Chapter 58
Wearing a moonlight white embroidered silver silk auspicious cloud pattern robe specially selected from the ready-to-wear store, and at the suggestion of the shopkeeper, his face was replaced with a silver mask carved with the pattern of the other side flower. www.biquge.info The delicate jaw of the pen is as cold as jade, and the delicate jaw with the pigeon's blood and broken gems on the petals of the mask give people a shivering feeling like a cold blade splashing blood even if they walk in the warm afternoon sun.
It's like a peerless blade, a simple scabbard or a low-key and luxurious sword box. No matter how complicated the outside is, it can't stop the chill that it has been tempered by years and blood.
And for a technically controlled player, all appearances are actually only convenient and inconvenient in her eyes. This is also the reason why Ling Xue has been dressed as a man. Although this is a game, in order to pursue reality, the cumbersome women's clothing still brings inconvenience to the player in the fight to a certain extent.
The reason why she chose to change her clothes at this time is very related to what she will do next. Ling Xue is afraid that she is wearing too shabby, and those NPCs with eyes above the top will choose to ignore her.
Walking into Yongchun Hall, the largest medical hall in the national capital and the largest medicinal herb store, Ling Xue took a look around the Cheng set in the hall, raised his hand to beckon the guy who ran the hall, and handed him a piece of broken silver.
"I'll talk to your shopkeeper about something, and I'll lead the way."
"This ......" The man hesitated for a moment, but still took the silver from Ling Xue's hand, and put it in his waist. He looked around for a while, and then bowed his waist and made a gesture of invitation with his right hand, and said politely. "Your side, please."
The guy who ran the hall took Ling Xue into the back hall of Yongchun Hall and stopped at a spacious room that seemed to be for entertaining foreign guests.
"I also ask the guest officer to wait here for a while, and the little one will go to tell the shopkeeper."
"Okay."
With permission, the guy who ran the hall quickly exited the room.
After waiting for a cup of tea, the guy who had left the hall and returned led a sixty-year-old man in a dark blue cloth coat walked in.
"I don't know what the young man wants to see the old man?"
After the two sat down with a false salute, the old man asked straight to the point.
"I heard that there was a plague in Xincheng, and Imperial Doctor Li was ordered to raise herbs." Seeing that the other party was simply, Ling Xue didn't bend around, took a sip of the tea cup offered by the guy, and said slowly.
"What does the government have to do with raising herbs for the old man?" The headless words made the shopkeeper of Yongchun Hall very puzzled.
"I just want to ask you to let the news out that there happens to be a large stock of this plague cure herb in the Yongchun Hall."
"But ...... they don't have it in Yongchun Hall!" And they don't even know what herbs the plague needs......
"I know you don't, but I do." Seeing the old man's hesitation, Ling Xue interrupted him and went straight down. "I can provide a part of the medicinal herbs to your hall for free, and your hall can use these free herbs to donate in the name of Bo Guanfu and the good name in the eyes of the people. And I,"
Putting down the celadon teacup in her hand, Ling Xue's eyes fell on the old man in front of her with an irresistible meaning.
"You only need to introduce me to the shopkeeper when Imperial Doctor Li comes to the door."
She inquired about the plague in Xincheng from the beggars who had newly poured into the capital, and its symptoms happened to match the symptoms of a good prescription recorded in the medical book she had studied in the Valley of Despair. Therefore, she knew very well what medicinal materials this headache Imperial Doctor Li needed to raise for this plague.
The benefits of sending it to the door, the shopkeeper of Yongchun Hall has no reason to push it out. After the two had a detailed discussion, Ling Xue left satisfied, with the shopkeeper's promise that he would act as soon as possible.
Out of Yongchun Hall, Ling Xue went to Qianzhuang. took stock of the money she had earned from selling equipment and poisons during this time, and took out some of it and sent it to her daughter, who entrusted her to buy herbs, and smiled.
Looking at the remaining 50,000 taels of gold in his warehouse, Ling Xue couldn't help frowning. Although the herbs used in the plague were all very common herbs, they could not withstand the excessive demand. Once she really got on the line with Imperial Doctor Li, she had a hunch that the 50,000 gold on her body was definitely not enough.
Not to mention, in the future, it is necessary to buy land to build a large trading house.
It seems that the most important thing right now is to raise more money in the shortest possible time, and the more the better.
Unexpectedly, Ling Xue thought of the gang order I got in Tianji Tower. If she can find a way to get another piece-
Isn't that the economic crisis solved?
It's just that the gang makes this thing, not only does she think about it, but I guess the big gangs think about it crazy. Even they tried their best to find things in vain, where should she start looking for Su Lingxue?
"Snow in the North Mountains?" Just as Ling Xue was standing in front of the gate of Qianzhuang and meditating on the matter of the gang order, she heard someone call her.
Subconsciously raise your head and come back to your senses. But I saw a woman in a dark purple wide-sleeved skirt trotting towards her, and when her gorgeous face was dyed red due to sports, it looked even more tempting and moving, causing many players passing by to turn back frequently. What's more, it's a step and three lookbacks.
