Chapter 8 The Kindness of the Old Man is Deep
March brought Yutian together, mainly because there were too many chambers of commerce in Dragon City, and she didn't know which one Yutian was talking about.
Yutian understood her intentions and led the way in front, and the two were silent all the way.
After a while, March got his wish to meet Mr. Guiya, who had a lupine towel and a mustache. This person is a well-known profiteer in Dragon City, and he is best at buying low and selling high to earn the difference.
"Hello sir, I heard that you have a thousand-year-old He Shou Wu in your hands." March made a salute to explain the intention.
"Make a price, I'll sell it if it's suitable." Mr. Guiya shook his fan and laughed.
"Fifty gold coins."
Yutian, who was listening, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. The price offered in March is not high. In Fantasyland, one gold coin can provide food and clothing for an ordinary family of three for a year. It's not good to have so much money to do anything, but you want to save a stranger, maybe it's still an NPC...... He shook his head secretly, he didn't expect that he had a senior sister of the Virgin.
"Yes, but you have one more thing to do for me." Mr. Guitani was obviously extremely pleased with the offer.
"What's the matter?"
"I have a shipment to be sent to the Flame Island, leaving tomorrow, I hope you can be a bodyguard."
"No problem, give me He Shou Wu first, I'm in a hurry to save people."

After taking the medicine, the Assassin's injuries quickly improved, and within a cup of tea, he was awake and opened his eyes.
"It is worthy of the thousand-year-old He Shou Wu, and the effect is extraordinary." Thistle praised.
The assassin looked around and saw that the furnishings in the house were obviously family doctors, and he roughly understood the situation, and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency, for your help." ”
"Don't dare to be, you should thank me for being a disciple." Thistle said.
The assassin bowed his hand to Yutian, "Thank you, Your Excellency, for your rescue." ”
"Wrong, wrong, it's my junior sister who saved you." Yuda said with a smile.
The Assassin paused, his face feverish and embarrassed. Fortunately, he was covered and others couldn't see it. He turned to the only woman in the room and arched his hand, "Thank you, Your Excellency, for your rescue." ”
Due to the fact that March used the "Transfiguration Technique" when he was in Nangong Mansion, he did not recognize March as the unlucky pharmacist he had assassinated.
"You're welcome, it's the pharmacist's duty to save lives and help the wounded. It's just ......" March deliberately showed a look of embarrassment.
"What does the girl need help with?" The assassin did take the bait, but it was just this familiar sentence...... I'm afraid I don't think she's an NPC.
"Two things, the first one, in order to save you, I used up an extremely precious thousand-year-old He Shou Wu, worth sixty gold coins." March said slowly.
"No problem, the grace of saving lives is unforgettable, and it will be repaid in the future." The assassin said without hesitation.
If I knew you were so rich, I would have added a little more...... March held back a smile and was about to hurt himself, and continued: "Second, I will escort a batch of goods to Flame Island tomorrow, seeing that you are in good hands, can you join me?" ”
"No problem."
"Then there's work. I'll be waiting for you at the hospital tomorrow. March laughed.
Yuda watched this scene with great interest, and his impression of March changed again.
After the assassin left, Yutian spoke: "I heard that the Nangong family had a fire today, and there were heavy casualties, and even the heir of the family, Nangong Langchen, was buried in the fire. ”
"I just healed him on the front foot, and this happened to the back foot!" March was surprised.
"I don't blame you, it's his fate." Ji Zixun sighed, "Pray tears, your performance has impressed the teacher, it's time to pass this thing on to you." ”
"What's that?" March is in good spirits, and her graduation mission reward is about to be announced, what will it be, a miracle or a magic weapon?
Yutian couldn't help but widen his eyes, staring at the movements of Ji Zixun's hands.
I saw Ji Zixun unhurriedly took out a tattered bag from his arms, stuffed it into March's hand, and said lovingly: "This is a sachet handed down by the ancestor, which has a lot of rare spices in it, and it has the effect of calming the mind and calming the qi when worn closely." ”
What? She was born and died, nine deaths, desperate work, half-dead to complete the task, and then give a broken sachet?
March took the sachet into his arms and looked at Ji Zixun with blazing eyes, expecting him to bring out something good. However, Ji Zixun ignored her gaze and took care of the medicinal herbs.
"I heard that Flame Island is dry all year round, and there are many snakes, insects, rats and ants, so junior sister must be careful on this trip." Amada gloated.
"Senior brother, don't worry, with the blessing of the ancestral master's sachet, I will be able to turn evil into good fortune on this trip, and I will be in danger." March Qiang laughed.

