Chapter 51, Thunder Mountain (1)
"Okay." Nalan Xin followed closely beside him.
"What do these nobles want to bet on? Big or small? ”
The owner of the gambling house personally went out, and as early as when the people in the gambling house found out that Nalan Xin had entered, they hurriedly told the boss.
Nalan Xin's deeds are not a secret in the Imperial City of Tianyuan Kingdom, he is a mortal, and he has heard of it more or less.
In order to prevent Nalan Xin from making trouble, the owner of the gambling house personally stepped out to let Nalan Xin easily win some money and quickly send the plague god away.
"I'm betting big."
Qi Yunyan placed the hairpin in the circle with the word "big" written on it, and then put his hands behind his back and smiled confidently.
"I'm betting big."
"I'm betting small."
"I'm betting small."
"I'm betting small."
……
"Buy it and leave!"
"Buy it and leave!"
"Buy it and leave!"
When no one placed any more bets, the owner of the gambling house picked up the equipment for shaking the dice and shook it vigorously.
After a long time, the owner of the gambling house pressed the dice shaking equipment on the table.
"Open!"
A shout!
"It's big!"
"Ahem!"
"How so!"
"Lost again!"
Some people are happy, some people are angry, and some people are sad.
The people in the gambling house, with all kinds of strange expressions, you can see enough and see clearly at one time.
"This son, you won, this is one hundred taels, please take it!" The owner of the gambling house politely took a silver ticket and handed it to Qi Yunyan.
Qi Yunyan didn't answer for a long time, and said: "I'm lucky today, I'm happy, just take thirty taels, and sell the rest to the guys in the gambling house to drink some tea." ”
"This ......"
The owner of the gambling house didn't expect that the son in front of him didn't love money, but the owner of the gambling house put thirty taels of silver into the money bag and handed it to Qi Yunyan.
Qi Yunyan knew in his heart that because of Nalan Xin by his side, the owner of the gambling house deliberately let them win money, and he was embarrassed to take more.
Qi Yunyan accepted it, came out of the gambling house, and Qi Yunyan personally inserted the hairpin into Nalan Xin's head.
At this time, Qi Yunyan really observed Nalan Xin's appearance, she was so beautiful, so beautiful that it attracted people's hearts.
Qi Yunyan's heart was pounding, he had never felt like this when he grew so big.
Could it be that he was moved by the girl in front of him, no, no, they had only known each other for a short time.
It can be said that it has been less than two hours since they met, and they don't even know Miss Nalan's name, how can this be, it is not too casual.
Zi said: Don't look at indecent acts!
Qi Yunyan hurriedly suppressed his constantly beating heart, his ears were a little red, and said, "Let's go buy three horses and some equipment and set off." ”
Nalan Xin nodded, because when Qi Yunyan's sleeve touched her cheek just now, she also felt an inexplicable heartbeat, and she couldn't say why.
Qi Yunyan bought three batches of horses, some iron rods, a thick iron rod, some ropes, and of course some pills to ward off poisonous insects and miasma.
Pontil?
Cordage?
They really want to go to the Thunder Mountain and pick the Thunder Flowers.
Those things are used to attract thunder and lightning attacks, and sure enough, they are not simple people, and perhaps their identities are even more simple.
The reason why Nalan Xin knows how to avoid thunder and lightning is the credit of Ye Ghost Axe, he has been doing some small experiments all year round, Nalan Xin has been observing from the sidelines, and over time, he has become familiar with it.
After a day of fast horse running, they finally came to the foot of the Thunder Mountain.
The mountain roads are rugged, and the horses are not suitable for going up the mountain.
Nalan Xin and Qi Yunyan found a house at the bottom of the mountain, gave them the horses to take care of, and paid some silver as a reward.
Qi Yunyan and Tridacnus each carried some iron rods and ropes on their backs, while Nalan Xin carried water bags and godmothers to follow.
"Why aren't you curious about what we're doing with these things?" Qi Yunyan looked at Nalan Xin beside him and spoke.
Along the way, Nalan Xin never opened his mouth, which made Qi Yunyan very suspicious.
"Childe has a place to carry these things for his own use, you didn't say that you came to this mountain to collect medicine for your mother, but this is Lei Death Mountain, and the medicinal materials you are talking about must be Thunder Passing Flowers."
"You ......"
Qi Yunyan looked at the tall and thin woman in front of her, not only did she feel that she was too smart, but her words were too straightforward, it was okay in front of him, but if she was in front of the bad guys, she would suffer a big loss.
In fact, Nalan Xin has studied medicine with Ye Ghost Axe since he was a child, and how much Nalan Xin has learned from Ye Ghost Axe's flamboyant kung fu.
It's just that in front of Qi Yunyan, Nalan Xin somehow, she is attentive to him, and she doesn't hide it if she has something to say.
What the hell is going on? Nalan Xin couldn't say it for a while, perhaps, this is the feeling of the girl's heartbeat.
"Girl, our trip is to pick thunder flowers, but the process is too dangerous, you better not come with us, just wait for us at the bottom of the mountain."
"Childe, you ......" Tridame wanted to stop Qi Yunyan from telling his true purpose, but he didn't expect him to say it too quickly.
In the image of the Tridacn, Qi Yunyan is not such a person.
"It's all here, what do you say, this girl also has to see it, you don't even have martial arts and dare to break into the Thunder Mountain, what am I afraid of."
She...... Unexpectedly...... Knowing that I don't have martial arts
Could it be that she grabbed my wrist, and that reckless act was just to test my martial arts......
What kind of woman is she......
"Well, if you can't protect the girl when the danger comes, please forgive the girl."
"Rest assured, I can protect myself." Nalan Xin walked ahead without looking back.
Walking and walking, they walked a lot to reach the halfway point of the mountain, and this Thunder Mountain is really too high.
The mountains are full of tall and stout trees, strange flowers and plants, and I have never seen them.
They don't dare to touch it easily, in case it gets poisoned juice, it's not good.
The miasma on the mountain became more and more severe, and they each took medicine to avoid the miasma and continued to move on.
"Young man, don't go any further."
A silver-haired old man, carrying a basket and a sickle, walked down.
"It's getting dark, and it's dangerous on the mountain. Go back quickly! ”
"Since it's dangerous, how can you, old man, come and we can't?" The clams are poor.
"Young man, you can't say that. If it weren't for my wife's sudden illness yesterday, I would never have come to this Thunder Mountain today anyway. Calculate the time, tonight the thunder flower will bloom, and then the entire thunder mountain will be full of thunder and lightning. The god of thunder and the god of electricity are angry, and if they don't do it well, everyone who goes up the mountain will be wiped out. Young people, if you don't want to die, just listen to the old man's advice, don't go up the mountain again, don't go up the mountain again. ”
The silver-haired old man became more and more agitated as he spoke, as if his words were not convincing, and he was very angry.
