The cold wind howled, and the temperature plummeted after nightfall, and before you knew it, winter had arrived.

In the house, Mei'er tightened the quilt, and a hint of flushing appeared on her little face, as if looking for warmth, she moved twice and clinged to Jiang Xingchen.

The next morning, as soon as the sky was bright, Jiang Xingchen opened his eyes, and when he moved slightly, he felt that the quilt was suppressed. Turning his head, he saw the tightly wrapped Mei'er clinging to him.

"This girl!" Jiang Xingchen smiled softly, gently lifted the quilt from the other side, and prepared to get up.

"Hiss!" Before his body left the warm bed, Jiang Xingchen shivered and got goosebumps.

"It's cool, it's so cold, no wonder the little girl stuck to me!" Jiang Xingchen got used to it, then slowly got up and quickly put on his coat.

"Fortunately, I bought animal skin clothes, otherwise I would definitely be frozen today!" muttering in his heart, Jiang Xingchen turned around and gently covered his quilt on the little girl's body, and then walked out.

Quietly opening the door, Jiang Xingchen felt a cold air penetrating in, hurriedly stepped out, and closed the door with his backhand.

"It's so cold!" Jiang Xingchen exhaled a cloud of white mist, rubbed his hands, and ran into the kitchen in two steps, lighting a fire and boiling water.

The fire lit and released the heat, and he felt a hint of warmth, and found a few items from the pile of things he had bought yesterday.

Tough thin thread made of knives, awls, and animal tendons...... There were also two small round wooden sticks, and some pigs' manes found from the butcher's shop.

Today he has to make two toothbrushes and rinse his mouth with light salt water every day, he is really fed up, he always feels that his mouth is not good, and there is no taste in eating.

Sharpening the stick little by little with a knife, it was slow at first, but as time went on, his speed increased unconsciously, and the sawdust flew down one by one. At this time, he suddenly made a new discovery, that he always used the knife with just the right amount of force, that his proficiency was as if a craftsman had honed his skills a thousand times, and that his wrists and fingers were becoming more and more flexible.

The sound of swishing was non-stop, and it didn't take long for a toothbrush shape to take shape.

"Huh, is this also the function of the sensing array?" Jiang Xingchen smiled, at this time he already knew about the role of the formation, perception and sensitivity can not only avoid danger, but also can be used in manual skills to improve proficiency. With the rough handiwork of a small wooden pistol that I made when I was a child, I was able to make a toothbrush in such a short time, which can be seen.

"With this craft, where should it be used......" Jiang Xingchen thought as he took out an awl and drilled holes in the toothbrush head.

This is not something that can be solved by dexterity, this is a work of strength.

I put all my strength into it, drilling holes one by one, and I didn't sweat all over my body, and the thoughts in my head were temporarily lost.

After wasting all his strength, he had finally drilled the hole, and when he saw that the water was boiling, he threw his mane into the pot and boiled it, and then threaded the tendon thread into the nose of the needle.

After the moon in the middle of the night, Jiang Xingchen wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and looked left and right with a toothbrush with a smile on his face: "This craft, I don't have to pick it, look at how tightly this thread is tied...... This needlework, go back and make a big rag doll for Mei'er...... But it doesn't seem to have anything to do with making money......!

Thinking of this, Jiang Xingchen shuddered violently, and thought of a master named Dongfang Undefeated in his mind, and hurriedly shook his head vigorously: "Earn money or something, go back and think about it, now there is no shortage of money, let's brush your teeth!"

I took a sip of warm water, stirred my cheeks twice and spit it out, dipped my toothbrush in some salt, and put it in my mouth.

"It still feels good!" The soft bristles rubbed against the teeth and the gap between the teeth, making his whole body feel indescribably comfortable, and he couldn't help humming a little tune in his nose.

"Uh, Muna, Muna, Muna...... Woo, Zuna, Zuna, Zuna...... "Humming 'Beautiful, beautiful' Jiang Xingchen's right foot also lit the rhythm, his whole body was stunted, and a crystal trace of water flowed down the corner of his mouth.

"Squeak!" The kitchen door opened, and Mei'er walked in with her arms crossed and a cold breath in her mouth, with a look of malaise that she had just woken up.

"Brother!" But the moment she saw Jiang Xingchen, the little girl's depressed expression suddenly disappeared, and there was a trace of panic on her little face, and she jumped over and kicked Jiang Xingchen's knee.

Jiang Xingchen saw Mei'er come in, and before he could say hello, the little girl had already pounced like crazy, he was completely stunned, he didn't expect to dodge at all, and the agility of his body lost its effect. Immediately, he felt that his knee socket was hit by a force, and he fell to his knees.

Immediately after, the hand that was pinching and brushing his teeth was dragged down, and a black object was forcibly stuffed into his mouth.

"Woo~" Jiang Xingchen had a toothbrush in his right hand and a bowl in his left hand, so he could only shake his head vigorously.

But Mei'er looked nervous, grabbed the hair on the back of his head with her left hand, and pushed it into her arms, and pressed the thumb of her right hand on his person hatefully.

The muscles on Jiang Xingchen's face twitched, and he struggled to get up.

Mei'er's eyes widened, and her left hand let go of the back of his head, raised it high, and slapped him in the face.

Fortunately, at this time, Jiang Xingchen's leg liliang finally used it, and he stepped forward, tilted his head back hard, and dodged away.

"Little girl, are you crazy?" Jiang Xingchen spat out the contents of his mouth, and a piece of pitch-black charcoal fell to the ground with a click.

