Chapter 136: The missing herb picker, Shaoqing ruthlessly swung his sword and slashed his face

After breakfast, the quiet house welcomed the first guest: Cai Yiming.

"There's an accident over there in Qingshuizhai. Cai Yiming said.

Qing Moyan was sitting in the corridor with Ru Xiaonan, watching her groom the stupid dog, while one of his hands fell on her head and stroked it slowly.

A few days ago, Qing Moyan and Cai Yiming went to Qingshui Village, and he went to look for news of the ghost grass.

"What's wrong?" asked Qing Moyan.

"The only herb picker who knows the news of the ghost grass is missing. ”

Qing Moyan frowned, last time he followed Cai Yiming to Qingshui Village as a medicine merchant, and said that he wanted to buy ghost grass at a high price, or news about ghost grass.

Looking at the white silver in front of him, naturally no one could resist.

Qing Moyan soon got the news that the only herb picker in the village who knew the news of the ghost grass had gone to the Troubled Stone Valley to the east of the forest a few days ago, so he could only go back to Shifang Town first.

I didn't expect to wait for such disappointing news in the end.

"I heard that the herb picker is a veteran, and among all the herb pickers who went to look for ghost grass back then, he was the only one who survived. Cai Yiming said with regret, "This time he went to Ranshi Valley to hunt poisonous scorpions, and we also had to buy a large number of scorpion tails, I didn't expect such a thing to happen......"

Seeing that Qing Moyan was silent, Cai Yiming said tentatively: "Qingshuizhai wants to send another team to Ranshi Valley, and I want to go with it, I don't know if Qing Gongzi is interested." ”

Qingmoyan's eyes flashed, "You want to go too?"

"Yes, the price of scorpion tails is too high, my father means that he wants to train some of his own medicine pickers, so that he can save a lot of difference. ”

Qing Moyan smiled faintly, "Aren't you afraid of danger?"

"Young Master Qing also underestimated me too much. Cai Yiming smiled, "I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and I have guards by my side, and I don't take action when collecting medicine, so it's not as dangerous as you think." ”

Qing Moyan smiled, "When are you going to leave?"

"Early tomorrow morning. ”

Qing Moyan nodded, "Got it." He neither directly agreed nor refused.

Cai Yiming couldn't help but look puzzled, and was hesitating whether he should ask clearly, when Xuanyu came in outside, holding a post in his hand: "Childe, Ciyaotang sent a post, saying that they have an important medicinal material business and want to talk to Gongzi, please go to Ciyaotang with the little lady." ”

Qing Moyan glanced at the post and threw it on the table, "If you send a message to them, just say that I will arrive later." ”

"Yes, the little lady ......" Xuanyu glanced at Ru Xiaonan.

"She won't go. Qing Moyan refused without thinking about it.

Ru Xiaonan raised her head in surprise, her eyes were full of puzzlement, obviously she didn't say anything, he just decided for her.

Qing Moyan pinched her nose, "I went to the Ci Yao Hall to see the medicinal herbs, not to eat the banquet, what are you going to do." ”

Ru Xiaonan thought about it and felt that what he said made sense.

If someone else invites a banquet, she can still eat delicious food when she goes, but she goes to the pharmacy to see the medicinal materials, what's the point.

"Got it, I'll be at home and waiting for you to come back. Seeing her nodding vigorously, Qing Moyan showed a hint of a smile.

talked to Cai Yiming again, and Cai Yiming got up to say goodbye.

Seeing that Ru Xiaonan was not by his side at this time, Cai Yiming whispered: "Ciyaotang has been doing business in Shifang Town for many years, and I know best what goods they have, but I don't remember what good goods they have...... And as far as I know, their shopkeeper is extremely beautiful, so young men should be careful. Saying that, Cai Yiming turned his head to look at Ru Xiaonan in the distance.

Ru Xiaonan was playing the game of "Throwing Away" with the stupid dog, one person and one dog were having a lot of fun, the yard was full of children's crisp laughter, and even Cai Yiming's heart felt inexplicably happy.

Qing Moyan tugged at the corners of her mouth, and only said, "Thank you for the reminder." "Just let people send them off.

An hour later, Qing Moyan took Xuanyu and five dead soldiers dressed as family members to the Ciyao Hall.

The bear shopkeeper did not show up, and the guys in the store were busy receiving Qing Moyan.

"Our shopkeeper happened to be in an emergency, so he will come in a moment. The man explained, serving tea.

Qing Moyan played with the tea cup in his hand, but he didn't drink it in his mouth.

The guy peeked at Qing Moyan and saw that he didn't drink tea at all, and seemed a little anxious, "Qing Gongzi, if you can't get used to drinking this tea, the small one will change the ...... for you" As he spoke, he stepped forward and lifted the teapot.

"No need. As soon as Qing Moyan's words fell, the guy said "oops", the teapot took off his hand, and the spilled tea poured him all over.

Xuanyu and the others immediately held the hilt of their swords and looked at each other angrily.

The guy turned white with fright, and said again and again: "Young Master Qing, the little one didn't mean it, I really didn't hold it...... Or...... Why don't you go to the back and change your clothes first......"

Qingmo's face was expressionless, he lifted his wet clothes and stood up, and followed the guy into the courtyard behind the pharmacy.

There are three main rooms in the backyard, and the guy takes Qing Moyan into one of them.

As soon as he entered the door, Qing Moyan smelled a faint aroma of rouge.

"These clothes are all new, so I can wear them with confidence. The man hurriedly said a few words and then withdrew.

Qing Moyan first looked around the room, and finally his gaze fell on the screen with his new clothes.

The faint aroma of rouge comes from here.

Because he always stays with small things, and small things never rub rouge or anything like that, he is particularly sensitive to this smell on women.

He gently clasped the scabbard and listened to the footsteps approaching outside the door.

"Madam, the lord is coming back soon, have you changed your clothes?" a maid pushed open the door.

At the same time, the exclamation of the man came from outside: "What! Madame is also changing clothes in this room?"

The moment the door was pushed open, the corners of Qing Moyan's mouth tugged slightly, and at the same time, his wrist sank slightly, and the cold long sword suddenly came out of its sheath and stabbed straight into the opposite screen.

"Ahh

The maid who pushed the door in and the guy who followed closely behind were all stunned on the spot.

A blood-colored flower bloomed on the screen.

Qing Moyan pulled the sword out of the screen without hesitation.

There was a "bang" from behind the screen, as if something had fallen to the ground.

The blood on the blade of the sword had not dried, the smell of blood spread, coupled with Qing Moyan's cold side face, the maid was frightened stupid, and the pestle trembled there.

In the end, it was the guy who reacted first and shouted, "Madam!"

In an instant, a large group of maids and mothers-in-law ran out of the yard, and they all crowded into this side of the house.

"What's wrong with ma'am?"

"How can there be a foreign man in this house!"

"Who are you, Madame, changing clothes here, who allowed you to come in!"

A large crowd was noisy, but when they came in, they were all dumbfounded.

Behind the screen, a young and beautiful woman fell there, wearing only a light middle coat, she fell there with her back facing the sky, a sword in the chest, and she was already out of breath.
