By the time Shen Qi returned to the Yunxian Mansion, Jiu'er had already arrived at the big tree where the two had been separated.

At this moment, there is a vendor selling rock sugar gourds over there, and Jiu'er is eating a string of rock sugar gourds in one hand.

Shen Qi couldn't help but feel amused.

Jiu'er is usually cold, talking and acting like an adult, and only when she sees all kinds of snacks, she looks like a child who doesn't grow up.

That's right, after all, Jiu'er is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and at the age of flowers, it is normal to think like a child.

Shen Qi beckoned in the distance, and Jiu'er smiled and waved the rock sugar gourd in his hand.

When Shen Qi approached, Jiu'er handed Shen Qi the rock sugar gourd that he had only eaten in his left hand.

"For me?" Shen Qi couldn't help but be stunned.

"Hmm!" Jiu'er nodded, I don't know if my teeth were stuck with sugar, and muttered something, but Shen Qi didn't hear clearly.

After taking the string of rock sugar gourds, Shen Qi had mixed feelings in his heart.

Shen Qi naturally had never eaten rock sugar gourds, and even all kinds of snacks, they only had those ordinary pastries provided by Yingxue Mountain Villa, not to mention that others invited him to eat them.

This is the second time.

The first time was the sugar man that Jiu'er invited herself to eat.

Shen Qi looked at Jiu'er and was a little moved in his heart.

"Eat. Jiu'er looked at Shen Qi's appearance in a daze, and couldn't help urging.

Only then did Shen Qi realize that Jiu'er had unknowingly killed the rock sugar gourd that belonged to her.

At this moment, Jiu'er stared at the rock sugar gourd in Shen Qi's hand, and her little tongue subconsciously licked the corners of her mouth.

Shen Qi couldn't help but feel amused.

Is this food really so delicious?

Shen Qi looked at the rock sugar gourd in his hand, the round, red hawthorn wrapped in the shiny sugar coating, crystal clear in the sun, like a dazzling ruby, pleasing to the eye.

Shen Qi couldn't help but take a bite, his tongue had just touched the sugar coating, and a faint caramel smell made Shen Qi couldn't help but chew, but the sour taste of the hawthorn rose, making Shen Qi stunned, and then the saliva was quickly secreted, and the sweet and sour were mixed together, making Shen Qi chew faster and faster.

"It's delicious!" Shen Qi couldn't help but admire. This is the first time I've eaten this sweet and sour snack.

I wanted to feast, but Shen Qi suddenly caught a glimpse of Jiu'er's longing gaze and stopped.

Didn't you just finish eating a bunch, why are you still so greedy!Shen Qi couldn't help but secretly slander.

There are nine hawthorns on this string of rock sugar gourds, Jiu'er ate one before, Shen Qifang only ate one, and there are seven left.

Shen Qi smiled and handed the rock sugar gourd in his hand to Jiu'er.

Jiu'er was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand a little embarrassedly, and said, "No...... No, it's yours...... Suck ......"

Jiu'er swallowed her saliva and turned her head away with a red face.

Shen Qi couldn't help but feel amused, so he put the sugar gourd in front of Jiu'er's mouth.

"Ahh

This time, Jiu'er did not hesitate, and directly bit a hawthorn.

Shen Qi smiled slightly and withdrew his hand.

Jiu'er blushed and turned her back to eat the rock sugar gourd.

Shen Qi walked to the vendor selling rock sugar gourds.

"Guest, come to a string of rock sugar gourds?" the vendor laughed.

Shen Qi nodded secretly and said, "It turns out that this food is called a rock sugar gourd."

"How much is a string?" Shen Qi asked.

"It's not expensive, only ten cents!" The peddler said with a smile: "The hawthorns in our family are all home-grown, all of them are big, and their heads are sour! The sugar coating wrapped outside is also made of cane sugar from Nanli Country, which is sweet! How many strings of guests come?"

"Boss, can you exchange medicinal materials?" Shen Qi asked in a low voice.

"Medicine...... Medicinal herbs?" the vendor was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "Guest, you are embarrassed for me, we don't know any medicinal materials." ”

Shen Qi thought for a while, took out the linden kun wooden box from the package behind him, and then took out a vitex red fruit.

"Do you recognize this?" asked Shen Qi.

