Chapter 42: Bargaining
As soon as the three of them arrived at the blue water pool, the fire spirit and Saturn immediately stared at the bamboo basket with their eyes, looking at the basket of fruits in front of them, both of them were salivating and drooling.
Of course, the water fairy also saw the thoughts of the two, but she pretended not to see it, and just introduced the beautiful scenery in the cave to the two, not to mention letting them eat the fruit. "Fire spirit, Saturn, you see, how beautiful the scenery is here! The light here is very bright, you lie in bed, you don't have to worry at all, don't be afraid, even at night, there will be moonlight in the cave, you don't have to light candles all day long. Look at this blue pool, where the surrounding streams converge into a water mirror, and at night, the moonlight is reflected in the pool, forming a silver platter, and the scenery is simply mesmerizing. If you look around here, these vines are all condensed from the roots of thousand-year-old trees, I usually put my clothes on it, and sometimes I will swing on it, and when I am tired, I will lie on it and sleep for a while, swaying and leisurely, which is very fun. β
The fire spirit and Saturn listened to the water fairy constantly introduce the beautiful scenery in the cave, and kept squinting at the fruit in the fruit basket, the delicious fruit made their hearts itch, the water fairy introduced for most of the day, her mouth seemed to have endless words of praise, she said for most of the day, it seemed that she was still unfinished. Suddenly, she vanished.
The fire spirit and Saturn were amazed to find that the water fairy was gone, and they both cried out, "Water fairy, water fairy, where have you been, where have you been?" The water fairies did not seem to hear, or heard, but did not answer them. They only heard from themselves. After a long time of no answer, the fire spirit and Saturn both looked at the fruit basket in unison, Saturn had the courage to say to the fire spirit: "Brother fire spirit, since the water fairy is not here, let's taste what this fruit tastes like first!" The fire spirit licked his mouth, and then replied: "Do you still need to ask, don't you see that my mouth is drooling?" When Saturn heard this, the fire spirit had no opinion, and he didn't have to be polite anymore, so he just reached out and took a watertight peach and ate it in a big gulp. "Ah, it's so sweet. It's so delicious, the water fairy is so blessed to live in such a nice place and such delicious fruits. He really deserves to be an immortal in the spirit world. Saturn kept praising as he ate. The fire spirit also picked up an apple and ate it in a big gulp. This fruit is fragrant and crispy, it tastes sweet and delicious, he ate three in a row, still unsatisfied, and wanted to continue eating, but, just when they both enjoyed the delicious moment, the water fairy suddenly appeared behind them, the water fairy took advantage of their unpreparedness, and immediately made a move, using the stone work, the two stones instantly hit the Shaoyang acupoint of the fire spirit and the water fairy, after the fire spirit and Saturn were hit, they were immediately frozen, the fruit they held in their hands and the flesh in their mouths fell to the ground, they didn't react, I don't know what happened in an instant turned into two puppets, statues, this, it's really ridiculousγ
"Well, my fruit tastes good!"
As soon as the fire spirit and Saturn heard a woman's voice behind them, the voice was so familiar, and soon, the fire spirit concluded that it was the water fairy, and he quickly begged the water fairy for mercy, "Water fairy, I really can't stand you, it's our greedy mouth, we ate your fruit, I'm really sorry, you have a lot of adults, just spare us this time!"
The water fairy sneered, but she didn't mean to forgive the two, but her tone immediately became serious, "It's okay if you want me to forgive you, but you have to rely on me for two things, otherwise, you don't want to leave here, I will tie you all to a tree and let the vine branches entangle you." The fire spirit and Saturn were dumbfounded when they heard this, and they looked at each other. "Ask, water fairy, as long as we can answer it, we will not hide it. β
The water fairy snorted, and then questioned them, "I ask you, when I was dueling with the Jade Rakshasa, why didn't you help in the battle?" The fire spirit replied first: "Water fairy, it was our fault that we didn't help you in the battle, but we really didn't expect you to lose so badly, nor did we expect the Jade Rakshasa to be so ruthless. If you knew this, we would have fought to protect you. β
When the water fairy heard this, he was furious, and immediately scolded: "Bah, you have to protect me to the death, then when I am about to be killed by the Jade Rakshasa, what are you all doing? β
Saturn then replied, "We were going to save you, but King Kong gave us a head start. We don't have a chance to meddle. β
This made the water fairy sound even more disgusting, and she asked the two angrily: "You two shameless things, now that you are in my hands, you dare to be so hard-mouthed, see that I don't kill you." From this day on, you don't want to eat, just starve to death in this cave. This sentence made the fire spirit and Saturn tremble, they were simply frightened stupid, the fire spirit saw that he could no longer quibble, so he simply admitted his mistake to the water fairy, he said to the water fairy bluntly: "Water fairy, it is our fault, we are greedy for life and afraid of death, you know, the jade rakshasa is the number one master in the spirit world, fierce and domineering, at that time, even if we go to save you, it is useless, the three of us are not his opponents together, but there are more wounded." Today, since you have to ask questions, we have no choice but to answer truthfully. If you're angry, then kill me!"
