Yunxi commanded Lan Muxuan and the others, and after selecting the medicinal materials they needed in advance, he winked at Long Qianjue, hinting that he could let him go, otherwise if he delayed for too long, it would cause public anger.

Each of the five men took one, which was not the most precious, but what they needed the most.

The rest of the people saw that they were not taking the most precious medicinal materials among them, so they didn't care about them in general, and began to search for the medicinal materials they needed separately.

In less than a moment, dozens of medicinal materials were snatched up, some people had two medicinal materials in their hands, some were more greedy, one person took four or five, but most of them were still relatively personable, and in front of everyone, they didn't dare to show that they were too greedy.

"Okay, then please say the names of the various medicinal herbs in turn, and if you say it correctly, you can take it yourself, if you say it wrong...... Just put it back in its place and let the others continue to guess. The head of the enemy family glanced around, and finally his gaze fell on Yunxi's body, "Then please ask Mrs. Long to come first." ”

Who let them get their hands on it first?

Yunxi smiled confidently, took a step forward, and held the medicinal herbs on the tray in his hand upward: "This is sea lion grass, which grows at a high altitude, and it must be close to the sea, it must be grown by absorbing the moisture of seawater, the humidity is moderate, and the salt absorbed must be just right, not one point more, nor one point less, otherwise it will definitely die." ”

She flipped the bottom of the tray over and showed it to everyone, and sure enough, it was the word sea lion grass.

Everyone couldn't help but exclaim, not because she guessed the name of the sea lion grass, but because the growth environment and characteristics of the sea lion grass she described were so in place, so accurate, and even some of them didn't know.

Nangong Yi raised his eyelids and cast a different look in the direction of Yunxi, no one knew what he was thinking at the moment, but there was a little unwillingness in his eyes.

She should have been his fiancée......

"Mother's so good!" Xiaomo applauded happily.

Long Tianze smiled shallowly and agreed with his words.

Yuan Chengran also took a piece of medicinal herb in his hand, and when he heard Yunxi's detailed description, he couldn't help but be surprised, he walked up a few steps, handed the medicinal herb in his hand to her, and said, "If you can also guess the name of this medicinal herb in my hand, it is yours." ”

Yunxi glanced at it, hooked his lips slightly, and already had the answer in his heart.

"Uncle Yuan, this medicinal herb in your hand is a treasure that is difficult to buy, if you send it to Sheng Bao Zhai for auction, it can be sold for at least 10,000 taels of gold. ”

The crowd was in an uproar.

She said this, it is too exaggerated, 10,000 taels of silver is already a lot, 10,000 taels of gold, how is it possible?

One of the female apprentices beside Master Hua couldn't help but speak: "This is just an ordinary macaroni, looking at its age, it is indeed much more valuable than ordinary macaroni, but at most it can be sold for 10,000 taels of silver." You said it could be sold for 10,000 taels of gold, but I would like to ask, how do you sell it?"

"This girl is wrong, it's not macaroni at all!" Yunxi's eyes were shining, and his confident look fascinated all beings.

"Why isn't it macaroni? But anyone who knows some common sense of medicinal herbs knows that it's macaroni. The female apprentice was not convinced.

At this time, Master Hua, who was sitting in the first position on the right, slowly changed his face, because he had also seen the special features of this medicinal herb, and he shook his head secretly, it seemed that this time his apprentice was blind.

Yuan Chengran smiled faintly and nodded frequently. If you are not an experienced person, most people will mistake this herb for macaroni, but they don't know how different this herb is from another herb, and its value is also earth-shattering.

"Everyone, please look!" Yunxi took the medicinal materials from Yuan Chengran's hand, turned to face the alchemists, and said unhurriedly, "As we all know, the biggest feature of macaroni is that its fibrous roots are swollen, and it contains all the essence of macaroni. In addition, the ingredients in the root part of it are in a solid state, and in the process of use, they only need to be ground into powder form, which can be mixed into other medicinal materials. ”

"This is all common sense, everyone knows it, can you say something that everyone doesn't know?" The female apprentice was dismissive of Yunxi's explanation.

"Okay, then I'll tell you what you don't know, girl. Yunxi deliberately emphasized the other party, so angry that the female apprentice secretly gritted her teeth, she didn't believe that she could still say that a broken macaroni was a flower, anyway, she decided that it was macaroni.

"As I said earlier, if it's macaroni, then the composition of its roots should be solid, if not, it's not macaroni. In order to convince this girl, I came to dissect the root of this herb on the spot, so that everyone could identify the authenticity. ”

Hearing this, Baili Shuang hurriedly sent a dagger and stood beside the master with a look.

Everyone gathered around to watch, and even the head of the enemy family got up and came over to watch the excitement together.

