I have a little bit of talent

Chapter 25: A young man wanders at night and sees a tree spirit. Humans and demons are no different

"Come on, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Fang,"

"This business trip is a bit dangerous. If it weren't for the help of Master Fang, it would be really dangerous!"

Boss Xie came to his senses and hurriedly introduced Fang Mu to his family.

"So you are my benefactor, Xiaocheng, come and kowtow to me!"

When the woman heard this, her face changed at first, and then she quickly pulled the boy up to kowtow to Fang Mu to express her gratitude.

"This is impossible."

Fang Mu was not willing to accept it. He raised his hands and used a gentle force to steadily support the bodies of the mother and son, preventing them from kneeling down.

"Boss Xie and I are destined to be together. We came from Tongyang together and we are like good friends. How can I accept such a great gift?"

"How can you not accept the life-saving grace of Mr. Fang?"

Boss Xie did not stop his wife from saluting, thinking it was natural.

"I love to play and eat. If you really want to thank me, why not treat me to some delicious food and take me to some fun things? If you keep doing this, I'm leaving!"

Fang Mu couldn't bear to see this scene. It was much more tiring than fighting with Mo Chenzi.

Seeing Fang Mu was determined to do so and threatened to leave, the woman had no choice but to give up and just pulled the child to bow. The boy was also very well-behaved, following his mother's bow, and looking at Fang Mu with his big round eyes.

"You are joking, benefactor. Now that you are here, treat this place as your own home. Master, the door is not a place to talk. Please come in and have a cup of hot tea first."

Mrs. Xie is not like an ordinary woman. She is quite opinionated.

"Yes, yes, it's my fault. Let's go inside first!" Boss Xie slapped his forehead.

After instructing a few cooks and servants to unload the goods from the cart and move them to the warehouse, Boss Xie led everyone into the Tongbao Trading Company.

The Tongbao Trading Company has two courtyards, the outer courtyard is where the Tongbao Trading Company's shops, warehouses, etc. are located, while the inner courtyard is where the Xie family lives.

Boss Xie and his family took Fang Mu through the outer courtyard and came to the main hall of the Xie family. They hurriedly asked Fang Mu to sit down.

"Hero Fang, please wait a moment. You have worked hard on the journey. Dinner is ready at home and will be here soon."

Mrs. Xie handed over a cup of hot tea, then found a seat to sit down with the boy.

Fang Mu took the teacup and thanked him.

After just two sips, several servants brought wine and food to the table. Although the quantity was not large, the dishes looked very good and were obviously prepared by a master chef.

Seeing that there were delicious foods, Fang Mu didn't hesitate. Without waiting for Boss Xie to invite him, he put down his teacup and came to the table.

"It's just a simple meal, please don't despise it, Mr. Fang. We have been traveling all day, so it's not suitable for drinking. We must have a good drink tomorrow."

Seeing Fang Mu's actions, Boss Xie laughed instead, looking like a naughty teenager.

……

……

After dinner, as the sky darkened, Boss Xie personally took Fang Mu to a room in the backyard to rest.

"Master Fang, you have been traveling a lot these past few days and have not had a good rest. I will not disturb you any more."

"Boss Xie, there's no need to call me hero, it's too formal, just call me by my name."

Boss Xie laughed when he heard this and said, "It's not polite to call you by your name directly. So, from now on, I will call you Brother Fang, and you can call me Brother Xie."

"Then Brother Xie, please go and accompany your wife. If you delay for too long, your sister-in-law might get angry."

"Haha, then I'm leaving. Brother Fang, have a good rest and see you tomorrow."

Boss Xie achieved his goal of getting closer to his wife, so he didn't stay any longer. He missed his wife very much after not seeing her for many days. He turned around and left quickly, his steps much more brisk than when he was traveling up the mountain.

Fang Mu watched Boss Xie walk away, closed the door and sat on the edge of the bed. He suddenly took out a pill and examined it carefully.

