Chapter 25 Medicine
The beautiful woman who came out of the farmyard had surprise and strong vigilance in her eyes, as well as a hint of panic that she hid well.
No one thought too much about it. They were all carrying weapons, and their silver armor was stained with blood. Any normal person would be scared.
"Please rest assured, we have no ill intentions. We are just passing by here and would like to borrow this place to rest for a night. Of course, we will not shortchange you of your money."
After that, Tan Qiyuan took out five taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to the beautiful woman: "Please do us a favor. It would be even better if you can get us some wine and food to eat."
The beautiful woman took a look at the silver in Tan Qiyuan's hand, and her alert expression immediately turned into a smile: "Oh, I'm so sorry, but there are so many of you, and my small courtyard can't accommodate so many of you."
"It's okay. We can rest outside. You don't need to worry about it. Just let the people in the carriage go in and rest." Tan Qiyuan shook his head.
"In that case, please come in and rest." The beautiful woman greeted warmly, then turned back and shouted into the house, "Master, clean up two clean rooms for the guests to rest for a night."
The next moment, a burly man with a kitchen knife in his hand, a bald head and several scars on his face, and a ferocious look walked out of the yard.
Seeing the ferocious-looking man, everyone was slightly startled, and the silver-armored soldiers subconsciously tightened their weapons.
The man just looked up and glanced at everyone, without any other movement, he turned around with a cold look and walked towards the next house.
The beautiful woman turned around and smiled apologetically, saying softly, "Don't mind me. My master looks a little fierce and is not good at talking to people, but he has a good heart."
Tan Qiyuan waved his hand to signal everyone to relax, and then gave a few instructions to his assistant.
The moment their eyes met, Tan Qiyuan felt as if he was looking at a terrible and violent beast, which might pounce on them and bite them at any time.
That kind of look was definitely not what an ordinary farmer should have. He had only seen it in some extremely vicious people.
Tan Qiyuan felt that they had just escaped from the wolf's den, but accidentally entered the tiger's den.
But things have come to this point, and judging from Mo Ruyan's expression it is obvious that she is not suitable to continue traveling for a long time. She needs to have a good rest.
It's strange if you think about it carefully. How could a farmyard appear in such an uninhabited place?
Tan Qiyuan thought that he should calm them down first and then leave early tomorrow morning.
No matter who the other party is, as long as they don't attack them, there is no need for them to investigate the other party's past and add variables.
After the house was cleaned, Mo Ruyan got off the carriage with the help of her personal maid and went into the courtyard to rest.
Tan Qiyuan and others were guarding closely outside the house.
Yang Kuan crossed his hands, leaned against the carriage and closed his eyes to rest. He seemed to be resting peacefully, but in fact he was listening carefully to all directions and could not hide any movement from him.
As for Lai Yang, as usual, he would find a place to practice the Nine Heavens Big Dipper Sword whenever he had free time.
After practicing sporadically over the past few days, he felt that he had already touched the threshold of mastering the Nine Heavens Big Dipper Sword. With a few more times, he would be able to fully master that mysterious feeling.
As Lai Yang swung out his last sword move, he felt something in his mind shattered at this moment. At the same time, a strong and pure energy appeared between heaven and earth and quickly poured into his body, being completely refined and absorbed by his body.
boom!
Suddenly, a terrifying and vast aura burst out from Lai Yang's body, but he quickly suppressed it and calmed down in the blink of an eye.
Jiu Tian Bei Dou Sword, perfect!
Everyone was startled when they sensed the fleeting powerful aura, and subconsciously turned their heads to look.
Yang Kuan, who was leaning on the carriage, slowly opened his eyes. A slight fluctuation appeared in his eyes, which had always been as indifferent as water, and there was also a hint of excitement of seeing prey that was hidden deep inside.
In the farmyard, a bald man who was chopping bones to make soup paused for a moment, turned his head to look at the place where the breath burst out, and then continued his movements.
The thick bones were chopped up easily like tofu under his knife, and then all thrown into the boiling pot next to him, splashing hot water.
Not long after, a burly bald man and a beautiful woman came out carrying a large pot, and a rich aroma filled the air instantly.
There were many kinds of ingredients stewed in the big pot, including large bones, meat, vegetables grown in their own fields, both meat and vegetarian. It looked balanced and appetizing.
The beautiful woman looked at the soldiers of the Silver Armor Army with a gentle smile on her face: "It's cold, everyone, eat something to warm up your bodies. We don't have anything good to treat you. These are just some vegetables we grow ourselves and meat we hunt in the mountains."
All the Silver Armored Soldiers remained motionless, and Tan Qiyuan took the initiative to step forward: "Thank you."
"It's not easy to be away from home, and we can't help much. It's not a problem to prepare some food. I hope you don't mind." The beautiful woman smiled, "You can eat slowly, and call us if you need anything."
After the two returned to the house, Tan Qiyuan began to check the big pot of ingredients.
First they tested for poison, then tested whether anyone had drugged the person, and both were fine.
As the saying goes, it is better to be safe than sorry.
Besides, the man in the room didn't look like a good person at first glance.
At the same time, the couple came to the cellar where the wine jars were stored.
The beautiful woman looked at the wine jar on the ground, and subconsciously took out a few packets of medicine powder from her chest and was about to pour them into the wine.
However, at this moment, a hand reached out. The beautiful woman looked at the man in front of her in surprise and asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Boss?"
The bald man said in a deep voice, "They are the Silver Armor Army, from the Northern Frontier City Wuwang Mansion. They are quite powerful. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you once they start fighting. And they don't look like they are coming for us. Let's not make things complicated. Let them rest for a night and then leave."
"Well, I'll listen to you."
After hearing what the bald man said, the beautiful woman did not insist any longer and silently took the powder back.
Then, the two men walked out of the cellar carrying three or four jars of wine.
"Come, let's drink some homemade wine to warm ourselves up."
Tan Qiyuan didn't hesitate to open the cork, and a rich aroma of wine spread out.
Those who loved wine were all greedy and watched eagerly, but they did not act rashly.
"Good wine. We would like to thank the host for the hospitality."
Tan Qiyuan said this to his wife and also to his soldiers.
There is no problem with the food or the wine, you can eat with confidence.
"As long as you like it."
At this moment, Mo Ruyan's personal maid came out, looked at the beautiful woman and said, "Can you prepare some hot water?"
"But you want to take a bath? Let's go and boil some water."
"Thank you for your help."