Yunxi was about to take the knife with the dagger in his hand, when he suddenly stopped, looked up at the female apprentice of the flower master, and said, "Wait a minute! I have a question, if this medicinal herb is cut open and it is confirmed that it is really not macaroni, but a more precious medicinal herb than macaroni, then how can I calculate it at that time? Won't I have suffered a great loss?"

"It's a big deal, I'll compensate you!" the female apprentice opened her mouth, making Master Hua anxious.

"Ahem! You don't have to cut it! This is not a macaroni at all, but a very precious century-old mountain dragon, added to the refined elixir, which has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, invigorating blood and removing stasis. ”

When everyone heard Master Hua's explanation, they couldn't help but suddenly realize that it was really not an ordinary macaroni.

"What? It's not macaroni, it's a mountain dragon?" The female apprentice's face turned pale, but she didn't dare to question Master's words, since even Master said so, there must be no mistake.

Master did this for her to relieve the siege.

"Master Hua is worthy of being a generation of grandmasters, with extensive knowledge and admiration! This mountain dragon is owned by Master Hua. "Surprisingly, Yunxi actually gave away such a precious mountain dragon.

Master Hua smiled with satisfaction, and did not push, and let his own apprentice accept it.

Yunxi returned to his seat, and then Lan Muxuan and the others reported the names of the medicinal materials in their hands in turn, and the group of five returned with a full load.

"Master, why did you give them what you got in your hand? Didn't you say it was worth ten thousand gold?"

Yunxi said: "An alchemy master like him must have a lot of private goods, maybe one day when we can't find the medicinal materials, we can still get some treasures from him." Leave a line for doing things, and it will be easier to do things in the future. ”

"Sister-in-law, this is very different from your style. Long Qianchen shook his head, and soon suffered a chestnut blow, innocently flattening his mouth, what an innocent child he is, sister-in-law, how can you bear to attack him?

The atmosphere of the next dinner was very harmonious, and almost most of the people had some gains, so everyone was in a good mood. In the midst of the staggering, everyone was a little drunk.

Besides, Bai Chumu returned to his residence alone, and his mood was quite gloomy.

Long Qianxun and the Zhao sisters returned from outside the house, and happened to see him standing alone under the tree in a daze, Long Qianxun stepped forward and greeted him.

"Brother Chu Mu, what are you thinking?"

"Brother Chu Mu?"

Long Qianxun called several times, and Bai Chumu suddenly woke up and barely pulled out a smile.

"Brother Chu Mu, aren't you happy?"

"No, I'm fine. Bai Chumu shook his head and said.

Long Qianxun's smart eyes blinked lightly, pursed his lips, and suddenly took Bai Chumu's hand and ran out.

"Qianxun, what are you doing?" Bai Chumu was surprised, not knowing why.

"Just come with me and take you to a good place. The cheerful and melodious voice was soft, and Long Qianxun pulled him all the way away, away from the house, through the street, and through the alleys......

The night seems to become light.

The night wind blows her hair, her smile is bright and lovely, and her fluttering skirt is like a dream, like a happy elf......

For a moment, Bai Chumu was lost, lost in her smile that seemed to contain the aura between heaven and earth.

"Brother Chu Mu, look, isn't this place beautiful?"

"I stumbled upon it when Xiaoyou and Xiaomin passed by here, and we were immediately attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of us. ”

"Brother Chu Mu, do you like it here?"

Bai Chumu retracted his mind, and then found that they had come to a mirror lake where lotus flowers were in full bloom, and under the moonlit night, the white lotus that was victorious to snow bloomed silently, and at a glance, it was impossible to see the edge.

It's really beautiful!

However, it was still not as good as her.

For some reason, he suddenly realized that the woman in front of him was so beautiful, and her smile always lit up his mood like magic, making his heart feel as if it was in the spring breeze.

"Brother Chu Mu, although I don't know what happened to make you so unhappy, I sincerely hope that you can be happy. When I was at my most depressed, you comforted me and made me happy, so I want you to be happy too. ”

"My mother said that dancing can make people happy, and every time my father was depressed, my mother would dance to show him. ”

"Brother Chu Mu, I want to dance for you, I want to make you happy. ”

Long Qianxun tapped his toes, his steps were light, and his long yellow skirt danced in the night breeze.

The corners of his mouth with a chuckle and his black and white eyes all touched the softness of Bai Chumu's heart.

In such a lost night, but met the most beautiful her, is this the best gift from God to him?

His eyes grew moist.

Qingman's figure danced on the tip of the lotus flower, and the ripples of the lake rippled layer by layer.

Her eyes were bright, bright and clear like a stream of morning sunshine.

It's as beautiful as an elf who has fallen into the mortal world.

No genius painter in the world can paint such a beautiful picture......

He looked at it and couldn't help but be intoxicated.

In the sky, a heavy rain suddenly fell, crackling on the surface of the lake.

