Chapter 734 The Return of the Gods 18
Quan Jiu didn't say anything. Qiu Tang thought she was shy and spoke frankly.
"It's okay if you don't want to call me cousin Qiu. Brother Qiu, cousin, brother Qiu~ whatever sister Shen calls you, brother will love to hear it."
Quan Jiu: “…”
You can't hide your desire to hurt someone.
She moved her toes slightly, and the weight of the sword doubled, causing the sword to sink suddenly. Qiu Tang was caught off guard, and his body staggered, almost falling from the clouds.
Lan Xiu couldn't hear the conversation between the two, he just saw Qiu Tang almost fall over, and he did not hide his disgust.
"What's wrong? Did you get fat at the villa and can't fly anymore?"
Qiu Tang hurriedly stabilized the sword and rolled his eyes at him: "Get lost."
A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. Could it be that he hadn't flown a sword for too long and there was something wrong with his technique?
He didn't feel any fluctuations in spiritual power, so he didn't even think about Quan Jiu.
Ji Mingye stood beside Quan Jiuping, his dark pupils fell on her face, and finally there was a slight ripple in his eyes.
The seven people flew for a day and arrived at Floating Light City, which was closest to the Sunset Forest, at nightfall. They had no supplies with them and needed to purchase everything.
Lan Xiu divided the seven people into two teams, he, Liu Yao, and A Ci in one group; Qiu Tang, Quan Jiu, Ji Mingye, and Chao Ge in the other group.
Lan Xiu: "Let's meet at the inn later."
He took a special look at Quan Jiu: "Aye, this is Sister Shen's first time going out for training. She doesn't understand the treacherous nature of human nature. Please take good care of her."
Ji Mingye: “…”
She is so capable, but she still needs his care?
Lan Xiu left after saying a few words. Ji Mingye, who had become the team leader, glanced at her sideways, started walking, and motioned her to follow him, without saying a word the whole time.
"Don't mind it, Sister Shen, Aye is just that cold and icy. He's like this to everyone, not to you."
Qiutang was afraid that she would misunderstand, so he explained it to her.
Chaoge clasped his sword in both hands and nodded coldly:
"That's right. If I hadn't grown up with him, he probably wouldn't even care about my life or death."
Quan Jiu: "He's fine like this."
Compared to the nagging Qiu Tang, Ji Mingye is simply a little angel.
Ji Mingye was a typical man who was harsh but not warm-hearted. Quan Jiu thought he was dull and inexperienced, but when they entered the herbal medicine shop, he skillfully placed a pile of herbs on the table and slammed his sharp sword on the table.
"Shopkeeper, please settle the bill."
When the shopkeeper saw his ruthless temperament, he didn't dare to raise the price too much.
"A total of two thousand five hundred and thirty-one taels of silver."
Ji Mingye single-handedly pressed the blade of the sword: "Smooth off the remainder."
The shopkeeper took a deep breath, feeling a pang of pain: "Then let's make it two thousand five hundred taels."
Ji Mingye didn't even budge: "Two thousand taels."
Shopkeeper: “…”
How can you smooth out the leftovers like this?
In the end, the two thousand taels of silver were spent successfully.
When Quan Jiu stepped out of the door, she took a special look at Ji Mingye. Qiu Tang noticed her little movement and explained.
"Aye grew up in the Divine Doctor Valley and is very familiar with the prices of medicinal herbs. When he said two thousand taels, it meant that the herbs just now were only worth two thousand taels."
Looking at the young man in black walking in front of him indifferently, Quan Jiu raised the corner of his mouth slightly:
"Does he bargain like this often?"
Those who didn't know would think he was chopping people.
Qiu Tang touched his nose in frustration, knowing that his childhood friend was too vicious.
"You'll get used to it."
Along the way, Qiutang enthusiastically bought two strings of candy figures for her and Chaoge, but was blatantly despised by his two female teammates.
When we arrived at the inn, Lan Xiu and his friends had not returned yet.
Qiutang muttered quietly, ordered a plate of peanuts and threw two into his mouth:
"That shouldn't be the case. The market they're going to is much closer than the pharmacy. There's no reason for them to be back later than us."
Chaoge frowned: "Even if he went shopping and had a meal, he should be back by this time. Could something have happened?"
Ji Mingye stood up from the stool with a blank expression.
"I'll go take a look."
"I'm with you."
Quan Jiu put down his chopsticks and stood up.
The two men walked out of the inn and headed towards the market. The closer they got to the market, the more crowded the crowd became. Ji Mingye walked too fast and was about to hit the grain truck at the corner when Quan Jiu grabbed his sleeve and pulled him.
"It's going to crash."
She kindly reminded me that after pulling, I should immediately release my hands. The whole process took less than two seconds.
The boy who was rushing around stopped, frowned slightly under his sparse bangs, and stared at the sleeve that she had pulled.
Quan Jiu: "Let's go, there are fewer people here."
She didn't pay any attention to Ji Mingye's reaction and was only thinking about finding someone.
Ji Mingye paused for a moment: "...Hmm."
After walking a few steps, Quan Jiu saw Lan Xiu coming towards her, and the other party also saw her.
“Sister Shen?”
There was a bruise on the boy's forehead and his hair was a lot messier.
Quan Jiu: "Did you have a fight with someone?"
Not only him, Aci also had wounds on his face, only Liu Yao's face was clean.
Lan Xiu's face didn't look good: "It's okay, we didn't suffer any loss."
Quan Jiu handed him a bottle of ointment he had just bought. Lan Xiu accepted it with a smile and thanked him.
When they returned to the inn, Qiutang and Chaoge were also shocked by the injuries of the two men. When they asked the reason, Lan Xiu didn't say anything. Instead, Liu Yao's eyes flashed with discomfort.
night.
Quan Jiu was just about to go to bed when she heard someone knocking on the door next door. The wooden floor did not provide good sound insulation, so she did not listen intently and took in everything Liu Yao said.
"Brother Lan, I'm responsible for getting you into trouble today. If you hadn't saved me, you wouldn't have confronted the Tianyuan Sect."
Liu Yao's tone was filled with guilt.
"I am the captain, so I am naturally responsible for every team member." Lan Xiu's clear voice sounded.
Liu Yao: "I just feel bad. This is the ointment made by my master. This is all I have. Brother Lan, please keep it."
Quan Jiu put his hands behind his head, crossed his legs and made two "tsk tsk" sounds.
Liu Yao was really willing to spend a lot of money. The ointment made by Qiu Zhongkui was priceless, and she only had one bottle, but she was willing to give it away.
Lan Xiu knew how precious the ointment was and returned it: "How can this be..."
Liu Yao stuffed the medicine bottle back into his palm:
"Brother Lan, don't refuse. I can't rest easy until your injury heals. We're going into Sunset Forest tomorrow, and it's fraught with danger. Even for the sake of the team members, you have to heal your injury quickly."
She seized on Lan Xiu's sense of responsibility, spoke very nicely, and persuaded him for a while, and finally Lan Xiu had no choice but to accept the ointment.
………
Sunset forest.
“Sister Shen, this is your first time going out for training. Don’t be nervous if you encounter high-level monsters. After entering the forest, just follow me.”
Lan Xiu specifically found Quan Jiu to give him instructions.
Many people have high levels of cultivation but no practical experience. They are like castles in the air, which are easily shaken when an earthquake occurs.
Quan Jiu looked well-behaved and sensible: "Then I'll trouble you, Brother Lan."
