An Xiyue frowned: "Piranha is dragon silk grass. The fragrance it emits is actually a kind of drug. Once people or animals inhale this fragrance, they will be stunned by it, and then they will eat them as prey. Fall, this is the most dangerous and special part of Dragon Silk Grass."
"Its stamens are milky white and filamentous. It should be the antidote we are looking for, but trying to get the antidote is almost like pulling out teeth from the tiger's mouth." An Xiyue said worriedly.
Nangong Yuanyi glanced at the piranha that was attacking them at a high speed, and sneered, with a confident and arrogant look in his eyes, as if everything around him was insignificant in his eyes, and said proudly: "Better than Speed, believe me, it is not as fast as my son, Xiao Yue'er, you just need to tell me which part of it I want to take."
Nangong Yuanyi comes to Nanshan every year, just to remember the flowers in his heart, so he naturally recognizes "Piranha" and often practices with them. However, he didn't know that it was also called dragon silk grass, let alone that the "saliva" in its mouth could save his life.
An Xiyue thought it was difficult, but she was stunned when she saw Nangong Yuanyi moving faster than the wind. She never expected that Nangong Yuanyi's figure seemed to turn into a tornado in front of her, and it suddenly disappeared. Entered into the bloody mouth of the piranha.
An Xiyue's heart clenched, her face turned pale, and she stared at his figure in a daze, as if her heart was about to jump out of her mouth in an instant, staring straight at all Nangong Yuanyi's movements.
…
Clearwater Town.
"Hurry, hurry, follow." The two groups of soldiers lined up on both sides in an orderly manner, filling the entire street.
I saw a luxurious carriage slowly stopping in the middle of the road, and a middle-aged man came out of it in a moment. The man was wearing official uniform and looked very impressive.
Suddenly, the people on the street were rushed to both sides of the street by the soldiers, and even the vendors who set up stalls rushed into the alley. At this time, the streets were clean, and someone had cleared them before the big shots came. The streets of Clearwater Town were cleared to avoid running into big shots.
Today, Qingshui Town is not as lively as in the past. The people in the town are all leaning on the windows and looking into the distance, talking about: "Yesterday, a wave of officers and soldiers came to Piaomiao Peak, why are there another wave today?"
"Something big is going to happen."
"Look at the formation, it seems that it has a lot of background, and the official arrogance is very big."
"He's a high-ranking official from Kyoto. Can he be less arrogant? But it looks like he's coming from a bad position."
"The people of the Guo family nodded and bowed to them. They were quite impressive."
"Piaomiao Villa and Yunwu Medicine Villa have not dealt with each other since Mo Xianxian married someone else two years ago. However, Mr. Mo still has the foresight and found Mr. Guo as his backer."
"Look, isn't it the head of the Guo family, Guo Qilin, who is following you? Why is he here too? Guo is the only royal merchant in Qingshui Town, and his family's medicinal business is conducted in the palace. Yeah, he has a lot of connections." Someone else commented.
A man wearing a purple robe introduced a middle-aged man in official uniform into Yunshangju with a smile. Yunshangju is the property of Guo Mansion and the best restaurant in Qingshui Town. The high-rise single-family restaurant occupies a very large area, stands tall and has extraordinary grandeur.
The interior of Yunshangju is luxuriously decorated. It has already closed its doors today to prepare for welcoming a certain big shot.
"Eldest Young Master, please." Guo Qilin said, bending down.
Then he glanced at his wife and said coldly: "Watch the tea."
Mo Xianxian, the proprietress of Yunshangju, also went to the battle in person, serving tea and water with a big belly. She had not seen her husband for many days. Ever since she received the letter from Guo Mansion, she had not slept a wink all night. .
The Guo family is mainly engaged in business. Mo Xianxian has only known since she married into the Guo family that every daughter-in-law in the Guo family must be smart and thoughtful. However, Mo Xianxian used to be the eldest lady of Yunwu Medicine Store. Her only mission She just wanted to learn medical skills well and shine on her family. Who would have thought of marrying into the Guo Mansion? Two years later, she had not even touched a silver needle. As soon as she entered the house, she was rushed to Qingshui Town to learn how to do business and manage a restaurant. Only then did Mo Xianxian think of it. In order to combine medicinal materials with food and make good medicines to attract customers, Yunshangju's business became prosperous. The Guo family was also very satisfied with her abilities, but they had no intention of taking her home. , it is difficult to see her husband Guo Qilin when she goes back occasionally.
I heard that she only needs to wait until she gives birth this time, and then she can return to the Guo Mansion. After all, her husband is now the head of the Guo family, and she is the head mistress. If she has another child, she can have a good rest and return to the Mansion to be a young mistress. .
When she heard that her husband was coming, Mo Xianxian got up very early to prepare meals. She specially chose a bright-colored dress and dressed herself up delicately. However, her belly was too big and she felt that she didn't look good in anything she wore. She also lost her temper for no apparent reason at the maid who was serving her.
At this time, Mo Xianxian stood beside Guo Qilin obediently and sensibly, occasionally glancing at the high-ranking officials from Kyoto. It was their luck and theirs that a merchant family like them could get to know the powerful people in the capital and make their business prosperous. Blessing.
"Have you found the person?" the middle-aged man asked, taking a sip of tea.
"Back to the eldest son, there are officers and soldiers guarding the corner of Piaomiao Peak. They are soldiers led by the fourth young master who is stationed by the Mengshui River. I have asked about it and found that the fourth young master led young master Ji up the mountain, but it has been a day and a night and he has not returned yet. .”
The middle-aged man sneered at the steward's mention of his fourth brother, with eyes full of disdain and disdain: "It's that bastard." If the Lin family hadn't had connections and found him a sea-hunting job by the Mengshui River, he wouldn't have even visited their home. Not even the watchdogs out there.
"Yes, he is now the water governor of Mengshui River." The servant replied, with great contempt for the fourth young master Lin Xianzhi in his eyes.
"Ji'er is here too?" The middle-aged man was obviously not very happy. Lin Xianzhi could just leave it to Lin Xianzhi to catch people.
"I heard that Young Master Ji sent people to burn the mountain at Piaomiao Peak, and the people from Piaomiao Villa came to open the way."
The middle-aged man's face was obviously much happy and he nodded: "As expected of my Lin Xuzhi's son, you have to use some means to deal with people like that."
"The eldest son is right. The young master is very smart. A tiger father has no son." The servant flattered Lin Xuzhi by the way.
Mo Xianxian stood obediently and listened with her ears pricked up. She heard that the official who came here had a very high position, Meng Shui Shui Du? Isn’t it just General Lin? Mo Xianxian, who often came to Yunshangju for dinner, thought to herself: "So they are a family. General Lin usually seems quite domineering, but I didn't expect that his eldest brother would look down on him so much."
