022 Sudden change
Not long after entering the shady slope, Qu Xiaoqi's eyes lit up.
The red and eye-catching fruit, as well as the ginseng leaves that she had been studying on the computer for more than an hour!
"Wait a minute." Qu Xiaoqi's eyes lit up and he walked towards the plant.
The group looked at Qu Xiaoqi strangely, Ren Yao raised his eyebrows, and said, "Ginseng? ”
Qu Xiaoqi looked at Ren Yao vigilantly, looking a little like a cat protecting the baby.
Ren Yao smiled dumbly and said, "I won't rob you, don't worry." ”
"Thank you very much." Qu Xiaoqi retracted his previous expression and showed a rather bright smile.
Now the problem is how to dig up the ginseng, and she has no tools to dig ginseng.
Do you want to paint your hands?
Looking at his calloused hands, Qu Xiaoqi gritted his teeth, people die for money, birds die for food.
Qu Xiaoqi carefully threw away the soil, but fortunately, the soil was soft enough. Soon, Qu Xiaoqi saw the appearance of ginseng.
Ah Qing helped Qu Xiaoqi dig on the side, looking very serious, and his fingers didn't touch the ginseng at all.
Now Ah Qing's IQ is as high as that of a ten-year-old child, and he knows some things very clearly, and sometimes he just doesn't know how to express it.
After reading and writing books and learning about the world, he is no different from a normal adult man.
This ginseng is not big, not as thick as a finger, and it seems that it is too short.
Qu Xiaoqi was a pity for a while, and he didn't know how much silver such a ginseng could sell.
Ren Yao smiled and said, "Don't be so discouraged, if you want to sell it for a good price, just sell it to me." ”
"You need ginseng?"
"I don't really need it, but it's just a silver and two can be a smile, why not do it?"
"You're just a scholar, how much silver do you have." Qu Xiaoqi carefully put the ginseng in his arms, and was very dissatisfied with Ren Yao's frivolous attitude.
"Don't look at my low status, my monthly income is a lot, one or two gold a month! It's more than enough to buy this ginseng in your hand! ”
"Save up your gold and marry a daughter-in-law." Qu Xiaoqi didn't take Ren Yao's words too seriously, she felt that ordinary people would not pay too high a price to buy things that they didn't need.
It's better to go to the old doctor and ask him to pay a reasonable price.
"Don't you still trust me?"
Qu Xiaoqi raised his eyebrows, isn't this an obvious thing.
Then Qu Xiaoqi said with a serious face: "Thank you for not grabbing ginseng with me just now, and I also know that you can't beat Ah Qing." ”
"It's not good for a woman to be too smart."
Qu Xiaoqi didn't pay attention to Ren Yao anymore, she was in a good mood after successfully finding the first ginseng, and her eyes looked around.
With such a good start, she will definitely have everything going well after that.
The ideal is very plump, the reality is very skinny, Qu Xiaoqi was once again crushed by reality.
By noon, it was almost time to reach another mountain, and Qu Xiaoqi still hadn't found the second ginseng.
According to Qu Xiaoqi's thoughts, she wanted to go out with Ah Qing to collect firewood, but she didn't expect to be stopped by this group of people.
Ren Yao and Young Master Sun didn't let her leave at all, and this was also the first time Qu Xiaoqi felt Young Master Sun's existence.
Along the way, Young Master Sun was really quiet, and sometimes Xu Zixin went to talk to him, and he would reply with a sentence or two.
The rest of the time, he was in a muffled hurry, trying to lower his presence.
Qu Xiaoqi didn't make any comments on this, she just wanted to escape from here.
Ren Yao whispered in Qu Xiaoqi's ear: "I know you noticed something, so I can't let you and Ah Qing leave, you are our means to save our lives." ”
Qu Xiaoqi glanced at Ren Bai and said, "If you don't die, you won't die." ”
Ren Yao chuckled, "If we don't make any moves, how can you earn silver taels?" You're funny. ”
Qu Xiaoqi had goosebumps all over his body, and subconsciously stayed away from Ren Yao, this kind of person is really too indebted.
Qu Xiaoqi also noticed that the group of people from the rivers and lakes had been scanning Ren Yao and himself, but it was Young Master Sun and Ah Qing who made them vigilant.
However, the undercurrent between them was very small, and Young Master Sun himself and Xu Zixin did not notice it.
After all, Xu Zixin still thought that this was just a parade, and he would go back when he had had enough.
With Ah Qing, the person who killed the wild boar with his hands, there is no danger at all.
In the end, it was those Jianghu people who went to collect firewood, and Qu Xiaoqi was forced to cook lunch for them.
The ingredients are only pork, and there are no seasonings, so no matter how different they are, that is, those flavors.
So Qu Xiaoqi simply roasted and ate it, which was more convenient, didn't need water, and tasted very good.
I just hope that the aroma of the barbecue doesn't attract large beasts.
Fortunately, after lunch, there was no sound of beast activity, and the group left after eating and drinking.
There wasn't much water left, and they needed a water source to store some water now.
Xu Zi'an pouted all day long, his interest was not high, and his whole body was expressing his desire to go home.
This small appearance makes people laugh and feel distressed.
Qu Xiaoqi didn't expect this little guy to be so stubborn, and shook his head helplessly, hoping that what she and Ren Yao thought was fake.