"See you again, Enchanting." Ling Xue recognized the woman in purple as the new friend she had met not long ago, Qingge was enchanting. She stopped, bowing slightly.
I didn't expect to meet my friends here, and I was very happy. After the two exchanged pleasantries, she saw that Ling Xue had nothing to do at this time, so she encouraged her to accompany her to the outskirts of the national capital to collect the task items needed for the task.
"It's a little boss, with you, it's just so good that I don't have to go to a helper. If something good happens, it's all yours. β
Seeing that she said this, Ling Xue put aside her worries for the time being. gladly agreed to go with him.
It's just that when the two of them just left the city gate with their front feet, Ling Xue, who felt powerful and meticulous as a hair, sank his face on his hind feet, and his right hand touched the blue placed on his waist.
"What's wrong?" Sensing that Ling Xue slowed down, Qingge Enchanting, who was in a posture of preparing for battle, also stopped, looked around, but did not find anything unusual.
"Someone followed." Ling Xue twisted her eyebrows and explained.
The person who stalked him had good kung fu and knew how to do it, and he had no murderous intent. It's no wonder that even she didn't notice it in the crowded city just now. Not to mention the mediocre martial arts Qingge is enchanting.
"You go away."
Someone following? Is it ......?
Hearing Ling Xue's words, Qingge, who subconsciously took a few steps back obediently, suddenly appeared in his mind-
"There's snow, don't-"
It's just that her cry was too late, and the moment she retreated, Ling Xue's flying knife that was preparing for battle had already been taken out of her hand and roared towards the hiding place of the person who was following her.
A black shadow suddenly appeared on the dense trunk of the tree, as if he had expected the other party to have this move, and he turned over and got off the tree in a hurry, and walked around the back of the tree.
With a few clicks, Ling Xue's flying knife either grazed the branches and disappeared, or was deeply inserted into the sturdy trunk.
The blow missed, Ling Xue kicked the ground with his right foot, and one took off into the air with his strength. With his whip, he hurried towards the dark shadow behind the tree.
In the face of the opponent's aggressiveness, the black shadow is not afraid to fight. He flashed out, and the seemingly chaotic volley of his left hand, which had never held a martial hand, held the end of the long whip swung by Ling Xue in his hand.
Ling Xue, who was restrained by the weapon, did not panic, her steps were continuous, like a goshawk hovering in the sky waiting for prey, and the long whip in her hand also began to wrap around the black shadow's hand to his body with her movements, forcing him to let go, flying up, holding a blade towards Ling Xue's waist.
"Don't fight! There's snow, he's my friend! Not a bad guy! β
Qingge's enchanting and eager shouts filled her ears with the wind, and the two of them in the struggle couldn't help but glance sideways at the direction where she was standing, and then looked at the opponent in unison.
A black cloth mask only showed cold eyes, and a silver mask covered the face with only cold eyes.
At the moment when the eyes of the two met, another scene was between lightning and flint. Both sides read in the eyes of their opponents the recognition of their identity, as well as the ......
Awe-inspiring battle spirit!
Ling Xue leaned over and took a small step back, raised her right hand outward, and the long whip came out of the hole like a spiritual snake, directly attacking the man in black.
The man in black hurriedly kicked the ground with both feet, and used the reaction force to jump over Ling Xue, and a backflip fell behind her, and the short dagger in his hand turned around and stabbed her in the back.
Ling Xue, who didn't have time to turn around, bent down and could dodge. Seeing that the dagger was wrapped around again, she simply supported the ground with her left hand, rotated 360 degrees less than half a foot from the ground, and kicked her feet up in turn, kicking the man in black in the abdomen, forcing him to take a few steps back.
Ling Xue took advantage of this opportunity to chase after the victory, and the blue drew several sharp whip shadows in the air, sweeping the opponent's chest and arms with the hunting yin wind.
The man in black did not sit still, only to see him dodging the whip shadow left and right while approaching Ling Xue step by step, and the dagger in his hand was even more indefinite and stabbed at the opponent's weak point in various tricky ways.
"Stopββ!"
Just when the two people in the battle once again pinched each other's life, an unfolded folding fan directly attacked the hands of the two to control the enemy.
Withdraw your hand and turn your head sideways.
One of the weapons of Baihuamen is a folding fan, and the owner of this folding fan that separates the two people can naturally only see that the opening cannot be stopped, so it can be changed to a bewitching song.
"Fight again another day." Under Qingge's bewitching and reproachful eyes, the man in black took the lead in putting away his weapon.
"Okay." The long whip wrapped around her waist, and Ling Xue also nodded.
"You guys?" Seeing the two of them like this, Qingge Enchanting, who was still angry, suddenly lost his temper. "Can you let me know in advance?"
It makes her think that the two of them are desperate because of a misunderstanding!
"It's not a scramble." The man in black shook his head.
"What do you mean?" Qingge enchanted that she was confused by the cold wood's few words. "Could it be that you were just desperate?"
I took a deep look at the snow in the north mountain, which had been changed into a white robe. The cold eyes of the man in black unconsciously brought a little warmth when they fell on Qingge's bewitching body. "She's the only defeat I've ever had since my assassination."
So, it's not a competition.
