In the evening, Xiao Yat came next door. Zhao Qianbei still didn't appear in the store, and he didn't ask, sitting alone in the lobby drinking tea in a daze.

After a short while, someone came in front of the store. No guy came over to ask, this person should be his own person. Out of the corner of his eye, Xiao Yi inadvertently saw a pale pink shadow entering the door, and the teacup in his hand was not held steady, and almost fell to the table.

Turning his head to take a closer look, it turned out to be one of the two daughters. Did you get acquainted with this place so quickly? What kind of efficiency is this?

Seeing Xiao Yi eating tea on the side seat, the visitor smiled and nodded to say hello, and then explained a few words to the guy at the counter. Only then did he turn around and walk towards Xiao Yiyingying.

"Jian Xin has seen Xiao Gongzi, thank you Gongzi for saving his life. ”

"You're welcome, it's self-protection and casualness, the girl doesn't have to mind. Xiao Yi returned the salute with a fist, but what he thought in his heart was, it turns out that this girl is Sword Heart!

"Childe is modest, this pair of sons may be a trivial matter, but this is a great life-saving grace, and my sisters are unforgettable. In the future, as long as it does not go against the will of the master, my sisters and sisters will go to the soup for the son. Jian Xin said, his jade face flushed a little red, and his tone was much more excited. This is obviously a manifestation of high emotions, if it weren't for the other party's strong words, Xiao Yi would mistakenly think that she had eaten strong wine.

"Alright, alright. You two are the best reward for me. By the way, what are you doing here?"

Hearing Xiao Yi's words, Jian Xin hurriedly replied: "The master said, in the future, my sister and I will be responsible for guiding Zhao Qianbei to practice qi." The little girl is not talented, she is only in the middle of Qi training, but it is still possible to tutor a mortal to get started with Qi training. Today, after my son went back, the master instructed my sister and me in some methods of cultivating the truth. I just went out to run errands, and I specially told us to listen to Xiao Gongzi for everything during the time she left. ”

Xiao Yat was not surprised by Qin Xi's departure. After all, it is not like a cultivator to always be wronged here. Now that he is in the city, and two female Qi cultivation stage cultivators have joined, this strength can also be guaranteed to be safe among mortals.

The two chatted for a few words, but they still didn't see Zhao Qianbei come out, Xiao Yi originally came over to say hello, but now since he couldn't wait for someone, he didn't deliberately wait.

Xiao Yat returned to the backyard of the store, and happened to meet Jian Yi cleaning the room. The room where Zhao Qianbei lived before had been handed over to the two sisters to live in at this time. After a few polite sentences, Xiao Yi turned around and went out all the way back to his island.

As soon as he entered the formation, Xiao Yi saw Dog Meat napping on his stomach in front of the cave. The little guy's short blue hair also had a few bruises the size of copper coins.

"What's wrong with you? were you bullied, or did you go out and make trouble?"

Dog Meat had already heard the sound of Xiao Yi coming back, but now it didn't have the strength to go up to greet Xiao Yi. He opened his eyes with difficulty, let out a soft cry that seemed to be out of nowhere, and then closed his eyes again.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi stepped forward to probe the veins of the dog meat, although the little guy's life was fine, but it was obviously poisoned. It is estimated that it will be sluggish for a while.

"What kind of enemy have you offended? You can still be poisoned! Are you disobedient and eating indiscriminately?"

Xiao Yat said as he took out two medicine bottles from the storage bag. One here is to clear away heat and detoxify, and the other is to invigorate blood and dispel blood stasis. Although it is not possible to make the dog active immediately, it is still effective to recover early.

When I looked up, I saw a few nightshade berries in the flower garden, and being able to take them together should strengthen the medicinal properties a little. Xiao Yat then stepped into it with his feet raised and walked straight towards the nightshade.

"Woohoo!

Dog Meat suddenly let out two warning growls, which were already full roar in its current condition. Xiao Yi turned his head and saw Dog Meat struggling to prop up his front body, looking in his direction sadly, he realized something, and hurriedly retreated back.

"Alright, alright, this is your territory, I forgot. Xiao Yi smiled awkwardly, and gently swung out the condensed spiritual power with one hand. The spiritual power gently rolled around the branches and leaves of the nightshade, and slowly scraped a handful of purple and black berries. With a hook of his wrist, the handful of berries fell back into his hand steadily, and seeing that the dog meat did not continue to protest, Xiao Yi sat down next to it with peace of mind.

