"Oh, yes, you probably don't know my true situation, because I'm just a furnace slave..."
Although she was indeed a furnace slave in the past, it could be traced back to her previous life.
Sha Yiyi and Sha Keke lowered their heads slightly, their faces slightly red.
Nangong Mengxiang, who was standing at the side, was somewhat confused.
"Are you two bad guys? Why did you arrest Junior Master?"
"Little, little master..."
Sha Yiyi widened her eyes. Luo Xue is Nangong Mengxiang’s junior uncle
I was just calling him by his last name, why did he recognize me as Junior Master so quickly...
"I just did some wrong things." Luo Xue said, "I don't think you guys like to do bad things, why do you do this?"
Sha Yiyi and Sha Keke looked at each other. Sha Yiyi hesitated for a while, sighed, and told Luo Xue all about her and Sha Keke's troubles.
The inn's business was too bleak, and they could hardly afford the "protection fee" from the medicine gang.
If there was no inn, there would be no place to stay in Ghost Pass.
Luo Xue pondered for a moment and roughly understood the difficulties faced by the twin sisters.
She thought for a while and said,
"Besides doing this kind of commission, what else can you do?"
"I can cook." Sha Keke said seriously.
Sha Yiyi patted her sister's head. She understood Luo Xue's intention and said,
"Intelligence gathering, tracking and reconnaissance, searching for people and objects - of course, the scope of the search can only be limited to the Ghost Demon Pass, and we can't go out."
"I didn't expect you guys are so talented." Luo Xue raised her eyebrows and picked up the water at hand.
"Miss Luo Xue, you're joking," Sha Yiyi shook her head, looking bitter, "If we didn't have some special skills, we two sisters wouldn't have been able to stay in this demon pass for fifty years..."
"puff!"
Luo Xue spat out a mouthful of water, wetting the faces of Sha Yiyi and Sha Keke in front of her.
"Fifty years?" Luo Xue said with her eyes wide open, "How old are you?"
"This year... I'm sixty-two."
Sha Yiyi was scolded all over, but she still answered honestly, "We were brought here by our parents when we were twelve years old.
"My father was a traitor to Changchun Pavilion, and my mother fled with him... but they are both dead now."
Changchun Pavilion is one of the nine major sects along with Juexiao Sect. Its skills are characterized by being long and lasting. The lifespan of the monks in the sect is about two to three times that of ordinary monks, but their combat power is much weaker than that of the same geniuses.
However, if quality doesn’t improve, quantity can make up for it.
Changchun Pavilion has the most Nascent Souls among the nine major sects.
... However, they were so weak that Luo Huaxin could come and go at will, and even snatched the Qiduxianren Koushou away.
This also explains why the two sisters, even though they are over 60 years old, still look like young girls in their twenties.
But for Luo Xue...
Sixty-two years old. In her previous life, her grandmother would have been in her sixties...
After calming down from the shock in her heart, Luo Xue calmed down and said,
"Well, I do have something that I can use you for, but I have one condition."
"What conditions?"
Sha Yiyi looked a little nervous.
Luo Xue narrowed her eyes slightly.
"You... can only do things for me."
Chapter 88: Good Quality and Affordable Luo Xue
After knowing that the twin sisters actually had this kind of side job, Luo Xue became interested.
Her energy is limited, and she can't do many things by herself.
Luo Xue had never done anything like gathering intelligence before, so it would be better to leave it to professionals.
... Although they may not be very professional, they are definitely more professional than Luo Xue.
After Sha Yiyi heard Luo Xue's words, she showed a slightly embarrassed expression, and then seemed to have thought of something, her eyes gradually brightened.
"you mean... "
"Well, I'll take care of whatever you're worried about."
Luo Xue searched the ring with her consciousness, and finally took out a small bottle of the immortal kowtow that her step-mother gave her.
"You should recognize this thing. If you sell it, it should be enough."
Sha Yiyi took Luo Xue's jade bottle with doubts. After opening it, her nose twitched slightly, revealing a shocked expression.
"How did you get this? And there are so many..."
The Immortal's Kowtow is the treasure of Changchun Pavilion. It is the juice contained in an extremely rare immortal herb.
This magical herb looks like a cactus. It takes a thousand years to mature and will quickly wither after laying seeds.
Most of the juice will be supplied to the seeds as nutrients, but the small amount of juice left in the withered mother body is highly poisonous, which is the origin of the name "Immortal Kowtow".
It is collected once every thousand years, and each plant can only fill about half a jade bottle.
Sha Yiyi already has two plants in her hand, the value of which is enough to support ten of her, no, maybe even more!
At this moment, Sha Yiyi and Sha Keke looked at Luo Xue as if they were looking at a vault.
"Ahem, in Juexiao Sect..."
Luo Xue touched her nose. She didn’t know if this was a lot or not. Anyway, her stepmother had snatched a gourd from her.
"The deal between Changchun Pavilion and Juexiao Sect?" Sha Yiyi understood immediately, but was still a little confused. "No wonder, but why does Juexiao Sect need this poison? Without Changchun Pavilion's skills, there is no way to make this poison into medicine."
"Can't poison be used to kill people?" Luo Xue asked curiously.
