Chapter 9: Selling Yourself to Survive

Seeing Qin Qingzhang's confident appearance, Sundial Che decided to be silent first to listen to what hole cards he had. At the same time, I thought to myself that he probably had too much brain supplement, and it was a 100% coincidence that he appeared in the medicine field. But there will be doubts about the statement of falling into the valley, which shows that this person has a bit of depth in his brain, and he is worthy of being able to perfect the planning of the head of the medicine field.

In the next second, Qin Qingzhang perfectly said what Sundial Che thought at the beginning: "The world is so big, and a woman who can fall from a cliff unexpectedly into the valley can still be uninjured and alive like Miss Tiangong, the old man believes that there is." But if you add the steepness of the hillside around the health valley, if you want an example like Miss Tiangong, I'm afraid you have to choose one out of ten thousand. ”

Qin Qingzhang began to pace slowly beside Sundial Che, like a tiger only looking at its prey, focused and ready to go, he put his hands behind his back, and continued: "The old man is a down-to-earth farmer and medicine merchant, and he only believes in what I can control and see with my own eyes. Such examples of miracles are rare...... For the old man, it can't happen at all. This is ~ It's okay to deceive Mu Tian's stupid boy, but he can't pass the old man's level. ”

Sundial Che's heart was blocked, Qin Qingzhang fully cracked her lie, sure enough, people's mental IQ cannot be underestimated in any time and space, and she felt that her next situation would become more and more bad.

Sundial Che didn't struggle to quibble, pushed back the long waterfall hair that fell on his collarbone, and said with great momentum: "I think, this shows that Jiang is still old and spicy." ”

Qin Qingzhang's smile deepened.

"Although the medicinal materials grown in the valley are not very valuable, the quality and yield of medicinal materials in the health valley are well known. The secret method of planting in the valley is naturally coveted by many unscrupulous people, so the health valley is not a place where unknown people like you can come and go at will. Qin Qingzhang finally stopped in front of Sundial Che.

Qin Mutian's height was inherited from his father, Qin Qingzhang was roughly estimated to be 190 cm, standing in front of her was inevitably a little oppressive, he bent down and looked at Sundial Che at eye level: "The old man doesn't know what you are good at, whether you are unforgettable, or flying away." Since Mu Tian took you to the valley, the old man can only let you go easily when you have learned the secret method of planting in the valley. ”

"It's better to kill a good person by mistake than to let trade secrets have a chance to leak out. Quite the right way to deal with it. Sundial Che said unhurriedly: "Then what do you want?" Lock me up for the rest of my life? ”

"Mu Tian wants to marry you as a concubine, just so that you can be placed under house arrest in the valley, and the old man is happy to see it." Qin Qingzhang said this, and shook his head: "But what the girl of the Que family said is right, now is not the time to tear her face with her mother's family." If you are left behind, Que Longwei's stupid woman who is jealous all day long will definitely make the Qin family restless for three days. ”

Sundial Che realized that Qin Qingzhang in front of her was not the reasonable and righteous master of the valley in the hall, but a cunning businessman, and he must have seen a profitable benefit in her.

But Sundial Che was already a little tired of listening to him going around, holding his hands on his chest, and his face became even colder: "If you have something to say, Gu Lord." ”

The appearance of Sundial Che's practical knowledge made Qin Qingzhang laugh heartily, and his voice was so thick that Sundial's eardrums were painful.

"Miss Tiangong, as Mu Tian said, Bing Xue is smart. When the old man starts, you know the end. ”

Sundial Che stared at the old guy in front of him with a dead fish face expressionlessly, Qin Qingzhang's compliment was simply insulting her IQ, she only cared about what deal he wanted to do.

"This year's climate is abnormal, and the harvest of medicinal flowers in our valley is seriously failing, and if this continues, the Qin family may take away a few medicine shops next year. It just so happens that the Battle King Mansion in the Green God Plain has been recruiting divine doctors for more than ten years to cure the strange diseases of the Nine Princes. When Qin Qingzhang said this, his eyes lit up: "The consultation fee is 500 taels of gold, this figure can help the Qin family survive this extraordinary period." The old man has been watching this amount for a long time, but there has been no suitable candidate to send it over......" At the end of the sentence, he looked at the sundial Che's eyes full of the essence of holding a wishful thinking.

"I won't heal, I'm not afraid I'll hurt you?" Sundial said bluntly.

