Yuan Rongrong also knew the Shen family, and they even had close contacts. However, when she told her own father about this, he never believed it, or rather, he didn't take it to heart at all. He just thought that she was young and overthinking, and there was nothing he could say about it.
Besides, they have already discussed it to this extent with Diemeng, so those trivial details are even less important.
The little girl had nothing to say to them, so she turned around and talked to Sister Shen.
Shen Luofei has been the head of the family for a long time. Her eldest daughter is already three years old. Her name is Shen Jingru. She is one of the youngest heavenly-level alchemists in the history of the spirit world. She is extremely talented and now has a lot of say in the family.
After hearing Yuan Rongrong's words, he raised his eyebrows and became interested: "So, this elixir is related to the Lin family?"
"I remember the appearance of the cuffs," Yuan Rongrong said, "but the strange thing is that Lin Qingshuang really looks like she knows nothing."
Shen Jingru also looked at Lin Qingshuang following this conversation. She felt very complicated about this cousin who suddenly rebelled.
She had also seen Aunt Luoying when she was young. She was gentle and generous, and naturally beautiful. It was a pity that she met the wrong person. She still misses her very much until now.
At first, when I heard that Lin Qingshuang was coming, I was very happy. After all, she was Aunt Luoying's daughter. People said that she was smart, beautiful, and a favored child of heaven. Everyone who saw her liked her. But when I met her in person, I always felt that something was not quite right.
The attitudes of Shen Sheng and Shen Luofei were somewhat lukewarm, and many of the arguments prepared by Lin Qingshuang were of no use to them.
But Shen Luofei's current wife, who was her aunt in terms of status, had a good relationship with her and they were chatting and laughing.
The current mistress of the Shen family is Shen Luofei's second wife, and was born in the Zhu family. In recent years, the Zhu family has tended to favor the Suye Fairy Mountain. Naturally, she and Lin Qingshuang hit it off at first sight, at least on the surface.
To be honest, she was not a proper mistress. After Shen Luofei's original wife died unexpectedly, she became a concubine with a high status. Later, she was in charge of the affairs of the inner house at home. Shen Luofei did not remarry, so she had always occupied this position.
However, Shen Jingru, who inherited the talent of an alchemist, and Shen Jingxun, who inherited the talent of a combat spiritualist from the original wife, were not from the Zhu family, and they were never close.
It's not that Shen Jingru looked down on her stepmother. They treated each other with respect on weekdays, but Zhu was indeed much more cautious.
During the time she was in the Shen family, she had certainly secured a lot of benefits for her mother's family. In the past, when the Shen family had spare time and didn't care, she turned a blind eye. However, in order to share the 2% share proposed by Yu Yinyin, the Shen family would inevitably have to make choices. Those originally vague gray areas would naturally be cut off, and the Zhu family would be affected.
The Mrs. Shen in front of her actually didn't want Shen Luoying to wake up, and was dissatisfied with the conditions proposed by Die Meng.
Originally, the 2% share and the quota for alchemy could be discussed, but once Shen Luoying was involved, the matter was no longer discussed, and she was naturally unhappy.
Shen Jingru had been with her for a long time and knew what she was thinking at a glance, so she didn't bother to say that she was short-sighted.
Even if we don't mention Shen Luoying, the Shen family will account for the lion's share of the large supply of special medicine base and Diemeng's exclusive elixir. After all, it is more than what Fuxin Miaofa paid, so this deal is not a loss at all.
Is Lin Qingshuang really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? She has such a close relationship with Zhu, how could she not know what's in her heart
Is she brainless, or does she simply not have feelings for Shen Luoying
Just then, Yuan Rongrong turned around and whispered to her again, mentioning the incident when Zhang Fu took out the poisonous thread that day.
Apparently there is something else going on in Shen Luoying's case, and Die Meng seems to know something.
"I just found out now that there is such a method," Yuan Rongrong continued, "Shen Luoying was poisoned during her pregnancy. They said she tried her best to protect the fetus, so Lin Qingshuang was fine. But it's also strange that not a single trace of poison was extracted from Lin Qingshuang's body. Otherwise, why would the Shen family wait until now to find out what poisoned her? Is she so lucky? She was pregnant for such a long time, and the poison disappeared as soon as it was removed from her body."
Shen Jingru frowned, thought for a while, and said to Yuan Rongrong: "Don't say this to others for the time being."
But that poisonous thread caused a lot of speculation. What Yuan Rongrong could think of, many people in the Shen family could also think of.
Therefore, in recent times, Lin Qingshuang has been encountering setbacks everywhere with the Shen family. Although they treat her well on the surface, they are somewhat scrutinized by her. She has been living a depressed life. Only Zhu can talk to her for a few words and even tell her a piece of news a few days later.
