Qi Ming carefully looked at the map of the Western Realm that Ye Fu had prepared before in his free time these days, and paid special attention to the location of the Black Demon Sect, because the Black Demon Thunder, one of the two major mines he was looking for, was in the Black Demon Abyss near the Black Demon Sect.

I learned from Meng Xing that Grass Soul Village needs to gather three thousand one-foot-tall soul flowers every year, and Meng Xing and Meng Kexin need to hand over five one-foot-high soul flowers, and if they can't hand them over, they will be in big trouble.

The village chief of Grass Soul Village, the disciple of the Refining Soul Hall, was reprimanded, and in the early stage of the Spirit Sea Realm, he also played the responsibility of supervising the Grass Soul Village.

Qi Ming learned from Meng Xing about the village chief's residence, and then turned around and went into the house, before going to find the village chief, he was going to practice the soul searching technique.

Qi Ming's soul was already very strong, and he didn't encounter many difficulties in cultivating the soul searching technique, and after a night of cultivation, he was almost ready to use it.

"Brother Ye!" Meng Kexin walked in from outside the door, ran to Qi Ming and said, "It's okay today, I'll take you to the flower field to have a look?"

"Okay!" Qi Ming smiled and walked out of the compound with Meng Kexin.

Yesterday, Qi Ming stood at the door, and at a glance, there were flower fields everywhere, planting soul flowers.

Meng Kexin took Qi Ming and walked north.

"Look, isn't that a plague?"

"Who is the man next to the plague?"

"Anything close to her will not end well, get out of the way!"

"No matter who that person is, I bet he won't live for three days!"

"The plague deserves to die! If she lives, she will affect others!"

......

On the way, they met other flower slaves who pointed at Meng Kexin, and when they saw Meng Kexin coming, they all retreated, as if they had seen something terrible.

Qi Ming realized this situation, and was stunned for a moment, and then became angry. He looked at Meng Kexin and found that Meng Kexin's face was a little paler, his face did not change, and he concentrated in the direction of the flower field.

But Qi Ming could clearly feel her emotional fluctuations, Qi Ming knew that it was because everyone had been like this to him, so she would not be surprised, but those words were too hurtful, even if she heard a lot, she still couldn't guarantee peace.

Shout!

A fist-sized stone smashed at Meng Kexin's head from a distance.

Meng Kexin was stunned for a moment, and she couldn't react, so she could only watch that the stone was about to hit her forehead.

At this moment, a hand reached out from the side, blocking the stone.

Qi Ming stood in front of Meng Kexin, looking at the young man who threw a stone not far away with anger in his eyes, if it weren't for the young age of the other party, Qi Ming would definitely have made a move.

"Hmph, I'm here to save you!Otherwise, you'll definitely be killed by her!" the young man said loudly to Qi Ming, not afraid of Qi Ming's angry eyes.

"I don't have the same knowledge as you, go away!" Qi Ming said coldly.

"Do you know that her mother died on the first day she was born, her father died the next day, and her brother died on the third day...... She was a cursed person! Whoever was with her would die! There was a man in the village who did not listen to her and befriended her, but after only three days he drowned! If you did not listen to me, you too would die!" cried the young man.

Meng Kexin's eyes overflowed with tears, falling down in a hurry, and she couldn't help but sobbed quietly.

"Get out of here!" roared in unison.

"You ......" The young man was intimidated by Qi Ming's momentum and only said one word.

Meng Kexin felt Qi Ming's anger, reached out to wipe away his tears, and his back became clear again, it was so tall, as if he could help her block those vicious attacks.

"Hmph, since he's looking for death, don't pay attention to him!" An adult came next to the young man and snorted coldly, dragging the young man away.

Qi Ming turned around and reached out to wipe the tears from her face, "Don't listen to their nonsense!"

"Brother Ye, grandpa said that I won't bother you......" Meng Kexin was a little anxious and wanted to explain.

"You don't bother anyone, and the death of your family has nothing to do with you. Qi Ming interrupted Meng Kexin softly and said, even if those people really died because of Meng Kexin, he didn't care, because his life wasn't saved by her?

Meng Kexin saw Qi Ming's gentle smile, and tears flowed down again.

"Don't cry! We won't see these people anymore, and we'll stop listening to them. Qi Ming said.

"I just remembered my brother," Meng Kexin said, wiping away tears, "I haven't seen him yet, and he's gone." ”

"From now on, I will be your brother, and I will protect you. Qi Ming said.