Qin Qingzhang smiled sullenly at this time, and a cruel smile flashed in his eyes: "This gold 500 taels is sincerity." Even if it is not cured, it will not be recycled, but it will ......"

Sundial Che raised his chin and waited for him to continue, Qin Qingzhang smiled, and his beard twisted: "If it is not cured, the doctor will not be able to leave the Zhanwang Mansion, and he will be lynched for the crime of deceiving the royal family." Because of this, the rewards have always been there, but the number of applicants is scarce. ”

Syllable! Syllable! Syllable!

Sundial Che couldn't help but clapped his hands for him, and sneered: "If you get rid of the invaders of the Health Valley with the hands of others, you can also get a lot of money...... The valley owner's business is good, and there is no harm in all benefits. ”

Qin Qingzhang smiled ambiguously, and began to take out the businessman's three-inch incorruptible tongue: "Yo, Miss Tiangong's words are wrong." If you stay in the health valley, if you end up hurting inside and outside the valley, it won't do anyone any good. Old man, this is giving you a chance to escape. ”

Sundial Che is quite clear about the stakes, although Qin Qingzhang is black-hearted and vicious, what he said is not completely unreasonable, rather than fighting trapped beasts in this deep valley that is called heaven and earth, it is better to gamble on the outside world to take a chance.

Sundial Che exhaled lightly, and he was dealing with Qin Qingzhang, which was more tiring than opening the Buff! He said in a cold voice: "No need to use a mouth cannon, in that case, the sooner you send me out of the valley, the better, so as not to have too many dreams at night." ”

Who knows what Qin Mutian, a psychopath with severe separation anxiety, will do during this period?

Qin Qingzhang didn't understand some of the words used by Sundial Che, but he couldn't pull his face to ask, so he ignored it: "It's just that the War King's Mansion only accepts doctors after the famous family, so please ask Miss Tiangong to pretend to be my Qin Qingzhang's righteous daughter." I will have someone arrange for you a maid, a housekeeper, some clothes, jewelry, and pocket money. ”

Qin Qingzhang grabbed Sundial Che's shoulders, as if he was talking to his daughter: "You have to act like a little bit, my righteous daughter, you can't be too shabby, are you right?" ”

The thought of being able to keep his hands dirty, get rid of the thieves who might have stolen the Qin family's secret cultivation method, and at the same time immediately have a huge amount of wealth in his pocket, he was in a good mood.

Sundial slapped his hands away mercilessly, and said coldly, "When are you leaving?" ”

"At 8 o'clock in the evening, this is the right time for the brother and sister to accompany my wife to make tea." Qin Qingzhang smiled, walked to the door with satisfaction, opened the door and left.

Sundial looked at the closed door and sighed, "At least I can get out of here." ”

Although the road ahead is more auspicious and less auspicious.

At night, the study of the Night Whispering Pavilion is bright, and on the desk made of white glazed stone slabs, there are small gray stone rails clocks and a hand bell from Nanxu Kingdom, and the time points to 7:50. A slender young man in a wooden wheelchair was looking at a stack of Harumi's latest information from his own intelligence agency.

Xiao Xing's heavenly carved face exuded the concentration of a human being, and a few lines of words made his sword eyebrows furrow.

"Tianji Temple reported to the emperor, and the alien star descended to the south of the border"

"The Emperor has sent someone to the south to reconnoiter the movement of the aliens"

"Alien ......" Xiao Xing grabbed the paper, crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the bamboo basket: "Nonsense." ”

Since his mother died under the myth of Tianji Temple, he no longer believes in gods, only in himself. For more than ten years, they have secretly observed that the gang of people in Tianji Temple often pretend to be gods and make profits, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the most corrupt institutions in the Dugu Dynasty.

Helplessly, Tianji Temple is directly subordinate to the emperor, and now the emperor believes in sacrificial divination has reached an almost crazy level, and it can only be said that it is difficult to overthrow the Tianji Temple, which the emperor regards as a treasure. At the moment, there is still a long way to go.

Just as Xiao Xing was silently thinking, the door of the hall was opened, and it was quickly closed, and he knew who was coming by listening to the footsteps.

The probe of the broken army at the entrance of the study seems to be unsure if it is a good time to disturb, usually close to 8 o'clock in the evening, and the master's mood is very bad.

