Chapter 43: Sighing at
the sight of Xiao Bai's handsome face, Mu Yun inexplicably recalled Yu Hu's words last night and felt so sick...
My face is just a little hot.
After resuming her pastoral female cultivation persona, the pretty girl looked proud and pouted, "Do you think I will still fall for your trick? If you learn it and surpass me immediately, what will I eat?"
Xiao Bai realized that the girl had already realized it, and began to coax her more vigorously: "It's not that I'm good at physical training, but Senior Sister taught me well. When I learn how to grow herbs, I can help Senior Sister to take care of the herb garden. Then you can sit by the lake and fish. Isn't that wonderful?"
"It's not beautiful, go away."
Mu Yun didn't buy Xiao Bai's tricks at all.
Xiao Bai thought about it and it made sense. In his previous life, he had never seen a girl who liked fishing.
So he switched to a higher-level tactic.
"I think that Senior Sister's medicine-growing skills are still flawed, which has slowed down the elder's progress in refining medicine."
"What did you say!"
The girl suddenly turned her head and stared at Xiao Bai. Her arrogant eyes became sharp, reminding Xiao Bai of the witch who was filled with darkness last night.
Xiao Bai, who had a modifier by his side, was not afraid at all when facing the witch.
"I say, your medicine-growing skills still have room for improvement."
Sure enough, the girl's eyes softened, she put down the work in her hands, and said seriously: "Then tell me what I am not good at?"
Xiao Bai:
"You teach me how to farm first."
Mu Yun:
"You can't even farm, how do you know I can't do it?"
Xiao Bai:
"If you teach me how to farm, I will know."
Mu Yun:
"How do you know something you don't know?"
The two were caught in the logic of the egg cycle...
There was no choice but to continue to increase the bet.
"For example, growing medicine in greenhouses, grafting medicinal fruits, genetically modified medicinal materials... If your ability to grow medicine is sophisticated enough, you don't even need pills!"
Greenhouse, grafting, genetic modification... Mu Yun was confused, but Xiao Bai was right about one thing -
The highest level of growing medicine is that you no longer need elixirs, and the effect of elixirs can be achieved by simply combining fresh herbs.
Long illness makes a good doctor. As a witch, Mu Yun is among the top three or even the best medicine grower in Xueyan Sect, but she is still quite a distance away from the highest level.
Especially the more I learn, the farther I realize the distance is, the more out of reach it is, and it is beyond human power.
So much so that after she got the job, she spent most of her time farming on the top of the mountain, and only occasionally went out to kill corrupt officials.
If Xiao Bai really has an absolute talent for learning and can surpass her quickly, maybe he can really help her! Thinking of this, the girl stood up and put her hair, which had become messy due to bending over and the mountain wind, behind her ears.
Revealing a girl's face that looks like first love.
"Okay, the art of growing medicine is profound and extensive. It's not like the three punches and two kicks of physical training. You have a lot to learn."
Xiao Bai accomplished his goal. What he wanted was the effect of learning complex knowledge slowly.
Otherwise, how can we improve our relationship? "Thank you, Senior Sister."
In this way, Xiao Bai followed Mu Yun to learn how to cultivate medicinal plants and identify wild plants.
"This is the Tears of Cold Flame, a specialty of the Snow Flame Sect. When the temperature alternates between warm and hot, the grass dew will not stop."
"This is Star Aniseed Ice Grass. Don't be misled by its name. It needs to be watered with warm water and washed repeatedly to obtain better quality."
"This is a five-petal fairy orchid..."
The girl introduced it patiently, as if time had not passed.
Suddenly, Xiao Bai saw an unusual plant with black and red flowers.
"What's this?"
In the center of the purple and red medicinal bed, a medicinal plant with black leaves and red flowers is particularly eye-catching.
The dense black ring-shaped textures on the petals look a bit creepy, like the enlarged pupils of a person before death...
Mu Yun's face darkened and he quickly destroyed the flower and put it into his medicine bag.
"This is poison. Master always likes to tinker with these things."
“I understand.”
Xiao Bai nodded.