The medicine to save Shen Luoying is in the hands of Qingkongruxuediemeng, the corresponding person of Gui Fu Teng. Shen Sheng has already seen it and there is no problem with it.
The Shen family has already found the antidote for Coniferous Green, the Heart of Sunflower. They have a good relationship with the Shen family, so after the price was agreed upon, they readily agreed to provide it, and it will be delivered soon.
The antidote for Powder White Snow is called the Exiled Immortal Flower. The Shen family asked all their connections to look for it and discovered that the flower was actually very close at hand, in the hands of a medicinal material collector in Wanhua Ridge.
However, this person has a strange temper and is difficult to deal with. The Shen family, Fuxin Miaofa and Bailu Zongheng have visited him several times, but to no avail.
Zhu said to her, "Qingshuang, go and give it a try. If you can get this thing back, Suye Xianshan will have bargaining chips, and it will be easier to negotiate with the Shen family."
However, Zhu did not tell her that this collector was stubborn and had a bad temper. He was very annoying and only interested in refining medicine. He had been in Wanhua Ridge for so many years and had studied the Shen family's special medicine essence thoroughly. He was no longer interested in it, so the Shen family would not give him face when they went to find him.
Now that the three mountains were going in turn, judging from this person's temper, she would only become more annoyed, and might even just run away, which was exactly what she wanted.
Lin Qingshuang didn't know this. After she received the news, she hurriedly took people to visit him for several days, but the other party avoided her.
Everyone thought that this matter would take a lot of time, but not long after, the collector said that he had already made a deal with someone and was ready to give the medicine away if nothing unexpected happened.
The petaled flowers of the Exiled Immortal have special habits. They are kept as living creatures there. To pick them, one has to wait for a special time of the month. After picking them, one has to wait for a while until the protective qi of the flowers dissipates before they can be used as medicine.
He kept silent about who he was going to give it to, only saying that he had already promised the other party and would not go back on his word.
But Lin Qingshuang had a backup plan.
Among the people she brought to Suye Fairy Mountain, there was one with special abilities and first-rate stealth. That collector hated being watched by others, and people from the three mountains didn't dare to disturb him nearby. Only she had successfully planted people there, and all the people who had appeared in the past few days were being targeted.
As soon as the news leaked over there, it became very lively, and many people tried to share the worries for the Shen family. There were indeed a lot of people around, and after she eliminated them one by one during this period of time, only a few possible ones were left.
He is an alchemist who looks young. Every time he goes to the collector's residence, he moves very carefully and covers himself tightly. Moreover, he has the effect of a spiritual weapon on him, so he often disappears when he is distracted.
He must have reached some kind of agreement with the collector. It was not a one-time deal. He had to go there every once in a while, and then he was caught by Lin Qingshuang.
She had confirmed that it was not anyone from the Three Mountains. Since it was an alchemist with no martial arts ability and a lone man, it would be easy to deal with.
No matter who took this thing, she would snatch it from Su Ye Xian Mountain.
That day, Lin Qingshuang heard from her subordinates that the man had appeared again, and today was the time to pick the petals of the exiled fairy flower.
This guy was quite smart. He used a spiritual weapon and immediately appeared at a farther place. However, he was still caught by Lin Qingshuang who had been planning for a long time.
Seeing that the man was heading towards the Shen family, she felt that he was some young alchemist who had gotten lucky and won the favor of the eccentric collector, and was about to go to the Shen family to curry favor.
If we let this guy get away with it, what will be the future of Su Ye Xian Mountain
It seems that the Exiled Immortal Flower was put into the spiritual storage device by them. It doesn’t matter, just kill it.
He is just an alchemist who is not strong enough to even tie a chicken. Lin Qingshuang doesn't need anyone else. She can go there herself, which is safer and more secure.
When the man walked into an empty alley, she immediately followed him. She seized the opportunity and a crescent-shaped blade appeared in her hands. She slashed at him decisively. The man seemed to be unprepared and fell to the ground with a muffled groan.
But at the same time, a semi-transparent barrier appeared on this person's body. It looked like a good protective spiritual weapon, which covered the person immediately.
Lin Qingshuang frowned, thinking that this might be troublesome, and moved even more ruthlessly and quickly.
Although they were protected by spiritual tools, the alchemists were weak and could not withstand the shock of the spiritual energy that collided with them. The smaller one spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Hand over your stuff, and I can spare your lives."
That person still didn't speak.
Then don't blame her.
After being slashed by Lin Qingshuang a few times, the protective spiritual weapon could no longer hold and began to crack. When Lin Qingshuang's double blades were about to fall, they were blocked by someone.
Lin Qingshuang frowned and raised her eyes, only to see a familiar face in front of her. She was shocked by the force and couldn't help but take a few steps back.
Cold autumn moon.
