Huang Daochang touched his chin, frowned, and said thoughtfully: "I saw it in an ancient book. In addition to some ordinary medicinal herbs, there is also a kind of spiritual aquatic plant that grows in the deep sea. That kind of aquatic plant is extremely difficult to find hundreds of meters underground in the deep sea!"
"No matter where it is, we will search for it. Please tell us the location, senior." Ye Xingtong made an identification with a certain light, lowered his head and said in a deep voice.
There was a hint of interest in Huang Daochang's eyes, he looked at Ye Xingtong and teased: "You seem to care about that demon very much?"
Hearing this, Wu Ye stiffened slightly and looked towards Ye Xingtong.
Ye Xingtong lowered his head slightly, his face turned slightly red, and he defended shamelessly: "No way, I just treat Wu Ye as my younger brother. Shouldn't I help my younger brother when he is in trouble? Even if he is a stranger There’s no reason why people shouldn’t just ignore it, right?”
Huang Daozhang pondered: "It is very dangerous to go to the deep sea. There are thousands of sharks, poisonous snakes, crocodiles, and other dangerous things there. They may lose their lives at any time just to allow this monster to restore its previous cultivation." I want to give you a warning first, so as not to hit you later. It’s possible that the elixir may not be effective even if it’s well practiced. Do you think it’s worth it?”
"..." Ye Xingtong fell silent, she had to think about it carefully.
Why did she want to sacrifice her life for Wu Ye? Is it easy for her to be reborn? Is it worth dying just for an insignificant demon
Shaking his head, he replied honestly: "It's not worth it!"
The light in Wu Ye's eyes dimmed. They had nothing to do with each other in the first place. All mortals were greedy for profit and would sacrifice the people closest to them for some petty gains. How could he expect that Ye Xingtong would even sacrifice her life for him.
Then Ye Xingtong continued after a pause: "But if you don't give it a try, how do you know it's impossible? Everything is possible. So even for this possibility, I want to give it a try."
Wu Ye's eyes lit up, he opened his mouth slightly, and looked at Ye Xingtong in disbelief, as if he didn't expect that she would say such affectionate words.
Ye Xingtong smiled at him and blinked.
Wu Ye blushed, from the roots of his ears to his face, and turned his head away from looking at her.
Huang Daochang laughed and said: "You are so respectable! Little girl, being able to say such bold words is enough to show your courage and courage. It really opened my eyes!"
Lao Huang? Why does it sound so awkward
The corner of Ye Xingtong's mouth twitched. Her rebirth gave her an additional ability to read people, and she could guess the person's personality and thoughts from the smallest details.
If her guess was correct, Huang Daozhang had no intention of letting her go to the deep sea at all. She did not ignore Huang Daozhang's flash of joking. It was just to give her a try. How could she let him down
"Actually, little girl, you don't have to go." Huang Daochang coughed before saying slowly.
"Why? Didn't you say that you must get that kind of spiritual grass? It's necessary for alchemy?" Ye Xingtong asked innocently, blinking a pair of innocent big eyes.
"Actually, I lied to you." Huang Daochang coughed in embarrassment.
"Ah?" Ye Xingtong looked at Huang Daozhang.
"Actually, I have that kind of herbal medicine. I came to the East China Sea by chance one time and picked that magical herb by chance." After a long while, in silence, Huang Daochang finally revealed the truth.
"Really?" Ye Xingtong asked with a smile and a gentle voice.
"That's right, cough."
"Then you didn't tell me earlier!" A voice echoed through the sky and exploded all around.
Huang Daozhang felt his ears were "buzzing" and couldn't help but cover his ears and complained: "Didn't I tell you this?"
"Huang Daochang, are you itchy all over your body?" Ye Xingtong crossed his arms and looked at Huang Daochang with a half-smile.
"Not itchy, not itchy, very good, very good!" Huang Daochang winced.
This girl's eyes are so evil.
Ye Xingtong casually picked up the broom beside him, gritted his teeth and said, "Since you are itchy, let me use the broom to serve you!"
"Ah! Killed someone..."
After a moment of excitement, the two of them sat on either side of the table, panting heavily. They stared at each other, their hair was messy and their clothes were messy.
"Okay, little girl, I can't beat you, don't you have one more thing to ask of me?" Huang Daochang poured a cup of tea and drank it, relaxing his breath slightly.
Ye Xingtong took a breath, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "Okay, if you can do what I said, I will let you go. I want you to kill the evil ghost who disturbed the peace of Poyang County." Lose!"
With a "bang", the porcelain cup fell to the ground. Huang Daochang twisted his eyebrows: "Little girl, you are too strong to make things difficult for others."
That's no ordinary ghost! Didn't he go up there to seek death? Besides, he didn't care about that kind of shabby reputation.
Acting as he pleases is his ultimate destiny.
"I don't care. You promised me, and you must keep your promises." Ye Xingtong reached out and stroked his bun, secretly scolding Daochang Huang.
