Chapter 404 Is there a quick way?
Gu Xiaoxi followed the old clan leader Quan into the inner room, and the clan leader Quan moved a small wooden box onto the table.
When I opened the box, I found a lot of books inside, all written in unfamiliar words.
"Xiaoxi, you read a lot, look at what books these are.
This was discovered by Xiao Mu, and I told him to keep it secret and bring it back secretly." Clan leader Quan told Gu Xiaoxi about the situation.
Gu Xiaoxi recognized the words on it. She opened one of the books and found some very strange prescriptions recorded on it.
"This is a medical book. It records some strange prescriptions that I have never seen before." She was sure that the book she was reading was a medical book.
When he heard it was a medical book, the old patriarch Quan said with a smile: "Since it is a medical book, you can take it back. We can't understand the words on it anyway."
"Thank you very much, Patriarch Quan." Gu Xiaoxi did not refuse and put the box away. The two of them talked about the way to Medicine City.
When he heard that it would take two days, Patriarch Quan didn't give it much thought.
If it takes too long, they will be in more danger. He doesn't want to go unless it is necessary.
Seeing that Patriarch Quan was not very interested in that road, Gu Xiaoxi handed the drawn blueprint to Patriarch Quan and returned to his residence with the box.
She stayed in the village that day. Fearing that the scar-faced man might do something else, she went to the river to dig herbs for several days.
On the fifth day, Gu Xiaoxi said goodbye to all the old clan leaders and left the mountain.
The next day after returning home, she fell ill.
Ying San thought that Gu Xiaoxi fell ill because she was too tired during this period. He ordered Qiu Shuang to take good care of the girl and not let her do anything in the next few days.
Gu Xiaoxi lay in bed at home for two days, but on the third day she could no longer lie down.
Early in the morning, Ma Weiwei and Chen Qinian were taken to the mountains to practice spells and to test what they had learned before.
It turned out that Chen Qinian was more sensitive to talismans and learned faster than Ma Weiwei.
Gu Xiaoxi didn't find it strange either, as everyone has their strengths.
Ma Weiwei has a good foundation in martial arts, and can basically learn something at the first sight. In comparison, Chen Qinian is a little worse.
It was also because of this that Chen Qinian sometimes felt inferior to Ma Weiwei. The more thoughts he had in his mind, the greater the gap between them.
"Qinian, you have a good understanding of talismans. You can develop more in this area in the future." Gu Xiaoxi said.
Chen Qinian was delighted after hearing this.
Ma Weiwei rolled her eyes at him. Even if Sister Xiaoxi hadn't said it, she could feel the gap between them.
"Master, is there any quick way?" she asked.
Gu Xiaoxi shook her head: "This line of work depends entirely on talent, but hard work can make up for lack of talent. You can spend more time practicing.
However, your martial arts skills are quite good, and you two complement each other. If you encounter a powerful person when you return to the imperial capital, you should be able to escape."
"Master, I want to rely on myself!" They both said almost in unison.
Gu Xiaoxi...
You seem a little angry, but don’t know what to say?
They had always been sleeping in the same bed but having different dreams, and in recent days, she found that Ma Weiwei was not as close to Chen Qinian as before.
"Then you should spend more time practicing the part you are not good at. Although you may not be able to beat the other party, you will be stronger than you are now." She stopped talking after she said this to prevent the two guys from having wild thoughts.
"Yes!" The two responded in unison.
After giving them the instructions, Gu Xiaoxi let them move freely while she went into the woods to hunt some prey so that they wouldn't return empty-handed.
snort!
Chen Qinian and Ma Weiwei snorted coldly at each other, turned around and left.
Gu Xiaoxi was too lazy to care about so many things and started to get busy after entering the woods.
The three of them had roasted rabbit for lunch. After lunch, two of them continued to practice, and she went into the woods again.
It was not until the sun had just set that the master and his two disciples went down the mountain and returned to the village.
At this time, the shops outside the village also began to close.
Ying San saw Gu Xiaoxi coming back and walked over to him and whispered, "Scarface and his gang passed by the road today. I wonder where they were going?"
"Are they heading towards the border town?" Gu Xiaoxi muttered.
"It's very likely so." Ying San also guessed so.
Gu Xiaoxi had an idea in mind and took his two disciples back to the manor first.
After the people outside had finished cleaning up, they each went back to their own small courtyard to eat.
They now have dinner together for a few days every month, and usually each family goes back to their own yard.
It’s understandable that cooking is tiring because there are too many people eating together.
Gu Xiaoxi threw the prey into the yard and asked Dashun to clean it up and then send some to each family.
We had dry pot rabbit meat for dinner. Since there were many people at home, we divided the table into two.
Those who drink sit at one table, and those who don’t drink sit at another table.
The dry pot rabbit meat was so delicious that everyone couldn't help but drink a few more sips of wine.
The wine was brewed by Gu Xiaoxi who taught Gu Nanming and the others. There was fruit wine and ordinary rice wine.
Girls prefer fruit wine, while men drink more rice wine, which sells well in the store.
Some people who often drive sports cars nearby will come here specifically to buy some to take home.
So in addition to growing medicinal herbs every year, wine is also a big source of income.
"Xiaoxi, a lot of people have placed orders for our wine recently. I'm wondering whether I should brew more?" Gu Nanming was a little conflicted, fearing that if he brewed too much, it would be difficult to sell.
"Then brew more. After all, the longer the wine is stored, the better it tastes. Even if we can't sell it all this year, we can still sell it next year." Gu Xiaoxi thought it wouldn't matter if he brewed more of this kind of stuff that didn't spoil easily. At worst, he could let the robot pretend to be a businessman and buy it and store it in the space.
Hearing that his sister supported him, Gu Nanming became more motivated.
In fact, even if no one works, their family can still have enough food and clothing.
However, seeing how motivated everyone was, Gu Xiaoxi didn't want to interrupt their enthusiasm.
As she ate and listened to everyone chattering about what had happened during the day, her appetite improved a lot.
After dinner, she played with her two daughters in the yard, while Gu Feng and Ying San practiced sword dancing in the open space outside.
Gu Feng's swordsmanship has improved recently, so he wants to press on and practice with Shadow Three or Shadow Four every night.
"Mom, my brother has become addicted to swordsmanship recently. He practices until very late at night and doesn't go to bed." Ruixue told her mother about this.
After hearing this, Gu Xiaoxi smiled slightly and said, "This is your elder brother's persistence. Sometimes you need this kind of persistence to learn skills."
Um!
Ruixue and Bingxue nodded repeatedly.
About half an hour later, Gu Xiaoxi brought her two daughters out of the yard to see how advanced Gu Feng's swordsmanship was.
This set of sword techniques was taught by their master before, and she taught it to the three brothers and sisters.
The two daughters are young, but they dance very well.
But, Gu Feng didn't know what was going on. He couldn't grasp the key points.
Ying San and Ying Si watched Gu Feng dance with the sword from the side, both of them frowning.
