In the small courtyard with a quiet environment in Sangzhi City, the door of the courtyard was closed tightly, as if there was no one there.
However, under the tree in the courtyard, there was a woman in a coquettish red robe lying lazily on a rocking chair, closing her eyes and falling asleep. Behind her, a pretty girl was gently squeezing her shoulders. The rhythm was very slow and relaxing.
Suddenly, a sudden gust of wind blew in the courtyard.
When the wind stopped, a girl wearing a dark green cloak suddenly appeared, kneeling on the ground. "Little Sir, I'm back."
Mu Qingge slowly opened her eyes, her clear eyes fell on You He who was kneeling on the ground, and asked, "Tell me."
"Yes, young master." Youhe organized the words in his mind, and then told the information he had gathered one by one: "The people who ambushed the young master in the suburbs were bandits from the nearby mountains. Sang Zhicheng is close to Sunset Wasteland and close to the Kingdom of Ba. It is said that many battlefield deserters and refugees have fallen into the mountains and become bandits, occupying the mountains and becoming kings. Not only that, because of the special nature of Sangzhi City, there are many casual cultivators nearby."
"Bandits, rogue cultivators?" Mu Qingge whispered these two words in her mouth. Suddenly, she laughed jokingly: "I'm afraid many people have both identities."
"Young Master is wise." Youhe happily flattered Mu Qingge and said, "These people usually cause trouble, but they rarely mess with Yaota. And Yaota seems to have maintained his own identity. I don't want to manage these scattered sands. However, I heard secret rumors that some Medicine Pagoda disciples secretly have deals with these forces, providing elixirs in exchange for their military support. For example, killing people, seizing rare and famous medicines, etc. Today, they were The group that the young master dealt with probably had a secret deal with Diao Yuan."
Mu Qingge nodded almost incomprehensibly and asked, "Can we find out how many people are left in this force, and what other forces are related to Diao Yuan?"
Youhe pursed his lips and said with some self-reproach: "Master, forgive me, Youhe hasn't found out yet. Master, please give me one more day, and Youhe will find out clearly."
"Get up, it's not easy for you to find out this information in such a short time." Mu Qingge didn't care at all.
Youhe got up as he was told and handed Mu Qingge the information that he had received from Qin's Mu Mansion and Longya Guard in the past few days. Of course, this information was sorted out by her and Huayue, and some duplicates or unimportant ones were filtered out.
"Little Sir, this is the news from Mu's Mansion. This is the news from Longya Guard." Youhe handed two separate stacks of papers to Mu Qingge.
Mu Qingge took it, glanced at it lightly, and took in the content above.
Most of the news from Mu Mansion is about the current situation in Qin. Generally speaking, the little emperor is quite obedient and has not caused any trouble. Most of the current government affairs have to be handled by the regent Qin Jinchen. As for the Mu family, most of the time they maintain a high profile and stay out of things.
In addition to state affairs, it is naturally family affairs.
The letter said that Mr. Mu was in good health and his aunt was still as handsome as ever, but they both missed her very much. Asked her when she would return to Qin to see them, and asked her where she was now, whether she was still used to living outside, and whether she had enough money. Don't wrong yourself.
After reading it, Mu Qingge told You He: "Take time to write a reply to grandpa and aunt. It is right not to interfere in Qin's government affairs. The old man has worked hard for Qin all his life, and it is time for him to take care of himself. If it is true, If you're bored, why not help your aunt find a good husband? As for me, I'm doing well in the medicine tower now, so let them rest assured. When will I go back? I will definitely go back after I finish what I'm doing."
"Yes, young lord." Youhe wrote them down one by one.
After reading the state affairs and family letters, Mu Qingge turned his attention to the information from the Longya Guard.
Above, there are actually only two things.
The first thing is the training status of Dragon Tooth Guard. The second incident was the result of Mo Yang being ordered to investigate the connection between Feng Niang and Princess Li.
Mo Yang's letter pointed out that if there is no accident, Feng Niang hiding in Sunset Town of Qin State is the eldest princess of Li State who left for love. The treasure of Li State that was taken away by the eldest princess was the semi-artifact dagger that now fell into the hands of Mu Qingsinger.