The water fairy snorted and said coldly, "You really think I don't dare. Tell you that I will take your life as easily as pinching an ant to death. However, you have told me the truth today, and I will not delve into you any further. Remember, I, the water fairy, am not the kind of person who is ruthless and unrighteous, and I will never do anything unreasonable. You are in order to protect yourself, but my safety is really hateful, but you are also forced to do so, so I decided to give you a chance to make amends. I don't know what you think. β
As soon as the fire spirit and Saturn heard that there was still a chance to make amends, it meant that the water fairy was conditionally forgiving them. They couldn't help but be overjoyed and immediately agreed. "Water fairy, if you have any conditions, you can say it, we all promise you that we will never break our promises. β
The water fairy didn't believe it, and asked coldly: "You really agreed, and you don't regret it." β
The fire spirit said firmly: "What is there to regret, is it possible that your water fairy will eat us again." β
The water fairy smiled and continued: "Hahaha, after eating you, that's not necessary, but my conditions are a bit harsh, that is, I want you to spend a month with me in the Narcissus Palace." Would you like to?"
When the fire spirit and Saturn heard that they were going to spend a month in the Narcissus Palace, their hearts were tickling, and when they thought of these delicious fresh fruits, the magnificent scenery of their friends, and where they had any opinions, they immediately agreed.
"Water fairy, what kind of harsh conditions can this be, this is simply to let us enjoy the blessings here, what other conditions can we object. β
The water fairy snorted, and then replied coldly: "Enjoy the blessings, think of the beauty, why, you are here to atone for your sins, how can you enjoy the blessings." Let me tell you, I want you to help me heal my wounds, and only after I have recovered from my wounds can you leave. During this month, you are not allowed to move around, I will stay in the secret room all the time, and when I need you, you will bring me tea and water, and if I am short of any medicinal herbs, you will have to go up the mountain for me to pick them. If you encounter a beast, it's up to your luck. How's that, do you have any comments?"
The fire spirit and Saturn immediately became speechless, they seemed to regret it a little, they shouldn't have been in such a hurry to make a statement just now. At the moment, it is difficult to ride a tiger.
"Water fairy, do we have to stay in the secret room all day long, can't we have any free time?"
Faced with the pitiful expression of the fire spirit, the water fairy coldly refused and said: "That's it, there is nothing to discuss, I am exercising, how can I do it without anyone around to serve." If I need to replenish my internal strength, you will have to lend me some and return it to you when I am healed. β
Now the fire spirit and Saturn are dumbfounded, they finally came to visit, they were not allowed to visit, and stayed in the black and mushy house all day, this is not counted, the water fairy's internal strength is not enough, and she has to lend her some, and it is very likely that she will not pay it back after using it, besides, if there is a lack of medicine, the two of them have to go up the mountain to collect medicine, this barren mountain and wild mountains, wild beasts are infested, danger will accompany them at any time, and the water fairy doesn't care, can this trade still be done, and what is even more incredible is that the water fairy still doesn't let the bargain. The fire spirit and Saturn were so mad that they didn't even speak. At the same time, keep Chen Mo.
The water fairy knew that Chen Mo just didn't agree. However, she deliberately pretended to be confused, pretending that the two had agreed, and she said: "Okay, since you are silent, it means that you have no opinion." I'll tell you honestly, as long as you help me get through this month, when I get better, I will definitely promise you to come to my place every year. And I'll give each of you a basket of fruit. In addition, I will send you two bottles of Pure Yang Pill that I have refined myself, how about it, do you still have any opinions?"
The fire spirit and Saturn were silent for a while, and suddenly, the fire spirit cast a color on Saturn, and Saturn immediately understood. , He said pitifully to the water fairy: "Water fairy, please, as long as you can unlock our acupoints, we will listen to you." What do you think. β
The water fairy was very satisfied with this, and she asked the fire spirit again: "How is it, fire spirit, can you also make a statement!"
The fire spirit said flatteringly, "Water fairy, I listen to you, you better let us go quickly, our acupoints are unlocked, so we can wait for you!"
The water fairy smiled, and immediately exercised his strength, sending out two stones, unlocking the acupoints between the fire spirit and Saturn.
