Chapter 399 [Evil Disciples] 3,000 words
"Have you met Qing Ming before?"
Hearing the old man's words, I was slightly shocked, because if I had really seen Qing Ming and Qing Ming refused to help, there must be some reason.
"Well, yes, I have indeed seen him. Mo'er must have told you about his mother, that's why you came."
The old man stared at me with a smile on his face. His cloudy eyes moved slowly, occasionally emitting glimmers of light that were difficult to detect. The middle-aged man next to the old man also narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at me.
"Well, that's true, but you always said you had met Qing Ming and told him about it. Why did Qing Ming refuse?"
I frowned slightly and spoke, because I knew that I could no longer burden Qing Ming. If I agreed rashly and put myself in danger, Qing Ming would also intervene in this matter, and even he was unwilling to do so.
What he did was definitely extraordinary.
The old man glanced at me, thought for a while, and said in a rhetorical tone: "Has he really promised to do things for others in all these years? No."
I was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, I realized that this was really the case. Qing Ming had always been like this, never agreeing to other people's things easily, even if it was a small thing, he would not agree easily.
"Well, okay, I will agree. After all, Mo'er has been with me for so many years, I can still do this."
After hesitating for a while, I nodded and agreed.
"Ahem..."
The old man suddenly began to cough violently, and his face turned pale. Su Mo'er immediately ran over, and a green light glowed in the palm of his hand. The light flowed into the old man's body, and the old man slowly stopped.
Coughing, he waved his hand to Su Mo'er and said, "My body is just like this. No matter how much treatment it is, it will be useless. This is what happens when people get old."
"If you are like this, why don't you keep Fu Yuan Cao and Vitality Fruit for yourself? I think since you have collected them, you must know their medicinal effects."
I could tell that this old man was already terminally ill, and the organs in his body had failed. I was afraid that he would pass away and return to the underworld before long.
"I just let them have the maximum effect. If they are used on my old bones, they will only let me live a few more years at most. Mo'er's parents have not been around since she was a child. If I can use these medicines, I can find them this time."
I would have given her parents a chance to die in peace, but it is a pity that I will not be able to hold my great-grandchild."
The old man took a deep breath, and held Su Mo'er tightly with his old wrinkled hands, his eyes full of love.
"Don't worry, just leave it to me. Besides, Mo'er has found her husband and will have great-grandchildren soon. You should be happy too."
I said with a smile, but as soon as I finished speaking, the old man's face suddenly changed. Su Mo'er was also startled and winked at me repeatedly.
"Oh? Mr. Ruyi, which boy can be worthy of our Mo'er? Mo'er, don't forget that you are betrothed to **'s young master. You cannot make decisions on your own in such matters. If
If you regret your marriage, our ghost market will also be in jeopardy. I haven't made it clear to you how serious the situation is."
The old man spoke in a stern voice.
"Yes, Mo'er, you listen to grandpa."
The bodyguard-like man next to me, who was sweating profusely, also changed his expression after hearing my words. After finally recovering, he spoke with a gloomy expression.
"Well, I know Uncle Feng, grandpa, I will take them to find the Nine-Hearted Lotus Leaf first."
Su Mo'er's expression changed, and she immediately pulled Cheng Susu and me away from here.
"Mo'er, I made a mistake just now, but I have never heard that you are engaged. I know something about you and Han Mofeng. Don't let him down."
After I left the house, I thought about it and said in a deep voice.
Su Mo'er nodded and said nothing more as she was too worried.
After leaving Ruyi Zhai, the sky outside was already pitch black. I don’t know why, but there were so many people today, even noisy. As soon as we walked out, several people came towards us from a distance.
, one is a young man wearing casual clothes. The young man has a white jade face and a gentle and elegant look. Behind him are several big men in black, one of whom is holding a jade box in his hand.
Seeing us appearing here, the young man was slightly startled, but when he saw Su Mo'er, a hint of surprise appeared on his face, and he immediately stood up in front of us.
"Mo'er, long time no see. How are you doing?"
The young man greeted us with a smile, showing a maturity that belied his age.
I felt that this boy was strange, but I couldn't explain it.
"Yeah, not bad."
Su Mo'er glanced at the young man and said coldly.
"Who is this? Huh? Looks like I've seen him before."
The young man turned to stare at me carefully. After a moment, a slight look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Have you seen me? Why don't I remember seeing you? You are only in your early twenties. I am several years older than you."
I said with a slight smile.
"You said you are in your twenties, but you look only seventeen or eighteen years old. You should be the boss of Mo'er Company. It's amazing that you can be the boss at such a young age. I have several companies in Yonghe City.
If something happened, your company would help solve it."
The young man had a look of admiration on his face and said softly.