Among them, there is a more important piece of news, that is, in the Li Kingdom, the princess and the prince also have the right to inherit!
In other words, if Feng Niang had not left, she would have been the most likely heir to the throne based on her reputation in the Li Kingdom. Feng Yugui, that villain, has nothing to do with him at all.
As for Mu Yi, Mo Yang didn't find out much. Just like the original investigation, this person appeared out of thin air and finally disappeared suddenly in the Sunset Forest.
Mu Qingge closed the information, squinted his eyes and said to himself: "Assuming that Mu Yi is really not from Linchuan, then his disappearance in the Sunset Forest, does it mean that somewhere in the Sunset Forest, there is a person who left Linchuan? Restricted? But if he really left Linchuan, why didn't he take Feng Niang with him? "
After thinking for a while, Mu Qingge's tight lips slowly loosened, "It seems that it's time to see Feng Niang again." Whether it was Mu Yi's matter or Feng Yugui's trouble, she felt it was necessary to meet her once. Feng Niang.
She felt that the transaction between them could be done in a different way.
Mu Qingge's eyes flashed a little and she ordered: "Send a message to Mo Yang and ask him to bring Feng Niang here. I want to see her here on the next holiday."
"Yes, young lord." Youhe and Huayue responded.
After the affairs were almost settled, Mu Qingge asked the two girls: "How are you living in Sangzhi City these days? Are there any troubles that anyone would cause you?"
Youhe and Huayue looked at each other, smiled, and shook their heads.
Youhe said: "We obey the young master's orders, stay in the simple and simple life, and don't cause trouble easily, so we live peacefully."
Mu Qingge nodded almost imperceptibly. Suddenly she looked awkward for a few times and said slowly: "Well, um... Has Uncle Mo come back during this time?"
Huayue said quickly: "No. After the young master went to the medicine tower, we have not seen Uncle Mo again."
A trace of imperceptible disappointment flashed in Mu Qingge's eyes. "Oh, maybe he left for something." An uncomfortable emotion arose in his heart, but Mu Qingge ignored it.
She comforted herself with relief: 'That guy came and went without a trace, so how could there be any explanation? '
Maybe she didn't notice Mu Qingge's strangeness, but as her personal maid, Youhe and Huayue secretly exchanged a look...
In the end, both of them wisely kept silent. They didn't want to suffer disaster if their master became angry out of shame!
"Little Sir, what do you want to eat? I'll prepare it." Youhe changed the subject.
Mu Qingge thought carefully and named the dish he liked.
After Youhe wrote them down one by one, he retreated and prepared the ingredients.
Huayue stayed by Mu Qingge's side to serve.
After the sumptuous dinner, Mu Qingge finished bathing and dressing herself, then lay down on the comfortable soft bed, spreading her limbs flat, completely relaxing.
"It's so comfortable." Mu Qingge closed her eyes with a happy face.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes and saw a white shadow coming towards her.
Her eyes suddenly widened, but the other party was so fast that she couldn't react, and he controlled her hands and feet in an instant.
Feeling that her legs were being suppressed and her wrists were firmly held by the opponent, she said in a colder voice: "Let me go!"
"Xiao Ge'er, have you missed me?" The alluring face leaned over with a slight smile, and there were dots of doting in her amber eyes.
"Get out!" Mu Qingge's voice became darker.
But to Si Mo's ears, it sounded more like a feeling of embarrassment at being told the central issue.
Mu Qingge's warning was not taken seriously by Si Mo at all. He still looked down at her with a smile, his dark hair falling down, naturally intertwined with Mu Qingge's hair.
"Do you know that you are very heavy?" Mu Qingge gritted his teeth and squeezed out these words from between his teeth.
As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt dizzy.
When the spinning feeling disappeared, she had switched places with Si Mo and she was lying on top of him. This gesture was too ambiguous. Even though she was thick-skinned, she still felt her cheeks burning.
The overly intimate gesture made Mu Qingge feel like running away.
Her hands had been let go, and Si Mo tightened his arms around her waist, pressing their bodies together tightly.