The peddler looked at it for a while and said, "I think I've seen it...... But I just can't remember. ”

"Zhu Guo!"

Jiu'er exclaimed in surprise, walked up to Shen Qi and snatched the thorn red fruit, looked at it carefully, and then said in surprise: "It's really Zhu Guo! Where did you get it?"

Shen Qi couldn't help but be stunned, and said secretly: Isn't this Jing Hongguo, how did it become a 'Zhu Guo'? Could it be that this is the name of the outside world?

Shen Qi pondered for a moment and said, "I picked it from a cliff. ”

"You picked it?" Jiu'er said in surprise, "Where did you get it?"

Shen Qi nodded, glanced at Jiu'er, and was immediately shocked: "You eat so fast!?

Jiu'er's face turned red instantly, she opened her mouth, and said with a little twist: "Just ...... It's just three or two clicks...... Gone! Sugar ...... Don't you blame me?"

The peddler glanced at Jiu'er and said in a low voice: "Ke really likes to joke, our hawthorn is big and fresh, and the number is also the largest! There are only five or six in other houses, but there are nine in our house!"

"You!" Jiu'er looked at the vendor with a look in her eyes that looked like she was about to breathe fire.

The vendor is also a wonderful person, and when he saw that Jiu'er was annoyed and angry, he directly picked up the rock sugar gourd cluster and fled from here with a shout.

"Sweet and fragrant rock sugar gourd! rock sugar gourd ......"

The hawker's shouting soon died down.

Shen Qi smiled and glanced at Jiu'er, but Jiu'er glared at Shen Qi and ignored him with a red face.

"Jiu'er, this Jing ...... Zhu Guo, what is the effect?" Shen Qi asked tentatively.

Jiu'er snorted, unwilling to pay attention to Shen Qi.

"If you tell me, I'll give you this fruit. Shen Qi said temptingly.

"Really?" Jiu'er turned her head with a smile, but as soon as she saw Shen Qi's narrow eyes, Jiu'er was angry and didn't want to pay attention to Shen Qi.

"Really. Shen Qi said: "I just want to know the medicinal effect of this Zhu Guo." ”

Jiu'er glanced at Shen Qi suspiciously, and muttered in a low voice, "The medicinal herbs you picked yourself don't know the medicinal effect?"

"Please also tell Miss Jiu'er one or two. Shen Qi pretended to give up.

"Hmm. Jiu'er held her head high, and seemed to enjoy Shen Qi's current attitude.

"Zhu Guo is a miraculous fruit that blooms for 30 years and bears fruit in 30 years. Martial arts practitioners can increase the internal force of a jiazi. Jiu'er said.

"What?" Shen Qi couldn't help but be stunned.

If a martial artist takes it, can he increase the internal force of a jiazi?

Shen Qi's hand holding the Jing Hongguo was trembling slightly, could it be that we have used it for so many years in Yingxue Mountain Villa...... If you can increase your internal strength just by taking it, then ...... What is the significance of our painstaking practice of stealing the heavens and changing the sun? What is the significance of our repeated sufferings of passing on the gong?

Shen Qi's face changed suddenly, he looked at the thorn red fruit in his palm, which was no more than the size of a pearl, and asked, "Martial arts practitioners...... Can it really increase the internal force of one jiazi?"

Seeing Shen Qi's complexion change greatly, Jiu'er couldn't help but be secretly frightened in her heart, and said, "Spread the ...... The legend says so. ”

Shen Qi nodded, then looked at Jiu'er and said, "Then how did you know?"

Jiu'er gritted her teeth and said, "Our Xuanjiawei General Hall has a case file, and someone once swallowed Zhu Guo, thus increasing the internal strength of Yijiazi!"

"Xuanjiawei?" Shen Qi couldn't help but be stunned.

Immediately, Shen Qi remembered Jiu'er's previous words.

"If you keep asking, you'll know who I really am. And my identity ...... Not everyone knows, you know?"

I see!

Jiu'er bit her lip and said, "Shen Qi, now that you know my identity, even if you want to quit, you can't help it!"

Shen Qi couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I know what your identity is, don't you just know a 'Xuanjia Guard'? And I don't want to quit! Even if I don't think about anything else, my Holy Son Trial Mission has to be completed!"