"Mo'er, who is this?"
I asked curiously.
"Haha, my name is Ye Chen, and I have been Mo'er's playmate since childhood."
This young man who called himself Ye Chen stared at me with a smile on his face, a strange look in his eyes.
"Okay, young master, we have something to do when we go in, so don't delay."
The big sweat behind him looked a little impatient when he saw Ye Chen like this.
"Let's go."
Ye Chen turned his head and snorted coldly, then smiled at us and entered Ruyi Zhai.
"Impermanence, there is an evil aura in this person, and he seems to be quite interested in you. Does he know that you are a nine-yin body?"
Susu stood beside me and said softly.
"It's impossible. Only ghosts can sense my Nine Yin Body, or they are people who practice evil. He knows Mo'er. Who is Mo'er?"
I turned around and spoke to Su Mo'er.
"Brother Impermanence, he is the one who is engaged to me. I will not marry him even if I kill him. Don't look at him on the surface, but he is actually very vicious on the inside. You should stay away from him in the future. Last time I
When he was playing at his house, he once abused a teenager, tied him up, and whipped him with a whip. He was only twenty years old, so he had played with countless women. What was even more shocking was that he fell in love with her.
An evil sect that specializes in plundering other people's Yuan Yin and Yuan Yang to increase their own Taoism."
After taking us to a remote corner, Su Moer frowned and said.
Cheng Susu and I were stunned when we heard this. We didn't know what to say for a moment, but what Mo'er said seemed to make sense, because when Ye Chen passed by me, I could already clearly feel an unusual feeling.
breath.
"According to my grandfather's news, the Nine-Hearted Lotus Leaf will flow into the ghost market today. Everyone, hurry up and look for it. I have told you the shape of this thing. If you find it, please call us."
Susu looked at the stall in the distance, then glanced at my arm, and said aloud.
"There are only three streets here, one sells antiques, one sells medicine, and the other is a ghost street. I think there is no need to search separately. Let's go directly to the Herb Street."
I thought about it and spoke.
"No, that's right. In fact, these are already in chaos. These vendors are just trying to set up stalls in a lively place. Except for the ghosts who are restricted to the ghost street, the other two streets are in chaos. Let's find them quickly.
Well, if someone else finds it, it will be troublesome. I hope I don’t meet anyone who knows the goods."
After Su Mo'er finished speaking, she handed us a token.
"Okay, I'll go to the ghost street. I know the old man Qingde. Maybe I can get some news."
I nodded, then turned around and walked towards the ghost street.
When I came to the ghost street, there were already many ghosts, but there were also many disciples from the magic community who were exchanging items with some ghosts, or collecting some information. I glanced around and saw that
There was a three-wheeled wooden cart, and the meritorious old man was standing there, staring at me.
"Long time no see. How are you doing?"
I looked at the thin body of old man Gong De and asked with a smile.
"Isn't it the same as before? Why are you here alone?"
The old man Gongde laughed and stared, with a strange smile on his face.
"You are asking Qing Ming. He has something important to do, so he didn't come with me. Old Man Gongde, I want to ask you something. Have you ever heard of the Nine-Hearted Lotus Leaf?"
I stated my intention directly.
The old man Gongde touched his thin chin and said: "Why do you want this thing? Are you injured? The nine-hearted lotus leaf is really rare. It is made from the snow lotus on the Tianshan Mountains, but it is not as effective as the snow lotus.
Even more powerful, it is hard to find in the world, but the market has been open for so long today, I do know some gossip, but..."
After finishing speaking, the old man Gongde stared at my satchel for a few times, smiled and stopped talking.
Why didn't I understand what he said? I sighed and took out a few talismans from my bag and handed them to him. I didn't expect that this meritorious old man would take the opportunity to blackmail me.
After he took the talisman, he said with a smile: "Actually, not long ago, a person purchased the Nine-Hearted Lotus Leaf. Not long after you arrived, it was said that he spent several million."
"What!!! Someone bought it? Who is that person?!"
I spoke in shock, because if someone buys it, it will be difficult to buy it back. If I really have to spend millions to buy a herb, I would rather lose my arm. Who would spend millions?
Get an arm? What’s more, my current arm just can’t use it, and it’s not completely useless. It’s just that I may not be able to perform many secret techniques in the future, and even if I perform them, it will be extremely difficult.
The meritorious old man listened to my words and continued to stretch out his hand.
I reached out again and took out a few talismans from my bag and handed them to him before he spoke.
"He is a disciple of the Hehuan Sect. In the secular world, he seems to be the son of an adulterer. It was he who purchased the Nine-Hearted Lotus Leaf."
The meritorious old man took the talisman and spoke with a smile.
"What, is it him?"