Mu Qingge put her hands on Si Mo's chest, trying to distance the two of them.
However, she discovered that this man was really damn strong!
The clear eyes turned cold, and a faint purple light burst out from Mu Qingge's body in the deep blue. She seems to want to rely on spiritual power to 'save' herself out!
The dark blue light spread from Mu Qingge's body and gradually extended to Si Mo's body.
However, he didn't seem to notice it and instead hugged her a little tighter.
The slender fingers seemed to be deliberately mischievous, moving gently back and forth on her back. An itchy feeling came from his back, making Mu Qingge go crazy.
"The more Xiaoge'er resists, the more tempted I am." The words that came to his ears made Mu Qingge freeze up in fear.
It seemed that Si Mo would turn into a wolf in the next second and force her to do something inappropriate for children.
Mu Qingge's muscles all stiffened, causing the corners of Si Mo's mouth to slowly rise. He asked again: "Xiao Ge'er obviously misses me, why does she look so disgusted when she sees me?"
"I want you to die!" Mu Qingge finally ran away!
At this moment, even if this man wanted to slap her to death, she would still resist.
Without thinking, Mu Qingge gathered spiritual power with her right fist and hit Si Mo hard in the chest.
However, the expected roar did not appear, nor did the imagined scene of blood flying all over the sky like delicate petals.
Mu Qingge only felt that the spiritual power he exerted seemed to be sucked by some force.
Si Mo's chest seemed to turn into a vortex that could swallow everything, swallowing up all the spiritual power she exerted.
She has always known that there is a big gap between herself and this monster. However, when the truth came, she felt it was too shocking!
Outside, maybe she is still a master.
However, in front of this man, she didn't even have the strength to fight back.
'good! If you can't beat me, I'll poison you to death! ' Mu Qingge gritted her teeth in her heart.
But a certain thousand-year-old monster seemed to be aware of it, and said with a smile in his voice: "Even if it is poison, as long as it is fed to me by Xiao Ge'er, I will be happy with it."
Depend on! Do you want to say it so ambiguously? Hey, hey your sister!
The baby is so angry!
Mu Qingge seemed to hear the sound of her teeth grinding.
'This man is so difficult! ' Mu Qingge said frustrated in her heart.
Suddenly, an idea came to her mind. 'It seems that there is a way to make him embarrassed. '
Mu Qingge's beautiful face suddenly burst into a moving smile.
She took the initiative to reach out and take off her earrings. Without the cover of the illusion, she was like a peerless beauty walking out of the fog, clearly visible nestled in Si Mo's arms.
Si Mo's eyes flickered, and he waited with great interest for the next words.
Mu Qingge gave up struggling, folded her hands on Si Mo's chest, and rested her chin on the back of her hands. Her delicate and unparalleled facial features revealed a laziness that looked at the world.
"If His Majesty the Holy King wants to devote himself to me, then I have to accept it. I am probably the only person in the world who can make His Majesty the Holy King lower himself to serve others." As he spoke, Mu Qingge pointed out The tip scratched across Si Mo's chest intentionally or unintentionally.
"How are you going to accept it, Xiao Ge'er?" Si Mo showed an expression that said, "This honor is really only yours." But his voice was obviously hoarse.
Mu Qingge frowned slightly, as if he was thinking about this problem seriously.
After a while, she said innocently: "Well, shouldn't His Majesty the Holy King be the one to worry about how to serve this problem?" You like to play, right? good! I will accompany you to the end!
"Then I'll wait for Xiao Ge'er to undress first." After Si Mo finished speaking, he turned over and lay on his side next to Mu Qingge. He hugged her with one hand and stretched out his other hand to grab Mu Qingge's clothes. belt.
As long as he pulls hard, the belt will be untied, revealing the infinite scenery.
Mu Qingge's eyes fell on his hand, slightly nervous, but she pretended to be calm and smiled particularly coquettishly.
This expression made Si Mo's amber eyes darken, and with a shake of his hand, his clothes were untied.
The smooth brocade robe slipped off, revealing Mu Qingge's delicate collarbones and a large expanse of snow-white skin on her chest. Fortunately, the key positions were wrapped in towels and were not exposed.
