Chapter 4 chance encounter
Chapter 04: Encounter by chance
On the first day of January, the first day of the New Year, if it is placed in Nie Kong's previous life, it will be the Spring Festival. However, there is no such thing as the Spring Festival in this Tianling Continent. Instead, the "Divine Birth" on the second day of February, the significance of the humans on the Tianling Continent can be compared with the Spring Festival in the previous life.
Now, Nie Kong is increasingly integrated into this new world. After dinner, Nie Kong sat cross-legged on the bed, recalling only a brief recollection of the scenes during the Chinese New Year, and began to practice the "Muyang True Spirit Art" quietly until he was woken up by the little guy's screams the next morning.
With a thought, the "lightning vine" appeared in his palm. This time, Nie Kong gave all the medicine absorbed to the little guy as food. After eating and drinking, the little guy was still depressed. The two small leaves shook weakly, and the roots were also wrapped around and wrapped in a ball.
Nie Kong was quite funny. No matter what emotions Xiangxiang had, it could be expressed vividly through the small seedlings. He knew that the little guy was still thinking about the "fire tree and silver flower" that appeared at the auction. Now it was like a little kid who asked his parents for candy but failed to get what he wanted, pouting his mouth and pissing his mouth and pissing his tender roots. Of course, Xiangxiang had no mouth, so he could only pout the small leaves and then lingering his tender roots.
"Ahhhh..."
As if he noticed Nie Kong making fun of him, the little guy got angry and his roots hopped on the side wall of Nie Kong's "Lingshen Acupoint".
Nie Kong was speechless. This little guy was so greedy. He wanted to take it for himself when he saw good things. But this time he was interested in the "fire tree and silver flowers" among the five great medicines in the Tianling Continent. Now he doesn't know how to protect Cheng Feiliu and others. Where did he get it?
Shaking his head, Nie Kong supported his palms on the bed, bounced up, and walked out of the room. At that time, there was only a slight dawn in the sky...
...
The north of Jiyang City was full of noise. The wealthy merchants living nearby were frightened by the movements from the royal houses and were frightened. They were in peace all night, fearing that the fights would affect their homes. After finally waiting until the sky was getting brighter and seeing some rest there, everyone quickly packed up and took their family servants to evacuate to other houses in Jiyang City, intending to avoid this gust of storm before moving back.
At this time, the royal courtyard was already in a mess. Cheng Feiliu and Cheng Feihong were sitting cross-legged on a pile of ruins, their faces full of fatigue.
Last night, the two of them responded to dozens of various harassments in succession. Fortunately, they were prepared and never left the hall a little step away. However, almost everyone outside was injured but did not die. This was not because those people were kind-hearted, but because they were worried that a person would cause death to cause interference from the Nie family, so they showed mercy. Otherwise, the nearly 100 guards would have died long ago.
After all, it is said that the great elder of the Nie family, Mr. Nie Shen, is already a powerful heavenly spirit. Even if the legend is fake, Mr. Nie Shen is at least a powerful cave spirit. Last night, those people still had some concerns, but tonight, those people knew that the royal reinforcements were getting closer and closer, so they were afraid they would not be able to care about that much. The temptation of "fire tree and silver flower" is too great, so great that some people can ignore any obstacles blocking them.
"Hey, the emperor's letter is here!"
Cheng Feihong's face was happy and a white jade piece appeared in his hand. In his mind, a little yellow light penetrated into it. However, after a moment, Cheng Feihong's face changed drastically and he said in a lost voice, "The emperor said in the spirit card that he was constantly intercepted as soon as he left the capital. It would probably take three to four days to reach Jiyang City."
"What?"
Cheng Feiliu was shocked, with a hint of worry in his expression, and frowned slightly, "I'm so troublesome now. What did the emperor say in the spiritual card?"
Cheng Feihong said: "The emperor said that if it is really difficult to support, you can ask the Nie family for help. As long as we speak, they will not be able to stand by. In order to let them help them with all their strength, they can also agree to give him a few silver flowers to the Nie family when he grows up."
"It seems that's all."
Cheng Feiliu was silent for a while, but finally sighed helplessly, "However, before asking the Nie family to help, the 'fire tree and silver flower' cannot continue to stay here."
Cheng Feihong was stunned: "The third brother means to send the 'fire tree and silver flower' to another safe place, and then we two stay here to attract the attention of those people?"
"Well, this is a good idea. It can prevent accidents and ask the Nie family for help with confidence, so you don't have to worry about them stealing the "fire tree and silver flowers" in the chaos. However, before this, you have to find a way to isolate the breath of the "fire tree and silver flowers" to avoid being leaked and noticed..."
“…”
After a cold winter, ice and snow, after many days of gloom, a very rare red sun hangs in the sky. Although the sun shining down on the slope is difficult to bring any warmth, the clear and bright sky can make people's mood more comfortable and transparent.
In the morning, Nie Kong was walking on the way to Lingbao Pavilion. According to convention, the "Thousand Spiritual Medicine Association" started on December 30th and ended on January 4th. Now it is the third day of the Medicine Association, and there are still spiritual masters rushing over from all over the place with herbs and elixirs.
Nie Kong wanted to see if he could find some precious strange herbs in medicine. This was like the antique lovers in his previous life who went to the antique market to find bargains. Maybe there were really one or two good things that had never been discovered by his predecessors and had not been verified by spiritual medicine masters.
This kind of thing happened in the previous "Thousand Spiritual Medicine Association". Of course, Nie Kong did this mainly to find something for the little guy to do so that it would not care about the "fire tree and silver flower" with "ah ah ah" and "ah ah ah" in his mind. Nie Kong was really a headache for his persistence with the little guy.
"Ahhhh..."
The little guy suddenly started to scream anxiously.
I am really afraid of anything I come to!
Nie Kong staggered and almost fell down. Ami Tofu, Wuliang Tianzun, and the God of Maigadi... Nie Kong patted his forehead and said all the gods and Buddhas at home and abroad in his previous life, praying that the little guy could calm down for a while, but unfortunately his narration was obviously insincere, and the little guy screamed even more excitedly.
Then, Nie Kong discovered something was wrong. At this moment, the little guy's scream was obviously not the kind of coquettish act like anger. In the auction, it called that, and now it called that, is there any rare herbs nearby that can be compared to "fire trees and silver flowers"?
Subconsciously, Nie Kong speeded up.
As soon as he reached the entrance of the alley about ten meters away, in the alley on the left side of Nie Kong, a young man dressed in a hunter walked out of the side door of a house with two baskets.
"Oh my!"
The moment he saw the hunter, the little guy screamed excitedly.
The hunter closed the door and took up the burden and walked forward. Nie Kong's heart moved. Could it be that the herb was in the hunter's basket. Nie Kong was about to walk out of the alley and stopped the hunter who was about to walk away. However, as soon as the voice rushed to his throat, Nie Kong was shocked.
The hunter's back and walking method made him feel familiar! Nie Kong's body subconsciously retracted back into the alley, and the young man he knew after coming to the Tianling Continent flashed through his mind like a lantern.
"Fourth Prince!"
Suddenly, these three words popped up in my mind.
Nie Kong's heart trembled, and an incredible guess emerged. Perhaps the man was not the hunter who came to the city to send prey, but it was really the fourth prince Cheng Zixuan. What he carried in the basket was not other herbs, but the "fire tree and silver flower" that he bid yesterday!