Huang Daochang sighed helplessly: "Little girl, it's not that I don't agree with you. It's actually that I only have two strengths. One is refining medicine and the other is making talismans. I only know a little bit about the others. You ask me to destroy that one." Female ghost, didn’t you want me to push you towards death?”
"Then you let me play with you for so long just to tease me? Do you believe that I will beat you?" Ye Xingtong picked up the broom again.
Huang Daochang hurriedly stretched out his hand to resist: "Hey, don't, don't, I'm really not proficient in magic. If I could defeat that evil spirit, I would have dealt with her long ago. Will I wait until now? There is really nothing I can do! "
He leaned back and asked tentatively: "How about I give you a powerful ghost-suppressing charm that can bind her to the person she possesses, and then you can focus on destroying it."
"Okay, I'll believe you for once. Here's the talisman, bring it!" Ye Xingtong put down the broom and stretched out his hand to Huang Dao Zhang.
As long as the female ghost can be eliminated and the people in the county can save their lives, she can prove it to herself, no matter what method he uses.
Although Daoist Huang can't help them now, at least it's not helpless. It's a blessing to have the ghost-suppressing talisman. Otherwise, if the female ghost comes to this body and that body, it will be really a headache. No matter what, while not involving innocent people, it is indeed not easy to capture the female ghost.
Huang Daochang touched his non-existent beard, stretched out a finger, and whispered: "Little girl, hehe, it's not there yet, just wait for me for one more day, and it will be fine in one day."
"What if something goes wrong?" Ye Xingtong blinked and looked at Huang Daochang with a half-smile. It wasn't that she didn't believe him, it was because Huang Daochang's credibility was too low.
"In case, it's not good, it's not good, then can you hit me with a broom?" Huang Daozhang thought hard, his eyes brightened, and he said cheerfully.
Yes, that's it. At worst, he will just run away! Wu Ye was still at the bottom because he couldn't run away, so he asked Wu Ye to be his helper.
Beat you? She really wanted to!
She once said in public in the government office that it would take three days to catch the murderer. Time was tight. If you could, seize the time. One day? It was indeed too long.
Next she will go all out.
"Hitting you seems too light," Ye Xingtong said with a frown, thinking carefully, raising a sly smile at the corner of his mouth, clapped his hands and said, "Let's do this, if you can't practice the ghost-suppressing talisman in one day, I set fire to your Taoist temple. Also, didn't you just say that you can practice the rejuvenating elixir in half a month? I will be here on time. If not... It's still the same. What's wrong with your Taoist temple? Want it."
Huang Daozhang wailed in pain: "Little girl, don't kill them all, right? I only have a place to live in the Taoist temple, you can't be so cruel!"
Ye Xingtong blinked, tapped on the sleeve of Huang Daochang, and said: "Fair and impartial, remember what you promised me, I will stay in the Taoist temple today, and I will come to you at this time tomorrow to ask for it." Ghost Suppressing Talisman.”
"Three days!" Huang Daozhang gritted his teeth after learning from the pain.
Ye Xingtong lazily stretched out a finger, resolutely uncompromising: "One day is already my lowest bottom line. As someone said just now, once a word is said, it will be hard to follow. You can't keep your word, otherwise if you are reported to If I go out, I think if people outside know the great Zodiac in their hearts..."
"Hey, just one day at a time, don't go out and ruin my reputation." Huang Daochang snorted a few times.
"That's good, please look forward to the achievements of the Zodiac Master." Ye Xingtong cupped his hands and said without sincerity.
Ye Xingtong took Wu Ye down, while Daochang Huang was crying and shouting in the small courtyard: "Old ancestor! Who let this devil come! Not only do I want to give away the precious rare and priceless spiritual herbs that have been stored for ten years, After dedicating it to others, I had to spend thousands of taels of silver to refine the ghost-suppressing talisman, and I was forced to spend a day refining it, what kind of evil have I done!"
If our ancestors were summoned, they would definitely say rudely: "It's your own fault. You brought it on yourself. You can handle it yourself!"
A little Taoist priest led Ye Xingtong and Wu Ye to the guest room not far from the front yard. The room was not very good, but the surrounding environment was good. It was densely covered with jungle, surrounded by big trees, and there were flowers in bloom and the fragrance was fragrant.
There is a simple feeling like a small existence in the countryside.
"Girl, you can stay here. I'll go down first. If you need anything, you can call us." The little Taoist priest said, nodding slightly.
"Thank you for your hard work!" Ye Xingtong nodded lightly and led Wu Ye inside.
Stretching and sitting on the chair, Ye Xingtong put the bag aside and rested his chin on his hand before saying: "Wu Ye, do you think that Zodiac Chief is reliable? Why do I think he is so unreliable?" Could it be that he lied to us?"
"Do you think I have any other options?" Wu Ye looked at the leaves blown by the wind outside and said calmly.