However, this kind of charm was enough to make Si Mo's heart skip a beat.
The snow-white scenery in front of him made his vision blurred, and his mind was in a trance for a moment.
The coolness on the collarbone and the man's obsessed eyes made Mu Qingge feel murderous in his heart. She didn't expect that Si Mo would really dare to do this!
Suddenly, she curled up her lips and smiled charmingly. She stretched out her hand, grabbed Si Mo's belt, and said in a very seductive voice: "Then I will help His Majesty the Holy King undress and untie himself."
After saying that, she was about to pull off Si Mo's belt.
However, before she could pull it off, her hand was firmly held down by Si Mo, allowing her to feel the tight waist muscles behind the fabric and the slightly hot skin.
Mu Qingge was startled and looked up at Si Mo, but at that moment he looked into those deep amber eyes.
That kind of depth and concentration was the first time she had seen it.
"Xiao Ge'er, will you be my wife from now on?" Si Mo suddenly asked seriously.
There was no joking in that tone, as if it was the most solemn question he had ever asked in his life.
However, when these words fell in Mu Qingge's ears, they were like a bolt from the blue! She really came without any preparation. When her brain was functioning clearly, she subconsciously said: "You must be sick!"
Such an answer made Si Mo's eyes darker. He was not angry or disappointed. Instead, he looked at her more seriously and said word by word: "Yes, I am glad that you are ill. There is no cure for it. Only you are my good medicine."
hiss!
Mu Qingge had goosebumps all over her body and couldn't help but said: "Master, where did you learn such disgusting words?"
"Don't make jokes and think carefully about what I say. I won't force you." Si Mo sighed helplessly and said in a deep voice.
Mu Qingge's mouth twitched and she shut her mouth obediently.
Si Mo stared at the way Mu Qingge pursed her lips tightly. He felt heartbroken when he saw that her originally red lips turned white due to her pursed lips.
He slowly lowered his head, trying to free his poor lips.
The breaths of the two people gradually became closer and entangled with each other. Mu Qingge opened her eyes wide and stared at Si Mo's increasingly clear appearance. When the tips of her noses touched lightly, she turned her head away.
Si Mo's cool lips, with their peculiar fragrance, slid across her cheeks, bringing a shiver to her skin.
It was as if Mu Qingge heard a heavy sigh in her ears, and then she fell asleep.
That night, she slept extremely peacefully and sweetly.
In the dream, Si Mo's words echoed all the time and lingered.
When she woke up from her sleep, she was still in a state of confusion, not knowing whether she was awake or in a dream.
Next to her, Si Mo had long since disappeared, without even a breath left, as if Mu Qingge's memory of last night was really just a dream for her.
Lying on the soft bed, Mu Qingge stared blankly at the ceiling of the tent. The layers of gauze were like fog, blocking the truth of the incident.
Si Mo, a thousand-year-old monster, actually said he liked her? Want her to be his wife? Was she hallucinating
Mu Qingge's clear eyes were filled with confusion.
This wasn't what scared her the most, it was what she was afraid of. After hearing these words, she actually didn't feel disgusted, let alone disgusted!
This is... a crazy situation!
Did you decide not to get married? Did you agree that conquering the world is your top priority? Did you agree to wear men's clothing to show off your style to all walks of life
Marry and have children? !
This topic is simply a naked thriller, okay!
Mu Qingge thought of the future scene where she would hold a baby with one hand and fight monsters with the other. She suddenly trembled and almost broke into a cold sweat.
"Damn! I must have been poisoned by that old monster! It's still that kind of potent poison that confuses the mind!" Mu Qingge cursed fiercely.
Suddenly, the place on her cheek where Si Mo kissed her last night felt faintly hot.
She involuntarily raised her hands to cover her cheeks, and suddenly felt her face turning red and hot.
This kind of burning quickly spread all over her body, making her whole body feel like a red-hot iron.
The heat was so uncomfortable that Mu Qingge suddenly sat up from the bed, pulled his neck and shouted outside: "Youhe, Huayue, prepare water, I want to take a cold shower!"