Xiao Xing said coldly: "I have something to say." ”

Po Jun cautiously moved to the Xiaoxing table, and couldn't help but gossip, and whispered: "Ninth Master, I heard that a new doctor is coming to help you treat your illness, it's a girl." ”

Xiao Xing's gaze was still projected on the paper in his hand, and he replied in a cold voice without raising his head: "So what? ”

Concubine Yan is the former emperor, that is, the concubine of his father, who has not been favored by the first emperor for a long time in the palace, and has no heirs.

She had sent people to inquire about the authenticity of Xiao Xing's leg disease many times, and she was greatly relieved after confirming it. Mingdi treats Xiaoxing as an ancestor, and actually despises him very much as a disabled person.

In the palace of the king of war, the stepmother concubine who boasted of the nine princes, in order to establish the "Yan clan of the palace of the king of war", in order to save a nine princes born from a humble background and a nameless concubine, she did her best to invite talents with a benevolent, graceful and generous image. Soon after coming to the Green God Plain, he began to release news to the medicine houses, medical halls, and medical families with prominent backgrounds all over the country, as long as they are willing to come, they will immediately be rewarded with 500 taels of gold sincerity, and they do not need to be returned, and they will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of gold after being cured.

However, if the Nine Princes' health does not improve, they need to be deceitful and infamous, and the doctor will be given poisoned wine by the Nine Princes' Mansion to eliminate harm for the people. And the current emperor, that is, Xiao Xing's half-brother, attaches great importance to the Nine Princes, and in order to hope for a miracle, he also acquiesces in Concubine Yan's misdeeds.

"Ninth Master, aren't you excited? How long has it been since someone came in to treat you? "Breaking the army is silently very excited.

Xiao Xing raised his eyes and glanced at him indifferently: "Come and die, what are you excited about?" It's not all stupid people who only see money and don't see coffins. ”

No one in the outside world knows that Xiaoxing will only get sick at 8 o'clock in the evening ~ 3 o'clock in the morning every day. For more than ten years, he has been the lame and dumb waste Nine Princes of the War King's Mansion, and no one will be interested in a waste royal family. This has provided him with a lot of cover and blocked a lot of attention, so that he has been able to silently make a steady layout in the intelligence and business circles over the years.

But the problem that bothered him the most has not been solved, and that is his own strange disease. At present, he still has to keep a low profile, so that he has always turned a blind eye to Concubine Yan accumulating prestige for himself in his name, or pretending to be a tiger and making a fortune in the mansion.

It is an indisputable fact that he is the ninth prince of Yan Fei's long-term meal ticket for the life of the concubine. Concubine Yan is also a smart person, and it is impossible to do things such as killing chickens and taking eggs. The signboard of the War King's Mansion should be able to be used for a long time.

"That's not what I said, Ninth Master!" Po Jun's right hand was inserted into his waist, and his left hand raised his index finger and shook it, looking like a military advisor, and said mysteriously: "Since Concubine Yan recruited medical talents and killed a few precious doctors, there are fewer and fewer people who have volunteered to treat you, and I haven't seen half a figure in the past three years, what does this mean?" ”

Xiao Xing gave him a blank look, did not speak, and continued to look at the next secret letter.

Po Jun said to himself: "The stronger the medical skills of those who dare to come!" Otherwise, who would come to this mortal invitation? Ninth Master, you said yes, right? ”

Xiao Xing felt a tingling sensation in his legs, and when he glanced at the stone rail clock, it was already 8 o'clock, and he was about to open his mouth to break the army and retreat, but he couldn't make a sound.

Xiaoxing put down the letter in his hand, leaned his neck back, leaned his back against the back of the wheelchair chair, and exhaled deeply.

Po Jun saw everything in his eyes, he put away the joking side, quietly walked out of the study, and said intimately before retiring: "Ninth Master, if you need me, ring the bell." ”

Xiao Xing closed his eyes, he had to go through this nightmare for 7 hours every day, from an able-bodied man to a crippled man. Again and again, over and over again, and never again, until the end of his life.

Xiao Xing's purple eyes opened slightly, looking at the dark night sky and the sky full of silver stars outside the window, which reminded him of the black and translucent eyes of Sundial Che.

It's ridiculous that meeting her for just a few hours was the only one of his countless nightmares that wasn't so difficult. The paper on which she had written her name was still in the pocket of her clothes, and somehow, when she handed it into his hands, he had the illusion of taking her deed of sale.

For the first time, Xiao Xing raised the corners of his mouth in an arc during this period of illness.
