Chu Chenzi wasn't particularly surprised to hear Huo Qiqi's words. He knew the magical powers of the Destiny Man. He smiled and said calmly, "Comrade Huo, I told you we're not enemies. If you're interested in that little bottle, I can give it to you."
Huo Qiqi smiled, shook her head firmly, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Senior. Your little bottle is of little use to me. Besides, I won't take away someone else's love. Thank you very much."
This time, after following Xiao Li here, Huo Qiqi's understanding of this parallel world has undergone a significant change. According to the novels she read before traveling through time, there are cultivators here, and the strength of Chu Chenzi in front of her should be that of a heavenly-level ancient warrior or above.
However, all this is of no interest to Huo Qiqi at the moment. After all, according to the system, if she cannot become the richest person in this world, she will always be excluded by this world. It seems that it is time to find an opportunity to go to the place that Qiu mentioned and look for the treasure map.
Looking at Huo Qiqi's receding figure, the complex emotions in Chu Chenzi's eyes became more and more intense. She was right. The people of destiny in this generation were indeed extraordinary.
Early the next morning, except for Xiao Liuzi, who was the most seriously injured and could not get out of bed, everyone else had almost recovered. At Xiao Li's urging, everyone came to the dining table.
After seeing the food on the table, everyone opened their mouths in surprise and looked at Xiao Li in confusion. Qinghe smiled and said, "Junior Sister, what's wrong today? Why are there so many delicious foods on the table? I know this one, it's called braised pork, and I also know this one, it's called sweet and sour spare ribs. Oh my god, there's even milk. Am I dreaming?"
Seeing Qinghe looking like he had never seen the world before, Xiaoli rolled his eyes at him and said with a smile, "Brother Qinghe, don't be so surprised. These are all brought by Qiqi, and we should thank her. But I'm surprised that you actually know these things. Tell me the truth, did you sneak down the mountain and eat them all by yourself?"
After hearing Xiao Li's words, Qing He was like a cat whose tail was stepped on. He jumped up and down, "Junior Sister, please don't frame me. I am your best senior brother. Besides, when did I go to the town to eat?"
Qingshan curled his lips, looked at Qinghe with disdain, and said, "Qinghe, you are so smart in front of me, but how come you appear so stupid in front of Junior Sister? What you just said is a confession."
Qingshan rubbed his head and said to everyone embarrassedly, "It happened only once. That time, when I followed my master down the mountain to do some work, I took advantage of the time when my master was working and sneaked out alone to eat at a state-owned restaurant. That was the only time. I'm not lying to you."
After playing and laughing for a while, everyone found their seats and sat down. Huo Qiqi naturally sat between Xiao Li and her senior sister.
Qinghe counted the people around the table and said in confusion, "Xiao Liuzi is lying in bed and can't come. I understand, but where's the master? There are so many delicious foods here, why didn't he come? Where did the master go?"
Hearing everyone's questions, Qingshan rubbed his nose and said embarrassedly, "You don't know, Master got a bottle of ginseng wine from somewhere yesterday and was sleeping soundly in the room. It's really embarrassing."
Huo Qiqi didn't expect that it was her ginseng wine that caused the trouble. When Xiao Li heard about ginseng wine, she knew what was going on. She said to everyone, "Let's get started. Master and Xiao Liuzi have reserved some dishes. Let's ignore that big liar master for now and eat quickly. Mm, this braised pork is so delicious."
After everyone saw Xiao Fang start eating, they also picked up their chopsticks. Ten minutes later, everyone patted their stomachs in satisfaction. The eldest brother Qingshan said, "We are so full this time. Thank you Miss Huo. If you hadn't come here, we wouldn't have this delicious meal. And you brought so many things. Thank you so much."
At the signal of everyone, the eldest brother opened the package behind him. After opening it, there were two very rustic boxes inside. After seeing the boxes, Huo Qiqi knew that there must be precious medicinal materials inside.
As Huo Qiqi had guessed, Senior Brother Qingshan smiled and said, "Miss Huo, first of all, I want to thank you for saving us yesterday, and thank you again for bringing us so much food. The things in the box are just a little token of our appreciation. They're nothing special, just two 120-year-old ginsengs. I hope you don't mind them."
Huo Qiqi didn't want to accept the ginseng, but Xiao Li kept winking at her and desperately tugging at her clothes. Huo Qiqi knew what Xiao Li meant and said with a smile, "Thank you, Senior Brother Qingshan."
After seeing Huo Qiqi accept the things, everyone's faces became happy. Xiao Li took Huo Qiqi's hand and said, "Qiqi, let me take you for a walk in the mountains. It's quite fun here."
Huo Qiqi thought for a moment and said with some embarrassment, "Xiao Li, I'm feeling a little unwell today. I'd like to rest in my room instead of wandering around. How about I go with you tomorrow and have a good stroll?"
Hearing Huo Qiqi say this, Xiao Li said nervously, "Qiqi, are you okay? This is your first time in the mountains, and it's quite cold at night. You must have caught a cold. I'll make you some ginger tea to warm you up. Go back to your room and have a good rest."
Huo Qiqi grabbed Xiao Li's arm and said with a smile, "Xiao Li, you don't have to make ginger tea for me. I brought some Western medicine with me when I came. I've already taken some cold medicine. A few hours of sleep will be enough. You can go and do your work first."
Seeing Huo Qiqi returning to the room alone, Xiao Li said worriedly, "Big Brother, please take a look. Is Qiqi okay?"
Senior Brother Qingshan looked at Huo Qiqi's back meaningfully, then smiled at Xiao Li and said, "Xiao Li, since Miss Huo needs to have a good rest, don't disturb her. Just focus on your own things."
After Qingshan finished speaking, he took the lead in clearing the table. Seeing Qingshan busy, Xiaoli stomped his feet in anger and said angrily, "Huh, doesn't it just mean a little bit of medical skills like looking, smelling, asking and palpating? I'm going to find my master now and ask him to teach me too."
Huo Qiqi returned to the room, made sure that no one was disturbing her, then slipped into the system space. The next second, she appeared outside the yard and headed towards Xipo Town.
Chu Chenzi, who was lying on the bed at this time, suddenly opened his eyes, looked in the direction where Huo Qiqi left, and said with a smile, "This little girl has a lot of secrets. Forget it, just ignore it and live the rest of my life well."
