Qin Nian'an looked at Ning Zhuo with a sense of crisis in his eyes.

It's not that he can't look down on Ning Zhuo, if Ning Zhuo can really win this girl he misses, he will definitely be happy for him from the bottom of his heart.

After all, Ning Zhuo's insistence day after day fell in Qin Nian'an's eyes.

A person can stick to the same thing day after day, go to the same place every day, just to see the girl who has his heart in mind.

To be honest, this is already a rare occurrence.

Qin Nian'an seemed to have no reason to disagree with Ning Zhuo, as for the source of this sense of crisis, it was naturally the bet he had made before.

If Qin Nian'an lost, he would have to drink the entire Qinglian Valley's water, but this seemed to be impossible to accomplish no matter what.

Wouldn't Qin Nian'an be caught by Ning Zhuo in that way?

Those who want to achieve great things are taboo to leave any handle.

Ning Zhuo put down the bamboo basket and placed it in front of Tao Leng, who first took out a yellowed book from his arms, and then squatted down to select the herbs he needed.

She carefully looked at the herbs in the bamboo basket, and each one of them was marked in the notebook before moving on to the next one.

Ning Zhuo's face was expressionless, he just stood aside, without the slightest intention of stepping forward to help, and seemed to have no interest in what was happening in front of him.

Could this really be what Ning Zhuo was thinking in his heart?

Qin Nianan could stand up and deny it without hesitation.

But this does not mean that Ning Zhuo is not well hidden, and the fact is the opposite, Ning Zhuo is very well hidden, and even can be called flawless.

If it was just from the perspective of a bystander, Ning Zhuo's mood at this time was calm, and it was impossible for anyone to see what he was really thinking in his heart.

But Qin Nian'an was not a simple bystander, what was the purpose of Ning Zhuo's efforts to get this basket of herbs, and his heart was still open.

Maybe it was because the two people had different styles of acting, Qin Nian'an looked at Ning Zhuo who was indifferent, and his palms couldn't help but sweat.

He didn't react at all.

At this moment, Qin Nian'an's heart was actually anxious for Ning Zhuo, and he obviously left the gambling contract behind.

Strategists may have their own ideas, but the process will not be too complicated.

If Ning Zhuo continued at this pace, how long would it take to take Tao Leng.

It's unimaginable.

Qin Nian'an's mind even flashed the idea of helping Ning Zhuo for a moment, but it was also the same moment that he denied this idea.

Isn't this pushing yourself into the fire pit!

Not hindering Ning Zhuo was already considered benevolent and righteous, how could he turn around and help him.

Qin Nian'an watched as the herbs moved from Ning Zhuo's basket to Tao Leng's basket, and the book in Tao Leng's hand changed.

The original blank page of the book has been filled with words, and the names of herbs are densely spread on it.

Qin Nian'an originally thought that Tao Leng was just writing down the herbs she needed, but it seemed that it seemed that not all the herbs were written on it.

He quietly moved his steps and walked behind Tao Leng.

This time, he could clearly see what Tao Leng had written.

Qin Nian'an's first feeling was that the handwriting was gentle and exquisite, and he also knew a little bit about calligraphy, he could conclude that Tao Leng must have practiced calligraphy often, otherwise it would be impossible to write such words.

From this point of view, Tao Leng's family background should not be too bad logically.

Although none of the countries in the Weiyang Continent can be unified today, there are no frequent wars between the four countries as before, and they are all recuperating and recuperating.

Everything seems to be rosy, and it seems to be moving in the right direction.

But can this calm really be maintained?

The balance between the four countries must be due to the fact that there is a point of equilibrium, but if this point of equilibrium is lost, the apparent calm will inevitably disappear.

But who can say for sure what will happen in the future?

At least this world seems to be stable now, and no one can deny the prosperity of this world.

But a world cannot only be prosperous, and there will always be indifference hidden behind countless prosperity.

Prosperity is reserved for those princes, generals, and children of nobles, while indifference is reserved for those of the poor class.

The reason why Qin Nian'an felt that Tao Leng's family background would not be too bad was that he saw the good words she had written.

Because if a person wants to practice calligraphy, he needs to spend a lot of money on pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, which the poor class cannot afford.

Of course, Qin Nianan can't deny all the poor classes, but the facts are in front of him, there are not a few people among the children of the nobility who can write a good hand, but trying to find such a person among the children of the poor is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.

The children of the poor may not be as talented as the children of the so-called nobles, but the starting points of the two are different after all, and they cannot be compared.

Qin Nian'an had heard the remarks of some noble sons from poor families before, but the cold families in their mouths were also some families with weak power, and they also called the cold family the Shu clan.

It is not easy to get a noble son from a poor family, but the poor class is not even comparable to a poor family, which is enough to see how difficult it is for the children of the poor to get ahead.

