Chapter 256: Sour as Lemon
On a lively night, a group of people were talking incessantly until Yun Qimu said that she had obtained the Demon Refining Pot, and then they quieted down.
But the look in his eyes when he looked at her afterwards was full of passion, envy and jealousy.
The Demon Refining Pot and the Nuwa Stone, two artifact-level items, all fell into her hands. In addition, she had previously obtained a Pangu Axe, which was also an artifact-level item. Adding up, there are three items in total, which is so jealous that it makes people jealous.
Yuan An secretly looked at his third brother who was standing next to Yun Qimu. Just now, the people from Molan City said that in order to complete the Demon Refining Pot side quest, they needed to kill 10,000 giant beasts before 12 o'clock tonight. To achieve such a large number in such a short time was obviously not something that Village Chief Yun could do alone.
Although it is undeniable that Village Chief Yun is powerful and capable, he obviously doesn't believe that he could have been successful without the help of his third brother.
In addition, in order to avoid bad luck, the third brother teamed up with Village Chief Yun and left the final blow to Village Chief Yun to kill the monster. So the question is whether the third brother knew about the process of Village Chief Yun completing the side quest of making the Demon Refining Pot recognize its master?
He continued to look cautiously at his third brother's handsome face, which was popular among thousands of girls, as if looking for signs of anger. If Village Chief Yun really took advantage of his third brother, given his third brother's unyielding temper, he would definitely retaliate fiercely.
If these two people really get into a fight, will he help his third brother?
Yuan An's fat face wrinkled and he looked very distressed.
This is really a difficult choice. According to friendship, he should stand on the side of his third brother unswervingly, but Village Chief Yun is the village chief of the global village who provides them with food and clothing. It would be easy for him to make things difficult for them. In this case, he will have to suffer with his third brother.
His third brother is such a strong man that he can probably handle anything that happens, but he can't. He is just a simple little fat guy who only knows a little business and stocks some small commodities. Isn't he just cannon fodder when he is sandwiched between the two of them?
Yuan An suddenly shuddered and his fat face tensed. No, he had to go find Yunhe to have a good talk. Even if he had to be cannon fodder, he had to have a companion.
Yunhe patted his shoulder and asked suspiciously, "What are you thinking about? Your expression keeps changing, more colorful than a palette."
Yuan An turned his head to look at him, his eyes suddenly shining, then he held his hand and asked seriously, "Yunhe, are we still good brothers who drink wine together, eat meat together, and endure hardships together?"
"Ah, yes." Yunhe looked confused and nodded subconsciously.
Yuan An was so moved that his eyes welled up with tears, and he shouted, "Good brother, it's enough to have you as cannon fodder."
Yunhe:.
He scratched his head, wondering what was wrong with this fat guy's brain.
Simply brushing off the topic, Yunhe changed the subject and said mysteriously, "Did you see that low-key black thing around Third Brother's waist that looks like a sachet?"
"Ah" Yuan An responded hesitantly and subconsciously turned his head to look over. Sure enough, Wu Xingyu was wearing a small sachet around her waist.
This thing is usually worn by girls, but because it is black with gold embroidery, it looks low-key, luxurious and mysterious. It is also smaller than a girl's fist, so it doesn't look too out of place. But this doesn't change the fact that it is a sachet more suitable for girls.
According to his third brother's personality, it is impossible for him to wear such an ornament, but he hung it around his waist anyway.
He turned his head and looked at Yunhe, "Do you know something?"
Yunhe grinned, "Hehe."
He stretched out his hand and motioned Yuan An to put his ear over here.
Yuan An was also curious like a cat scratching, and obediently turned his ear to the side.
"I just asked my third brother secretly. That sachet is called the Qiankun Bag. It is an endless space where time stands still. It is also a magical object. However, our third brother is very low-key and didn't let me shout it out. Now only the two of us know about it."
Yuan An's eyes widened, and he was shocked. Are the magic weapons sold in wholesale? How come today there is a demon-refining pot and the Nuwa Stone? Now he tells him that his third brother also got a magic weapon. That's three at once. Do they really think they are picking up cabbages?
Yuan An cried with envy in his heart, but he no longer had to worry about the cannon fodder problem. Now that Village Chief Yun had obtained two magic weapons and his third brother had also obtained one, there should be no more trouble.
The global village is still their most reliable source of food and clothing.
Elsewhere, Tao Hongjing skillfully taught Pei Yu a lesson for reaching out and trying to touch his face. He used his eyes to repel the crowd that was aggressively watching him. Then, brushing off his clothes, he gracefully walked over to Yun Qimu and asked, "Village Chief Yun, can I gather some plants from around?"
Yun Qimu's eyes lit up, and he admired his dedication very much, but he still said, "Mr. Tao, why don't you take a break? It's already evening."
Tao Hongjing shook his head gently. "No need. I've been dormant for a long time, and now is the time when I'm full of energy."
Yun Qimu: "Since Mr. Tao insists, then let's go. However, there are many dangerous beasts here. I'm afraid it's not safe for Mr. Tao to go alone at night."
Hearing this, Tao Hongjing frowned slightly, and a hint of hesitation appeared between his calm brows, "This..."
"I'll accompany Mr. Tao." Wu Xingyu stood up, looking at Tao Hongjing with a pair of dark eyes, and said in a cold and serious voice.
"Ah? Aren't you tired?" Yun Qimu turned his head and looked at him in surprise, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
They had just been fighting monsters together intensively. Compared to herself, who basically only needed to deliver the final blow, Wu Xingyu's strength was much higher. She was worried that his body could not bear it.
Wu Xingyu's dark eyes looked at her, revealing a hint of joy. His voice, once as cold as winter, now turned into spring, much warmer. "It's okay. I have red medicine that can restore my strength."
After saying that, he pursed his lips and was silent for a while, then added, "Yuan An and Yun He are with me."
Seeing that he insisted, Yun Qimu didn't want to stop him. "Since you have made up your mind, then go ahead. I have some animal repellent incense here. It would be safer for you to take it with you."
Although the Demon Refining Pot is hers now, she cannot watch it all the time. Moreover, those giant beasts are manic and unconscious. Even if she has control over the Demon Refining Pot, she is completely unable to command them. Therefore, their safety depends on themselves.
At most, she could provide information on which direction had fewer beasts.
As for Wu Xingyu's plan, she also knew something about it. It was nothing more than following Tao Hongjing to get some information about the value of plants in advance so that it would be easier to do business in the future.
The timeliness of information is still very important in the minds of businessmen.
