Chapter 197 Chapter 196

Shen Mu had already made up his mind, but he just snorted coldly: "Hmph! You will be my little brother now, obey my orders, and when you can repay the debt, you will be free."

"Ah..." Sedum scratched his head in confusion, and murmured in a low voice: "Then isn't this the same as prostitution?"

"Why, you don't want to?" Shen Mu's tone turned cold, and two flames appeared in his eyes.

Jingtian knew that he couldn't do it if he didn't want to, otherwise his life would be reported, so he hurriedly said: "Then...well then..."

"Ding Dong, congratulations to the host, change the plot once, and get 1000 points of happiness, host, you have now triggered an additional new task, meet Tang Xuejian."

"Get to know Tang Xuejian? Let me think about what to do." Shen Mu stroked his chin and thought for a while, then said to Jing Tian: "Let's go, leave here with me now."

"Leave?!" Sedum asked, "Where are you going?!"

"No need to ask any more." Shen Mu said coldly.

Jing Tian looked bitter, and scratched the back of his head and said: "But I was poisoned by the unique hidden weapon of the Tang family under Miss Tang's family. I have to take the repaired teapot lid and go to the bamboo forest in the southwest of the city to find her to exchange for the antidote. Ah, or else I'm going to die... If that's the case, then you won't get a penny..."

"Hmph, busy, let's go." Shen Mu was still thinking about how to get acquainted with Tang Xuejian, this kind of flirting with women was really a headache for a shy person like Shen Mu.

Sedum simply tidied up, packed up some beloved antiques, and then left Yong'an pawn shop. Before leaving Yong'an pawnshop, Shen Mu borrowed the Mozi sword from Sedum first, so that this guy also had a self-defense weapon , and then went to the bamboo forest in front of Bishan, and at the same time saw a beautiful girl in a red dress running from a distance...

"Hey, Miss Tang Family..." Sedum saw the beautiful girl, and hurriedly stepped forward and shouted.

"It's you?!" Tang Xuejian stopped, looked towards Sedum through the moonlight, saw Sedum carrying a sword on his back, and at the same time saw that beside him was an imposing and domineering person. , and said: "...Why did you bring a helper!"

"I don't, I don't!" Sedum quickly waved his hands, "He's my boss..."

"This man is your boss?!..." Tang Xuejian glanced at Shen Mu. In the eyes of Tang Xuejian and Jing Tian, ​​Shen Mu was the image of a young swordsman.

"You! You can call me Amu." Shen Mu said coldly.

"Ah Mu, the boss's name is really good..." In order to pay off the debt as soon as possible, Jing Tian never forgets to flatter Shen Mu at any time, but he couldn't think of any good words for a while, so he came to flatter Shen Mu .

"So this is the boss you just met." Tang Xuejian nodded, and then muttered to herself: "Amu... Since you are the boss of this kid, then your kung fu must be very good."

There was a wry smile on the corner of Shen Mu's mouth, and he said lightly, "A little bit..."

"Ding dong, congratulations to the host, the setup was successful and you got 1000 points."

What Jing Tian was most worried about was his life, so he took a step forward and said to Tang Xue, "Hey, Miss Tang, I'm still poisoned! Give me the antidote!"

Xuejian deliberately said: "The antidote?! What is the antidote!"

Jing Tian said anxiously: "Hey! What you say doesn't count. I had an appointment in the morning and didn't come. Now I found you with great difficulty, and said I don't know what it is! It's better to kill people!"

Xue Jian laughed loudly and said: "Haha! I lied to you! The poison on the poisonous terrestris is very weak. It doesn't matter if you don't take the antidote for seven or eight days. It's not authentic at all! Hmph! If it's the real Tangmen poison, how can it be poisoned? Let you live until now?"

Sedum let out a long breath, "Woo...I feel a little strange!"

Xue Jian looked at Mozi behind Sedum and said: "This sword is not bad, where did you get it?"

Jing Tian glanced at Shen Mu and said, "...my boss lent this to me for self-defense."