In this case, Tao Leng's words can bring Qin Nian'an a pleasing feeling, so how bad can her family background be?

Because Qin Nian'an was attracted by Tao Leng's handwriting at the beginning, he forgot to pay attention to what she wrote.

It wasn't until he came back to his senses that he began to look at the words she had written.

Qin Nian'an's feeling was not wrong, it was indeed not only the name of the herb written on the book, but also the number and price of each herb after it.

Tao Leng's pen speed is not fast, but every word he writes is particularly clear, without a little ambiguity.

This book as a whole gives people the feeling that it is clear at a glance.。

The price of each herb written down by Tao Leng was very accurate, Qin Nian'an was a little curious about the authenticity of these prices, after all, there were a lot of herbs, and it was not easy to write them down completely.

But Qin Nian'an had no way to verify it now, he had never paid attention to the price of herbs.

However, Qin Nian'an didn't have the slightest doubt about Tao Leng's meaning, even if Ning Zhuo wouldn't care about this price, it was impossible for Tao Leng to secretly reduce the original price.

Qin Nian'an could already roughly see Tao Leng's character, and her ability to write down every herb in a notebook had already proved her sincerity.

If Tao Leng didn't do this, with such a large basket of herbs, even if she secretly counted a few plants, it would be forgivable, and no one would suspect it at all.

But she didn't, and she meticulously counted every plant she picked up.

Ning Zhuo is not very good, but his vision is not bad.

Qin Nian'an glanced at Ning Zhuo, but let out a long sigh.

But what if you have a good eye?

Ning Zhuo hadn't said a few words from the beginning until now, could his plan really succeed?

Qin Nianan was a little skeptical, he didn't know whether he hoped he succeeded or hoped that he would fail.

Tao Leng, who was counting the herbs, suddenly raised his head, and Qin Nian'an and Ning Zhuo both set their eyes on her for the first time.

Qin Nian'an was standing behind Tao Leng, and he could naturally easily notice her every move.

But Ning Zhuo's eyes didn't stay here for a moment, he had been looking around idlely, as if he was admiring the scenery around him.

It is really unreasonable for him to be able to turn back at the first time like Qin Nian'an.

Tao Leng didn't seem to notice so much, and lowered his head again to confirm.

She then looked at Ning Zhuo and asked, "Didn't Ning Gongzi pick the star anise lotus recently?" ”

Ning Zhuo hurriedly responded: "Isn't there a missing star anise lotus?" ”

Tao Leng nodded and said with a smile: "I only need one, but Ning Gongzi doesn't have one here." ”

"Not a single one? Is this impossible? I've picked every herb. ”

Ning Zhuo was a little suspicious, and stepped forward to look at his bamboo basket.

Qin Nian'an was shocked when he heard this, what was the concept of picking every herb once, could it be that he was really interested in these strange herbs?

Qin Nian'an watched Ning Zhuo look around in that basket that was still full of herbs, this was already the herbs left behind after Tao Leng took them, he didn't expect that there would be so many.

This shows that Tao Leng doesn't need so many herbs at all, so is Ning Zhuocai really picking so many herbs just because he is interested?

Qin Nianan didn't want to believe it, but he couldn't give a reasonable explanation.

Ning Zhuo flipped through for a while, but still didn't get anything.

At this time, his face was full of confusion, and he muttered: "No, this is not right, I must have picked every plant, how could it be possible to drop the star anise alone." ”

Tao Leng squatted next to him and listened patiently, without the slightest suspicion on his face.

Waiting until Ning Zhuo's words completely fell, she spoke: "Maybe I accidentally dropped it on the way back, this won't be in the way, I'll just pick one myself." ”

"It's impossible to fall on the road, I'll count it again when I get back."

Ning Zhuo was still unwilling to accept this fact, trying to recall everything.

Ning Zhuo's words made Qin Nian'an feel more shocked every time than the last time, it turned out that he would not only pick every herb once, but also count them again after picking them back.

This has completely subverted Qin Nian'an's perception of him, is he still the same Ning Zhuo who seems to be too lazy to do it?

Qin Nian'an now looked at Ning Zhuo again, the feeling in his heart was completely different from before, and he found that he didn't seem to understand Ning Zhuo a little.

The two seem to have a heart-to-heart relationship.

Ning Zhuo raised his head suddenly, and looked at Qin Nian'an.

The two looked at each other.

Ning Zhuo asked, "Did you kid move my things?" ”

He remembered that Qin Nian'an had mentioned the bamboo basket to him before, and he estimated that the disappearance of the star anise lotus must have nothing to do with him.

Qin Nian'an looked stunned, feeling a little inexplicable.

Does this count as being shot while lying down?