He put two pills, one black and one red, into the dog's mouth, and then put the nightshade fruit in its mouth.

"Eat them all. Get better sooner, you still have a bunch of children to take care of. ”

Xiao Yat watched the dog eat all the berries, so he took out a sea fish from the storage bag and put it in its mouth.

The night breeze was clear, Xiao Yi pillowed the belly of the dog meat, looked at the stars flashing in the sky and said: "Dog meat, now the yin and yang in the shop are declining! There are two more female cultivators next door to me, and if I continue to live like this, I am afraid that it will not be long before I will cause trouble." You know what? The most troublesome thing in this world is that there are two kinds of people, one is a woman and the other is a dead person. It's the same that makes you have no place to reason, and it's the same existence that makes you unable to fight. If it's a man, then even if you can't reason, you can at least beat him to his knees. But how do women fight? Where do dead people go? So it's better to be here? It's quiet, there's nothing to worry about. ”

Dog Meat seemed to understand whether he understood or not, arched Xiao Yi's hand with his damp nose, and listened to his nagging without a word.

"No, I don't have a woman, so I'll just talk about it. You're a daddy fur dog now, isn't it appropriate for me to say that about a woman?"

Xiao Yi turned his head to look at the dog meat, and the little guy obviously regained some energy. Hearing Xiao Yi's question, the dog meat actually slapped his face with his forelimbs, and seemed to let out a sigh.

"That's right, you have a wife, you should have a deeper understanding than me. It seems that you are also suffering from life. Anyway, I saw your child, but what about your wife? Why didn't I see you take your wife to the island? You kid shouldn't have given up all the time? We can't be too careful, and you bring your wives over when you turn around, and I will leave a mark on them. You can't have a place to be happy with your children, and let them wander away, right?"

Dog Meat obviously didn't understand, and seeing that Xiao Yi's tone was no longer sad, it began to stretch out its little tongue and lick Xiao Yi's palm again.

"What are you licking? You haven't said where the wounds on your body came from! We can't make trouble with others, because our strength is limited. Sometimes it's too much trouble for us to afford. You've gotten out like me this time, and you've caused three troublesome guys. No, it's five troublesome guys. Two of them are already living next door to me, and three are trying to kill me. ”

The fur on the dog's body suddenly exploded, his breath was short, and a low roar came from his throat. Xiao Yi turned his head and found that the dog meat had two fangs sticking out of his mouth, and then smiled: "It's okay, if you want to kill me, you'll let me kill it." I didn't see you when I came back the day before yesterday, so I was buried in the fruit grove behind. In the next few decades, your Spirit Enhancement Fruit will not be broken. Do you know? The Spirit Enhancement Fruit actually needs the corpse of a cultivator to grow, so if I meet this kind of guy who wants to be unfavorable to me in the future, I will bring it back to you to make fertilizer. ”

Xiao Yi said something nonsense again, he felt that this was the most comfortable place. You can say whatever you want, and there are listeners, and everything is so cozy and casual. Listening to the sound of the waves gently crashing on the shore and smelling the faint salty air, Xiao Yi quietly fell asleep.

Seven days later, Zhao Qianbei came to look for Xiao Yi, his face was entangled, and occasionally he could see a little excitement in his eyes.

"Senior Zhao, what happened? Why did you come here on purpose, just let Kenshin call me me?"

Xiao Yi invited Zhao Qianbei to sit down, and took out a jade bottle from the storage bag. This is the Xiuzhen Spirit Wine seized last time, there are a total of bottles, I tasted one bottle first, and the rest of the bottle was reserved for Zhao Qianbei.

"An old friend just came over and brought me a piece of news. In the middle of the ...... in Yecheng, Senior Zhao suddenly smelled the aroma of wine from the open bottle, and his face was suddenly stunned. When Xiao Yi took out the jade bottle before, he didn't smell the slightest bit of wine, and he didn't expect that this thing could completely lock the smell in the bottle. This aroma makes Zhao Qianbei very useful. I can't say how good this drink is, but the unique aroma will be memorable.

Zhao Qianbei has been exposed to a lot of alcohol for decades, but each wine cannot cover everything with advantages and disadvantages. Good sake has the taste of good sake, and local sake has the feeling of local sake. Every taste is an unknown door, and after tasting it, a new space opens up in one's world of taste.