After hearing this, Sha Yiyi wanted to show an expression of looking at a fool, but when she thought that the other party was her financial sponsor, she held back and patiently explained,
“How could someone use the Immortal’s kowtow to poison someone? As a poison, it is only the ninth strange poison, which is not surprising.
"But as a medicine, it is an extremely rare and precious top-grade medicinal material. It is also one of the most important raw materials for several elixirs used in breaking through the Nascent Soul stage."
"Is it poison or medicine..." Luo Xue pondered for a moment and said, "Then is this bottle of Immortal Kowtow enough to make you work for me alone?"
Sha Yiyi and Sha Keke looked at each other and said with a wry smile, "Miss Luo Xue, you are joking. From now on, the two of us sisters will only serve you."
Luo Xue nodded. This was the answer she wanted.
"It just so happens that the Guimoguan auction held every few years will be held in a few days. This time it is the Tianhai Gang's turn to host it. We can auction the Immortal Kowtow."
Sha Yiyi immediately made a plan, "The Medicine Gang will definitely be very interested in this, but the Tianhai Gang won't be able to use it. This way, we don't have to worry about the auction items being embezzled."
"There's also an auction. Forget it. I won't go. There's nothing I want to buy."
Although it might seem a bit satisfying to hide one's identity and bid higher at the auction, Luo Xue really had no interest in it.
"Are you still going to Youxiang Restaurant..."
Nangong Mengxiang, who had been silent the whole time, raised her hand and asked weakly.
Sha Yiyi showed an apologetic expression and was about to shake her head to answer, but was stopped by Luo Xue.
"Go, why not?" Luo Xue's eyes flashed with a bit of sharpness, "I want to see who wants to arrest me..."
At this point, Luo Xue suddenly remembered something and turned around and asked,
"By the way, how much is the commission for arresting me?"
Hearing this, Sha Yiyi showed an embarrassed expression and held up two fingers.
"Two Yellow-grade Qi Condensation Pills..."
"Huh?" Luo Xue's eyes widened, "I'm so cheap?"
"It was originally five coins, but my sister wanted to promote the product as being of good quality and low price, so she bargained for it herself."
Sha Keke stabbed him again without mercy.
At this moment, Sha Yiyi just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. Doesn’t this sister know how to read her mood
This is our future big money sponsor! The little rich woman who will support us!
After hearing this, Luo Xue was certain that it was basically impossible that they were coming for her identity as a member of the Juexiao Sect.
Even if the disciples of Juexiao Sect are menial disciples, they shouldn't be treated so cheaply...
That’s not right. Why did you suddenly start calculating this
Luo Xue rubbed her temple and said,
"When we get to Youxiang Restaurant, you guys should follow the original plan first, and then make some small changes..."
Luo Xue looked at Nangong Mengxiang who was bored beside her and smiled slightly.
"Give them a little Nangong Mengxiang shock!"
Hearing this, Nangong Mengxiang blinked and a question mark popped up in her mind.
What, what are you talking about? Why are you talking about me again
... ... .
The people coming and going are all living beings.
Everything comes back to one's heart, no matter good or evil, one should stay alone in the world and keep silent.
This is Wuyan Temple’s way of dealing with the world.
The Blind Wizard walked with his eyes closed among the endless stream of people, but no one could detect his presence.
He walked slowly until it started to rain heavily. Most of the monks around him had already used water-avoiding spells, but he still walked, letting the rain soak his whole body.
Suddenly, a thought came to his mind. The Blind Master stopped and looked in a certain direction.
"It seems that the irreversible fate has already begun, but she still did not listen to the advice."
He looked away and sighed softly.
"When the final result appears," the Eyeless Mage whispered softly, "it will be too late for you to regret."
The disciples of Wuyan Temple observe all things in the world and never touch a fate that does not belong to them.
But the Blind Master is an exception. He is still alive in the world, trying to save something.
But he never succeeded in changing anything.
The Mage Wumu raised his head and looked at a building next to him. On it were four large characters clearly written:
— "Youxiang Restaurant"
"The demons of the Demon City want to continue their past karma, but this should not happen." Master Wumu shook his head, "Let me make the decision for you, take away this karma, and end the mistake that should not have happened."
The Blind Mage continued walking, but he did not walk towards the Youxiang Restaurant. Instead, he turned around and went to a magnificent building next to the Youxiang Restaurant.
On the gate of this building hangs a plaque carved from a whole piece of spiritual stone.
—“Tianhai Auction House”.
The place where a large auction will be held in a few days.
... ...
Youxiang Restaurant can be said to be the place with the highest consumption level in the entire Guimo Pass.
Just one dish could consume the life savings of an ordinary spiritual cultivator.
Of course, the dishes in Youxiang Restaurant are not ordinary dishes. They are all extremely precious natural treasures. There are even some unknown secret beasts, which are said to come from the forbidden ancient demon land.
Only the geniuses from powerful forces or the high-ranking officials of the three major gangs can afford the consumption of Youxiang Restaurant.
Rumor has it that the owner behind the Youxiang Restaurant is the former Saint of the Yinling Temple - of course, this is just a rumor and has not been confirmed.