This elixir is exactly what was left inside the alchemy furnace in the valley when Fang Mu took it away!

It was not convenient to take a closer look as he was with the caravan during this period. There was no one else around at this time, so Fang Mu immediately took it out from the mustard seed space to check.

Fang Mu had studied medicine in Huichun Hall for many years and was quite familiar with many medicinal materials and methods of alchemy. This was the first time he saw an elixir made by humans. Although he felt extremely disgusted, he was also a little curious.

"Red blood grass, purple water lily, poison sword grass... these herbs all have the effect of blood clotting. With the addition of human blood, they become one. This pill must have been made by a master of medicine!" Fang Mu took a sniff and immediately analyzed the composition of the blood pill.

"This blood pill certainly has the effect of improving qi and blood, but after taking it, the blood and qi will be mixed, and the person who uses it will never be able to enter the blood exchange realm in his lifetime."

"What's more, using humans to make elixirs is extremely unscrupulous. Once discovered, they will be wanted by the government and despised by the world. The person behind this must be mentally ill to do this."

Fang Mu was a little confused. Judging from the pill, the person who could do this must not be an ordinary person, and such a person should not need the effect of this blood pill.

For a moment, Fang Mu was confused and had no clues.

"Forget it. Tomorrow I will ask Brother Xie about Huaicheng first, and then ask Lu Chen about the progress of the investigation of the file."

Fang Mu didn't think about it any more. He really hadn't had a good night's sleep these past few days, so he simply lay down with his clothes on and took a rest.

"I have to keep an appointment at midnight. This tree spirit senior might know something."

The room gradually fell into silence, with only the sound of Fang Mu's breathing being heard.

…………

At the same time, thousands of miles away, in the capital of the Great Zhou,

Fang Zheng was holding a letter in his hand and released a white pigeon to deliver the message.

After reading the contents of the letter, his brows furrowed deeply.

"How could such a bad thing happen when a person is refining an elixir? Fortunately, I saw it. It is a bit risky for me to be in Huaicheng."

"My father asked me to observe in the academy. Could this be related to this matter?"

Fang Zheng was extremely shocked. This capital city was the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the academy in the capital city was a holy place for Confucian and Taoist practice.

Among them are countless masters, not only those who practice body and qi, but also many who have entered the realm of primordial spirit.

If this matter is really related to the academy, then it’s a really big problem!

Fang Zheng moved his fingers slightly, and invisible true energy was emitted, which directly turned the letter into powder and scattered it all over the ground.

Walking out of the room and looking at the lights of the streets outside, Fang Zheng somehow recalled the time when he and Fang Mu were young in Yangzhou City. His eyes were clear and there was a smile on his lips.

"The days back then were joyful, and before I knew it I had also started practicing, and experienced this evil thing."

"With that person in Huai City, there won't be any chaos. I'm just afraid that my younger brother will suffer."

"I hope those people can open their eyes. Otherwise, I won't forgive them even if they don't mention my father and mother!"

A cold light flashed in Fang Zheng's eyes.

"Our family will not tolerate bullying by outsiders!"

…………

Three bright moons shine on the earth, slowly rising as time goes by, and finally reaching the zenith in the sky.

Midnight has arrived!

Fang Mu pushed open the door on time, and in a flash he had passed the gate of Xie's house and came to the street. Then he moved like a ghost, and in a few breaths he arrived in front of the old locust tree.

Fortunately, it was late at night and there were no pedestrians on the street, otherwise I would have been scared to death and screamed that I saw a ghost.

This old locust tree is so big that even dozens of people gathered together to hug it.

When Fang Mu arrived, the originally intact tree trunk suddenly opened up, revealing a black hole about two meters in size.

An old voice came into Fang Mu's ears.

"Fang family boy, come in and talk."

Fang Mu bowed first, then walked straight in.

As Fang Mu passed through, the black hole quickly closed and disappeared, returning to its normal appearance.