Although she didn't want to believe it or admit it, she had to recognize the fact... She was actually seduced by a thousand-year-old demon!
Taking a cold shower early in the morning
What kind of fun is this, young sir
Youhe and Huayue walked into Mu Qingge's room with buckets on their faces and poured cold water into the bathtub.
Soon, the bathtub was filled with water.
When Youhe and Hua Yue exited, the former said, "My young master, what do you want to eat for breakfast today?"
Mu Qingge said in a somewhat irritable tone: "I've been getting a little angry lately, so just make some food to reduce the heat. By the way, I've also changed my tea to chrysanthemum tea!"
'The young prince is so weird today! '
'Yeah yeah! Why did you suddenly get angry? '
The two girls silently communicated everything with their eyes and retreated.
After the two left, Mu Qingge sank into the cold water and felt that the heat in her body was relieved.
This cold shower lasted for a full hour. Mu Qingge walked out refreshed.
In the hall, on the round table, Youhe had already prepared Mu Qingge's fire-fighting feast. However, only Huayue was busy, but Youhe was nowhere to be seen.
Mu Qingge sat down, took a sip from the porridge bowl, and asked, "Where is Youhe?"
While Huayue served Mu Qingge with dishes, she replied: "She went to complete the task assigned by the young master yesterday."
Remembering that she had asked You He to investigate the forces related to Diao Yuan yesterday, Mu Qingge nodded and did not ask any more questions.
It was not until the afternoon, after Mu Qingge woke up from her lunch break, that You He returned home covered in dust.
After entering the small courtyard, Youhe immediately reported the information he found out to Mu Qingge. "Young Sir, we have found out clearly. The force that ambushed you has been destroyed. Presumably, the people killed by Young Sir that day were all their elites. In addition to Diao Yuan's dealings with this force, He also has close contacts with three other forces. These three forces are considered to be the more powerful ones among the many forces. It is said that their leaders are all above the Blue Realm, and there is even a force whose leader is a beginner in the Blue Realm. .”
Mu Qingge squinted her eyes and listened carefully. She was a little surprised by the information Youhe got back.
She could not have imagined that among such rogue bandits, there were actually strong men from the blue realm.
It would be normal for such a master to be able to form a family anywhere in a third-class country, or to work for major forces, but it would be a pity to become a bandit.
In particular, he became a gangster who had good relations with Diao Yuan.
Mu Qingge's eyes turned cold, with murderous intent in his eyes.
"The total number of people in the three teams totals a thousand, of whom there are about 300 in the Green Realm and above, and most of the rest are in the Orange Realm and Red Realm." Youhe added.
A playful smile appeared on Mu Qingge's lips. She played with the ring in her hand and told Huayue and Youhe: "Write a letter to Mo Yang and ask him to send the Dragon Tooth Guard closest to Sangzhi City. I want this No one among the thousands will be spared." Didn't Diao Yuan think that he could cover the sky with one hand? Then she will break off his hand outside first!
You He raised her eyes and responded: "Yes." However, she said hesitantly: "The other party has the first level of the Blue Realm, we..." The strongest one in the Dragon Tooth Guard right now is Mo Yang, and he is only in the Qing Realm.
"If you can't beat him, use this place." Mu Qingge pointed at his head. "What's the point of always bullying people who are better than you? Only by finding ways to challenge yourself can you grow the fastest."
I remember that when she was still in the Yellow Realm, she exchanged her life for her life to kill the old man Beiming in the pseudo-Purple Realm. When he was in the green realm, he also hit outsiders hard with unpreparedness. Now the Dragon Tooth Guard is only facing a beginner in the Blue Realm, and has no reason to back down.
Youhe fell silent.
Mu Qingge added: "During the time when the Longya Guards arrived, you two were responsible for collecting intelligence. The completion rate of a task often depends on the accuracy of the intelligence."
"Yes! Little Sir."
"Yes, young lord."
The young lotuses and the flowery moon responded one after another.
"Okay, you go down and do your work, don't worry about me." Mu Qingge waved her hands, her tone a little tired.
It seemed that after eating, she wanted to take another nap.
In the end, Mu Qingge still couldn't sleep this time.
