look often appears on men, but I didn’t expect that Huang Li also had it.
After closing the door, I stood under the shower, with the warm water washing over my body.
I can feel the slight tightening of my muscles when the water touches my skin. The body reflected in the mirror seems to be stronger than in memory, and the muscle lines are also a little clearer.
"If I continue like this, I won't turn into a monster, right?"
After a while, when I wiped my hair and walked out of the bathroom, there was only a warm yellow wall lamp left in the living room.
Huang Li had already changed into her nightgown and was lying on her side on the sofa. She held two glasses of red wine in her hand and handed one of them to me.
"Want some wine to cheer you up?" Her eyes looked particularly hazy under the warm light.
As soon as I took the wine glass, she took the initiative to touch it. We fell on the sofa, and her kiss carried the mellow aroma of red wine and an eagerness that could not be refused.
I could clearly feel her accelerated heartbeat, and my own pulse also responded at an alarming speed.
At this moment, I noticed a strange light flashing in her eyes.
It was not lust, but more like the excitement of the researcher when he discovered a precious sample.
Now I can only cooperate with her to continue the research, who made me take that damn Dali Pill.
I also ate the weird Cynomorium cynomorium alive. The woman in front of me who is obsessed with medicinal herbs may be my only key to unlocking the mystery of body changes.
Huang Li opened the ties of my nightgown: "When I get the tiger bones and make Longhu Pills, I promise to make you stronger."
I put my arms around her waist: "It's not good to be too strong."
"Don't say what you mean, you men are willing to spend any money to become stronger in that area!" Huang Li pressed her hand on my chest.
I think so too. Nowadays, the rejuvenating and strengthening soup in drug stores has very little effect and is sold out of stock.
"When the side effects on my body are resolved, I want to stop here." I don't want to continue this crazy experiment.
"It's all up to you," Huang Li didn't refute, she just put the wine glass on the coffee table, and the neckline of her nightgown drooped slightly when she leaned over.
"But you have to think clearly, the effectiveness of the Cynomorium Cynomorium is still in your body, and it's time to collect data now."
"At least until it is confirmed that your body is fully adapted to the current state."
I looked at her eyes so close, there were too many things hidden there that I couldn't see through. Maybe she was right, it was indeed too early to withdraw now.
I spent nearly two hours with Huang Li in her living room, and my abilities in some aspects have indeed improved a lot.
After Huang Li got the required data, she stood up holding her notebook: "I have a lot of data to analyze, so I won't leave you alone."
I smiled helplessly: "If you find anything, remember to let me know."
I put on my own clothes and left Huang Li's residence, the night wind blowing in my face.
I have a difficult question in my mind: Where should I get tiger bones? That thing is a prohibited contraband.
While I was thinking about it, my phone vibrated in my pocket. I took it out and saw that it was Lin Xiaoyu calling.
"Would you like to come back for dinner in the evening? There are a lot of souvenirs brought from home."
I originally planned to go to the site to have a look, but Lin Xiaoyu took the initiative to say: "I'll be back in a moment, do you need me to bring anything?"
"Xiaoqing can't drink, please bring some drinks back."
Lin Xiaoqing complained from the other end of the phone: "Sister, I'm already in college, I can drink some wine!"
I responded to the phone, "I'll buy the drinks, do you want to bring some snacks?"
"Whatever." Lin Xiaoyu hung up the phone after saying that.
I put the tiger bone issue aside for the time being and walked towards the convenience store on the corner.
After a while, carrying drinks and snacks, I just pushed open the door of the rental house and heard a familiar laughter.
In the living room, Su Yan was chatting with Lin Xiaoqing. It seemed that she had just returned from get off work.
Su Yan raised her eyes and saw me, and immediately teased: "Do you still want to come back? I thought you ran away with some rich woman."
She was referring to the fact that I lost contact with me when I went to the mountains a few days ago.
There was no signal on the phone during that time. When I came back, I found that Su Yan had sent me several messages. From the initial chat to the worry later, the last one read: "If you don't reply, I will call the police!" It's a good thing that I can still be here?"
Lin Xiaoyu took the shopping bag in my hand and said softly: "Wash your hands and get ready to eat."
Su Yan came over and flipped through the snacks, picked out a bag of potato chips and opened it: "Let me know in advance next time you go into the mountains, so that no one will worry." She winked at Lin Xiaoyu.
"I know." I responded simply, and I couldn't talk too deeply with Su Yan.
Lin Xiaoqing sipped orange juice: "Brother-in-law, take me into the mountains to collect herbs next time."
“Who is your brother-in-law! He and I are not married yet.” Lin Xiaoyu patted the back of her sister’s head.
"Isn't that a matter of time?" Lin Xiaoqing didn't know that Lin Xiaoyu and I had broken up.
Lin Xiaoyu turned around and walked into the kitchen, bringing out the last dish, which was a bowl of bacon stewed with dried beans. The small dining table was immediately filled to the brim.
Lin Xiaoyu took off her apron and pointed at the table, "Sausage, smoked fish, dried bamboo shoots... I wish I could bring the whole family here."
Lin Xiaoqing could not wait to pick up the pieces. Picking up a piece of smoked fish: "Sister, you don't even know that when mom was loading the luggage, she even wanted to stuff a jar of fermented bean curd into it."
Su Yan got closer and sniffed: "It smells so good. It looks like this bacon is smoked by ourselves."
She turned to look at me, "Did you go into the mountains just to get some local specialties?"
"It would be great if you could get these." I served the rice with a smile, and glanced at the local dishes on the table.
Lin Xiaoqing was still chewing her food when she suddenly raised her head and asked me: "Brother-in-law, how is the business of your drugstore? What do you sell?"
Lin Xiaoyu touched her sister's arm: Don't talk too much while eating. "
"I'm just curious." Lin Xiaoqing stuck out her tongue and picked up another chopstick of dried bamboo shoots.
I thought about my words: "It mainly deals in traditional Chinese medicine pieces and common tonics. Recently, the business has been pretty good."
