"Young master, what's going on?"
Caught off guard by Chu Qinghe's sudden intervention, the tailor shop owner was completely bewildered, not understanding what he had done to offend Chu Qinghe.
Seeing the astonished and confused look on the tailor shop owner's face, Chu Qinghe smiled.
"Please don't misunderstand, shopkeeper. It's just that this item is special. I would like to trouble you to call the craftsman over so that I can personally oversee the sewing."
The black jade silkworm silk itself is special, so to be on the safe side, Chu Qinghe felt it was best to keep it under his watchful eye.
Upon hearing Chu Qinghe's request, the tailor shop owner was stunned for a moment before quickly realizing what was going on.
"Alright, please wait a moment, young master."
After saying this, the tailor shop owner instructed his servants to bring several craftsmen with their tools into the shop.
With his gaze fixed on the tailor shop owner beside him, who was greeting him as usual, Chu Qinghe maintained his warm and welcoming smile.
He took the tea offered by the tailor shop owner, sniffed it lightly, and then took a small sip.
A few breaths later, Chu Qinghe nodded to the smiling tailor shop owner beside him, but muttered to himself.
"Has nothing to do with those guys outside?"
At the same time, Chu Qinghe's hands, which were naturally hanging down and covered by his sleeves, also relaxed.
After placing his teacup on the table, Chu Qinghe asked the tailor shop owner, "May I ask, shopkeeper, where is the outhouse?"
"Oh, it's in the backyard. I'll take you there, young master."
As he spoke, the shopkeeper enthusiastically offered to personally lead Chu Qinghe to the outhouse.
Chu Qinghe politely declined and then headed towards the backyard on his own.
Upon reaching the backyard, Chu Qinghe lightly flicked his sleeves.
Then, the internal energy slowly began to circulate.
Strangely, as Chu Qinghe rapidly circulated his internal energy, the fluctuations of this internal energy began to appear and disappear intermittently.
In just a few breaths, no internal energy fluctuations could be detected within Chu Qinghe's body.
Facing the completely concealed fluctuations of his internal energy, Chu Qinghe also had a slight smile on his lips.
Therefore, choices are sometimes very important.
Just like Chu Qinghe, when he chose this secondary position, he decisively chose the master-level medical skills.
This master-level medical skill, along with the accompanying master-level poison skills, provided considerable assistance to Chu Qinghe in both his work and daily life.
In terms of value alone, it is even superior to my current Heaven-rank superior-grade "Innate Body-Breaking Formless Sword Qi".
Once the fluctuations of his internal energy were completely concealed, Chu Qinghe scanned his surroundings to make sure no one was around. Only then did the sword energy burst forth from his feet, propelling his body upwards and allowing him to leap over the backyard wall.
After entering the alley outside the wall, Chu Qinghe's speed increased dramatically as he rushed out of the alley in the backyard.
A few dozen breaths later, Chu Qinghe moved swiftly, and after circling around several streets, he arrived at the street entrance where the tailor shop was located from another street.
With a slight lift of his eyes, Chu Qinghe's gaze fell upon the restaurant less than five zhang away from the tailor shop.
On the second floor, several women dressed in long dresses and wearing veils were seen.
"So it was them?"
Chu Qinghe originally thought it was another incident similar to what happened at Li Dequan's shop, which is why he came out specifically to find out the truth.
But after all this commotion, he discovered that the people following him were actually the same disciples from the Divine Water Palace from before.
After confirming the other party's identity, Chu Qinghe immediately pursed his lips, suddenly feeling that all his efforts had been in vain.
However, at least he knew who had been following him all day, which put Chu Qinghe at ease to some extent.
After gently shaking his head, Chu Qinghe turned around and circled back to the backyard of the tailor shop.
When they returned to the shop, there were now several more people behind the tailor shop owner.
Each of them had obvious calluses on their hands, clearly indicating that they were tailors and craftsmen who had been assigned to the job.
When Chu Qinghe returned, the tailor shop owner greeted him again.
“Young master, these are some of the best craftsmen in my shop, the best even in the entire Yushui City.”
After glancing at the wooden box containing the black jade silkworm silk, Chu Qinghe politely nodded to the craftsmen.
Then he asked the tailor shop owner for a basin of clean water.
Although he was puzzled, a basin of water was not a big deal, so the shopkeeper casually made the arrangement.
While waiting, Chu Qinghe suddenly spoke up: "I suddenly remembered that I have some things to do and I'm in a bit of a hurry. I think half an hour should be enough to get everything I need done."
Upon seeing the gold Chu Qinghe had placed on the table, the tailor's eyes lit up. "That's enough. It's just sewing. Half an hour will suffice."
Only after receiving the tailor shop owner's assurance did Chu Qinghe nod.
Before long, a copper basin filled with clear water was placed on the table next to Chu Qinghe. Chu Qinghe reached out and picked up the black jade silkworm silk from the wooden box and put it into the copper basin.
As Chu Qinghe picked up all the black jade silkworm silk, a small, ordinary earthenware bottle about three inches in size was revealed underneath.
As the bottle poured out, some colorful powder, seemingly mixed with metal, was poured into it from the bottle opening.
After about one-fifth of the powder in the bottle had been poured out, Chu Qinghe resealed the bottle and put it in his pocket, then waited patiently.