She entered the space and continued working on her grenade launcher.
There is no problem with the structure of the gun. The main problem that needs to be solved is the bullet. She wanted to use animal cores instead of bullets, but it seemed too wasteful to use one animal core as a bullet.
"It would be nice if we could convert and store the energy in the beast core and use it in batches. Just like the laser gun in that world, it also relies on energy. It can be replenished once, but it can be used for a long time. Also, it is necessary to launch The destructive power of the energy going out is enhanced to the greatest extent." Mu Qingge held a piece of beast core in one hand and muttered something in his mouth.
The idea is there, but it needs to be gradually improved and put into practice.
In addition, if the beast core is used as energy, then the casting materials of the grenade gun need to be better. Otherwise, after just a few uses, the chamber will explode and one of your own people will be hurt.
"As for the materials, we can let Longya Guard and Qian Liejun collect some. In addition, we can also find some from Wanxiang Tower." Mu Qingge pondered for a while, and suddenly shouted: "Mengmeng."
"Master Yin, master Yin, why do you call the most patient cute baby?" Mengmeng appeared in front of Mu Qingge in an instant.
Mu Qingge asked: "Mengmeng, are there any good materials for refining weapons here?"
Mengmeng nodded without thinking: "Of course!"
Mu Qingge's eyes suddenly lit up, and she felt as if happiness came too suddenly. However, Mengmeng's next words knocked her from the cloud of happiness to the bottom of cheating.
"Kesu, Mengmeng can't get it." Mengmeng helplessly spread her fleshy hands and shook her head.
Mu Qingge frowned: "Why can't you get it? Can't you just get those medicinal materials?"
"That's because the medicinal materials grow outside, and Mengmeng can get them. But the materials for refining the weapons are locked in the palace. I can't get in, so naturally I can't get them." Mengmeng felt aggrieved at her short and fat little fingers. The way.
"Aren't you a weapon spirit? Is there any place you can't go here?" Mu Qingge still couldn't understand.
Unexpectedly, Mengmeng felt even more aggrieved.
The corner of her mouth curled up: "The baby is a weapon spirit, but his ability must be linked to the master's strength!"
Well!
Mu Qingge looked embarrassed, coughed twice in embarrassment, and said, "You mean, as long as I break through, you will become stronger and the more places you can go to?"
"Yes! Master Yin is so stupid! You haven't broken through the purple realm yet. Once you break through the purple realm, you will be able to open many palace doors, including the weapon refining materials and martial arts skills you want!" Mengmeng said arrogantly.
Stimulate! It was simply tempting her and stimulating her!
Mu Qingge took a deep breath and assured Mengmeng seriously: "Don't worry, I will work hard to practice!"
…
When we came out of the space, it was already night.
Mu Qingge looked around the room and suddenly felt a bit deserted.
Taking off his outer robe, Mu Qingge lay on the soft bed, and suddenly a thought came to his mind: 'Will he come again tonight?' 'As soon as this thought arose, she was suddenly thrown out of her mind.
"What are you thinking about! It's better if you don't come!" Mu Qingge cursed himself, turned towards the wall, closed his eyes and tried to fall asleep.
However, this night, she still couldn't sleep.
So, when she appeared the next day with two dark circles under her eyes, Youhe and Huayue were shocked.
"Little Sir, are you okay?" Hua Yue asked with concern.
You He also said: "My young master, did you not get a good rest last night?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as these words came out, Mu Qingge seemed to be like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, grinning at the two of them and retorted: "Who said I didn't sleep well? I don't know how well I slept!"
"..." Youhe was stunned.
"..." Huayue was stunned.
Mu Qingge, who felt that he was overreacting, touched the tip of his nose awkwardly and said to the two of them: "Ahem, hurry up and prepare breakfast. After eating, I will go back to the medicine tower."
After a hurried breakfast, Mu Qingge left the courtyard and returned to the medicine tower.
Before leaving, Youhe and Huayue insisted on sending her away, but Mu Qingge refused without hesitation.
The two girls were worried that she would be ambushed again, but she didn't think Diao Yuan would do this. Since the first ambush failed, Diao Yuan would not take any further action before he found out her details.