You know my sister, he knew it the last time he did remote sensing that this was clearly the poison that could suppress the witch's magic.
Unexpectedly, this witch is a master at passing the buck! Just as Mu Yun said, the art of growing medicine is extensive and profound, and there are too many details to learn. Xiao Bai studied for a long time but didn't see the full-level skill prompt pop up.
The demon woman was cold and her self-control was even stronger than Yu Hu's, and their relationship did not warm up for a long time.
Xiao Bai looked at the silk and sighed, following closely.
…
noon.
Three disciples wearing the blue robes of the Discipline Hall came to Baicao Peak with swords.
The leader was a tall and thin man with a long dark face, yellow eagle eyes, a sword hanging from his waist, and a serious expression. He was the chief officer of the Discipline Hall.
Zhang Yufeng.
This time, when he saw Xiao Bai, Zhang Yufeng was much more respectful. He bowed and said:
"Uncle Xiao, Junior Sister Mu Yun."
Xiao Bai raised an eyebrow and glanced at him.
I still remember the last time, this guy forced me to sign the wrong case closing report, confirming that the murderer was Zhao Hanwu, so as to prevent him from continuing the investigation.
From this we can see that the Discipline Hall is indeed the Taoist Alliance's lackey, serving them at their beck and call and being very loyal.
Thinking of this, Xiao Bai curled his lips and said indifferently: "I hope it's good news this time."
“It is indeed good news.”
Zhang Yufeng nodded, and then took out a silver and gold-embossed invitation letter from the Taoist Alliance.
"In view of the talent for swordsmanship that Master Uncle showed during the sect inspection ceremony, the Dao Alliance invites you to serve as a supervisor in the Dao Palace. I hope Master Uncle does not mind."
Xiao Bai suddenly felt a little confused and needed to think it over carefully.
The Chief of Police is the head of the police force under the Taoist Alliance, whose power overrides that of the country and the sect.
If the inspectors find that there is something wrong with you, they can arrest you and take you to the Taoist Alliance for investigation with just an official document. Neither the imperial court nor the sect has the right to interfere.
For example, Yijianhu, the chief disciple of Baicao Peak, was assigned the position of prisoner in the Taoist Alliance after leaving Xueyan Sect.
The prison guards belong to the Prison Department and are theoretically directly managed by the local prison governor.
But when it comes to actually carrying out the mission, they are usually divided into two teams, led by the Regent of the Emperor and the Regent of the State.
Xiao Bai was determined to kill Qi Shan! Now he was helping him? Not possible.
Furthermore, what if Qi Shan deliberately lured him to the Jiandao Palace to frame him? Not only Xiao Bai thought so, Mu Yun also secretly stepped on Xiao Bai's feet in the medicine garden.
Xiao Bai waved at Zhang Yufeng.
"I have only just started to cultivate my Qi, so it is difficult for me to take on this important task. Please ask the Sect Supervisor to find someone else who can help me."
Zhang Yufeng's face darkened and he continued to persuade:
"The Dao Alliance will not only grant you a high salary, but will also devote all its resources to help you advance. Moreover, you are not required to live in the Dao Palace. Xueyan Sect is only 800 miles away from Chaoge City. Even if you only have Qi Refining skills, it will take less than an hour to fly back and forth on a sword."
The more Xiao Bai talked, the more suspicious he felt, so he just turned away and sent the guest away.
"If you don't want to do it, then you don't want to do it. Zhang Zhijie, please go back."
Zhang Yufeng smiled and took out a piece of official document from his arms.
"The Dao League has issued orders many times, asking Uncle Master to go to the Dao Palace to check if he has been possessed. It was the head of the sect who stopped him for you. If Uncle Master insists on refusing the invitation this time - here is a one-star Dao League order."
Xiao Bai understood the significance of the One Star Dao Alliance Order...
It seems that the one with ulterior motives is the Taoist Alliance!
However, if you can pass this hurdle and take the opportunity to infiltrate the Taoist Alliance, you can embark on the path of ascension by subduing demons and monsters.
He took the document and sent the guest away in a cold voice.
"I'll think about it."