"It's for self-defense, hehe, do you know how to use it?" Xuejian glanced at Sedum disdainfully, and couldn't help but become curious about Shen Mu's identity, and said in her heart, "This kid has a big boss every bite, it seems that this young swordsman has no profound knowledge." Test it, why not..."

"Of course I can use it." Sedum didn't know where she learned the two tricks, or maybe she was born with them, so she said, pulled out the Mozi sword behind her, and really started to play.

When Shen Mu saw the sword technique that Sedum was playing, he couldn't figure out what kind of sword technique Sedum was using.

And Tang Xuejian thought it was Shen Mu who taught Jing Tian, ​​and couldn't help but feel a little admiration for Shen Mu.

"Hey... how about it!" Sedum finished playing the sword move with a smug expression on his face.

"Smelly! What's so great about learning two tricks just now?" As she said that, Xue Jian glanced at the scarlet sword on Shen Mu's back, and knew that Shen Mu was not simple, she must be a master, so she smiled and said, "Okay! Now that I've met you guys, I'll save trouble, come with me!

Jing Tian put the sword back into its sheath, and said doubtfully, "Follow you? I'm someone else's younger brother now, so I can only follow the boss, and I can't go anywhere."

"Why?!" Xue Jian looked puzzled, then turned her beautiful eyes and said, "Could it be that you owe him money?"

"Yes, and it's still a lot of money." After speaking, Jing Tian looked at Shen Mu pitifully.

"Ah, he really owes you a lot of money?!" Tang Xuejian asked in surprise.

"Yes." Shen Mu nodded, "Sedum owes me a large sum of money, he must follow me now, when he pays off the debt, he will be free."

Sedum said helplessly: "Yeah...I have to follow the boss now."

"Ah, so, Miss Ben is now looking for a medicine that can cure my grandfather. I just need two bodyguards. How about ten taels of silver a day?" Tang Xuejian had no idea how much Jingtian owed Shen Mu. , I thought it was a hundred taels of silver at most.

Shen Mu has spent three years since he entered the early stage of foundation establishment. Apart from stabilizing his cultivation in the foundation stage, he has not made any progress in his cultivation. It seems that only through experience and in battle can he have a chance to break through to enter the stage of foundation establishment. It's the middle stage of foundation building.

Now is also an opportunity to break through his cultivation. While completing the task, he can get some treasures by the way, which kills two birds with one stone. Money is actually nothing to him.

But Jingtian is a small money fanatic, knowing that Xuejian wanted something from the two of them, so he wanted to raise the price on purpose, and waved his hand and said: "No way...there are still things waiting to be done in the pawnshop..."

"Pawnshop?!" Xuejian gave Jingtian a disdainful look, "The pawnshop is the property of my Tang family. If you do things for the pawnshop, you are doing things for the Tang family. If you do things for me, you are also doing things for the Tang family. You still have money. That's good." Where can I find a job? Don't be ignorant of flattery!"

Jing Tian bargained: "Ten taels is too little... At least 20 taels per person, and the silver taels I got, except for food, I have to pay back the debts."

Tang Xuejian scolded Sedum for money fans secretly, but she pretended to be nonchalant and said: "Humph! Twenty taels per person is nothing... Don't forget, I am the eldest lady of the Tang family! My family's money can't be counted. "

"Boss, what do you think?" Sedum walked up to Shen Mu and asked quietly.

Shen Mu nodded without saying a word, and said in his heart: "This guy is really a good material for doing business..."

Seeing that Shen Mu agreed, Jing Tian said to Tang Xue, "Then, okay... okay! My boss agrees, this teapot is for you."

With that said, he handed the teapot he had repaired to Xuejian.

"The teapot...Grandpa..." Seeing the teapot, Xue Jian showed a trace of sadness on her face, her eyes turned red, but she pretended to be strong and said, "You can put it away for me..."

"If you don't want to replace it, just give it to me? How about it?" Sedum wanted to take advantage of this opportunity and took the teapot as his own.

