Chapter 140: Reaping the Consequences
When the night came again, Xiao Qingzhu sneaked out again. This time, she didn't go far away, but wore the clothes of the teaching disciple and inspected the entire practice room.
She had already figured out the routine here: every night, except for the guards at the door, the other guards in the building would withdraw. Xiao Qingzhu walked in the corridor in a big way, and no one came to stop her.
At this moment, Xiao Qingzhu walked to the door of a room, and when she looked up, she saw three words written on it: dispensing room.
Xiao Qingzhu's heart moved, and he sneaked in quietly. She had thought that there was no one here, and the moment she came out of the space, she almost sat on the ground in fright. I saw that the master was lying on the table dozing off.
Xiao Qingzhu covered her chest: It's so dangerous, fortunately she fell asleep. She quietly slipped to the master's side, only to see that she was writing some strange prescriptions, and there was a pot of pills in her hand, which looked scarlet. Xiao Qingzhu picked one up and smelled it, only to feel that the taste was sweet and refreshing, which was obviously different from what she usually gave.
This should have been taken by herself.
She looked at the shelf next to her again, and saw rows and rows of gourds on the shelf, Xiao Qingzhu took one of them, poured it out, and saw that it was indeed the scarlet pill. Xiao Qingzhu suddenly had a bad water: she poured out all the medicine in the pot and replaced it with the contents of the gourd, and then quietly put it back.
I had just finished doing this, only to hear the master suddenly snort twice. Xiao Qingzhu was startled, and she hurriedly entered the space. Not long after she left, the master suddenly woke up, she had just had a nightmare, and she was so frightened that cold sweat was on her forehead.
Frightened, she quickly picked up the pot next to her, took out a pill from it and swallowed it. She picked up her pen and continued writing.
At this time, Xiao Qingzhu had already smeared oil on the soles of his feet and slipped back to the bedroom.
Early the next morning, the master unexpectedly did not appear. The three disciples went to her two or three times, but she didn't respond. They only thought that the master master was busy dispensing medicine, so they didn't bother anymore and directly led everyone to start cultivating. During this period, only one disciple asked about Alain's whereabouts, but the other two thought that she was doing the master a favor. A series of strange things were hastily prevaricated.
Just when Xiao Qingzhu thought that the matter was over, what he didn't expect was that in the afternoon of the same day, the North Helm Lord actually came here in person.
At this time, Xiao Qingzhu was still shaking his head in the practice room with everyone. The moment the North Helm Lord appeared, Xiao Qingzhu immediately bumped into his eyes.
An inexplicable feeling of suffocation made her shudder. Fortunately, everyone looked at the North Helm Master, and he didn't notice Xiao Qingzhu. Xiao Qingzhu hurriedly retracted her gaze, she shook her head, pretending to be stupid.
The North Helm Lord looked at the forty or so people in front of him, and couldn't help frowning: "Why are there so few?
One of the disciples replied, "Master has been in the dispensing room and has not come out. I'm ......."
"Then you don't have to call her. The North Helmsman waved his hand, "Go back and tell her that in three days, I will see a hundred people here." Otherwise, you know the consequences. ”
The three disciples looked at each other: 100 people? Now that we can find 10 people, how can we find 100 people in three days?
The three respectfully welcomed the North Helmsman out of the practice room. At the moment when Xiao Qingzhu was relieved, the North Helm Lord suddenly turned back. He looked around the people in the room, and suddenly pointed at Xiao Qingzhu and asked, "How is that cultivator?"
Xiao Qingzhu's heart suddenly rose to his throat: Could it be that he has been discovered? One of the disciples replied, "She is new and doesn't have much spiritual power yet. ”
"Oh. The North Helmsman walked up to Xiao Qingzhu and pinched her chin: "It's a good look, not like the people in the village." ”
Xiao Qingzhu obviously felt his cold fingers pinching his goosebumps. After that night's fight, she had a special dislike for the North Helmsman.
He smelled of death all over his body.
Xiao Qingzhu resisted his desire to beat him, and let him pinch his face to see enough. When the North Helm Lord left, Xiao Qingzhu almost burst out of anger.
Dog thing, pinching the face of the hatred, I remember!
Not long after the North Helm Lord left, a guard suddenly came outside the door to report: Lai Zi has sent someone again!
Xiao Qingzhu was stunned for a moment, and then saw the three disciples with happy faces. One of the disciples said, "Let him in." ”
At this time, Lai Zi was still pestering with the guards at the door, and this time he heard that the people inside passed him in, and Lai Zi immediately showed a smug face: "Look, I'll just say, we are also decent people, how can we not even have the qualifications to go in?"
The two guards looked at each other. Laizi took a little boy and swaggered into the practice room.
As soon as he saw the three big disciples, Lai Zi immediately nodded and said, "My lord, this time I brought a good one, please take a look!"
Xiao Qingzhu looked at it coldly, and saw that it was a little boy dressed in tatters, who looked no more than eleven or twelve years old. Looking at the dirt on the child's face, he knew that this was a beggar on the street.
I don't know what kind of method Laizi used to get such a child!
The child nibbled on the cake in his hand and listened in confusion as they arranged their lives. Unexpectedly, this time they did not take the child directly, but said to Laizi with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work." Sit down and have a cup of tea. ”
Lai Zi nodded and thanked the disciples, and then sat in the practice room. One of the disciples winked, the other understood, and she brought a cup of tea and a pill.
Lai Zi's face immediately changed: "What does this mean?"
One of them laughed, "Didn't you always want to do something in there? I'm giving you this opportunity now." ”
Lai Zi immediately stood up: "No, no, no need, I'm doing things well outside!"
A purple-clothed disciple named Ah Chu's beautiful eyes flashed: "This is the reward of the helmsman, do you dare not eat it?"
Lai Zi was immediately frightened and shortened by three inches: "No, no, it's just that once this thing is eaten, where is the life still alive?"
Ah Chu's face changed suddenly: "Don't toast or eat and drink!"
With a sad face, Laizi knelt down: "I have always been loyal to the North Helm, where is there any neglect? Why do you have to take my life today?"
Ah Chu sneered: "I naturally know your loyalty. It's just that there is a shortage of people in the North Helm now, if you are really loyal, take this pill and help us make up the numbers. ”
Lai Zi gritted his teeth, and he jumped up from the ground: "You unload the mill and kill the donkey! Obviously, I have done so many things for you, and I will not accept such a result when I am about to do it!"
Ah Chuzi grabbed him by the collar and stepped on Lai Zi fiercely. Lai Zi screamed, and Achu took the opportunity to throw the pill into his mouth, and before Lai Zi could speak, he swallowed it with a grunt.
"Ahh
Lai Zi covered his stomach and began to pick his throat, Achu slapped him on the head, and Lai Zi fainted without humming.
