Chapter 140 Green Snake
Chapter 140 Green Snake
After returning to Tang Huanyun's residence, the two went to the practice room first. When the door opened, they saw Jingchen and Qionghua sitting upright. No one paid any attention to each other, and they were as silent as two clay sculptures.
When the two heard the door open, they hurriedly stood up to greet him. Qionghua asked, "How is it? Is there anything wrong?"
Mu Hanxing nodded: "Don't worry, Cui Ren and his disciples are not in the mountains. Because of my junior uncle, the others have not come to trouble me for the time being. However, my junior uncle's poison cannot always rely on Cui Ren to prolong his life. This is too passive. So, I have an idea. There are about six days before the next poison attack. During this time, I will first find the medicine, and then use the trick against him. Let my junior uncle continue to lurk around Cui Ren under the pretext of seeking the antidote, find his weakness, and then annihilate him in one fell swoop."
Qionghua nodded, looking confident: "As long as there is a medicine lead, I can make an antidote, and it is a medicine that will permanently eliminate the poison once and for all. There is a medicine refining room inside the mountain gate for me to use."
Tang Huanyun was surprised: "I didn't expect that the young lady is actually the living Hua Tuo?"
Her new father looked like he had never seen the world...
She found it funny and chuckled, then said to Qionghua, "This is not a difficult task. With the authority of Junior Master, I can find an excuse to use the alchemy room. By the way, what are the medicinal ingredients?"
When mentioning this, Qionghua looked a little unconvinced and glanced at Jingchen beside her.
At this time, Jing Chen pulled out a plain cloth bag from his sleeve and took over the conversation, saying, "I have already obtained one of the ingredients. This has bought some time for the city lord's uncle. Six days is not too short, but it is not too long either. It is better to do it as soon as possible."
This time, Mu Hanxing and Tang Huanyun were both shocked. She hurried forward and took a look at the bag in his hand. She knew at a glance that it was an extremely rare green-tailed snake, which could be used to make wine and medicine. It usually grows in secluded swamps. Not only is it difficult to see, it is also extremely vigilant. It will hide in the jungle and disappear at the slightest sign of trouble. Its body is also very slimy, so it is very difficult to catch.
How did Jingchen do it in such a short time?
There was an unconcealable surprise in her eyes. At this moment, Jing Chen looked even more handsome. Look how good-looking he is.
"While I was talking to Junior Master, you went out of the mountain gate to catch snakes? So quickly?" Mu Hanxing asked.
Jing Chen explained, "I had a chat with the Lord of Qionghua. When we talked about the medicinal ingredients, I thought that instead of waiting for you here, I might as well go do something first. I heard that there was a muddy swamp not far from the foot of the Heart-Seeking Gate, and there might be a green-tailed snake, so I went to try my luck, and I happened to encounter one."
"That's great. When you left the mountain, no disciples saw you. Did that cause you trouble?" Mu Hanxing was still worried about him.
Jing Chen smiled faintly and shook his head: "I was already defeated by that group of people at the mountain gate just now, and the others ran away as soon as they saw me."
Mu Hanxing: “…”
Sure enough, in the fantasy world, violence is the best solution.
"This... I'm sorry to have troubled you. I'm ashamed to say that I have been in the Wenxin Gate for a long time, but I have never seen a green-tailed snake." Tang Huanyun was a little embarrassed.
Jing Chen hurriedly raised his sleeves and bowed: "You are too polite, Junior Master."
...Who is your junior uncle?
Don't shout.
"Qionghua, we have got the green-tailed snake, but what other medicinal ingredients are there?" Mu Hanxing asked her again.
Qionghua said: "I can mix the rest of the medicine with the reserve herbs in the mountain gate. The most difficult medicine to obtain is not only the green-tailed snake, but also a plant of orchid grass... Please forgive me, City Lord. I checked and found that the orchid grass seems to grow near an ancient country, but the location of the ancient country has disappeared, or the ancient country has changed its name and is no longer recorded in the history books. Now, I don't know where to pick this herb."
"Xicheng." Jingchen interrupted, "When I went to the foot of the mountain to get the medicinal ingredients, I asked about the Youlan grass. Farmers in nearby villages have heard that Xicheng has this special herb, but... I'm afraid I can't enter Xicheng for the time being. For some reason, those farmers repeatedly advised me not to go."
"It's the Theater City again?" Tang Huanyun was shocked. "Cui Ren and his disciples went to the Theater City for a few days and haven't returned yet. Did something happen to them?"
Mu Hanxing showed surprise: "Isn't that just perfect?"
Everyone: "..."
Although...but...it sounds like a villain...
Mu Hanxing didn't care at all about the strange looks the three people gave her at this time. She started to think, this is strange, isn't Feng Xiao also staying near the theater, waiting for her to find him?
It seems that it is impossible not to take the initiative to look for him. She feels a little uneasy in her heart, thinking that none of the men in front of her are reliable and trustworthy. But now is not the time to be fussy, and it is time to put aside the palace fighting drama.
"Why can't we enter the theater? Is it because there's a ghost?" Mu Hanxing asked Jingchen.
As long as they are not evil ghosts that block people's wealth, Jingchen doesn't care about any ghosts. He treats them all as passers-by. He ignores them when he is happy, and kills a few when he is unhappy.
He glanced at her shoulder with a worried look in his eyes: "You are still injured, and you just had a fight at the bottom of the river in Huaiyu Town. With your current physical condition, you might encounter something unexpected if you go. I can go for you this time."
"No." Tang Huanyun said anxiously, "I heard that the theater city is surrounded by gloomy energy, which is extremely unfavorable for cultivators. Maybe there are ghosts. Cui Ren hasn't come back yet. Their people may have encountered an accident. So many of them are in danger. Wouldn't it be more dangerous for you to go alone?"
A bunch of rookies are not as good as one big boss.
Mu Hanxing still has great confidence in Jingchen's professional ability, but she would never let him go alone for such a good opportunity to level up and fight monsters!
We can’t let him steal the kills anymore!
"Well, I'll take a rest today and recover my strength. We'll talk about it tomorrow morning. You are not allowed to go to the theater alone when I'm not around. Do you hear me?" Mu Hanxing emphasized to him solemnly.
Jing Chen quickly responded cheerfully: "Since it is the order of the city lord, I will take my leave and rest first."
"..."
He really knows how to take advantage of opportunities... He will never let go of any opportunity to slack off.
Later, Tang Huanyun ordered two trusted disciples to prepare guest rooms. Qionghua didn't need to rest and didn't want to rest. She decided to develop the medicine to relieve Mu Hanxing's injuries and other medicines to be used first to save some time.
Although Mu Hanxing's injuries were relieved a lot because of Du Ling, it would always be better to have medical treatment. Therefore, Tang Huanyun personally took Qionghua to the alchemy room where no one would disturb him for the time being.