She is a direct disciple of Suye Xianshan and the legitimate young master of the Lin family. Leng Qiuyue would not be too cruel to her, otherwise it would be troublesome. However, she still managed to make her spiritual energy backfire and feel uncomfortable.
"If you want to kill the alchemist, it depends on whether I, Fuxin Miaofa, agree or not?"
Leng Qiuyue had felt that Lin Su was acting suspiciously in Yexian Mountain since early in the morning, and she would stare at Lin Qingshuang whenever she made a move. Although this woman was young, her hands were very vicious, and she was willing to hurt people directly, which was really cruel.
She also knew that the person who caught the collector's attention must be an alchemist. Although she didn't know why he had this ability, he must have an extraordinary talent. Although the Exiled Immortal Flower was precious, she wanted this person as well.
I came out at this time on purpose, hoping to save someone.
Although Qiuyue had done a lot of murder and robbery, for example, he had tried to steal Fu Qingping's resources, but this was the rule among their combat spiritualists, the stronger one had the final say. Generally speaking, combat spiritualists would never attack alchemists.
To attack the alchemist who has no ability to resist, the spirit world has resorted to any means necessary to a certain extent.
"We are all very scared."
Leng Qiuyue knew that the people brought by Lin Qingshuang were no match for her, so she turned around and smiled at the young alchemist with a very kind tone.
It was getting dark, and the man was wearing a black hood, so I couldn't see his face clearly. She continued, "I am Leng Qiuyue, the mountain master of Fuxin Miaofa. I know that the petal of the exiled immortal is in your hands. This matter is very important. You have no background and are young. I am afraid you don't know how to negotiate this deal with the Shen family. Why don't you let me help you?"
The alchemist seemed to have his blood boiling because of the battle. He didn't reply and just coughed a few times.
The tall one seemed to be protecting the shorter one all the time, and finally helped the shorter one to stand up. He was silent for a long while, as if he was thinking.
Lin Qingshuang, who was standing at the back, saw that she could not get it, so she gritted her teeth, as if she had thought of something, and turned around and left.
Leng Qiuyue didn't care if she ran away, she was just a little girl and the person in front of her was the focus. But Leng Qiuyue didn't expect that before she could say a few words, Lin Qingshuang came back with a group of people, and the leader was Shen Sheng.
"Grandpa, it's right there!" She deliberately messed up her clothes and hair, showing that she was in a mess, and there were even traces of tears on her face. "Master Lengshan and that guy have ulterior motives towards the Shen family. They want to use the exiled fairy petal flower to blackmail the Shen family. I tried to stop them, but was injured by Master Lengshan. Come and look at them..."
Lin Qingshuang knew very well that if her glazed two-handed blade did not hit anyone, it would leave no marks.
She and Leng Qiuyue each held their own opinions. That person was originally a strange alchemist, and it was useless to talk to him. She would go to the Shen family to complain first, and Shen Sheng might naturally side with her.
She had failed in her attack and had already lost the initiative. She couldn't let Fu Xin's magic succeed.
Leng Qiuyue probably didn't expect that she could do this. She was stunned for a moment, then laughed out of anger when she came to her senses. However, it would seem guilty if she attacked Lin Qingshang at this time. This alchemist also seemed to be frightened and didn't say a word. Shen Sheng frowned. It was indeed difficult to judge what was going on.
However, after Lin Qingshuang had exaggerated and completely cleared herself of the issue, one of the unlucky little alchemists finally spoke. His voice was a little hoarse due to injury.
"Lin Qingshuang, you are just like before, lying and accusing others again. That's why I don't like playing with you since we were little."
Lin Qingshuang was stunned when she heard the voice. She saw the little man take off his hood, revealing a familiar face.
Lin Yun
"Why are you here?" Lin Qingshuang never expected to see this face, "Why didn't you tell me you took that thing, you..."
She reacted quickly and immediately turned to explain to Shen Sheng: "Grandpa, don't believe him. Lin Yun has been at odds with me since childhood. But the Lin family is cunning and even ran away from home. I think he did it on purpose, or he has been planning it for a long time. They..."
This happened so quickly that Leng Qiuyue could not recognize Lin Yunshuang's face, nor did she realize who this person was. But before Lin Qingshuang could finish speaking, another person lifted his hood and she recognized him.
This face is even more surprising than Lin Yun’s.
The lost child of the Shen family might have been destined to look like someone from the Shen family. Very much like him. Li Yan was skinny, but after Diemeng cultivated his talent and body, he looked exactly like Shen Luofei when she was young. It was impossible to mistake him just by looking at his face. Otherwise, Chen Banyu would not have recognized him at first glance.
"We didn't intend to blackmail the Shen family, and it wasn't Master Lengshan who hurt us. We were trying to kill people and rob but were stopped, and we are the first to complain and then blame them," Li Yan put his hand on Lin Yun's shoulder and tightened it, "We were going to the Shen family anyway."
