Lin Keqing walked lightly, casually wandering in a wood, and when she encountered a beautiful mushroom or a plant similar to a wild vegetable, she happily leaned over and picked it.

After a while, the bamboo basket in her hand contained a lot of things, although she didn't know if she could eat them.

If Zuo Ming and Wang Ergou were there, they would definitely firmly refuse her suggestion to cook, but after they left, there were only two women left on the scene, and Su Manli looked like the kind of person who "didn't touch the spring water with ten fingers", so cooking naturally fell on Lin Keqing, who was dressed as a maid.

Although it doesn't matter if the congenital master doesn't eat one or two meals, Lin Keqing is just a weak little woman on the surface, so in order not to arouse suspicion, she proposed to cook.

Everyone readily agreed, but they didn't know that it was just an excuse she made to get out of everyone's sight.

Of course, there are individuals who are exceptions.

"Come out! At such a distance, even if that Second Mr. is really a powerhouse in the Dao realm, he can't hear our conversation. Lin Keqing didn't look back, and said while playing with a colorful mushroom.

A figure walked out from behind the tree, dressed in bloody clothes, even his hair was blood-colored, and his face was smiling evilly.

He walked up to Lin Keqing, stretched out his arms, and gestured to give her a hug.

"If you take a step closer, don't blame me for being polite!" Lin Keqing's face was like a peach blossom, the corners of his mouth were smiling, but his tone was like a piece of ice, without the slightest emotion.

The blood boy withdrew his hand without any surprise, and said with a smile: "Sister Keqing is still like this, she can't afford to joke!"

"We don't have a good relationship. Let's get down to business, how did you get here?"

"Heh, I didn't follow you, but I just got a treasure map. I said why did you suddenly disappear last time in Qingfeng Village, it turned out that you eloped with that sunspot...... Tsk, I didn't want Keqing's sister's taste is quite unique!"

"What's the point of taking advantage of my tongue, I just like that sunspot, what's wrong? It's you, actually mixed with the people of the Tianxuan Sect and the Heaven Patrol Prison. ”

"Didn't you notice it? The treasure map is made of the rune paper I taught, so I'm going to investigate it. As for them, they are just using each other.

--Don't go around in circles, but there's news from the Great Elder? What anomalies have you found after lurking around that sunspot for so long?"

"Do you think I'll tell you?"

"Let's not mention this matter for the time being, we have already received a summons, we can't make a move against that sunspot, otherwise with my means, why would I need such trouble!

--I don't think this treasure is that simple, the reason why I took the risk to summon you out is that I hope we can work together at that time, no matter what, we are all disciples of the Xuanyin Sect!"

"Hehe, I heard you right, dignified blood boy, you still need to cooperate with others?"

"In this group of people, except for the sunspot and the hoe-bearer, there is no weakling, just the second Mr. who is suspected of entering the Tao is enough to give people a headache, although I am conceited, but I also have self-knowledge.

-- Besides, the mastermind behind the scenes has not surfaced for a long time, so naturally you should be careful! While they don't know your identity yet, you and I can take care of you and me. ”

Lin Keqing knew what kind of person the blood boy was, of course she wouldn't believe it easily, she pondered for a while, and felt that this matter was not harmful to herself, so she nodded and said: "Just what you say! But my identity is not a last resort, and it cannot be easily revealed." ”

The blood boy smiled and agreed: "That's natural, don't worry, your identity exposure won't do me the slightest." ”

After the two reached an agreement, the blood boy flashed away, and Lin Keqing picked some more mushrooms in the woods before returning from the same way.

Lin Keqing returned with a bamboo basket full load, and saw Wu Qinglan meditating and resting alone, with an iron door leaning not far away.

Several waves of them were temporarily together, although Zuo Ming and the others belonged to Mr. Village, but Wu Qinglan was not, and Su Manli and his party did not trust each other, so they all tacitly maintained a certain distance.

Lin Keqing's heart moved, and she slowly walked towards Wu Qinglan, and before she got close, Wu Qinglan opened her eyes and said softly, "Miss Lin is back?"

"Uh-huh, picked some wild vegetables and mushrooms. Lin Keqing shook the bamboo basket in his hand and nodded and said.

"Then I'm going to bother Miss Lin. Wu Qinglan smiled slightly.

Lin Keqing's eyes swept over the iron door, she didn't care much about the iron door, but Wu Qinglan's abnormal performance when she took the iron door from Zuo Ming's hand surprised her a little.

Because she knew that Wu Qinglan was in the same innate realm as herself, not to mention such an iron door, even if it was several times heavier, it could be lightweight, but Wu Qinglan actually used her true qi at that time to barely catch it, which shows the actual weight of this door.

What is incomprehensible is that such a weight is as light as nothing on the back of a person in the Pulse Gate Realm!

Even if that sunspot has a special bloodline, it will also need to forge the body realm to increase its strength greatly, so there must be something strange about this door.

"Is this Mr. 'Door''s door?" Lin Keqing said, pretending to be curious and reaching out to erase it.

"Don't move!" Wu Qinglan immediately stopped her.