Along the way, Qu Xiaoqi looked around, there was really no shadow of ginseng leaves, could it be that all the nutrients in this mountain were used to supply such a ginseng?
Maybe digging a little deeper to find ginseng?
"When will it arrive? It's almost sunset. Xu Zi'an asked, his voice was a little hoarse, obviously he was too tired to do it.
"It's almost there, it's ahead."
Qu Xiaoqi became nervous and said, "Little boy, come and hug it, you have hugged it all the way." ”
The Jianghu people glanced at their accomplices, nodded, and handed Xu Zi'an to Qu Xiaoqi.
Xu Zi'an was a little reluctant and wanted to struggle, but was separated by Qu Xiaoqi's glare.
Xu Zixin saw that Ah Qing did not torture Xu Zi'an like before, so he did not open his mouth to stop it.
It was indeed quite tiring to walk all the way with Xu Zi'an.
The sky was a little dark, and Qu Xiaoqi felt that the road ahead was not quite right. It's just a cliffside, and there's no way to climb another mountain!
"Action!"
The pathfinder in front shouted, and then several people from the rivers and lakes surrounded Young Master Sun.
Qu Xiaoqi's pupils shrank, the first time she watched such a bloody scene, she didn't have time to save Young Master Sun and had already fallen to the ground.
The broadsword left a deep mark on his chest, and blood continued to flow out, and soon they were dying.
"Brother, help me kill them and give you a hundred taels of silver." Ren Yao said to Ah Qing with a calm face.
Ah Qing was unmoved, and Ren Yao's eyes kept on the young man.
Unexpectedly, the young man suddenly kicked the person next to him, causing the formation of this group of Jianghu people to be disrupted.
Xu Zixin and the shopkeeper were so frightened by this scene that they sat on the ground and couldn't react for a while.
"Old Five, what are you doing?"
Seeing that the young man killed a person of his own in a neat move, the leader of the Jianghu people looked at the young man in shock.
The young man's figure suddenly changed, and he was much taller in an instant, and he tore off the skin on his face, revealing a somewhat bewitching face.
"Chaoguo is really interesting, the rivers and lakes of Chaoguo are really as rumored, thank you for taking me to see a lot in the past few days. I still have some things, I left first, I can't beat those two people, you ask for more blessings. ”
Before leaving, the young man glanced at Qu Xiaoqi and said, "If he loses you, when you have no money and are lonely, go to Xisen to find me, for the sake of your good cooking skills, I will reward you with food." ”
Qu Xiaoqi smiled, and he couldn't wait to get rid of the person in front of him, it was not appropriate to call him a young man now.
He's a charming man in his twenties!
"Remember that my name is Gong Jianyan, those fools, how could the second young master of the Sun Hou Mansion not even have the ability to protect himself, so he looked for someone to go up the mountain?" The voice was getting farther and farther away, and the man was already missing in front of them.
Ren Yao gently rubbed his chin with his fingers, and said with a hippie smile at Qu Xiaoqi: "You earned it, Gong is the surname of Sen Guo, of course, if that one is willing, Sen will also be in the court later." While saying this, Ren Yao glanced at Ah Qing with his spare eyes, but he didn't see any reaction from him, which made him a little disappointed.
Qu Xiaoqi snorted from her nose, she was not interested in this Gong Jianyan at all, and even felt that he had a bubble in his head.
There is also Sun Hou Mansion, when he heard the name Ren Yao by chance, Qu Xiaoqi thought it was a chivalrous chivalry, but now it seems that this is a blatant pseudonym.
Qu Xiaoqi wanted to leave here now, and as soon as he turned around, he heard the Jianghu people speak: "Second son Sun, you don't want your friend to go to see the king of Hades because of you, right?" ”
"You're really irritating people." Ren Yao smiled as before, so that people couldn't see their joy and anger.
In a sense, this second son of Sun is much more difficult to deal with than Gong Jianyan.
"Brother!" Xu Zi'an struggled to get out of Ah Qing's clamp, Qu Xiaoqi patted him on the back and said to Sun Ergongzi: "You just said that Ah Qing will give him a hundred taels of silver if he kills a person, right?" ”
Before Sun Ergongzi could respond, Qu Xiaoqi said to Ah Qing: "Attack his wrist with a knife." ”
With a scream, Qu Xiaoqi hurriedly took over Xu Zi'an, Ah Qing's figure burst out, and directly brought Xu Zixin and the shopkeeper back to Qu Xiaoqi's side.
Next is the private matter of Sun Ergongzi, Qu Xiaoqi didn't plan to make the money for killing people.
"Hey, you guys ......" Second Prince Sun seemed to want to stop them, and it was really difficult to have a pair of three.
At this moment, the anger and resentment of the three people are all on themselves, even if they don't have the intention of killing themselves, they must kill themselves.
Sun Ergongzi's eyes glanced at Xu Zixin's back, and there was a hint of murder in his eyes.
Xu Zixin suddenly shook his body, and the speed of his steps slowed down.
No one here knows about the situation in Sun Hou Mansion, and even Xu Zixin only knows that this Young Master Sun has a very high status in the capital.
"Young Master Xu, you need to be careful when you go back." Qu Xiaoqi reminded with kind words.
"I know." Xu Zixin closed his eyes a little weakly.
