Quick-travel system: The host is having a blast in the small world
Chapter 27 1. Ancient Dayan 23
After a while, Shen Qing woke up. Before he could react, Lin Dai said, "Are you awake? If you are, go and prepare the rabbit and roast it." Then she threw a dagger to him.
Shen Qing didn't expect that it was Lin Dai who saved him. Just as he was about to say, "Master Wuyou...", he was interrupted by Lin Dai, "Stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and prepare and roast the rabbit. I'm hungry."
Shen Qing had no choice but to get up obediently, and found that his internal injuries were actually half healed. Not only did the wounds stop bleeding, but they were also faintly scarred. He wanted to ask something but didn't. He picked up the rabbit and dagger and went to the river to deal with them.
After finishing the work, he came back and set up the rack to prepare to roast the rabbit. He felt his body and found that it was wet and there was no fire, so he asked Lin Dai: "Does Master Wuyou have a fire?"
Lin Dai thought for a moment and took out a lighter from her sleeve and threw it to Shen Qing. Shen Qing took it in his hand, looked through it for a while and asked, "How do I use it?"
Lin Dai knew he couldn't use it, and thought he could figure it out. Lin Dai walked over and took the lighter: "Look, hold it like this, press your thumb here, slide it hard, don't let go, light it, and let go, try it."
Shen Qing took the lighter and tried it a few times. He also got a fire. He continued to roast the rabbit. While roasting the rabbit, Shen Qing carefully studied the lighter. Finally, he was reluctant to give it back to Lin Dai. Seeing his reluctance, Lin Dai said generously: "You don't have to give it back to me. I'll give it to you."
As she spoke, Lin Dai quietly searched for seasonings in the mall. She couldn't forget the important things, otherwise the rabbit wouldn't taste good even if it was roasted. She bought a few small bottles of seasonings and threw them to him, saying, "Here are some seasonings. There are words on them. Put them in as you see fit."
Shen Qing looked at the seasoning bottle in his hand. He had never seen anything like this before, but it was still easy to know how to use it. He couldn't help but ask, "Are you really giving this to me?"
"Well, I've given it to you, but it's not a good thing! Hurry up and bake it well. We can talk about other things after you eat it." Lin Dai thought to herself, what's so good about a 1 dollar lighter? It's the cheapest thing.
About half an hour later, the rabbit was ready. Lin Dai and the system had already smelled the fragrance. Lin Dai pulled a leg and started eating, praising while eating: "Not bad, Lord Shen, I didn't expect you to have such a skill."
Shen Qing said politely: "I used to cook my own food when I was outside."
Lin Dai nodded and started eating. The little system was anxious beside her: "Sister, sister! How can I eat with someone here?"
Lin Dai just remembered that she had forgotten about the little guy, and said to Shen Qing: "Give me half of the rabbit, I'll keep it for later use."
Shen Qing didn't ask any more questions. He used a dagger to cut half of the rabbit and gave it to Lin Dai. Lin Dai took the rabbit, turned around and secretly gave it to the system to let him go to the space to eat it.
After a while, Lin Dai finished eating, took out wet tissues to wipe her mouth and hands, looked at Shen Qing and said, "Sir Shen, now you can tell me what happened to you?"
Shen Qing also put down the rabbit in his hand, wiped his mouth and said: "I went back to Qingyang County to explain the matter, and then I rushed to the capital to meet the emperor, and reported everything that Master Wuyou said to the emperor. The emperor was very happy and thought highly of Master Wuyou. We discussed the plan secretly, and the emperor ordered me to come to you quickly to inform you of the plan, and by the way, let me stay and work for Master Wuyou. The emperor thought that there were some things that Master Wuyou was afraid of being inconvenient to do, so I would do it."
Lin Dai nodded quickly and said in agreement: "Hey, you know what, I really need someone to do the work. I was planning to hire a servant, but luckily you are here. I will leave the cooking to you from now on."
Shen Qing's eyebrows jumped. That's it? Did Wuyou Gongzi only hear the last sentence he just said? Did he keep him just to cook? He was the eldest son of the Shangshu Mansion, but now he has become a cook.
Lin Dai looked at his stunned expression. Maybe he didn't expect that she kept him here just to cook. Well, yes, she said that on purpose. Then she continued to ask, "Then how did you get here despite being injured? The capital is quite far from here, isn't it? Are you traveling a little too fast?"
Shen Qing explained, "I don't know what happened. I just left the capital that day and was chased. After fighting with them for a while, I knew I was no match for them. I was injured a lot and thought I was going to die. At the critical moment, a white light suddenly appeared in my chest, and then I passed out. When I woke up, I was here."
"Oh, so that's how it is." If that was the case, Lin Dai knew why.
