Chapter 22 Swaggering out

After talking about the pill, Zhong Wuxian explained some miscellaneous things in the house, and then walked out and came to the guard attic, in the hall on the first floor, Zhong Wuxian sat on the chair at the front, looked at the twelve guards standing in front of him, and said slowly: "I have a mission tomorrow!"

There was also a hint of joy in the eyes of the guards, "Ah, I can finally have a good meal!" Going out has a very special meaning for them, but unfortunately, such a mission is not every day.

glanced at everyone lightly, "Hehe, don't think too much, this time we are going to Beilin Village, which is thirty kilometers away, and the time is about five to ten days, if the time is long, it may take half a month!"

Listening to Zhong Wuxian's words, the guards were also stunned, and said secretly: "What kind of task is this, it takes so long!"

"And this is still a mandatory task, all of you must participate, but the benefits are definitely indispensable to you!" Zhong Wuxian stretched out a finger as he spoke, "Ten gold coins a day, you don't have to be responsible for food and accommodation along the way, and there will be another reward after the end, how about it?" Zhong Wuxian also spoke.

Early the next morning, a group of people appeared at the gate of Zhongfu, this Zhong Wudao was wearing standard armor, the sword at his waist was even more extraordinary, and the jujube red horse under his body was also neighing in a low voice, a first-order demon beast, jujube red horse, this is also a special mount for the army, followed by six horses, stopped at the gate, pulled the reins, the horse's hooves were raised, but it looked radiant, "Father, the child is going!"

It didn't take long for the second Zhong Wuhu to also come and ride a black horse, "Father, don't worry, I will never let you down!"

"Ride!" he clamped his legs and galloped out on the big horse.

Zhong Wuyue was dressed in a strong suit, it was not the same as usual, the little pony whip in his hand, raising his head proudly, like a queen, a guard behind him led the horse, and their team went completely on foot, with only one horse.

Finally in the end, Zhong Wuxian appeared, compared to the previous people, he looked much more brilliant, directly came to the carriage, twelve guards followed the carriage, Zhong Li also saw that the driver of the carriage was the martial artist guard.

Stopping in front of the door, Zhong Wuxian opened the curtain, and then saw Zhong Li walking towards this side, Zhong Li frowned and looked at Zhong Wuxie, and snorted coldly, "Hmph, are you going to practice, or going on vacation, what do you want to do?"

Zhong Wuxian said lightly: "Experience, it's just a ridiculous excuse, father, are you serious too?"

Zhongli's tone was stunned, he couldn't speak, so he had to say with a different color: "Then you be careful, no one can protect you when you go out, everything is important to your own life!"

Zhong Wuxian smiled faintly, "Then thank you father for mentioning it!"

After Zhongli walked aside, the four maids also immediately ran up, Chunzhu took out a down robe and handed it in, with tears in his eyes, "Young master, it's cold outside, wear more clothes, don't freeze!"

Xia He handed over a package, "Young master, there are very few inns along the way, you can use these foods on the road!"

Qiu Ju took out a pot of tea, "Young master, you are used to drinking the tea I made, you can cook this tea yourself when you want to drink it on the road, but you can't make tea for the young master by yourself!"

Seeing that the three good sisters had prepared their own minds, Dongmei also shrunk the sachet hidden in the cuffs, and when the carriage was about to leave, Dongmei also hurriedly took out the crumpled sachet, lowered her head and handed it over, "Young master, I'm afraid I won't sleep well when I go out, this sachet helps sleep." With her head down, Dongmei didn't dare to look at Zhong Wuxian's eyes.

Zhong Wuxian played with this sachet, smelling the special smell on it, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, looking at Dongmei who bowed his head, Zhong Wuxian said slowly: "Stretch out your hand!"

Dongmei subconsciously shrank down, then raised her head and stretched out her right hand.

"Left hand!" Zhong Wuxian's voice snorted a little.

When Dongmei's hand stretched out, Zhong Wuxian also saw the dense needle eye on Dongmei's fingertips, and the white and tender fingers had been destroyed, so he shook his head helplessly, grabbed Dongmei's hand, took out a wound medicine, crushed and smeared it on the injured finger, "I don't know how to cherish myself, if I find out like this next time, young master, I will beat your ass!"

Feeling the friction of her fingertips and listening to her son-in-law's words, Dongmei's face was slightly red.

"Okay, you four just wait for me to come back, you know?"

"Got it, young master!" the four girls saluted again, and when they raised their heads, the curtain had been lowered, and the carriage had already departed, and when the carriage disappeared from their field of vision, they turned around, only to find that their hearts were empty.

With a strong smile, Dongmei nodded, "Okay, let's go back, the young master's absence should be regarded as a vacation for himself!"

