Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

To celebrate Xue Zhongzi's recovery, Master Xue suggested going to the town for a good time in the evening. "Last time we just took a quick look and did nothing. This time is different. We have to go out early and come back after the market is over!"

Xue Chongzi was still a little hesitant, so Jiang Xinxin said, "I heard that Gong Ziyu is about to start the Three Realms Trial. Who knows when he will be able to pass the first level? Why don't we go out and relax in advance?"

Xue Zhongzi nodded reservedly: "Indeed, Gong Ziyu is becoming more and more useless. I'm sure he will have to trouble us when he comes. It's reasonable for us to go out and get some fresh air first."

Mr. Xue rubbed his hands excitedly, and then pulled Jiang Xinxin and asked, "Miss Jiang, what should we prepare? Should we get a bigger bag?"

Jiang Xinxin shook her head. "Our daily food and drinks are all delivered from Qianshan, or we can get them directly from the Snow Palace. We don't need to buy any ingredients this time. I'll go to the pharmacy and see that some herbs can be used as spices in cooking, and they taste very good."

Xue Chongzi didn't care about being reserved anymore, and quickly made room for Jiang Xinxin, and handed her the pen and ink, "Miss Jiang, why don't you make a list first so that we can have an idea in mind. Otherwise, when we go out and see a lot of new things, we might forget them."

Of course Jiang Xinxin didn't need to prepare anything, but Xue Chongzi and Xue Gongzi were still thinking about the bad things that happened to them last time they went out, which made them not in the mood to go shopping, so after Jiang Xinxin casually put together some rouge and powder and the like, they turned around and went to prepare their purses.

As night fell, the three of them changed into dark blue outerwear and quickly reached the front mountain. However, because of what happened last time, they decided to change the route this time. However, they didn't expect that when passing by Shang Palace, they would run into Gong Shangjiao!

Gong Shangjiao's weapon is a sword, and he is extremely talented. He has already mastered the sword skills when he was in his early twenties, and is among the best among his peers. Therefore, many people in the world are in awe of him.

Such people are always on the edge of crisis. When Mr. Xue just leaked a little bit of his aura, he was noticed by him and followed him directly.

Seeing that he was coming with great momentum, Jiang Xinxin quickly led the man to a relatively secluded place and stopped.

"Master Jiao, we are from the Snow Palace in the back mountain. We came out today just to have some fun in the town. We have no other intentions."

Gong Shangjiao had passed the Three Realms Trial a few years ago, so he still remembered Master Xue, but Xue Chongzi had only recently recovered his adult form. He thought Xue Chongzi looked very familiar, but he didn't guess it was Xue Chongzi.

However, when he saw Mr. Xue with a woman, he immediately realized that this person must be Miss Jiang who had solved the problem of the miasma that continued to spread in the valley.

"Hello, Miss Jiang. The miasma in the valley was solved thanks to Miss Jiang. I will host you at Jiao Palace tomorrow. Please do me a favor, Miss Jiang."

Gong Shangjiao came up and bowed. Jiang Xinxin looked at his expression carefully. In fact, she could tell from his aura that this person was determined. Jiang Xinxin just felt that she was somewhat unlucky for not checking the almanac before going out today.

But the most important thing right now is to go out for a walk. Jiang Xinxin also clasped her hands and nodded in return, "Thank you very much for your hospitality, Master Jiao. I will take your place tomorrow."

Then the three of them said goodbye quickly so as not to waste any more time.

However, Gong Shangjiao looked at the direction they flew in, gritted his teeth and changed his defense in his mind again.

Gong Shangjiao went out for a stroll today, originally to check the defense of the palace gate. Originally, these things were always handled by Yugong, but he didn't expect that Yugong Zhiren and Shao Zhiren died together, and the only descendant Gong Ziyu was confused. He already knew that Wufeng's spies had sneaked into the palace gate, but he didn't remember the defense, so he had to use his prestige in the palace gate to temporarily take on this responsibility.

Gong Shangjiao was not a pedantic person. He could gather from the words of several elders that day that Zhiren should be equipped with the secret method to activate the Infinite Flowing Fire, so he understood why there was a rule in the palace that Zhiren could only stay inside the palace.

But he didn't quite understand why the environment in the back mountain was getting worse and worse as the miasma spread, and the elders had never mentioned moving away. However, seeing Young Master Xue sneaking out of the palace to play tonight did give him some more ideas.

He felt that the people in the back mountain might have thought about abolishing the rule that prohibits coming to the front mountain, but there was no suitable opportunity in the past. However, the situation at the palace gate is somewhat serious now. Perhaps this is the opportunity that the people in the back mountain have been waiting for.

After jumping down from a mountain wall that is more than ten feet high, the entrance and exit of the palace are inside these straight mountain walls. The secret passage is also filled with various mechanisms and poisons. If there is no special person to lead the way, there is almost no way back.

But given the cultivation level of Jiang Xinxin and Xue Chongzi, climbing a cliff that is more than ten feet high is just a piece of cake for them. Only Master Xue looks like a weakling compared to them, and needs two people to carry him up and down.

This time, everyone quickly put aside the previous encounter with Gong Shangjiao. Xue Chongzi and Xue Gongzi were dazzled by what they saw along the way, and almost believed whatever Jiang Xinxin said.

This town is very prosperous, otherwise there wouldn't be so many brothels. As the weather gets warmer, the market closes later and later. Jiang Xinxin takes Xue Chongzi and Xue Gongzi to eat. Before they reach the end of the street, they already feel a little full. Then Jiang Xinxin stuffs a hawthorn pill into each of them. Xue Gongzi thinks the pill tastes very good with a moderate sweet and sour taste, and pulls Jiang Xinxin's sleeve to ask for another one.

Jiang Xinxin couldn't stand his puppy-like appearance and simply gave him the purse.

Xue Zhongzi couldn't stand Mr. Xue's conspicuous appearance, and complained: "Don't you see how old you are? The fat boy looked cute when he acted like that just now, but you look a bit hateful."

Young Master Xue thought that Xue Chongzi was just jealous. After the two quarreled for a while, he felt his stomach felt a lot better and seemed to be able to continue eating. Then they made up quickly. Jiang Xinxin began to feel that she was a little redundant.

Apart from being a little naive in his daily life, Mr. Xue is actually a very good person. Not only does he have positive values, but he is also very filial. Whenever he goes out for fun, he even thinks of buying some gifts for Elder Xue. He and Xue Chongzi picked and chose in the silver shop, and in the end he bought a peace locket and packed a lot of cakes from the restaurant. Only then did he go back very satisfied.

Jiang Xinxin went to the pharmacy to purchase supplies and bought a lot of spices. Some of them, like cardamom and cloves, were not in stock in large quantities in the pharmacy, so she specially left a lot of silver and asked the shopkeeper to help buy some for her.

Xue Chongzi and Xue Gongzi were stunned by the large and small packages of medicinal herbs she brought. They had never known that many of these things could be used as spices in cooking.