Therefore, after strictly ordering Youhe and Huayue to stay in the small courtyard, Mu Qingge left alone.
When they arrived at the place where they took the medicine tower flying beast, Mu Qingge didn't meet Diao Yuan's people, but unexpectedly met Zhu Ling, who had approached her before and wanted her to help refine the Guiyuan Beauty Pill.
"Senior Sister Zhu?" Mu Qingge couldn't pretend not to see the beautiful woman walking toward him.
"Junior Brother Mu, you finally showed up." Zhu Ling walked up to Mu Qingge with a smile.
Mu Qingge gave a faint smile: "It's a coincidence that I met Senior Sister Zhu here."
"It's no coincidence at all. I'm waiting for you here specially." Zhu Ling's charming eyes showed a trace of sadness.
Mu Qingge's smile deepened and she asked, "Oh? I wonder what Senior Sister Zhu is waiting for me here for?"
"Do you still remember what you promised me?" Zhu Ling looked at Mu Qingge and asked softly.
Mu Qingge nodded.
Seeing this, Zhu Ling's smile became even more touching. Regardless of the ambiguous looks cast by the disciples of the Medicine Pagoda around her, she said to Mu Qingge: "In that case, let's go with senior sister."
"Where does Senior Sister want me to go?" Mu Qingge's eyes flashed and she asked.
Zhu Ling covered her lips and smiled softly, "Don't worry, senior sister won't eat you. Although Junior Brother Mu is unparalleledly handsome, senior sister, the person who lives in my heart is not you. There is an exchange day today, I will practice Guiyuan There is still a shortage of ingredients for the beauty elixir, so please accompany me to see if I can find the best one. By the way, if you like something, my senior sister will buy it for you, which can be regarded as a reward for asking you to make the elixir."
"Exchange day?" Mu Qingge asked.
This was her first time hearing about it.
Zhu Ling smiled and said: "Let's go, talk as we go."
With that said, she took the lead and walked in the other direction.
Mu Qingge thought for a while and followed her.
The two of them walked side by side, and after a while, Mu Qingge discovered that many disciples from the Medicine Pagoda were also walking quickly in the direction they were going. And, most people are holding a tight package in their hands.
Mu Qingge's eyes swept over these people.
At this time, Zhu Ling said: "The so-called exchange days are stipulated by the Medicine Pagoda. Every month, there will be a temporary market in a fixed place for the Medicine Pagoda disciples to exchange some medicinal materials, prescriptions, or elixirs. . Of course, outsiders can also participate, as long as they can get something of equal value, they can exchange it."
Mu Qingge understood that exchange day should be a primitive place for bartering.
However, she didn't understand why Zhu Ling came here to look for medicinal materials. "Senior Sister Zhu, the medicinal materials for refining the Guiyuan Beauty Pill are in the medicine tower. Why do you want to go far away instead of the near?"
"Junior brother, I don't know. Although the medicinal materials in the Medicine Pagoda can be provided to disciples in rations, they don't get what they want. The only exception is Dou Dan. You can get the medicinal materials according to the elixir you want to fight. Senior sister, I can't refine it at all. How can we get high-grade elixirs? If we buy them in the medicine tower, the price will be quite high. I would rather try my luck on the exchange day." Zhu Ling said with emotion.
Mu Qingge asked calmly: "Senior Sister Zhu is the dean's beloved disciple. Is there no exception?"
Zhu Ling chuckled: "Junior Brother Mu, you want to ask if Diao Yuan and I are together?"
Mu Qingge was not embarrassed when his thoughts were exposed, but admired Zhu Ling's intelligence.
At first, she had doubts when she saw Zhu Ling and Shang Zisu getting close. How could two people who were supposed to be incompatible become friends? Besides, judging from how the two get along, it doesn't look like they are cheating.
Zhu Ling stopped laughing and said with a sigh: "Senior Brother Diao is extremely talented and is very favored by Master. But I, with an average appearance, can only rely on some tricks and maneuvers to protect myself."
Her words made Mu Qingge notice something.