He smiled bitterly back, sure enough, beauty is always short-lived.

Long Qianxun's dance stopped, and she looked up at the air, and the falling raindrops hit her body violently, slightly painful.

She suddenly screamed, her body fell down, she forgot that she was still at the tip of the lotus at the moment.

"Qianxun-"

Bai Chumu jumped into the water without hesitation and scooped her up from the water, her head full of wet hair, wolf bèi, and a few residual leaves on her cheeks.

He couldn't help but laugh.

Long Qianxun snorted lowly, pouting with a look of grievance.

Bai Chumu stared at her with a smile, the moonlight shone softly on her delicate and small cheeks through the thick clouds, and he raised his hand to brush away the residual leaves on her cheeks.

"I must be ugly by now. Long Qianxun lowered his head and said in annoyance.

"It's not ugly! it's not ugly at all!" Qingsi was blown up by the wind, and Bai Chumu's voice suddenly faded like moonlight.

Long Qianxun raised his eyes suddenly, meeting his clear gaze.

The raindrops are still falling, and the lotus flowers all over the lake are shaking and singing, telling the murmur of the night.

Bai Chumu's fingertips swept across her small chin, gently outlined, and he bowed his head and kissed her on the lips.

Time has stopped.

The rain has stopped.

The clouds open and the fog disperses.

The moonlight shone faintly on him and her.

The small lake rippled.

"Brother Chu Mu, I'm afraid. ”

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. ”

"But...... I'm still scared. ”

"Then you close your eyes. ”

"Hmm...... Okay?"

"Wait a minute, soon!"

Bai Chumu jumped into the courtyard of a large family, and it didn't take long for him to climb over the wall and get out of the wall, with a dry long skirt belonging to a woman in his hand. He took Long Qianxun's hand and ran desperately.

"Ah-Brother Chu Mu, slow down!"

"If someone catches up, they'll take you as a maid!"

"No, I didn't steal it. Long Qianxun smiled playfully.

Bai Chumu smiled and said: "This skirt is only worn by girls, you didn't steal it, what did I do as a big man stealing it?"

"Oops! you're so bad!" Long Qianxun stomped his feet, his cute and playful little appearance made people unable to take their eyes off.

Bai Chumu rubbed her hair with a smile, and handed her the skirt in his hand: "Go and change it, or you should catch a cold." ”

"Is it here?" Long Qianxun looked left and right, the surrounding woods were luxuriant, and it was pitch black, and she was beating a small drum in her heart, a little scared.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to watch, and I'll be fine. Bai Chumu turned his back and comforted.

Long Qianxun stared at his back, looked at it for a while, and his nervous mood settled down inexplicably.

Behind him, Bai Chumu held his sword in both hands, his back to her, and his eyes were aimed left and right to prevent someone from inadvertently breaking in. By chance, he saw the shadow of the moonlight on the ground, the oblique shadow, outlining the woman's graceful and delicate figure. His face turned red as soon as he brushed the ground, and his heart ran like thunder.

"Shameless!" he snapped a slap in the face.

"Brother Chu Mu, what's wrong?" asked Long Qianxun from behind.

Bai Chumu shook his head weakly: "It's nothing! There are mosquitoes, and they are still a very big mosquito!"

"I'm fine!" Long Qianxun stepped forward from behind him, Bai Chumu turned his head, met her innocent smile, and all kinds of guilt immediately surged into his heart. She is such a simple and lovely girl, and it is really undeserved that she has those filthy and shameless thoughts about her for a moment.

Yes, you have to do some soul-searching!

"Brother Chu Mu, your clothes are also wet, do you want to change them? If you get sick, I will feel very guilty. ”

"No, I'm a big man, not that weak. ”

While the two were talking, not far away, an abrupt sound suddenly came, as if something had fallen from the sky.

"Who?" Bai Chumu became alert, took Long Qianxun's little hand, and walked over with the sound.

On a tall tree, there is an old man in a green shirt and a cloth shirt, leaning on the treetops, looking lazy.

Under the tree, a wine gourd fell, the lid was open, and the inside was empty.

"Hey, you old man, how long have you been here?" Bai Chumu was annoyed, he didn't find that there were other people here, so he ......

Long Qianxun also thought of it, let out a low voice, blushed shyly, and lowered his head and hid behind Bai Chumu.

"Don't worry, old man, I'm only interested in wine. The old man jumped and fell from the tree, his body wrapped in the smell of wine, but his expression was still clear. His eyebrows are as clear as distant mountains, and he has an indescribable nobility.

He looked the two up and down, and said, "It's dark and the moon is high, you two little babies came here for a private meeting, and you are not afraid that your family will worry?"

"I have family, but it's almost the same as not having one. Bai Chumu suddenly said melancholy.

