Chapter 555: See Brother Xiao
"Why are you here?"
Just when Xiao Yan and the others were enjoying the beautiful scenery outside, a person walked out of it, Xiao Yan and they looked at it and found that this person was Brother Xiao who had not seen him for many days.
Seeing Brother Xiao's appearance, Xiao Yan and the others all respectfully gave him a junior salute, even Huang Funan, who is usually dissolute and uninhibited and doesn't give anyone face, now that he saw Brother Xiao, he also respectfully gave him a salute.
"Brother Xiao is good!"
Xiao Xiaogang saw that they hadn't reacted yet, and then he remembered, "Didn't you go to finish the mission?" Coming back so soon? How's the mission going? ”
"We ......"
Huangfu Nan was just about to open his mouth to speak, when he heard Brother Xiao interrupt him.
"Oh, look at my memory, you guys come in first, it's cold outside, don't stand outside." As he spoke, Brother Xiao turned around and took the lead towards the door.
Cold outside? Although it is early spring, everything is recovering, and the weather has just warmed up, but there is still a distance from the cold, and even if it is a real winter, how can they ever be afraid of the cold? How could Brother Xiao not know these things? It seems that this mission is really not as simple as they imagined.
They followed Brother Xiao into this courtyard, and after entering, they found that there was something else here.
It looks like it's just an ordinary courtyard, as soon as you enter the door, you can see the wooden plaque hanging on the door with the word "Nanshan" neatly written with a brush, there are some flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, some flowers and plants have opened, there are all kinds of colors, it looks extremely gorgeous, there is a tree planted in this small yard, the leaves on this tree have all fallen off, only the dry branches remain, even though it is early spring now, but the branches still haven't sprouted.
There is also a set of wooden tables and chairs that look relatively shabby in the courtyard, the shabby ones seem to collapse as soon as people sit on them, on this dilapidated table, there is also a cup of steaming water, and a few empty teacups, there are still a few tender green tea leaves floating in the water, it seems that Brother Xiao should have been drinking tea here just now, but he heard their footsteps, and then walked out.
This courtyard looks extremely ordinary, and it can't even compare to the structure of some ordinary people's courtyards, but if you look closely, you will find the mystery in it.
The seemingly ordinary flowers and plants planted in the courtyard are actually all kinds of precious elixirs, but some of them are not yet ripe, and some have just grown a young shoot, so they look like those ordinary small grass and small flowers, but from the veins of their leaves, the color of the flowers, the number of petals and other aspects, you can find the types of these elixirs by careful observation.
And in this regard, Xiao Yan is extremely good at it, so as soon as he entered the courtyard, he found the preciousness of the things planted in this courtyard, but he was a little puzzled in his heart, every precious elixir has extremely harsh requirements for the surrounding environment, and the soil and temperature required are also different, but why can Brother Xiao plant different varieties of elixirs on the same land and still survive? It seems that I will have to consult Brother Xiao about the cultivation of this elixir later.
There is also the tree that withered in the courtyard, it looks like it is just a very ordinary tree, but if you walk in and smell it carefully, you can smell the faint fragrance emanating from the trunk, and you stand under the tree, through the sun, you can also see the colorful colors contained in the branches, the branches are colorful, and the trunk is fragrant, which is the typical feature of the four seasons reincarnation tree.
Its growth cycle is just the opposite of ordinary trees, budding and flowering in winter, flourishing in autumn, fruiting in summer, and withering in spring, so in this spring scenery, this dead tree looks particularly conspicuous, and people who don't know think that this tree is dead.
And the set of tables and chairs placed in the courtyard is made of the branches of the four seasons reincarnation tree, you must know that the four seasons reincarnation tree is full of treasures, his branches are difficult to break, even the general fairy fire can not help him, in addition to the unique medicinal value, so this tree can be regarded as a thousand gold.
The few pieces that seem to be tea leaves floating in the teacup are actually the leaves of the four seasons reincarnation tree, this kind of leaves can only keep them fresh for three days, and after three days, the leaves will automatically wither and yellow, losing all their medicinal value, and now in this season, it stands to reason that the leaves should have already withered away, but why does Brother Xiao still have such tender green leaves? And it's still such a luxury method to soak in water.
In the whole courtyard, the most ordinary and the most worthless should belong to the plaque, the material of the plaque is just ordinary trees, and the word "Nanshan" on it is also written by Brother Xiao himself, but the word "Nanshan", although Brother Xiao has tried his best to converge the edge, but it can still be seen that the chic and domineering contained in these two words.
"Sit down!" Brother Xiao pointed to the other stools in the courtyard and said, then took out a teacup and poured a glass of water for each of the three of them, "Why are you free to come to me today?" ”
Xiao Yan took a sip of the teacup, and then said to Brother Xiao: "The task you gave us has been completed, so I will come to you first to restore my life." ”
Brother Xiao nodded, he was very satisfied with Xiao Yan's move, he was satisfied, not because they were the first to come to him after they came back, but because they were satisfied that they saw his intention to give them this task.
"Tell me about your mission!"
"Okay, this matter has to start from the fact that we just arrived at Wuliang Mountain......
In fact, Xiao Yan originally wanted Huang Fu Nan to state it, but after thinking about it, he should say it himself, he was afraid that Huang Fu Nan's mouth had no door, what should be said and what should not be said, and finally said it all, or he said it himself, this is easier to grasp.
Xiao Yan calmly recounted the entire story to Brother Xiao, and of course, omitted the part about Xun'er.
"What about the spirit stones, how many did you recover?" After listening to Xiao Yan's statement, Brother Xiao asked calmly.
"About a box and a half! Among them, there are also six black fire spirit stones. "In fact, the number of fire spirit stones that Xiao Yan obtained this time is far more than that, but he didn't tell Brother Xiao all his family background, although Brother Xiao was very good to them, and the master also told them to let them come to Brother Xiao, but the heart of guarding against people is indispensable, besides, in the face of such a huge wealth, even Immortal Venerable will be moved.
But in fact, Xiao Yan really thought too much, and saw Brother Xiao ponder for a moment and then said to them: "Hand over the half of the box, and in addition, add 3 black fire spirit stones, and the rest of the ones will be divided equally between the three of you, right?" ”
"Huh?" Xiao Yan looked at Brother Xiao puzzled, not understanding what Brother Xiao meant?
But Brother Xiao didn't explain too much, but instructed again: "By the way, when you go to reply to the above later, omit the process of your throwing bricks and jades, and directly say that you track them down, and then find these spirit stones, and don't say anything else." ”
After saying this, before Xiao Yan could react, Brother Xiao directly issued an eviction order.
"Okay, I'm tired, let's go, you can go to the place I took Xiao Yan to before, and go to the patriarch to reply to the task."