"Good idea!" Xuejian gave Sedum a disdainful look, pinched Xiaoman's waist and said, "That's Grandpa's favorite, you have to keep it well, if it's a little bit broken, I'll settle the score with you!"

At this time, Jacaranda flew up to say hello, Sedum just found out the existence of Jacaranda, and was startled, "What is this? You raised it? A flying pig?"

"What kind of pig! She's Huaying." Xuejian said, then turned to Huaying and said, "Little Huaying, come! Let's get acquainted, these two are friends I just met."

When Shen Mu saw that the yellow jacaranda was exactly a pair with his blue courage pig, a smile couldn't help but he stepped forward to touch the jacaranda.

"Whispering..." Jacaranda's two crescent-shaped eyes narrowed into a slit, rubbing against Shen Mu's arms, as if she was full of affection for Shen Mu.

Shen Mu found that the Five Poisonous Beast in front of him was similar to his courage pig, but its cultivation level was much lower than that of the courage pig.

"Her name is Jacaranda? Then what is she?" Sedum stepped forward and wanted to touch Jacaranda, but Jacaranda quickly avoided it.

Xuejian looked at the jacaranda hiding behind her, and gave Sedum a white look: "A jacaranda is a jacaranda! It's nothing! Let's hurry up and collect the medicinal materials to cure my grandfather."

As he spoke, he took the jacaranda and walked forward.

Shen Mu and Jing Tian followed behind and acted as temporary bodyguards. Jing Tian not only wanted to be a bodyguard, but also Shen Mu's younger brother, following behind with bitterness and helplessness.

……

The group didn't go far, when they saw an inn in front of them, Jing Tian shouted: "It's getting late, let's stay overnight before leaving! The Xiaoyao Inn over there is very good! The price is also quite expensive , but we are bodyguards, so naturally you will pay for it, Missy!"

Xue Jian glanced at the inn not far in front, and snorted coldly: "Hmph! The scheme is on Miss Ben's head, okay! I will live with your boss in the upper room. If you are too poor, you can live in the stable."

Jing Tian smiled and said: "The stable is the stable, if there is an advantage, just take it!"

Shen Mu shook his head secretly, thinking: "This guy really likes to take advantage of things."

Seeing that Sedum was as thick as a city wall, Xue Jian gave Sedum a look, then pushed Sedum with disdain, like a tigress, "Lead the way ahead, hurry up!"

"Oh..." Sedum staggered from being pushed, but she didn't feel annoyed at all. Instead, she turned around and said with a smile: Hey!Let's discuss it, shall we?The stables can't save a little money, why don't I also live in the house?Ordinary ones are fine too, you both live in the upper house, and I live in the stable alone, so that if others see it, the lady will lose face, won't she? "

"Stop talking nonsense, let's go~~" Tang Xue's teeth were itchy when she saw that she was angry, and she kicked up again.

"Ouch..." Sedum hurriedly dodged this time, but pretended to be kicked, and hurriedly led the way and ran towards the inn.

When he came to the inn, Jing Tian was too tired to open his eyes, ran to the stable, lay down and fell asleep.But Shen Mu was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, so he wanted to go out and kill two hares to eat meat. Since the establishment of the foundation, he hasn't eaten much for more than three years, let alone meat. I really missed the smell of barbecue, so I walked out of the inn, shot two wild rabbits in the woods outside, lit a bonfire, and roasted the rabbit meat.

"You...you can't sleep either?"

At this time, a soft voice came, and Shen Mu turned his head to see that it was Tang Xuejian who was dressed in red.

In the middle of the night, such a beautiful woman, wearing a red dress, was wandering in the woods, and ordinary people would definitely be shocked.

Fortunately, Shen Mu was originally a cultivator of immortals, and his servants were either ghosts or spirits. Even if there were ghosts, it was only a matter of a sword.

It's just that Tang Xue saw that there was a trace of worry on her face at the moment, so she couldn't help saying: "Well, what are you doing here?"