Early the next morning, March packed up and led the Assassin to report to the Chamber of Commerce.
"My name is Tears, what's your name?" On the way, she asked.
"Indigo."
Beichen Yinyin, she silently read the name in her heart, and a smile appeared on her face.
Island of Fire, Sunset Dunes.
Ximen Youqing thought of the name of the place here, and the corners of his lips hooked slightly, revealing a mocking smile.
Here, there is no sunset.
In the vast desert, she was dressed in a white robe, standing with a sword, her long pale blonde hair tied into a ponytail, and her complexion was almost transparent under the sun, but she was not sickly and radiant.
Youqing looked at the vast sea of sand, and her eyes were far away. The elders of Simon told her that in the depths of the sand sea, there was a lost temple with a stone of honor enshrined in it. As long as you obtain the Stone of Honor, you can be recognized by everyone in the family and become the "Destiny of Heaven" of this year.
"Why hasn't the sun gone down yet?" March put his hands on the pergola, squinting at the blazing sun.
"The land is cursed, the night has been lost, and the sun hangs in the sky forever." Yin Jue replied. After a day of getting along, he has realized that March is also a player, and he no longer has the usual sentences to communicate with NPCs like before.
"No wonder it's so arid here, it's desert everywhere...... You seem familiar with the Island of Fire? ”
"I've been cultivating on the island for many years."
What is the concept of many years? In this purgatory-like environment, she didn't want to stay for a day.
Seeing March looking at him with a martyr's eye, Yin Jue smiled slightly, and the masked scarf became a little wrinkled. He took out an ice-blue bead from his bosom and placed it in March's hand.
There was a slight coolness from the part of the skin that touched the beads, and March felt refreshed: "What is this?" It's so cool! ”
"This is the 'fire avoidance bead', which is said to be the treasure of the aquarium, which can ward off fires. Wear it on your body, and it can also make people cool and sweat-free in the scorching heat. ”
Good thing, could it be that Yin Yin was made out of the shadow by the fire of Beichen's house, so he deliberately got this treasure?
"Since there are 'fire avoidance beads', are there also 'water avoidance beads', 'lightning protection beads' and 'wind avoidance beads'?" March laughed.
"The others don't know, the 'water beads' do have them, and they are said to be in the hands of the Fulong family."
"I don't know what will happen when the 'water beads' and the 'fire beads' collide together...... Give you back. "March handed the beads back.
"Take it, I'm used to the temperature here." Yin Jue shook his head and did not accept it.
"Okay then." March put away the beads and secretly thought, the character of Yin Jue must be used to it, but is the player behind him who has only been in the game for ten days really used to it?
"What do you usually do when you're offline?" Yin Jue asked.
"Go to the forum."
"Forum?" Yin Jue looked puzzled, obviously he had never been there.
"Did you rarely play games before?"
"Yes, this is the first holographic game I've played."
No wonder...... An old antique like you, oh no, there aren't many new ones like you...... March smiled and began to give him all the benefits of the popular science forum, as well as the necessity of visiting the forum often.
The sun was scorching, and the two young men walked and chatted with the caravan, one talking with his eyebrows fluttering, the other listening attentively, and time passed quietly like fine sand at the tips of his fingertips.
"Ah...... Ghosts! March suddenly pointed not far away.
Yin Jue looked in the direction of her finger and saw a dried corpse covered in bandages, bouncing and swaying in the desert.
"Don't be afraid, it's a common monster on the island. They are blind and deaf, and are not threatening, but they are sensitive to the smell of living people, especially blood, and it is best not to walk in the desert if they have wounds on their bodies. ”
March realized that this walking corpse was the monster of Flame Island. The wild monsters near Dragon City are common animals, but when they arrive on Flame Island, they become undead creatures, and the painting style changes too quickly......
"It is said that there was once an incomparably powerful country on the island called the Sunset Empire. Hundreds of years ago, the king angered the gods, and the gods sent a curse, so nine suns appeared over the island, baking the land day and night. Within a year, the country was destroyed, and everyone's corpses became walking corpses, and even if they died, they could not be liberated. I don't know what day it will be, there will only be one sun left, and the island will be full of desert, and everything in the past will be buried under the yellow sand. Yin Jue said.
"Anyone dares to live here!"
It is said that the country has accumulated countless riches along with it, and many adventurers often come to seek treasure and many outlaws take refuge here. They built a city on the oasis, which is our destination, Loulan City. ”
"I see, wealth and wealth are in danger." March laughed.