The corners of Jiang Xingchen's eyes twitched twice, and he lowered his head and let out a series of babbling sounds.

"Whew!" the little girl's nervous expression suddenly relaxed, and she said with a little choked up: "Brother, you are finally ready!

"Uh!" Jiang Xingchen was stunned, looking directly at Mei'er, his face full of doubts.

"Don't you know? You just had a convulsion, and you kept poking yourself in the mouth with a piece of wood, and your whole body trembled, and you made strange noises...... I'm drooling!"

Jiang Xingchen's head was full of black lines, completely speechless, his lips blackened by charcoal couldn't help but open, and an urge to hit his head against the wall rose: "What's going on......"

Subsequently, after Jiang Xingchen's careful explanation, Mei'er realized what was going on just now.

"Brother, I'm sorry, people don't know......" The little girl made a greasy voice and shook his arm gently.

Of course, Jiang Xingchen knew that the little girl didn't mean it, and he was even a little moved by Mei'er's anxiety just now, and his serious expression eased.

However, as soon as he showed that he was no longer angry, the little girl suddenly revealed her true form and snatched the toothbrush in his hand.

"Let me try this too!" he said, and put the toothbrush in his mouth and rubbed it dry!

"This is the ...... I used" Jiang Xingchen stretched out his hand, and stopped in the middle of his words, Mei'er's movements were faster than his words.

"Hey!" Shaking his head speechlessly, Jiang Xingchen stepped forward and gently pressed Mei'er's hand: "It's not right to do this, I'll teach you ......"

After a few minutes, Mei'er was full of smiles and kept puffing out her cheeks, only to feel that her mouth was full of refreshment, and she didn't know how many times better than rinsing her mouth.

After taking the toothbrush for herself very domineeringly, Mei'er was about to drive Jiang Xingchen back to the house, and she came to prepare hot water to wash her face.

Jiang Xingchen found at this time that the little girl's face was a little ruddy, and her eyes were slightly rusty, far from being as clear as usual.

Ignoring Mei'er's request, Jiang Xingchen reached out and touched her forehead, and asked, "Mei'er, do you feel cold?"

"It's so cold today, of course it's cold...... But I didn't feel my body tight!, what's wrong?" asked Mei'er, a little strangely.

"Oh, then it'll be fine!" Jiang Xingchen was relieved, he touched the temperature of Mei'er's forehead, and he didn't have a fever, probably just a little cold.

"You're biedong, brother is here to prepare, you go back to the house, don't go out today, it's best to stay in bed all day, I'll prepare water and food for you!"

Prepare hot water, then mix the noodles, pancakes, and stew the meat of the pork back with a pound of sword spine in zuihou, and a month has passed.

Outside, the sky was already bright, but the sky was overcast and there was no sun, giving people a gloomy and cold feeling.

A charcoal brazier was prepared in a slightly ventilated place at the door of the bedroom, hot water and food were packed in jars, and they were also put in the house, and Mei'er was instructed to heat it up when it was cold, and Jiang Xingchen then set off for the Bauhinia Mercenary Group.

As soon as he was discharged from the hospital, Jiang Xingchen saw that the carriage from yesterday was parked at the door, blocking most of the entire dirt road.

"Young Master Jiang, Young Master Sun asked us to take you to the Bauhinia Mercenary Group, we have been waiting for a while!"

"Then there are two Lao!" Jiang Xingchen thanked him, raised his legs and got into the car, and didn't see anything outside. Yesterday, he had already made Sun Sanqiang a friend, and now he will not refuse the other party's arrangement. Besides, it's not close to the Bauhinia Mercenary Group, and it's really time-consuming to walk.

The wheels were rolling, and the carriage staggered on the dirt road, slowly moving away......

Half a month later, the carriage arrived at the Bauhinia mercenary group, and the two thugs said goodbye and left.

After Jiang Xingchen entered, he found that Mo Hongxian had not come back yet, and in the entire station, except for some civilians who were doing odd jobs, there were only the second brother, the fourth brother, and Wanrou, and a tall young man he didn't know.

"Jiangling, you're here!" the second brother and the fourth brother greeted them.

"Captain Mo hasn't come back yet?" Jiang Xingchen asked, and then came over to say hello to Wanrou, who seemed very familiar, like a long-time friend, but it didn't make people feel particularly close.

The tall young man glanced at Jiang Xingchen with some surprise, and then showed an anxious expression, glancing in the direction of the gate from time to time.

"Hongxian has already sent a message back, saying that it is not far from Hongyuan City, and she will be back in two months!" Wanrou nodded, the smile on her face made her classical beauty even more prominent.

Then, she asked, "Jiangling, listen to the second brother, you have activated Yuanquan!"

"Yes, I'm a little strange, if you want to say that it's a fake medicine, but the day before yesterday I activated Yuanquan. But if it is said to be a real medicine, my cultivation is indeed useless, and I can't practice martial arts at all, and my head seems to blow up as soon as I exert my strength!" Jiang Xingchen once again led the question to the fake medicine.

Wanrou pondered for a moment, shook her head, and said, "It's really strange...... By the way, Hongxian will come back in two months, so let the second brother go to the aristocratic management department with you for appraisal first!"

"Okay!" Jiang Xingchen immediately nodded and agreed, staying during this period, it was okay to quickly confirm the status of the nobleman.

"Let's go, brother, I'll go with you, I have to see if you really don't have cultivation!" The second brother laughed, stepped forward and patted Jiang Xingchen on the shoulder, and pulled him out.
