Chapter 14: Spirit-level Herbs

With Maroro as a ready-made guide, the rest of the journey is much easier.

Malloro was very familiar with this forest, and after he offered to carry Zhang Xiaojuan away and was sternly refused, he led the way in front with a depressed expression.

Zhang Xiaojuan followed, and the little hairball was much more casual, and he was very happy to wear it before and after, and he would do the police in advance if he was in danger.

Maloro felt that the little furball had refreshed his perception of Testmon, could it be that all the people he had been exposed to before were fake Testmon?

Along the way, except for witnessing a bloody scene of a demonic beast devouring human flesh, there were no other terrible incidents. In the evening, Malloro found a safe and private place to stay, and the little furball was quite satisfied with the round, and added a circle of urine insurance.

Maloro laughed, "This Tester little beast's territory is quite strong! It's a pity that it's too weak to scare away any high-level magical beasts." ”

The little furball showed a mouthful of cold and sharp teeth at him, disapproving.

Zhang Xiaojuan still trusts Little Furball very much, if it weren't for it, she would have died long ago.

The two of them ate some wild fruits found on the road, and spent the night, and a light rain fell in the middle of the night, fortunately the cloak was added, Zhang Xiaojuan didn't feel cold, but the sound of the ticking rain hitting the leaves disturbed her and couldn't sleep, she hugged the little furball tighter, and then closed the cloak a little. There was a rustling sound not far away, as if something was walking on dead leaves. Zhang Xiaojuan opened her eyes, and two shiny and ghostly things appeared in the dark night, and she knew that they were nocturnal demonic beasts. Maybe it was because there was an extra adult by her side, or a tall and burly swordsman, but she didn't feel scared at all.

The monster lingered not far away, its wandering position was the boundary where the small hairball had urinated, even though the rain diluted some of the smell, but the aura of danger warning was still so strong, the monster lingered for a long time and finally left.

Zhang Xiaojuan looked at the little furball happily, the little guy had woken up for some time, his round black pupils stared at her quietly, and then the wet little tongue licked her face, licked a few times and stopped to stare at her.

Zhang Xiaojuan gently pulled its little derpy hair, and saw that its pupils immediately formed a line, eager to escape, Zhang Xiaojuan smiled and hugged it tightly, his heart was soft and warm.

The next day, Little Furball became very dependent on her, and stayed in her arms and refused to leave. Malloro also wanted to eat a roasted porpoise and was doomed to be disappointed.

Along the way, except for the sound of Fuye piercing the forest, the two rarely spoke.

"Mr. Morales, are your injuries better?" Zhang Xiaojuan found a topic.

Maloro nodded happily, "Not only has the bleeding stopped, but the wound has also healed faster, it must be that the herbs you gave have spirit-grade blood coagulation herbs, and the medicinal effect will be so good." ”

Thinking that those herbs with a glowing light were likely to be the spirit-grade herbs that Malloro said, Zhang Xiaojuan was very happy in his heart and asked, "Spirit-grade herbs? Mr. Morales, are these herbs still graded?"

Maloro nodded, "Of course, you look at the beasts in the forest, it is the demonic beasts that can absorb the aura and cultivate magic, and the demonic beasts are more powerful than the beasts of the same kind! ”

"Then how do you distinguish between spirit-grade herbs?" Zhang Xiaojuan wanted to confirm the conjecture in his heart.

Maloro laughed, "This can only depend on luck, even the most powerful alchemists don't dare to guarantee that they can distinguish spirit-level medicinal herbs, they can only distinguish them from the appearance and medicinal properties of the herbs based on experience, and I don't know the specifics." After speaking, Maloro winked at her, "If you are interested in returning to the town, I will introduce you to an alchemist, he is my good friend and the best alchemist in Tanmon City!"

"Thank you, Mr. Morales!" Zhang Xiaojuan's eyes lit up very excitedly, and he faintly felt as if he had mastered a very great skill, if this was the case, then if she learned to refine medicine and became a very powerful alchemist, wouldn't she be able to fend for herself in this other world.

Seeing that she was well-behaved and polite, Maloro liked her more and more in his heart, and really felt that it would be good if she were really his daughter, Maloro couldn't help but show an old fatherly smile and asked: "Xiaojuan, how can your family rest assured that you came out alone?"

"I don't have a family anymore. Zhang Xiaojuan's tone was low.

Maloro wanted to ask her mother's name, but when the words came to her lips, she changed her words: "What are you going to do when you return to Tammon?

Zhang Xiaojuan really needs his help at this time, she wants to find a safe place to live in Tanmeng City, and she also wants to learn alchemy from his alchemist friends, and she also wants to find some books to further understand and understand the world, and the feeling of being black in her eyes is really insecure.

"That's... Mr. Morales, can you please help me find a safe house, you know, a child like me is in danger, safety is the most important thing, the house doesn't need to be too big for me and the little furball to stay, as for the rent... Can you help me put it on first... I'll find a way to get it back to you as soon as possible, okay?" looked at him with dark wet eyes.

She also has some spiritual-grade herbs, and the money from selling them should be enough for her to pay the rent, as for her and Xiao Maoqiu's living expenses in the future, let's find a way when the time comes.

Maloro didn't think that was a problem, and he smiled and proposed, "If you don't mind, you can come to my house." My family used to be a big family in Tammon City, although I moved back to Aguttes in the early years, but there are a lot of family businesses left in Tammon City, and the residual power is still there, and it is absolutely safe for you to live in my house. ”

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Morales, I'm sorry I would like to rent another apartment. Zhang Xiaojuan was very grateful to this man who met in Pingshui, but she was still unwilling to live in his house.

Maloro has subconsciously regarded Zhang Xiaojuan as a daughter, seeing that she is determined to rent a house alone, the old father's heart is a little uncomfortable, such a well-behaved daughter is put outside, isn't it a sheep into the tiger's mouth? And he knows better than anyone what kind of virtue a man is, no, no, resolutely no!

"Little roll, you have to be obedient, and go to my house to live! My house is big and empty, except for my cousin Carlos and Uncle Joseph, the housekeeper, the rest are old servants of the family. Seeing that she still showed no signs of heartbeat, Maloro turned his mind, "Otherwise, I will rent you an independent small yard, fully furnished, you can move in directly with a small furball!"

Zhang Xiaocurly raised his eyebrows, a little moved.

Maloro added: "The small courtyard is next to the main courtyard, so you don't have to worry about security. There is also a small garden in the yard where you can try your hand at growing herbs if you are interested. ”

"The rent is very expensive, isn't it?" Zhang Xiaojuan was completely moved.

"Then it depends on who you rent it to?" Maloro smiled proudly, "It's definitely not cheap to rent to others, rent it to you, then it's free, you and Little Furball have taken care of me a lot these days, and you should live for free." ”

Zhang Xiaojuan didn't want to take advantage of this, and refused: "Thank you, Mr. Morales, I am very satisfied with the small yard you said, but if you don't charge rent, Xiao Maoqiu and I would rather live outside!"

Why is this kid so brainless, he is too honest and there is no scum left that will not be eaten in the future? The old father Maloro had a headache, so he had to give in for the time being, "Okay, collect some rent appropriately, and give it to me again if you have it, anyway, the yard is empty and empty." ”

That's for the best.

The accommodation problem was solved, Zhang Xiaojuan happily hugged the little furball and kissed it, "Little furball, we have a place to live, I will raise you when the time comes!"

Woo woo, the little furball licked her back enthusiastically.

Maloro actually felt sour in his heart, envious and jealous of the little furball.