The taste in this jade bottle is undoubtedly a wonderful gate, and there is a delicate little lady beckoning Zhao Qianbei to travel in.

"This is ......" Zhao Qianbei tentatively asked Xiao Yi's opinion, and seeing his eager and nervous eyes, Xiao Yi couldn't help but smile. He pushed the jade bottle in front of Zhao Qianbei and said with a smile: "New things, I got a total of two bottles, and I confirmed that it was okay." This one is reserved for you. ”

Zhao Qianbei was not polite when he heard this, grabbed the jade bottle and poured a big mouthful into his mouth. A cool stream of elixir runs down the esophagus to the abdomen, and then a burning heat slowly excites in the path of the elixir. Zhao Qianbei held his breath, his abdomen was slightly exerted, and a breath of wine returned to his mouth from the bottom up, and he suddenly felt that the whole person was haunted by the wine in this jade bottle. Even his breathing became intoxicating to him.

"Senior, what are you looking for me?"

"I'll talk about it later, no hurry. Zhao Qianbei took another sip, and the taste of this booze was different from that of a shallow taste. The drink was stirred in the mouth, washing all parts of the mouth, and finally mixed saliva and swallowed slowly.

"Yes, it's like never before. Help me get some next time. Zhao Qian couldn't stop nodding in praise, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he poured another mouthful into his mouth with a smile.

"Why not?

Xiao Yi looked at Zhao Qianbei's childlike habits, shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly. Fortunately, a bottle was given to him, if you drink it with him, you won't be blamed for drinking it all?

The two laughed for a while, and then cut to the chase.

On the second day, Siu Yat set out on the journey in a take-off boat.

He first had to go to the valley to check the situation of the fire wood, and then go to the Yecheng Imperial Palace. The Gentiles have recently entered the palace with some rare treasures, among which is a mineral that is very similar to the fire fox incense recorded in the roster.

I don't know how to get this fire fox incense, but the effect is extremely magical. The fox in Pingsuri emits a foul smell, but the fox with the scent of the fire fox is an outlier. Not only does it not smell like a fox, but it also leaves a faint fragrance along the way. Breaking through the fox's flesh reveals a fist-sized piece of hard object in its belly. Scraping some powder with a golden knife and burning it with other incense wood can make the whole room produce a strange fragrance. Moreover, this fragrance cannot be blown away by the wind, and a little incineration can store the fragrance for three days. The most amazing thing is that this object can make people blood swell in the center, and this tribute is said to be under the banner of adding leaves to the royal family. It's a pity that the new emperor is young, and it's still a bit too early to say this, but the imperial doctor in the palace has already listed it as the most important treasure for the new emperor when he becomes an adult.

If this is really a fire fox incense, then its value is probably no less than ten thousand spirit stones. Xiao Yi has no family affection for this little emperor, and is not interested in whether he can strengthen the Xiao family. But if a mere mortal emperor has this thing, I'm afraid it will be difficult to keep it thorough, and if it is not done, it will lead to annihilation.

Xiao Yi checked the fire and saw that although the spring water had flowed to the surrounding area, there was still an unknown amount of time before the fire tree was extinguished, so he hurried to the Yecheng Palace.

"Brother Jiu, why do you add guards tonight? It's been seven days, how long will it take to be so nervous?"

"What's the complaint? If you want to increase your patrol, you will obediently inspect. Just because we're safe doesn't mean there's no danger. Didn't Lord Min say that recently, many people have inquired about the news of the secret treasures in the palace. If someone really wants to kill in, I'm afraid that you think that such an inspection is a fool's dream. If there is a slight mistake, it will be assigned to the frontier, and the worst will be raided and destroyed. It is a blessing to be alive and on duty, and to be tired is also to be tired. It's better than lying dead and lying down!"

The two guards whispered, completely oblivious to a figure crawling on the corridor overhead.

"I said, why are there so many people?

Xiao Yi waited until a team of Praetorian guards below moved away, and then found an opportunity to turn over and jump down. The brightly lit place in front is the Heart Cultivation Palace, and the little emperor Xiao Hexin is accompanied by two palace maids in the dormitory at this time to prepare for sleep.

Xiao Yat sneaked in, sprinkled the smoke into the incense burner, and hid himself in the dark waiting for the effect of the medicine to kick in.

Soon a group of palace people in the hall fell asleep, and Xiao Yi went into the inner hall and took out a small bottle for Xiao Hexin to sniff.