Seeing that Lin Dai was not surprised, Shen Qing asked, "Master Wuyou, do you know what happened?"
"You know, didn't I give you a jade pendant as a token of trust? You put it on your chest. It's not an ordinary jade pendant in the mortal world. You just need to know that it can save your life." Lin Dai said mysteriously. When she bought the jade pendant, she had considered some external factors, but she didn't expect to use it now.
Shen Qing took out the jade pendant and looked at it carefully. He was shocked. Since he met Master Wuyou, many things were beyond his understanding. Until now, he can be sure that Master Wuyou is definitely not a mortal. He is very likely to be the immortal mentioned in the picture book. But fortunately, Master Wuyou is on their side now. Now they have confidence in things that they didn't dare to think about before.
Seeing that Shen Qing had remained silent, Lin Dai asked, "By the way, are you no longer the county magistrate?"
Shen Qing also came back to his senses and said, "The emperor has sent other people to Qingyang County. Now I will follow you to do things."
"So what was the final plan you discussed? What did you decide to do?"
Shen Qing thought for a while and said, "It will be the Lantern Festival in about three months. The other three countries will send envoys to participate in the celebration. Except for the Female Reverend Country, the other two countries are eyeing our country covetously. Prime Minister Qin is colluding with foreign vassals and will definitely take some action. But we don't know what he plans to do yet."
Lin Dai frowned and said, "Do you know that Qin Yan is colluding with foreign vassal states?"
"Few people know about this. At present, only the emperor and I know about it. As for how many people on Prime Minister Qin's side know about it, we don't know. In fact, we only guessed and observed for a long time, and we have no evidence. Qin Yan is too cunning and very cautious. We can't find anything if we want to investigate him." Shen Qing continued: "It was because I secretly investigated him and he found out that I offended him. For my safety, the emperor sent me to Qingyang County as the county magistrate. After knowing that I returned to the capital, he believed that I had found out something, so he sent people to hunt me down."
Lin Dai shook her head and looked at him, "Oh, you are really pitiful. What do you want me to do?"
"The emperor wants you to help find evidence of Prime Minister Qin's treason and corruption." Shen Qing stared at Lin Dai, trying to read something from her face. He did see something, a look of disdain. Shen Qing hurriedly asked, "Master Wuyou, is there something wrong?"
Lin Dai said disdainfully: "That's it? So simple, a waste of talent." After hearing this, Shen Qing was almost choked. He wanted to say something but then he thought, forget it. For Master Wuyou, it was too simple.
"Let's do this for now. There are still three months left. I have something important to tell you right now. Do you know Qin Qi, the prefect of Jiangyang City, which is not far from here?"
"I've heard of him in the capital before, but I didn't know much about him. What's wrong with him? Is there something wrong with him?"
"It's a big problem. He's a member of the Qin family. On the surface, he's a good official and a good prefect, but behind the scenes, he does all kinds of evil things, such as trafficking in people, hiding young girls, and using young girls in his delusion of cultivating the elixir of immortality. Although Qin Qi is doing this, the ultimate mastermind behind it is Qin Yan." Lin Dai's tone was a little aggressive at this time.
When Shen Qing heard about using a young girl to make elixirs, he was shocked and furious, walking back and forth in anger.
Lin Dai looked at Shen Qing in confusion, not understanding why he was so angry. Although it was indeed an infuriating thing, judging from Shen Qing's expression, things didn't seem simple.
"Shen Qing, there's something wrong with you. Is there anything else?" Lin Dai stood up and walked to him and asked.
Shen Qing stared at Lin Dai for a while, thinking about whether he could tell Lin Dai. After a while, he sighed and said, "The last emperor of Great Yan, the grandfather of the current emperor Yan Di, was also obsessed with alchemy, but the previous emperor used virgin boys and girls to make the elixir. The culprit was Qin Yan. At that time, Qin Yan had just entered the court. He found a stinky Taoist priest from somewhere to seduce the previous emperor. In order to reward him, the previous emperor kept promoting him and rewarding him with gold, silver and treasures. In this way, the previous emperor kept eating the Taoist priest's elixir, and eventually his body was ruined. But I didn't expect that Qin Yan would change his method and still make elixirs for himself. He himself knew better than anyone that this alchemy did not exist at all."
Lin Dai suddenly realized that there was such a big melon in it. She nodded and thought about it and said, "Maybe he was blinded by the desire for power and money. Although he is now second to none, the fact is that there is no one in Dayan who can stand above him. He is reluctant to give up everything he has finally obtained. He doesn't want to give it up to others. He also doesn't want to die, so he finds various ways to cultivate the elixir of immortality."
Shen Qing nodded in agreement. After all, he and the emperor had seen Qin Yan's ambition for so long.