Lin Keqing hurriedly retracted his hand and said timidly: "People are just ...... A little curious. ”

Wu Qinglan asked with some doubts: "The girl has been following the eldest brother for a while, don't you know what is special about this door?"

He was also very curious about the iron gate, it was extremely heavy, and he actually needed to use his true qi to move it, even if the whole body was made of dark iron, it couldn't reach such a weight!

When no one was paying attention, he once imported the true qi to investigate, but the true qi was like a mud cow entering the sea, completely swallowed by the iron gate.

In addition, although the iron gate was in tatters, he could not damage it in the slightest with his own sword.

You must know that his sword is the inheritance weapon of the Qinglan Sword Sect, mixed with pure gold and dark iron, and it is extremely sharp.

By weight and hardness alone, this iron gate is already a treasure.

Lin Keqing said a little twisted: "Although I am Mr. 'Gate's maid, I have not ...... with Mr. So, not as close as you think.

--He has never left this door since I followed him, and I do wonder why he used it as a weapon, but I only thought it was an ordinary iron gate, so I didn't pay much attention to it.

--Listening to what he said before, I realized that there is such an allusion to this door, which coincides with the absence of Mr. 'Gate', so I want to come and take a look. ”

"Even the people around me don't know the details, this door is very likely to be related to the Ghost Venerable!"

Wu Qinglan thought secretly, reached out and touched the iron door, and smiled slightly: "So that's the case! But the eldest brother asked me to take good care of this door, so I can't neglect my duties, forgive me!"

--Actually, this door is indeed as the eldest brother said, except for the unusually hard and heavy, there is nothing special, the eldest brother cares so much, it should be considered commemorative. ”

"Okay, then I won't bother Wu Gongzi. Lin Keqing nodded reluctantly, turned around and pouted, "What's the big deal about a broken door!

Although the latter words were not loud, they could still be heard clearly by Wu Qinglan's ears, and he chuckled, which also dispelled his suspicions about Lin Keqing, it seemed that he was really just an ordinary little girl.

But soon, he firmly rejected the idea!

"Miss Lin, this is ...... Soup?" asked Su Manli, somewhat uncertain.

The corners of Gao Aotian's eyes couldn't help jumping, Wu Qinglan couldn't help frowning, even Bai Shengxue, who had always had a peaceful face, was a little stunned for a while.

Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, Lin Keqing nodded proudly: "That's right! This is my carefully brewed 'Eight Treasure Health Soup'! Let's try it!"

Mr. Two cleared his throat with an embarrassed but polite smile: "That...... Has Miss Lin ever cooked before?"

"Of course I did! The last time I cooked, Mr. Men' and Mr. Tian ate it deliciously. I also made a lot of innovations in the soup this time.

--You see, this beautiful mushroom, and this fruit, but I took a lot of effort to get it, and by the way, these wild vegetables that I don't know are delicious at first glance, right?

-- Do you know why it's called 'Eight Treasures Health Soup'? Because there are exactly eight kinds of ingredients in this soup, and we have exactly eight people now, and this is the providence ...... God."

Everyone looked at this pot and didn't know what it was, listening to Lin Keqing's triumphant introduction, their expressions were a little complicated, and they inexplicably felt a sense of admiration for Zuo Ming and Wang Ergou who "ate deliciously".

"This god is not hungry!" Gao Aotian sighed in his nostrils to the sky, and turned away arrogantly.

Wu Qinglan hurriedly took out a piece of cake from her pocket and said with a smile: "I still have some dry food here, so leave this soup for you to drink." ”

Then, the rest of the people found various reasons to leave.

Lin Keqing looked at the untouched pot of soup in front of him, but a strange smile flashed at the corner of his mouth.

......

Zuo Ming took the iron door handed by Wu Qinglan, felt that familiar feeling, and felt a lot more at ease.

"Why did the eldest brother come back so soon?, could it be that he encountered any difficulties?" Wu Qinglan asked.

Zuo Ming waved his hand, smiled slightly, and showed his snow-white teeth: "No, it was unexpectedly smooth, the specific location has been determined, and you can act tonight." ”

Then, he gave a general account of what he had seen and heard on the road and what was going on inside the mine.

"Is there anything unusual in the mine?" asked Sumanli.

Zuo Ming thought to himself, does it count as picking up a piece of gold? But he said: "It's nothing abnormal, but Ergou dug a few times with a hoe, and it doesn't look like there is a treasure." ”

Everyone thought about it for a while, and now they didn't see how to be willing to see it with their own eyes, and asked Zuo Ming and Wang Ergou a few details questions.

Although no valuable clues have been obtained, and it is still impossible to know the purpose of the mastermind, it is certain that there is no danger in the mine on the surface.

Maybe when everyone shows up in the mine, the mastermind behind the scenes will be revealed.

So, everyone decided to take a short rest and act as soon as it was dark.

Suddenly, Wu Qinglan seemed to remember something, hesitated for a while, and then slowly walked in front of Zuo Ming and pointed in one direction:

"Big brother, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Miss Lin worked hard to make a pot of soup and keep it for you!"
