Everyone was locked in their respective rooms, still tied up with the ropes.
Jiang Niannian sat in the bed, looking around.
The room is simply furnished, yet gorgeous.
The room is round and the walls are covered with green vines.
The benches and the floor were covered with precious animal skins, as soft to the touch as the most expensive carpets.
It seems that Ye Linyuan is quite particular.
However, what Jiang Niannian didn't know was that, except for her and Tang Murou's room, all the other cultivators were locked in a room that looked more like a cell than a room.
There was a spider web between the railings that was probably several decades old. The room was long and narrow, and often shrouded in darkness. There were few furnishings in the room, just a bed and an old wooden cabinet.
As she looked at it, she walked to a wall as if possessed and stepped on the green ivy.
"How dare you, foolish mortal, step on this herb! If you step on my head today, I will grow on your grave tomorrow!"
Jiang Niannian was startled by the sudden angry child's voice. She lowered her head and glanced at the big ivy in front of her. After a moment of silence, she shouted, "Cao Cao, if I call you, will you answer me?"
"Fuck! How can a mortal hear the grass talking!"
Jiang Niannian looked at it and smiled: "Why not?"
"You, woman, are really strange." As he said that, a green boy walked out from the vines and looked at her carefully.
Jiang Niannian also looked at him favorably.
"You are looking at Ben Cao Cao like that, are you coveting my beauty? Your lustful eyes make me uncomfortable, but for some reason, I always feel that there is a kind of familiar smell on you, a bit like Ben Cao Cao's mother."
Jiang Niannian: “…” This level of narcissism is consistent with Ye Linyuan.
The boy circled her around three times, looked left and right, then stopped in front of her with his hands on his hips.
Jiang Niannian: "May I ask what is the name of this green kid?"
"You are the kid, your whole family is kids." The boy mocked angrily, and then said, "There is a Yuanqiu Mountain, on which there is an immortal tree. Eating it will make you live longer. There is also a red spring, drinking it will make you immortal. The herb is a branch of the Kunlun immortal tree that fell into the demon world. What do you think? I am shocked, right? I even gave myself a resounding name - Teng Jiao!"
Jiang Niannian burst out laughing.
Tell me, how much did the Sichuan pepper instant noodles cost you? Our Laotan pickled cabbage, no, our fresh shrimp and fish flat noodles cost ten times as much!
Teng Jiao glared at her: "Woman! Did you hear that?"
"Okay, green little friend."
Teng Jiao: “…”
"Do you want to make a pact with me?"
Jiang Niannian was puzzled: "Contract?"
Teng Jiao narrowed his eyes, sat on the bench, crossed his legs, picked his feet and said profoundly: "That's right, Ye Linyuan, that bastard, used the evil magic of the demon clan to trap the herb here for many years and absorbed my power, which is why he has an immortal body."
"I've had enough of this kind of life! Only by forming a bond with someone can I escape from here. Because you are so special, Bencao will give you a chance to form a bond. However, you must pass my test first... You want to form a bond, right?"
