Keyboard Immortal - 23. Chapter 23-The Mysterious Lady
Zuan was taken aback. Seeing that she was so embarrassed, he couldn’t help being curious: “Although you say that, we are all in trouble and bathed together…cough cough, the last sentence doesn’t count, I mean we are friends. Yes, just say anything.”
Ji Xiaoxi retracted her pre-strike small fist, and then said embarrassedly: “Well, my father is refining a kind of medicine recently, and he needs the sturdy black jackal treasure. You know, after today’s events, I am afraid that there will be no sturdy black jackals in the Jackal Valley in a short time. It will be difficult to find this medicinal material at that time. I wonder if you can sell it to me?”
Zu Anxin wants you to know that the things I originally gave to your dad don’t know what the reaction will be, but his mouth responds faster than his brain: “How much are you going to pay?”
Ji Xiaoxi replied: “Ordinary dog treasures are not expensive, but the market price of stout black jackal dog treasures is 10 taels of silver.”
Zuan was shocked, this thing is so expensive? But when I thought about it, I was relieved. You must know that the gangly black jackal has a fierce nature, and there may not be one of ten. If you want to collect its dog treasures, you are gambled with your life. If you don’t pay attention, the chrysanthemum is full of bones. The rhythm of no existence.
He rolled his eyes and said, “That’s not right, right now, Mingyue City should have a price but no market.” If there is one on the market, Genius Doctor Ji would have bought it already, so it’s not necessary to publish this mission.
He paused, then continued: “And you just mentioned that there will be no sturdy black jackals in the Jackal Valley for a short time. It can be expected that the price of this thing will skyrocket in a short time.”
Ji Xiaoxi blinked, and subconsciously nodded and said, “Yes, not bad, what you said makes sense, but I didn’t expect this. I’m really sorry.”
Zuan was dumbfounded. Originally, I just wanted to test her, but she didn’t know that she actually apologized. This little girl really has a bit of a bun. Thinking of the appearance of genius doctor Ji, he couldn’t help but wonder, is it really his own?
“Well, I’ll buy it at 13 taels… Uh, no, 15 taels of silver, do you think it’s okay?” Ji Xiaoxi looked at him expectantly, “I only have this little money.”
Seeing her cautious look, Zu An couldn’t help expressing sympathy for the genius doctor Ji. What is the use of his so desperately earning money? A daughter with such a bun character will sooner or later be a cheap son-in-law.
“Okay, how much do you want to buy?” Zuan replied.
“Thank you!” A hint of surprise flashed in Ji Xiaoxi’s eyes, “I want to buy ten, will it be too much?”
“Not much, not much, these are all for you.” Zuan laughed, and handed over all the twelve dog treasures in the bag. Anyway, this thing was also used to pay for the consultation, and it was useless if it was too much.
Now a dozen taels of silver, with a total income of 150 taels of silver. If you remove 100 taels of registration fee, you still have a net profit of 50 taels. I wonder if the surname Ji will vomit blood if he knows it?
Ji Xiaoxi hurriedly waved her hand, her face flushed red: “No way, no way, I don’t have that much money to buy it.”
“The two more don’t need money, they are all given to you,” Zuan put his hand on her shoulder and said with a big grin, “Are we friends!”
“Really?” Ji Xiaoxi looked surprised and couldn’t help but said, “You are such a good person!”
“Don’t send a good person card casually.” Zuan looked depressed, just about to say something, and suddenly exclaimed, “Hey? I…why does my hand hurt so much?”
Ji Xiaoxi spit out her tongue: “Oh, I almost forgot, my dad put’salty pig hand ointment’ on my clothes, I’ll find an antidote for you.”
Zuan’s mind seemed to have a picture of genius doctor Ji bursting out laughing. No wonder that guy was relieved that his daughter would go into the mountains to collect medicine by herself, and he had taken precautions all over her body.
Ji Xiaoxi hurriedly took out a porcelain bottle from her small backpack and put it on his hand, took his hand to the front, blowing lightly with her small mouth, and then looked at him nervously: “Does it still hurt?”
Looking at the small face with big palms in front of him, Zu An couldn’t help but smile and said, “It was originally painful, but if you blow it, it doesn’t hurt anymore.”
Ji Xiaoxi’s face turned red all of a sudden, she couldn’t help but sipped: “Not serious~”
Zuan couldn’t help sighing: “Xiaoxi, are you so good to everyone? If you meet other bad men, you will suffer.”
Ji Xiaoxi replied subconsciously: “I won’t let a man touch my body, you are different from a normal man.”
Zuan: “…”
Does feeling treat me like a sister? It’s a pity that the keyboard can’t collect your own anger score, otherwise this time it will definitely burst.
Ji Xiaoxi also realized that there was a problem with what she said, and hurriedly apologized: “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that, I…”
Seeing her look anxious and not knowing how to explain, Zuan gently touched her head: “Don’t worry, we are friends, I don’t mind.”
Since you are regarded as sisters, you have to make good use of this advantage. In the past life, not many scumbags pretended to be gay, and then approached female girlfriends, and then shared the same bed and developed bed sheets.
Bah, who is a scumbag, it’s not me anyway!
While Zuan was wandering around, he suddenly noticed that Ji Xiaoxi looked at herself with a very sympathetic look: “That…there is powder on my hair…”
Zuan looked at his hands that were swollen like black steamed buns, and couldn’t help crying without tears: Didn’t you just take a shower?