Back at Qinglian Residence, Chunzhu was a little absent-minded about the sundries in the warehouse, sorting, recording, and frequently making mistakes.

In the kitchen, Xia He absentmindedly cut a piece of meat, which had been cut into mashed meat but still didn't stop, his eyes staring ahead, not knowing what he was thinking.

In the backyard, Qiu Ju sat on a chair on the edge of the flower field, glancing at the direction of the practice room from time to time, and then staring at it in a daze.

Dongmei stayed in the room, with a bill in front of her, but she didn't have the heart to look at it, she kept stroking the tips of her left fingers, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she kept smirking.

....................

On the carriage, Zhong Wuxian threw a road map to Yi Dong, and then rested, the rickety carriage made him drowsy, and when he opened the curtain, he was already out of the city, "Yi Dong, where are you?"

At this time, Yi Dong's voice came from outside, "Young Master, according to the route, there is an inn twenty miles away, we can settle down there tonight!"

Zhong Wuxian nodded, and took a look again, the road they chose was actually not bad, there were inns along the way, and they would not settle down in the wilderness, but this road was too difficult to walk, and it was really a bit bumpy.

"Then at our current speed, how long will it take to reach Beilin Village?" Zhong Wuxian also asked.

"Young Master, our speed is relatively slow, it will take about three to four days to arrive, Young Master Wudao, they should be faster, they can arrive in two days, is the young master worried that the trip is too slow?" Yi Dong also said truthfully.

Zhong Wuxian pouted, "What do you want to do so quickly, hurry up and go to reincarnation! That's it, if you're tired, you can rest, I'm not in a hurry!"

Zhong Wuxian has already discovered that what Wuhou powerhouse secretly protects this is all false, if there is really one, then with his strength, how can he not sense it, the only explanation is that the four Wuhou were sent to do other things, the truth is like this, Zhong Wuxian found out early in the morning, if it wasn't for the system task, he really didn't bother to be this substitute ghost, just thinking of his grandfather, Zhong Wuxian couldn't help but sigh, "This kind of thing, no matter what, it's a bit excessive!"

After walking for an hour and a half, the guards were a little tired, tied up the carriage, Yi Dong also formed a group with the rest of the guards, Zhong Wuxian did not get out of the car, but directly entered the alchemy system, refining two furnaces of Restoration Pill, most of these two furnaces of pills have reached the best quality, and the rest are also of the highest grade, just looking at the slow increase in the alchemist's proficiency, Zhong Wuxian couldn't help but shake his head, "Sure enough, is it still too slow to refine the Yellow Rank Pill to improve the level now?"

Alchemy again, Zhong Wuxian tried it, before he had always been refining five parts per furnace, this time he put in six parts at one time, not the limit, you can add more, and finally when he threw ten parts of medicinal materials into it at one time, he found that this is already the limit, controlling ten parts of medicinal materials to refine at the same time, it is very draining, plus the rush along the way, Zhong Wuxian himself is a little unbearable, after refining two furnaces of pills in a row, Zhong Wuxian stopped.

At this time, Yi Dong spoke up again, "Young Master, there is an inn not far ahead!"

Zhong Wuxian glanced at the pile of gold coins in the storage space, and nodded, "Okay, I know, let's go over!" At this time, the sky was already a little dark, and the lights of the inn could be seen from afar.

When the group entered the courtyard of the inn, a man dressed as a man walked out with broken steps, "Yo, everyone, you are staying in the hotel, and all the good rooms in the store are kept!"

Yi Dong tugged on the reins and didn't speak, but said to the opposite: "Young Master, it's here!"

Zhong Wuxian opened the curtain, stepped on Yi Dong's shoulder, and then landed on his feet, the guy also smiled and came up, "This son, this restaurant has a good guest room and hot meals, please come inside!"

Zhong Wuxian took out a gold coin and threw it to the man, "Needless to say, prepare good forage for my horse." "This one gold coin is a tip, enough to make the guy happy.

"Okay, this boy, please come inside!" said the man, who also went to pull the carriage back!

Entering the inn, a sense of warmth immediately dispelled the cold on his body, Zhong Wuxian took off his robe and threw it over, Yi Dong's eyes were quick, and he also grabbed it firmly.

Zhong Wuxian stood on the edge of the counter, looking at the scantily clad proprietress in front of him, and couldn't help but smile lightly.

The proprietress is about thirty years old, but she is a well-known widow in the local area, "This son, you need a few rooms, and the slave family will prepare!"

Zhong Wuxian said lightly: "Three upper rooms, in addition, prepare meals and hot water, and send them together, this is a deposit, refund more and make up for less!" Saying that, Zhong Wuxian also took out a string of (twenty) gold coins and put them on the counter.