Meng Kexin said: "Then you are not allowed to die." ”

"I'm not going to die that easily. Qi Ming said, "In the future, I will take you to my hometown, and you will definitely be able to make a lot of friends there." ”

"Really?" Meng Kexin burst into tears and laughed.

"Really, I have a younger sister who is as cute as Kexin, and you must be good friends. I had been away from home for a long time and had not been back to see. "Qi Ming really misses Chiyang Town a little, thinking that when he helps his master resurrect his dream, he will definitely go back to Yueling to take a look.

"I'll go back to your house with you when the time comes. Meng Kexin said.

......

Meng Kexin took Qi Ming to a separately divided flower field, "This is my family's flower field. ”

"How come, why is there one less soul flower?" Meng Kexin glanced at the soul flower, and his expression changed greatly.

Qi Ming also looked into the flower field, which was about dozens of acres of land, and there were tens of thousands of soul flowers planted.

The soul flower is a flower with black stems and leaves, and there are nine petals spread out.

But most of the soul flowers in the flower field were less than half a foot, and the branches and leaves were towering, lifeless.

About a tenth of the soul flowers were half a foot tall, and the branches and foliage were spread out, in contrast to the dwarf soul flowers.

In addition, there are four soul flowers that are more than a foot high, and all of them are a foot and a half high, standing sparsely among the flowers, proudly raising their heads, like kings.

Meng Kexin ran straight to the flowers and looked at the traces on the ground, "The soul flower has disappeared, what can I do?"

For the flower slave, the soul flower is more important than life, if you can't hand over five soul flowers, then you have to die.

Meng Kexin's anxious tears were about to fall.

Qi Ming walked forward quickly and asked, "How many days are left before the Soul Flower?"

Meng Kexin said: "I have to hand it over to the village chief tomorrow, so I only came to check the soul flower today." The village chief strictly forbids stealing soul flowers, how can soul flowers disappear? Brother Ye, what should I do?"

"Don't worry, there will definitely be a way. Qi Ming comforted him, and said, "Is there anyone in the village who has more qualified soul flowers, you can go and buy one!"

"There are a few big families in the village who have extra soul flowers, but they won't sell them to me. Meng Kexin replied.

"Don't worry, this matter is left to me, I have a way to solve it. Qi Ming said with a smile.

"Brother Ye, do you have any good ideas, let's hear about it. Meng Kexin said, "I'm up and down in my heart, by the way, there is one more Brother Ye in our family this time, I don't know if the number of soul flowers handed over will increase?"

Meng Kexin just thought of this question, and was a little anxious.

"Ke Xin," Qi Ming said, "This matter will be handled by me and Grandpa, so you don't have to worry about it, just concentrate on improving your cultivation." ”

Meng Kexin looked at Qi Ming's calm face, as if she was infected, and her mood was a little better, "Then let's go back and tell me about the loss of Grandpa's Soul Flower!"

When Meng Kexin and Qi Ming returned home, Meng Xing had just returned home from the village, and he had failed to borrow soul flowers from those big households.

If the number of soul flowers is not enough, one of their grandfathers and grandchildren will have to die, and those big families have persuaded Meng Xing to hand over Meng Kexin and be executed. But after all, it was his own granddaughter, how could he bear it?

From the time he personally pulled up the soul flower and put it into the medicine, he thought that even if he died, he would pave a way for Meng Kexin, although the road was full of fog, and it was not clear whether there were thorns or not, but it was a hope after all, wasn't it?

"Grandpa! The soul flower of the flower field has lost one!" Meng Kexin looked at Meng Xing and said hurriedly.

Meng Xing was stunned for a moment, he obviously told Meng Kexin not to go to the flower field these days, but he didn't expect her to go anyway, he nodded and said with a smile: "I already know, I'm trying to find a way to solve it, don't worry." ”

"Kexin, you go to cultivate first, and I'll discuss it with my grandfather. Qi Ming said to Meng Kexin with a smile.

Meng Kexin felt that his grandfather's mood was wrong, but he was relieved when he saw Qi Ming's eyes, so he turned around and went into the house to cultivate.

Qi Ming asked, "If I can wake up, does it have something to do with the lost soul flower?"

"Your soul was damaged at that time, and only a one-foot-tall soul flower had the effect of nourishing the soul, so ......," Meng Xing said, "But since you promised to protect Kexin, this matter has nothing to do with you, and I will solve it." ”

"How can it be okay? after all, it was eaten by me," Qi Ming said, "Leave this matter to me, and I will solve it!"