"What does this taste like? Jiaqing, Jiayin, bring me some candied fruit. Xiao Hexin said in a daze, but his two palace maids did not answer immediately.

"You two, do I spoil you too much on weekdays? Now I can't talk anymore? Believe it or not, I'll let you go to the imperial tomb tomorrow to sprinkle water and weeds for the first emperor?" Xiao Hexin propped himself up and opened his eyes in confusion. He was surprised to find Jiaqing Jiayin, two palace maids, sitting on the edge of the dragon couch dozing.

"Okay, you two guys, you guys are secretly sleeping by yourself. Just now I promised you to be concubines in the future, and I started to be lazy before I got on the throne!"

"What kind of concubine and what kind of concubine are you?"

A voice came, and Xiao Hexin was taken aback. Just as he was about to cry out for help, he took a dagger and pointed it at the center of his eyebrows.

"Be obedient, I didn't want to kill you. ”

Xiao Yi pointed the dagger at the little emperor, looked at it with a wry smile, and then put the dagger away.

"Come with me, I'll take you to a nice place. ”

Xiao Yi grabbed Xiao Hexin's waist with one hand, and covered his small mouth with the other hand. After a few breaths, they found themselves in a small dark room.

This was Xiao Yat's favorite place when he was a child, and decades have passed and no one has been discovered. Xiao Hexin was also nervous at first, but when he entered a small secret room, he immediately felt much safer. Compared to the grand hall, he prefers this kind of short and safe space.

The two of them, one big and one young, were talking softly in the secret room, there was no nervousness, everything was cordial that Xiao Hexin had never felt.

"Second brother, didn't you die early? Why did you appear today? Father, mother, and the prince's brother are gone. If they were, I'd be glad you'd be alive. ”

"The second brother has enemies, so you don't have to say anything about my life. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome. ”

"Can't Jiaqing and Jiayin say it?"

"No, you know about it. Even the tortoise and the bird can't tell. ”

"Who is going to be your enemy? Tell me, and I will decree that they all come and confess their mistakes to you. ”

"It's useless. They are not under royal control, and your orders are not useful. By the way, I'm here to tell you something. ”

The two figures kept talking in the secret room until the twilight faded the next day, and then returned to the dormitory.

On this day, in the imperial garden of the imperial palace, Emperor Xiao Hexin of Beiji suddenly sent an edict to let the imperial doctor take the fire fox incense, and after a while, the imperial doctor knelt in front of him with a jade box.

Xiao Hexin paced back and forth in the lakeside pavilion with the fire fox incense, and finally asked thoughtlessly: "The fire fox incense of the Qing family is thrown into the water, I don't know if it will float gently or sink into the mire?"

When the imperial doctor heard this, he was speechless, and he had only found this fire fox incense in the classics. He didn't know what it would be like to throw it into the water! Who would casually throw this kind of treasure into the water for experiments? When an adult emperor encounters this treasure, let alone throw it into the water, it is reasonable to sleep in his arms.

Just when he didn't know how to answer, there was a "bang" on the lake. Then came the sound of Xiao Hexin clapping his hands in joy.

"Sure enough, the sound was different. A baby is a baby, and it sounds good to fall into the water. Then you can send a decree that if you have such treasures in the future, you will send them to me. Let...... Did I tell you to go into the water and salvage you?"

Xiao Hexin was delivering the decree, but when he saw a group of palace guards jumping into the lake, he shouted angrily.

When the palace guards heard that His Majesty did not like it, they hurriedly climbed back to the shore, and only waited for him to return to the water before arranging for someone to go into the water to salvage.

Xiao Hexin had enough of fooling around, shouting to go back to the dormitory for a nap, his left hand was holding something tightly in the sleeve of his robe, and his little hand kept shaking, looking nervous and excited.

In the afternoon of the same day, Beiji Yecheng posted the imperial list, announcing that the world would collect fire fox incense to pay tribute to the imperial court. This fire fox incense was not received, but the reputation of the little emperor who violently destroyed the heavens spread. That night, the palace guards resumed the old practice of three shifts on duty, and the corners of the little emperor's mouth rose slightly in his sleep. The palace maids looked at his sleeping appearance and fell in love with this mischievous little emperor from the bottom of their hearts. Probably only at his age would throw that thing into the water.

"Sister, why are you here? I'm about to go back. ”

In a secret passage dark room in the palace, Xiao Yi looked at the bloodless beauty in front of him in surprise.