Smiling slightly, Mu Qingge said to Zhu Ling: "Sister Zhu, why should you belittle yourself? If you can be accepted by Dean Hua as a disciple, you must have talent. As long as you work hard for a few more days, you will become a senior alchemist."
Mu Qingge's words made Zhu Ling feel happy. She laughed so hard that her waist trembled: "Then I would like to express my auspicious words to my junior brother. If my senior sister becomes a high-level alchemist one day, she will definitely remember today's encouragement."
The two of them talked and laughed all the way, but they didn't feel sad about the time.
Soon, Zhu Ling brought Mu Qingge to the entrance of a temporary market.
To say it is a temporary market is really not wrong at all.
Outside the market, there is an archway without any plaque. It seems that it is just to tell the people who come that the market will start from now on.
In the archway, there are many straw sheds built, with banners hanging in the wind on the beams. On the banner, either the word "tea" is written, or a "teapot" is drawn.
In addition to these 'buildings', the ground was covered with linen of various colors, and many items for exchange were placed on the linen.
As Zhu Ling said, at a glance, the most common ones are medicinal materials, followed by elixirs, and finally some successfully refined elixirs.
There are already many people in the market.
Judging from their clothes, most of them are disciples of the Medicine Pagoda.
There are also some people wearing other clothes, probably outsiders who want to trade with the disciples of the Medicine Pagoda.
"Junior Brother Mu, let's go in and take a look. If you like any medicinal materials, you can speak up. Don't be polite to Senior Sister." Zhu Ling said to Mu Qingge.
Mu Qingge nodded with a smile and walked into the market with Zhu Ling.
As soon as she entered the market, Zhu Ling began to search for the medicinal materials she was missing. On the contrary, Mu Qingge had no specific purpose and looked around with interest.
"Senior Sister Zhu, when does this exchange day usually start and end?" Mu Qingge suddenly asked.
Zhu Ling replied: "Generally, it starts at Yin time and ends at Zi time. However, our Medicine Pagoda disciples usually return to the tower at dusk."
Mu Qingge nodded almost imperceptibly and continued to look at it.
Mu Qingge would only be tempted by medicinal materials unless they were extremely rare and valuable. Mengmeng has an unlimited supply of ordinary medicinal materials and even some treasures, so she is not very interested.
As for the elixirs, she has the inheritance of the Alchemy God and has read through the collection in the elixir museum. How can she be curious about these elixirs
And the elixir…
It didn't interest her even more.
Although the two walked together, they did not interfere with each other.
After wandering around for a while, Zhu Ling finally found the medicinal materials she needed at a stall. After some haggling, Zhu Ling replaced this medicinal ingredient with a bottle of elixir she had refined.
After accomplishing his goal, Zhu Ling felt relieved. He turned around and saw Mu Qingge standing with his hands behind his back, and joked: "It seems that the things here are beyond the eyes of Junior Brother Mu."
Mu Qingge smiled and said nothing more.
Suddenly, the sound of an argument was heard not far away, and the sound was somewhat familiar.
Mu Qingge looked up, but only saw a crowd of people.
Zhu Ling glanced at her and asked, "Junior Brother Mu, want to go over and have a look?"
Mu Qingge looked back at her and said with a smile, "I seem to have heard a familiar voice."
"Then let's go over and take a look. However, the reward promised to Junior Brother Mu may have to be postponed." Zhu Ling said with a smile.
Mu Qingge shook his head and said, "No problem."
With that said, the two walked towards the place where the crowd gathered.
The closer they got, the clearer the sounds of arguments inside could be heard.
After hearing the voice clearly, Mu Qingge frowned and quickened his pace.
"Hey! Is it okay for you to tease a woman in the street? You really think our medicine tower is just a decoration!" Wei Guanguan said angrily.
As soon as Mu Qingge walked into the crowd, he saw a few people in the center of the crowd.
When she saw it clearly, she was stunned for a moment. They are all familiar people. But, how did they get together
Before she could figure it out, Zhu Ling, who was following behind, also saw clearly the people surrounded, shouted out loud: "Zisu!" Then she squeezed in and stood in front of the crowd with a cold face and anger on her eyebrows. Shang Zisu's side.