…
On the way back to the city, a pair of boys and girls were walking on the mountain path. The girl suddenly approached the boy in the middle, but the boy jumped aside as if burned by the fire.
“Don’t suffer from Laozi!” Zu An stared at the girl opposite with a wary look.
Ji Xiaoxi looked apologetic, and Xiaozui murmured aggrievedly: “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it just now.”
Zuan also knows that she just took the blame, and it makes no sense to blame her: “It’s OK, you have nothing to be sorry. After all, it is my own problem. By the way, the piece you made when you were in the water before. How did the water curtain do it?”
When he came to this world, he was eager for all kinds of spiritual knowledge like a sponge to absorb water.
Ji Xiaoxi’s eyes widened: “Are you peeking at me at the time?”
Zu An’s heart jumped, forgetting this, and hurriedly said: “I just haven’t heard you say it. You are a little worried, so you opened your eyes slightly. Don’t worry, I haven’t seen anything. You are not using water. Is the curtain covered.”
Ji Xiaoxi nodded suspiciously, and then replied: “A third-rank practitioner can release his vitality for a short distance, forming armor, air walls, etc. within three feet of the surroundings. My water curtain is the same principle.”
“So that’s the case.” Zuan gradually understood. It seems that the second-grade is to make the skin tougher, and the third-grade is able to release true energy. I don’t know what effect higher levels will have.
Ji Xiaoxi suddenly stopped, turning her ears as if listening: “Did you hear anything, Brother Grandpa?”
“What?” Zuan asked, why didn’t he hear anything?
“There is the sound of fighting.” Ji Xiaoxi’s delicate eyebrows wrinkled, obviously she didn’t like this kind of fighting.
“Let’s go.” Zuan subconsciously wanted to run. If he is a big guy, he doesn’t mind running over and pretending to be forceful, but now any little girl has a higher cultivation base than him, which proves that this world is too sinister, he still It’s better to keep a low profile.
Gou is the king in the end!
“Let’s go take a look, maybe someone needs treatment.” Ji Xiaoxi grabbed him, but the eyes that had been weak before were now a little more determined.
Noting her pure eyes, Zu An’s heart softened: “Okay, but if it’s too dangerous later, don’t blame me for running. By the way, you don’t have poison on your hands, right?”
“Don’t worry, it’s not poisonous.” Seeing his promise, Ji Xiaoxi smiled like crescent moons.
The two followed the sound of fighting, and in another valley they found that a convoy was being besieged by a group of men in black. The convoy’s guards were trying hard to resist the siege of the men in black, but the group of men in black was more numerous. Moreover, it can be seen that the strength is not bad, the tricks are extremely fierce, and many of the team’s guards have fallen in a pool of blood.
It is only a matter of time before the few remaining are resolved.
Zuan noticed that the guards were all dressed in white, with gold silk embroidered on the cuffs of their plackets, and they looked handsome and upright.
“Nyima is really luxurious, the clothes of the guards are so luxurious.” Zuan subconsciously glanced at his crude clothes, and felt a little bit angry. Compared with them, these talents are like the uncles in the duke’s mansion. How am I special? Just like a guard!
“But what’s the point of being well-dressed, they are all silver-like pewter tips.” Zuan noticed that they were retreating steadily, and this was a little more balanced in his heart.
“It’s a person from Heifengzhai!” Ji Xiaoxi exclaimed in a low voice. Although she was kind and innocent, she was not stupid. She didn’t rush out recklessly when she came. Instead, she was pulling Zuan and hiding behind the grass in the distance to observe.
Now that the overall situation has been determined below, and rushing out is just to die for nothing, but seeing the people below being killed, she is also extremely conflicted.
“Heifengzhai? Such a name for soy sauce, this cottage is destined to be a role that can’t be on the table.” Zu An couldn’t help but vomit.
“Not so,” Ji Xiaoxi shook her head with a solemn expression, “Heifengzhai is a band of thieves established by the thief Chen Xuan. These people are cruel and have a good cultivation base. They have been robbing and killing each other outside the city for these years. Merchants, I don’t know how many people died in their hands.”
Zu’an couldn’t help asking: “Then why don’t you send soldiers to destroy them? So many masters in the city, are they just letting them behave like this?”
Judging from the information previously learned, most of the high-end military forces in this world are officially compiled, so even the official force of a city is definitely not something that these bandits can contend.
Ji Xiaoxi explained: “Duke Chu and City Master Xie don’t know how many soldiers and horses they have been sent to destroy them. If the number of people is small, they will be eaten by them; if there are too many people, they will hide in the mountains and disappear; they will not reappear until the soldiers and horses in the city are evacuated, so it has always been a serious concern for Mingyue City.”
Zuan couldn’t help but complain about the incompetence of the Chu family. When he was in the Chu family, those people were coaxing and coaxing, but he didn’t expect that even a bandit would not be able to deal with it.
Suddenly he realized something, and asked: “Can the people in Heifengzhai successfully avoid the bandits of the bandits every time?” After getting confirmation, he couldn’t help but sighed: “There must be an internal response in this posture city and their internal and external cooperation. Ah.”
Ji Xiaoxi nodded: “Brother Grandpa, you are so smart, and my father said so too.”
The sloppy and drunk middle-aged man who is greedy for money and loves to read the Eighteen Forbidden albums appeared in Zu An’s mind. It is really hard to imagine him analyzing things seriously.
“Madam, let’s hold them, you go!” A white-clothed guard said to the carriage behind him while responding to the enemy.