Jiu'er nodded silently and said, "Since that's the case, I'll tell you all about the causes and consequences." ”

Shen Qi was stunned for a moment, and then nodded.

Jiu'er smiled mysteriously and said, "Before that, do you want to know the result of my tracking Wan Leyu?"

When Shen Qiyi heard this, his expression was a little unnatural, after all, he had followed Wang Ergou before and could be said to have found nothing.

Jiu'er patted Shen Qi's shoulder and said, "Young man, there's nothing shameful about losing it, after all, everything has a first time!"

Shen Qi was stunned for a moment, and immediately wanted to refute, but after thinking about it carefully, what is the difference between the result of his tracking and losing it? Perhaps the only difference is that he knows where Wang Ergou went.

Seeing that Shen Qi didn't speak, Jiu'er thought that she had guessed correctly, and said with a smile: "It's okay! ”

Shen Qi sighed secretly and nodded.

"I'll tell you, you can't guess where Wan Leyu went!" Jiu'er smiled mysteriously and said, "Why don't you guess first?"

Shen Qi scratched his head and said, "Back home?"

Jiu'er shook her head.

"Cloud Guest?"

"What is he doing there? It's not time to eat!"

“...... The Bitter Lord's house?"

"Did he go to the house of the Bitter Lord to offer condolences?"

Shen Qi finally shook his head and said, "I can't think of it." ”

Jiu'er shook her head and said, "It's not that you can't think of it, you haven't thought about it carefully! Forget it, I won't force you, I'll tell you directly." Wan Leyu went to the mountain. ”

"On the mountain?" Shen Qi was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood, and said, "Went to see the ginseng farmer?"

Jiu'er nodded and said, "Although I didn't hear their conversation clearly, I think the one Wan Leyu saw should be the ginseng farmer who sold ginseng to Wan Leping in the first place." ”

Shen Qi couldn't help frowning and said, "Could it be that Wan Leyu is also investigating the counterfeit drug case?"

Jiu'er said: "Then who can say for sure! Maybe he went to let the other party hurry up and run away!"

"Running away?" Shen Qi was stunned, what does this mean?

"It means to run away. Jiu'er said: "At present, it is not clear that the mastermind of the counterfeit drug case is still uncertain, it is possible that Wan Leping was framed by someone, or it may be a scene directed and acted by him!

Shen Qi nodded, agreeing with Jiu'er's reasoning.

"So what should we do next?" Shen Qi asked.

"Two ways," Jiu'er said, "one is to look for evidence, evidence that can prove that Wan Leping is the mastermind or framed! The second is Wan Leyu's attitude." ”

"So......" Shen Qi said, "I have to meet the two of them directly?"

Jiu'er nodded and said, "I'm afraid it can only be like this." The water in Guiyun Town is very deep! The interference and restrictions are too great, and it is difficult to let go of one's hands and feet, but fortunately, the case of counterfeit medicine is not complicated. ”

Shen Qi nodded approvingly, and then said, "Actually, I didn't chase Wang Ergou. ”

"Oh?" said with a narrow smile, "Really?"

Shen Qi nodded solemnly and said, "I saw him enter a big mansion. ”

"The mansion?" Jiu'er was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Have you ever heard about the owner of the mansion?"

Shen Qi nodded and said, "I met a master, and he seems to know a lot about me. He told me the identity of the owner of the house, and at the same time reminded me that the owner of the house had nothing to do with the counterfeit drug case. ”

Jiu'er couldn't help frowning and said, "Who is the owner of the house?"

"Dayining Wang Yuzi Jin. Shen Qidao: "If I'm not mistaken, it should be this name." ”

Jiu'er was stunned, then looked shocked, and said, "If it's him, then it really has nothing to do with the fake drug case!"

Shen Qi couldn't help frowning, and said, "This King Ning is so reliable? ”

Jiu'er smiled bitterly and said, "If you can't even trust him, I don't know who to believe." ”

Shen Qi was a little curious, but after thinking about it carefully, this must be top secret, and it was not good for him to ask again.

Jiu'er frowned and muttered a few words in a low voice, but Shen Qi didn't hear it because the voice was very small.

After a long while, Jiu'er looked at Shen Qi and said, "Shen Qi, are you willing to join the Xuanjiawei?"

"Huh?"