"Old man, I'm just bored, if you two little babies are fine, just chat with the old man, how about it?" The old man brushed his sleeves and sat on the ground casually, but the luxury of his body was not reduced at all.

Long Qianxun saw that the old man had no malicious intentions, so he was much more relieved, paced out from behind Bai Chumu, and smiled at the old man: "Old man, as long as you don't think we are shallow and vulgar, we are very willing to chat with you." ”

Bai Chumu nodded, and the two of them sat in a circle with the old man.

"My name is Bai Chumu, her name is Long Qianxun, I don't know what to call my predecessors?"

"You can call me anything, I'm a bad old man. The old man smiled self-deprecatingly, his eyes narrowing slightly.

Long Qianxun picked up the wine gourd on the ground, shook it lightly in his hand, and said with a smile: "Then let's call you Grandpa Gourd." ”

The old man smiled: "Feel free to do anything!"

"Grandpa Hulu, what about your family, why don't you come home so late, but you are drinking alone here?" asked Long Qianxun, holding his cheeks.

"Family?" the old man's eyes dimmed slightly, and he suddenly sighed, "Today is my daughter's birthday, but she is no longer in this world, I send a white-haired person to a black-haired person, you say, am I miserable?"

"It's miserable, indeed, but I'm even more miserable than your old man. Bai Chumu said bitterly, "Today is also my mother's birthday, but she left me many years ago. What's even more miserable is that from today onwards, I can no longer call myself her son in front of outsiders, you say, am I more miserable than you?"

"Why?" asked the old man.

Long Qianxun also looked at him seriously, she wanted to know what the reason for his unhappiness tonight was.

"Because there is someone who needs that identity and position more than me, he is my most beloved brother, and I must fulfill him. When he said this, Bai Chumu's eyes gradually moistened, and he felt that he was blaspheming his mother, which was what made him sadest the most.

"Are you saying that in order to fulfill your senior brother, you gave up your mother's mother to him?" the old man squinted his eyes and shook his head suspiciously, "Why do I get more confused the more I listen? Are you saying that someone has taken your identity and is now your mother's son, and you can no longer admit that you are your mother's son in front of outsiders?"

Bai Chumu nodded.

"You are such a stupid boy! How can such a thing be done? This is not only an insult to your mother, but also a kind of injury to your relatives, and you have deceived their feelings!" said the old man.

"I didn't think about it that much, I just wanted to help my brother realize his wishes and ideals. Bai Chu said.

Long Qianxun said: "Grandpa Hulu, don't accuse Brother Chu Mu, he is too kind, so he will help his senior brother." Although I don't agree with this matter very much, if it is Brother Chu Mu's decision, I will still support it to the end. ”

Bai Chumu stared at her, the tip of his heart was wrapped in something, and warmth flowed.

The old man looked at the two of them left and right, shook his head and sighed: "Child, sometimes, people can't be too kind, otherwise you can only suffer the loss." That's it, maybe stupid people have stupid blessings, you are all good boys, and you will definitely be blessed. ”

The old man got up suddenly, brushed his sleeves, and dusted off the dirt on his body: "After chatting with you for a while, my mood is much better, old man." I'll go first, and I hope to see each other again. ”

"Grandpa Hulu, you're good to go!" Long Qianxun handed over his wine gourd and smiled sweetly at him.

"It's a good girl, you have to cherish it!" the old man threw a meaningful look at Bai Chumu, let out a long laugh, and walked away with his sleeves.

Bai Chumu's heart moved slightly, he glanced deeply in the direction of Long Qianxun, stretched out his hand, and took her little hand: "Let's go back too." ”

"Hmm. Long Qianxun smiled innocently.

By the time the two returned to their lodgings, the dinner had long since dispersed.

Long Qianchen took a bath, went out to breathe, and happened to bump into Bai Chumu leading Long Qianxun back from outside the garden. He was slightly stunned, his gaze fell on the hands of the two of them, and his eyes gradually dilated, revealing an incredible color.

"You, you, you, you......"

He rushed to the two of them in a few steps, pointed to the hands of the two of them, stammered for a long time, and suddenly shouted in the garden with a loud voice: "Big brother and sister-in-law, something is wrong! Qianxun has been bullied!"

Bai Chumu only reacted at this time, and hurriedly let go. Long Qianxun was also taken aback, like a child who had made a mistake, standing in place with his head bowed, at a loss.

Long Qianchen's shout alarmed everyone in the garden.

Long Qianjue and Yunxi didn't know what to do, and when they heard that Qianxun had an accident, they hurriedly put down what they were doing and rushed out as soon as possible. When they left Panlong City, they promised the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt to take good care of Qianxun, if something happened to Qianxun, how would they explain to the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt?

"What's going on? Which one is bold enough to bully our family's Qianxun?" Yunxi shouted sharply, before anyone arrived, the voice came first.
