Chapter 125 This is interesting
"Little fox!" Qian Zexi gave Yun Xiang a thumbs up.
Phew! Yun Xiang breathed a sigh of relief. This Bian family master was really suspicious. He probably hadn't noticed her just now. Qian Zexi didn't talk to her for long, lest Bian Qin come back to attack him. Being entangled with that woman was very troublesome.
After the banquet that night, Yun Xiang sat on the bed alone and sorted out the clues. When he thought of the key point, he suddenly remembered Lu Dao and Bian Linlin.
Why did Bian Linlin choose the orientation party for her blind date? One on Mercury, the other on the Sky, so far apart, how did these two connect? Who brought them here? They must be related.
Is it necessary to hide a blind date from public view? Could it be that Bian Qin doesn't allow her daughter to pursue a romantic relationship? I'm afraid it's not that simple.
When the Bian family was choosing a patriarch, Bian Linlin found Lu Lu. Lu Lu could be considered Bai Mingyang's military advisor, so Bian Linlin could get Bai Mingyang's support. This made sense, but it was only reasonable. Perhaps there were other reasons.
"Good news, good news!" Shi Qixuan took a few gulps of the water on the table. "The school is organizing a trip to the wild to collect seeds and saplings."
"A lot of people?"
"Well, the growers from the planting base are also participating, and most importantly, Bian Qin is also going."
"Wow, this is interesting."
"Who said it wasn't? We have to prepare well."
"Yeah. Have you set a time?"
"No, but it's just for a few days. Go back to your room and pack your things."
"Okay!" Yun Xiang was the first to check the vitality boxes. There were still quite a few, so he decided to make another batch. It was said that there were many species in the wild, so he would make sure there were not enough when the time came.
Only half of the liquefied flame stored in the banyan thorn core remained. Yun Xiang made three Explosive Flame Talismans and stopped. The Ice Blade still had two full cores, so he could start working on them. However, making Ice Talismans was complex and difficult, so Yun Xiang made six and stopped.
The energy-gathering talisman made from the purple heart fruit core was intact. Yun Xiang did not replenish it and focused on dealing with the Nine Heavens Thunder Wood.
The Nine Heavens Thunderwood was stored in a special box, so no electricity escaped. Yun Xiang took out the insulating gloves he had bought from Star Network and began to handle it. Unexpectedly, as soon as he grasped them, he was shocked. "Hiss!" "Where's the insulation?"
"Hiss!" "Ugh..." If only there were still electric eels! Unfortunately, they were all used up when I took the Nine Heavens Thunder Wood. Yun Xiang tried a few times, and the gloves did work, but they couldn't completely block out the damage.
She took out a small electric saw and just put it on the wood, "whoosh!", the electric saw hit the current on the wood. Due to the high voltage, the electric saw was not only deformed but also burnt.
Yun Xiang was confused by this sudden change. It was the first time she encountered this. She changed the electric saw and carefully avoided the electric current. "Hiss-", no, the current was flowing too fast, and there was more than one line, so she could not stop it at all.
Yun Xiang had no choice but to change to an axe and chop it down one by one. Fortunately, the wood she was using was not very thick and could be chopped off in a dozen strokes. After chopping it into small pieces, she struck while the iron was hot and split it in half, then changed tools to grind it.
After she finished processing the wood, it was already dark. She didn't plan to go to the cafeteria. She drank a nutritional supplement and decided to work hard until dawn. Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. After carving a few strokes, the carving knife hit the current and was damaged. She planned to stay overnight and went to bed within an hour.
The next morning, just after daybreak, she hurried to buy a carving knife, skipping the intermediate ones and going straight for the high-end ones. Fortunately, carving was popular on Cang Qiong Star, and the carving knives were not only complete, high-quality, but also reasonably priced. Of course, this did not include the high-end ones. Everything related to high-end, no matter what, was extremely expensive.
Yun Xiang bought ten sets in one go, a considerable sum. She wasn't short of money now, so aside from the pain, she didn't feel any embarrassment. As soon as she got back to the dorm, Shi Qixuan told her that she was off from today and that she should prepare her things for the mission, which would leave in three days.
Time was too tight, so Yun Xiang didn't chat with Shi Qixuan and went straight back to his room to carve.
Her progress was not fast. Although the carving knife could hold its ground, it was not completely immune. If she was not careful, it would be damaged by a few collisions. What was more fatal was that her hands would shake at the first collision, and when her hands shook, the rune would break and the entire rune would be scrapped.
For the entire morning, Yun Xiang only made a thunder-attribute talisman, a thunder explosion talisman, a high-level talisman, and fully realized the importance of materials.
One talisman was definitely not enough, so she spent the entire afternoon making two more. Looking at the useless talismans on the ground, Yun Xiang couldn't bear to throw them away, so she put them all into her space.
At this moment, she suddenly thought of the wood that absorbed the lightning banyan thorns. Yun Xiang hurriedly took out a box. She had the foresight to set aside two boxes specifically to hold them when she took the Nine Heavens Thunder Wood.
The lightning absorbed by the banyan thorns became extremely docile, like a tamed animal. Apart from the numbness in my hands, I didn't feel any discomfort. I just didn't know how effective it was. It would be bad if it was greatly reduced.
Despite her worries, Yun Xiang immediately set to work carving. She started with the defensive charm, which she was best at. The charm had its own electric current, crackling and making a powerful sound. She sincerely hoped it would be the same when she encountered an enemy.
She also added water-condensing stones to the defensive talisman. Initially, she was worried that the water shield wouldn't conduct electricity, but it unexpectedly also acquired lightning properties, which was quite magical. With the red flame sand and the four-leaf phoenix white tail, she carved an intermediate-level wind-attribute gale talisman, and combined it with the water-condensing stones to create the advanced gale talisman, the gale of violent storm.
She is proficient in using the banyan thorn, and the success rate of the high-level talismans made with it is two levels higher than before. Yun Xiang has prepared 5 of them.
Afterwards, she introduced the flame stone into the acceleration talisman and the haste talisman. When using it, it would have its own flames, like Nezha's wind-fire wheels, which was very cool.
After preparing all this, Yun wanted to take out a Lei Yan Grass. After studying it for a long time, he couldn't think of a use for it, so he simply took out the Rong Ling Grass and liquefied it first before making any plans.
Three days passed quickly. Before leaving, Yun Xiang gave some intermediate talismans to Shi Qixuan. The high-level talismans were too precious and not suitable for him. There were low-level talismans on the market, so there was no need for them. The intermediate talismans were neither high nor low, practical and affordable.
As expected, Shi Qixuan was very happy and shared some of the nutritious food and herbs she had bought with Yunxiang. When the two of them arrived at the meeting place, the hovercraft was almost full, so they had no choice but to take Patriarch Bian's private car.
I thought it was just the two of them, so I was worried. But when I got there, I realized the important people were all there, and there was also a little henchman, Feng Xuefeng. Bian Linlin didn't count; she was family.
Wait, what's going on with Lu? Looking at Lu, who looked relaxed and at ease sitting next to Qian Zexi, showing no sign of panic at being discovered by her, Yun Xiang immediately swallowed her surprise. The person involved was so composed, so she had to remain calm.
Yun Xiang walked past Qian Zexi and Lu Cheng without looking away, and took the seat behind them with Shi Qixuan. The hovercraft was eerily quiet.
"Everyone, don't be shy. Let's talk about our mission this time."
It's just collecting species, what's so great about it? Yun Xiang and Shi Qixuan glanced at each other and complained in unison that this opening line was too unskillful.
As expected, no one responded to her and there was another awkward silence.