"I... I'm here to collect dew." Then, he placed several porcelain cups in the forest and walked over.

"Dew?" Shen Mu was noncommittal, then handed a roasted rabbit meat to Xue Jian and asked, "What do you do with the dew?"

Seeing that Tang Xue didn't hesitate at all, she took the rabbit meat in Shen Mu's hand and smelled it, "Wow, it smells so good, thank you. I collect dew to use the dew in the forest to decoct medicine for grandpa."

"I don't think so, the dew is just an ordinary thing, and it doesn't actually have a healing effect." Shen Mu said lightly.

"Maybe..." Tang Xuejian nodded slightly, and said, "But I have a way to make Grandpa get better sooner."

"What way?" Shen Mu asked.

"Grandpa is sick because he worked too hard. He not only has to take care of me, but also takes care of the Tangjiabao. Therefore, I must shoulder the responsibility of Tangjiabao so that grandpa can get out of the body." With a trace of shyness, he bit his red lips and said, "But I think... I think if there is someone who can take care of the Tangjiabao with me, Grandpa should feel at ease."

Shen Mu looked confused, and said in his heart: "This is too fast. Could it be that after Lao Tzu established his foundation, his charm increased so much that even Tang Xuejian was attracted by Lao Tzu's charm?"

However, Shen Mu smiled lightly again, as if he had thought of something. He felt that Tang Xuejian probably wanted to have an extra powerful helper to frighten Tangjiabao's Xiaoxiao and help her manage Tangjiabao together, because Tang Xuejian As a woman, she can't convince the crowd at all, and those Xiao Xiaohui from Tangjiabao will take the opportunity to make trouble.

Seeing that Shen Mu was silent, Tang Xue said again: "Actually... Actually, I came out this time not entirely to find medicine for Grandpa, but to fulfill Grandpa's wish, to find a handsome man with extraordinary temperament and strong martial arts skills." , An upright man who can stand upright, come and help me take care of Tangjiabao...and you are the one in my heart."

"...I see." Shen Mu nodded noncommittally, and asked, "But how do you know that I am strong in martial arts and upright? Maybe I am a villain who does all kinds of evil."

Tang Xuejian quickly waved her hands and said, "How could that be? The first time I saw you, I thought you were an indomitable hero. My lady's vision must be right."

"...Miss Tang, it's overrated." Shen Mu's face was flat, but he thought without shame in his heart: "This girl's eyes are really accurate, and she can see this at a glance, she is really amazing."

"I don't know... I don't know what you want?" Tang Xuejian mustered up her courage and asked.

It was the first time for Shen Mu to be confessed by a woman like this, and it was Tang Xue who saw such a beautiful woman. Although there was no expression on her face, her heart was a little unbearable. It's not easy for a beautiful woman to confess her love without blushing.

And according to Tang Xuejian's words, her grandfather's illness was actually just a minor illness for Shen Mu, an alchemist, and Shen Mu only needed one pill to solve it.

So, he said: "Well, yes, I have a pill here, which should be able to cure your grandfather's illness."

As he spoke, he took out a small white porcelain bottle from his bosom and handed it to Tang Xuejian.

"Drug?!" Tang Xuejian took the small porcelain bottle in Shen Mu's hand, opened the cork, and smelled a faint medicinal fragrance overflowing, and said happily: "It's such a strong medicinal fragrance, I think it must be made of high-quality medicinal materials , it seems that Grandpa's illness is cured now... Amu, I really don't know how to thank you..."

"Ding dong, the host got acquainted with Tang Xuejian, gained Tang Xuejian's favor, and gained 2000 happiness points."

Seeing that Xuejian's eyes were flushed, Shen Mu waved his hands and said, "It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning. It's getting late, so let's go back to our rooms early to rest."

"En." Tang Xuejian stuffed the elixir into her bosom, nodded, stood up, patted a trace of dust on her dress, and went back to the inn with Shen Mu to rest.

But when the two left the woods, they didn't find a pair of red vicious eyes looking at them...
